Pull up to the Be Free Café in Virginia Beach in the morning and you'll smell it before you see it: pastry, baked fresh in-house, with new daily specials every day.

Laminated and flaky

The laminated case rotates through a flaky croissant, a chocolate croissant, a ham and cheddar croissant, a gooey cream cheese danish, and sweet or savory croissant specials that change with what the bakers are feeling.
