Carl Crysler Review of St. Peter's Bakery

Late 1800s general store overlooking the Falls at French Creek repurposed as a quality Bakery. I visit for a relaxed coffee and breakfast of toasted apple/walnut bread, tasty croissants which sell out fast, or a large slice of quiche of interesting and complementary ingredients. My coffee and lunch consists of the multigrain bread stuffed with blackforest ham, cheese, tomato, and romaine, with the honey mustard on the side, for mustard quantities vary by the individual. An added treat is the fresh sliced fruit (breakfast) or fresh baby green salad (lunch) on the side for entree-like orders. We have yet to attend the Friday evening homestyle pizza and music events, but friends have said we are missing out, so much so that reservations are required to accommodate capacity Friday nights.
One will find a richness of taste and texture in this Bakery that I have not found in other bakeries across the country. Hand-made quality ingredients have a natural sweetness. Thus, their products are rich in taste, but not overly sweet. Some have said the prices are a little high, but as a home baker of breads, pies, and cookies for charitable events who has costed out ingredients and labor, St Peters Bakery prices are very reasonable. I would recommend the triple ginger, oatmeal, and cowboy cookies, and any of the pies (my blueberry and apple pies are slightly better of course, although the Bakery has excellent variations thereof). The double chocolate cake and the fruit tarts are real crowd pleasers, and friends/relatives ask us to bring more of these when we travel.
