I did the whole order over email. I was a little concerned at first, but the communication was quick and efficient.

We stopped into Spring Hill Pastry Shop during a last-minute overnight trip, and I'm really glad we…read moredid. Everything we tried was soft, fresh, and flavorful without being overly sweet, which I really appreciated. You can tell this is the kind of place that's been doing things the same (and doing them well) for a long time. The prices were also surprisingly great, and had they been listed, I would have purchased a lot more. It's a small, old-school bakery that's clearly been a local favorite for generations, and that charm is part of what makes it special. That said, as first-time visitors, it was a little tough to navigate. Nothing is labeled, no menu, no prices, so we had to ask a few questions and rely on recommendations. Maybe it was just a busy Saturday morning, but the young woman helping us didn't seem thrilled that I was taking photos and asking about the pastries. I get that most of their customers are probably regulars who already know what they want, but for those of us just passing through, a little guidance (and patience) would go a long way. Even with that experience, I'd still recommend stopping by. The pastries really are that good, the prices are fair, and it's the kind of nostalgic, old fashioned bakery that's getting harder to find these days.

The "famous gyro" was decent, but not great. I've had better gyros, and I've had worse. The pita…read morewas fresh and warm. The veggies were fresh and crisp. The gyro meat was fried, not grilled. I far, far prefer my gyro meat to be grilled on a vertical rotisserie. The waitress said that they make their own gyro meat. It tasted like it was mostly beef, not lamb. I like my gyros to be 100% lamb. There was not enough tzatziki sauce on the gyro for my taste. I like my gyros to have fries in them. Instead, I was served potato chips on the side. I might go back to try their pizza and gelato. I don't think I'll bother with the gyro again.

They didn't try to make me substitute something else after I declined the first time to have them give me something else. Chips were great. Crunchy yet not hard at all. I was almost going for 4 because while the gyro was excellent, the bread was so soft yet it didn't get soggy, I felt like it had too much of the tahini or whatever thr cream they put in it. I like it but for thr first half of thr gyro it seemed that that was the overpowing flavor. The second half I'd the gyro it was differnet. All ingredients were well balanced and complemented eachother. I ordered the gouda bites

Now housed in the…read moreold Zippy's Hotdogs building in Southridge, they've become the only drive-thru bakery of their kind in West Virginia. My son has never tasted the heavenly goodness of a Sugar Pie cupcake, so I decided to try that drive-thru out and let him give this bakery a whirl on the tastemobile. David got the oreo cupcake. He has not ranked any restaurant below a 9 so far and there were no surprises in his verdict this time. His eyes got big as saucers as he took the first bite and he yelled, "There are oreos IN the cupcake! And this icing is so soft and fluffy, oh my gosh! Ten out of ten! Ten out of ten!" My child literally put the cupcake up to my face and squealed, "See the pieces of oreos, mom?!?" I wish he was as equally enthused about cleaning his room or taking a shower... I got the chocolate peanut butter cupcake. I agree that it was mighty tasty. I've had Sugar Pie before, so I wasn't as excited as David. Of course, I don't think anyone is as excited as my son when it comes to good food! :) If you've never had Sugar Pie Bakery cupcakes, cookies, pepperoni rolls or anything else on their yummy menu, I suggest that you stop by and check them out. It is definitely a more convenient location and you can drop in after a trip to Target or Best Buy. You can purchase individual cupcakes for $3, or by them by the half dozen or dozen.
