Uptown Downtown - American restaurant in Ruston - 94 S Vienna St, USA

Even with the Peach Festival going on, the cashier was pleasant and friendly. Snickerdoodle cookie was amaze balls and so was the brownie. Birthday cupcake was a hit and all cost les than $10. Cute outdoor seating with some board games available to play.

Always have freshly baked cupcakes, cookies, brownies and a variety of sweets! They also have a nice lunch menu with soups, sandwiches and a huge salad bar that is available until 5pm. Indoor and outdoor seating right next to the historic downtown Railroad Park. Love this place!

Salad bar LOOKED and smelled good, but something in it was off - my stomach objected by the time I got home. Nice picnic area for outside dining. Friendly but quiet and reserved staff member. Prices much too high for a return visit.

We ordered a cookie cake for my granddaughter’s birthday. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. The cookie was so stale we had to use a butcher knife to cut it. I wish I had videoed the facial expressions of the guests who took a bite, then immediately spit it out. The decorations were strange and seemed haphazard. Her birthday wish phrase was incomplete. This terrible cookie cost $72.00. I wonder if the bakers ever taste their own creations. Needless to say, we won’t be back. I subbed in 2 delicious $10.00 cookie cakes from Super One. (And the decorations were personalized and adorable). Don’t waste your money buying pastries from Uptown Downtown.

Cute little bakery. Their detailed receipts never match what’s charged on your credit card. Cookies are cute but don’t taste that great.

Good cookies and sweets! not really the variety I was hoping from a bakery but we’re from out of town so I don’t know what their “thing” is—service was great though!

Locally owned and operated! Sandwiches are great with fresh ingredients. I also got a variety of cupcakes. They were all delicious. Friendly staff! I stopped in at lunch time, they were really busy the staff worked together to service the customers promptly.

Have tried their desserts at events where they catered or were purchased from in bulk. Cookies, chocolate fudge, and lemon bars were way too sweet. Some items are well-balanced but the amount of sugar used is just way too much. Some of their desserts were very well decorated and the items are consistent in shape and appearance. Overall good attention to detail but lacking in the flavor dept. In my opinion.
