What makes this Westchester bakery the best for Thanksgiving pies

It's the sights, smells, tastes and sense of nostalgia that make Galloway's Bakery in Scarsdale special. This third-generation bakery, which dates to the late 1940s and is run by the founder's granddaughter, Shannon Galloway, is pretty much exactly as it's always been, which Galloway said is key to its success. (For the record, the website says 1956, but Galloway said she found evidence it was earlier.) "We're plain and simple," she said. "Everything is made by hand. And because we've never branched out, we've stuck to what we do best." That means pies — lots of them, from cherry to coconut to chocolate cream — alongside cakes, cookies, doughnuts, breads, buns and Danish rings. The bakery, which started as a luncheonette in Bronxville before segueing to a spot in Hartsdale, takes pride in keeping to its origins. Ads from The Bronxville Reporter dating to 1952, in fact, list the exact pies that are sold now, among them deep dish apple, chocolate cream and lemon meringue.

Six Westchester Diners Where Regulars Still Know Your Order After Thirty Years

Some diners serve breakfast. Others serve the same breakfast to the same people for decades, and the staff can tell when you want your eggs a little different today. Westchester County is lucky to have a handful of these places, spread from the Sound Shore to the Hudson River towns. A few have been around since the 1930s and 1970s, while others have built followings of guests who have been sliding into the same booths for thirty, forty, even fifty years.
