Pleasant surprise! Last minute lunch option due to my flight being delayed. Welcoming staff quickly sat us- party of 3- and service staff was prompt. We really out did ourselves ordering- tavern chips, corn chowder, sandwiches, lavender infused martinis and ended with double chocolate cookie with a scoop of ice cream! All delicious!! Atmosphere was inviting and there was no rushing off once we finished our meal. The wood fire oven in the corner was busy the entire time we were there...next time, pizza for sure. read more

First Impression, very industrial design and felt like a very high end Panera Bread (no offense! ) but in the small business way that offers and authentic flare. I did not get to see the display case as pictured on the other reviews so I had to guess abut everything. In terms of prices, I would say that they are on the higher side ( paid $11.99 for a SLICE if carrot cake) and I almost had and $80 bag. I tried each ( ch.chip and double chocolate) cookie, the cheesecake, carrot cake, and the bread pudding. My most favorite was the carrot cake and the least favorite was the cookies. read more

First time visiting. It's a cute little spot. Our server was great. It was freezing in the restaurant. I had the Charleston chicken sandwich and the crab corn chowder. The chowder definitely had a lot of crab meat. The fries were cold. The pizza looked delicious. I definitely recommend them. read more

This is our second time here. The first time we came they gave us complimentary food to our table for it being our first time. We felt so welcomed and loved. Everyone is always so nice and pleasant. They've added more food options to the menu since the last time we were here and they definitely made the right decisions for the restaurant as a whole. Will start coming here for happy hour and more. Thank you for the beautiful decor and ambiance! read more

Came back again after a while and gave some lunch items a try with the same friend. She got the roasted mozzarella and tomato panini and I got the Calabrian chicken Alfredo. Tha panini was very small and had the smallest two slices of tomato possible. It was mostly bread and lettuce. She stated at the greenbrier location it was infinitely better and more filling but she did like the soup. My pasta had potential but it came out barely warm and the chicken had a questionable texture. There was definitely spice but a lack of overall seasoning, this was a new menu item so I'd say it may need tiny more work but the potential is there. If I return, I may try the pizza. I was sincerely hoping for a better experience with the food the next time around but maybe we just had a one off both times? Service was good and ambiance is still nice to earn two stars just not sure of the food still. read more

First time trying this brunch spot and I will disclose that breakfast is my all time favorite meal. Went on a Sunday morning and it was packed inside luckily didn't have to wait we were seated immediately I could tell from our waitress that she was having an off day just by her behavior however she still treated us like valued guests. It was on the loud side so if you plan to go in for more than just eating I suggest coming at a less busy time. This waffle was more on the soft and fluffy side rather than crispy which was a different take to your ordinary waffle but I did quite like it. The whipped cream I wasn't too much of a fan just because it didn't taste like anything I'd prefer topping it with cool whip haha. I was thankful for them carrying sugar free syrup since you're already downing a decent amount of it already. Round 2 will be the pancakes they looked massive can't wait to visit again! Highly recommend this place read more

Baker's Crust - Belgian Waffle - Bakeries Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

I went here on a Monday afternoon around 2pm, we were seated immediately in the main dining area. There were a lot of people here but it wasn't too loud so the ambiance was nice. My partner ordered a burger with a fried egg on it and said it was cooked to perfection ( he ordered it to be cooked medium ). I ordered the chicken mozzarella panini , pasta salad , and a Caesar salad. The panini was super good however I did ask for a side of aioli as it was lacking some moisture. The salad was fresh and the pasta salad was good as well. Our server was very attentive and checked on us frequently. Personally I think I like the lunch better than the breakfast. read more

The best thing I love about this place is its coffee mug. They are very unique and keep the coffee hot for a good amount of time. Swanky Benedict: It's like chicken and waffles but fried chicken on a biscuit and bacon with hollandaise sauce. The potatoes were really crunchy and good! Shakshouka: Everything complemented each other very nicely, and the dish was very delicious. I thought there would be more toast. Two pieces weren't enough, and it's more of a small portioned breakfast than the other dishes on their menu. One thing I have to note is that both of the foods were a little cold. I don't know which end it went wrong, but I hope it doesn't happen for future customers. read more

Went to Bakers Crust in Norfolk to celebrate a birthday, with some girlfriends. I had been there before for lunch (a while ago) so I was excited to try dinner. Nice clean and quiet atmosphere. Option of table or booth. Walked in with no wait. Our service was not so great. Our waitress seemed annoyed and it felt like she didn't want to be there. We had a few questions about the menu and we really felt like we were bothering her. Food came out quickly and was good. Nothing superb, but good. We had tavern chips, pizza, salads, and desserts How did I forget pics ‍. The lemon bar was good but the icing on the carrot cake was extra sweet. We had a good time and I'll go back again. read more

