Came last night to celebrate my mom's bday. I realize now that it was my first time coming for dinner. In the past I've always been to brunch and lunch. I was surprised to find their dinner time clientele a lil sparse. We had jus a bit of a wait while they got together some tables because we were a party of 6 plus 1. Our server was great - friendly and efficient. I usually have a hard time choosing what to have because everything always sounds so yummy, and I just wanna try it all! I debated between a sandwich, a pizza, and 2 pasta dishes. Before I tell you what I had, lemme just say their pizzas are so freaking delicious. The crust is perfect and the whole thing is baked in a brick oven, which to me, should be the only way to bake a pizza. So instead of ordering the margarita pizza (my all-tine favorite) I decided on the pasta & meatball dish. It came out looking pretty but the taste was a disappointment. Bland, bland, and bland. No matter how much S&P I added, along with more cheese & crushed red peppers, I just kinda pushed it along and forced myself to eat. It wasn't cheap and I was hungry. Thankfully though, I ordered us some calamari and beer cheese fries. Calamari was pretty basic but served with a sweet chili sauce... I still like marinara better. The beer cheese fries was the winner of the night!!!!! My son ordered their shrimp and crab pasta and that just looked bland. He seemed to have liked it because there wasn't much left but he wasn't raving about it like he normally would have over a delicious dish. Boyfriend ordered their pizza and poor him had to share with his daughter who ordered their salmon and kale salad, and my son as well. Note to self next time I am torn between what to order there: Always choose the pizza. Always. I gave it 4 stars because I truly enjoy their new decor and because I've been there so many times and u know their food is delicious. Minus 1 star for bland pasta dishes. read more

While Baker's Crust isn't a bad restaurant, I have left simultaneously satisfied and disappointed at the same time, twice now - hence 3 stars. On my first visit, we came for brunch. The breakfast food we ordered was awesome, but the sandwich and side dish was not very good. Mainly lacking flavor, wow-factor or anything that would make me order it again. I came back Friday night to try their dinner and had the same mediocre experience - a very cramped restaurant with inattentive servers and an awesome dish (Mushroom Brie soup and Tomato Cheese Soup), but once again, the sandwiches were both just ok. The Chicken Guacamole sandwich was super boring and whoever made it didn't seem to have any attention to detail, because things were just thrown on it here and there. The Chicken Tuscan Grinder was just ok too. Overall, this place is too small, understaffed and the food that I've had is just ok. I would come back though to try other things on the menu, because they have a lot that looks good. read more

This place had really great food! Some of the best French Toast I've ever had. The only reason I'm giving 4/5 stars was for the atmosphere. It was very loud even though there weren't that many people and the location is small. For some reason the sound felt amplified. Also, the hightop chairs that we sat on were pretty uncomfortable and it didn't seem like they had comfortable chairs throughout the rest of the restaurant either. It was our first time here and it was very nice that the manager came over and gave us complimentary parmesan homemade chips. They were so delicious! We will definitely be coming back to Baker's Crust but maybe when they are less busy/noisey. read more

OMG! 1st time here and had the smoked chipotle Gouda burger (heaven) and hubby had the stout green chili cheddar burger (also heaven). Bartender recommended the sparkling citrus pineapple sangria which was yum and hubby had the star hill off tap.... Great experience. Perfect bartender, outstanding burgers....just wish they invest in some purse hooks at their gorgeous bar. Will definitely try this place again. read more

Run, don't walk! My husband and I came here for lunch during restaurant week. We each got a 3-course meal so that we could try everything and share. We could have shared just one 3-course meal. Everything was amazing. The crepe will change your life. read more

This is one of my favorite spots to grab lunch - weekday or weekend! Delicious food - lots of menu items from healthy sandwiches and salads to wood-fired pizzas. Don't even get me started on their dessert options...! This time I went with a seafood pasta entree and was not disappointed. Delicious and a large enough portion for me to get to eat it twice (boxed up some for dinner)! read more

Baker's Crust - Crab, shrimp & asparagus lasagna - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

