Small Oven Bakery

We had Small Oven Bakery take care of our wedding cake and couldn't be happier. Daisy did an amazing job meeting with us and figuring out what we liked. She was able to accommodate the idea we had for our cake and it turned out perfectly! Everyone at the wedding couldn't stop talking about how much they loved it. The frosting was particularly amazing, and unlike a lot of cakes where the frosting is too thick and sugary the italian buttercream that Small Oven used was incredibly delicious and soft. The price was very fair and they were able to deliver our cake for a little extra, it was nice to not have to worry about it. Have also been in here for the cupcakes before too and they were also delicious. Will have to return at some point for breakfast.

i got three loafs. they were all incredible. this is my new favorite spot, and i will be driving the distance to come here often because it is worth it. probs some of the best bread i’ve had in my life

So like, obviously I ordered tea to have dine-in. And they said they were out of mugs so they asked if I wanted it in a to-go cup, but I was dine-in. What heck? terrible. Then I wanted to get french toast. And I asked for it without the sweetened cream cheese. They said it was fine, but like I dont want sweetened cream cheese why is it on the menu? Also without a tart element the French toast is kind of really sweet. Maybe they could have some berries with it for a tart element? Jk. Here's my real review. Love this place

Small Oven is that kind of hidden gem that you dont want to draw attention to, because it will get to busy to go. The coffee is really good, I will have dreams and crave the egg sandwich on Brioche. The neighborhood feel draws you back. As much as I want to keep the secret, I want them around for a long time.

I’ve heard good things about this place, but was thoroughly disappointed with my purchases. Not only were the displays unlabeled, but the menu was hard to navigate. I bought a cookie and a “house made” hot chocolate, but hot chocolate simply tasted like boiled water and a pre bought powder. The cookie tasted pretty good, except it was both hard on the outside and raw in the inside, which would be fine if it wasn’t also cold. The servers were really nice and welcoming however the food was unsatisfactory. Had high hopes for this place, but will not be going back any time soon.

The best bakery I've ever gone to, the cupcakes, sandwichs, sticky buns, chocolate Eclairs, and basically everything else is PHENOMENAL. If you want to eat in restaurant be aware their isn't much seating. Overall really great experience.

Thank you so much for creating the most beautiful cake! I ordered lavender with raspberry buttercream and it was SO delicious, everyone loved it :)

My new favorite Saturday morning stop. The pastry selection is incredible and there’s usually something for everyone. I appreciate that they have decaf espresso so I can still pretend to drink caffeine while I nibble on a freshly baked pain au chocolat. Arrive early, they sell out fast!

Small oven was my savior during covid, I would order ahead and pick up outside the go to the bike path and eat it with a view. Still enjoy going there today

Great little shop, the baked goods are good and the coffee is enjoyable, just a bit too small inside for comfortable seating, since they do a great business, it's always crowded, especially with takeout orders, try the cardamom bun!

Just enjoyed a fabulous hunk of pastry at small oven. Cornmeal blueberry pound cake. Seasonal, bright with lemon and tart with fresh blueberries. It was a bit mind blowing really! Well done!

Delicious breakfast and great coffee. Had a breakfast sandwich on brioche and shared a plum scone that was so moist. Highly recommend.

After reading the reviews, I had to stop here when we were nearby. I got their roasted squash sandwich with a cappuccino for lunch and a loaf of VT wheat for later. The folks that work there are very friendly and helpful. The sandwich was amazing! Messy to eat but a wonderful combination of flavors. The coffee was so good I ended up purchasing a pound of beans as a gift for my husband. If you are in the vicinity of this bakery, definitely check them out.

They do a lovely job with sandwiches and salads at lunchtime a friendly little bakery that makes great sandwiches and salads and has wonderful baked goods in the heart of these Easthampton mass

Would give them 10 stars if I could. Really unique desserts. Very talented baristas who actually know how to make a latte. Very good and inclusive vibe. Vegetarian options. They are great

We found this bakery after several restaurants in Northampton swore by their bread. It's unassuming from the front - it's located on what must have originally been a beautiful bustling street, a few doors down from a chain grocery store, and a few tables and chairs for outdoor eating. The interior is a well oiled machine - a place to order, and long tables to pick up your bagged orders. There's even a water station. The food is delicious - I will one day recover from the pickled jalapenos that somehow got on my egg sandwich because the rest of the ingredients were amazing. The roll was very crumbly, so prepare napkins. Place an order for one of their loaves of bread, because they will make a perfect accompaniment to your dinner or lunch during the week!

