Bark & Birch

Mar 2023

So far a great experience with Bark & Birch, and especially with their trainer Kristi Mallet in Long Beach. I trusted her with my lil guy Samwise (Sheepadoodle) who was just 4 months old. Every day Kristi would send me pictures and video updates/lessons that she would go over with my puppy. Would be a highlight of my day not only because I obviously missed my dog but also because I was happy to see him enjoying himself and learning a lot very quickly. At the end of his board and train Kristi came by to drop Sam off and it was really such a huge difference in his behavior. She really did a great job giving us instruction on how to really lay a good foundation with Sam’s...read full review

We were staying in Saratoga Springs and found this eatery while googling vegan food. For the most part I follow a pretty strict healthy plant base diet but when we are traveling I like to treat myself. Birch bark did not disappoint! I had the Caesar salad and my husband had the loaded Mac & cheese. Both meals were delicious. I had a fabulous raspberry lemonade that was so good I took it back to the hotel with me. We got donuts to go and they are SO good, don't leave the place without having one!! I also bought some reusable straws that come in a pouch, I always forget to take mine places so these are really go to come in handy. Service was wonderful and the place was clean, cute and roomy.

Wonderful vegan breakfast! It's not easy to find vegan food (especially breakfast) when we are traveling upstate. This was an oasis... the breakfast burrito was so delicious and satisfying. The coffee was great. The DONUTS were out of this world!! We got 4 to go, and they didn't last long- Boston cream, blueberry pancake, blueberry pie, and cinnamon roll. I've had vegan donuts from a relatively "famous" vegan donut maker downstate, and these were just as good if not better! Will definitely visit again next time we are in the area!
