Not every great late date ends with another drink. Breka Bakery and Cafe on Davie Street is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, which is a fact that carries quiet power at 2am when someone floats the idea of cake. The room is warm and bright, stacked with fresh donuts, towering cakes, cookies and proper coffee at whatever hour you wander in. It is the most wholesome possible end to an evening: sit down, split a slice of something tall and excellent, talk until the sugar wears off, then talk some more. No reservation. No closing time. No one is counting your table turns or calculating how long you've been sitting there. The only decision is the cake or the donut, which is not really a stressful decision.
