Review: The Gingered Peach (Bakery/Cafe)

So...long time no see! I didn't mean to be gone so long, but what else is new? It seems like every unplanned hiatus ends up totally derailing me. I should probably just accept that I have almost no energy to spare and when it gets absorbed in something out of the ordinary, I will not get to share fun blog posts. I don't want to accept it, but that's life. And this whole thing with the bus-and-car business turned out to be much more than I first thought it would be.

Anyway.

After the accident, feeling morose but wanting to take advantage of my rental car, I picked up a friend and we went to a bakery/cafe called the Gingered Peach in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. I'd been there before but my friend hadn't yet.

It is not a vegan bakery, but they have a lot of vegan options, as you can see from the above photo I snapped. The sign in front of the cookies up front is tilted so you can't read it here, but those are also vegan (rosemary lavender and ginger), and they have vegan cupcakes (not pictured). Plus, if you want coffee or tea, they have non-dairy milks to choose from, and they sell vegan chocolate bars.

I chose the vegan blueberry crumb bar. It was crowded, so we got it to go and went outside to have our snack.

It was delightful! It was very crumbly but that's truth in advertising, no?

This is not really a good place to go if you want someplace quiet to sit for a cup of tea or coffee and a snack, but it's nice for picking things up to grab and go. Overall, for vegans I give it a 3.5/5. (I will probably increase the rating if they ever start selling vegan scones.)
