Sandwiches are really good and desserts. Love the inside but could use more seating and more comfortable seating. The service was wonderful. Very kind and helpful. For sure going back just might eat at a park or home. read more

I hate to write this review but someone has to because the owner needs to do some quality control. We loved this place, when it opened it was 5 star. Over the years it has gone down hill. The last few times, anything we tried seemed old. Dry Thanksgiving bread rolls, baked goods (cookies, scones, cinnamon rolls) that were not fresh. Today we tried sandwiches at lunch, noon on a Thurs. My ciabatta roll on the hot honey sandwich was the driest bread I've ever received at a restaurant & I'm not exaggerating. It was so hard it didn't move when squeezed. We called to let them know & the person that answered didn't apologize and only said "thanks". I don't know how a person could make a sandwich on that bread & think it was okay to sell to a customer. We live in town & likely will not be back. I hope the owner reads this review: please save your bakery. read more

Wonderful staff members and the best pastrami sandwich!!! Cinnamon rolls were delicious too.

The breakfast burrito is DDDDDDeeeellliiicious! Thanks for fueling my morning. I also picked up some sweet goods that I'm excited to try later. It's a cute spot that I will definitely be back to visit. read more

Great food! Love the scones! Really friendly service. Nice place, very clean. Only down sides: the bench for seating is too low for the tables--or maybe it's the tables that are a bit too high. Also, can get really smoky if someone orders a hot sandwich --there's no ventilation in the kitchen area. But we love this place for the food read more

I go to the rustic oven in the morning, typically once or twice a week for triple berry scones and if you're really lucky, they will heat them up for you the best place in my opinion to get something to sit down and eat read more

Ambiance is sweet, food is terrific, delicious !! Had lunch sandwiches here before . Today had breakfast sandwich on sourdough made here. Absolutely perfect!! Service was pleasant! read more

This is such an adorable place to visit. I trying the turkey sandwich hot on sourdough and liked it very much. My son had the peanut butter and jelly. We took home a cinnamon roll and it was the best cinnamon roll I've ever had. The girls that work here are very sweet. read more

I can't love this place enough - rustic interior full of small town charm, goodies to eat and goodies to buy for home. All of the breads are made in shop. The meats and sauces are pure quality. I especially love the hot turkey pesto sandwich - every time I get this delectable sandwich, the meat is perfectly heated, tender and lightly touched with pesto as to not be overwhelming. The ciabatta roll is fresh and a perfect complement to all the sandwich has to offer. Served with potato chips and a pickle slice, it's a filling and satisfying lunch. The prices side a little higher than a chain sandwich shop, but you're most definitely getting what you pay for here - locally made with pride. Always get amazingly friendly service that makes me want to come back more often than I can. It would be nice to get chip options and maybe a soda fountain instead of cans, but not enough of an issue for me not to go. Be on the lookout for their preorder options during the holidays-the rolls are a must order! Everyone gobbled down 2 or more at Christmas...even the "no, I don't eat bread" people! Do not miss! read more

We just tried this place today for the first time ...overall it was such a cute place! Customer service was friendly..... Smells like baked bread delicious and all baked goods looked amazing! I had the bacon breakfast burrito was awesome! And a piece of lemon poppy seed loaf to go! And my husband had the roast beef it was good but unfortunately he was specific with NO horseradish or NO mayo one of his biggest is mayo(doesn't like it on anything ) and both were on his sandwich.... we will be willing to give it a try again we are in the area once a month so hopefully the next go around it's better! However, if you are in the Middleton area check this place out! read more

I wanted one of everything. Hahaha. This place was SO tasty! We were in town and I had to stop! A hard working family owned local bakery where everything I had tasted amazing.

