That Gambles doesn 't even have its own name on its sign speaks to its complete lack of pretension. One might even read the simple green sign advertising Bakery Eatery as a subtle rebuke to the brightly lit chain restaurants and garish tourist traps that dot this stretch of Route 9 in Queensbury. There are even fewer frills inside, which features a small breakfast and lunch counter and tables for perhaps 40 50 guests. The menu is cash only, and as best I can tell no single dish costs more than $8 (they do have an ATM). The long bakery display cases filled with donuts, pastries, and other treats should tip you off on how to order. I had the Paska, one of five types of French Toast made with t...
I went to Gambles Bakery yesterday. I called ahead and asked if they sold sour dough bread the man told me well the only type sour dough bread we have is the sandwich sliced. wich was perfect! Was in line for 20 min the woman behind the counter had a terrible cough (yikes I 'm thinking Pandemic going on), the elderly woman behind the counter then tells me we don 't have any I mentioned I called ahead! She went in the back and yes I got a FROZEN loaf of ? sour dough bread, was not labeled. I am not going back. I have never gone to a Baekery expecting a FROZEN loaf of bread! whomever, I spoke with when I called ahead never mentioned the bread was frozen! In addition, the store looked like it n...
Wonderful breakfast food, great coffee, and you 'll never find it on Rt. 9. The tip-off is the sign on the right hand side of the northbound lane that reads Bakery and Eatery , which has led to my having real problems memorizing their name. Pro tip: the strategy is to eat one of their bountiful breakfasts, and only upon the conclusion should you move to the bakery counter to make your purchases. Reversing this will result in you transporting an obscene amount of their wonderful pastries and breads. They adhere strictly to their posted hours of business. And...this is one of the holdouts in this life that does not accept credit cards. Why should they have unwanted partners in their business,...
This is undoubtedly one of the best cakes I have ever tasted—definitely the best you can purchase! The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. The decorations are stunning, and the frosting is made with real buttercream, not the greasy variety that clings to the roof of your mouth and is overly sweet. I can't understand why anyone would choose a bakery item from a supermarket. If you're looking for a cake that tastes fantastic and looks beautiful, you should go to a professional bakery. It's well worth spending a little extra when shopping for someone you love or even just like!

Jeremy and Staff, I cannot thank you enough for everything you did for Luke's Celebration of Life. You went above and beyond for our family and me. I don't know if he ever told you, but Gamble's has always been our go to place for weddings, showers, Christmas, graduations or just to stop by for some cookies. My daughter even ships cookies and petit fours to me in Florida for holidays. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Donna Derway McCane
I have ordered cakes for large gatherings multiple times from Gambles Bakery, including cakes for birthdays, an anniversary celebration, and two life celebrations. Each time, Gambles has exceeded my expectations with their stunning cake designs! The cake and frosting are absolutely delicious! Thank you, Gambles!
This bakery is amazing! There Italian wedding cookies are the best I've ever had! They taste just like my grandmother's who is from Italy. They have an assortment of baked goods. Right now they are only open Fri and Sat 7am to 12pm. They also make birthday cakes.
Our favorite bakery!! They have so much yummy stuff, and the staff is wonderful! You might have a hard time picking out a moderate amount of stuff to get, because it's all so good!
