The bread is ok- the baguette is nothing special; the 5-grain is good. Their croissants, cakes and other pastries are very good. Don't order a coffee and expect to get it quickly. Your order goes into the queue, so if you're behind several people with large orders you may be waiting 20+ minutes for an iced coffee. Basically, they're ordering system could use some work. Some of the staff is a little rude, but things are crazy right now due to covid so who knows what struggles are taking place behind the scenes. Also, the sign on the door states a 5 guest maximum in the store at one time- this is not being enforced. I probably won't be going back unless ordering gets more streamlined and they're are less people shoving their way into the cafe. read more

Again Small Oven delivers! Went for Sunday breakfast today and was surprised by bfast being as good and maybe better than already my favorite lunch spot! Omg I kept asking Amanda--'what is that you just served ?' And three times she said 'toast and eggs' Each plate looked more and more delicious--yet was the same dish!! The soft boiled eggs are an egg perfection!!! We had the Tourtine and it was a breakfast for a queen!!! Again soft boiled egg, of course amazing bread, crazy bean spread and tasty arugula with some veggies. Ah-mazing! I really can't say enough about this breakfast. Best best best breakfast! Thanks Julie and Amanda. Oh, and a simple espresso!!! Yum!!! read more

This place is adorable. staff is so kind it is just altogether a cool place and I dont LOVE the food but it is still good

I love this food! Everything is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and pleasant. I will definitely return.! read more

Excellent breads at this little bakery, however they sell out early very often. This is a problem. I've been here many times trying to get 1 loaf of bread. A line of people with others who want the same thing. All told they are out of all bread except for sandwiches. And I'm talking about being here at 10-11am... read more

This is a very friendly little place. That's why I gave it 3 stars. Luckily the cappuccino was only $2.75 as it was one of the most depressing cappuccinos I've come across in this area. I had a ginger scone which was very dense and I ended up throwing it out. All the other baked goods ...croissants etc was baked towards the " burned side " so I wasn't tempted to get that either. I can't see myself coming back. read more

Whoa I had the best "sandwich" here, if not the best in my life then at least in a very long time. It wasn't a sandwich so much as hummus toast with vegan yumminess all over it. There were bites with preserved lemon, which is now one of my favorite things, and occasionally something sweet, and the greens on top were fresh and perfectly dressed. My daughter had the egg and cheese sandwich, which was also delicious. I wish I lived nearby but I'll definitely be back when visiting the area in the future! read more

Food is good, but not good enough to wait in a 20-40 minute line like there was this morning. A queue for just coffee and pastries on one side and a queue for bigger food orders on another might allow more people to be served in a timely manner. Maybe a self serve drip station for folks ordering food would help? Otherwise, this place is super cute and the sandwiches and pasteries are delicious, coffee is decent. read more

GREAT REAL FOOD! I recently ate here with my family and extended family. We all ordered different things and everyone loved their meals. Even the toast was amazing! Fresh, Real ingredients in yummy combinations. Best quiche I ever tasted. The coffee was a little bitter. We will definitely be going back again and again! read more

Super cute bakery/cafe on Union Street. Opted for a ham and cheese croissant (they have with and without sesame seeds). Took it to go, and it is huge! Warmed it up slightly at home and it's perfect! So glad I finally stopped in. There is usually a line on the weekends. read more

We ordered two layer cakes for a family celebration. Not only were the cakes delicious, they were beautifully decorated with fresh flowers. Our guests loved the lemon cakes, one with a chocolate ganache filling and frosting, the other with a buttercream filling and frosting. The cakes had a delicate lemon flavor and were not overly sweet. Staff were helpful and professional and we were able to order the cakes over the phone. Would highly recommend Small Oven for their delicious breads and cakes. read more

I did not know that bread could be so delicious. My girlfriend and I have become bread fiends because of this place. If we aren't careful we can devour full loaves in a single sitting. It's seriously that good. They have pre-made meals, one of my favorite being the goat cheese and fig sand-which. They have wonderful kind service, and they seem to be handling cleanliness during the pandemic with professionalism and courtesy. We will be lifetime supporters of small oven! read more

This is an incredible asset for Easthampton! Amazing talent! I would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you!

