La Dolce Vita Bakery

La Dolce Vita Bakery is in downtown Bryson City, right across from the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad station. It's bright and welcoming, with seating inside and out and free wifi. Seats can fill up at busy times.

The lattes are named for local landmarks. The Firetower has chocolate, cinnamon and cayenne, and the Banana Fontana has real banana and caramel. The bagels are fresh-baked. Try the Spicy Southerner with homemade pimento cheese, egg and bacon, or the Mount LeConte on a sun-dried tomato bagel. There are loaded grits, a quinoa hummus wrap and salads, with plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. Desserts include gelato and peanut butter cheesecake.
