Wow! I am very impressed with the quality of the baking. They have upped their game since first opened. They are at the level of French bakery. My favorite place in Western Mass! The almond croissant and the pistachio chocolate croissant are to die for!

If you are looking for the best baked goods in the area, look no further! Rise Above delivers on exceptional flavors, presentation, and quality. We got the Almond Croissant and a heavenly marzipan stuffed treat which were both so good they were gone before we drove away. 10/10. The time and effort they put in to providing top notch baked goods is so appreciated, thank you!

We have yet to try anything that wasn't delicious - and we've tried A LOT. That Chess Pie...wow.Parking: On the street right outside!
Not sure if it’s me… but everytime I come in here the people working seem completely annoyed that I am there.Pastries are ok but nothing great , would appreciate a thank you once and a while rather than a completely disdainful person tossing me a bag of croissants and walking away, such ugly treatment! Probably won’t come again - I’ll give my money to upingills lovely bakery
I'm in western MA for the weekend and went looking for a bakery. I happened upon Rise Above. I was looking for a cake, which they don't do. But while I was in there I decided to get a few other things. And honestly, if you are THIS good at bread, don't waste time on cake. These bagels are otherworldly. They are so soft that I couldnt even bring myself to toast them. I didn't personally try the chocolate croissant, but my husband has said, "oh! Wow!" three times now. Some of the reviews mentioned that they staff were short tempered. That was not my experience. They were busy! Like, line out the door at 10am and it clearly had not stopped all morning. They were quick, they didn't stop to make small talk, the weren't amusement park friendly, but they were not anywhere close to rude. They were busy and they moved through a line of 10 people in under 5 minutes. Have you ever seen the Seinfeld soup episode? Yeah, even if they had been nasty (which they were not) the bread would still have been worth it. I don't know when I'll be back out this way again, but if I ever get the chance to, I will be stopping at Rise Above. Well done, folks.

My favorite place to get breakfast in Greenfield! Super fresh, fast and delicious and somehow also a really good deal. I go here pretty much at least once a week and I always look forward to it.As someone who starts work earlier in the morning I’m also really REALLY grateful that they open at 7. It’s super helpful for those days that I just can’t get myself to make my own breakfast and it’s so nice to start the day with strong coffee and a little treat!

I'm so glad I made time to visit this wonderful bakery. The food was inventive and tasty ....a cardamom bun & a roasted carrot ricotta tart. Delish!! the service was friendly & helpful. The owner was kind & listened to my needs as a patron. The ambiance was cute and inviting.
Delicious
