Café d’Avignon

Café d’Avignon is a bakery café in Essex Market that sells bread, pastries, sandwiches, and coffee. The selection includes baguettes, focaccia, and sourdough, along with bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches and ham and Gruyère croissants. The ordering area is small, but there is spacious open seating on the upper level of Essex Market, and you can ask for the sourdough to be cut in half. Wait times run long on weekends.