After reading a review of Sunday Feb 26 in the Pilot we decided to try the Bakers Crust Pizza. What a disappointment! I ordered a pepperoni pizza expecting that "best around" pizza crust talked about in the review. What was received looked like it had been drenched in grease or oil of some sort with actual puddles of same liquid in spots. The crust was saturated and looked and tasted like soaked cardboard. I asked the waitress if they had put too much olive oil on the pizza and she informed me that they did not add oil and that was the grease from the pepperoni and cheese. This was at the location at the beach. Perhaps the other locations can do better but I will not be trying them. read more

TL;DR - From start to finish, great decor and environment, friendly and professional staff, great food. Got an appetizer, and two soups and sandwich combos for $30 total. I WILL be coming here again, and I WILL requesting Eric. I would love to see Tracy again too. I recently came here for the first time the other day with my mother, just having a nice meal after doing a bunch of thrift store shopping. She suggested Baker's Crust since I've never been here before and she knows I love soups and sandwiches. We walk inside to be amazed by the decor, very modern and dark/neutral colors which I love. This was new to my mother because I guess she hasn't been there in 10 years haha. There was no one at the front to greet us, which is no big deal, so we waited a few minutes and asked if we could sit anywhere. It was around 3 in the afternoon, and our server, Eric, suggested we eat at the bar for the Happy Hour deals. However, we sat at a booth because we're old and have bad backs. Eric was very professional and friendly, and answered all my questions and was extremely patient with me. I guess they had a soup and sandwich combo or something that was $10 and some change, which isn't a bad price at all. However, I was stuck between the clam chowder and the tomato soup. Eric suggested the clam chowder and offered me a sample of each to try out. The clam chowder was untouchable. Eric brought us some more bread for the Oven Roasted Goat Cheese, which was to die for. I also had the Smoke Turkey BLT with my soup. A woman was walking around, checking on tables and on here employees. She was even helping check people out and bringing dishes to the back. One could only assume was a manager, she cam over and approached us and was very joyful and outgoing. She introduced herself as Tracy. She asked if we needed anything, and she heard it was my first time there. She asked how everything was and if I was enjoying my visit. When we were about to leave, I asked Eric to get a manager for me. So Tracy came back over and I made sure to tell her about how amazing my visit was. From start to finish, great decor and environment, friendly and professional staff, great food, and I went into detail about how I also manage a restaurant near by and wanted her to know how great Eric was, that I would love to have him work for me. I told her I always try to give credit where credit is due, especially when 90% of the time when a person wants to talk to a manager, it's not a good thing. She thanked me, talked about my restaurant and then we talked about an event they were about to have. read more

The food here is absolutely incredible. They are strong believers in farm to plate dining and it is obvious in the taste that they take great care in crafting their meals. The chicken and waffles, as well as their chicken and avocado sandwich are possibly the best things on the menu. But you really can't go wrong. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is comfortable but still classy. It is a great place to take family and friends for great food, a full bar and creative cocktails. The only reason I give it four stars instead of five is because of the service. I have been to several locations and it seems to be the same everywhere. The service is mediocre. We rarely got refills on drinks, had to ask multiple times for condiments and napkins, etc. The server seemed a bit scattered and was fairly inattentive. It was, by no means, the worst service I have had, but it did affect the experience. Overall, great place to eat! read more

My husband and I have lived in Virginia Beach all our adults lives and the Baker's Crust has been a go-to dining experience, as a couple or with friends, for over 30 years. You can always count on the food and atmosphere to be warm and satisfying, served by a friendly, effusive staff. However... Today around 4 o'clock, we walked up for a quick late lunch/early dinner when it isn't so busy. There was trash strewn all over the front of the storefront. We almost decided to go elsewhere but went in because we love the place. I told the waitress first thing and she said she, too, noticed it when she arrived for her shift, where she reported it to the manager. She said she was glad I told her and would reiterate the issue to the manager. Before we left I visited to restroom, which was a mess and there was no TP! When we walked out, the trash was still present out in front. It saddens me to see the neglectful manner in which this was handled. read more

