If I just have to venture out into Bronxville at all, aside from Lawrence Hospital this is my only other destination.
Without getting into a history on why I despise the town of Bronxville and refusing to go anywhere into that out of touch, selective, tight-assed community, I'll just say that my main destination in Bronxville at all has always been the hospital for one reason or another. Gillard's is directly across the street from the emergency room entrance.
As stated above, whether it's accompanying someone to the ER or visiting someone who's staying at the hospital there, I won't go anywhere in town aside from Gillard's, which is a better alternative to the pricey hospital gift shop, with a better selection of items as well. From drinks, to snacks, cheap toys, greeting cards, or the like, this place always seems to have what I need for the moment.
The store is sizable and could probably add in another aisle or two, but aside from that I do like knowing that this store is there when I need it to be. From what I can recall, the store has been there for over 35 years - so they must be doing something right. read more
