Awesome place! The bread is great, and the sandwiches are huge. Cookies are good too! Also a really nice staff. I had zero complaints and a great experience. The actual bakery smells really good too!
These guys & gals know how to make a sandwich! Nothing is worse than ordering lettuce on your sandwich and getting one flimsy leaf. Here you get lettuce you can sink your teeth into. Nothing is worse than ordering crispy bacon on your sandwich, and getting flimsy, greasy junk. (These things happen for me more often than not at other sandwich places.) Here- crispy bacon that crunches - yes! And their bread and cookies are excellent. Best is their consistency: weve been here many times, and its always this good. You otter try it!
Service was fast and my sandwich delicious. Their coffee was mediocre though. I got a cappuccino and the milk tasted burned. If you stick to pastries and sandwiches though, youll be fine. Everything is fresh and done to order. Extra props for cleanliness and the covid restrictions in place. They somehow managed to make the bakery feel both safe and normal!
I would love this place but the fact that you aren’t open Sunday AND Monday is a total shame. Sunday seems like a quintessential bakery day to me. Monday I’m just selfishly upset about because it’s my day off. Hope you’ll reconsider your hours!
I’m not one to write reviews but as a vegetarian I rarely find good sandwiches and the Vermonter sandwich from this bakery is ABSOLUTELY something to write home about. Goat cheese with fresh veggies on delicious bread. The cookies, coffee, and hot chocolate were also fantastic as were the staff. 10/10 highly recommend. Can’t wait to go back someday soon!
The food was very good but the cashier was embarassing the customer before us over her credit card issue.
We had two breakfasts at this wonderful place while we were visiting Middlebury. The first day we ordered an otter paw and an almond orange croissant. Both were absolutely delicious and very fresh! The second day we got a couple of breakfast paninis on rye bread. They were also delicious but huge! We split the first one and brought the other home to heat up for breakfast the next day! Highly recommend!!
Great sandwiches and baked goods. The bread is awesome.
Delicious turkey sandwich, the cranberry was not too sweet and a good compliment. The chocolate eclair was top notch, the cream filling fresh and light. You must try!
I have never been disappointed here. Their sandwiches are loaded with fresh, local ingredients. Their pastries and desserts are made with combined decades of experience, and it really shows. Their employees are always polite and professional, but still warm and friendly. Its really hard to overstate how great this place is.
Great bakery with tasty treats! My favorites are Chiyos chocolate chip cookies and the cinnamon twists.
One of my favorite bakeries/cafés!
Wow !! I just ordered a breakfast Panini it was delicious and the service was phenomenal!! I will definitely visit again soon.
Great coffee, delicious pastries, and awesome service. What a nice stop!
Always love going to Otter Creek Bakery. I have never had a bad sandwich there.
Delicious! We bought the apple Strudel and breakfast sandwiches.
Always great baked goods and coffee served with kindness.
Hello Delicious! Every single detail has been mapped out from decorative paper straws, flawless cookies, deliciously fresh savory bites and a cozy outdoor space. Upon entering, I was welcomed and before leaving I was acknowledged.
Lovely place with good coffee and very friendly staff. Sandwiches are skimpy on the meat not trimmed well and pricey for the quality. Pastries are almost always great. But watch the cookies not always up to par. Fruit tart is exceptional.
The Bakery is Middlebury Central and should not be missed. Lovely atmosphere, squeeky clean, committed staff and lots of fresh foods and beverages. Bread, pastries, soups, salads, sandwiches etc., hand made and baked on site. On certain days each week there is also wood baked sourdough bread and pork or chicken smoked on site. And in summertime theres lots of shaded outdoor seating amongst the flowers.
Love their sour dough and honey wheat breads. We get bread and pastries frequently ! Their dinner rolls are excellent too! They’re a Thanksgiving & Christmas must at our house!
Friendly staff. A lot of variety. I ordered the Greek pita and an iced cafe latte, they were both delicious. I brought the moose gingerbread cookies home to my kids and they were so excited and proceeded to eat them right up!
Delicious baked goods. The maple cheese danish was incredible.
Such a great place, some of the best food Ive ever had and some of the best beers around!
Ordered the West Coaster sandwich on rye bread. The sandwich was quickly made on very generous slices of bread. The downfall is that there was only 1 slice of turkey on the sandwich. Would not go there again.
I’m in love with their orange almond croissant. They sell out of these regularly so order early in the day.
Great food! A variety of baked goods and bread, cakes. Sandwiches and salads are also available. Parking is near the bakery.
This place is OMG good! Bakery/Deli offering healthy lunch options as well as stuff thats so good, youll feel like you have to have a healthy lunch as penance.
This was a really nice place to stop. A wonderful feel of Vermont and local tastes and styles. The staff were absolutely fantastic: very understanding and prompt. A wonderful lunch place.
