Vinal Bakery~ If you Love English Muffins go Here Now!

By now I'm sure you know I love Parlor Sports.  It's the Cheers of Inman Square, complete with delicious nachos, bartenders who put the UConn game on before you even get there, check in on your health, and congratulate you on your big hike last weekend.  Said bartenders will even come in five hours before normal opening to make sure us US Soccer fans have a place to cheer on the "gals" during the World Cup!  (I promise, I'm getting to the English Muffins.)   I'm very loyal to Parlor Sports so when my favorite bartender's girlfriend opened up Vinal Bakery in Union Square I had to head over and support the shop.

Vinal is located on the other side of Union, near the "secret" Target (hands down the most pleasant Target experience you will have, it's never crowded, ever!)  It's a small shop, but I think about 15-20 people can find seats.  There's white subway tile, a chalkboard, and some fabulous mint green accent paint.  Right now they can offer you views of a cement truck, a backhoe, or a crane at any given time because all of Union is under construction and it's kind of a mess.  (There's been a great Instagram story back and forth between Vinal and Parlor Sports trying to one up the other with the construction vehicles outside of their places.)

Vinal specializes in all things English Muffins.  There are five main varieties and one special version each day and many options for dressing up your muffin.  I opted with the traditional bacon, egg, and cheese but there were plenty of sweet and savory options.  They also serve a full line of coffee drinks.  The sandwich did not disappoint....

and neither did the view of the crane 😜

If you like English Muffins and/or construction views, I highly recommend this place.  I'm already looking forward to going back!