This place is a true gem. When I hear "artisanal" and "local" buzzwords, I tend to be skeptical, but Small Oven delivered way above my expectations. Ham and Middlebury Blue Cheese Sandwich: Super delicious! I believe this was served on their own sourdough bread, and it made all the difference. The ham was fresh and plentiful, and the pickled onions added a really nice touch to the overall flavor. The blue cheese was really creamy/smooth and tasted high quality as well. This comes with potato salad or sweet greens (add ~$2 for greens). I had the potato salad which was tasty and had plenty of veggies, but I would add something to make it a little creamier (minor suggestion). Vegetarian Croissant: Really good as well. For just ~$3, we could not resist. The croissants here are some of the best we have had (ever?? perhaps); they are slightly crunchy and flaky on the outside, with a light and buttery inside, as you would typically want with a croissant. The cheese and kale were good additions. One suggestion would be to try spinach instead of kale, as spinach tends to provide more flavor. Ham and Cheese Croissant: Same croissant comments here. Very good addition for ~$3. Highly recommend adding either croissant to your meal. The ham and cheese went well with the croissant. Relative to the size of the croissant (pretty large), there could be a bit more cheese and ham (this goes for the vegetarian croissant as well), but otherwise no suggestions. Price: 5/5 Quality: 5/5 Quantity: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 3/5

Great food from the avocado toast to the coconut frosted chocolate cupcake!! Very friendly staff and chill place to hang

Love this place! Best bakery around! Love to buy there brioche rolls, crosaints honesty I have yet to try something I don't love!

It was a fairly cold day and I decided we would have homemade soup for dinner. The first thing I thought of to go with a delicious homemade soup is a fantastic loaf of delicious bread. I stopped by small oven and picked up two loaves of fresh bread. I picked a cranberry walnut and a sourdough. Both were crusty and chewy with delicious flavor. Great with the soup. Also great toasted. The people there were very nice and helpful and I would highly recommend.

I love this place. Each dish is delicious and creative. Their breakfast sandwich is amazing. Love their specialty lattes. I had their lavender cake for my bday and my friends all loved it. A true gem. Oh and their bread is everything bread should be and more!

The Greater Northampton area is rich in bakeries and bookstores. One of the finest bakery-cafes is the Small Oven. While its footprint is small, its seasonal varieties reach out across many baking traditions. Unlike most bakeries that purchase pre-made croissant dough, Small Oven makes its own which gives it a fresh, crisp texture. Their sandwiches are epic, large in size and flavorful. My favorite is the ham and Berkshire Blue. Small Oven probably created the local demand for cardamon buns, which aren't really buns, but lovely, twisted strips of dough with the most fantastic flavor.

I love their baked goods whether at their shop or at the various cafes who rely on them. I just wish they stayed open later. Try the breakfast treat with cardamom .

Love this spot. Excellent, personable staff serving exceptional baked goods with a smile. Love that it's a true neighborhood spot. Sourdough is stellar. Preserved lemon salad is a must!

Hands down the best crusty bread and buttery flaky pastries in the Valley. I've been enjoying small oven for years now and have yet to try something and not like it. A wonderful gem of a local bakery. Truly fresh and magnificent pastries. If you go here and are struggling to decide what to get here are some of our favorites: almond croissant, ham and cheese croissant, their cinnamon roll things....I mean heck really you can't go wrong with anything here. I'm getting hungry writing this review....

I stumbled upon this place by happenstance and oh man- yes- it is SO GOOD! Thank goodness for Serendipity. This was the precious, delicious, unsuspecting cafe I have been looking for: 1) UnREAL baked goods. The chocolate croissant was still warm and delightfully flakey 2) My breakfast was simple, well seasoned, and very satisfying. The greens were lightly dressed and the eggs & tomatoes had the right amount of salt and pepper 3) the environment was very unpretentious and was quite calm and quiet despite there being at least 7 customers there (it's a small space) and an open kitchen/bakery. One baker was making buns and other some kind of fondunt. 4) Homemade ginger lemon iced tea Looking forward to coming back!

I can't speak enough about them owning the breakfast sandwich game far and near, but they make amazing cakes as well!!! That cake was delicious and beautiful. Thank you for the quality in all that you do.

I was having a rough morning and Small Oven's hearty, rich, SCRUMPTIOUS vegetarian borscht, along with it's crusty, squishy buttered whole grain tender buttered bread companion, literally renewed my faith in the world. The staff Got It when I shared my feelings. What a wonderful place--and hopefully place to work, too.

