I had a delicious chicken sandwich here. Simple, fresh ingredients, good quality chicken. Service was prompt and friendly. Clearly some quality kitchen work going on here. PRICE WAS INEXPENSIVE! 8.95 for a chicken salad sandwich in fancy Middleburg?! I'll take it! I shall return. read more

Love this place, best fresh baked goods in a 200 mile radius! Add French bread baguettes!

Love this place! The smell alone is enough to draw you in. The pastries are insane and the added bonus of having fountain soda. Plus, there is rarely a wait. read more

Great place for lunch. There's a patio out back aka dog friendly. Sandwiches are made to order. Homemade Cookies of all kinds yum!! Try the pecan/carmel cookie (their signature) or the chocolate chip cookie sandwich filled with icing. read more

This restaurant was the highlight of our excursion to the town of Middleburg. The original shop is an a house that's over 100 years old and it has character. If the lines long it'll move relatively fast, the interior is very small. There is a bunch of seating outside as well as in a small extra building out back for the colder days. What I got: Spicy hen on sourdough - 5* this was fantastic! The spicy chicken had great flavor and the sourdough bread was surprisingly soft. Okie dokie - 4* a very yummy cookie. read more

The Upper Crust - Spicy hen on sourdough - Bakeries Near Me - Middleburg, Virginia

I really like this tiny, quaint bakery! my boss loves their cow puddles, so typically we end up getting a ton of them at a time. located across the street from the Safeway, this little bakery now takes credit cards via Square & cash. super convenient for me now as I don't have to take cash with me anymore. I took a ton of photos, but I didn't realize until afterwards, they have a sign that said no cell phones :x sorry! their baked goods are always good. cow puddles are these chewy, addicting cookies made with some decadent brown butter. I also bought a honey bun for myself and a sugar cookie for my daughter. she really enjoyed it as it was a cute little purple horse! the chocolate croissants were so good. I wouldn't compare them to an actual French one, but good for what you're getting. I honestly had to stop looking as I wanted to buy everything myself (pregnancy cravings). great little stop for anyone in the area! read more

On the way out to Upperville to catch the meteor shower, we stopped here in the hope of enjoying some of their legendary pie. We were a little too late for any of their fruit pies, but George kindly informed us we could order one for the next day on our return trip. We selected the Sweet Rosie O' Grady with its promise of perfectly ripe cherries and peaches. Of course we got a little sidetracked on the way back the next day. There is so much natural beauty in the area, along with stately homes and historic sites and plaques. We kept the closing time in the back of our minds as we made our way and George called to check on our arrival. With the pie safely buckled into a seatbelt in the backseat, we headed home. After a late nap to combat the sleepiness from watching meteors at 2 am, we got up and had a slice of pie, without even warming it up or adding ice cream. It stood on its own, without adornment with the best crust I can remember enjoying, ever. What a treasure this little shop is! read more

After our Best Thai experience, we decided on desert. I Yelp desert, and came across The Upper Crust. I was excited. -We weren't aware it was in the same building as an ice cream shop. A nice couple directed us to the back of the bldg where people were seated for outside eating. We walked in and shuffled around a bit because the spot is really small and three other people were in there. We were handed a menu that had sandwiches and croissants. ??? I looked around and saw a small ice cream board. Then behind me was a board for desserts. Very confusing since the shop is called The Upper Crust. Anyway, we saw my fav. Lemon Bars! I think they were $1.25 each. We got 2. A cow puddle cookie and a snickerdoodle cookie. I think my friend got some type of raspberry something plus two small cups of vanilla ice cream. I asked if the ice cream was made in-house. Lady said they get it from Gerber in Winchester. (which I am familiar with.) We put our goods on a tray and sat in the back, outside at a table. Took out my lemon bar. It didn't look like a traditional lemon bar. I bit into it..it didn't taste like a lemon bar either. Should a little custard-y..but it's not my shop. I put some ice cream on it and ate it a-la mode. I did like the crust wasn't full of sugary Graham crackers but had oatmeal incorporated. I appreciate that. The snickerdoodle was a bit less than exciting. Just a cookie. Rather dull. - Upper Crust had 5 pies for sale within view, an L shaped showcase of cookies, ice cream and, more-so, sandwiches and croissants. I was disappointed. Especially with the lemon bar but also in general. I'm not saying I wouldn't come back to get a $1.50 brownie but I'd prob look for better options in town, first. read more