I consider myself a lifelong "bakery tourist, always looking for a new tree for my taste buds. Small Oven is a place I hope will stay on the map for a long, long time!! Everything is delicious here--not just the bread and pastries--but also the salads, sandwiches, soups, coffee, etc. Staff are kind and welcoming, and the atmosphere is cozy. Favorites on my most recent visit were the breakfast special Tartine with white beans & bluefish salad, the pecan sticky bun, and a cold brew with almond milk. Yum! read more

Small Oven is a welcome addition to the Easthampton scene. It's a hands-on little joint that has tremendous ambition and lattes that will have you hopping off the wall for a couple of hours. There is hit and miss on the menu however and Small Oven can also not be very practical, and a little on the pricy side. First off, there is a lot of love for this place and it's very friendly with the owner front and center really engaging with her customers. It sets a warm vibe straight off. That menu has some interesting daily options on the board and the baked goods are fresh. Baguettes are truly top class (and I think award-winning), lattes are STRONG. They are pretty fast in getting your sandwich out to you. It's a tad awkward in the waiting area (if you are getting it to go) but the staff are really on it and seek you out. It does get busy but they can move through a line. The croissants are a bit too crispy and a bit dry. The almond croissant can be spectacular on its given day but it can be a bit uneven. The sandwiches look great on the board but are a little flimsy for take-out. On a rainy day you'll be handed your sandwich in a nice looking but impractical open-ended foil wrapping. Not great for carrying. I've noticed that the orders can be done out of sync too. You'd get a warm breakfast sandwich but cold toast. It's happened a few times. It's a small thing but when you get charged $4 for toast, you kinda want it warm and the butter soft. Sounds first world problem, right? But it's $4...that's the thing. And speaking of first world they don't do a decaf latte yet :) All and all though it's good. Sometimes it's annoying because it's pricy and impractical and just a bit off. They try hard though and they're in the right zone and do well from a small space. read more

This was our once-a-week breakfast treat before Covid. Would like to reinstate the tradition, but still being cautious. Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious and filling. Last time we were there (2 years ago, so take this with a grain of salt) the coffee was not great. But the food makes up for that. read more

The best food of any kind in Easthampton, easy. Everything is good. And Sunday pizza nights have been a welcome addition. I only wish they had longer hours. read more

Wonderful lunch spot. Not quite as good as Hungry Ghost, but I like that it is in downtown Easthampton.

Small but so big on flavor. I can't remember the last time I walked into a place and wanted to ordered every single menu item. You are cruel Small Oven. Wish I were local. read more

This place is so good. Really one of the best plain croissants and that's something real special! Make a special stop there.

The best breakfast sandwich I think I've EVER had- and a fantastic latte too. Wish I lived nearby because the fresh baked bread looked intoxicating, and if I wasn't just passing through I would have bought out the baguettes I'm sure. If you find yourself nearby, stop for a cup of coffee and a delicious treat- I'm sure you won't be disappointed. read more

Cute little bakery with a few seats/tables outside. Limited menu. Taste was good but item was over baked.

This is my favorite bakery! Love coming here for breakfast and lunch, all menu options are amazing and the coffee tastes great too! Plus, the whole staff is incredibly nice!! Small oven rocks read more

Great smells, even better food. I came during a weekend rush and my order got lost. My meal was comped and they gave me a surprise cookie.

One of the better bakeries in the area. Great sandwiches and lunches. Sometimes the staff seems a bit strange. Typical western MA inability to just be good at customer service, as if it offends their "true selves" or something. I haven't really figured out why people do that around there yet. It's awkward to people not from the area or from major cities where people have to work super hard to keep the bills paid. It's kind of cool there is a place in America where people can provide poor service and still keep the the bills paid. Sort of funny really. overall, I like this little bakery. read more

I was raised by a baker, so most of the baked goods I eat make me think they either came from factories, or uninterested amateurs. Small Oven's stuff tastes like actual food, made with actual ingredients. Flour, sugar, butter, vanilla, cinnamon. They put a lot of effort into both the baked goods and the lunch menu, and it shows. This is a wonderful place for Easthampton to have. It's small, but it's also a home grown operation, not a chain or a place that gets their stuff delivered from a "bakery" factory fifty miles away every morning. As for the people that complain about the sticky buns (or whatever other authentic thing that they're not used to): I am reminded of children raised on fish sticks and frozen fries that poutily push away their first order of real Fish and Chips. The sticky buns aren't puffy dough filled with cinnamon-flavored goop, they're croissant dough with sugar and cinnamon. It's *actual food*, which I know is startling for some people, but if they don't like it, there's a drive through on the way out of town that will happily serve them burnt coffee and a breakfast that will never rot because it's mostly fillers and preservatives anyway. read more

