This is a must! We drove in from Austin to get that small town feel and was quite surprised with "The Bearded Baking Company" located in a beautiful downtown building with lots of charm. Had a wonderful lunch, looking forward to trying other options from their menu.If you get an opportunity a must try is the "fairly gay" and"Bluebonnet" cookies, maybe a brownie, well worth the calories, all three came home with me.Highly recommended and well worth the drive. Plenty of street parking around the block.

What an amazing place! First, the bakery items were out of this world. Had a cinnamon roll and the icing tasted like it had almond extract in it! Cookies, brownies, banana bread—all great. We also had a little conversation with the owners and they were friendly, funny, and good-hearted. It feels so good to support a small business with delicious food.

My husband and I were pleased to find two vegetarian options here: egg salad sandwich and the pimento cheese sandwich. The pimento cheese was the best my husband and I had ever had. The egg salad was delicious too (I like a bit more acidity) and everything was so fresh. The bread on the sandwiches was SO GOOD. We also got the OG chocolate chip cookie and the oatmeal cookie and those were scrumptious! This was delicious, high quality food.

I needed a Smith Island cake and found this bakery on a Reddit thread and WOW- this cake was INCREDIBLE- absolutely outstanding- this is going to be a new tradition for my son's birthday! It was 20/10! Super easy to work with and really reasonably priced as well compared to bakeries I normally use in Austin. Will definitely be using them again!

Holy hell !!!!! Best burgers in bastrop. I’ve always said that there are not any good burger options in Bastrop….. until today. Every place in this town never seasons their ground beef.The bearded baker does. The meat is seasoned and mixed in and you can taste it. I will never get another burger from any where else. Plus their pastries and baked good are out of this world in quality
Hands down the best chocolate croissant I’ve ever had in my entire life. Not only that but their chocolate sandwich was also delicious. I’d say probably the best place in town.
The smash burgers are the best burger in Bastrop Texas.The chicken salad on the croissant was amazing.We usually get the baked goods and we love them. We are happy we tried the dinner menu!

Needed an evening snack and decided to give this newer downtown business a shot. I had the most fluffy flaky mixed berry danish and a heavenly sweet pecan sticky bun. They scraped up a little of the extra topping and put it on my To-Go sticky bun. That little gesture really proved to me that the folks running this place genuinely want to serve their customers. Their food is phenomenal, and their love for what they do is very apparent. If you're thinking about giving them a try, don't overthink it, just do it.

The owner was very friendly and attentive, you can tell he truly cares about each customer’s experienceI loved the Cowgirl cookie it was delicious. Cowboy cookies are a favorite of mine so it was great to get to try a new version. Yum!
