"Atticus Bookstore Cafe has charmed downtown shoppers since 1975, when it opened on the first floor of the Yale British Art Museum, but the bakery program has truly flourished over the past several years thanks to the company’s commitment to baking exclusively with regional whole grains from the likes of Maine Grains. Whether you sit inside with a new book, take your order to go while you wander Yale’s old campus, or even head to the newer Atticus Market for its copious outdoor seating in the East Rock neighborhood, you’ll find enticing rotating options, from lemon tarts and croissants to pumpernickel rye to meatball or mushroom sandwiches on ciabatta slabs." - Stasia Brewczynski
