Mariposa Bakery at 424 Massachusetts Avenue is a gem, renowned for making everything from scratch. While the chairs might not be homemade, every delectable treat you savor is meticulously crafted with love. Their homemade lemonade is a crowd favorite, perfectly balancing the tartness and sweetness of freshly squeezed lemons. The bakery’s Sunrise Sandwich is another must-try, served on a pretzel roll and packed with eggs, cheese, turkey, bacon, tomato, greens, and pesto aioli—creating a flavor combination that’s simply outstanding.

As you step inside, the inviting aroma of freshly baked goods welcomes you. The bakery's warm and cozy atmosphere is further enhanced by the captivating artwork adorning the brick walls, making it a feast for both the taste buds and the eyes. Each piece of art adds to the charm, creating a space that feels both homey and unique. Mariposa Bakery isn’t just about food; it’s about an experience that lingers long after you’ve left.
