Avoid unless you want to be spoken to like a second class citizen. I was visiting the area, I did a quick Google search and found this bakery.

Very friendly, happy to answer my silly touristy questions and busy serving what appeared a constant stream of happy customers I would thoroughly recommend a visit and look forward to going back next time we are...
