Corner Bakery

those almond croissants hit different when they're still warm from the oven. corner bakery on preston road knows this timing matters, which is why you'll find locals timing their visits around the morning bake. the pastry case here changes throughout the day as things sell out, but that's part of the appeal. no endless rows of day-old danish sitting under heat lamps. when something's gone, it's gone. the coffee holds its own against the baked goods without trying to steal the show, which takes some restraint in a town where everyone's chasing the perfect shot. plano might not be known for its food scene, but places like this prove there's good stuff happening if you know where to look. best move is getting there before 9am for the full selection.
