The 15 best cake shops and cake bakeries in Catskill Region

Delicious bakery and deli options for dining. Their coffee is always delicious as well. I ordered the broccoli salad and it came out quickly. The bread that came with my salad was filling and had comforting flavor. This location almost always has a line on the weekends and there are limited seating options so keep that in mind!

We really enjoyed our breakfast here! It was so good that we had to come back the next day. We tried the spicy green eggs, the pecan-cashew-walnut butter, the ricotta toast and the avocado toast, the friend egg bun and breakfast burrito. The bread is so so good and we bought a loaf to take home. We also bought some pastries and tried the coffee, which were fine, but not the highlight. Service was great. The place was really busy both mornings we were there but we were able to find seats.

The whipped ricotta toast was mind blowing. A lot of places have been doing this but I find the ricotta a lot of times flavorless, but this one was perfectly seasoned throughout, the honey gave the saltiness a nice balance and the squash was perfectly paired into the toast. Needless to say the bread was also incredible and I chose to add egg in it for some extra pop. I loved the breakfast burrito also which was very simple but everything done right which is hard to find surprisingly. I finished with the mocha which was also great too, definitely check this out if in Woodstock.

Amazing pastries and it's evident why they sell out of stuff so fast. The items here are just too good to pass up and are a must try. I was visiting family from Texas. It was my first time trying a Canelé and I was blown away. It was so good that I actually went home and ordered a dozen copper molds to make them myself. And ever since my trip I've been dedicated to perfecting them. My girlfriend also had the ricotta spread on their house toast and loved it!

Adore this cafe. Great coffee, bread, pastries and breakfast dishes. Friendly staff. Super efficient. Their outdoor seating is a great place to soak in the morning sun and people watch as you sip on your coffee.

Branch coffee place with decent selection of breakfast sandwiches, toasts, cofees and baked pastries. Buckwheat bread is great, so is Vegan Chocolate Spelt Pound Cake - phenomenal!

The ricotta open sandwich was yummy and very good cream puffs, sticky buns and !! Caneli(?) we also got some bread to eat with cheese later. All good!!!!

Best cupcake shop in the area! Literally the cupcakes are all famous here and have won several competitions. The cupcakes are named after all different famous musicians, which I thought was super unique and helped really tie in Woodstock vibes! The lady behind the counter who helped us pick out the cupcakes was super kind, friendly, and patient even though there was a long line on a Saturday. Really took the time to ensure you got everything you wanted! My personal favorite is the Santana. I highly recommend stopping by here and trying one of these delicious cupcakes!

Peace, Love & Cupcakes in Woodstock is an adorable spot that never disappoints! The cupcakes are deliciously moist, with creative flavors that satisfy every sweet tooth. A must-visit for cupcake lovers!

We absolutely love the cupcakes here!!! You can’t go wrong, but the Jimi Hendrix is our favorite (espresso chocolate cake with mocha frosting). The vanilla cake is also super moist. We’ve come here before and gotten a cookie sandwich but honestly the cupcakes are so good you really don’t need them! In our latest visit we got (clockwise from the top) the vanilla/vanilla frosting, chocolate with peanut butter inside, chocolate/chocolate frosting and the Jimi Hendrix! So good and right on the main drag of Woodstock. There isn’t a place to eat inside so it’s more of a grab and go place. Always friendly service and a great spot to grab a sweet!

Stopped in to grab a sweet treat while walking around Woodstock. Nice little place with delicious cakes and treats. Service was friendly as well. It's worth a stop.

Great experience. Saw they won awards, but the real draw was they had GF as well. Cakes were moist, the buttercream perfect level of sweet. Will stop in again when in the catskills.

The best cupcake shop I've been to in a loooong time. Their cupcakes are yummy, decadent, and the perfect size for a sweet treat. I wish I lived closer so I could visit them every week!

Stopped here after hiking this morning at around noon. I bought 4 cupcakes, all delicious! The Jimmy Hendrix, Arlo Guthrie, and Food Network winner one were awesome if you are a chocolate and/or mocha lover. Note they are only open Saturday and Sunday and sometimes run out of cupcakes before closing! Not their fault!

