Do you offer a gluten free cake??
One of the best experiences we have ever had! Not only is the food magical, but the owner is a fantastic person. We would recommend this place to absolutely everyone...or keep it our little secret.
MoreGood home cooked food and wonderful desserts. Cookies are buy one get one for the last hour they are open while supplies last. Great holiday take home food (Thanksgiving meals and the like for reasonable prices)
MoreReally, really, nice staff and quite tasty sandwiches (all I've had). Prices are exactly what you should expect in Barracks Road, but the quality of product is better than most other options around. Unfortunately they seem to run out of baguettes before 5pm quite frequently, so a dinner sandwich is hit or miss.
MoreAlways a treat - and the desserts are over the top! Free WIFI is the downside; the place has limited seating and there are folks that camp out for free WIFI. It's often hard to find a table. It's worth navigating Barracks Road. YUM
MoreSo I have been going here since I drove the CTS bus in 2006. So off and on for over 10 years, yes I am a townie but the food is good but if you aren't a student then you clearly are NOT treated like a welcomed customer.
MoreExcellent treats and drinks
Unbelievably great food!!! The people are as sweet as can be! Thank you Lisa and Frankie for making our visit so memorable.
MoreCustomer for 27 years. Loved so much worked there as well. Continue to support as long as Lisa is the owner. The food is real and the desserts are unsurpassed.
MoreI tried ordering a favorite item for an event and based off of that experience, I’m guessing your best bet is to simply buy what they have in stock on a given day, if they have it. I do not suggest trying to use for catering.
MoreThe lemon square was very good, I've had better. The parrot cupcake was phenomenal, the frosting was delicious. The Hyde Park chocolate cake was not very good for a bakery, the cake was not super moist, and the frosting wasn't anything special, it tasted like Entenmann's with canned frosting.
MoreWonderful cakes, all available by the slice. Good tea selection.
Enjoyed the dark roast coffee. The environment is really welcoming.
I used Hot Cakes for catering our company holiday party. They were professional and so easy to work with! I received so many compliments on the food. Really though, the best thing about working with Hot Cakes is that I actually got to enjoy the party knowing that they would take care of all the details. A+, would use again!
MoreThe employees here are very friendly, the service is fast, the prices are reasonable, and the food is great! I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good bakery in Charlottesville.
MoreThe staff is friendly and the food is fresh. It can be a bit pricey, but its quaintness makes up for it. Display cases boldly show restuarantgoers the delicious variety of their goods
MoreI ordered a delightful drink while waiting for a business meeting. The picture is of their drink, "the Nutella," a latte with hazelnut and home made chocolate.Oh, and my wife and I got our customized wedding cake here, too. 7/5 Stars
MoreLisa made our wedding cake, and it was the hit of the reception! Simply beautiful, and oh so delicious!
Moreextraordinarily tasty hot and cold meals plus a full service bakery. veggie friendly options.
MoreDry cakes ok icing tho
Desserts are wonderful, a bit pricy perhaps. I've only had the food once and it was alright, but really this is a go-to place for desserts as long as you don't mind paying a bit extra!
MoreBest place to eat, huge part of cville community for decades!
Hotcakes is a gem, offers a wide variety of breakfast and lunch options, many of which are vegetarian, and amazing desserts. Do not let the non-descript strip-mall location fool you, this cafe is worth your time.
MoreI enjoy their food most of the time. However one day I came in to make a purchase and one of the boys working their was quite rude. I quietly stood there waiting in line while he and two other young ladies were waiting on people. The young lady asked one of them to help me(neither of them seemed to want to help me either),and he rudely said out loud "Well she'll just have to wait!" I had said nothing the whole time. And because he chose to be so rude for nothing,I don't find the food as enjoyable anymore. If I had said something or been rude they would not have wanted to serve me,so why should I want to receive anything from people that have no respect for me. I will gladly take my money elsewhere and let my friends know as well. The kid with the moustache can be rude to someone else.
MoreGreat desserts and tasty meals. Good for stop in or dine in or out. Give it a try and then plan your next visit.
MoreLunch, coffee, and baked goods are all *chef kiss*
Love the delicious lunches and desserts! We had quiche and Turkey, brie and fig jam sandwiches! Eat in, take out, and catering. They have a few outside tables under shade too.
MoreTheir pumpkin muffies are the best! Good food, good atmosphere and I love their new outdoor covered patio.
MoreDecent sandwiches. I don't like it but my gf does
The food is good but portions are small and over priced, considering when I asked a FOH employee the starting wage (when hiring was advertised) she told me minimum.I edited my original rating from from 3 to 1 star because I was appalled at the owners sarcastic and rude response. From my experience in jobs like this, tips are very scarce and definitely do not double your pay (?) very dishonest and unprofessional
MoreThis place is a wonderful spot to get something delicious to eat, I love being able to do tapas-style multiple dishes at a great price. Also they serve dessert and coffee drinks, so it’s a crowd-pleasing spot. One time my little girl dropped her bowl of food and the staff replaced it free of charge. Customer service like that is simply the best, thank you!!
