I ordered a BLT with no sides on a pumpernickel roll to go. Twenty minutes later, I had to ask for my sandwich of bacon lettuce and tomato so I didn't miss my bus and they used the wrong bread. If you're hungry, just wait. read more

I attended a business meeting here. I didn't know that they had a catering hall for events. The staff was very friendly. All the food was delicious. I really liked the veggie soup. It had really good flavor. The breakfast breads were very good. Especially the croissants. Dessert was delicious. I will be returning with my family soon. read more

Review is for the bakery. This little place seems to be quite popular, so much so that they don't give you drinks to go. Do drinks really cost you that much per refill? That you can refill in-house but not give out to-go cups? Minus one star for cheapness. I filtered through the amazing-looking baked goods and selected a few. The chocolate bomb is more of a chocolate hill - it's full of mousse but nothing daringly dark or decadent, just a good solid chocolate... hill. Really. It's 4 stars but not 5. I threw in a pretzel stick because it was breakfast time so I had to be healthy. 4 stars also - I like that it wasn't particularly salty, but a 5 star pretzel stick needs to be crunchy outside and soft inside, and this was more of an elongated pretzel roll. Very good, but not "wow". And then the beehive cake... very cakey. The frosted filling was nice, but the honey-coated nuts on top were a little too thinly spread to add enough flavor and texture to offset the cakeyness. Overall it was 3.5 stars... I guess? I ate most of it, so it was definitely good. The waitstaff are nice, but the space is just awkward. There are a lot of rooms and corners and hidden alcoves so that it doesn't feel like a restaurant, more of a neighborhood store that grew and swallowed up adjacent buildings over time but never paused to think about it. And everyone has to go up and pay at the counter. Sorta like a diner, except diners usually have the courtesy to give you to-go cups. Actually, diners also have all their baked goods on display, so this is mostly like a diner. I checked the menu and it's expansive and diner-like. Verdict: Grudging. I want to dock more points for the weirdness of the place and its policies, but I guess I could also say that it gives it character. Nothing was 5 stars here, but nothing was really 3 stars either. It's good, and I'd return for a proper breakfast at some point. read more

The baked goods are fabulous! I love the turnovers, donuts and so much more! my only complaint is that they put many treats in plastic bags. the problem with that is if it has icing on it, the icing sticks to the bag :( maybe they can come up with a better idea. Otherwise I really do enjoys the treats. P.S. please bring back the peanut butter bran muffins!!! read more

Deising's helped design a cake for me that met and surpassed all my expectations. I had some very specific requests on this piece of artistry and their staff worked with me every step of the way. The results were priceless. read more

I am so incredibly disappointed to have to write this review. We got our wedding cake from this bakery and when we went in for the tasting, everything was absolutely amazing (which is why we went with them). The service was great, the samples were great, and the problem became narrowing down the things we liked into a single cake, rather than finding things that appealed to us. Unfortunately, the cake order was wrong; they put incorrect fillings in two of three layers. I know it sucks that they only get one shot at perfection, but that's the nature of the wedding cake business, and they blew it. Further, the roses--the only detail we wanted, mind you--were supposed to be burgundy, which apparently to someone's mind meant "really dark brown"--which I wouldn't mind, except that the concentration of dye that was used left them downright bitter-tasting. Plus, seriously, explain this to me: If a third party (in this case, the bride's mother) is handling the cake, has done all the communication with the restaurant throughout the process, has put down her deposit and already scheduled an appointment to come in on the afternoon of the Monday before the wedding to approve the final plans and pay the bill, what on earth would possess someone to call the bride at 8am that Monday and leave a voicemail saying only, "A payment in the amount of [considerable] is still due. Please call" instead of doing literally ANYTHING else? read more

Prices have gone through the roof. One egg sandwich with cheese and a cup of coffee was over $8.00. Absolutely outrageous and nothing special about it! The place has nerve enough to shit in church and then ring the bell for paper. The same deal can be had for slightly over $4.00 at a local diner! read more