Cow piles cookies are addictive, tastes simple but oh so good. Sandwiches were fine. Service tad slow, probably under staff. Nice outdoor dining area in back. Stopped by for quick lunch after strawberry picking. Middlebury such a quaint town. read more

Truly love this old building and how it's been preserved. Felt like I was being transported back in time when I walked in this establishment. It added that extra layer of nostalgia which for me warmed my heart. Sweet lady took my order with a recommendation of the cow puddle, also got a rasberry something bar. Huge fan of the thin cookie, had a nice chew n crisp to it. The bar was also really good. I guess the best way to describe it was eating at grandma's house. You can taste the love that went into each treat. I will be back next time Im in the area to try more of their offerings. read more

Love their pies! Try to go during non- "prime" hours to avoid long lines. It's a cash-only place. Pies are around $19. I wish their popular jingleberry pie also came with the option of No-sugar-glaze on top (it used to be my favorite but over the years, it became too sweet for my taste). Strawberry rhubarb pie was baked that same morning - and was deelish ! right amount of fillings of fresh strawberries (not too sweet, yay!) and that awesome crust recipe !!! Staff need to learn to process the line tad faster though. read more

The cookies were fresh made and delicious !!! They tasted homemade. They was a line but it moved quickly. It's a cute local store.

As a surprise present for me, my wife was visiting Vienna and stopped in Middleburg one day in May and bought Cow Puddles and Jingleberry pie to bring home to me in Florida. Everytime I am in the DC area I try to stop there. While I don't travel often any more my wife was able to provide me with some happy moments and great tastes. Thanks Jean and thanks Upper Crust for a favorite. read more

We tried a few things. Cow puddle cookie - very thin but still chewy and delicious Coconut chewy cookie - tasty Snickerdoodle - good The 2 other items we tried - chocolate chip buttercream sandwich and some sort of cookie bar with Carmel and nuts - were not good at all and we didn't finish them. We'd visit again for the cow puddles if we happened to be in Middleburg, but wouldn't make the trip just to visit. read more

We stopped in here to get a sandwich and what a place. The service was quick and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this place as not only is the food good but the prices are fair and the people who work there are friendly and professional. read more

On a side street, just off Main, with a tiny front porch, littered with chalkboards touting daily specials, I spotted a place to which I was immediately drawn. A bakery with fresh cookies, pies, breads, cakes and classic sandwiches made to order. It is overwhelming the array of fresh baked goods piled high on tables and filling the glass display cases. I wanted to take a bite of everything. I enjoyed a hearty chicken salad sandwich, complete with grapes and almonds on their home-made rye bread. The chicken was pure, fresh and delicious-- no funky cartilage chunks or like-- *wtf did I just bite into* moments with this sandwich. It was so good my mom and I actually ate there the next day and got the same thing! (I am usually more adventurous and want to tackle menus, but I was craving this sandwich). There are several tables behind the restaurant for pleasant outdoor dining. For desert I had an Okie Cookie-- two chocolate chip cookies with vanilla butter-cream frosting in the center. I paired that with a 2% milk. Highly recommend. read more

HOLY Home baked cookies BATMAN! Have you ever had a Mutton Button? Two lovely butter shortbread layers with a chocolate center in a bite sized cookie. How about a chocolate snickerdoodle? Maybe you're feeling like a sandwich for lunch or a pie for after dinner. Or maybe you want a little antique chaucke' with your cookie. In any case, this smallish deli like eatery looks run down - but the food is definitely worth the time and the prices are AMAZINGLY inexpensive... but don't tell them I said that! Bottom Line: Do not let the google map fool you, this is right off US Route 50 near the Safeway in the main part of Middleburg... because if you do, you'll never get the best and most unique home made cookies in Virginia. read more

This place had so many good reviews we were really excited to try it. Not sure if we came on a bad day but we were pretty disappointed with most of what we purchased. The ice cream was extremely grainy, very bizarre texture. The cookies on the ice cream sandwiches were hard as rocks. Their classic chocolate chip cookies were pretty decent and their "cow puddle" cookie had a really great flavor but was also extremely hard. read more

I'm not usually a "plain Jane" sandwich person. I like my sammy's toasted, or with a little crunchy bacon, or some special dressing. But I had a turkey-and-swiss on the fluffiest, most delicious light wheat bread from The Upper Crust, and I gotta say, it has renewed my belief in the deliciousness of a simple sandwich. The bread must have been house made, because it was PERFECT. Big and fluffy to begin with, smooshes down a little in your hands just enough to fit in your mouth. And there was practically half a turkey on my sandwich, I think, it was pretty hefty. My only possible complaint was that the mayo was a bit too generous - but then, some people like their mayo, so I'll just remember ask them to take it easy next time. I'll be back. And next time I'm getting one of those wicked sounding cookies Peter M. raved about. read more

