Of course there will be some important things missing from a small island in the middle of a big ocean. A top-notch European bakery/coffee shop (and sadly McDonald's and Burger King) is not one of them. Every cyclist on this rock rejoices!
The shop sits in Antigua, a small "town" conveniently located in the middle of the island and on almost every bike route, and doesn't look like much from the outside, basically a terra cotta storefront with a plate-glass window displaying a fake multi-tiered wedding cake covered in dust, but inside, gastronomic paradise:

Spanish "ho-hos" bottom left |

French-ish stuff |

Almond shortbread dead center |
And every cyclist on this rock stops by:
 |
"One of everything please" |
 |
A coffee soothes the wind-burned soul |
As long as they keep producing these baked goods and pulling these espressos, they can neglect their store front as much as they want.
