They know their merchandise and were a pleasure to talk to!! So were their amazing baked goods! I bought some chicken empanadas which were spectacular! Not to mention the wonderful gigantic soft pretzel! I also bought a regular chocolate brownie, the cheesecake brownie and a frosted cookie. Never a disappointment! That's why I always rate it as one of Westchester's Best Bakeries!

Neither of us were impressed with or selections and my empanada tasted like it's been sitting in the refrigerator for a very long time. It had that stale refrigerator taste. I am willing to give them another try. Maybe they were just off that day.

But I was delighted to find Hudson Oven on my way to work in Croton-on-Hudson, and even more delighted with their signature sourdough bread. It's delicious dipped in olive oil when just out of the oven, and is ideal for sandwiches and toast all week long. The crumb holds perfectly and while I'm not normally a fan of entirely whole-wheat bread, this is an exception as the bread is, well, exceptional. Looking forward to trying the wonderful-looking breakfast menu when I have time, but meanwhile, if you're looking for some awesome sourdough bread, run, don't walk, to the Hudson Oven!

While waiting for friends to pick me up, I grabbed a breakfast sandwich and two almond croissants to go. Both were great! And honestly, this might be one of the best reuses of a space I've seen. Instead of letting an old station sit around collecting dust, they turned it into something people actually want to spend time (and money) in. BB

Please go...NOW!…read more This place has figured it out. From the cookies, to the pastries, to coffee. This is your stop, it's inside the train depot in Tarrytown. The decor is it...truly. They truly did their due diligence with keeping the historic touches as focal points. The staff is mostly friendly. Just order your stuff and find a seat and ignore whatever is going on with the ones that are not. The food, coffee and ambience should be enough. If you are lucky enough to get there durning the holidays try the GINGERBREAD cookie, dip it in your coffee or tea or cocoa! Also, the star of the show is the apple turnover.

The bagels are crunchy on the outside and so soft on the inside. In addition to their sourdough, the French pastries are incredible. Their almond croissant is addictive! Not only is the food incredible, but the service is wonderful. The staff is friendly and helpful and the owner stops to talk and get to know patrons. The inside of the cafe has a lot of seating and they just opened an outdoors patio for summer. Highly recommend checking out Bella's for breakfast, lunch, a coffee or a special sweet treat. You won't be disappointed.

I was in Mt. Kisco and craving a good bagel, so after a quick Google search, I found this spot…read more They've since closed their downstairs storefront and now operate upstairs, mainly catering. The setup was easy enough to find, but the overall vibe felt a little limited. I ordered a sourdough bagel with cream cheese and a plain croissant. Both were okay -- fresh, toasted, and crispy (maybe a little too toasted). The croissant was huge, which was a nice surprise, but it wasn't buttered, which I definitely prefer. I also wish they had more bagel options available when I went, and I'm personally not a fan of applying my own cream cheese -- part of the bagel experience for me is having it done for you. It also seems like the only add-on option now is cream cheese, which is a little disappointing if you're hoping for a full sandwich or variety. On the plus side, there's parking right outside, which is always appreciated. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience, just not great either. I might give it another try someday, but it's not at the top of my list.

They have fresh pastries, sandwiches, and the best/strongest coffee I've ever had! There are a few tables here, so you could sit inside. Or, you can grab your food/drinks to go. The staff was very friendly and nice here. I am so glad I found this place. I can't wait to stop in again soon.

In fairness to them, English speaking bakeries do it too but in English. The staff speak some English making it a bit difficult to find out what it is or if you have allergies whether or not to avoid it. The staff is friendly. The prices are standard bakery prices. I had the conejo and Berlin crema which are the exact same thing but different presentation. I had the erizo which you need a fork to eat. I did not know that and it is like trying to eat chocolate cake with your hands (if you did not get the fork). The most memorable part was a male staffer that really did not want to work and wanted everyone to know it. He spent his time kissing his girlfriend, talking to her, and letting her touch his chest. I know he worked there because he went behind the counter when they were done but she stayed to talk to him over the counter.