The food was delicious even if the service seemed a bit slow. In my opinion, it was a bit expensive, but it wasn’t that bad. The crust on the pizzas was really nice! Usually when I get wood fired pizza the crust is burnt, but this crust was the right balance. Good sauce to cheese ratio. My partner got the chicken broccoli alfredo pizza (?? I think that’s what it was called lol) and I got just a plain pepperoni. Both were very good and made great leftovers.

I stumbled upon this restaurant unexpectedly, and the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming. I ordered the lamb burger and the clam linguine. The burger was juicy, well-seasoned, and served on a perfectly toasted bun, while the linguine came in a generous portion with clams that were fresh and flavorful. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes to choose from, which makes it even more appealing. We had a wonderful time here—truly a hidden gem in the village.

Got a personal size New York style pizza to go. It was a decent pie. Good for two people. The dessert fridge is heaven. Got slices of pumpkin cheesecake and German chocolate cake. At $8.60 a slice, it's pricey but very tasty.

Food is always good now. Has been improving over the years. Much more than just Pizza. Recently enjoyed the shrimp wrap and several pies. Leave room for desert.😎

Great food! 1st time there. Beautiful quiet town. Stunning area in all seasons. We had an unexpected Great lunch. Very hearty and tastey. Place has outdoor seating too. Place needs some thorough cleaning though.

I'm not here to sugar coat. It's the end of October. Flies everywhere. Undercooked sesame pizza dough. "Wild mushroom" pizza is not wild mushroom and if you ask the waitress she has no idea what the mushrooms are and makes no effort to ask the kitchen (I forage mushroom and based on what I saw they were just shiitake and baby Bella's; not wild) if you put "wild" on your menu don't be surprised when someone asks where they're sourced and what they are because obviously we all know wild mushrooms can kill you if not properly identified. Instead they just list it that way on the menu to sound 'upscale'. Yeah this place has been here forever. Yeah the have a wood fired oven. But they turn tables quickly and undercook the pizza and don't have any passion for produce or ingredients. 3 stars easily. Dont take your success for granted. I also use truffle oil (both black and white) frequently at home and am very familiar with its pungent flavor. They didn't use any like they claimed to on the menu. Mediocre at best with a bunch of Karen's working there who seemed miserable. When she failed to identify the mushrooms or what they are said "well at least it taste good, right?". So lameeee

Placed a large order over the phone and it was made quickly and all the customized options were correct. Prices were reasonable and the menu had something for everyone. French dip, pot stickers, schnitzel, salads, were all delicious and had great flavor.

They did such a beautiful job for my daughter’s birthday cake. I requested pink edges and they went above and beyond for the piping work. On top of that very reasonably priced. It was definitely way less expensive than I thought it would be for a bakery cake. I got a chocolate cake with vanilla custard and whipped cream frosting. The piping was done with buttercream I think but it was DELICIOUS. My daughter turned two this past weekend and as soon as she saw her cake she couldn’t wait to dig in. We didn’t even finish the happy birthday song before she tasted the frosting lol. I will absolutely be ordering from here again. I wish I got a better photo of the edge piping. It was so cute. And the sprinkles they chose were adorable. Loved the little hearts. Also the ordering process was SO easy. They understood clearly what I wanted and made the process as smooth as possible.

Came for the donuts, the donuts were good. They were soft and somewhat fluffy. The apple fritter was more of an apple filled donut that was glazed. The cinnamon roll was ok, kind of reminded me of a boxed cinnamon roll but slightly softer. My favorite thing was the Crumb cake, super soft and great flavor.

Disappointed. I Purchased breads and a few desserts. Everything was previously frozen. Both were still thawing when I got home. This was a normal business day. Not a holiday rush. Black n white cookie tasted 3 days old and coconut macaroon dry. All were old. Bakery selling old as fresh. Shame on you.

Always loved getting breakfast here sadly it’s not the same anymore. My favorite Greek omelette very dry very little tomatoes and hardly any feta cheese at all. My boyfriend’s Spanish omelette dry and disappointing as well. The new owners are cheeping out and ruining the reputation of great restaurant and it shows many empty tables. I’ll be going elsewhere.

So I asked for a picnic themed cake and I got fondant laid onto my 2 year olds cake. $36 for this my 5 year old could have done so much better never coming here again. Don't go viral and start making crap.

