More than just a bakery, they've renovated this new location, and it is now a contemporary diner. Locals have been eating at Liliha Bakery for decades. They have signature grilled butter rolls that are to die for, they come with a special dipping sauce, which they now sell, and they also sell their pancake batter, because its that GOOD!