Every time I've been here the food had been pretty good. I ordered the Chickadee sandwich this last time and it was good but the chicken portion was smaller than usual. The reports about poor customer service are correct though. The young lady who took my order was personable and helpful. The lady who rung me up couldn't care that I was frequenting her establishment. On top of that, every sandwich except one in their board was marked with a $5.95 price. I was charged $6.95 and offered no receipt. Basically I got a $5.95 sandwich and a small bag of chips for somewhere around $9.50. It's only a dollar, and I let it go, but that coupled with the unfriendliness I've decided to spend my money elsewhere from now on. read more

I absolutely LOVE this place. I have been coming here since I was a little girl learning how to ride horses in Middleburg. One thing I must say is that the hours are not posted anywhere online or at The Upper Crust. I went by this past weekend and asked them what their hours were: Monday-Saturday - Open at 7:30am and close at 4:00pm Sunday - Open at 8:30am and close around 2:30/3:00pm (depending on how it goes). NOW, on to the food. They make their food daily, including breads, cookies, pies, etc. I usually get their sourdough bread (so yummy and soft with a nice crunchy crust). They have amazing BLTs and Chicken BBQ Sandwiches (with or without the slaw). Every year, we go to the Upper Crust to pick up pies for Thanksgiving (Pumpkin, Pecan, Sweet Potato, and more). They also have other pies such as Lemon Meringue Pie, French Silk Pie, and Chocolate Meringue Pie (my favorite). They have a lot of different cookies to choose from: chocolate chip cookies, horse-shaped sugar cookies (with and without icing), smores bars, lemon bars, cow puddles, snickerdoodles, molasses cookies, peanut butter blossom cookies, and so much more! There is some seating available. There are a few tables on the deck behind the store, along with an indoor seating area. Parking is sometimes tricky. You can either find parking alone route 50 (runs through the middle of town), along one of the side streets, or in the Safeway Parking lot (which you aren't supposed to do, but I have never gotten in trouble for a 30 minute meal). Lastly. This is very important! They do not except credit cards. They only take CASH or CHECK. There is an atm located across the street if you forget. read more

When you walk in the place seems tiny, but if you walk through the door next to the service counter there is a nice little patio area and a pretty out-building with some indoor seating. The food was delicious; my sandwich was on thick slices of clearly homemade and fresh bread, had plenty of meat and veggies, and tasted great. As I was leaving I grabbed a couple of cookies and a loaf of rye bread for the road because they looked so good. The snickerdoodles were good, but the shortbread with chocolate chips and the chocolate chip cookies with frosting were even better. The rye bread was the best I've had in years, but if you don't like your rye with caraway seeds you may want to stick with another type of bread instead! Next time I am passing through I will be going back, and if I may even try to get one of their pies in my saddlebags. read more

When you dust off your bike shoes and you are training for a half Iron Man, The Upper Crust is a mandatory stop along your training ride. 15 miles into our ride, our bikes were on auto pilot and stopped here. Quaint, unassuming, incredible pastries, cookies and scones. I wish they had a location in Alexandria Old Town... But if they did, I wouldn't trust myself! best by far. read more

The Upper Crust - A couple delicious cookies to carb up while biking. - Bakeries Near Me - Middleburg, Virginia

Lovely little bakery! Tried their signature "cow puddle" cookie as well as the classic chocolate chip. Both were super yummy. Not the huge, chewy kind.. but they remind you of what grandma used to make :) Decent selection of other scrumptious goodies too and the service was great. Small sitting area on the front porch and nearby benches as well. Off-street parking is probably your best bet. read more

Cute and homey bakery. Super low prices! If you're looking for something homemade and simple, you'll be totally satisfied. If you're in search of a trendy, high class patisserie, you may not find something to tickle your fancy. read more

This is the best bakery. The cutest little place in the heart of Middleburg! Everything they make is phenomenal--I love their sandwiches and their happy trails cookie is the best cookie I've ever had (and I've had a lot ). Upper crust is a must try! read more

The ice cream is so good. We had peach and vanilla, and the portion is big! The service is nice.

