Don't be surprised if when you arrive the line is out the door and around the corner! This little bakery is a MUST stop on any trip to Central Oregon. I highly recommend the apple fritters (big enough for sharing!) and their savory scones. Grab a loaf of bread to go, it makes the most delicious grilled cheese sandwich. Yum!

Que faut-il apporter ?
Bring Your Layers!
The High Desert of Central Oregon provides 300+ days of sunshine per year but don't let that fool you, it can get mighty cold depending on the time of year! If you're visiting in the summer months, it will be warm during the day. So pack your shorts and a tank top, bring sunscreen, and don't forget a swimsuit! Even in the summer months, it can get chilly, so don't get caught without a sweatshirt nearby. In the winter freezing temperatures and snow is common. So bring your warm boots, pack a jacket, and layer up with a beanie!
