The reviews are not exaggerating. This is the actual best bakery I've ever been to. We arrived…read morethere like 5 minutes before they closed, and everything looked great so I wound up buying two giant sea salt/chocolate chip cookies, a kitchen sink cookie, a sprinkle cookie, and a small yellow/vanilla cake with chocolate frosting. I regret not taking better photos, but at least I got a quick shot of the delightful cake. It was all absurdly good. I can't get over how fluffy the frosting is and how perfect the cookie textures are. The woman working was also really nice and, despite it being the end of the day, I didn't feel at all rushed or like she just wanted to close up. Here's how much we loved it: My husband and I went there yesterday while on a weekend trip. Today, we had to get back home fast to beat the snowstorm, and we seriously considered just risking it and driving out of our way to go back here. We didn't (safety first, etc) but we've decided to order our wedding cake from this place *and* our wedding favors. Seriously, everyone should go to this place. Everyone deserves this magic in their lives!

We were in Woodstock for two breakfasts and ate here both times. I'll let that be a testament to…read morehow good everything was. There is also a consistent line out the door, for more proof. The case is stuffed with an endless amount of breakfast pastries. Plus there's a full cafe menu, a fridge stocked with prepared sandwiches and salads, and tons of goodies to take home like loaves of bread and sleeves of cookies. What I tried: -A bagel with cream cheese, cukes and roasted tomatoes. Simple and delicious, and of course the bagel was fluffy perfection. - A cold sandwich from the case. This was French style with buttered bread, salami, cheese, mustard and cornichons. Every bite was better than the next! -A sourdough loaf to take home. The loaf was so big that I needed to freeze half. You definitely get your moneys worth. + Oatmeal cookies. Soft, chewy and delish. My husband tried some of the more hearty sandwiches, and the grilled cheese looked wildly rich and decadent. Coffee is decent, not amazing but gets the job done. You are here for the bread!

The Garden Cafe is a favorite that we wish we could visit more often. It is an unparalleled spot…read morefor vegan comfort food. Their menu is extensive and impressive; they have some all-star dishes on their permanent menu as well as a rotating daily menu with a legendary lineup of seasonal items. I really appreciate that they have dishes that are hard to come by such as lentil loaf and lasagna, and these never disappoint. The lentil loaf is unique; it is a little brick of lentils (not your traditional sliceable mush of breadcrumbs and minced veggies). It's very well seasoned and the tomato sauce on top is not overly sweet. The mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy and (very) garlicky greens make it a great meal. The lasagna is one of my favorite dishes. It's pasta-free and just made from layers of sliced zucchini and other veggies sandwiched with their delicious crumbly housemade cashew cheese. The herby tomato sauce is super flavorful. The side salad and garlic bread that accompany it are great also; an ultra comforting meal. We enjoyed the macro meal, although honestly not as much as the other dishes. The pan-seared tofu was delicious, but the arame seaweed salad was super seaweedy and salty - a bit much for me. I'm also not sure why they didn't serve it in a bowl, which would have made the rice etc. easier to eat. It seemed to be missing something - perhaps avocado, or a hunk of sweet potato. A few items at the Garden Cafe are a little perplexing, compared to how perfect most of their food is. The tempeh is just ok. It's heavily marinated in a sweet and salty sauce and kind of strange. Also disappointing that it's just a big brand tempeh rather than one of the local tempeh brands available in the area. The housemade focaccia is also bizarre. The texture made me think it was gluten-free (but it's not). Is it whole wheat?? If that's the case, awesome, but they should mention that on the menu, so you aren't taken aback when you don't get pillowy airy bread and instead get something flat and gray that could be mistaken for a biscotti. We LOVE the Garden Cafe and wish more places like this existed serving organic classic meals. We wish they would open a location in New York City, but until then, we will be making the drive!

Bakery items are my one of my many weaknesses in life. They are splendid. Everything tastes perfectly delicious and fresh. The pies, the cookies, the muffins, it is all something that makes me wish these folks were in New York City. Then again maybe not because my weight would balloon because of them. This is how good everything I got tasted. This is how you know you have the makings of an amazing bakery. No Linzer tart? No problem. No Hamantashen? No worries. I will be okay without these items here. I truly am going to be excited when their tent rolls back up here soon.

Why would anyone buy your crap when NYC has the best bakeries, possibly in the whole country? GrowNYC: it's time to find a new vendor. New Yorkers are sick of these subpar baked goods at EVERY farmer's market. Get lost, Meredith!

Janet was meticulous in asking us about all of our daughters allergies and preferences for taste and products. She also gave us several suggestions for how she could get it to look and stay true to my daughters request. She worked a miracle. Not only that, she made arrangements for us to be able to pick it up when she was going to be out of town. That is a true professional! My daughter absolutely love the cake to the point they drove 40 miles out-of-the-way to come by our house and pick up what was left of it after their honeymoon. She wanted to eat it all by herself! Kudos to Bearsville Baker's for being a bride's best friend. Thanks again Janet and Lisa!