We drove there, 1hr 40mins for a quick brunch and to enjoy the foliage on the way up. Got there at 2:10pm and were turned away because the kitchen was closed, but the website says they close at 3pm, I asked for an exception because of the distance we travelled and still no. I was there last year and enjoyed the food and the bakery, so today they were our destination. OK no lunch, ordered a whole cheesecake and assorted pastries totaling $40. I requested a bag especially for the larger cake and was told they don’t have bags that size. Then when I go to pay the first question is what amount tip percentage, are you kidding me, for over the counter service? I paid, snatched my three boxes and bolted out of there. Never again, I’m good, that’s just no way to do business. 3pm closing is misleading. Bags not big enough for the larger cake boxes?C’mon folks. I was so looking forward going up there just to enjoy the ride, scenery, and have a quick brunch, and we previously enjoyed their baked goods, but we’re done there!

Still the best onion rye, but the place has changed. We tried eating lunch but never saw our waitress. We wound up walking out. Even purchasing bread was an unpleasant experience. Online ordered breakfast,and they no longer have homemade hash. It was hash of disappointment. Would go back for the bread, will not try breakfast or lunch again though.

The pictures of the food do no justice , even though the presentation of the food doesn’t look like much - the flavor and quality is very obvious when you taste everything . I’ve been here a few times and I always come back whenever I’m in the area. you can tell a lot of love was put into the whole property - the free play areas for the kids, the animals on site look well loved and happy. Got to see the sheep and goats eat their breakfast and they looked so happy . The gray cat in the store (smoky) is also adorable and very friendly . Staff is very welcoming and friendly . The store has some nice variety of merchandise . Everything in the restaurant and store is very fairly priced . I really can’t say enough good things .

A quick weekend trip. I went with my boyfriend for a quick break. To upstate We had a great time and went to this place for breakfast. I loved it. I was amazed by everything there. The service was excellent, everything was clean, farm-like, everything was natural and very friendly, and the breakfast was delicious. I recommend visiting it if you escape to the Upstate

Love this place! Amazing food! I had grilled cheese with sauteed apples and bacon on sourdough! Yum! Then spent fun money in their wonderful store! Adorable kids' books, canned goods, pumpkins. EVERYTHING! Would love to go back for the buttermilk banana pancakes!

My kids were having an absolute blast on their playground, but I was having an even better time watching my lunch get prepared! I got to witness my cook run out to their garden and pick the ingredients right there on the spot. This kind of thing has only happened to me once before, on a trip to a tiny island outside of Naples, Italy. To find that same fresh, local feeling right here was a nice surprise. If you want a meal that's as entertaining (yes, they have the sweetest little farm) as it is delicious, you've got to see for yourself!

The first time my husband took me here,i was shock.They had a chicken just walking around outside not bothering nobody.The inside was amazing.We went in to to walk around and i saw this huge black stuff bear name Pancake and i tried to take it,but he was too expensive and we didn't have nowhere to put him at.We went back again and Pancake was still there,but hubby brought me Pancake Junior and i love it.Sadly to say,we went back last week just to get there pickles and Pancake was gone.He was sold and i was not happy.But,the cashier said he was in a good home and that all matter to me. You will enjoy yourself in this store and they have so much things from food,clothes,games,toys,etc. A very good store.We will be back.

Found this place on a day trip for a hike up in Windham. I went for a hearty breakfast before the hike. Our server was attentive and the food was tasty. My friend had the apple orchard pancakes and I had the Catskill omelette. We sat outside and while we waited we played cornhole. They have farm animals that they care for that are so amusing to look at if you are seated outside. Overall it’s a good place to get a bite before or after any activity. Oh! Don’t forget their homemade hot sauces!!!!

Wow fantastic! This place rocks. Excellent food (try the French toast) and drink (lots of homemade options like peach tea) and a fun festive atmosphere. Great store chock full of local gifts. Cheerful quick service. And what's really great - there is a free farm with animals like goats and peacocks and pigs, and a little trail to a water fall, and three playgrounds for your kids! This place is wonderful!

Wow what an amazing experience to be able to visit & eat here! Such a wonderful piece of history preserved - a must see IMHO. We visit while in town seeing Bethel Woods and Woodstock history. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Even met Duke Devlin at legend at Woodstock. Highly recommend. Thank you to the folks keeping this history alive.

