Adorable place, that is simple and puts the baked good first. We got the black garlic and sea salt bagel as well as the sticky bun. One of the best bagels I've ever had perfect texture and wonderful flavor. The sticky bun was massive, great consistency, and not too sweet. We waited in line for only a few minutes to order, and our food came out very quickly. All around awesome spot.

really underwhelmed:( all of the baked goods looked super yummy so we probably should have gone with those but really wanted a bagel sandwich. the egg and cheese bagel was pretty much empty and flavorless, the breakfast sammie with bacon wasn't much better. Staff was very nice and the coffee drinks are good. I would stay away from the breakfast sammie's and maybe opt for a schmear or just baked goods.

I really WANT to like the Bake Shop. I do. But the quality just keeps going downhill. The prices have always been high, but this is a wealthy tourist town, so I get that. There aren't really many other options in the area, so there's no competition. I get that. The menu has changed for the worse, getting more expensive in the process. The last time that my wife ordered a bagel and cream cheese, there was only enough cream cheese to cover half of one side. That's a quarter of the bagel. There literally was not enough to smear and cover half of the bagel. Today, I ordered a "Big Bird Baguette " sandwich. On the 10" baguette, it had: two 2" round slices of cheese, two 2" round slices of sundried tomatoes, about a tablespoon of basil spread, and four slices of low-quality chicken. It's absurd. This is NOT a $12 sandwich! This is on the level of something you might find in a vending machine in a hospital cafe. The service is usually quite prompt and friendly. The location is easily accessible, which is great. But the food quality just keeps going downhill.

One of my favorite spots to grab breakfast in Williamsburg. My only issues is the price but, to be honest, it is worth the cost.The Bake Shop is as the name indicates. It is a bakery. They make their own bagels along with other delicious treats that are proudly displayed as you order. My go-to is always the Asiago bagel with the scallion and dill shmear. They are good about really loading up their bagels with lots of cream cheese. Outside of my normal go-to, their sandwiches are also great. You really can't go wrong with any of them but my personal favorite is The Burg. Word of warning - this place is very popular with the students. If you try and go here on a Saturday or Sunday morning around 10am when college is in session, expect to have a lengthy wait in line.

OMG! So yummy:) if your at William and Mary for an event or visiting Williamsburg .. as long as you don't mind the long lines this place is super yummy to grab your breakfast. The bagels were super fresh and menu selection had something for everyone. No bathroom inside or nearby..... and parking in the back of the shop or street.

Needed a quick solution to feed a bunch of people from CA, TX and NC all with different taste. The Bake Shop was a perfect solution. From the savory ham and cheese scone to the deliciously sweet sticky bun, the Bake Shop had a flavor for all taste. The coffee was also great. It was busy and is small but being patient is worth it.

My wife and I love their pastries and bagels! The coffee here is good as well!The shop is small and does get busy so you can expect lines out the door with minimal inside waiting. Luckily the employees are quick and can be very helpful!

I've been wanting to check The Bake shop out forever. They are always so busy during the W&M school year. So lucky me to catch them after school was out and even score parking up front, The location is just blocks from W&M campus. Parking is 10 minutes in front which can be adequate for pick up, nearby is an hour if eating on the patio, The place is a small walk in. Grab and go beverages and order at the counter. Menus are on the island as you walk in. The bottle drinks were luke warm on a very hot Williamsburg day. It was hard to not be tempted by their pastries, but I showed restraint. The staff was super friendly and helped a first timer decide on a bagel sandwich and drink. Price is fair these days and can tip on the machine. My salmon on everything was delightful. I paired with a bourbon (non alcoholic) ice latte which was super yum! Enjoyed on their patio under and umbrella. Only drawback is everything is grab and go or patio. Will love to come back.
