Busy place in town. Great breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Great service for such a busy place

Sad I didn't take any pictures for my review but it seems to be on brand that I'm always forgetting. Overall, have been coming to the bakery for year. Well before it's charming renovation, back to when it had leather bar stools at the bakery counter and Jim in the back making the best apple fritters you've ever had. I come whenever I'm in town and it's always good. I think more than anything I come for the nostalgia. The Rice Krispie treats are always a solid pick and I enjoy them a lot. Same with the smiley face cookies, the bakery frosting is the best. I got a parfait for the first time since high school though and was sorely disappointed. They used to use wake robin yogurt (which I do remember them discontinuing some years ago), but now the yogurt is SO sweet. Overall it makes the parfait too sweet with the homemade granola and blueberry coulis. I couldn't help but notice how much smaller the parfait portions are too. They used to be full sized cups and now they're nearly half their former size which was definitely disappointing considering the price has certainly not gone down. In summary, the bakery will always hold a special place in my heart. Been going since I was a baby. The treats are good, sandwiches are solid, and they have a wide variety of beverages. Steer clear of the updated parfait though read more

Love it ! I ordered the egg and olive sandwich, with gluten free bread option. It was delicious and perfect size for my tummy. Highly recommended when you are visiting Skaneateles. I'm sorry I was so hungry that I took a bite before I took the photo. read more

TLDR; decent food, bad service, unclean practices, beware of 3% up charge if paying with card. Stopped by for some sandwiches on a Saturday afternoon, and the line was out the door. The roast chicken breast ($11.50), BLT ($10), and smoked turkey ($12) were all pretty good, standard sandwiches. Didn't try any desserts or drinks, though the coffee options seemed popular. Service was subpar and very unpleasant, as some other reviews here mention - the young girls working the register and the man making the sandwiches all seemed like they didn't want to be there, and were not very kind. They also don't use gloves when making sandwiches. Also beware that they upcharge 3% if paying with card - mentioned on a small slip of paper near the register. They seemed to already have factored this in, despite the fact that we paid with cash. Overall, unfortunately would not return, nor recommend. read more

The Skaneateles Bakery popped up on every 'what to do in Skaneateles' article so we had to make a trip in. It was a rainy Saturday morning about 11:30 and it was busy in there! Cinnamon rolls were sold out and there was only one pop tart left so of course we had to try it. The coffee smelled delicious and the girl at the register was so kind! Additionally, we tried the raspberry pineapple scone and a pumpkin whoopie pie. Everything was good but not over the top amazing. The whoopie pie was yummy but the icing was the best part the outside was a little dense. The pop tart was okay but there was not much filling on the inside so if you don't love pie crust this is not the pastry for you. And the scone was yummy and would've paired perfectly with a coffee. I'd go back to try again earlier in the morning. read more

We came here for an early afternoon snack. It was packed, with a line out the door, but it moved fairly quickly. They have baked goods, as well as sandwiches, hot and cold beverages, and smoothies. I tried a carrot cupcake. I was delighted that it didn't have nuts or raisins in it, as those are usually my gripes with carrot cake. It was very moist and the cream cheese frosting was A+, which is harder than you might think to find! I also had a matcha latte. It was sweetened with vanilla, so it still had the natural matcha taste. My husband got the mocha and enjoyed that it tasted like hot chocolate. They have several tables inside and we were lucky enough to snag one, despite how busy it was. I can certainly see why it's such a popular spot in town! read more

While staying at the Mirbeau Inn & Spa we decided to venture to downtown Skaneatles. We found the cutest bakery and sandwich cafe where we had a light breakfast. I had the veggie breakfast sandwich with turkey sausage ( I added) with a pumpkin spice latte. My friend had the bacon,egg and cheese sandwich and a cup of Peppermint tea. I have to say for a Wednesday mid- morning it was quite busy but the staff kept the line moving! The baked goods looked delish!Definitely worth the stop!! read more

It's very cute and inside. The perfect ambiance for a small cafe/bakery. I bought a cinnamon roll and a vanilla-coconut doughnut. Both were scrumptious. I actually was pleasantly surprised by the doughnut because it's a cake doughnut and it wasn't dry but perfectly made! The staff were helpful and friendly. I gave 4 stars only because it took about 10 min for them to make my coffee while it was pretty dead inside the bakery. I wasn't in a rush, but considering I was the only person in line, I would just expect a simple coffee not take that long to make. Otherwise, I will def be returning for more goodies. Everything looked and smelled amazing! read more

Online ordering is smooth, but can get backed up in the morning rush. Bakery items are fresh and delicious. Seating is very limited and can feel cramped at times. read more

I ordered a cold brew coffee and a steel-cut oatmeal. I asked for no use in my coffee drink. I received a half-full cup of coffee. The server said they provide the smaller portion due to the no-ice serving. Then my oatmeal was served in a bowl that dwarfed the small serving of oats. There was about three tablespoons of lonely oatmeal in the bowl. It was a bad experience. So to save about three cents worth of coffee they created ill will with this regular customer. read more