Stopped here for breakfast after a show at Bethel the night before. This place is amazing. Probably the best rye bread I have had. They have some of the best sausage you will have. The lox plate was excellent and great coffee too. Staff is excellent and attentive. Make it a point to stop!!!

Great staff running things there. Our waitress with curly hair and glasses, so sweet. Sorry for not noting her name. The other ladies were kind as well. The tuna salad with cranberries is my favorite. PS: thanks for ensuring my phone got back to me. I would be afraid to know what that woman would have done if you hadn’t hahaha. 😉

Decent coffee. They are not bad, sometimes nice sometimes kinda mid. My friend & their family wont go back because of their prices / portions, but I do - just much more rarely than I would if it was a bit more thoughtful on the balance. They were extremely nice the first time I went in happy to explain **all the baked goods though there was no expression of interest.. but fair enough! On subsequent visits, it was more of an indifferent demeanor by the same matron. They are a little weird with some pricing, they weigh some of their ingredients non generously… (be prepared for 3oz or 3.5oz portions of chicken in your sandwiches etc.) - not everything has to be huge but there is a hollowness to many of their offerings that fall underneath a normal smaller portion like you would make at home for example. Just good to know.

Absolutely wonderful spot with delicious food. Friendly service, and I love all the art and fresh baked goods. Historical building, cozy ambiance. We had several vegetarians in our party and we were all able to find great choices. Highly recommend.

Great local place to get breakfast and lunches, Has home baked goods like pies and cakes (carrot cake is my fav) I got the “farmers plate “ with sourdough toast and subbed the home fries for a side salad …

Best Carrot Cake of your life 💯‼️ Warm & friendly atmosphere. Always a smile and good conversation.

Went here for breakfast. The staff were so accommodating. The food was amazing. Traditional breakfast with a Latin American flare. Subbed chorizo for sausage and elevated the sandwich so much. Loved it so much went back the next day.

Amazing Everything Lox bagel… my friend had the excellent huevos rancheros! great service, excellent food, good drinks!

Keeping it real since 1920. Definitely felt like a trip back in time. The raisin pumpernickel was good and the peanut butter on toasted banana bread was the bomb.

So I just left this restaurant, and if I could give them zero stars I truly would ! ! The way I was just treated via the owner was atrocious ! I had waited 40 minutes for two orders of French toast & when it came , it was incorrect as far as the quantity . & so I was concerned if it would be resolved in a timely manner so I can eat with my child & family . So I expressed that & instead of being understanding & accommodating . I was given a disgusting attitude via the owner . I decided to take the one order and leave anything else ; far as drinks & pastries I also ordered . This interaction was not only insulting , but as a first time customer I will never return . Oh and to make matters worst I am pregnant . Thank you to Kev , whom is her son ; who came to apologize on his mothers behalf . If you cannot work under pressure and treat all demographics with the same respect & customer service skills as paying patrons . I would highly suggest you don’t own a business . Please do better , as I’m hearing this is a regular occurring thing .

Hot latte with a fruit tart. Delicious. It was hard to choose because they have so many tempting pastries. Restaurant area is clean, and the restroom is immaculate. Did I say the pastries and coffee were yummy?

Very cute! Lots of good food options and great drink menu

4.2 rating.. I go strictly for the pumpernickel with raisins bread. It is fantastic. The rest of their items IMO is decent, but not amazing. You can have a nice breakfast there. Also, the quick made coffee is actually really good.

The tuna is delicious! You can get it as a quick grab 'n go or as a sandwich. Staff were so nice! There isn't much seating inside, but we were able to make it work for our big group!

One of my favorite places to have breakfast on a Saturday morning is The Hudson Valley Dessert Co. Connie and everyone at the bakery always put love into everything they make! This morning I got an egg and Asiago sandwich with avocado and homemade sausage that they make there! It was (and always is,) delicious! I got a cup of hazelnut hot chocolate to have with it! (Please forgive the half-a-sandwich photo. I was so ready to eat it, I forgot to take a photo of the whole sandwich. 😂)

First time visiting the great bakery. Michelle helped us and she was fantastic. There is a wide variety of desserts, as well as lunch options. Highly recommend this beautiful bakery.