This restaurant was very lovely was lightly packed, but the atmosphere in the ambience was amazing. The server was engaged the whole time they had color-coded plates for the gluten-free menu and asked me ahead of time if it was a choice or an allergy and they respected my allergy and made sure I didn't get any gluten Prices were fair and everything went amazing. I will be coming back. read more

We stopped here while traveling to enjoy a leisurely brunch before heading to the airport. This was the perfect place to relax! Everything from the seating and ambience to the friendly service made it a comforting experience. The food was delicious! I loved that they had a full gluten free menu with many different options. The sweet tea had the perfect balance of light sweetness and great flavor of tea. We arrived early on a holiday, so it wasn't very busy in the first photo. By the time we left, it became busy. They also have nice outdoor seating with big umbrellas. It was beautiful! Thanks for a great experience! read more

I was in the area for a quick Yelp Elite event. I had my son with me and he was having a rough day, so I decided to have some one on one time with him instead of just heading back to Poquoson. So we walked across the parking lot go Baker's Crust it was a nice day outside so we were able to sit outside where it was pretty quiet. It was the perfect setting to sit and connect. We were seated promptly. The hostess was kind and helpful. She sat us down and soon after the waitress came out with a other waiter who was being trained. They both did a wonderful job the entire time we were there. We were treated to a sampling of their tomato cheese soup and potato chips. That was just awesome! I loved being able to sample some of their go to menu items for others. I ordered the French onion soup, chicken shawarma pita sandwich with a side of pasta salad. The soup was fantastic!!! The pasta salad was great. I was pleasantly surprised. It was not too heavy and I loved the pasta they chose. The pita sandwich was large! I had a few bites and brought the rest home for dinner for my husband. He said it was amazing and would like to go try Baker's Crust the next time we are in Norfolk. The atmosphere at Baker's Crust is great! From what I could see when inside it was nice, and quaint. It was bright inside as well. Outdoors is a nice patio setting . There are dog bowls outside so I assume it is pet friendly. We will definitely return! read more

For lunch/dinner? Yes! Breakfast? Ehh. So glad we stopped around a time when breakfast food wasn't on the agenda, because I never would've thought to visit here. Took a minute to be greeted as it was quite empty inside around 4pm. Beautiful inside that brings a bit of peace to your day. Once seated, our waitress was great from start to end. Happy hour is from 4-6 with $7 cocktails so of course I got a mimosa. Blood orange should be your go to! I ordered the Jalapeño & cheddar club which was absolutely amazing. Not too much of a taste of jalapeño though. Definitely ask for the herb Mayo with it! I opted to get fries inside of the Parmesan chips ($1.50 up charge). Fries were just okay, so I may try the chips next time! Overall great experience that has changed my mind some about Baker's Crust and I'm glad this location was able to do that. read more

Alright, Yelp - I'm falling victim to the immediate rave, but I gotta do it! I stopped in the area today to pick up materials for our Yelp event on Thursday from Board & Brush, and Baker's Crust was right next door. Since it was lunchtime and I was starving, I decided to stop in and pick something up to-go quick. I'm still not doing indoor dining at this point, so I hopped in, ordered and the hostess brought my order outside for me. From what I was able to take in of the inside quick, it's a really cute space and looked like they were doing social distancing well with tables. The place has a wood-fire oven, and that's where I went -- I love me a good wood-fired pizza, and they are HARD to come by. Well, I ordered the prosciutto and arugula pizza. It was $15 -- so you hope it's amazing, and WOW. Just WOW. Fresh mozzarella, a perfect tomato sauce, exquisite crust, salty prosciutto and tart arugula. What a combo! I ate half in my car for lunch, and then reheated the second half to eat here at home for dinner (and it held up well with reheating in the oven on 350). I don't feel bad about not having a side salad because there was literally so much salad on my pizza, I didn't miss a thing! If I had a critique, that'd be it -- I could have done with about half the greens, and I took off quite a few. And at the original lunch eating, the bottom crust was soft and didn't hold up the toppings very well. But in the second reheating for dinner, it was perfect after a little extra baking. EASY 4 1/2 stars on this one folks. Loved it. And if I'm in the area again, I'll try more things to see if it truly is at 5 star level! read more

