The Model Bakery - St. Helena

If you're looking for a casual spot to grab your morning coffee at 6 AM, look no further than The Model Bakery in Saint Helena. This charming place welcomes you with the delightful aroma of freshly brewed coffee and an array of golden pastries and breads, all made fresh each day! That's right—everything you see in the display case is homemade, from muffins to danishes, croissants, English muffins, bear claws, fritters, and cinnamon rolls. The selection is impressive! The prices are quite reasonable, making it an excellent choice even on a Monday morning. The bakery has a small, cozy atmosphere with a rustic 1950s country charm that’s sure to brighten your day. If you’re friendly with the staff, you might even be treated to a complimentary treat! I enjoyed a delicious carrot cake muffin topped with roasted coconut flakes that was simply divine. They also offer a small deli and daily specials; I tried the breakfast sandwich special and was very satisfied.
