Always quality and tasty baked goods. Don't forget to try the savory items, like quiches, as well. The Earl Grey scone is wonderful and the croissants are always fresh. It's great to try a variety of flavors like almond chocolate croissant.

So good! Very buttery and delicious pastries. I got an oat milk lavender iced latte and it was one of the best latte’s I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!

Busy busy bakery with lots of pastries 🥐 available. Coffee as well, I got the Nutella croissant, very flaky and crispy, wished it had more Nutella

Continue to be dismayed at the inefficiency of the operational procedures and timely preparation of product. When it takes 15 minutes to get a specialty coffee, just stop offering them - do self help drip and move customers through. How do you end up with 8 employees walking around the back and one up front on the espresso machine? Invest in wireless ccard devices - take easy orders in line. Cut 10 minutes waiting to get a loaf down to 60 seconds. Product is tasty, and the staff are pleasant, but the storefront operation model is dysfunctional. Have ideas.

My favorite bakery in all of Gainesville! Can’t go wrong with any baked goods, but also my favorite pimento cheese

A bit disappointed in the food and customer experience. Came in around 5:30 to get some rosemary rolls that were delicious but come to find out, not only were all the baked goods out but that one of the staff appeared to be irritated by me coming in. No apology or suggestion to pre-order in advance. Ended up getting cheese rolls at Fresh Market.

Lots of easy, free parking allows you to pop into Uppercrust and try whatever catches your eye or chat with one of the helpful staff. We tried the daily vegetarian quiche, goat cheese and Herbes de Provence. We ate it before I remembered to take a photo😝 Creamy and worth the $. I would not mind just a hint more herbs ;) Next up Fleur au Pistache - $5, crusty, crunchy and soft inside. Perfect with a cup of tea or coffee. Last was (apologies, I forgot the name) a mixture of everything bagel and croissant filled with cream cheese! Too big for one sitting, even for two… try a bit…😘 share a bit! On our way home we will stop back in and pick up a chocolate tart, a few cookies and perhaps a cup of soup (they had carrot ginger). There are a few seats outside for a small group but for larger groups, take home ;) Go, enjoy, again and again!

What I like the most about this place is the fresh coffee and customer service, their staff is friendly and joyful, and it's funny because If you enjoy baking you can see the staff while making bread! To me that was lovely, i even made some mimics of bread making tenics to one employee and took it so well!

Bought a few croissants and cookies. Usually are delicious but unfortunately not today. Tasted stale. Probably would have been better off going next door to Fresh Market. Disappointing.

The people were really nice and everything looked amazing but the taste was only ok. On the sweet side, we got a guava danish-like thing, an apricot filled croissant and a flourless chocolate cookie. The fillings for both croissanty things were delicious, but the croissant dough itself was crunchy and tough, rather than flaky and puffy. The flourless cookie was nice and chocolatey like fudge brownie batter but was super sweet (it definitely needed a cup of strong espresso to mellow out the sweetness) and had kind of grainy texture like the sugar hadn't incorporated very well. On the savory side, we got a tomato/cheese covered pretzel and again, the flavor was good, but the texture of the dough was off -- more bready than dense pretzel chewy -- and a sourdough loaf. We were very excited that they will slice it thick. The crust was nice and crunchy, but it wasn't sour at all and the inside of the bread was too fluffy and we wished it were more liked the pretzel. All in all, the people are really sweet so I might go back and try something else but wouldn't make it a priority.

We showed up about dinnertime hoping to grab dessert and the cases were all completely empty. There was one quiche, a couple small cakes, and a few eclairs. That was it. For a bakery to have almost nothing in their case was very disappointing.

Met a couple girlfriends to talk about stuff. A little pricey but the almond croissant was yummy.

Wonderful as always! Food is excellent. Definitely worth a trip if you've never been! 😊 Great selection of Jellycat stuffed animals too! Especially after a new shipment comes in!

Fantastic coffee, delicious pastries and great customer service! We came a little late in the day, but they still had a good selection of bakery items. Definitely will come again! The only issue was I did not like the sugar cookies. I’m not sure if it’s the icing, but it tasted a little like citrus cleaner instead of a sweet cookie. But that could just be a me issue, of course. Everything else was great :)

Uppercrust ~ Wow! For our company Galentine's Day we wanted to do wine tasting and stumbled across Uppercrust. From the very beginning communication with the Uppercrust team was easy and effortless. The manager Ben oversaw the entire event, communicated consistently, and made sure everything was as we desired. Even when we had a few last minute request, Ben was incredibly gracious and accommodating. The day of the event we were able to swing by an hour early just to see the last minute finishes, and the entire set up exceeded our expectations (by the way we 10/10 recommend adding cheeses and chocolates to your event)! Long story short, thank you to the Uppercrust team for making our Galentine's a success. If you're looking for a place to host your event or simply want to experience a wine tasting definitely reach out to Uppercrust!

Outstanding. At same level as any top notch French bakery in Florida. Masters of puff pastry. Excellent quiches, best I have ever had in the US.
