Blue Sky Bakery

Very nice and cozy place at the intersection of W Nelson St and Lee Ave with colorful n not too loud interiors. Very charming chairs. Tried their pesto sandwich which was simply awesome, filling, and appetizing. They make awesome black bean salad, and have organic earl gray tea which is very neat. On top of everything people in-​charge are great human beings. Totally worth the value of your money. Must try for anyone traveling thru 81.

The building is old brick, and the interior is welcoming and cozy. A lot of students come here which may explain the reasonable prices. We had sandwiches on the outside patio and the ingredients were fresh and tasty. Worth the visit!

On a rainy day the corn chowder, chips, chicken salad, pumpkin bread, and a lemon bar! It was awesome! Nice people and warm atmosphere!

Blue sky is 100% open. How do we change the closed to open? People are missing out on a wonderful experience because Unilocal is saying blue sky is closed when it isn’t. Please help!!!

Now, I love sweets. There are few desserts in this world that can best me, and this week I met one of those at Blue Sky — the Buckeye cake. A thick, fudgy, brownie-​like cake layer, topped with a confection not unlike the peanut butter inside a peanut butter cup, all covered in chocolate. Someone hold me. Five bites, and I was unable to go on! Fortunately, the spouse stepped in and took up the gauntlet, vanquishing the pastry. GLORIOUS.
The broccoli-​cheese soup was one of the best I’ve ever had outside my own kitchen, the vegetable foccacia put pizza to shame, and the pimento cheese sandwich was Southern quality. A Greek salad with plenty of feta, olives, and mixed greens completed the meal to perfection; everything was fresh and delicious. Prices? Let’s just say you couldn’t get one of those bone-​dry, stale-​pile-​of-​frosting, trendy cupcakes you find at ’boutique’ bakeries for the price of that monumental slab of cake!
Vegetarian options aren’t plentiful but the ones they have greatly outdo the usual limp iceberg salad and sad cheese sandwiches that are usually pawned off on meatless eaters in many café situations, with plenty of filling choices for the meat-​eating crowd as well. The little bakery itself is charmingly shabby-​chic, with very friendly staff and a menu which, though certainly not haute-​cuisine-​creative, takes the usual soda counter standards and makes them a step above the rest.
If you’re in Lexington, a trip to Blue Sky will brighten your day no matter what the weather!

Great focaccia and soups!!! The black bean soup was delicious and very friendly service.
