This bakery is completely gluten free with no oats in their recipes. We tried seven different treats and they were all delicious! I loved that they were not excessively sweet. The mini Bundt cakes were amazing. They used many different tasty flavours. Yummy!

This is a special place, the kind you remember, but can never find. By the Way Bakery is an old-fashioned bakery where everything is made by hand, from scratch, in small batches. And, by the way, all of our baked goods are gluten-free and dairy-free. They're also certified kosher. Most important, everything we make is as delicious as – if not better than – most conventional baked goods.



Blueberry muffins bursting with blueberries. A lemon layer cake made with fresh lemon zest and filled with homemade lemon curd. A chocolate chip cookie made with the finest Belgian chocolate. A smile you can taste.

Come visit us to find out why so many people have fallen in love with our bite-size little shops!

Delicious baked goods that I feel safe eating! I have a severe gluten (wheat, barley, and malt) and dairy allergy and have never gotten ill. Pricey, but worth it!

I went in here on a rainy fall day after dropping a family member of at HPN. It was well worth the drive on my way back to CT. For the first time in forever, I could eat a baked good made by someone other than myself that was made in a dedicated GF facility. Thank you!

Stopped here on my way back to MA from NY. I’d read great things from this app and man I wasn’t disappointed. I got an oatmeal raisin cookie that was EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for, a pumpkin bunt cake that was super delicious, and a Chocolate chip cinnamon muffin that was very yummy. Anyone that finds one of these DO NOT I repeat DO NOT drive past it. I promise it’s well worth the trip

Love this Gluten Free and Dairy free bakery! Their mini bundt cakes are my favorite like the apple and the carrot so delicious! Haven’t had anything there I don’t love. And now to make it better they carry some products at Whole Foods near me too in case I have a sweet tooth after the bakery is closed for the day.

And everything, haha! The staff were very patient with our slow decision making and there were samples... Plus its dairy free and they make kosher foods.... Needless to ssy, we went to town with our order and didn't regret it!

Very cute little bakery in a very cute main street area. Not much for parking though.

We bought a coconut layer cake which was absolutely fantastic and worth a drive and a small fortune ($40 for a 8 inch cake) for something without gluten and dairy that tastes so good. We saved some for the next day and it was still fabulous.

We also bought a boule (round bread) which was just ok, and not worth $10. It was fairly dense and a little too sweet for what was supposed to be a rustic bread. Better bread is made with the King Arthur bread mix.

Staff was very friendly and great at explaining the products.

Gluten free, dairy free kosher dedicated facility. The fourth in the chain. All desserts and challah on Fridays. Drop coffee with almond or soy milk. Everything is great if a little sugary, but it is a bakery. Friendly staff.
