General Bakeshop — Restaurant in Town of Southeast

Had such high hopes for this place based on the reviews. Small seating area. All the tables were dirty or needed to be bussed. One table outside over top the dumpster that smelled. All this was not seen until after we ordered or probably would have left. Stood by the “order here” sign and no one came to help, had to flag someone down. Had to move dirty dishes that were not busses and wiped down my own table with a napkin and hand sanitizer. Was still hopeful for the food, but was disappointed. Ordered an Italian combo and chicken sandwiches. The Italian combo was so salty. Included picked vegetables and olives, as well as olive loaf as a deli meat. The lettuce in this cold sandwich was so wilted, it was rancid. I could not eat it. The fried chicken sandwich was drenched with a strange sauce that was no good and the chicken tasted oddly of fried fish. For four of us to get food and drinks, and bus our own table, it was over $100. Absolutely...

Months after my original review was written (see below) we are now regulars. The breakfast sandwich (egg, cheese, bacon on toasted soft, fluffy buttery roll) is a special treat. The baked goods vary, but always look fantastic.

Initial review: Baked to perfection!

Our first, but far from last visit to this new bakery in our town. So we purchased a variety from what they had to offer:

pain au chocolat, almond croissant, blueberry muffin, Boston cream donut, cheddar dill scone, huckleberry scone

and for lunch :orzo salad and quinoa salad.

The baked goods were absolutely perfect. Crispy golden flakey croissants. The sweets not cloying. Blueberries galore. Rich dark chocolate coating the Boston cream donut. On and on.

Same with the take home salads. Just right. Yum!

Next visit we're going for the breads. And I'm a home baker. Not even jealous. This is so far beyond my...

The menu may be small, but the flavor is big!! Breakfast is served all day, and lunch is served from 12 to 3pm. I had the breakfast sandwich, which comes with 2 cage free scrambled eggs, bakers bacon(not exactly sure what that is, but it was good,lol) and cheese on a brewster bun. The inside of the bread was perfectly toasted and buttered, and you could taste the crisp edges with each bite of the edge of the brewster bun. I ordered a side of the home fries, and I was not disappointed!!! I'm assuming rosemary and thyme. The home fries had some crisp to them but were also soft. The cook personally brought the food out along with a pitcher of water. To go, I left with a cinnamon spice doughnut and a jelly doughnut with a house made jelly. While sitting there, I saw someone order a slice of the carrot cake, I asked how it was, and they swore by it. I decided to take a slice of...
