The Gingerbread House

This restaurant is such a cute spot. We visited on December 21, 2024 and that place was super busy, plus we were told Santa was coming to visit that day as well. We called ahead of time to get the wait time and was told 15-20 minutes, but they got super busy on our hour travel and the wait was a little longer. Upon arriving we was just how beautifully the outside and inside was decorated. There were decorations all around the outside both in the lawn and on the buildings. The main building has a wrap around deck. You walk up the stairs onto the deck and then in one door which could be a waiting area that really is inviting. Then the next door has a small seating area for waiting on the left and on the right is the hostess area. Looking straight ahead is an open area that is open. There is also seating around the corner to the left straight ahead. To the right past the hostess station is the baked goodies and boy do they all look delicious! There is also seating upstairs and a cute little store. I went to check in and didn't happen the first time, in fact the guy that was standing there said he was not worried about me getting on the wait list only about everyone knowing that they were serving lunch at that point not breakfast. Not an ideal way to address the request. I then mentioned the list again and the young lady added me. We had been speaking with Tracy about our travel and calling ahead and she was so kind and helpful and told us about the history and I hope I am not incorrect when I say she said the restaurant has been open 17 years. (I can certainly see why!) When our table was ready she was quick to say we were not getting that table as my hubby is a little on the bigger side and she wanted us to really enjoy our experience as it was our first. We were seated upstairs at a table in a perfect spot. Our server was Bella and she truly had such a great attitude and was very knowledgeable. Her whole demeanor was kind and attentive. We ordered the Eggs Benedict with wedge fries, the Farmhouse Special with wedge fries and grilled Italian bread and the Cinnamon French Toast to-go. We also ordered a large cookie for my daughter in which Bella packed so nicely. The ham on the eggs benedict was so tender and tasteful. The sausage was cooked to perfection and the garlic bread was a perfect touch. The cinnamon French toast must have been delicious as well as it was gone before we got home. We didn't get utensils, but my girl just ripped and Dipped lol. Almost inhaling. I asked what the owners name was because she did allow us to order from the breakfast menu, she was genuinely kind and very handsome on with her business. Most of all I mentioned to one of the staff she seemed like a good owner to work for and without hesitation she agreed and said that Tracy is very good to her staff. That alone speaks volumes. Do appreciate your attentiveness to our visit and what we were in need of! I would absolutely recommend this restaurant for so many reasons.

While passing through we stopped and grabbed some baked good. We were told the scones were chocolate chip so we purchased 2 only to find out they were cranberry (lemon) and our girls would not eat them. We also ordered a mint chocolate chip cheesecake, flourless chocolate cake and one last item that looked good that had peanut butter. The staff was kind and fast. The restaurant was steady busy, but I was quickly tended to with a smile. Seems like a hot spot for breakfast and lunch.

This place is usually very busy during brunch. We arrived around 10:15 on a Sunday morning and was able to find a parking spot. What I like about this place is the cute decorations and ambience. Inside the restaurant it gets very loud so if you don't like loud places this would not be a good place for you. I've only gotten coffee here and never have eaten food other than baked goods. This time I ordered the farmers omelette and would say it was okay and would not order again. This place is pretty pricey and I would personally stick to the baked goods and the coffee. I ordered three omelette dishes, three lattes, one coffee and two donuts which came up to $98 with tip. Also the water comes in a bottled water for $2 each.In summary this place is great to meet up with friends or family and enjoy some tasty baked goods and a hot beverage. The decorations are so cute and the staff are very friendly.

What an adorable place! We were greeted by a chicken on the porch too. Walked in up to the counter to order some coffee and donuts to go. The cake donuts were 4th of July themed and the icing on them wasn't overly sweet! Half a donut was more than enough though. They also have a drive through, which we didn't notice but it was nice to go inside and check out the place. They have cakes which are decorated amazingly! Our coffees and hot chocolate were good, nothing over the top and we didn't wait too long for them.

This place has the most amazing designer cakes. Where they are made is beyond me as they are tooooo beautiful to cut!.The colors and ideas on their bakery is truly the one of the best in the area and I can say that as my family owned a bakery up north. The sandwich's, breakfast etc has tremendous flavor in the selections and you better be hungry when you order as you will get a large hot plate. The coffee menu is extensive and the cute bar and shop area on the second floor will make you feel that you stepped back in time in this restored. Farm (with live rosters walking around)As well being able to sit in a great old time setting. Get there early as they always fill up!!!.This is a food critics dream for excellence.

Another great cake from The Gingerbread House! This is my go to spot for custom orders. The Barbie cake purchased in March of 2024 was absolutely stunning and delicious!

Bakery is absolutely delightful! I order cakes from here all time for special occasions. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. My go to place for special order cakes. The lattes, are chef's kiss.

Thank you Tracy and your team! what a beautiful and delicious wedding cake and dessert tray from your shop. Can't thank you enough for accommodating on such short notice and delivering without issue. highly recommended! I hope my daughter and SIL head back to visit your shop soon! thank youMichelle from NJ09/13/2024

Wanted to treat myself to a treat today. Waited a very long time at the counter with only one man in front of me. I ordered a piece of carrot cake and Italian bread. I paid, the cashier took the money then got my items but no change. So I told her I wasn't given any change. More waiting. She walks away and talks to someone. Second girl comes up and gives me a receipt. I said yes this is what I purchased but I'm waiting for my change. She says Oh, mistakes happen! Unprofessional!Carrot cake was nothing like what I expected. The frosting on top had no sweetness and filing in the middle was sour tasting (cheesecake)?Very, very disappointed!Would not recommend

Love this place. Service is always good, food is great and bakery looks and tastes amazing. Usually Crowded but always worth it.
