    Bread & Cie has been Hillcrest's bakery-cafe for decades and it stays reliable in a way the newer, smaller shops can't. The bread is very good rather than exceptional, and the sandwiches make it a full lunch stop.

    Local tip: One of the few good bakeries with real seating and all-day availability.
