Scratch Pasta Co. 2204 Bedford Avenue, Lynchburg, VA 24503

"This store is a Lynchburg gem! Whether you are a pasta newbie or an aficionado, you will love this cute store. They have a reasonable selection of fresh and larger selection of packaged pasta that is made from, well, Scratch. In the freezer section, you will find vegetarian and gluten free options, although sparse. Scratch - please consider making your offerings vegetarian friendly - for instance the risotto could be made vegetarian if vegetable stock was used instead of chicken stock. I got the fresh made mushroom pasta. Although it took double the time than recommended to be cooked al dente, the pasta was delicious. If you are looking for gifting ideas for people who seem to have it all, Scratch pasta makes it easy to make your own gift basket. There are gift baskets to choose from instore or online. I got a custom one made at the store. You can also get pasta/cooking related gadgets if you want to make your own pasta, cookbooks, etc. Knowledgeable and helpful staff."

"Everyone needs to come before they make a pasta dish at home to buy fresh pasta. It is VERY reasonably priced, like buying pasta at the store and it is delicious! Lots of freezer and fridge meals and if you need a little basket or gift they have plenty of things to make one!"

"The CUTEST store ! Much more like a gourmet kitchen / food store than just a pasta shop. Perfect for buying gifts or something for yourself. I got my lime juicer here and use all the time! The pasta is of course also amazing and they have fresh pasta here too ! Easy grab and go dinner here - a true must visit store."

"Scratch is often my first stop in town when I visit Lynchburg. If you’re shopping for gifts or seeking inspiration for tonight’s dinner, this is your spot. Each item in the shop is thoughtfully selected by the owner, so be sure to enjoy the details as you browse. Most recently I tried the lemon feta dip - YUM!"

"Reminds me of NY. I grabbed a loaf of frozen Italian bread and about a pound of fresh linguine for tonight’s dinner, chicken and broccoli alfredo. (Yes I know traditionally it’s made with fettuccine, but hey, close enough lol). This was the best authentic Italian bread i have had so far. After allowing it to defrost for a couple of hours, i stuck it in the oven at 325 for a couple of minutes. The. Crust. Though. Perfection! The linguine was my hubby’s favorite part of the dish and with the recommended cook time, it was perfect. I will say I do like my noods on the al dente side though, just a heads up. Overall, the vibe of the store was nice and reminded me of Upstate NY. We will be visiting again!"
