Merridee's Breadbasket

"We've never encountered a pimiento cheese sandwich outside the South. But it's a favorite from the Mississippi River to the Carolina Lowcountry."
Michael Stern






"Fruit turnovers are well-blanketed with sugary icing."
Michael Stern



"Merridee's bread repertoire includes egg bread, oatmeal bread, Viking bread (wholegrains, wheatberries, flaxseed, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds), French bread, raisin-cinnamon, and cinnamon streusel. The array of cakes, braids, cookies, and braids is staggering."
Michael Stern



"Where the locals eat"
Michael Stern



"The breakfast pastries at Merridee's include such exotica as coconut rolls, cinnamon raisin biscuits, and chocolate butterflies, as well as traditional sweet rolls, muffins, sticky buns, and fruit turnovers."
Michael Stern



"As if pecan pie isn't rich enough, this one adds chocolate to the formula."
Michael Stern



"A breakfast crescent is tender dough (nothing like a flaky croissant), filled with ham and cheese. Like all the food at Merridee's, it comes in a bread basket."
Michael Stern



"Good espresso!"
Michael Stern



"The biscuit is light and fluffy and the sausage is good, but we prefer Merridee's biscuits smothered with gravy."
