Ten years ago we parked a little cart on the Esplanade and hoped someone would stop. A few people did, then a few more, and by the second winter the same faces were turning up in the rain.
Those regulars are why we have four walls now. We still know most of them by name and by order, and we still make everything sweet by hand, early, before the doors open.
On the main road in Sumner, across from the beach. Free parking out the back.
