Pisgah Bakehouse was easily one of the best food finds of our Brevard / Pisgah Forest trip. My…read moresister and I liked it so much that we went back the next morning, and each of us brought sourdough home. What stood out was how much care there was in the food. Everything felt balanced, thoughtful, and made with real skill. Nothing was trying too hard. It was just very good food made by people who clearly know what they're doing and care. I noticed some reviews complain about the wait. I get it, but honestly, I think that misses the point. This is not fast food, and it doesn't taste like fast food. When a place is making food with this much care, I'm fine waiting a bit. I live in Chicago and would be thrilled to have a place like this near me. Pisgah Bakehouse is casual, but the food is seriously good. It was one of those places that made the trip memorable. Thanks.

Their chicken salad is stellar; i no longer make my own - i just walk up the street and buy theirs. Their sandwiches are excellent. I've also bought a number of cakes, cookies and other desserts there. My favorite is the tiramisu and the red velvet cake. The cakes are also gorgeous - beautifully decorated. There's a reason you see a lot of locals dining here - we know it is one of the best places in town.

For jarring my memory and giving me memories to fix not writing a great review for this place. We traveled to Brevard back in 2022 for one of our annual leaf viewing tours. Fun fact about Brevard! There are white squirrels everywhere. There are also regular brown squirrels too. My wife told me about this before we got here but it's strange, there are so many of them. One of the oddest things I find is that there are no mixed squirrels. Like kinda brown, or kinda white, it's either one or the other. They hang together, surely they get it on. What the hell is going on here?!?!? Where did they come from? Why haven't they spread to other areas?? Anyway.... About this bakery. We stopped by here a few times for meals and snacks. Most of it was just pretty good and nothing to really write home (lol) about. I did not know this at the time and did not truly savor the moment well enough. I had the absolute best pastry I have ever had in my life here. I often think back to it and when I see a similar looking pastry only to be let down when I try it. It was the scone to beat all other scones!!! So freaking good!! Orange Pistachio Coriander was the flavor and nothing will ever beat it I am afraid!! If you make it here, check out the white squirrels. There are even gift shops dedicated to them and I swear they have little signs all over town about them. Also.... Mantiques is right down the way. Great shopping!! '22 - I can't even remember, lol.

You'll also find seasonal items that are reflective of the berries, apples, and fruits harvested in Western North Carolina throughout the year. They have an small staff that is usually very friendly and attentive. Whether you're in town for a weekend getaway or an extended period of time you'll feel like a local when you walk in. Make sure to check their hours and days to make sure they're open, as they are closed for a few days every week. So plan according! ; ) One of our favorite loyalty programs is their old school punch card for Lattes that seem to rotate flavors on a daily basis. After you get to 10 or so they'll give you a free one, which is a fun incentive in our family for sure! Guten Appetit!
