People who want to eat at Sweet Mimi's Cafe and Bakery often have to wait for a table for up to an hour and, amazingly, nobody minds. White and clean with a pastry display case and a row of jams as the only decorations, this downtown eatery is popular for its delicious menu that changes daily. Everything is made with seasonal, local, fresh ingredients, from farm eggs to garden herbs.
Challah bread and fresh ciabatta come daily from Brooklyn, syrups come from Michigan, and they work with a number of local farms for sausages, chicken, dairy, and much more. Their breakfast sandwiches are fantastic – try the Italian Sandwich with prosciutto, eggs, mozzarella, spinach, and pesto on crunchy ciabatta. Grab one of the oversized chocolate chip cookies Sweet Mimi’s is famous for on the way out.
