Breadzilla

With a big bench and blankets to sit on outdoors, this is a revered takeout place with bagels for breakfast and an inventive lunch menu that changes every day and is available from 11:30 to 2:30 or till 1:30 on Sundays. The scones, muffins, and cakes are enticing, as are the house-made breads. Try the Gruyere cheese bread or take home the cinnamon swirl for breakfast. Different soups and prepared foods like  chicken quesadilla or rice pudding change every day and there are cheeses, focaccias, and a mini meatloaf. Everything is made from scratch with the lunch menu on its Web site. Watch out for tongue-in-cheek posted warnings.