MoreBest place to grab a meal in town, hands down. Great staff and managers that walk around to keep everything clean and tidy.
MoreGot my beautiful wedding cake for a fair price. Decorated with mountains and trees! Prompt communication, nice people, accommodated changes to the kitchen cutting cake.
MoreI witnessed a staff member attack a woman with a service dog asking if it was a service dog or a “therapy” dog using air quotes with her hands. She went back and forth with the customer loud enough for everyone to hear then went to two individuals sitting alone and very rudely said they needed to move and sit together so that others could have a table. there was no please- only aggression. No hospitality. Terrible environment and an awful image for a coffee shop that seems to be trying to promote its acceptance of university students and employees by offering free coffee for 2 weeks. I’ve never witnessed a more nasty encounter in public. Shocked and horrified.
MoreA friend of ours placed an order for cupcakes to be delivered to our home as a surprise. The man who delivered the cupcakes arrived while we were out in the neighborhood walking the dog. I left the front door unlocked as we were just circling the neighborhood. When we arrived back, we found the man walking out of our front door. He walked INTO OUR HOME while no one was there, walked INTO our office and set the cupcakes on top of a laptop computer. When he saw us walk up, he did not explain what he was doing there or what he had done. We had to check the entire floor to make sure nothing was missing or out of place. We are furious to say the least. Not to mention a stranger entered our home without our permission DURING A PANDEMIC.
MoreGreat place to eat, have coffee, delicious desserts. Very friendly environment.love it.
MoreA delightful lunch spot. Great food, great place.
It was a really great first time being here. The staff was really patient with my questions and order. Such a great place! They also have food besides desserts and pastries! Great selection, great prices.
MoreExcellent food far above any chain. Lots of choices Awesome desserts. Friendly staff. Good service. Nothing like it anywhere in the state of Virginia.
MoreHot Cakes was able to accomplish the exact cake theme I wanted and it was absooutely delicious to boot! Did I mention that I contracted less than 2 weeks from my wedding? Extremely responsive. Couldn't have asked for a better wedding cake!
MoreIt was good but for a bakery... there’s not much in there. Also pricey.
I ordered two cupcakes and they were both hard. I ended up throwing them away.
I have enjoyed HotCakes food and coffee for years. This is my favorite little bakery/breakfast/lunch/coffee spot in Cville. Lisa catered my wedding in June and was incredibly professional. Her staff was amazing. She made my wedding look magazine quality with great food and service at an affordable price (for Charlottesville which is very expensive generally for weddings). Seriously great choice for wedding caterer. Everyone loved the drinks, the desserts, and the little attention to details.
MoreThis place is hit or miss. Sometimes the food is delicious and sometimes it's like poorly microwaved and dry. The egg, pesto, mozzarella breakfast burrito I just had tasted like rubber. Some of the staff is a little surly but the gentleman who walks around checking to see if anyone needs anything is very pleasant.
MoreI ordered online for delivery and part of my order was missing. When I called Hot Cakes, I was put on hold for several minutes, then told that everything was in the bag when it left the restaurant, and perhaps the delivery driver had taken it. (Since the food goes out in an open bag, it might well have fallen out somewhere between the restaurant and my house, but I was surprised that they would accuse the driver of stealing it.) I was put on hold again for several minutes longer, supposedly so they could check and see if someone could deliver my missing food. Finally, I was told that Grubhub would call me. I realize that in any business mistakes happen, but I feel that this was handled very unprofessionally. At this point, I am supposed to be getting a refund for the missing food, but that hasn’t happened yet.
MoreFor $10 I had a lamb slider with 2 vegetable sides. All good was fresh, high quality and full of flavor. I see posts saying it's pricey but I don't agree. I spend more at Panera for chain food and the quality does not compare, let alone the diversity of menu options.Did not try dessert menu but the baked goods have high visual appeal. Lots of care in creating them.
MoreAbove and beyond expectations.So many good qualities about this store. Establishment: extremely clean upkept and a very nice atmosphere.Food: a unique blend between menu items and prepared foods. Everything is made fresh daily with a huge selection of extremely well made and flavorful food!A really cool aspect of their food is the pick and choose style, get 1/3 a pound of this, 2/3 (or any portion size) of this to create your preferred blend of great food.Service: incredible, all the staff was very personable and reached out to ensure you were well cared for. The owner went out and was handed us extra servings of something we were looking at but didn't end up choosing. A nice touch was how much the owner clearly cared about and was proud of the work and food.The food was all amazing and had great flavors! I will be coming back for sure.Bonus: if you are a UVA student ask about free latte (I dont know how long it'll last)
MoreThe kindest owners. Lovely staff, perfect food and calm atmosphere. Personally love the salmon sliders and desserts but suggest trying everything. Hot Cakes will continue to have our support for years to come!
MoreIts awesome. Everything they do is gold!
