The gentleman that took our order was initially rude, and we felt as if we were annoying him by ordering. We stuck with it and placed our order (we had 9 in our group). The food came out very fast and it was amazing!! We ate outside. The menu is awesome with many interesting options. They also have cookies etc in the case that look outstanding! By the end of our stay the gentleman warmed up a bit and seemed to appreciate our business. We will definitely return!! read more

I was excited to try this bakery because of the baked goods and handmade lattes. Unfortunately, the quiche was cold and the large latte was unexpectedly small. I was very alarmed by the customers rushing to get in the entrance, but glad another customer noticed I had been waiting. I'm thankful for the kindness that was given by that customer and the friendly workers. I would love to come back for a do-over and just ask for them to warm the quiche. read more

A week out from our son's birthday and we needed a cake. Since we were staying at the KOA in Cape Charles, I did a quick google search and made a phone call. I asked for vanilla cake and vanilla icing with a cookies and cream flavor if possible to be incorporated. They made us an 8 inch double layer cake with cookies and cream in the center with cookie crumble pieces and some fudge drizzle. They were closed on Monday but allowed us to do a pickup Monday morning. The cake was delicious and the people in the bakery were absolutely amazing. It's a cute little place and can't wait to go back and try something on their menu. They have outside seating and the inside is a little small bit it really is nice. The cake was absolutely delicious. I'd absolutely go back and I recommend them 100%. Next time I'm in Cape Charles, you can bet I'll be stopping by. read more

Cute place. Pastries and desserts are good but definitely pricey for what you get. Got the breakfast chicken sandwich-not worth it. It's about $9+ wasn't expecting a chicken patty. The muffins were good the smith island cake is okay a bit dry. read more

Found this little bakery on our roadtrip up the eastern shore. Cute little cafe. Food was delicious and cold brew was perfect. The employee that helped us was very nice and welcoming. Only issue was the cafe does not have a public restroom which oddly several other businesses on Main Street did not have public restrooms either. Also there is no inside seating so be prepared to eat outside or togo. read more

What a wonderful shop! I've been inside before to buy a quick cookie or take a small snack, but this time we had a lovely lunch here about half an hour before closing. We spoke to the friendly owner I believe behind the counter and she was happy to make recommendations or answer our questions about the sandwiches and lunch entrees they offer. Everything looked good and we were absolutely starving - they have a large range of delicious items to include Shrimp and Grits, soups, sandwiches, and other items. I chose the everything turkey sandwich which was HUGE and loaded with cheese and meat. Very good and very filling. The everything croissant was fresh and tasty. My husband chose the pastrami sandwich which was equally huge and generous portions of meat. Sides were homemade pasta salad and potato salad, both delicious. There is a small shop inside where you can browse wares and some household items and food items are for sale. There are a number of small patio tables and a few larger tables for 3-5 with umbrellas all outside. We got a chocolate chunk cookie and a soda and I had an iced chai tea. SO good. The owner said her husband was from India so the chai was legit and she was right. I have actually had chai in India and this tasted just like it! The cookie was fresh and moist and loaded with chunks of chocolate. Just like my husband loves them. Note: The kitchen closes 10 minutes before 3 - they close at 3. To halt any last-minute orders while they're cleaning up for the day. We will absolutely be back - this is a gem. Great, friendly and welcoming service, wonderful food, and a large lunch/brunch menu. read more

First time exploring Cape Charles and I was craving something sweet! I stumbled upon Coastal Baking on a whim and was absolutely delighted. I ended up getting crumb cake, Reese's cookie,a cupcake and a latte to share with my family! The coffee was a raspberry white chocolate and was absolutely delicious! The unexpected star of the show was the crumb cake! This cake was huge and very moist! There was an unexpected raspberry flavor in the layers that tied the whole dessert together. This was without a doubt the best crumb cake I've ever had!! read more

