Before you head over
Practical planning tips for timing your visit and navigating peak morning hours.

Arrive earlier in the morning for the best pastry selection, as popular baked goods can run low near closing time.
Reserve Ahead or Expect Busy Morning Queues
Tables can fill up quickly and carry reservation time limits during peak breakfast hours, so reserve ahead or be prepared for a short queue.
Check In at the Counter for Dine-In Seating
Takeaway and dine-in lines can mingle near the counter entrance; confirm table seating with the front-of-house staff upon arrival.
