The Fifth Tier Baking Studio

We've been here fairly consistently since they opened in Wynantskill (never visited Albany location prior). I love their biscotti-not too dry that you have to dunk it and a nice variety of flavors. If they have GB biscotti, I'm not aware as the ones I select are not. I don't seem to have too many issues with them (gluten sensitive). Scones are nice as well. Again, not too dry nor too wet. Soups-have had a few, 15 bean and Veg are my favorites! Oh, and chili! Coffee-I'm not a dark coffee fan so I tend to get lattes and theirs are good. Harney and Sons teas. GF brownie with ganache is very good, don't let the GF deter you! I'm not a quiche fan but have had a few which I have liked. Nice atmosphere with booths, tables and sofa seating. Decor is comfortable with lots of plants. Good sized single rest room (helpful with kids). Parking out front limited but there's a lot in the back with outdoor seating. Always friendly service! Pics are of a quiche, scone and veg soup.

Cozy vibes and friendly staff. Scones and cookies are HUGE for their price and also delicious. Best cinnamon rolls in the Capital Region!

**Updated** I've been a bunch more times and the food has been fantastic every single time so they must have worked all the initial kinks out! Yay! My only complaint is that they are inconsistent about posting their daily selection. I've gone there on Friday to get quiche and it's sold out at 12:30pm. I go Saturday and it's not one I want. I could look online first, but you never know when they will post the days menu or what time the quiche and soup will be available. I'd love to be able to plan to go to lunch there or get lunch to go but it's hard to plan when you never know when it's ready and what it will be. ‐----‐-‐------------------------------------------ Food is good, but out of the 3 times I've gone there, twice they didn't give me something I ordered (I wasn't charged for it - the counter person just failed to add it to my bag) and another time my scone tasted like a salt bomb in one big section. It must not have been mixed very well and I was unlucky enough to get the salt intended for the entire batch lol. However, the decor is fantastic, the staff is so friendly and the location is awesome. I'll give it a few more tries and hope that the errors are resolved with time.