Another pit stop while in Easthampton ... everything looked great but wasn't! The sticky bins were the worst ever ... I know .. someone out there is thinking W-H-A-T ?? ... sorry that was OUR experience. They were DRY and the bottom was burnt as in had black marks ... we took a bit and they ended up in the can. No something that is normal for me to do to a sticky bun!. Maybe an off experience, ?? but the person behind the counter should have known they were not lookin' good that day! We got one sandwich, a special of the day and it was very good but took forever to make .. a ridiculous amount of time... Staff wasn't very friendly ...the space is sweet and the baked goods look awesome but we were disappointed. read more

I've been here several times, and I'm in love. Let's talk food: Sandwiches:. Good to great. I particularly like their egg sandwich on the croissant. Breads: I bought a brioche from small oven last week and it was perfect. We used it to made the best French toast of all time. Then we finished off the loaf one buttered slice at a time. I've enjoyed their other breads as well. Eclairs: excellent. Filled with a perfect pastry cream. Yum. Cakes: best ever? I got a birthday cake here, and it was not only delicious in every aspect, it was also BEAUTIFUL. It looked better than most wedding cakes I've seen. I live within walking distance of this place, so I will be getting fat. read more

I love these ladies. They are amazing wonderful incredibly hard working people. Their bread is some of the best in the valley, and honestly this is the level that Easthampton needs to aspire to (along with Captain Jack's and Coco). I'm giving them five stars because it is some of the best in the area, if not THE best in the Valley for what they do, and they're some of the nicest people I've met - fantastic business owners that know how to make clients happy and welcome. That being said, I was raised by a baker and I can see some of the limitations to their "petit four" cooking methods (they literally only have an oven and small portable induction burner, so it limits their offerings). For example, I've never been a fan of their quiche because they cook it fully, then when they warm it up again (in their oven) it gets burned. They do an amazing breakfast sandwich, but it often sells out. Also, they make a cortado, for $2, which is awesome. Visit them, get there early, and get the breakfast sandwich. They'll probably know your name by the next time you come in. read more

Absolutely Charming! My friend and I went for lunch and split 2 sandwiches, and an eclair and everything was perfect and high quality. If you're a fan of bread you're in the right place! Excellent lattes too! & the sweetest people you can ever imagine! read more

The most delicious sandwiches, coffees, breads, pastries etc. My main complaint right now are the hours. The price is also a factor at times as they are pricey but worth it. read more

Just about every Saturday my boyfriend and I get pastries from Small Oven. We have never been disappointed. The croissants are buttery, flakey and light. I love the filled croissants also. The ingredients are fresh and the flavor combinations are delicious. My boyfriend loves the sticky bun. The dough is the perfect texture, and it isn't cloyingly sweet. Small Oven always helps us start our Saturdays off right. We love it as much as we love each other! read more

Run by a bunch of darlings who bake like I would, if I had the time and energy. Excellent spot for a quick lunch and to read the paper or catch up on work. If they have any type of cake, you must get a slice. read more

How have I not reviewed Small Oven??? If you haven't been, you need to. Period. I could live strictly on the avocado bacon sandwiches and sticky buns. Everything I've ever had there is delicious - cookies, bread, quiche, sandwiches, pastries, open faced sandwiches with soft boiled eggs, cakes. Some of the flavor combinations are so inventive and just superb. Even the potato salads that comes with the sandwich are so yummy! They also keep a good mix of their standard items on the menu but have inventive specials so you can always try something new to keep things fresh. Can't even remember how many times I've been here and have never been disappointed. read more

Excellent sandwich shop and bakery. We had a delicious ham and red onion quiche, soup and an amazing unique chicken sandwich on fresh baked bread. It's a small place so don't be surprised if you cannot find a table. Prices are very reasonable for what you get. read more