I love The Rustic Oven. It's tucked away in a strip mall in Middleton. I ordered the Monte Cristo "Hot ham and Swiss on egg dipped bread. Sprinkled with powdered sugar. Side of strawberry jam" and a mixed berry cinnamon roll to go. It's been a minute since I visited but this place is ALWAYS reliable! The food is reasonably priced. The staff is efficient and engaging. I left wondering why I don't visit more often. I'll definitely be back! read more

My wife and I just moved from Southern Cali to Star. Today, we went out to explore Middleton. A short 10-12 minute drive for us without traffic, The Rustic Oven is located in the same shopping center as the laundromat we utililzed before our washer and dryer arrived, as well as the Idaho Ranch Thrift Store (another review). There were several young women working when we arrived. I'm sorry to say that I did not catch the name of the woman that seemed to be the manager/head baker. All of the staff were nice and friendly. Somehow the conversation shifted to lavender scones, one of my wife's favorites. The manager said that they could custom bake some for her. As the only other lavender scones we've found in Treasure Valley were at a specific Albertsons in Meridian or Eagle (we can't remember), my wife was thrilled. She ordered a dozen. The manager didn't even ask for any money up front. We also ordered some rolls (my wife's was cinnamon pecan and mine was berry) and they were delicious. In addition, they have a variety of other pastries and sandwiches available on their fresh made bread that looked wonderful (I had my eye on the Reuben for a future visit). I think that The Rustic Oven will be a go-to spot for us. read more

Everything was so good! We had a breakfast sandwich, a BLT, cinnamon rolls, orange roll, frosted cookie, brownie and a slice of poppy seed bread. All were delicious! read more

Sandwiches here are amazing! A must for people to check out for sure! End with a dessert to enjoy on the way home. Staff is very friendly and establishment was clean/organized. read more

We just finished our Thanksgiving meal with family. I had to jump on and share the opinions of everyone that tried to "blackberry pie" we purchased from the Rustic Oven. My daughter suggested I go back to a frozen Marie Calendar's pie or a frozen Willamette Fruit growers frozen pie from Albertsons. There were no berries in the pie and the crust was stale and worthy of the garbage can. The berry filling was mainly gelatinous with an occasional berry seed. Their over priced pie was an embarrassment on our table. Never again folks. I'll bake my own and skip the Mrs. Smiths cracks from the kids. Totally disappointed with the Rustic Oven. read more

We rented a house in Middleton few a few months while waiting for our house to be built in Star. This provided us with an opportunity to try out the local businesses nearby, many of them unique, non-chain attached places. One place that we continue to return on a regular basis is "The Rustic Oven". Rustic Oven is located in a small shopping center in Middleton (shared with the Idaho Youth Ranch store among others) just off the main drag through town. There is a small but very cozy seating area that could probably accommodate 10 diners. The staff is very welcoming as you enter and you are faced with much of their baked offerings behind glass counters. They have a small area dedicated to small, locally sourced/created items for sale - honey, jams, jellies, artful jewelry, etc. A really nice touch that adds to the local feel of the entire business. We continue to patronize The Rustic Oven for their rustic loaves of bread. Specifically we love their artisan sourdough loaves. Have tried the jalepeño cheese version, the plain loaf, and the sourdough loaf. Each is fresh and makes for wonderful sandwiches at home - additionally the resulting toast made with their bread is exquisite. There are also mutliple other baked items - both on the savory & sweet front - scones, cinnamon rolls, etc. We have enjoyed their sandwiches as well many times. Never disappointed enjoying lunch here. The sandwich selection is creative and well-thought out. Something to meet any preferred taste. Recently I ordered a breakfast burrito. I am really picky about my breakfast burritos - have to say I would gladly order this one again. Went with the sausage version - bacon is also offered. Proportionally the ingredients (eggs, hash browns, sausage, cheese) were nicely balanced. What really stood out was the cook on the hash browns - could not have been done better - not crunchy but rather cooked through and nicely melded with all the other ingredients. A winner. There are multiple lunch offerings here. The selection of sandwiches is very creative and tasty (tried several). Their reuben is really good. Beyond their menu board listed sandwiches, they also promote an employee-invented sandwich special on a rotating basis - fun! They also plan to do the same with their in-house baked cookie selections I hear. I have to spologize for the lack of representative pictures here. As we do return here often, I endeavor to catch a few goods shots soon! The staff is incredibly nice here and will make you feel welcome. Highly recommend The Rustic Oven. read more

Great place to go eat. First time in, the staff was very friendly and patient with us. Food came out quick and brought to our table. Tough to get this service these days. We were there for lunch and decided on breakfast. Food was amazing. Resturant was really clean. Highly recommend. Frank Pereira read more

Very good sandwiches. We got a hot Beef and Cheddar and the Turkey Pesto. Both were excellent....and I'm not a fan of deli sandwiches usually. They even threw in a free cookie, which was amazing also! read more

3rd visit never disappointed. I live in SD Ca and never miss a chance to get a bite at this hidden gem.

