    Maple glaze and apple cider
    Chalita P.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mostly a drive thru spot but there are a few seats on the patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When I stopped by there were only two people working inside so service was slow. If a car places a large order then you're going to have to wait even if you order in person. As for the donuts itself, it would've tasted better if it was fresh out of the oven warm but overall I still enjoyed it. Taking a bite I can appreciate that there's still an outer crunch and it wasn't dry at all. Flavor was good. I would give the maple glaze an edge over their apple cider donut in my opinion.

    On a roadtrip we were craving apple cider donuts which aren't "in season" currently. We were happy to find this little shop. The donuts were super fresh and didn't disappoint. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They offer a walk up window with patio seating and Mountain Views or a drive thru window.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If in the area this is a must stop for coffee or sweet treat.

    The chocolate donut was good -- 8.5/10. The maple donut was a 7/10; it was a bit too sweet for me. Come early if you want to try their famous apple cider donut. The coffee was also good -- I ordered a 12oz hot local maple latte, and it was delicious. I would definitely come back.

    The donuts are fried, then dipped into icings and toppings. I can see why many people love them; I can also see why some people would hate them. They aren't like most donuts.

    Stopped by to get fresh donuts on our way to hunter mountain. We got the glazed donut and sugared donut, both were amazing

    Half dozen - chocolate glazed, maple glazed, and classic glazed

    Great local donut shop. Donuts were fresh, dough has perfect density and fluffiness. Added bonus that their coffee was great and service was super friendly. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

    I think we were the official first customers. Staff was nice, kitchen looks clean. We had the maple frosted with and without bacon, and chocolate frosted donuts. Tasty treat with our coffee. This would be a nice stop before or after skiing Hunter Mountain.

It wasn't too busy when we arrived in middle of the afternoon, and we were warmly greeted. You place your order at the counter and then seat yourself. Water and cups are out too. I went with the Pad Thai ($27 with chicken) and also got to try some of the fried chicken ($17), a special. Prices seemed a little high but the dishes were delicious, with portions being reasonable and the Pad Thai not being overwhelmingly sweet. The fried chicken was magically crunchy outside and moist inside, with an irresistible dipping sauce not too cilantro-y. The Windham Local has a parking lot off to the side, but there was ample street parking too. And a shop proprietor later told us that The Windham Local is her place to eat in town!

Coffees were delicious and strong and the breakfast burrito was truly the best breakfast burrito I think I've ever had. The space is so cute.

We stopped in early and had our choice of tables. The space is big, clean and perfectly calm. Great spot for a slow breakfast. After ordering at the counter, they brought everything over to our table. I got the oatmeal bowl. Delicious and simple. However, I couldn't help but steal many many bites of the breakfast burrito. Seriously, get it! A great spot with good food, a friendly team and a cozy vibe.

Gracie's is an elevated diner experience...all the breakfast and brunch things you could want, but up a couple levels from a classic greasy spoon diner.

Yes, they make their own donuts here, and that's enough reason to stop in, take out, or worship at the front door. We got our donuts to go after the meal...The coffee was GREAT. Too often, coffee, which should be the opening star of a diner experience, can be flavorless, browned water. Here it was good. Bold as I needed it to be, and the perfect foundation for the rest of the meal. My next go-to if they have it brunch experience is biscuits. They have them...you can get a biscuit on its own or, heck, go for a mini biscuit basket! I live for a biscuit-forward establishment. The Full Breakfast (submitting biscuit or potatoes for the meat) would have been my choice, but I decided to roll my own and ended up with a biscuit, fruit cup, and side of Hash Browns. The biscuit was good, large, and perfect with butter and honey. They make the hash browns to order - large hash brown patties - and with 2 different orders of them at the table, one was overcooked, too brown, and not impressive...but the other was perfect and delicious...bordering on potato pancake territory in presentation and flavor. Our server was fantastic...we had a large party encompassing 3 different tables in the middle of a Sunday morning (On Easter no less), which is, of course, the busiest time of the week. She was friendly, enthusiastic, and never made us feel rushed. If I found myself in the Hudson Valley again, Gracie's would be a definite destination for me.

The food was average. No complaints. My Waldorf salad was very plentiful. I took the remaining portion home. Customer Service was pretty good. The luncheonette has plenty of parking.

I bought a couple glazed donuts to make up for the horrible pastry and donuts that I had this week from elsewhere. I'm so glad I did because they were fresh made and moist and the glaze was still wet! If nothing else they made was good, I would go back just for the glazed donuts! But everything is great so let's keep chatting! I originally decided to drive there to get the cinnamon bread that I remember as a kid. Unfortunately they were sold out. But they did have what they called Easter bread, which is s rich egg loaf, similar to Challah with red and golden raisins in it and the dough is lemon flavored. I bought a loaf of that and brought it home and made epic French toast with it! I highly suggest you do the same! I also tried their spinach pastry and "pizza" pastry, delicious! All the dough here just melts in your mouth without leaving a leathery film on your tongue which means it's real pastry made with butter!

Once, on our way out of the city for our Upstate getaway then a second time heading back home. The flavors were unreal. Even something as pedestrian as a strawberry sprinkles donut tasted award-winning. This was one of my favorite bites, and that's surprising coming from someone who really orders it. In fact, the last time I got that donut was probably when I was a child. Unlike most shops, the frosting was, indeed, strawberry flavored and not just some bullshit icing with pink dye. They also offered novel combinations, like coconut lychee and a pecan donut that had the most complex profile: sweet, smokey, with a slight funk. I've never tasted anything like it. The flavors strangely worked well together. The brown butter donut was the pièce de résistance. It was wonderfully sweet and salty, reminiscent of a butterscotch square. I felt greedy, wanting to buy a box to take home. I didn't, and now I wonder - did I make a mistake? Should I have listened to my basest desires? Might Donuts gave me something to long for.

I had the garden salad sandwich on farm bread. The avocado wasn't the freshest and there was only one tiny piece of tomato - this will probably be a good sandwich in peak summer. The sandwiches came with chips and salsa. The store made mango salsa is delicious. Locally made root beer in a bottle was delicious and unique. The baked goods were quite pricey (almost $9 for a small square of raspberry bread). The bathrooms are on the otherwise by the kids toys.
