    Gabrielle's Bakery - Bakery hours September 2022

    Gabrielle's used to be my favorite place in the Village of Lancaster. I supported them constantly…read more They have wonderful gluten free baked goods, as well as great breakfast sandwiches with a gluten free roll, if one so chooses. I will discuss three different run ins with Gabrielle's. First one - I went there in January to grab some sweets for a little crafting party I was hosting. I ordered both gluten free items and non gluten free items. The woman working, who was new, proceeds to ask me if she can put the non gf and the gf in one container. I said absolutely not. How can you not be trained on this, or not know not to do that. Why would I be ordering gf items, if I'm going to agree to put them in the same container. It defeats the purpose. Second time - Valentine's Day. My husband and I had a tradition of going to support Gabrielle's on Valentine's Day because they offered different gf items and a romantic atmosphere. This was our third time attending since living in the village. We arrived right when they opened, and they weren't opened yet, which was fine. When the owner unlocked the door, she wasn't very friendly. I let it slide, and continued to choose to visit Gabrielle's because I loved the baked goods and breakfast sandwiches. Third time - I stopped in on my way to an event to get a breakfast sandwich. It was about 10 minutes after they opened on a Saturday. It was quite busy there. There were roughly 2 or 3 tables occupied throughout my half hour stay.  Most notably there was a mom and daughter there. I'll get back to that in a minute. When I arrived, I was the only one at the counter. The same girl from the first not great encounter was making coffee behind the counter. That is fine. What wasn't fine, was that she didn't acknowledge me at all and I waited there awkwardly to put my order in for a good 5 minutes. Weird, that you wouldn't say, "Hi, it will just be a minute, as I'm working on another order,"  or something like that. The owner also came out of the kitchen during this time and took several Door Dash orders, but also didn't acknowledge me standing there. All I needed was a Hi, I'll be right with you. Something. I felt like a ghost. Fast forward, woman takes my order. It is for a gluten free breakfast sandwich. I sit down and wait. I wait for a solid half hour for my breakfast sandwich to be complete. During this time, the mother and daughter duo go up to the counter and say that they told the woman when they ordered that they needed to get everything by 9am, and it was 9am, and they still hadn't gotten their sandwiches yet. Why does it take a half hour to make 2 breakfast sandwiches?! They finally get their order and leave. The woman goes from the kitchen to the counter and is yelling to the owner, "If they wanted their food faster, they should have went to Tim Hortons." There was me and about 2 other tables present for that. I thought that statement was absolutely horrific and disgusting. Everyone who came through Gabrielle's and who goes to Gabriele's chooses to spend their money locally. To help a local family and support their business. To say that in front of customers, is abhorrent. I finally got my breakfast sandwich and left. I ruminated this for a while and decided against posting this review and emailing them directly about how this comment was unwarranted and not ok and the employee should be reprimanded. I received no reply back. This happened in February and it is now May. I have not received any acknowledgement regarding that my comment was received. I can only take it as the owner and employees don't care. Thus, I'm posting my review.   Not to mention that they claim to sell fresh bread on Saturdays, and there were a couple customers who arrived asking to purchase the fresh bread, and were told it was still rising and would be ready around 1 pm or so. What?! You would think they would be more in a hurry to get their bread out on a Saturday morning. That is when people want to eat fresh bread. It breaks my heart that I can't support this business anymore because the baked goods are so delicious, but I'm going to support other local businesses that value their customer base and are happy that the customers who walk through their doors want to support local.

    We were shopping in Lancaster and needed a quick snack/coffee break. Luckily Gabrielle's was still…read moreopen and we popped in quick to grab something as we checked out all of the shops on Main Street. It was a busy Saturday so there were a few people in front of us. We decided to get some things out of the pastry case and a couple chai lattes to go. Unfortunately for us with it being later in the day, the last of some of the items we wanted got taken before us but we ended up getting a slice of pumpkin roll, a cider donut, and a slice of carrot cake. The desserts were all so good. The cream cheese frosting was made perfectly and the cider donut had such a great flavor to it. The only downside was the wait for the drinks. The drinks took about 15-20 minutes to get to us. They were short on staff it seemed like so no worries but we had finished our food and were waiting for the drinks still. This is a really cute little spot on Main Street and I would love to go check it out again and hopefully try a couple of the things we didn't have a chance to next time.

    My go to bakery in the Buffalo area since I was a kid. They have so many amazing treats and can…read morealso make wonderful custom creations. The bakery itself is easy to get to and has parking right in front of it. They have cookies, pastries, cakes, donuts, breads, rolls, pies, cheesecakes and more. It smells amazing when you walk in and between the great smell and the fabulous looking pastries, your mouth will water! If you know there is something specific you want (even if it isn't something custom like a cake) you can pre order to ensure it will be there for you when you visit. Because they do sell out of some of their most popular items. The staff is incredible. Extremely knowledgeable, patient and friendly. And amazing at what they do! This is the place to go whether it is just for a sweet treat on a random day or for a special occasion.

    I've been going to Eileen's for my whole life, at one point I even lived across the street!…read more It's a great bakery with yummy treats. I love the donuts, and the cookies are a great treat (the Smily Face is my favorite). Super busy at times, but are great at making sure everyone gets their turn in order. Old school bakery with cases full of fresh baked treats and loads of bread in the middle of the store. Almond Rings always makes people happy!