Best coffee in town and friendly people. Lots of delicious treats! Custom birthday cakes too. Nice shaded outdoor seating.
Super cute tall boy to serve you on most days! Get there early on Sunday if you want your chocolate croissants! And if you really need something rich go for the chocolate XTC!
Makes no sense not being open until 7:30AM? Must lose that morning Rush!!!
Wonderful pastries to be had. The coffee is average, but the reason to go is the deli and baked goods. Absolutely wonderful on a peaceful afternoon.
I love the bakery!! You guys are all so friendly and have delicious food. Kayla is the nicest always so polite and welcoming!!!
Tasty spot with tons of variety. Tried the breakfast pizza which was a fantastic idea!
Went yesterday with a group of somewhat persnickety seniors, parked in back and went up good graded ramp--accommodated us (11 total) outside, but as weather was just warm enough..Lucky for us! Will return but with younger/smaller crowd. Yummy soups, great portions and home grown. DESSERTS are to die for! And they took a purchase order, which is the only way we can do business, due to our non-profit status...which was great! Staff was very accommodating, given that we just BOMBARDED them at the height of LUNCH! Cool place. Great owners.
Bad service. Slow, rude. 25 minutes for a panini and we were the only ones there. Very pretty food, too bad it doesn’t taste as good as it looks. We were there at 7am, so you’d expect the smell of things baking, Nope. I get a feeling nothing here is very fresh. All the pastries are very dry and taste like they’ve been frozen or sat for a while.Given them a couple tries and just not impressed. Their coffee drinks are downright horrible, worst cappuccino I’ve ever had undrinkable! They don’t make their food fresh either, they rewarm the eggs for their paninis. Even McDonalds makes fresh eggs. Their bread is decent.
Quick and friendly service and delicious baked goods! We had pastries and coffee, including hot cross buns for Easter. Yum!
Friendly staff, yummy treats and several good Vegitarian options. Good place to meet friends and enjoy some slow down time.
Great coffee and confections. Now that it is warm out, their limited seating is expanded outdoors.
Sweet little bakery with good soft pretzels. The staff are friendly. Small but nice outdoor seating.
Great food, great staff, local watering hole where town and college lives cross in the best of ways. I highly recommend a stop if youre in town!
Very good and not too expensive!
The blueberry topped cheesecake was tough and rubbery and if it hadnt been labeled as cheesecake you would have never guessed. The fruit tart was not objectionable, just tasteless. Otter Creek Bakery used to have a wonderful reputation for delicious treats. This was just a waste of money as we tossed those treats into the garbage after two bites.
Good sandwiches, cookies, and lots of tasty looking pastries to choose from, great shady spot with tables out front.
Great food, croissants and desserts. And the owner was very accommodating in helping me set up an account for my son, a student at Middlebury College.And homemade doggie treats!!
Great bread, but Ive never had anything from OCB that wasnt amazing.
What a glorious selection of baked goods! And well brewed coffee too!
Absolutely wonderful food, coffee and great service!!
Amazing food with fresh ingredients and a vert friendly atmosphere!
Wow... I went here for a sandwhich on the way to the airport and ended up buying a ton of baked goods for my wife and I. They serve delicious coffee as well. I had the East Coaster sandwhich, with crab meat and cole slaw which was great if you like seafood. Lots of other options as well. I highly recommend!
The best sandwiches in town! Everything is so fresh and the bread is so tasty!
Small bakery, tasty treats, good service
Great pastries and friendly staff, unfortunately I witnessed a worker touching the sandwhich I ordered with ungloved hands. I threw the sandwich away. Watched how the workers handle sandwhiches the next time I was in and again witnessed ungloved hand to sandwich contact.
Had a west coaster-1 slice of turkey, a little cheese, some lettuce, a smear of avocado and a piece of sundries tomato. This on a lot of bread for $9.00. Won’t do that again
Great sandwiches and assortment of sweet treats.
Great coffee, smiling cheerful staff, beautiful sidewalk-cafe seating, perfect location, all around one of the best spots in Middlebury. Try their Olive Twist.
Great yummies. Wish the interior was larger.
Mountain Ale old fashioned is the best
Softshell crab sandwich in Vermont, yeah and it was great.
As always, friendly, delicious and welcoming.
I love the maple products the cookies
Make a good hot chocolate
Had a sticky bun that was so so and a little dry. Perhaps because it was later in the day?
Barely any chicken in my sandwich. You should ashamed for charging 8 dollars.
Very nice for a treat!
Very nice bakery!
Nice selection of deserts, sandwiches, and breads
The food is good, I just find it expensive.
Amazing pastries.
Delicious, albeit a bit expensive.
Everything is good
Must try the Ruben!
