As always Elm Street Bakery was hopping with activity. It's a place that has both little ones and…read moreolder ones enjoying something irresistible. The food is worth the line to order it. I ordered a Chai Latte and then a box of baked goods and a baguette. The baguette was that perfect crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Then the Earl Grey Blueberry scone was just delicious. I also got orange pistachio scones and molasses cookies. They all freeze well so i usually buy two and freeze one. And finally the Chai Latte was just perfect. Not too sweet and no heartburn. I don't know why but sometimes that's a side effect of Chai. So not only is the food delicious but the people watching is worth the price of admission. A must try.

That's ESB, if you were to come here for a bills game, or Niagara Falls, or whatever else. This charming little bakery just hits all the right spots. The egg sammy's are down right delicious. Try the spicy aioli, not so much spice, but it pairs so well with it. Thick cut bacon and a brioche bun. C'mon now. The crème brule french toast is 2 large slabs of homemade bread, that just tastes so fresh. The line will probably be long, but that gives you time to decide on what pastry to grab in the array of treats. There's truly something for everyone, and it is all great. Also make sure to grab some of the house made sourdough, got the Italian loaf for garlic bread for dinner and it was terrific. Perfectly balanced with the light and airy inside with a crunchy undercarriage.

The toast was buttered with margarine, which made the toast really soggy and gross. The two stars come in because nothing states it's cash-only on the website or the door. Our lovely waitress did say that the owner's daughter-in-law would take Venmo on the weekends. Our issue was when we were trying to cash out; our waitress had to tell the daughter-in-law, Victoria, "Tory," several times we wanted to leave and were ready to cash out. This annoyed Victoria because she took her time socializing with other guests and taking orders from another table after we were ready to settle the bill. I made eye contact with her several times, and her pace never sped up. After 15 minutes of waiting for this smug lady to come to our table, she finally did. She just showed us her Venmo app and didn't bother apologizing for the excessive wait. Because of her sh!tty attitude, my sister and I will NOT be returning.

There are not enough stars possible for the amazing cookie dough cinnamon roll I had here!!!…read more I've been on a huge cinnamon roll kick lately, and I've been trying any ones that use real vanilla icing (ain't nobody got time for that cream cheese icing monstrosity, lol) that I can get my hand on. This amazing place is located at the end of a large strip center that also houses an Aldi and Mighty Taco. The all glass windows and doors give it plenty of light and very open feel - something that we haven't seen much in this area with the beautiful intricate architecture (to us Floridians anyway, lol). The first day we went it was fairly empty and they were nearing closing time. Despite this, the lady who helped us was friendly and informative. She explained they make regular cinnamon rolls and pastries but also have a specialty roll of the week, which was cookie dough this week. They were out of almost everything except some of the day old rolls - which included a cookie dough one. Where we live, specialty cinnamon rolls are filled with the typical cinnamon and just topped with specialty stuff, so I assumed I would get the cookie dough one and try both their cookie crumbles and their traditional cinnamon roll in one. Boy was I wrong. Having bought far too many desserts in the last few days of this visit, I put the cookie dough roll to the side a few days, but when I tried it - OMG!! The center of the roll is COOKIE DOUGH AND NOT CINNAMON. When I tell you this is one of the best desserts and food inventions I have ever seen, I MEAN IT!! Nevermind the crookie or cookie dough croissant craze, these people have created heaven in a dessert. Needless to say, I had to go back again today for another, as they close on Mondays and change their flavors on Tuesdays. A different person was there, but she was just as helpful. And they had just one last cookie dough roll, which of course I had to get. If you ever get the absolutely divine timing that I did and find yourself in the Hamburg, Buffalo, or Amherst (I know of these locations specifically, there may be others too), and they are running the cookie dough rolls, you HAVE TO try them!

