The Hilltop Bake Shoppe now open in Adelphi!

Adelphi, Laurelville's sister village just across the county line in Ross County, has a new restaurant/bakery. It's called the Hilltop Bake Shoppe and is located on Route 180 in Adelphi. The street address is 19186 Concord St., but that's Route 180.

The owners are John and Yvonne LeMaster, the same energetic couple who opened Thornybrook Farms, a garden/produce store, last year. Some of John's baked goods were sold at the garden store, but the additional new store will feature not only his yummy breads, baked apples, cinnamon roles and pies, but also coffees, pizza and sandwiches.

Dave and I have picked up pizza twice and it is very, very, very good. The crust is too wonderful for words, as is the sauce. We've had a pepperoni & mushroom pizza twice, then added on the barbecue chicken pizza when we had family visit last weekend. It was incredible and I highly recommend this combo, but there are some other good ones available: buffalo chicken, Hawaiian, pulled pork, Philly cheese steak, etc. We like our pizza "well done" which crisps the crust and toppings nicely without burning them.

Without question this is the BEST pizza in this area, and even out of this area. We are already planning to make it a once-a-week treat.

Currently, the hours are limited: 2 p.m. to 9 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday, but these will be extended soon. Only take-out is available, but the dining room will be furnished in the near future.

Call 740-332-0500 (local call for us) to place your order.
