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.