Dining areas extend pretty much everywhere. Food is solid, diner type breakfast and (I believe) lunch. Reasonable prices. The pancakes are the size of dinner plates, I should've ordered one!! So then we decided we HAD to get some pastries, since we were there! I feel like those prices were reasonable too- a 5 pack of their cider donuts (so delicious!) and a loaf of pumpernickel bread for a little over $5! I really liked what a tight ship they run - lots of waitresses, no empty coffee cups or water glasses. Lots of ladies behind the counter to wrap up your breads and goodies. Did I mention that they were collecting money to donate to a LOCAL hospital for breast cancer research and care? And we're having an employee costume contest? And had cute skeletons reading the paper at one of the tables? I like the atmosphere here. They don't make places like this anymore! Can't wait to go back. read more

We were in town for the weekend and saw this place when passing by so decided to go for breakfast the next morning! It was so good we came again the day after. Not usually our style as we like to try different places when traveling but the food was so good we had to come back. We had the same waitress on both days, she was super friendly and attentive, topping up waters and coffees even though it was super busy. Food was quick and tasty can't ask for much more at breakfast time! If back in the area will definitely be trying the bakery section as it looked amazing! read more

Best cake we've ever seen! I explained to the bakery my idea and they over delivered! Everyone was blown away by the design of the cake. To make things even better it was one of the best tasting cakes! $45 for a custom cake, can't argue with that! THANK You!!! read more

Deising's Bakery - Custom birthday cake - Bakeries Near Me - Kingston, New York

I purchased $30 of baked goods this morning. The bag I was given, filled with 5 bagels and 2 rolls tore going to my car and fell to the ground. Went back in and asked for a replacement for 3 of the items that fell out onto the parking lot. I was told they couldn't do that. I offered to pay difference of what was lost to other similar items. Was told they couldn't do that either. The only solution, I was to repurchase what I lost and pay full price. The young lady said "There policy is, once you walk out the door it's not their responsibility as to what happens." Very POOR customer service. read more

Wow, fabulous! We visit the area almost every year and always have breakfast at Deising's. Their waffles are marvelous as is everything else. Service is excellent and prices are quite reasonable. read more

We were lucky enough to have ridden the Polar Express in Kingston. As part of our experience, Deising's Bakery Chocolate Chip cookies were included in our ride and Yum Yum Yum! They are super crispy and buttery with just enough sweetness and chocolate chips. I prefer the smaller chips vs the big chunks (unless its a huge cookie). Super Yummy! read more

The baked goods are great but I highly recommend getting a full breakfast too. I had the best quiche I've probably ever eaten here -- buttery, flaky crust, delicious savory filling. The hashbrowns were the perfect accompaniment, just a little crispy (exactly how I like them). Good reviews for the fresh fruit bowl too, which came with strawberries, cantaloupe, and banana. The staff was very attentive too and didn't let my coffee run out. read more

Oh, service, why does thee suck to such epic proportions? We were seated by an older woman who really didn't want us to have a booth, even though it wasn't busy, but doggone it, I fought for it ... and my ass was in an uncomfortable wood booth with my partner for a late lunch. (restaurant barely had customers) Then our waitress took about 10 minutes to show up, apologized, took our drink order, and disappeared again. This was the entire meals. Veggie fajitas were okay. Veggie panina was so so. I was most excited to go to the bakery. That's when I met Maria. Here's a tip: If you have about 50 cookies in the case, have a little sign (I don't even care if you hand write it) on each one because I have no idea what you're selling and I really wanted to buy it. When we asked Maria if there was a list, otherwise we'd be asking her one by one, she said, "I have a list, just ask." So, we proceeded to do what we were avoiding. Us: "What's this?" Maria: "A cookie." (um, yeah, we kind of figured that out, but plowed ahead) Us: "No, what type?" (since so many were covered in chocolate, but different) Maria: "Chocolate." Us: "Can you give us the name of the cookies?" Maria: (now looking at list) "No, not really." This went on for quite some time until Maria said she could give samples of each one we wanted. I said, "No, thank you. We picked out six, went to the part of the bakery that was labeled, bought a lava cake, cinnamon bread (I think because Maria just said it was cinnamon and I still haven't tried it), then we paid our bill and left. I've tried the baked goods and one cookie (I couldn't possibly give you a name besides what I would refer to as white and milk chocolate madeline) was pretty good. The rest was okay. We won't be back because of the service and there's a lot of other things to see in our travels, but get those cookies labeled, give Maria a break. (One last note. Apparently, you have a raspberry cookie and when we asked Maria if the inside were dry or chewy or jellied, Maria said, "Cherry." Maria, you kind of made our day and honestly, get the list you had on the front of the case. Also, you packed the lava cake upside down, but after our encounter, I feel like for you, it was as it should be so I wish you joy.) read more

