Inside Golden Wheat Bakery: the pastry case, the espresso counter and the wooden counter engraved with three wheat stalks

The shop

A corner of E Cherry that smells like sugar and coffee.

Three wheat stalks burned into the wood counter, an orange awning over the sidewalk tables, a case that fills up before the door opens. Ten stools, two big tables, and a chalkboard that has been redrawn more times than anyone has counted.

  • Eat in or take away

    Tables inside, wrought-iron chairs out front under the awning.

  • Bring your own cup

    Twenty-five cents off your coffee. It says so on the board.

  • Whole cakes to order

    Six, eight and ten inch, plus cheesecake and fruit cheesecake.

  • Open every day

    Doors at seven, Monday through Sunday. Holidays go up on the board.

Chalkboard drawing of a dachshund made of bread crust leaning over a latte, with the note: bring your cup, 25 cents off

Above the espresso machine

Somebody drew a dachshund out of bread crust, gave it a latte, and it never left.

The board changes. The dog stays. Bring your own cup and it will cost you twenty-five cents less.