The best people work there. And the food is always changing and always amazing. The sticky buns are a mist if you're undecided. .

small oven did it again!! My son's beautiful lavender cake with citrus buttercream frosting space cake

Amanda and the team are awesome. They serve some of the best pastries I'v had , and the Lux sandwich in the morning in definitely a winner. Love this place

The croissants here are pure heaven! Best I've had outside of France. Coffee is really good too. We've loved all of the pastries we've tried here but make sure you come early because they do sell out quickly.

Some of the best muffins/sticky buns/cookies you will ever have! Recently bought a zucchini & currant muffin and a seasonal blueberry and corn cookie, and they were both the perfect balance of buttery, sweet, and salty. Both had nice crispy exteriors. The muffin was not *too* sweet. Also, great lunch sandwiches! A must try!!

I ordered a cake for my 21st birthday and it was so much more delicious than I could've hoped. The mix of the lavender flavoring and the way the frosting just melted in your mouth was perfect. I will definitely be ordering again!

This place is pretty solid. I normally just get their bread with the cheddar and parmesan rosemary being my personal faves. Ambiance/Staff: Place has several small tables with seating in the high teens. The staff was patient and willing to answer my any questions that I could think of. Food: I did stop in for lunch with the lady after a Mt Tom hike. We split the brisket sandwich. Very good flavors and the only thing I would do to improve this is actually tearing the cilantro leaves off of the stem. I don't need a solid 4" piece of stem on my sandwich... take the extra 30sec your patrons will appreciate it. The potato salad wasn't a knockout but certainly not a bad representation. I also got a plain latte that was decent. Overall: A pretty good place to grab breakfast or lunch made with real ingredients and fresh bread. If I was more local I would definitely haunt their establishment more often. If driving by swing in for a tasty meal or delicious loaf of bread.

Food is delicious, friendly wait staff. Deserts are to be experienced. Will go back for more!

God, this place is good. Their coffee is amazing, I always get a dirty chai and never have to add milk or sugar to it as it is perfectly strong and bitter yet just sweet enough. I've had the pain au levain, Grafton smoked cheddar, and rosemary parm sourdough breads, all amazing; their chocolate eclairs are great too. The star of the show is the breakfast sandwich (add bacon), served til 11:30, get there early enough to have it on a croissant before they run out as it truly makes a difference. Lunch sandwiches are good too; I'm partial to the prosciutto sandwich with gremolata. Staff is friendly and attentive. Always a pleasant experience!

Nice food, chill place, great iced tea and sandwich. Just what you'd expect and want from a small Cafe! Sandwich was great and iced tea wasn't too sweet.

Without disclosing too much about myself I am a member of a protected class and when I went in one of the owners said my partner could not be there.I felt extremely unwelcome. I did protests and was eventually served a brisket which was tasty. I felt terrible that I was not able to take full advantage of the experience. Also, until indoor dining reopens outdoor seating quite noisy next to Road. #boycott small oven!

This place is nuts! Like everything is awesome! I had this salad and a coffee and the salad was so simple but perfect in every way. I could eat the shit out of there stuff all week!

Excellent coffee. Beautiful, expertly done pastry. I brought an assortment of breakfast bakes to a family brunch party and everyone was blown away. Quality and craftsmanship!!!

Christmas eve morning with an avacado toast and a latte! The staff couldn't be friendlier or more pleasant to be around! It smells amazing in there and you just want to try everything they have fresh and yummy! Support our local business, Dunken doesn't need another penny! And trust me it's worth getting out of your car for!

The bread is ok- the baguette is nothing special; the 5-grain is good. Their croissants, cakes and other pastries are very good. Don't order a coffee and expect to get it quickly. Your order goes into the queue, so if you're behind several people with large orders you may be waiting 20+ minutes for an iced coffee. Basically, they're ordering system could use some work. Some of the staff is a little rude, but things are crazy right now due to covid so who knows what struggles are taking place behind the scenes. Also, the sign on the door states a 5 guest maximum in the store at one time- this is not being enforced. I probably won't be going back unless ordering gets more streamlined and they're are less people shoving their way into the cafe.

