Set amidst the floral, garden, and gift selections of Bachman's flagship store, is one location of Patrick's Bakery & Cafe (6010 Lyndale Ave.). After looking over the cases with a variety of pastries and other goodies, customers order at the counter and then relax at a table among the flowering plants until the food is served. It is unexpectedly pleasant considering you're dining in a garden center!
Patrick's promotes themselves on their website: The cafe features an amazing selection of Patrick Bernet's made-fresh daily selections of French breads, baguettes, country bread, 7-grain breads, petites and grandes boules; and speciality breads like Tomato Provencal and Roasted Red Pepper. Croissants, pain au chocolat, apricot soleil and glistening pineapple danish (Patrick's personal favorite) will be available every day. The individual pastries offered are irresistible. You'll find wonderful standards, like eclairs, napoleons, fruit tarts and creme brulees, and tantalizing Patrick's specialties that are beyond description, including the Trilogy Chocolate cake, Feuillantine Pralinee and Tiramisu.

I wish we would have arrived there earlier. It would have been fun to eat there...
