"Third Cliff Bakery started out as a pop-up cart (aka the “Third Cliff Trike”) at the Egleston Farmers Market in 2015. The bakery only opened in its sunny, permanent corner spot in Jamaica Plain in 2020, but has quickly established itself as a neighborhood staple. Third Cliff, which is owned by Meg Crowley, is known for its ever-changing menu and unique spins on classic French pastries such as the kimchi cheddar croissants and lavender kouign amann. They even have vegan laminated pastry offerings, like the orange and cardamom morning bun. The espresso drinks are exceptional." - Katie Draisen