Their strawberry shortcake is THE BEST EVER! We love it so much we had multiples at our wedding. They're very courteous and friendly there, and the other desserts are great, too. Highly recommend! read more

Outstanding! The selection at Deising's is remarkable. The glazed croissant twist is truly memorable. Try it--you'll be hooked, too!

My second time here in a long time, not much has changed. Staff openly and loudly talks about "literally" drinking an entire bottle of boos the night before ... Not something I'd like for my kids to hear and it just makes it seem like they don't want to be there.. read more

Great casual atmosphere, Breakfast was super cheap, and tasty. Great service and clean space

This is my absolute best bakery stop in Kingston! The donuts are heavenly fluffy pockets stuffed with jelly! The Apple strudel is jam packed with apples, the seven layer cake is also a favorite. Let's not forget the breads-- OMG!!! I love eatting with all the cuckoo clocks in the dining room. read more

Bakery items are great. The restaurant part of the place, not do much. Waitresses are nice but service very slow. Food meh. Unless you order a bakery item, then it's very good. read more

Too sweet too sweet too sweet too sweet too sweet so sweet so sweet. They use much too much sugar in their products. You don't have to make things sweet to make them taste good. read more

I needed this specific cake for a surprise party at a local resort. The bakery worked with me and delivered it to the hotel directly! They were very accommodating and the cake came out great! read more

This is the real-deal old school bakery that has gone extinct in most towns across the Northeast, due to preferable "store bought." Kick the store bought to the curb and come to this gem nestled in the Catskill city of Kingston's Uptown area. Everything is delicious: the breads, the pastries, the cakes, cookies, breakfast, lunch....you name it, it's really good. Christmas time, or any holiday really, is special. They celebrate them all! read more

Omg. Where do I start? I only live 45 minutes from here and today was my first visit. I had soup and quiche. Both delicious! The bakery was amazing!!! Their bread was an eyes rolling to the back of your head experience. We got a marble rye and we couldn't wait to go home and toast it. AMAZING!! Only $5.25 for the most delicious bread. They make a cheese coffee cake. It's at least 12 inches round and only $8.50. DELICIOUS!!! It's so worth the extra drive to go into downtown Kingston for your baked goods. read more

NOT a cool place. Took our disabled cousin there for breakfast late one Saturday morning. He traveled a great distance and we wanted breakfast. They told us we had to wait for a table. We did - 45 minutes. Once seated they told us breakfast was no longer being served. Can anyone say diner??? I suggest Stadium Diner right around the corner where the service is prompt, friendly and 24 hours! read more

Service is extremely slooooow. We ordered basic premade bakery food (bagels, rolls, and a quiche) and it took over 40 minutes to get our meal. We had coffee refilled 3x before the food came out. I also ordered the filled french toast and it was overly saturated with sweet cream cheese making it unedible. I couldn't eat it. The waitress was nowhere to be found during our meal. The tables that arrived after us were served whole meals before us (bacon and omelets). When the waitress finally appeared I mentioned the French Toast was too sweet and I could not eat it. She asked if I wanted it to go. I said no its too sweet and I cannot eat it. She said that's how it's made and maybe I shouldn't order it next time. I ended up asking for the manager. She took it off the bill and apologized. I would not recommend or return. read more