I'm usually pretty forgiving but this weekend marked the second time out of the last three times I've been there that I have literally walked out after 10 minutes of standing in line. When I was finally able to get into the store, I could see an older gal that works there busying herself behind the counter and I assumed that she was preparing somebody's order but then was shocked when she finally looked at the customer in front of me after 3-4 minutes and sullenly asked. Who's next? While the line Of customers was out the door!! Quite honestly, I think the only reason they are still in business is because they're relatively cheap by Middleburg standards. The prices just aren't worth the lack of service though. Done! read more

Pros: The baked goods are phenomenal. I love the Okey Dokey, two cookies sandwiched with frosting in the middle. I've tried several items and loved them all. The location is great (just off the main street). Cons: Cash only. They are incredibly rude. I have been a handful of times and the rudeness is consistent. They make you feel like they would rather be anywhere but there helping you. I haven't been greeted once. Even when I say "hi" and start to order they don't really speak unless it's to tell me the total. I continue to bear it because the treats are so tasty. The layout is awkward, but not terrible. Summary: When I want a sweet treat, and I'm in the area, I may withstand the rudeness because those Okey Dokies are so damn good. read more

The Snickerdoodles, Chocolate Mint, and Oatmeal Chocolate-chip cookies were very hard. They are not normally like this! Are they selling old cookies today?!!! If I was nearby, I would have returned them. Almost chipped my tooth on one of them. Also got the Salamander sandwich. It was tasty but had only one very thin slice of cheese and turkey on it. read more

I don't get the appeal of this place. The quality of their cookies is equal to the messed-up batches I trash when I bake at home. The cookies I've had here have always been dry and overloaded with sugar. There is no playful balance amongst all the ingredients in the cookie, which are mostly likely all processed and refined. Save your money and learn to bake with quality ingredients at home, people. Limited seating. Hit or miss quality of customer service, esp with the younger employees. The dark-haired lady and the older gentleman have been consistently agreeable. read more

Every single person that has given the Upper Crust less than 5 stars has no idea what they are talking about. This place is an institution. The staff is VERY friendly and know all the regulars by name, meaning almost every family in Middleburg. The owner FREQUENTLY will give out free fresh-baked absolutely fantastic Chocolate Chip cookies. Everything here is always amazing INCLUDING the friendly staff. I have no idea what that woman is talking about saying no one ever smiles. I have been going there for 20 years and am always extremely satisfied with the service, food and atmosphere. If you need more space to stand, go outside to the back patio or wait for your food in the dining area in the building out back. The space is small because it is in an old historical home, something which Middleburg prides itself on keeping intact throughout the town. We don't want it to be stuffy and sterilized and huge. read more

I've been to this bakery several times and always enjoyed everything. Every time I go there I always want to get what I had last time, plus a few new to try. Eventually, I'm probably going to end up buying one of everything! I think the 'smore bar is my favorite. I've never tried any of their savory food items, but it looks like a good spot to stop and grab sandwiches for a fast picnic or if you're just passing through to go hiking somewhere else. I also love that you can get soft serve ice cream served between their cookies or on top of some of their other treats. I can't tell you how much I regret not getting a serving of soft serve on top of an apple dumpling the last time I was there. It's in a very unobtrusive spot on the street and if you're not looking for it you might not see it. Just look to the left of the Safeway parking lot. read more

Favorite place to visit when I used to compete on the east coast ! Loved there bacon croissants and eating chocolate chip cookies !! Love me some cow puddles !!! read more

The best bakery in the NOVA region. Are you sick and tired of "pretty" cupcakes and baked goods that just taste like "sugar" and want something that actually tastes good? This is the place. Everything looks and tastes like it's homemade, made from scratch, with love. Prices are reasonable. Not sure if they take credit cards now? So bring cash or check. The jingle berry pie is a family favorite (soooo good). The Jimmy cake is a personal favorite of mine. And I also love the s'mores bars if I have a sweet tooth. My brother loves the okie dokie cookies (very sugary sweet!). I tried the lemon meringue pie this past summer and it was amazing! Lemon bars are perfect and rich! Sandwiches are good too, especially on a fresh croissant! read more

I've been coming here since I was a young child. The cow puddles are AMAZING. I love their croissants, sandwiches and pies as well. There are only 2 cons- 1. cash only 2. the hours. Sometimes I've come during times that I thought they would be open, and they've been closed. If I had my choice, they'd be open 24/7 :) Perfect bakery for a cool town. read more

Very Tasty Pies My wife and I both like their pies very much. Their breakfast sandwiches are good as well. I am especially fond of the coconut cream and my wife likes the chocolate chiffon. Very tasty and fattening of course. read more