Small Oven in Easthampton is the kind of place you hope to discover when you travel. It's small, probably seats about 20, very quaint with a really nice all natural food vibe. The menu is limited, consisting of healthy salads, a small selection of sandwiches, and a few breakfast items. This is the second time I've visited, and I was not disappointed. Last time I was here my friend had the chickpea and grapefruit open faced sandwich, and she raved about it. I ordered it this time, and it did not disappoint. The seemingly disjointed ingredients of grapefruit and chick pea blend so well on top of the crunchy fresh baguette making for a deliciously light and healthy sandwich which is served with a side of fresh greens. The salads all look pretty nice. One of my party had the quiche which unfortunately was burnt on the bottom and nothing really special. This is a cute place that is nice for a light lunch.

Amazing bakery/sandwich and lunch place. Freshly baked breads and rolls for sandwiches and amazing healthy entrées. Can't beat it for lunch.

Small ovens food and baked goods are consistently delicious, and their staff is friendly and generous.

This place is amazing. Ingredients are largely locally sourced. People are friendly. Come here for real food.

We ordered two layer cakes for a family celebration. Not only were the cakes delicious, they were beautifully decorated with fresh flowers. Our guests loved the lemon cakes, one with a chocolate ganache filling and frosting, the other with a buttercream filling and frosting. The cakes had a delicate lemon flavor and were not overly sweet. Staff were helpful and professional and we were able to order the cakes over the phone. Would highly recommend Small Oven for their delicious breads and cakes.

Again Small Oven delivers! Went for Sunday breakfast today and was surprised by bfast being as good and maybe better than already my favorite lunch spot! Omg I kept asking Amanda--'what is that you just served ?' And three times she said 'toast and eggs' Each plate looked more and more delicious--yet was the same dish!! The soft boiled eggs are an egg perfection!!! We had the Tourtine and it was a breakfast for a queen!!! Again soft boiled egg, of course amazing bread, crazy bean spread and tasty arugula with some veggies. Ah-mazing! I really can't say enough about this breakfast. Best best best breakfast! Thanks Julie and Amanda. Oh, and a simple espresso!!! Yum!!!

I love the pastries here at Small Oven. And the awesome counterhelp. Everyone is so nice, and knowledgeable. Ok, so let's break it down: The good: The people all seem awesome. The food is SO fresh. The beverages are decent quality. The Bad: It's a small location. Go early, or what you want is going to be out. It's kinda hella hipster. The case is oftentimes poorly labelled. The Middle: I'm not a HUGE fan of the texture of their quiche. It's VERY soft. (Which was great after I had teeth work done.) but if you (like me) prefer to have your eggstuffs sort of firm... Well, you won't find that here. That said, the flavors are really good. My kids have told me firmly that they're not fans of this place (Even tho they LOVE the sweet baked goods) My kids are a little picky and on the kid end of the spectrum, but not obnoxiously so. (They'll try just about anything. They may not like it, but I give them props for trying it.) They were decidedly not fans of the quiche. (Even the one with bacon in it, and they LOVE bacon.) I go there mostly for lovely baked goods. I haven't gotten a loaf of bread there yet, but it all looks delicious.

Whoa I had the best "sandwich" here, if not the best in my life then at least in a very long time. It wasn't a sandwich so much as hummus toast with vegan yumminess all over it. There were bites with preserved lemon, which is now one of my favorite things, and occasionally something sweet, and the greens on top were fresh and perfectly dressed. My daughter had the egg and cheese sandwich, which was also delicious. I wish I lived nearby but I'll definitely be back when visiting the area in the future!

This place is adorable. staff is so kind it is just altogether a cool place and I dont LOVE the food but it is still good

I love this food! Everything is fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and pleasant. I will definitely return.!

Laughter and smiles goodness fills my belly and warms my heart. _________________________ Small Oven is quite possibly the friendliest cafe evah.

Excellent breads at this little bakery, however they sell out early very often. This is a problem. I've been here many times trying to get 1 loaf of bread. A line of people with others who want the same thing. All told they are out of all bread except for sandwiches. And I'm talking about being here at 10-11am...

This is a very friendly little place. That's why I gave it 3 stars. Luckily the cappuccino was only $2.75 as it was one of the most depressing cappuccinos I've come across in this area. I had a ginger scone which was very dense and I ended up throwing it out. All the other baked goods ...croissants etc was baked towards the " burned side " so I wasn't tempted to get that either. I can't see myself coming back.

This was our once-a-week breakfast treat before Covid. Would like to reinstate the tradition, but still being cautious. Their breakfast sandwiches are delicious and filling. Last time we were there (2 years ago, so take this with a grain of salt) the coffee was not great. But the food makes up for that.
