Upper Crust Baking - Davis & Winters

09/02/2026

Each Wednesday we turn our 10-ton hearthstone deck oven up to 11 and turn out some amazing artisan pizzas.

While we have a variety of specialty pizzas, The Solstice, our fig-forward seasonal pizza is available during fig season. This fine pizza consists of green onion, fresh figs, crumbled chèvre, premium prosciutto, and is topped with arugula and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. 

Remember that we offer a Big Garden Salad and carry a variety of local wine, beer, and other beverages.

Order online (link in bio), stop in the bakery, or call us to place your order, so that you can take your pizza home or enjoy it on our patio. Walk-ins are acceptable too and we’ll have pizza by the slice!

If you haven’t tried our Demi Chocolate Baguette yet, there’s a reason it keeps disappearing from the table 🍫🥖

This bakery favorite brings together our artisan bread with chocolate for a simple combination that’s become a very popular pick. It’s great with your morning coffee, as an afternoon treat, or warmed up at home when you’re craving something sweet.

You can find Demi Chocolate Baguettes at the bakery and at our stand at the Davis Farmers Market, so keep an eye out the next time you stop by.

If you’ve been wondering what everyone keeps grabbing, this might be your sign to try one 🤍

Join us Friday from 5pm to 9pm for the new menu, live music, local wine and beer, apéritifs, mocktails, and the Bistro Night atmosphere that’s quickly becoming one of our favorite ways to spend a Friday in Davis 🤍 

Bistro Night has been quite the hit lately, and we’ve loved seeing our patio filled with good food, drinks, and so many familiar faces every Friday evening 🍷✨

This week brings something new! We’re saying goodbye to our Spanish inspired menu and introducing a brand new menu to Bistro Night. If you’ve been joining us for Noche en España, thank you for making it such a fun chapter. Now it’s time enjoy our new menu, “La Dolce Vita.” It pulls inspiration from various regions of Italy, along with all the wonderful produce summer has to offer.

Along with a new menu, the Suspenders will be joining us for live music, giving you another reason to grab a drink, order a few plates for the table, and settle in for the evening. 🎶

A little bright, a little elegant, and a whole lot of lemon 🍋✨

Our Lemon Charlotte Entremet starts with a soft lady finger sponge base and wrap, filled with light lemon mousse and a bright lemon curd center, then finished with fresh fruit on top.

The combination of airy sponge, creamy mousse, tart lemon curd, and fresh fruit makes every bite refreshing and balanced. It’s a beautiful choice for a celebration, a summer gathering, or simply because the pastry case got the best of you.

Come by and treat yourself to a little something sweet 🤍

Tonight is the last opportunity to enjoy our “Noche en España” menu before we switch things up with a new menu and live music on August 28th!

To honor the rich Spanish wine heritage, we’ll be featuring wines from Turkovitch Family Wines that are exclusively made with Spanish grape varietals!

🍇 🍷 Albariño - Garnacha - Tempranillo 🍷 🍇

We can’t wait to share these dishes and refreshing beverages with you all this evening on our patio!