HV Dessert Company created a wonderful birthday cake for me. The buttercream was delicious but not too sweet. The fillings of raspberry and lemon with vanilla cake were a perfect compliment. The outside decoration was elegant with tasty white buttercream flowers I so appreciate the time and energy Bella and the staff gave me to create something I would love. Thank you so much. Will see you again

Hudson Valley Dessert Co. always makes the best treats! This is a beautiful gender reveal cake that was made for us to announce our pregnancy and the baby’s gender. You can always taste the love in every bite here!

We received a gift of 7 packs of biscotti, sent directly from the shop. I know the sender wanted to send us biscotti that we could enjoy! (We love good biscotti!) Unfortunately, these are the worst biscotti we have ever eaten. READ BELOW FOR OUR ASSESSEMENT OF EACH: - Orange Chocolate is the best of the 4 kinds we received because the consistency is most like a biscotti. I also like the orange flavor, but I don't taste chocolate at all. - Cranberry Walnut was pretty bland and a little too soft to be considered a biscotti. - Chocolate Chip Almond had the right consistency, but was ruined because of the added cinnamon sugar on top. If not for the sugar, they probably would be okay. - Chocolate Almond were way too hard and nearly flavorless. These are hard enough to break a tooth on. (Unfortunately, we received 4 packs of these). One other note. I didn't see expiration or "baked on" dates. So, I don't know how, or if, they are managing product in that way. I cannot recommend purchasing biscotti from this company. Perhaps their other desserts are exceptional but their biscotti are terrible. We will likely throw out all 7 packages. Photos of the full load and a photo of the biscotti with sugar on top.

The staff was nice. But when it came to the actual food. Ordered an egg sandwich with a bunch of extras: sausage + cheese + croissant. It took forever for the food to show up and resulted in this sad mess of a sandwich. They got everything wrong. And it wasn’t even tasty. I do not recommend this place.

I love bagel places, but there aren’t a lot of good ones in this area. Monticello Bagel Bakery is the exception. First, there is a drive up window, so you don’t even have to leave your car. But, most importantly, the bagels are delicious. There is a nice variety of flavors. I like to mix it up in terms of flavors. I also love the muffins, a nice size and very good. Convenient and tasty.

The Best Bagels in the Neighborhood (Maybe in NYS!) This spot is known as the most popular breakfast joint in the neighborhood, and since we were just visiting, we came in with a bit of healthy skepticism. Well, we were completely blown away. Their bagels are genuinely phenomenal! (I personally think they're better than any I've had in NYC proper.) The texture of their bagels is distinctively moist and delightfully chewy, making them great to eat even on their own without feeling dry. All four of us ordered different bagel sandwiches and every single one was excellent. We immediately went back to buy some extra bagels to take home! We particularly loved the Egg Bagel, Blueberry Bagel, and Chocolate Chip Bagel. They have a drive-thru and you can also go inside to order (though the line is always long!). The only minor downside is the coffee, which is just average. But I would come back solely for these incredible bagels without hesitation! (sorry no pictures as we ate them all before we realized)

When they start Sunday morning, bagels were made fresh the only issue they're not cooked long enough. I highly recommend you toast The Bagles, too soft need to be baked a little longer To make more crispy I ordered two whip cream cheese. They were excellent. First one I had right out of the oven, but it was too soft. The second one I had toasted and it was great. Highly recommend the place. Staff was pleasant very accommodating a big plus for Monticello.

Favorite place to go to for my lunch break. Fast service, awesome employees, great food, can't beat the prices. And the st patties day bagels were great. Best NYC breakfast sandwiches in the Sullivan county area. The owner really takes pride in his craft.

The man at the drive up window today made my day! He was so sweet. He said in all seriousness “one more important thing” and then smiled and said “have an amazing day” and it just made me so excited about my day. You guys are great!

It's hilarious! I've lived here in Monticello for 3 years now and never tried this place until now! The lines were always so long and so I always pushed it off. I regret not trying it sooner! I see now why they have so much business! I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel. So delicious! Very tasty! The service is also top notch! The staff are friendly, efficient, and fast! The way they run things is very organized and orderly. I only deducted a point for not being able to order hot food at the drive thru. I guess I understand it, it definitely helps the line to move quicker but it would be nice! I will definitely be coming back!

The bagels always taste fresh. The sandwiches are good. I didn't have a good experience with one of the male employees there. I find him to be rude.

