Hidden gem. Great sandwiches. Extensive variety. Why does Yelp make pad my review to get it posted? read more

Where should I start. First, the employees are friendly and very helpful. The selection of food is great. Did you know everything is made on site. It is a quaint shop with not only good food, but a sweet area where you can purchase interesting items that will bring a smile to your face. It is a family-owned business which has been there for many years. What more could you ask for: great food, great employees and a quaint little shop. Sounds like a winning combination to me! read more

The word "bakery" is very misleading. A small display case which by 2:00 p.m. is nearly empty is what we discovered. There were a few basic cookies, tarts but nothing anyone would get excited about. Village Sandwich Shop is what they really are. There seems to be a real lack of bakeries on Groton-Mystic shoreline which is a major disappointment same goes for good Italian food. Syft is decent but also lacks when you think of variety and baked goods. Having moved from central CT, we never realized how spoiled we were having access to very good, generational, family owned bakeries! Id pass on Village Bake House however as far as "baked goods". read more

Ordered from Village Bake House through Uber eats while staying in Mystic a few days ago. An amazing experience from start to finish! I ordered soup and a salad through the app with no explanation of what soups were available but immediately after placing the order I received a phone call from a friendly employee explaining which soups were available. He named three different soups but I only heard one which was jambalaya. He mentioned that it was spicy but as I said "I'm from Texas" he said "oh you'll be fine then!" He was right! It was awesome and just the right amount of spicy! I ordered the chef salad as well. Everything was presented beautifully and didn't look like a to-go order at all! Amazing! I'll definitely order again and will check out the restaurant as well. Highly recommend read more

Great quick dive for lunch! Very fresh chicken and veggies. You can tell it's homemade. One thing I wish was that there was more potato salad! That was so good. The service was quick and accurate and you can tell the owners care about you! There are a lot of regulars that came in and you could tell the owners loved them. I would plan ahead if you have a large group as there isn't a lot of seating but there's enough for a couple on a quick lunch! read more

What we ordered was good, but there wasn't much of a choice on the menu. I thought there was a lot more based on the reviews that I read. Would like to try it one more time and see if they have better choices next time. read more

Village bake house is one of my favorite lunch spots whenever I'm at work. They are quick, friendly, and have a ton of options for sandwiches, soup and salads. My favorite items here are the thanksgiving on a bun sandwich and the chicken quesadilla. I usually add avocado to the quesadilla (for an up charge) but it's so worth it because let's be honest avocado rules. I also really enjoy their soups which rotate daily oh and did I mention they make their own delicious cookies and other pastries? Make sure to grab something sweet before you check out. Village bakehouse is just an old school type sandwich shop that always satisfies. read more

Village Bake House - Thanksgiving on a bun - Bakeries Near Me - Groton, Connecticut

Looking for a quick bite to eat and a good local spot based on word of mouth, I discovered this little gem. I definitely wouldn't have found it by just driving by, plus there was road work being leading to it's parking lot. The building it was located in almost looks like an office type building. In addition to their baked desserts, they have a wide variety of wrap and salad offerings. One of the locals that was in there at the time recommended the pesto chicken wrap, so that's what I went with. The wrap was warm on the inside and the wrap was toasted giving it a little more rigidity and a slight crunch when eating it. It came wrapped in foil to keep it warm, then additional with paper and a pickle slice. A variety of bottled drinks could be purchased. Tables and seating were small and quaint, but the place isn't big enough to really support bigger ones. I was too full to try any of the desserts, but the cookies are sold by the pound and the rest of the display case looked really appealing. Overall a good experience, with friendly customer service. I can see why it's a favorite spot of the locals. read more

We were staying down the road and were looking for a sandwich place and happened upon the Village Bake House. What a gem!!! Unbelievably delicious chicken salad, amazing Hermit cookies and wonderful, friendly service. So happy we stopped in. Do yourself a favor and check it out. Get the chicken salad and a big bag of Hermits! read more

Oh my gosh this place is heavenly. As much as I don't look forward to going back to Groton, every time I have to go back I get excited that I can go back to the Village Bake House. When we lived in Groton, I would have eaten here every day of the week if my wife would have let me. This is a very small, nondescript place on the side of the road next door to a jewelry store. If you blink, you'll miss it. If you aren't looking for it, you'll never notice it. Please listen to me carefully: LOOK FOR IT. SEEK IT OUT. GO TO THE VILLAGE BAKE HOUSE NOW! If you're just driving across country and have no intention of even getting off the highway between NY and Boston, DON'T. GET OFF THE HIGHWAY in Groton and have lunch at the Village Bake House along the way. You WON'T be disappointed! Besides being an AWESOME bakery with absolutely sinful things to tempt your tastebuds (of the pastry and cookie variety), they also have a supremely delicious selection of sandwiches, wraps, and soups. I would routinely go there to have a wrap for lunch. Just the thought of the maple turkey or the thai chicken wrap is making my mouth water. (You can check out their menu on their website). If you look at my rating spreads, you'll see that I reserve the 5-star rating for those places that are very truly spectacular. While Village Bakehouse is a small hole in the wall, the service is friendly, the prices are good, and the food is to die for. Don't miss it! read more

