George's Market and Cafe
945 Watervliet Shaker Rd, Latham, NY
Crema's Take
“George's Market and Cafe is a charming hybrid spot where you can browse fresh local produce and flowers before settling in with a coffee and homemade pastry in a beautifully decorated space. The bakery is the real draw here—think yummy treats and that cozy cafe atmosphere perfect for lingering over a slow sit, though it's worth noting the kitchen keeps limited hours (9-3 weekdays) and focuses on simple comfort food rather than extensive lunch options. It's the kind of neighborhood gathering place where locals pop in for quality ingredients, a warm drink, and a slice of something sweet.”

My reviews are based on how dried out and unhealthy the plants look. No one greets you or offers assistance. When u do get assistance the only answer u get it i do not know. Atmosphere beautifully decorated.
This location no longer serves lunch food items and hasn't since covid. It is well-maintained, lovely inside and out, just not offering sandwiches. There is a bakery with yummy treats!.
Bought a pie had to toss it in the garbage top of crust was well done and hard,the crust same way filling had way to much cinnamon and even apples were hard couldn't even enjoy it or chew it! I been getting pies for years here always been flakey and good but idk this pie was way over baked waste my 20 bucks and now days that's a lot of money I'm just going order my Xmas pies somewhere else this year I can't take a chance like I did today .
The corn was fresh, large ears and we'll stocked. The rest of the many fresh vegetables and fruit were plentiful. I got apples, onions, corn and red peppers. All were delicious. I was good and didn't buy any of their pastries and boy was that hard to do with the smell of baking goodies in their oven while I was shopping. You won't be sorry I went.
This is a wonderful little shop and restaurant. Where else can you buy flowers, a little gift and have a grilled cheese sandwich followed by home made chocolate pie! The kitchen is open 9-3 Monday through Friday, but the store is open 9-5 all week. Chocolate pie available all the time! There is a small inside dining room with an outside covered seating area. On the side of the building the seating overlooks fields of flowers, beautiful! This is a great little stop for a friendly conversation great food and a little food. Highly recommend. I will return here.
