I have visited Hillside Hearth several times. My experience has always been good. What I love most is walking in and smelling the aroma of fresh baked goods. There's a wall stocked with a variety of beautifully baked breads. The showcases contain French Macarons, cake slices, buttery croissants, muffins, pastries, and sometimes quiche. There are gluten-free options.
They also offer several lunch items. I tried their chicken bacon ranch sandwich. It was ok. It came on a nice sourdough bread with chicken breast, ranch dressing, and field greens. It was missing red onion which would have made the sandwich more flavorful. The sandwich is just over $14. It doesn't come with chips or fruit.
Stop in and check out this establishment for yourself!
