Eclectic menu

Wonderfully tasty bread! Nice staff. Day old bread sold at great prices. Good place for a snack. They also have a shelf of some locally produced goods like honey and preserves.

Scott Deterding

Pre-ordered a 3 meat pizza, was totally disappointed when I got it, wish I would have looked inside the box I would have left it there. I am not exaggerating when I say I could of got more meat on ONE SINGLE SLICE FROM CASEYS. I'd have a $2.79 Tony's pizza an have a lot better pizza than this $15 piece of trash. Suggestion, use envelopes instead of boxes, not enough paper thin pizza to even come close to needing a box unless they stacked them 4 deep. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

Laura Deininger

What a wonderful place for lunch! Comfortable, homey environment and food is to die for. Get there early because they sometimes run out of the "favorites".

Bethany Brunsman

The food was delicious. We tried a couple of desserts and took home some bread, too. Great atmosphere.

Ryan Slemmer

Geoff Russell

Im new here to Hastings. My birthday was coming up and I wanted a great cake for the occasion. My cousins said Back Alley was the best. So I called and ordered a lemon cake. When I picked it up, it was pretty. Later we had cake. We were disappointed. My cousins felt so bad. The flavor was good, the icing was great, but the cakes texure was strange. Rough texture almost dry. We didnt eat the rest. But I want to give them a second chance. I love their breads and jellies. Im not saying dont go there. Give it a chance, its suppose to be the best in Hastings!!!

Keith James

The staff is friendly and helpful. They are mainly a dessert shop but also sell various breads, lunches and pizza on Thursday evenings. I've been going in for over a year and everything I've eaten has been great. Even their plain white bread is a special treat and delicious.

anya compton

They have excellent food, breads and desserts. It has a nice atmosphere and an assortment of treats, etc that you can buy as well. I highly recommend trying it!

Caryl Bohn

The house raised sour dough starter makes for some amazing loaves of bread! The wait staff is incredibly friendly, even when they are overwhelmed with patrons at busy hours. I have a tip for the baked goods. (all what I purchased were dry, over baked, which came across as stale) Your cooled case is lovely, but it is ruining your baked goods. They still need covered in order to stay moist. Your new pumpkin spice bundt is good, but overcooked, dry, and crumbles. You can counter this by adding a half a package of vanilla pudding to your batter, and cover the final product in the case.

Judyo Ryan

Great pizza, desserts, and bread! Love the natural old fashioned atmosphere.

sara colburn

Great service but not many food options. Also very expensive for a lunch option.

I missed the lunch hour on a Sarturday but I was able to have dessert and coffee. The peanutty coconut cookier bar was amazing. I literally boxed it up to take bake to my hotel room to enjoy while watching some tv. The coffee was good too!!

Homemade goodness

Patrick Shane

Absolutely one of the best places in the world I been to. The food and the people are wonderful!

MarKay DeDiana

Best lunch spot in town. Local fare, excellent customer service, simple menu, fresh bread, and sweet treats. Thursday night is pizza night, call ahead to order. They also have good breakfasts, but I'm usually there for lunch. Show up a little before noon if you want to get a seat.

Stopped by this bakery for the first time on my drive back to Lincoln and purchased the Toasted 5 Seed bread. It was a hearty loaf with melt in your mouth flavor and a perfect crust. Worth the detour off I-80.

Always a great experience here! We love the atmosphere & the friendly staff. The food is unique and yummy!! Pizza nights are my favorite, but I've yet to be disappointed in anything I've ordered!

Julian D

The service was slow when there was no other customers in there, the bacon was undercooked. I will not be coming here again. Not happy at all. Took us an hour to get my food. Kidsand the wife had to wait an additional 20 min for theirs.

Kylie Gangwish

Delicious home-cooked meals. The menu is different everyday and I actually really love that. I don't grow tired of the same meal. Their meals are always very filling as well. They include a variety everyday, serving lighter fair to the down-right hearty meal. Everything they serve and sell is made in Nebraska. They have fresh bread and baked goods every morning, too. The cheesy garlic loafs are to die for, would recommend. They also sell some small business products such as Pacha Soaps which is made right in Hastings. The atmosphere is so inviting and warm in the restaurant. For the nice days they do have seating out front as well which is wonderful. All servers I've had here are very friendly and have a smile even when it's crazy busy. If you only have a half hour lunch I wouldn't suggest here as stated before they make everything fresh to order, so you may be pushing it with a short lunch. Very laid back atmosphere. I do suggest this place to friends all the time.

Megan Ruby

Jesse Schmidt

Pizza night on Thursdays is amazeballs!

Britney was exceptionally helpful. Food was stellar for a very reasonable price. Decor is well put together and sorta hipster-y (plates aren't matching, rugged wooden furniture, etc.) Great place! If there's ever another eclipse here, we'll be back!

m schulz

Excellent bread and chai tea

Shelley Rystrom

The food is wonderful and service is superb. I found this while driving through NE. What a blessing this community has to have such a great restaurant.

Christopher Lonergan

I had lunch there today with my wife and daughter. Our waitress (Karen) was delightful. Food was excellent. And make sure you save room for some dessert. You won't be disappointed.

Manuel Zalasar

Great bread

Joe Holm

Friendly place for morning coffee and good bakery, try the cinnamon rolls

Celeste Borg

Delicious homemade bread! Come get the housemade pizzas as well.

Kerry Poggiosantos

Came in with friends who left review below. Order took forever to begin to arrive and then only 3 of 6 meals arrived so the wives and one of the children got to watch the others enjoy their meal. Bacon was raw. Eggs were dry. Offered a refund we never saw. With all the good reviews, I feel cheated. I had been looking for a nice small spot to enjoy breakfasts but that search will have to continue.

Joni Johnson

The bleu cheese bread is wonderful.

Sandy Delp