Love it. Don't normally like places like this. Staff is friendly, they always do samples of stuff and then usually the samples are so good you add it to your order. Wine is great. Atmosphere is nice and food always hits. read more

So I don't mind a little char on stone fire pizza but this is little excessive. But I did pickup, staying at hotel, and exhausted and thought screw it I'll take a bite. Gross. The middle was raw. I suggest if you order pickup - check the pizza before you leave. I will be passing on this place. UPDATE - spoke to Management. Was handled very professionally. I would still check that pizza before I leave but would give them a 2nd chance. read more

Baker's Crust - Char Pizza - ew! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Their sweet potato chicken biscuit (whatever it is called) is way better than anything at Handsome Biscuit. I removed a star because last time we went, we liked our coffee cups so much we asked if we could pay for them and have them. The waitress added them to our tab and was very accomodating. On the way out we were glared at by the other employees that were ignorant to what had happened and they ran outside to accuse us of stealing. Not cool. Very not cool. So it's a good spot, it just isn't cool to be accused of theft, especially when it is over a freaking coffee mug that nobody even cares about it in the first place read more

Wow! Went for breakfast Saturday Morning & the atmosphere was fantastic! The hosts at the door were wonderful & our server Eric was the bomb! He was just himself, which is what made it work so well for us (my wife & I) The presentation of our order was over the top. When the order was brought to the table it looked so good I felt I was in the country on a beautiful day...which led me to eat the whole thing! The manager was also very polite & professional & thanked me for my interest in the quality of the whole experience. We go for lunch mostly, but will start making regular breakfast visits too. Once again Eric rocked the service, thanks Eric! read more

Wife ordered soup to go for $7 was expecting a bowl got a shot glass worth of soup, they don't even offer different sizes. Good soup Very disappointing service and choice in size and value. What happened to the Garlic Parmesan Baguette? read more

Although this place was one of our to-go breakfast restaurants; this was our first time during the pandemic. They did a good job of leaving spaces between the tables. Our server was also working at the bar, therefore by the time we could ask for some butter, I almost finished the breakfast. We tried 2 different omelets, they were both tasty. But the salad with shrimp was lacking sauce, the lettuces were almost dry (the restaurant became more stingy during the pandemic I assume), and, the three-cheese panini was not panini at all; the first served one came out with one side burned, and I know burnt food is the enemy of your liver. We asked them to replace it, which they did. The real problem with the so call "Panini" is, it was a good old grilled cheese sandwich made with regular wheat toast bread, very disappointed. read more

This was definitely and surely the WORST experience my friends and I have EVER had at a restaurant before (and we've been to MANY). We get sat down, and our waiter takes FOREVER to even take down our order. She updated us ONCE, in the entire hour and half we had waited for our food. She wasn't even the one who brought us our food. Then, we finally get our SALADS AND HALF SANDWICHES, which were mediocre. We were starving and it was still trashy. The mozzarella was the shit you find at dollar general! Our waiter, never checked on us, when she refilled our water (ONCE) she didn't even ask us how we food was. Since we had waited a ridiculous amount of time, the manager offered us free dessert. How nice...you would think. They gave us a limited dessert menu, so 2 of us ordered a slice of cake, and 1 is us (the unfortunate one) ordered a skillet cookie. We waited another half hour and it came out BURNT. It was black and charred. It wasn't even busy when we had went, there was over 10 waiters and waitresses there, and the restaurant wasn't even filled to half capacity. There was no wait to get seated yet we were there for over 2 hours. read more

