Reading’s back and better than ever
We are thrilled to announce that Upper Crust is Reading has officially reopening – and it’s looking fresher than our freshly baked baguettes. After a short close for renovation, we’re rolling out the baguette-shaped carpet to welcome you back to our unit located on the overpass as Reading station.
So what’s changed?
We have put down new floors, tiled the walls, given it a lick of paint and installed a brand new counter so that we can offer EVEN MORE delicious baguettes – filled to the brim with a great range of different ingredients and flavours. Our walls (inside and out) have our baguette-loving sayings plastered across them so whether you’re popping in for a quick snack or staying for a full-on feast, you’ll love the new layout.
A counter fit for kings
Our old baguette display was looking a little tired. We upgraded ours to a brand new, fit for purpose, bespoke to us baguette display counter. This means you can see everything we offer on full display. Held ambient, (because cold baguettes = soggy baguettes), our delicious easy-to-grab sandwiches are made fresh every 3 hours and 45 minutes. This means the ingredients are fresh and the bread is always crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Exactly the way they are supposed to be.
Freshly brewed, hot & ready
What goes better with a baguette than a drink? We’re back selling all the favourites – lattes, cappuccinos, espresso, tea, herbal tea and hot chocolates. And don’t forget that our Autumn range of drinks have officially dropped (matching the temperature! Brrrr!), and so you can now pick from pumpkin spiced latte, pistachio flavoured hot chocolates or frappes or other winter warmers.
Something sweet for someone sweet? (That’s you.)
Although baguettes are our favourite child, remember we’re also partial to a pastry. Croissant, Pain au Chocolat and Almond Croissant are all part of the line up in the morning as well as homemade muffins, homemade brownies and homemade granola bars (better than your grandma makes!). We’ve called up our mates at Millie’s Cookies and borrowed their recipe for their delicious cookies too – you can get a mega version at Upper Crust Reading, Berkshire and in all Upper Crusts. Soft, chewy, and just sweet enough, these treats are the ultimate comfort food for any time of day.
Visiting Reading
So when are you visiting? Remember you’ll find up at Reading station, after you’ve gone through the barriers on the overpass near platform 14/15. The station is a 10 minute walk from the town so you can pop for some shopping whilst fuelling on the go from us!
Make the journey to our newly refurbished Reading store, grab a baguette (or three), and make yourself at home. Because at Upper Crust, life’s just better with baguettes. You know it.
