About us

Welcome and thank you for making The Upper Crust a part of your life!

We're David and Marianne Blake, and along with our daughters Allison and Mckenzie, we've had the privilege of serving Lady's Island and Beaufort for more than 34 years. What began as a small, family-run pizza place has grown into a Beaufort tradition where generations who once sat at the counter are now returning with their own children, sharing countless meals and making more memories with us.

We're proud of the food our team prepares: our signature pizzas, the Notorious Grilled Chicken Salad (yes—with fries!), wraps made from our pizza dough, generous portions of pasta, along with our beloved pasta straws, that keep people coming back! Not to mention that our dedicated wait staff strives to treat every guest like family.

Running The Upper Crust has been David's life work! You allowed us to make Lady's Island our forever home, and we are deeply grateful for the trust and support this community has shown our family. Thank you for letting The Upper Crust be "A Slice Above the Rest" for over 34 years and we look forward to serving you for many years to come.
