Bella-napoli Italian Bakery - LATHAM

Wow, this Italian bakery is incredible! I am absolutely in love with this place. It can get really busy, so make sure to grab a ticket as soon as you arrive before checking out all of the amazing treats they have. The line moves pretty quickly. Finding parking can be a little challenging, but it's definitely worth it to circle for a spot or walk a bit further. I only spent about $15 for 5 items.

The restaurant is simply amazing. We visited for the first time and were blown away by the 500+ options available. Despite the crowded atmosphere, the staff were efficient in serving customers. We took photos of the desserts to remember all the options we wanted to try. Within 15 minutes, our order was taken and all the desserts were brought to our table. It was quick and well-organized. I highly recommend trying the almond horns, they were delicious. Additionally, there is a small cafe where you can sit, enjoy a coffee, and order dessert. Make sure to check out the pictures I took, they perfectly capture the essence of Napoli.

Our family has been picking up our cannoli, Sfogliatella, and bread at Bella Napoli for decades, likely since they opened in 1965. During a recent trip to the Albany area to visit family, we stopped in twice and also really enjoyed the Italian hoagies and breakfast sandwiches. The bread is delicious, with sharp provolone. The blueberry powdered jelly donut was so fluffy and delicious that my intention to only eat half was quickly abandoned. The limoncello and pistachio cannoli were delightfully delicious. A pro tip from our grandma: wrap the pastries you don't eat in paper towels or napkins, and they will stay fresh in the fridge for a few days, allowing you to extend your enjoyment of the box you'll surely fill to share with friends and family.

Heard some really good things about this place. We drove 2 hours and 45 minutes to try it for ourselves. So worth the drive. I wanted to try the Cannoli. They are amazing!!! The Rum Ba Ba were tasty and the Raspberry Cheesecake is out of this world. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be taking the drive again, real soon.

Absolutely amazing! Everything we chose was delicious and there are SO MANY options! I was surprised that they even had a deli. The only thing they need is gelato and the Italian dessert experience would be complete. My favorite part was the variety of cannolis
