Lately there have been a lot of reviews for this spot from other yelpers about this spot…read more When I first read it, I was like, where is this breakfast spot in Ballston Spa. I'm not beven exaggerating, but I have probably passed this spot like a 1000 times and didn't know this was a deli spot. A big tip here, make sure you market it properly as only locals who have tried would be aware of it. And guess what, this local never knew and mistook it for a convenience store. The deli has a lot of potential with a little upgrades. The deli has few spots for indoor seating and an amazing spot with picnic benches, in the woods with a view of a creek. The deli has been voted Saratogas best multiple times. I just got to know it but, this deli is listed for sale. We tried an eggplant panini and a chicken cheese steak. Both of which were good. We took the tiramisu to go. They do get a few bakerybitems from NYC everyday. Small local restaurant that is definitely worth a try. They have ample parking and could get crowded.

Love this place!! Night Work bread is one of my favorite stops in Ballston Spa! Everything they…read moremake is sourdough-based and you can really taste the difference. The bread is so good!! Great flavor and great texture; and, I appreciate that they use organic ingredients. I actually wouldn't eat there if they didn't. The bagels are honestly amazing. They are the only bagels I will eat because they are organic sourdough (it's the only non-gf I'll eat). They are crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside, just how a bagel should be! Whenever I've ordered a bagel and cream cheese (which is more than a dozen times), they've always been very generous with the cream cheese, which I appreciate! They've also got more than just bread. They sell some local gifts and things: flowers, crocheted items, little crafts, chocolates, etc. Their cookies are soooooooo delicious. We always get at least one to enjoy after we eat our bagels. :-) There is a small sandwich menu (no hot items though - like no hot egg sandwiches, just egg salad). They also serve hot coffee! One tip: Go early. They often sell out of bagels and treats, especially on the weekends! It's just a really solid spot with really good food! Definitely worth checking out! We drive 25 minutes just to enjoy their bagels, bread, and treats!!

I'm back once again, to try their sourdough bagels that they're known for. I've always liked their…read moresourdough baguettes and bread so I was sure that their bagels would not disappoint. Their friendly staff bagged up my everything bagel, onion as well as sesame bagel. When I got them home, I was pleasantly surprised to see how sizable and well seasoned they happened to be. They were crisp with a nice chew as well as soft on the inside. Absolutely delish and I will be back for more!

This is the place to go for dried chiles like ancho, guajillo and pasilla, which used to be…read moreavailable at local supermarkets but no more. They are hand packed and sold in large bags for $10, which is more than I need or wanted to pay but in the end too many chiles is a nice problem to have because it means a lot of Mexican cooking. There are a variety of other Mexican grocery items like epazote and chocolate, and I was tempted by some cute tortilla baskets behind the counter. I didn't order food but the menu appeals. In addition to expected items like burritos and enchiladas there are tortas (Mexican sub), tlayudas (Mexican pizza) and huaraches (a stretched-out tostada) and I plan to return to give them a try. This appears to be a one-person shop, so call your order in or expect to wait if they are busy.

Found this place while out with friends as of recent. It's a restaurant and Mexican store…read more The owner was very friendly and quick with our orders. Weall were happy with what we ordered and it tasted authentic She served us water right away and took out orders. I had the tlayuda which I never had before with pork and it was a huge tortilla sandwich cut into two pieces. My friend had the chicken enchiladas and my other had the chicken milanese, and it all was great. Not a fancy place but a must go to if you want really amazing Mexican food.

Can't believe I just heard of Mom & Pop's; clearly I've been living under a rock. This family owned business knows how to provide delicious food fast! It was obvious that there are MANY regulars (the owner was on a first name basis with everyone that walked in)-which I would be if I lived a smidge closer. Loved my Mediterranean omelette; the skillet got rave reviews (and a to-go box!). Picked up some cookies and struffoli (yaaassss Italian honey balls FTW!!) for a Christmas dinner I'll be attending..plus a couple of pieces of eggnog cake (which were insanely good...those won't make it to Xmas dinner). I'd like to go back again soon and try some other breakfast (or lunch) items. They close at 2pm and are currently open Monday-Friday (so I can only get there on a day off). Oh-they do catering, too.

I had the "Day After" Turkey Panini with homemade apple stuffing and cranberry mayonnaise. But, the standout was the cup of their award winning chowder to start. It arrived at the table with a crab Rangoon stuff wonton and bacon bits on top. It was amazing!!! The cafe is full of neighborhood love and kindness. The service is amazing: friendly and prompt. And, I couldn't get over the story of how the cafe was inspired. The owners wife died of breast cancer at the age of 42 and this place is his love letter to her memory. If you live within an hours drive time of this place RUN don't walk to try this restaurant. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

They placed it together when I arrived. If you've never been to the Ballston spa location and it's your first time, things to know: - tables for about 12 people in the restaurant at a time (no larger parties) - it gets warm in there, no matter the season! - they serve canned drinks and bottled water, so if you're a guzzler, bring your large reusable water bottle My favorite part was how the hummus was the best hummus I've had in years. No other restaurant makes it like this in the area and you've got to go in and try it!