My go to for lunch currently for work! They are always busy which is amazing but I mobile order on toast and their ready times are always 100% accurate. I finally remembered it take pictures of my go to - the buffalo chicken melt and my summer fav back their lavender haze latte! It is a small bakery with delicious breakfast and lunch items, along with their baked goods. Some seating is available if you wanted to dine in, but I enjoy walking over to the lake and sitting out in the sun. The lavender haze latte is by far my favorite and it's my favorite lavender latter from anywhere (Starbucks can't compare). They make it with lavender, honey, and vanilla and it is perfect! The buffalo chicken melt is perfect for anyone it's on the mild side. The fresh mozzarella, smashed avocado, and their bread is the perfect combination! I only eat half in one sitting, it is very filling. Side note, their plain and everything bagels are pretty good too! They add tons of cream cheese if you choose to add it. A great quick breakfast bite. read more

Let me just say... I was NOT emotionally prepared for how good this little bakery would be. I popped into Skaneateles Bakery while strolling through town (truly, this place looks like a postcard), and I'm still thinking about my lunch. I ordered the smoked turkey sandwich and I don't say this lightly - it might be the best sandwich I've had in years. The bread? Immaculate. The turkey? Flavorful and perfectly portioned. Whoever's in the back making these sandwiches deserves a raise AND a hug. I couldn't resist grabbing a Rice Krispy treat for dessert (I mean... when in upstate New York, right?) and OH my goodness. Chewy, buttery, nostalgic, and somehow better than the ones I made for my kids back home in ATL. Don't tell them. The place is charming, the service is quick and friendly, and everything felt fresh and made with love. Honestly, if I lived here full-time I'd be in this bakery way too often. You better believe I'll be coming back next time I'm in town. Consider me a fan. A loud one. read more

I have been meaning to check out this bakery for a while. I wanted to come for pastries and coffee, but I ended up coming here late afternoon just because of my schedule. I was pleased to try and love the buffalo chicken melt. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. They were also helpful in getting my order to me quickly. I enjoyed my experience here and I will definitely be back again. This café is located right near the lake which makes it great for walking around after stopping at the bakery. It is small here, but there are definitely tables and chairs to enjoy breakfast and lunch or a treat. read more

Friendly staff and a nice variety of food and drinks make this a must try! The good. While the staff seemed to be pretty busy with online orders, I was greeted immediately with a warm smile. I ordered a capachinno and a bacon, egg and cheese chibatta, which was wonderful. I also grabbed a few donuts for the girls which they loved! The bad. Really nothing. The wait time was about 10 minutes, but I was behind at least 4 online orders, so they got it done pretty quickly! The ugly. This is definitely a nice little spot to try if you're in the area and in the mood for an affordable coffee and treat. I say check them out! read more

We went to this place for Father's Day breakfast and it did not disappoint! We ordered 5 breakfast sandwiches (thought we received only 4, I let it slide because the place was busy and loud so I can understand how the server did not hear us) and they tasted excellent. I personally had the egg and cheese with chorizo and it was spot on! Later we went back and ordered drinks and desert. Let me tell you, it was delectable! The donuts are so soft and buttery and their half moon cookies are homemade so they taste infinitely better than store bought! And their iced tea...honestly I don't have enough words to describe it, it was that good! I strongly suggest going here for breakfast and dessert! read more

Some of the best breakfast sandwiches that I've had, but I'll be better prepared next time. Come here with your own water glass and coffee mug, as they no longer provide disposable or their own mugs for the water dispenser, and they discount coffee when served into your own mug. They are also frequently out of something, so it's good to have some backup options when ordering. The people ringing us up were pleasant, and could answer most questions about the food. The bakery itself was quite small, but with enough seating not to feel claustrophobic. There was a clean bathroom inside, but the door didn't lock, and I happened to walk into a high chair on my way from the bathroom, so it helps to pay attention. read more

We were visiting the area and several local merchants recommended that we stop here for lunch. I have a lot of food sensitivities so I ordered a chicken sandwich with no condiments or cheese. The bread was wonderfully toasted and crust was chewy - who would have known that crust could be this good!! They did have a great selection of baked goods and hubby got a few to snack on throughout the day - he loved the vanilla cupcake! read more

10/10 recommend stopping here for a quick lunch or breakfast sandwich. The wait is a little long typically so I recommend ordering pickup. It's a cute little spot to have a quick bite to eat with friends when it's not too busy, it's in the heart of town which is nice. The smoked turkey sandwich is the best and a simple grilled cheese and tomato soup is great when it's chilly. Most importantly they have the BEST gluten free bread... not thin and doesn't fall apart (my favorite part of the bakery). read more

I love this place, but more importantly it's the only l place there is to go for coffee and smoothies and such. There's the Patisserie behind the Sherwood Inn that has amazing pastries and straight up plain coffee, if they's what you're looking for. But if you want a cold brew or a latte, this is the place. Also great baked goods here, but every time I go there's a line out the door and down the sidewalk. read more

