    a bakery display case filled with baked goods
    Cody P.

    This is one of those places we occasionally drive past when we're on the far end of State Fair Blvd for whatever reason. Being close to Johnny Mac's made it easier to justify the drive. We put the miles on Johnny Mac's, and then hey since we're right here... I've only seen PBJ donuts at Harrison. While I won't remember this place for their donuts, the PBJ donut was the best. They have a variety of half moon cookies too, which are the best. Honestly, I don't really see the hype about half moon cookies in general, but they're a local thing so I always end up getting them. I like a firm texture, and they have amazing, unique flavors to keep things interesting. We still have plenty to try, but we got a decent feel for the place with our two visits. To our surprise, the donuts and Danishes were average. It's the other pastries we'd come back for. The eclairs were our favorite, and at that point we were just pointing to things, so there were a few others we'd come back for, although I couldn't tell you what they were. We accidentally left the peanut butter cookie in the box for three days, and even then it was the best cookie we've bought from a bakery. We definitely want to try the bread, the cake, muffins, and like 5 other pastries at least. Also the cannolis, which are fresh and filled to order! The lady behind the counter is very nice. Not only was she patient while we took 20 minutes figuring out how to fill our box, but she talked to us the whole time and explained everything at least once. Highly recommend coming here to try one of everything.

    Crisp horns of almond-ricotta bliss!

    If there's one thing Syracuse excels at, it's baked goods. This little gem is no exception! They carry a selection of a number of intriguing offerings. I opted for the horns- a light, crispy layered shell, filled with ricotta and some almond flavor, and dusted with powdered sugar. What bliss! The pastry itself has a lovely crunch- no soggy bottoms here, as Mary Berry would say. The ricotta is rich and creamy with no chunkiness, and the almond flavor really shines through. If you are looking for a delightful pastry, this is it. We also got a doughnut and some muffins, which I am very much looking forward to eating. Bella Bakery is worth the little drive past the fairgrounds. Might I suggest picking something sweet up as a reward after you get your vaccine?

    Lovely, tasty goodies.

    See all

    All the baked goods look so delicious and the staff is soooooo nice. Jasmine or Jazmine, you are…read moresuch a sweet soul and so wonderful. She made my first experience here so amazing. Such a sweet and calm person!

    I'll start with the great. The staff have always been wonderful when I've come. They always…read moreappreciate the small tip I leave them. As a Brooklyn boy I always found it odd there was no tip jar, we do things differently where I'm from. The prices for their goods is extremely good. Syracuse, take note of this and cherish your establishments. I walked out with two dozen donuts & a single danish cheese for $25. A famous national chain charges I think over $2.25 for a subpar donut. When I visit Cuse, I always stop here but this past time I feel the donuts were not as fresh as they once were, this could be very biased due to my experience and I don't go that often, the regulars will have better input in quality of the years. But what happened below is why I'm no longer stopping in. Saturday the 27th I pull into the parking lot and see a woman outside asking for change, very normal for me where I'm from. I don't say anything. I came inside to do a good deed, bring my neighbor and his children a dozen of donuts and grab a dozen for my family and an army buddy visiting from the west coast. I'm in a good mood. I never give people change, I always buy food. I decided I'll buy a cheese danish for the very thin woman outside in the cold. I add that to my order. Total $25 gave $30 and told the Wonderful Woman who took my order to keep the rest for herself. As I walk out, I offer the woman the cheese danish. She declined it. In a very rude way saying "she doesn't eat desserts". Now toots, you're in front of a damn bakery. People are more inclined to give you food as opposed to money so we don't support your clear drug habit. In Brooklyn where I'm from, the people like that still take the food, say thank you as it's still a kind gesture with good intentions and tosses it when you leave. That being said, there is no issue at this point. I say, "ok, have a good day and walk to my car". If the owner would like to review footage, it's the black 4Runner with NY disabled veteran plates. As I'm getting into my car, the same woman screams at me. Saying "bounce b-I-t-c-h" and telling me I better leave. Of course I reply with every profanity known to man and leave. The next morning I go again to take two donuts for my drive back to Brooklyn. Guess who's there? Yup the same delusional woman. Asks again for change and I tell her, "not after the way you treated me yesterday, I'll probably never give someone anything again that asks". Then she says "why does this man come here? I walk inside, order my two donuts and receive great service from the gentleman with glasses, who I gave a $1 tip to in two donuts. As I'm walking out another customer in the waking into the parking lot of course hands her a dollar. I told him my experience and he still chose too, hey it's America do what you wish. But when this broad is here every day, it's because people keep giving her money. But hey, his choice. And I'll do as I wish. I will no longer be coming to a Harrison Bakery. If they allow a delusional person to sit for hours everyday on THEIR property to accost/ harass customers, they cleary do not value us as customers to have a great peaceful experience. The donuts & Black & Whites are not that good to have to ruin my vibe. It's their property. Harrison bakery is 100% responsible of who is on their property and for what purpose. Syracuse PD will have no issue with issuing a no trespass for this person who literally stands or lays against the brick wall all day. Keep in mind. This is coming from someone who literally grew up in homeless shelters from time to time, even a bit of time at the Vera house down the road.