Four of us visited the Resturant for dinner. The ASIAGO Chicken was extremely disappointing. The sauce was water and the portion of chicken was disappointing. My daughter has purchased this dish at least five times over the past several months. So this evaluation has a solid point of reference. The other meals were ok, nothing impressive. The waitress attitude was very flat. Appeared she was bored. Never provided utensils. I had to retrieve utensils from an empty table. Her attention to our table was less than what would be considered average. All in all a negative experience. I hate to complain to Restaurant personnel. However dealing with the personnel was frustrating; resolved but reluctantly. I never will visit the restaurant again. read more

This location was suggested for brunch and I'm glad I didn't pass. We did call ahead and add our name to the wait list about 20mins out. We were told at the moment there was a 20-30 min wait, we arrived in about 20 mins and still had about a 15 min wait, not bad wait. Our server was very nice. The restaurant was & clean. Our food came our hot and as ordered. My only small complaint the chicken strips were unseasoned. I mean absolutely no season but fried just like I like them. Will definitely visit if in the area again. read more

Ugh, I hate to do this because Baker's Crust was a favorite of mine growing up. My latest visit, though, left me unsatisfied. I want to remind anyone reading this that I stopped by on 7/15/20 - during the pandemic and, from what I've gathered, they just reopened because of COVID-19. So they're likely not fully staffed and not fully trained/retrained. I didn't call ahead - my mom and I just left Sentara Norfolk and decided on dinner at the last minute. I walked in, grabbed a menu and we looked it over in the truck. While I was in there, I noticed Baker's was open for dining - it looked like they were practicing proper social distancing procedures (seating at every other table, no patrons at the bar and posted signs requiring that masks be worn in order to enter their establishment), while the entire staff were wearing facemasks and gloves. Mom opted for the chicken shawarma and I picked the tuna and avocado poké (which was listed in the appetizer section, if that makes any difference). The hostess, Ayela, was also taking care of take-away orders. She was pleasant and took my order and payment without issue. She proceeded to tell me that it would take 10-15 minutes for my dinner to be ready. That sounded good, but based on my observation there didn't seem to be a sense of urgency from anyone working. I watched as the BOH staff seemed to be chillin' while preparing dishes. The pizza maker looked lethargic while simply cutting a pizza pie he just pulled out of the oven. Then he dropped something as he was using the peel - there was a plate or something on the end of it that fell off. Nice and loud - it likely startled someone. What bothered me, besides the slow motion look of the staff, was I could see my order was ready. The poké went into one bag while it awaited the shawarma; then the shawarma came up and went into a completely separate bag. The expo person's job seemed to include pulling orders from the window to be trayed and placing the togo orders on a counter. Taking the extra step of bagging the orders correctly wasn't there. So both items from my order sat on a counter in separate bags, along with other togo orders. Ayela was the only person bagging up the togo orders - she sat three separate parties while my order was chillin' on the counter near the pizza prep station. Then my social distancing radar kicked in when a customer walked right up to me, WITHOUT a mask, to announce she had arrived to pick up her togo order. I got up and walked away from her - sorry, I wasn't feeling that (oh yeah, since I didn't mention it before, I was wearing my mask the entire time). Ayela got back to the station, saw the food and she noticed my order was in two separate bags. She sorted that out, threw in what turned out to be like 20 sheets of paper napkins, walked over and gave me the bag. Ayela seemed to be the only one working - while she was seating customers and bussing empty tables all the togo orders were neglected. The biggest insult was after I got home and inspected my order. I already knew when I ordered it that Baker's poké doesn't come with rice. What I didn't realize is the one thing that makes a poké bowl, the fish, would be so sparse. My guess is there was 1 ounce (2 oz. at best) of tuna - the only ingredient that was smaller were the rainbow microgreens. I felt like I was shorted - that entree was NOT worth $15. It tasted good, though, I'll give it that, but I should've ordered something else or bought a bowl from an actual poké spot. But I wanted to try Baker's poké bowl since it was on the menu. Mom liked her chicken shawarma - it filled her up although she commented that the entire entree wasn't as big the pita it was served in. Baker's Crust is still a fine spot but I didn't see urgency or teamwork from the staff and I felt shortchanged because of poké bowl. JV read more