I'm a sucker for pesto. I just can't get enough of it. The pesto chicken wrap was wonderful! Inside seating can be a bit hard during peak times, or for groups. Great for take out or eating outside. The staff is always kind and helpful, the food is always great! Try the baked goods! You won't be disappointed. read more

As I ran my errands and finished up at the post office I stopped by to pick up a lunch and two cookies. I ordered the Turkey BLT wrap, a tollhouse cookie, and oatmeal raisin. I loved the wrap and their oatmeal cookie but their tollhouse cookie wasn't that great. I bake myself and maybe it's because I have a certain way I like my chocolate chip cookies but theirs wasn't bad. I definitely would come back :) read more

I am always on the hunt for exceptional pastry. I go by there at least three times a week and decided today to drop in. I got a chocolate log and it was so fabulous! It was rich , and chocolatey, and the pastry was flaky. Outstanding! read more

I came across this place on Yelp today. It's such a cute place full of Christmas decorations . They have a case of pastries and they also make cookie platters and pies. I got the pecan chicken wrap it was okay but too many pecans. I will def come back and try another . On Mondays sandwiches are only 5.99 for military . read more

What a fine great food great service it's so nice to see little places like this still exist today not corporate

Stopped in for lunch today, which was my first time ordering an actual sandwich from here. I've had their cakes (thumbs up) as well as their cookies (double thumbs up), but never ordered off their actual menu before. First of all, i just have to say...I like this place. I like that it's small, and i like that the staff engage you in conversation even though you're a complete stranger. I like that the other customers make silly faces at my son when we stop in just to get him to smile back. It just feels like a small, friendly place--and I like that! But onto the food. I ordered a Louisiana Chicken Wrap today, and snagged 2 cookies as well. The wrap was delicious, and was still nice and warm by the time I got it home. The portions are just right--which is something I admire. I can't stand ordering someplace and being left feeling hungry or worse yet, being left with an overabundance of food (that usually doesn't taste great the next day.) But my wrap was a nice, normal sized wrap and had a great little kick to it, thanks to the Creole sauce. The cookies were the perfect ending. A nice touch of sweet to finish up with. Very good. I'll definitely be bake to the Village Bake House. When I need a birthday cake or just some sweet, or a quick delicious lunch, I'll swing by. And think you should too. :) read more

I wanted a muffin and this was one of the places that were within the area to have fresh ones. The Cranberry Orange muffin I had gotten here was one of the best muffins I've ever had, not to mention that the prices were very cheap, and the staff were very nice. read more

I like the Village Bake House. I like sandwiches and cookies and pickles, and the Village Bake House provides me all of these things! And they manage to get it to me well within the limits of my lunch break! It's kind of like magic, only it's actually excellent service. I guess I have one compliant though. You get a side with your sandwich or wrap, but it's never the same. My favorite is the potato salad - it's freakin' delicious, but I've only ever gotten it twice. It's like I'm 6 and I keep putting my quarters in the toy vending machine trying to get the the lollipop ring, but I end up with two flower tattoos and one of those sticky hands that get hair and dust on 'em the minute they're out of the plastic. Not the point. Point is, the pasta salad and cole slaw are okay, but the potato salad is waaaayyy better. And their sandwiches are just really satisfying. Get the veggie melt or the pesto chicken wrap. Oww or the maple turkey wrap. They also do half sandwiches and soup - either way, you'll be satiated and happy and back before the boss notices you're gone! read more

Love this place. I've never eaten, always ordered to go. The Groton location is small inside, I've never been to the Niantic location. The wraps and sandwiches are always delicious, fresh and creative. the soups change daily and awesome as well. I love the Cajun chicken wrap with Creole sauce and Jerk Chicken Soup is the best! Enjoy! read more

Great discovery for lunch while on travel! I've had both the Louisiana chicken wrap and the flaming chicken wrap! Both have just enough kick. The sandwich and wraps come with a side that you can't pick. Both times got coleslaw. Chips and drink extra. Great potato salad. Was told that potato salad was made on Thursday for Friday and Saturday. They toast the wrap so it's not just a stuffed rolled tortilla. Closes at 4pm not 6pm during winter months A little disappointed in the baked items...cinnamon stick and apple turnover. Not worth the calories. Had a few other cookies and those were good. read more