Cute little store, no restroom. They have coffee and local desserts. This is right in Cape Charles. If you blink you'll miss it. The service was ok, it seemed like younger highschool or college kids was working as the staff. Not too overly excited about their jobs. But not rude. I like all the options of Baltimore and New Orleans goodies. I bought an Old Bay kitchen towel. If you're in the area for a few days, cute spot to stop by. read more

Great experience, we ordered our Easter baked goods from here and they were absolutely delicious! The cinnamon rolls are massive and definitely something to rave about! read more

We ordered the cinnamon roll, Smith Island cake (chocolate and coconut), a strawberry cream cheese roll, and a chicken biscuit sandwich. The chocolate Smith Island cake was very good. Great flavor and chocolate taste. The service was ready and handled the line that was out the door quickly. The inside was nice and clean and inviting. Worth trying when in Cape Charles. read more

Yummy ample-portioned sandwiches! My husband and I stopped by to grab a few sandwiches to enjoy back at our AirBnB. Even before we ordered the woman behind the counter informed us that it would be about a 45 minute wait for our sandwiches, since they just got a slew of orders in. It was extremely kind of her to let us know before we even began the order, and we just adjusted our plans to go walk through a few stores down the road while we waited. Now for the food.... I had the chicken salad with dried cranberry and walnuts. Delicious! Plenty of dried cranberries which is what I want in a chicken salad. I opted for it to be on their baguette with just tomato and it was a great sandwich. 1/2 was saved for the next day and was just as good as the first day. The husband got the Italian Muffuletta and he loved it. Thought it was just as good as one we had the previous year in New Orleans. His only complaint/wish was that the bread was toasted. He also enjoyed his other half the next day. We each got chips as the side but you could also choose the salad of the day which was macaroni salad. I wish now one of us had tried it, just to see how their macaroni salad tastes. Maybe another trip! They also have tons of amazing looking baked goods but will have to try those on another visit as well. read more

Service was top notch! The gentleman that assisted me was a sweetheart from the moment I walked in! We decided to eat outside because we had our paw baby with us. I went inside to see the menu and the waiter assured me to take my time... I appreciated that. and He brought out a bowl with water and ice for Archie! We split a Cuban sandwich which was tasty. More like a ham and cheese on pressed bread but it was still very good. read more

If you want sweets and coffee, this is the bakery to visit. We stopped in and ordered up a variety of cookies--my favorite was the toffee cookie. We also got coffee, including lattes. The staff was friendly and they had some lovely tables to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. The inside was cute as well, and they had a small store to purchase gourmet items. While we were there, we saw family after family come in to purchase all kinds of goodies, so clearly it's a hit with kids. read more

This bakery is right by the beach in Cape Charles. I've only been once (so far) but their bakery items are SO good! I got 4 different things when I went and each item was delicious, I'd order all of them again. The guy working that day was very nice and helpful. This is a place I'll absolutely return to as often as I can! read more

Coastal Baking - Bakery items - Bakeries Near Me - Cape Charles, Virginia

Not a lot was open in this town, but this bakery seemed a core business. One could walk inside and look at the wares before buying and eating either on tables outside or elsewhere in town. I sampled a Smith Island cake; a strange thing to get in Virginia instead of Maryland, but nonetheless relatively a local item. It was about what you would expect from the look of it, the icing combining with the cake in every bite. The white chocolate raspberry scone that I tried was actually a more interesting flavor combination and made for an excellent breakfast. They had lunch as well and a fairly exciting selection of regional potato chip flavors, but my needs has been filled. It wasn't a huge selection, and the cake was a bit pricey, but I was glad I found this place open. read more

Great outdoor seating but that is all there is; no indoor seating. They are open for breakfast with an attentive order there. The coffee is terrible . We ordered a cafe au lait and it was hot water with some milk. The quiche was boring and the only breakfast item that offered eggs. The sausage biscuit was ok. The blueberry breakfast was good. I'm sure the baked goods and sandwiches are better but we will not return for breakfast. read more