First time here and can't wait to come back and try more delicious items on the menu. I kept going back and fourth between so many items. I finally decided on the BC Combo and I'm so glad I did. The salad was so good with the fruit, goat cheese and raspberry vinaigrette. WINE COUNTRY grapes, strawberries, candied pecans, parmesan, mixed greens, goat cheese, raspberry vinaigrette.  I paired it with the PROSCIUTTO CAPRESE sliced roasted turkey, capicola ham, prosciutto, arugula, fresh mozzarella, mayo, oven-roasted tomatoes, balsamic glaze, artisan baguette.  The combo was so delicious. I got the best of both sides. The baguette was a little hard to eat because of the texture, but it was so good. I already have my next meal picked out which will most likely be the Malibu or chicken shrawma or possibly even breakfast. read more

Baker's Crust - BC Combo WINE COUNTRY Salad Paired with the PROSCIUTTO CAPRESE Sandwich - Bakeries Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

I would normally give Baker'S Crust 4 star review but my food and experience today on my To Go order was less than gratifying. Upon walking in I was promptly greeted and I asked for a menu and advised that I can walk to the bar to place my order. I noticed that the normal Salmon salad that I have previously ordered was no longer on the menu. I can only assume that this is an updated Fall menu. I ordered my salad and asked for it to be cooked Medium Rare. After waiting for an extensive period of time I was given my salad with no dressing. I am glad I made that observation before leaving. My server promptly took care of that. I drove off. Upon reaching my destination I opened my salad to devour it and it was information that my salmon was way over cooked. As a pescatarian it's imperative that my fish be cooked the way I like. If you were a steak lover and received your steak not cooked to your liking. Most likely you would return it. If I would have been close I would have returned the salad In all honesty is was lacking in so many ways. Salmon over cooked and under seasoned. And the salad itself lacked a appetizing flavor combination. It was very bland. I was very dissatisfied that I paid a little over $20 for a salad that was not very good. I did not enjoy it one bit. The service was good but my meal wasn't I have had other items at Panera that were yummy. The brunch is good and the grapefruit crush pitchers are awesome. read more

Got takeout from here recently with some friends and thought my sandwich was decent. I ordered the Chicken & Cheddar for myself and everything was reasonably tasty. I guess I was hoping for it to be a little more elevated somehow. The chips were flavorful but a little soggy for me, although they may be better if eaten fresh at the restaurant. Overall, I would definitely give this place another try (especially the pizza!) but I wasn't blown away by my sandwich. read more

I went here after church service while visiting one of my friends for the weekend. Unfortunately the service was average and the food was as well. I tried their avocado toast and the greek yogurt bowl. The avocado toast was just ok, but I should have asked for it to not have hummus on it. Seemed like a weird addition when I was reading it on the menu and it actually was. The yogurt bowl was good but unfortunately warm. Our waitress was nice but didn't really check on us much throughout our time dining there. I'd give it another shot, but maybe on a less busy day. read more

I wish I could give this more stars... I'm sure the food would've been better if it was warm. I placed my to go order with office coworkers today for an 11:45 pickup. The food was picked up on time but it was not warm. I received a text that my order was ready for pick up at 11:23. Another coworker called the restaurant and was given a horrible attitude by the guy answering the phone that "we don't do orders like that, we do the orders as they come in." She was livid. Her food was cold too. Our office collectively spent a good bit today on our orders and I doubt we will again based on the food temp and the response of the person who answered that phone. read more

Tried it out for lunch. TUNA BURGER "sashimi tuna, poke sauce, avocado, pickled onions, sesame aioli, sriracha mayo, brioche roll, fresh cut fries". I recommend this, the flavors from each ingredients worked so well together. If you want something savory, definitely try this. CHICKEN & WAFFLE "traditional belgian waffle, buttermilk fried chicken tenders, honey beurre blanc, warm maple syrup". This was generic. I like the crispy outside of the chicken tenders. I wished the chicken tenders to be more juicy. This dish was ok. Our server was friendly and attentive. read more

This is the second time I've been at this location and the food never disappoints. We love the calamari here - delicious! My wife ordered their turkey club and salad and it was really, really good. So good, that when there was an issue with my order and I was given the option to get something else - I decided to order the turkey club. Here's why I give it five starts though. The outstanding service! Like I mentioned above, there was an issue with my food. Almost immediately, the waitress (Carla) came through and took care of it, but above and beyond - the manager came over to our table and apologized for the issue and began to offer ways to make it right. I wasn't angry, or irate, just a bit disappointed. But that quickly turned around after I saw the actions the waitress and manager took in making sure we have a good dining experience. And THAT alone, to me, deserves five stars. Customer service always makes a difference. We finished our lunch, had some good laughs with the waitress, enjoyed the rest of our food and had a memorable lunch date with my wife. I recommend this spot to anyone looking for good food and superb customer service. read more