How cute is this??? Adorable! I was greeted at the door, served quickly and efficiently. All the employees were friendly and seemed happy to be there which was so nice. The place itself is decorated nicely and judging by the lack of product left to buy, it's a busy weekend place. Located conveniently on Main street with ample street parking the Neon Croissant is close to everything in Livingston Manor.

Imagine googling “croissant near me” and finding a bakery that looks appealing that doesn’t require you to drive as far as Brooklyn. That’s exactly what the Neon Croissant provides, high quality, buttery, fluffy pastries in Sullivan county. Their croissant, chocolate croissant are amazing. You should also try their pepper brioche: it’s more like a milk bread, but it’s excellent nonetheless. They also have a cronut, that despite having cinnamon, is quite good.

The same owners as The Walk In across the street and just as wonderful! Great vibes and a cronut that is 10/10! Must go.

We greatly enjoyed all the baked goods we tried from The Neon Croissant. The croissants are truly exceptional; the pastry texture is similar to what you find in France. The dense, fudgy brownie was also delicious, as was the cinnamon bun (just the right amount of icing -- not sickly sweet).

Probably the best croissant I've ever had. Must stop spot if in Livingston Manor

I am a resident of Nashville, TN; I needed some delicious baked items for an upcoming birthday for a dear friend in Livingston Manor! The Neon Croissant exceeded ALL expectations! Everything was exquisite and beautifully done! Thank y’all and thank you Lilly!

The best bakery outside of NYC and by far in upstate NY. The croissants are incredible, as are the danishes, and all the varieties of cookies. Their bread is so delicious and keeps so well. It also lasts forever! I absolutely love this place. You won’t be disappointed. Their specials and flavors are also always interesting and well done. Staff is so friendly and lovely! The space is also beautiful and looks so fresh. Love it here!

How cool is it? Way cool! This little gem is located on North Main Street and offers both indoor and outdoor dining. We were greeted warmly on arrival and served quickly. Lots of goodies to choose from and on weekdays they serve lunch. This place just has a really cool vibe, tons to see and lots to eat. It's not just a bakery it's an experience.

Very rude! I called just to get a price of a breakfast sandwich and was rudely told that I can not be given a simple price over the telephone! So much for respect from a local business! I will NOT be coming to this establishment EVER! And then I was hung up on on top of being rudely spoken to.

friends (elle/lou) transported these wonderfully adorable cupcakes to nj to share them with me. these was just too cute to eat but oh, just the nicest treat and the cupcakes were absolutely delicious 😋

Super cool place! Spoke with Ellen and Louie about the town for a bit, they were super helpful and knew everything there was to know. Their bakery is also decked out with super cool photos, memorabilia, and other unique knickknacks. Their food was delicious as well!

Places like this make it worth leaving the house and it's desserts like theirs that make you appreciate your taste buds....

Everything here is so yummy!! Owner Ellen and Louie are gems!!

I had a red velvet cupcake over 10 years ago and still have not had a better one since.

The food is good, but the staff makes it so unwelcoming to enter and order. They’re extremely slow always making me late to wherever I need to go. The point of a take out bakery is the quick and effective process of getting food, not standing there for 15 minutes before someone even notices you. The workers lack the ability to multi task or greet customers. Horrible the way I was treated and disregarded, this place needs to focus more on kindness and an appropriate work ethic NOT decorating, walking around ignoring customers and talking with their coworkers/friends.

The food at this bakery might be good, but the customer experience left a lot to be desired. I waited over 40 minutes just to buy a pie that was already sitting in the refrigerator, ready to go. When I asked if I could simply pay for it, I was told I had to wait in line behind over 12 people ordering breakfast and coffee, which needed to be prepared first. While the staff seemed overwhelmed and could have used more help, the lack of a system to handle quick purchases was frustrating and disappointing. I would not recommend this bakery, as the negative overall experience far overshadowed any potential enjoyment of the food.

A little disappointed that we ordered hot coffee and were given iced. Got sandwiches on bagels and both came out on regular rolls. We decided not to say anything because the girls working were working super hard and were busy. All the food was still good so we were happy about that, but would have liked to try what we actually ordered.

Big tasty sandwiches made with a variety of bread. Most American sandwich place we found in 3 days in the Hudson Valley. Delicious and filling. Friendly, helpful staff.