Tried to have breakfast there last week, like I said tried. I was seated and given a menu than sat for ten minutes before the bus persons, not waitress asked if I wanted coffee. Another ten minutes passed while two waitress chatted nearby. Mind you not busy at all. I tried to flag / wave to one of the waitress and was ignored after she looked at me. Waited five more minutes and got up and went to Hostess and said I had been waiting 25 min and no service.... She said OK and nothing else so I left. It was not a flute as the last time we went it took 30 minutes on a slow weekday to breakfast served. never again. read more

Bought 6 cupcakes at the Gardiner cupcake festival and they were just eh. Very expensive for what they were I think $25, ridiculous. They tasted like 5 day old cupcakes made from box cake mix I could've made at home, not dense, homemade gourmet like you'd expect for the price. read more

I heard great things about this bakery from a clerk at the hotel where we were staying. I am glad we checked it out! The bagel sandwiches are incredible! Fresh, tasty, eggs cooked just right, bacon was crispy. The staff was friendly and efficient. Plenty of lot parking available. read more

I eat here frequently because I live so close. Usually the food is good. The service is S L O WWWWwwwwwww. (I'm updating. This review as the service is getting faster!!) good work Deisings! Last week I had a brocolli omlette. They put the ends of the broccoli and the fibrous stems in it. I had to keep spitting them out. It was horrible!!! That was disappointing... usually the food is good and fresh :( read more

The menu says ＄ 5.75 two egg any style, but when we choose scrambled eggs, they will charge 75cent. This is weird read more

I grew up with this place. I live away from Kingston now but the first place I venture to when I come back is here. I love it. We stopped here today to pick my beloved raisin pumpernickel bread and their seeded rye bread. I also got a chocolate dipped macaroon for myself. Picture eating a Mound bar and it tastes 100 times better. Thank you Deising's! read more

Deising's is the best bakery in Kingston hands down. The location Uptown on North Front St is superior to the one in Midtown on Broadway. There's always a better selection Uptown and the staff is far superior. The hard rolls, black/white cookies and chocolate croissants are all family favorites. Deising's also makes really good breakfasts in their sit down dining room. read more

We stopped here for Breakfast on a Sunday on our way for a Hiking trip in the Catskills. The place is very nice, great ambiance, friendly staff, were seated right away and the food was quite good too. The service was a bit slow for the no.s of customers to staff ratio,but I would go here again. read more

An excellent breakfast on the way back from Vermont. The eggs were cooked perfectly over-medium. The mound (mountain perhaps!) of bacon was done extra crispy just like I asked and the multi-grain toast was perfect. The server was super friendly and when she forgot what kind of toast my husband had asked for, she just brought him a set of white and a set of multi-grain which allowed me to have extra toast. I will definitely go back for breakfast if I am ever in Kingston again at breakfast time. read more

Oh dear! There must be a chocolate shortage at Deisings. We have been buying their holiday cookies every year for 16 years. This year, the selection on the large platter was very disappointing. It was mostly plain cookies with very few chocolate and little variety. Buying holiday cookies from Deisings will no longer be part of our tradition. read more

The pumpkin pie really packs a punch. Like a taste of heaven. Oh it was so good I zoned out and pictured an episode of my strange addiction about me 3 months from now. 5 Star pie read more

Haven't eaten here for any meals, but my employer always gets cakes here whenever anyone at work has a birthday. The cakes are excellent. The chocolate bomb cake is especially fantastic. They also have a "food" printer, so they can print edible copies of your photos on your cake. When you're there, check out the "poop pile" in their glass case. It's a "pile" of chocolate mousse type cake with plastic flies and pretend toilet paper stuck on it. Gross, but I bet it would be a big hit at a young boy's birthday party! read more

Deising's Bakery - Mini Poop Pile - cute but disgusting idea! (well, disgusting for grownups) - Bakeries Near Me - Kingston, New York

We went here for lunch and had a terrible waiter. He didn't bring things that were supposed to be included in meals. He also neglected to notice we needed drink refills, and just disappeared for long stretches of time. Lunch took two hours as a result. The food: Okay, with the exception of bakery products, which were amazing. Next time I'll get a bagel at the bakery and call it good. read more
