Picnic

Picnic, by the owners of The Raven Grill, feels homey, like a hybrid of the traditional neighborhood bakery, sandwich shop, and coffee shop. The seating inside is one giant—and we mean giant—picnic table, but no matter, the whole point is to enjoy this stuff outdoors. The specialty is the box picnic lunches, which include a sandwich, fruit salad, chips, a cookie and a pickle. The counter holds a map of good picnic spots that includes parks both near (the Cullen Sculpture Garden and Miller Outdoor Theatre) and far (the Water Wall). Cookies, cakes, brownies, and scones are baked daily in-house as is the homemade breads, including the special bread, which changes daily. Try to make it on Monday for Cinnamon Raisin or on Tuesday for Cranberry Pecan.
