Upper Crust is next-level Delish! Their quiches, savory & sweet croissants and cinnamon rolls are the Best in Austin! We also adore the kind, cool employees & adorable space in Rosedale. Highest recommendation.
Very quaint bakery with quality ingredients. I had the bacon quiche … absolutely delightful. You really can’t go wrong here.
We absolutely LOVE Upper Crust - it’s such a great neighborhood bakery. The Dutch Apple Pie and their Carrot Cake (our two go-to desserts) are the BEST in the city. For breakfast, the cinnamon rolls are a must, and their sausage rolls are outstanding, too. If you’re looking for the best bakery in town, look no further than Upper Crust!
Best cinnamon buns! Their chocolate croissants are also incredible. Also very kind staff.
The kind of bakery and café every neighborhood should have. I had the green salad— wonderfully fresh ingredients and a house made balsamic vinaigrette. along with a generous made just right tuna salad. I took a slice of coconut cream pie to go -perfection! Just the right amount of sweetness. You can also pre-order bread — they have sourdough which is a challenge to find here. Their prices are very reasonable and I also appreciate the friendly service!⭐️
Got the sausage puff and strawberry croissant and it was delicious. Customer service was the best.You can ask for pastries to be warmed. 10/10
I ordered my husband’s birthday cake here. It was perfect and well priced. The staff were so kind. Highly recommend for custom cakes.
Love this bakery, cannot say enough good things about Upper Crust. It is an Austin icon. Great spot to take visitors. Every item is amazing especially their cakes & cinnamon rolls. Been going here over 35 years & it’s the same high quality pastries every time.
I've been looking for a new cake place and I have struck gold! Upper Crust Bakery is AMAZING – their cakes and pies are freaking awesome and worth every single calorie. Every bite is a celebration of flavor and texture that will keep me coming back. The chocolate Italian cake blew me away with its moist layers, hints of ginger for that subtle spicy kick, and coconut woven in just right to add a tropical chew without overpowering the deep, fudgy chocolate. The lemon buttermilk cake was delightfully tangy. Their Italian cream cake nails the classic with nutty pecans, sweet cream cheese frosting, and tender cake that's impossible to resist. Shockingly, I preferred the chocolate Italian cream, but I wouldn't turn any slice away from this shop. And don't sleep on the Dutch apple pie – warm cinnamon-spiced apples in a buttery, crumbly topping that feels like homemade heaven, with just the right sweet-tart balance. I cannot wait to go back!
Can't believe I have never been here before. Stopped in for lunch and had the hardest time deciding - so many delicious looking soups, sandwiches and salads. We landed on the chicken salad sandwich and egg salad sandwich. Both were fantastic. We picked up some pastries to go for breakfast - they were incredible. Lots of seating, fresh quality ingredients, and excellent service. Wish we had something like this in our neighborhood - I would be here all the time. Bread was fresh and had black tea and hibiscus mint which I love. Will be back!
