It has been around many years and survived a few hurricanes along the way. Here are a few photos. Oh, yum! For more information visit their website http://www.lakingsconfectionery.com/

I remember having coffee there on an early shivery February day, and the rain was coming down on the cobblestone street out front (or was it brick?), the long mirror reflecting everything back, and it was such a nice moment, just sitting there with the refills of pecan coffee, and my son trying his hand at the he-man arm wrestling thing they had.