OMG, my foodie nephew wanted to try this place and the baked goods for breakfast were amazing. We also bought a black & white cookie and slice of Smith Island cake for later. Both were fantastic and these days it's hard to find good black & white cookies outside of the Northeast. Went back for lunch and the sandwiches were good. It's a small place with a small kitchen but they kept up with the lines pretty well. Friendly customer service on all parts. read more

Stopped here for lunch on a long car ride and I think it's a great pick! Lots of meat on the sandwiches, if you're into that, and great fresh bread. However, I wish that the slices of bread were large enough for my meat and toppings. Top piece was very small and made it unwieldy to manage. Don't have a picture, but the everything Turkey and cranberry chicken salad looked amazing. If I went back, I would probably also get something from their vast bakery selection. Unfortunately there is no bathroom available for the customers. read more

Coastal Baking - Roast beef sandwich (no cheese) - Bakeries Near Me - Cape Charles, Virginia

I loved Coastal Baking so much, that had I had more time on my family wedding trip, I would have come here every single day. This place is a coastal bakehouse dream. Not only do they serve coffee and pastries, but delicious lunch and sandwich options that rival most of the other lunch spots in town. Lunch is a hard thing to find in this tiny town, and while you might not necessarily think to visit Coastal Baking, it should truly be at the top of your list. I wish we would've known that sooner! From the coffee menu, I recommend ordering the cold brew with a shot of vanilla. This cold brew was so delicious. It wasn't overly bitter and pungent with a sour taste. It was understated but still tasty. Paired with a croissant, it was just a perfect duo for a sunny afternoon. Zip over on your golf cart and grab something! The atmosphere outside and inside is pure joy. My favorite businesses are the ones that put thought into their ambiance to really curate an experience. The vibe is welcoming, beautiful and photo worthy. In the back of the cafe, there's a small market of local goods to peruse. You can also eat out on their lovely patio, which is perfection on a sunny day. I can't say enough great things about this fabulous local spot. read more

One word - amazing! I loved everything about this place and can't wait to go back. I got an almond croissant and coconut smith cake and both were phenomenal. My husband got biscuits and gravy and blueberry muffin and said they both were to die for. Everything there looked so tasty and I wish I could've eaten everything but alas I will have to return to try more! read more

We came here at 2 pm. Most things have already been gone. I would recommend to come here early. They follow COVID-19 procedures. So they limit to only two people in this shop. They have outdoor seating. However there are very aggressive cat. The cat attacks you to get food from you. read more

Wanted a sweet dessert to take back to our B&B for after dinner so we stopped here! Grabbed a HUGE slice of carrot cake and a lemon bar. The carrot cake was delicious however the lemon bar was a disappointing to me. It hardly tasted like lemon, so we didn't finish it. They have tons of options and teas and coffees as well! read more

Wonderful! Even during Covid. When we arrived we waited outside as it was only 2 people allowed at a time inside, unless you were a group. I'm pretty sure we ordered everything off the menu. The sandwich combinations were amazing. We really loved everything! The baked goods were delicious and the sides were homemade. The staff were extremely helpful and patient. The seating outdoors was nice, and clean. We look forward to try them again in the future. read more

Delicious bakery and coffee! I visited this place twice over a weekend in Cape Charles. The baked goods and coffee were great and the service was friendly. It is a small place, but just perfect to pop in grab a coffee and chocolate croissant, and then take a walk around this little town. We noticed a few other folks on our second visit, so they too thought it was good enough to drop by again. Don't walk out without a lemon cookie or chocolate croissant, if those are a favorite. read more