EDIT: from 4 to 2 stars- Unfortunately, this place has really gone down hill. The bagels are always dry, and the challah has consistently been burnt every time. I tried door dashing from them for the first time and it came in a small brown bag with the baked goods sticking out of it- not stapled shut or anything. It didn’t even surprise me because there has been a lack of attention at The Bakery over the past few months, and it’s only gotten worse. The atmosphere is nice, but it doesn’t really outweigh the bad parts- I won’t be as frequent unfortunately, but I will definitely continue to give it a shot and support and update the review if it gets better. OLD REVIEW: A really great place to come in the morning before work. I’ve only had the baked goods, but they’re all great. The bagels, for me, are the perfect size and they taste really good! The only reason it’s lost one star is because it’s just a little expensive. $8 for a bagel with cream cheese and a latte (both delicious), and the croissants are like $3.50 each. *however* all the other cafes in NP are the same, so maybe there’s an external factor I’m just unaware of that makes it pricey. My main issue is that there is never any challah anymore… I would come every weekend to a boat load of loaves and pick the best and buy it and share with friends- now even in the mornings, there is MAYBE one loaf. I believe they make it on Fridays, but they used to on Saturday too if I’m not mistaken- regardless, I hardly see it anymore. As a Jewish man, I’m really hoping the new ownership cares for the Jewish community in the way the last owners did. Maybe I just happen to always come right before they put new loaves out, but just figured I’d note this. Final note- it’s not wheelchair accessible. Yes, you can get in the building on a wheelchair, but during cold months there is no where to sit downstairs- and no elevator. Similar with some other reviews I’ve seen, the bakery is amazing and has potential to be perfect, just with a few minor improvements :)

This is one of my favorite places, ever. It's tucked away like a hidden gem for locals with outdoor seating and a loft over the bakery area with indoor seating and a play area for kids. It's one of the only places I can go to eat out with my child and actually relax!!!!! There's a wide variety of foods, not just baked goods but breakfast and lunch sandwiches as well as hot and cold coffees, teas, espresso drinks, and brand drinks for the picky ones (like bottled juice, seltzer, etc.) I appreciate they celebrate and bake for all different holidays. When I've ordered cakes the bakers have done amazing work. I FREAKING LOVE THIS PLACE

Nice little spot to stop for a coffee and danish. Update 9-6-21 Stopped for coffee and a sandwich, had the roast beef panini. While the taste was good, unfortunately the bread was not cooked long enough and was soggy. A panini should crunch somewhat when you bite it.

Great place with high-quality ingredients, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere — plus it’s pet-friendly on the lovely outside terrace! We stopped by on our way to the Catskills and enjoyed the avocado toast with an egg and their Healthy wholegrains bread — both were delicious, especially the bread. We also ordered a slice of chocolate pound cake, but unfortunately, it was missing from our shopping bag when we got home. Not sure what happened, but everyone was very kind, especially the tall lady tending to the flowers outside. The whole place feels clean, fresh, and brand new. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re passing through!

Stopped in for coffee originally but decided to grab something to eat. Who knew something as simple as an egg and cheese sandwich which smashed avocado could be so incredible? I will be going back again before we head back home from this trip. Also, unrelated really, but I loved the colorful tiles in the bathroom.

Really nice coffee snack place. Pizza in the next building. Facilities were very new modern and well kept. Plenty of outdoor seating and pet friendly. The poppyseed cake was really good.

Stopped in to see what they had and grabbed a loaf of sesame sourdough, carrot cake, and a chocolate chunk cookie. Desserts were delicious, crust of the bread was a bit overdone which made it tough but the flavor was great. Going to stop back and try a different type before we leave.

This place is amazing, I wasn’t expecting it. Its on the way and around is nothing, You can eat and enjoy in this place Outside and inside everything is clean and beautiful Food is also highly recommended

Loved the ambience and will definitely be back. Went here after camping in the area. Delightful service. Everyone seemed to be in a good mood there. Two things though…. We got a breakfast burrito and a lemon poppy seed pound cake. The pound cake was dry and our lunch order was wrong (burrito, was good though). They did give us two slices of pound cake because the worker thought they were cut too slim. And the burrito was good. It took a bit long for our burrito though…It was also packed up but we said it was for dining in. Coffee was good. We sat outside and really enjoyed the outdoor seating. I’ll be back from the pleasant workers and ambience though.