This is another review I hate to write. Honestly I did not know that I had not written a review since I have been eating here for over 17 years I guess that it just never occurred to me that I hadn't. Maybe I need to look at more places I used to eat at BY (Before Yelp). So this was a place that I have enjoyed for many years and usually tried to go once every month or two. For some reason before the remodel I had just sort of lost interest in the food here it seemed as if it just was not as good as it used to be. I remember eating here many times and having soggy chips and it just seemed the tomato cheddar soup was not the same as I remembered having over the years. So my friend and I stopped in this weekend for lunch and again it was just ok nothing great. I had a sandwich and the tomato cheddar soup my friend had eggs benedict. The soup like I said before was just ok years ago I remember it being great. Sandwich was ok I don't even remember which one I ordered that is how memorable it was. My friend said her meal was good but again not great. I'm sorry for the prices they charge the food should be much better and it used to be. $6.20 for a cup of soup is kind of high priced when it's not simply outstanding! It had been a few years since I had been in I was hoping they had returned to previous quality. Anyway it was good to try an old favorite once again, but I just do not see myself being a regular customer again I'm sorry to say. read more

If you like New York style pizza, this place is not the restaurant you want to go. We got the margherita pizza and it was thin crust but didn't have that crunch of a pizza that I personally like. The price for the pizza was reasonable but maybe I'll change my review if I try something different. read more

This is a nice place to grab a quick lunch at Hiltop near the oceanfront. Great soups, salads and sandwiches. The crepes are so delicious for desserts. It's not easy to find a restaurant with crepes.

This is the third opportunity I've given bakers crust and for the final time they have monumentally disappointed. I order take out and I stand at the bar for minutes on end with the bartender just drinking water on his phone, I'm starring him down and he does care. Finally looks at me and asks if I'm picking up an order. I asked for extra sauces on the side because they are extremely EXTREMELY stingy with their sides and sauces. He said it's in the bag, I guess it's my fault for taking their word for it, I get home look in the bag no extra sauces just one pathetic sauces and a horribly deconstructed sandwich. Thanks bakers crust hilltop location for being so dissatisfying! read more

4 star reviews made us want to check this place out today while on vacation. My husband got a bacon burger with an over easy egg on it and said it was really good. My daughter got the mac n cheese which she ate and enjoyed (she is a very picky eater). I got an omlette, and boy was it tasty! The sweet potato fries were really good as well. We went back two days later. Hubby got a chicken/mozzerella/tomato sandwich on sourdough. Once again, he really enjoyed his meal. Daughter got mac n cheese again, and I got a wedge salad. The salad was great. The blue cheese dressing and bacon on top were delicious. The service both days we went, was great! The only con was that there were only 2 gender neutral bathrooms....and pretty much always someone waiting. read more

This review is for their breakfast menu only. I frequently eat breakfast here and can't say enough about the high quality ingredients in the breakfast food. While the chicken and waffles is a personal favorite, I've tried every omelet on the menu and have never been disappointed. The Southern Belle, buttermilk fried chicken on a sweet potato biscuit is also fantastic. There are no powdered eggs here and one cannot even compare to the garbage you might find at IHOP or some similar "restaurant". All that being said, if you're coming after 10AM on a weekend, prepare for a wait and considerably slower service throughout your meal. If you're eating solo or with one other, my recommendation is to sit at the bar. Service at the bar is quick and I've always had an enjoyable experience. read more

Crispy buttermilk battered chicken, paired with a fluffy, but delicately mild waffle. Topped off with syrup and it was about the best breakfast I've had in a while! Great friendly waiter as well; really made the meal that much better. read more

Excellent drinks nice and heavy handed but if you like too much salt in your food then it this is the place for you.

Well, the fries were so good. I ordered the mushroom burger. It had an odd familiar taste that i didn't like but couldn't pinpoint. My kid ordered a cheese pizza and it came out huge . I expected a kids size pizza. The waitress took my food that I was still eating and chewing on and that leaves a worse taste in my mouth than the burger did. I'm one and done. read more

Friendly and timely service. Great variety and the dad's were sizable, fresh, lots of flavor and great price points

I frequently patronize Bakers Crust in the Hilltop shopping center and when in Richmond, their short pump location. Not sure what's going on, if they have franchised or not but seeing_tasting a clear difference between locations. Also, do they have a new baker? the breads are a bit 'off' in Hilltop, lettuce came out wilty on my salad and they served my wife a sour ketchup in a dish with her burger & fries. I love you guys, please have someone do better at quality controlling. read more