We've gotten soup, sandwiches and salads for events at our home twice now, and it's just always so good. The staff is always friendly and helpful, the food is delicious, and we get nothing but compliments. It's our go-to for sure! read more

Loved the Breakfast sandwich! The service was great. Everyone was so friendly. We had a muffin that was mouthwatering. Lovely little place. We bought some local honey that was delicious too. Definitely stop in here, even if you're not hungry, and pick up some bread or muffins to go! read more

Middleton's own local bakery- you can smell the deliciousness from the parking lot! The orange roll ($4) was sweet and tangy and freshly made. Very good! Grilled cheese ($4) was on sour dough and comes with a choice of provolone, pepper jack, cheddar, and American. You can choose two. Crispy and delicious, good small sandwich for a kids lunch or to go with something else. The Monte Cristo sandwich ($9) comes with egg dipped bread, ham, Swiss, powdered sugar and jelly for dipping. Not as crispy as I had hoped, the egg dipped bread was a bit floppy- but it was tasty nonetheless! We will definitely be back to try more- I'm interested in how the berry roll would taste. They rotate through different rolls, breads, and scones seasonally- so depending on when you stop by they may have a different selection. They also have a food truck with pizza that I have yet to try- check out their social media for locations and events. Definitely stop by The Rustic Oven if you're in the area and you have a hankering for fresh baked deliciousness. read more

Stopped in for lunch at The Rustic Oven. What a wonderful shoppe. It has a very warm homey feel to it. They have all sorts of baked goods for sale. You should not go home empty handed! I ordered the grilled cheese and tomato soup. They give you the option of choosing two cheeses for this sandwich. I chose cheddar and Swiss which is always a good combination. Other options were Parmesan and pepper jack. It is served on their signature sourdough bread, which is awesome. It was just what I wanted. The tomato soup had a wonderful flavor and of course was complimented by dipping my sandwich into it. They do not have a lot of menu options as they change the menu frequently. Which I think is nice. There were four sandwiches and two soup options to chose from. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. I look forward to another lunch drop in! read more

Great home town bakery/cafe. Fresh and clean, the air always smells like fresh bread of cinnamon rolls. I have never had anything I didn't like there. In fact, I love the tomato soup there and only there. The owners, are great and always attentive to their customers, as well as the staff. Great home town bakery. read more

SO GOOD! They offer a limited sandwich/salad menu in addition to their breads and sweets, but WOW! Absolutely delicious! We ordered a Honey Chicken and a hot Turkey Pesto and both were amazing! The Honey chicken is a cold sandwich and when you first bite in you get that strong sweet flavor and a bit of crunch followed by a little kick. It had so much flavor and was the perfect size. The Pesto Turkey was also extremely good and hit the spot - the only downside was it was a little on the smaller side. Then, as we were sitting there eating our lunch, we looked over to see all the sweets. There was no way we could leave without a couple sticky rolls and a couple cinnamon rolls. Also amazing, of course. I will definitely be back! read more

The food is amazing but you should be aware of how your tips are spent. The owner keeps the tips and tells the employees on how she will spend them. Forcing the employees to pool all tips received for her to decide who will get a bonus and where to spend their hard earned gratitude. Different employees, on different occasions, have stated they have not received any tips and rarely receive a "bonus." read more

We've been here before for the delicious scones and sourdough bread, but this week we came in with family visiting from out of state and tried the cinnamon rolls and sandwiches. To die for! The orange cinnamon roll had just the perfect amount of orange zest. The sandwich rolls were so fresh and tasty, and the roast beef looked and tasted like it had just been cut. Such a wonderful little family-owned bakery/cafe! read more

The best cobb salad I've ever had. Walked in with a smile on my face. The ambience is very much small town, which certainly encompasses all that Middleton is. It felt like I was walking into my aunt's kitchen to make homemade bread with her. Cashier was cute as a button, smile on her face, happy to be there. She complimented my outfit. Whole atmosphere and presence was great. Will be returning! read more