It's been a while since I grabbed a treat from Kaylena Marie's. I'm glad to say they're as…read moredelicious today as they were the last time I stopped in, even after the various changes they've had! On a Saturday, around 11:45am, I arrived at the Hamburg bakery, the newest location of the small franchise. There was plenty of parking in the HUGE parking lot as the bakery is next to an ALDI. I walked into a large space with plenty of tables and a bar along the window with stools, reminiscent of Orchard Park's seating setup - It felt warm and inviting, plenty spacious, very easy to converse with others. It was great seeing quite a few tables filled with people sipping on coffee, pastries, sandwiches, etc.! They do have a pretty large menu of breakfast items and sandwiches along with plenty of drinks, which are listed on their menu located at the counter. Walking toward their case of goodies, I was a little surprised at the limited selection, albeit they were definitely the more popular treats. The gentleman who took my order was very friendly, fun to talk to as I placed my order. All in all, a great ordering experience and a spot I wouldn't mind sitting down and having breakfast in. So what did I order? Fall 2025, Kaylena Marie's re-introduced their "Specialty Rolls" with the big change being the size being "mini" compared to their normal cinnamon roll, which is HUGE. I'll be honest, I was a concerned the "mini" would be a tad too small, but, after ordering two, I say they are perfectly sized. For the week of 11/03/2025-11/09/2025, the Hamburg bakery's "Specialty Mini Roll" flavor was cookies and cream, dubbed the "Mini Oreo Roll", which is Kaylena Marie's roll swirled with crushed Oreo cookies, chocolate, and creamy filling then topped with more Oreo cookies and glaze. I ordered two, one for Saturday and one for Sunday. :) When the "Specialty Rolls" were giant (i.e. Kaylena's 'normal' size), this was my favorite flavor, so I was really happy when the first forkful brought me right back! The roll was as soft as I remember and the creamy inside with chocolate and Oreo cookie swirled in was excellent. The "mini" size was perfect, albeit I did have a little ice cream with it. :) But truth be told, the "mini" is the proper size for these specialty flavors. Also, stick it in the microwave for 20-25 seconds, thank me later! As for the price, in 2025, this was nicely priced, certainly not as pricey as I expected, which was another treat. Kaylena Marie's of Hamburg is an inviting bakery/café! The staff working are courteous and friendly and the treats are on-brand with the original idea of Kaylena Marie's. I will certainly be back for another batch of "Specialty Mini-Rolls" or perhaps a 'Normal' (aka GIANT) cinnamon roll for old time's sake. haha

We have been DREAMING about…read morethis place since we set the date a few weeks ago, so expectations were high and thankfully, this place delivered. We walked in knowing immediately that we were going to have to share. Last time she was here, she had the Six and confessed that she wasn't sure she could ever bring herself to order anything else. So, naturally, we had to get it. Mortadella, fig jam, banana peppers, ricotta, and arugula. I know. It sounds like someone opened the refrigerator and said, "Let's just see what happens." But somehow, those bold, strong flavors work SO well together. It was definitely a messy sandwich, but you know you're in good company when there's a giant stack of napkins between you and you're both laughing while trying to keep the fillings from escaping. I also knew we had to try the Noons. It's basically a focaccia-style pizza, which is exactly as wonderful as it sounds. This one didn't have a description on the menu, but staff said he's been calling it "Figgy Piggy." Figs, prosciutto, and caramelized onions. Buffalo friends, I'm telling you, you NEED to try this. And then came the bakery treats. We decided we needed three because apparently neither of us believes in moderation when pastries are involved. Later that night, I dove into my double chocolate cookie, and WOW. I was very impressed. I'm pretty sure they use some dark or bittersweet chocolate because it wasn't overly sweet. The chocolate flavor was rich and perfect, and the texture was chef's kiss. My friend had the strawberry shortbread, which she absolutely loved. She said it tasted like she was eating cheesecake in cookie form, and honestly, I don't think you could give a better description than that. So yes, I am officially inviting everyone in Buffalo to come here. They have some tables inside and a couple outside, making this the perfect spot for a lunch date, a catch-up with a friend, or simply making questionable decisions about how many pastries you "need."

When you first walk in, you'll notice all the huge and delicious looking pastries to your right!!! It's definitely true that we eat with our eyes first because I wanted one of everything but I finally decided on a Cannoli croissant. It is big enough to split between two people. It was soooo flaky and filled with such delicious filling. I also ordered the number nine sandwich which did not disappoint. I thought $17 was kinda pricey for a sandwich but it was delicious soooo whatever. It consisted of a chicken cutlet, arugula, tomato, and a yummy lemon aioli. It was big enough to split between two people. I'm dying to come back here again and try other things!! There's a little seating area upstairs as well as 2 tables outside. It is a great addition to this area of Buffalo.

Our little boys are starting school in a few weeks, so I had them brush up on their reading by studying the menu. Boy number one ordered a egg, bacon and cheese, breakfast sandwich, and an English muffin, with hashbrowns. His child eats like a man, so we were glad that the plate was large enough to satisfy his hunger. Boy # 2 ordered a chicken patty sandwich with a plate of french fries and a glass of chocolate milk. Connor the days when he would eat a child's portion and be satisfied. Both children raved about the deliciousness of their breakfast My husband ordered SF sandwich, which had roasted turkey and roast beef on a grilled sourdough bread. It came with the side of American potato salad. The portion was so generous that he brought half home. I've decided to go carnivore this morning, so I ordered three scrambled eggs and a 6 ounce steak. My plate came with hashbrowns and sourdough toast, which I boxed up and brought home for my husband's lunch. I was very pleased with the price of my plate, only $15.50, less than some of the sandwiches. Steak was OK, a little more well done than I would've liked, but I'm not complaining. The wait staff are also kind and efficient. Restaurant is clean and everybody seems to know everybody else in this tiny town.
