Brimstone Bakery at Fenimore Art Museum

By Alexis Pencar

SHARON SPRINGS & COOPERSTOWN — Brimstone Bakery, in the Village of Sharon Springs, has recently expanded their offerings with a new location at the Fenimore Art Museum in Cooperstown!

This new location, in collaboration with Fenimore, will bring similar flavors and standards from the original Sharon Springs location with the addition of the stunning backdrop of Otsego Lake. You can plan to dine in at this gorgeous spot during a visit through the extensive art museum or even check it out on its own, not needing to pay admission to eat.

Chef Owner and Operator of Brimstone Bakery, Anthony Leberto said, "We've been really well-received and appreciated in Cooperstown. The new location has helped bolster our exposure with some guests visiting the Cooperstown location first, then searching us out in Sharon Springs.”

Brimstone Bakery at Fenimore Art Museum opened on Memorial Day weekend, May 24th, and has been busy non stop since! If you’d like to get the same Brimstone flavors but with a new view, you should make a trip of it! Currently offering delicious coffee, specialty drinks, baked goods, and most importantly a great lunch, there is something for everyone on the menu, including accommodating dietary restrictions. Both Brimstone locations also offer a variety of cookies, biscotti, brownies/blondies, and more!

If you come out for lunch, the menu typically changes based on the seasons, leaning towards healthy and lighter options, including their sandwiches & wraps, salads, and of course the famous quiche!

Starting back in 2018 this humble, yet evolved business has grown leaps and bounds with very supportive customers and community. The first and primary location on Chestnut Street in Sharon Springs, went from a small co-packer kitchen to a small cafe and now a full-blown restaurant with a second location, all as a true testament to excellence.

Don’t forget, Brimstone Bakery is also proud to offer catering for all occasions and budgets providing options previously unavailable or unattainable locally. Brimstone also has an online store too!

Chef Owner Anthony Leberto is an active and integral part of the Sharon Springs Community including his role as Vice President of the Sharon Springs Chamber of Commerce. Outside of creating delicious food, Leberto helps to positively contribute to his local community everyday.
