Incredibly bummed, especially seeing all the positive press around the quality and the sourcing…read morethey claim to approach business with, that quite a lot of the food being served was from SYSCO or another large similar restaurant supply vendor, ordered by the case and baked from frozen. Now first off, don't get me wrong, buying in bulk or sacrificing the quality of some ingredients to large suppliers like this is definitely a reality when running a restaurant. Even moreso in this day and age when ingredient prices are exorbitant. That said, it needs to be reflected in the price point. Pastries are arranged beautifully under cloches in the display case, but I could spot the premade, ready-to-bake spinach feta bistro (https://www.chefswarehouse.com/products/QZ119984/) or ham and cheese croissant (https://www.chefswarehouse.com/products/99971/) from a mile away. The avocado spread on the preassembled breakfast sandwiches is definitely the pulp from the 3lb bag from Chef's Warehouse too. I know that taste! All of that said, they had a few items in the case that I'm sure weren't from one of these big vendors. Which was great to see. My (yes, unsolicited!) advice would be to pare down the menu. Offer just a bit less so you can focus on the quality. Try and tap into some local producers if you can! That's one of the best things about the Hudson Valley... how much all the purveyors and markets and cafes support each other. It's clear too how much they care about the community. They're dog friendly inside. No WiFi to encourage people to chat with one another. Fine. I really want to see this place continue to thrive, it's just a bit of a bummer that a significant part of the menu including things that really should be fresh, aren't.

Five stars. Easily…read more I have now tried a truly unreasonable number of things from Mel's in a few days, and every single one has been excellent. The jalapeño and cheese pretzel was great, the cardamom bun was delicious, the chocolate croissant was excellent, and the egg and cheese on a biscuit was probably my favorite thing I ate all weekend. I also picked up the blueberry and yuzu pastry, which I haven't tried yet, but at this point I have complete faith. I also just love the vibe in here. It feels warm and welcoming and like everyone is meant to be there. There are a bunch of fun things to look at while you're waiting in line, there's a great little outdoor area to sit and eat, and the whole place just feels GOOD. I was in London the prior week marveling at how good the bakeries were per their differential on butter and flour, but this place wiped that "London does it better" feeling right from my brain. Honestly, this is one of my favorite bakeries I've been to. I came back more than once while I was in the area and drove 30 minutes each way, which should tell you everything you need to know!

We…read morehave been for brunch, for their fresh breads and for their many amazing baked goods, but Le Perche is rarely open for dinner so we did not know what to expect. Dinner was OUTSTANDING. We started with their signature focaccia, fresh out of the oven. Then, a seasonal Asparagus Tarte that was very much a deconstructed version: a delicious butter crust at the bottom of the plate, frisée lettuce, perfectly prepared asparagus topped with a pecorino creme vinaigrette. The perfect spring dish. Next was a Tuna crudo with ramp oil, watermelon radishes, fresh microgreens and toasted hazelnuts. Finally, their take on a Frisée aux Lardons, served with pickled figs. The lardons themselves were nicely crisped, and very satisfying. We had Negronis for cocktails, and a generous carafe of rose, served off the tap. All around one of the best meals I've had. Can't wait for the next menu that Chef Jeffrey Gimmel puts together. Apparently this is a monthly series, so keep a look out and don't miss the June dinner, guessing end of June on a Saturday night?

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Unfortunately, they no longer have the sticky bun. Apparently, the cost of honey became too expensive to keep it on the menu. I was actually really disappointed because I drove all the way here specifically to try the sticky bun! Since we didn't end up eating a meal, I decided to try the cream puffs instead. They were light, airy, and had a nice texture, but they weren't very sweet. The sweetness was very subtle, which may be perfect if you prefer desserts that aren't overly sweet. I'd definitely come back for the atmosphere and to try their other offerings--but I'm still sad about missing out on that sticky bun!

I ordered the Chicken Sandwich, which was, surprisingly, a chicken SALAD sandwich. I'd envisioned a piece of chicken (which they said was "roasted") with the mentioned Dijon mustard and pickled onions and a side of slaw. Instead, the chicken was cut into chunks and smothered (And I do mean smothered.) in, what I presume was the endive slaw and Dijon mustard plus the pickled onions. Overpowering. This was served with a side of endive with vinegar dressing. The sandwich bread was delicious, though. They should change this item to "Chicken Salad Sandwich" instead of using "Chicken Sandwich." My friends ordered the breakfast sandwich with eggs and bacon and a slice of the quiche, which they said were okay. These three lunches plus a small Coke and iced tea (I had water.) set us back $90.00 with the tip. Way overpriced for the food.

My family and I couldn't have been happier with our visit. The only downside was the limited amount of indoor seating available, but that's not a complaint--rather, just something to know if you're planning of stopping in for a bagel. If the weather is cold, the outdoor seating isn't likely an option. I highly recommend Hudson Bagels! If I ever make it back to Hudson, I'll visit this shop again! :-)

I can't stress enough how perfectly the flavors, textures, and ingredients came together. You'll understand what I mean upon first bite. I also had bites of the Grapefruit Brûlée and Biscuit. Both were such a delight. The biscuit was shockingly incredible... on par with high tea in London. The ambiance was festive (came the weekend after Christmas), cozy, and charming.
