The Michelin Guide's review
This is "casual" as done by the meticulous chef Patrick O'Connell (of the Inn at Little Washington) whose latest project is a cafe and bakery located in a converted 1950s garage. The setting now sports a white-painted brick exterior and al fresco dining; while inside it's all country chic with an inviting marble bar counter, cozy wood tables, beamed ceiling and walls enhanced with still life canvases - all warmed by a stone-fronted fireplace.The menu offers broad appeal and all of it is executed with finesse. A sandwich of shaved Champagne-brined ham and Comté cheese on a pillowy onion roll is a lovely midday meal; while Julia Child's beef Bourguignon is a tempting option come dinnertime. Treat yourself anytime with sweets from the bakery, like the wedge of bourbon chocolate pecan pie.