What a disappointment. I was so excited after reading reviews and getting recommendations from friends. We got coffees, some macaroons, and a Whoopi pie. I ordered 4 macaroons and was only given 2 . I had to go back up to counter to tell them of mistake. Cashier at first didn't believe me and looked up my order( they don't give you a receipt) when she realized she was wrong, she grabbed 2 more and mumbled an apology. The macaroons were very dry ( possibly old). The Whoopi's pie was good. This place was packed so I have to believe this is a one off but I was not impressed. read more

The place is very cute. The bake goods are not that great. The carrot cake cupcake was way too sweet. The macarons were very very bad. We got all the flavors and they were all dry crispy and broke apart. It was like eating a matzah cracker. Will go back for coffee. read more

Skaneateles is one of my favorite towns in the Finger Lakes. It has an adorable downtown and a beautiful lakeside section. We were starving when we arrived and were lucky enough to find the Skaneateles Bakery. We loved everything we had there. My favorite thing was the peanut butter bar with smooth, creamy peanut butter. I dream of it often. My husband loved his Roast Beef Sandwich and chicken noodle soup. I absolutely loved the Smoked Turkey Sandwich. Everything about it was amazing. Their tomato basil soup was ok. I was hoping it would be better. Everything is made with high quality and fresh ingredients. Can't wait to try other delicious things on the menu! You must try this place. Everything is delicious. read more

As a native of Skaneateles, I miss the old bakery but this place is a family favorite. The donuts are awesome. Can't beat one fresh out of the fryer!

Lovely little bakery located in the heart of the village of Skaneateles. Went here early in the morning, can get busy even on weekdays. Not an overwhelming selection of baked goods but there was a decent amount to choose from including donuts, muffins, scones and croissants (etc..). During my visit I got two coffees, two breakfast sandwiches, and two donuts. Everything came to a round $35 with tip. Everything is made fresh to order, so after ordering there was about a 15 minute wait. You can call ahead and order so it's available for pick up upon arrival which is good to know and they even have an order online option, which is even easier. There are a few tables for sitting if you want to stay and enjoy your breakfast there. For the breakfast sandwich I did the veggie White which I thought was pretty good and comes on a ciabatta bread. My husband had the egg and cheese on ciabatta with sausage which he said tasted like an average breakfast sandwich. They also have bagels, oatmeal, and parfaits. At lunchtime they have cold and grilled sandwiches and they also have soup and salad. Their soups are on a daily rotation. They also have smoothies. Plenty of parking nearby including street parking and a large parking lot located a block away. read more

Food overall good but been going to this place for years. Why is the staff always so annoyed and unfriendly? If you don't like the job work elsewhere! Today we were ordering a bunch of items and I was thinking about the bread on one of the orders for barely 10 seconds? And she looked at the next person in the not long line as it was not at a busy time - can I help the next person ? How rude! And when we got to our camp-They did not get any of the bread correct on all the sandwiches. Maybe try valentines around the corner in the future. Or Good Food next to them read more

Cute little spot giving some Ginny and Georgia vibes in the heart of Skaneateles. Their coffee and pastries are great. Some of our favorites were the donuts, the cookies (mmm molasses cookie) , and their brownies. The sandwiches are delicious too. I had a roast beef, which had the perfect amount of tang from mustard with a subtle crunch from fried onions. The chicken pesto was more of a panini. Chili and soup and stews were all warm and cozy in the cold winter day. I'm not gonna lie the hit for my kids and myself, however, it was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. If you can make a peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, stand out the place must be amazing. Service was great too. Friendly small town kid vibes. Oh! And baby friendly! (High chair and a table to change diapers on) read more

Oh wow.. this place rocks. I mean ok, I have a tendency to give bakeries good reviews but this one deserves it. Everything from cupcakes to fresh homemade doughnuts. Every time I go here they have the "staples" like the doughnuts however the other items change a bit. Various cookies, macarons and scones are readily available. They also offer the option of ordering online to pick up later so you can avoid the usual line.. which I consider a sign of a good bakery read more

Fun and delicious spot! We got egg and cheese sandwiches, split a cinnamon sugar donut, and had cappuccinos. All were impressive and we enjoyed the quaint feel and great selection.

Skaneateles Bakery earns a solid 4 stars for its inviting atmosphere and warm customer service. They have delicious baked goods and sandwiches.

OMG!!!!!! This place was amazing. We found it on yelp as we did not want to get too much food before dinner but wanted a quick snack and I am so glad that we did. I feel that this establishment did a very good job in regards to Covid and I hope that they continue what they are doing. I ordered a mocha and I was going to ask for an extra shot in which I was informed that he already put two shots in and requesting an extra would be four shots. I'm glad that they told me this as sleeping would have been a little difficult. Then the sandwich... Holy cow... We were taken back by the sheer size of it as I did not hold back. I'm glad that we bought one and split between us as it was still a full sandwich. But I would've settled for just the bread as it was delicious on its own. Overall great place and highly recommend read more