Absolutely amazing high end bakery just off the road in Boiceville. Bread and pastry options were diverse, tasty, and fresh. The made to order options like scrumptious. Grab and go was pricey but local-oriented and tasty

This place was excellent! I went in to get some macarons and he threw in free donuts for us. On top of that, when we didn't know he only took cash, and so we didn't have quite enough, he just took the cash we had and said it was fine despite us being short. Great service and nice interior, and the macaroons and donuts were excellent! The owner is so kind and this is the kind of small, local business that deserves support. I highly recommend visiting here, and I will definitely be back myself.

The flakiest apple turnover, and the fluffiest sticky bun! Neither was too heavy or too sweet… just right! And both tasted as if they were made from the highest quality ingredients. Antoine was very friendly and helpful, and his description of his cheesecake was spot on — so light and delicate, not heavy and sticky. Still thinking about that sticky bun two days after wolfing it down. 😋

5 star dreamy pastry shoppe! We had truly the most delectable and superb wedding cake, made by ours truly, the French pastry chef. This was a true work of art, as well as being sooooo delicious. Marizpan, almond butter, coffee liqueur, and moist sponge wedding cake. What a great choice for a pastry chef! Bravo!

Antoine, the owner and chef, is truly an artist. His pastries and cakes are second to none. He is passionate about his product and the results are incredible. You can tell that he uses the highest quality ingredients in his pastries and cakes. My wife said it was the best bakery she has ever been to and I would absolutely have to agree. If you are in Windham, or somewhere nearby, do not miss the opportunity to treat yourself to this hidden gem in WIndham!

A quick kudos to the owner. I left a message about a birthday cake order yesterday. Although the timing didn't work out, he was professional and responsive. He called to let me know that it wouldn't work and I sincerely appreciated his time. Support the small businesses in your community. They work hard.

Lovely authentic French bakery with daily fresh pastries. Everything is delicious. I highly recommend you come earlier in the day, half an hour past opening.

This place is as if a patisserie from France was transplanted into Windham, including the wonderful owner and baker Antoine. Everything we’ve had from here was incredible.

Great bakery. Hits the spot when you have a pastry craving. So far we tried cannollis, cheese danish and the best was chocolate croissant 🎂

We used Cake Box for our wedding cake and I couldn't have been happier. Ginger was very easy to work with and very responsive by email and phone. Most importantly the cake was delicious!

They made a beautiful and delicious cake for my graduation party! They did everything we asked and the service we received while ordering it was amazing! Totally recommend!

Who the heck gave this place a good review? I walk in the lady in the back gives me a dirty look. The egg sandwich was microwaved. The cream puff was stale. I will say the coffee was good but not hot! The coffee is stored in a coffee thermos that doesn't keep the coffee that hot. The cinnamon roll had very little cinnamon but was fresh. Overall was not impressed won't stop back unless it's early for a hot cup of coffee.

This is the best place to order a special cake. Any time there is a special occasion, I order a cake from The Cake Box. Everyone always raves about them! It's so much better than the big box store cakes! They also have great pastries, bread, rolls, and coffee cakes!

Last Saturday my wife placed an order for an Almond ring to be picked up the following Sunday morning. Luckily she had… there were none left in the showcase when my wife picked up my almond ring. While she was there picking up the almond ring she also picked up a quarter pound of lace cookies. When my wife got home I immediately cut a piece of almond ring and enjoyed the wonderful pastry! It was delicious! Now the sad part of my story… My dog, a German Shorthair Pointer, thought it looked delicious too! While my wife and I stepped out of the house for a few minutes, my dog devoured the incredibly delicious almond ring and then made a dessert of the lace cookies! I never got to taste the cookies this time! I have had them in the past and they have always been delicious. The only thing that made me madder than my dog eating my pastries was that, after eating the entire Almond ring and the quarter pound of cookies, my dog had the audacity not to get sick! But that speaks volumes for the quality of the products you get at the Cake Box. I will be ordering an Almond ring soon - and this time making sure my dog won’t be partaking in it!

I absolutely love this bakery, stumbled upon it when I was looking for a baked good for one of my coworkers and oh my God. Cupcakes totally blew my socks off, chocolate mousse is the best. And really good price.
