People rave about the fruit pies here and maybe that's where I went wrong, because I didn't get a…read morefruit pie, but I am very sad that I had to give this place such a low rating. Walking into the bakery felt like stepping into a pastry lover's dream. The warm aroma of freshly baked bread and sweet confections filled the air, and the presentation was nothing short of picture-perfect. Every cake, pie, and cookie looked as though it belonged in a high-end magazine and I found myself salivating over every sweet concoction. But sadly, the taste didn't live up to the visual appeal. Despite the bakery's inviting atmosphere, the flavors fell flat, lacking the richness and depth I had hoped for. The confectionary sugars were tasteless and dry. It's frustrating when something looks and smells incredible but doesn't deliver where it truly counts--on the palate. We got the Cow Patty cake which is like a no bake cookie on top of a chocolate cake: the top was ok but crumbled when you tried to cut it, and the chocolate cake below was very dry from being overbaked. I was super excited to see she had Hot Cross Buns which I had always wanted to try but never found a bakery that sold them. Once again I was left very disappointed. The bun itself was very dry and the cross on top was so hard you could not eat it. I was literally able to peel the cross off the bun and it did not break. The last thing we got was what I think was a Chocolate Chunk Pecan Pie ??? It was like a chocolate chess pie with pecans and chunks of chocolate baked into it. Once again very disappointed. The pie should have been sweet but was very lack luster and flavorless. One bright spot, however, was the owner who was pleasant despite the culinary shortcomings. I appreciate her kindness and the effort she put into creating such a beautiful space, but when it comes to flavor, there's room for improvement. Here's hoping future visits bring a better balance between the bakery's stunning presentation and the taste of its creations.

Airy and we arrived at Granny Ruth's right as they opened. The shop itself is so stinking cute! We walked in to a full case, full counter, and full racks of cakes, cookies, breads, etc. The folks were so nice and so helpful! I got one of their peanut butter eggs and it was to die for!! I could've eaten five of them (and been miserable, haha!). We got several different selections and they were all enjoyed! Granny Ruth's also has coffee drinks you can order while stopping in. They are worth the visit! I can't wait to go back.

Go visit for yourself and you'll see what I mean. Yumm.

Walking by Prudence McCabe, you might not step in because you are not in the mood for sweets, but…read morebelieve me don't let this opportunity pass. Go in there and buy a few bakery goods, you will not be disappointed. Surry County is know for a regional dessert called Sonker. This is the craziest word, it makes me think someone was calling it something else and the Southern tongue made it sonker. But I have no proof of this or even heard anyone saying, just my theory. A sonker can be made differently, but I had three from three restaurants, because once you try it, you are ready to try more because they are most delicious! At Prudence McCabe it is like a thinner cobbler, with equal parts fruit and crust. The most intriguing part, she says they bake the sonkers and then grate cold butter on it with a sprinkle of sugar. Stop you had me at hello. What I really enjoyed was that it wasn't sticky sweet, call ahead and order some so you can choose your flavors, and it can be ready when you arrive. Or buy some to heat up later. There are many other treats, don't overlook the caramel and candid apples, the handmade chocolates, scones and there were bags of oyster crackers when we were there. Super friendly staff too.

I was crossing Moore Avenue and noticed several shops on that side street so I decided to check them out. I was surprised to see this cute little bakery. Everything looked delicious and the prices were extremely reasonable. I purchased a large brownie for my husband and a personal sized cheesecake for myself. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the brownie and the cheesecake was absolutely delicious! The lady at the counter was very pleasant. I'm looking forward to returning and actually considering having her prepare some treats for an upcoming event I'm planning next month. Highly recommend!

I stopped in for the first time and picked up a cinnamon roll and a beef pie. I was hoping to eat…read morethe beef pie in the car but the last said it would take 10 minutes to heat (metal container) so I didn't get to eat that in the car. I also didn't have a utensil... so I picked up subway instead. When I did eat them, I thought the beef pie was decent. It needed a little salt. The cinnamon roll was not as gooey as I'd prefer even after heating, but it was not bad. I'm torn between 3-4 stars but I'll err on the upside.

I was really excited to try this place as a new bakery in Mt. Airy. Upon entering the door it…read moreseemed like every person working just looked at our small group coming in and no one smiled or greeted us. It was almost a look of "why are you here?" I don't know if it was close to closing or what the deal was, honestly. Just unfriendly. We weren't offered to be helped quickly. Instead the workers just kind of stood around and piddled with other things and we had to just speak up and tell what we wanted, eventually. They had an interesting variety, as it is not the typical bakeries we see in this area, so that is a positive thing. The molasses cookie was so good, and I would go back just for that alone. Other than that cookie, I don't think I would make a special trip back. At least until they've been open a while longer.

I'm very pleased with the atmosphere, decor and vibe. Plenty of sitting area around the bakery. They had it all folks from macaroons, cookies, frozen meals like lasagna, candles and teas.

This place truly has everything--from fresh fruit, candies, jellies, apple butter, and local honey to beautiful plants and more. Every corner you turn, there's something new to discover. It's one of those spots where you can lose track of time just browsing, sampling, and soaking it all in. And let me tell you--the people who work there are just as great as the products they sell. Friendly, welcoming, and genuinely helpful, they really make the experience even better. If you're ever anywhere near Cana, Virginia, do yourself a favor and stop by. It's a must-visit kind of place!

Healthy options for lunch but bakery looks awesome if you dare. I suppose this street gets busy and if a place looks busy it probably is so I completely disregarded the 1 star review by the grumpy yelper that felt she waited too long - those kind of reviews aren't really helpful and very Karen like. Food here was super fresh and everything tasted good. This place is still new and just getting going. Based on the nice people working there I expect good things for this place. Definitely a treat over the normal fair here of pork chop sandwiches. I snapped some pics - I was delighted we stopped here. Keep it up Mustard Seed.
