Herman Nestler, 78, reopened his former bakery on South Front as a daytime hangout for local men who play pinochle and dominoes. Regulars bring snacks and small payments to cover utilities while Nestler displays a wine stash and baking memorabilia. The space mixes hobby shop and bird-cleaning duties with occasional cooking.
