This bakery has been a favorite of mine for years. I often show up when they open at 7am and drink the bottomless cup of coffee along with a yummy current scone. The staff is always friendly and there are always plenty of things to read (statesman, chronicle) while loitering. The lunch sandwiches are also very good and very nutritious. My fav is the turkey and provolone on whole wheat bread with red onions and sprouts. The bread is excellent (shock!) and the hibiscus iced tea is a winner. Always check the day old shelf for some of yesterdays best baked goods at half off!!!
Pros: Its all good. If its baked at the Upper Crust its the best in Austin.
Cons: I've read some complaints about the parking but I think its FUN to try to find a spot.