I went to your business purchased the soup for my brother-n -law whom was on a low salt diet,and also was handicapped and unable to leave the house.I went out of my way to purchase that soup& quite frankly i wish i never stepped foot in that place!The soup was not consumable it was disgustingly salty!! I was very nice when i went in and explained that to the woman at the counter and she was getting my refund.You suddenly ran from the kitchen tore your apron off yelling at me that no refund or replacement will happen!! I will say this publicly it is written on several posts that you are accusing me and your wife who was not there that day so she should not be making false accusations of stealing, be very careful when you are actively accusing someone of stealing.I believed you robbed me !!I paid for a soup that i never got!!IT WAS ME that decided to call the cops because i like anyone in their right mind are not going to be accused of theft and i said call the cops because i wanted my money returned and wanted to file a complaint that you were accusing me of theft!! Would you like to be accused of something that is false??? I was to stand there and be belittled,it will never happen!! Obviously Sir you need to take constructive criticism and I'm sorry the integrity of this business is gone. It goes a long way to listen to what a customer wants.I was a paying customer,i don't need to cheat someone for a FREE SOUP!! Just try to be a little nicer and peaceful..I read some other reviews and unfortunately alot of other customers had the same experience as me.An apology would have been in order!!! read more

We ordered through GrubHub and the delivery was fast and the food was great. They were able to easily customize my order and even followed up to ensure what I requested was accurate. The food was fresh and perfect for a meal at lunch time. read more

This is the quietest secret in Groton The staff is friendly and inviting and the food was so good. I ordered the soup and sandwich turkey with Alvarado. Was amazing. I highly recommend them. All the food is cooked fresh and the desserts are endless. Breakfast or lunch a winner! read more

The best buffalo chicken wrap I've ever had. Everything is made to order right there, so you can customize any salad, sandwich, or wrap. The staff is always super friendly and patient. If you don't like their menu items, you can build a sandwich from scratch. Every sandwich comes with a pickle (YUM) and a side of pasta salad, potato salad, or coleslaw. All are yummy. If you don't have time to wait, call your order in ahead of time before you leave. Save room for cookies. Their chocolate chip, oatmeal, cranberry cookie is my favorite. I try making them at home, but theirs are superior. read more

Updating to say that we have ordered from here three more times since the first time, and each time has still been amazing! I had the reuben, like I said I would, but then the next time I tried the pecan chicken wrap. Oh. My. Goodness. Gracious! It is so delicious! Sweet and spicy, and amazing. I ordered it for a second time today, and I know I'm going to have a hard time trying anything else, because it is so good! I'm not usually the type of person who likes to get the same thing every time, but who knows now...?! My husband did decide to share a bite of his caesar salad wrap (which he has gotten every single time, because he IS that type of person haha) and it was great as well. It is good to know that I have so many options that will not disappoint! Also, the woman who was working this afternoon was very nice. read more

I recently drove by this place and decided to give it a try today with family. It's very small inside but super quaint. The staff is very friendly. I got the smoked turkey blt wrap and the others split a pecan chicken wrap, I believe. This place was great. Food was delicious, I will definitely be back. Next time I will be getting the goat cheese sandwich! It's like a hidden gem. read more

I've been going to this spot since 2010! NOBODY can make a better chicken salad sandwich than this place! This is the only thing that I've purchased from this place since 2010- chicken salad on 8 grain bread with a side of Deep River Original Chips!! The lady is so sweet and the guy in the back has always been nice! Don't ever change that chicken salad recipe! I wish there was a better word to describe this sandwich! The cookies are amazing (chocolate chip and fudge fancy). I also enjoy their potato salad :) go check them out if you haven't, yet! read more

My co-workers and I ordered from Village Bake House for lunch today and we were all raving about our food. I've been here several times and only ever get the Thanksgiving-on-a-bun sandwich because I just love it so much. My co-workers got a grape chicken salad sandwich and a chicken ranch wrap and they kept saying how good it all was. The potato salad here is one of my favorites in the area! The shop is super cute and cozy and very clean. The staff is very friendly and personable. 4 stars only because my beloved Thanksgiving-on-a-bun sandwich was made with turkey deli meat today which differs from the usual "real" turkey I was used to over the winter. It was still very delicious, I just wasn't expecting it. read more

This was a charming little place. It was very quick and the food was delicious. I had the pecan chicken wrap and it was loaded with chicken. Not like the "mostly lettuce" wraps you get other places. It was quiet and pleasant. read more

I called 30 min before closing and they were super nice about me coming in. I got a bacon and 3 cheese sandwich that was perfection, especially since it was on homemade bread! My friend also enjoyed her blt. My only regret is not buying any cookies, but maybe next time! read more

Had the Thanksgiving On A Bun. Amazing sandwich and the chocolate chip cookie with it was great! Highly recommend!

Ok, so I thought I would try this place , I ordered a carry out Cobb salad with chicken. I hate to review this way, but I didn't get a Cobb salad with chicken . Although the salad I got was good, but it was the wrong kind of salad. Hopefully they can fix this in the future and get my simple order right. read more

I've visited about 5 times now before reviewing and each time is always great. The potato salad they give you as a side is delicious. I never knew in the 5 years we lived here they sold sandwiches etc and can safely say I'll never go to Subway again, given the option. read more

Solid sandwiches and baked threats. Highly recommend if you are looking to grab lunch in the area.
