Recess Coffee and Baked Goods

Locals’ pick

Small coffee-and-bakery spot on Black Mountain Avenue... espresso, croissants, and whatever came out of the oven that morning. Easy first stop before the shops. Closed Tuesdays for recess.

Neng Jr.'s Locals’ pick

Book early or plan on missing it. Hardest reservation in town right now, and it earns it. The Filipino menu is bold and personal, nothing watered down for a wider crowd.

Eat & Drink

Hole Doughnuts

Doughnuts fried to ORDER, so they hit warm and a little crackly at the edges. Small menu, done exactly right. Beat the line.