OMG caliber food! We decided to take a quick road trip out of town across the bridge towards the Eastern Shore. I'm so glad we did. We came across this little place by accident and looks like we are going to add this to the routine. The food here is worth the drive (and the toll). Everything tasted so fresh. The apple pie: was just the right amount of sweetness. I appreciated the generous amount of cinnamon. The magic bar (I think that's what it is called, if not, it tasted like magic): all I will say is, I should have bought the other two that were left under the glass lid. My Muffaletta: their take on this classic New Orleans sandwich was GOOD. The bread was perfect (nice and soft), and the meat and olive spread had all the right tastes going. I've had plenty of them down in New Orleans and theur version is pretty darn good. Well done! See you soon.... read more

We made a day trip to Cape Charles and decided to eat here for lunch. Super cute little corner cafe with well maintained and clean white painted exterior accents - gave us nostalgic beach vibes. Very good COVID-19 protocols - only allowing two people inside at a time. It wasn't too long of a wait, and they have plenty of seating outside with umbrellas. When we went in, we ordered the curried chicken sandwich & the jerk chicken panini, along with a cinnamon roll (we scored the last one!) and a slice of key lime pie. The sandwiches came with a side, so we chose the macaroni salad and asian noodles. We came out to wait... for a while. We gave them benefit of the doubt - knowing that staffing may have decreased due to the pandemic, and there was a lot of people coming in for the lunch rush. But it also seemed like people who came after us were getting their food first. After close to 30 minutes, one of the ladies came out and apologized, saying that our order never made it to the kitchen and that she's putting it in again now. We continued to wait another 15-20 minutes until our food came out. We took it to the car when we realized that the sides weren't inside - and we wanted to give them a try - so we went back to the restaurant to get the sides. However, they ran out of the side that we wanted and gave us the pasta primavera instead. No biggie. Food verdict: * Curried chicken salad was REALLY good and flavorful - possibly one of the best I've tried. It came on a flaky garlic naan, which definitely elevated the experience. * Jerk chicken panini was good, no complaints. * The sides weren't worth going back for - both pastas were on the mushy side, not a fan. * Cinnamon roll was ok, tasted "healthy" and a tad bit dry; would have liked more glaze on top. * Key lime pie was good but had a slightly off putting aftertaste. The graham cracker crust was yummy. Overall, I think my experience above was a one-time incident - the staff seem friendly and doing their best to stay busy and efficient during this time. They also seem to have a strong local base of regulars to stay in business. I'll definitely come back for the curried chicken salad again! read more

Everything was delicious!! My daughter res enjoyed all the items they selected. The curry chicken salad was amazing and unique.

Cute little place with great pastries. I've learned when it's the only thing open in town it is going to have a line! My kids loved the chocolate donuts and I enjoyed the crumb cake. I appreciate the iced coffee was made to order--she asked me exactly how much simple syrup and cream I wanted. Very friendly staff. read more

This is my favorite new addition to Cape Charles. The building is cute, clean, and pristine on the outside and inside. The aroma of goodness hits you when you first walk in. The sandwiches are stuffed with quality ingredients on freshly baked breads. The entrees are full of flavor, especially their Indian specials on Thursdays. Cassie and her family are always inviting and friendly. She is quick to describe menu items to you. You can really tell that they enjoy what they do.

There are some places that stay with you forever. This is one of those places. First, you have to get there before they open because a line starts early.

Just get it, don't count the calories. read more

Yummy pastries, cookies and coffee!!! We got some sandwiches to take to the beach, and they were great!!!

Gem of a place with savory and sweets of course. We got sausage lentil for hubby which he let me take a taste. It was chock full of flavor filled with plentiful sausage. I got the Italian which was packed with freshly cut meats. The bread was also obviously freshly baked. So incredibly moist on the inside filled with tart and tangy flavors while maintaining the crunchy factor on the outside. Oh yummy. I got the side of macaroni and cheese. We also got 2 blueberry muffins and since she didn't have any regular croissants left, we had to get multigrain croissants for brunch later on. Cassie, the owner, is so incredibly sweet and personable. We will be back here again but we will need to lose some weight first. Nah, we won't. Who are we kidding? read more
