Recently visited the bakery on a Wednesday evening 30 mins to closing and had a wonderful experience. The staff were patient, did not try to rush us or any patrons in the lobby. The restaurant itself self gives a good southern granny vibe so I have high expectations for the baked goods. For starters the Chocolate cake was phenomenal very moist, not overly rich and made you want another. I also had a couple of cupcakes, and a pecan bar. Those items were good but nothing to rave about. I have since heard they do milkshakes so interested in giving them a try. The menu is so expansive I didn't even see that listed but it is a bit overwhelming. read more

Amoroso's Bakery - Exterior - Desserts Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

This is a cute and clean little bakery in town. Conveniently located, easy parking, and tons of options and flavors to choose from! It would be a great place to set up shop and get a little work done, too. One of my favorite parts about the atmosphere here is that it's extremely cozy, almost like you're at home in your own living room. The staff is friendly, too! I had a hankering for a cupcake (or 3!) so I got the Strawberry, Banana Pudding, and Toffee Caramel Crunch. Very tasty! Rich, of course, but flavorful. The only reason I'm giving 4/5 is that my socks weren't blow off. I feel like I've had better pastries at other bakeries in town but this is certainly a solid option! I will definitely be back to try more! read more

I loved the space in this location. There is ample room to walk around and if you decide to hang around eat your dessert they have tables/chairs. I loved the variety of their selections. They had some really tasty looking cakes on display. I saw cookies, bone bones, lemon bars, turnovers, etc. I liked their pricing is listed on their back walls. I decided on cupcakes today. I chose three. I am actually regretting not getting four. The cashier/server was very friendly. She asked about packaging before she did it, which was thoughtful. I got vanilla, cookies and cream and deep chocolate cupcakes. My kids loved the vanilla and cookies and cream. I throughly enjoyed the deep chocolate. It was so rich, moist and delicious. I also tried their oatmeal cookie. So good! I will definitely return! read more

We found Amoroso's Bakery after trying a few other places that were recommended as the popular places but even after 5-6 visits enduring long lines with dry cakes and cupcakes., we decided to search for something better. We have been to Amoroso's 7-8 times now, over the past year and are really enjoying the treats! The cakes and cupcakes are delicious, moist, and flavorful! We've also special ordered cakes and they are similar in price to the other bakeries that just don't deliver the same quality as Amoroso's. read more

I have never ordered something I did not like from here. They have the best cinnamon rolls around! Everyone is always very friendly and the decor is very cute! Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

Very friendly small town feel bakery. Love the selection they have, and the comfortable space to enjoy your sweet tooth cravings. You can custom order cakes. Or buy a slice to go. In addition to sweets, they have a great variety of coffees. Convenient location! P.s. Get a cookie, they are delicious. . read more

The cakes and other desserts are always fresh and plentiful. I've always been greeted with a smile & quick service. Usually I'm stopping in when traveling through Greensboro. Next I will sit inside and eat a slice because the interior is quiet and clean. read more

Swung by this bakery real quick to see if they had a certain cake. Spoiler: they didn't. So I just caved and got a slice of their key lime cheesecake. Asked if they had anything gluten-free, and the girl behind the counter basically whispered her response into another dimension. I caught something like "peanut butter bar" and she pointed vaguely across the room, so... cool, I guess? Dropped $7 on the cake, asked for a fork, and she hits me with, "they're over there", and gestures into the void. Anyway, I grabbed the fork like I'm on a sidequest. The key lime cheesecake? Mid. Not mad about it, just... yeah. It did its job. read more

The best bakery! We were driving in from out of town and my friend called ahead to see if they could prepare "gender reveal cupcakes" for us to pick up when we arrived. They were so accommodating and so kind. The cupcakes were DELICIOUS. Thanks so much for helping us out read more

This bakery is right below my job, I had a craving for something sweet and googled bakeries near me. I'm so glad I decided to give it a try. The bakery was very clean and inviting.

I will Definitely be returning for more sweet treats! read more

I had the pineapple cake which was extremely disappointing. It was just vanilla cake with plain buttercream. Didn't have the slightest flavor of pineapple. The cake was a little dry and the buttercream was just average. Overpriced and underwhelming. read more

I'm so glad we stumbled across this place when we visited Greensboro it's a little off the beaten path but definitely worth going out of the way try it. They have several choices of delicious treats to choose from. Cupcakes, cakes , cheesecake and the list goes on. Staff was friendly and we were able to dine in prices were very reasonable . The apple spice cake was my favorite , my dad enjoyed the cheesecake and the kids loved their cupcakes and I am definitely looking forward to trying some other treats . read more

I used to frequent this bakery at the previous location in Highpoint, when I lived in NC. Everyone there was extremely nice and pleasant and the pastries were great. Now, not so much at the new location on Guilford College. I try to stop by when I'm in town and there is this one woman in there that is so dreadful and unpleasant. I gave her a pass the first time and chucked it up to her possibly having a bad day, but when I visited a few months later she had the same attitude as if she had better things to do than service customers. Their pastries aren't as fresh anymore, but the real reason I will never go back is because of that woman. I refuse to patron and spend money where it's not appreciated!! Should you decide to go anyway after this review, you can't miss her, she is the woman with the stand-off'ish nasty attitude! read more

I purchased slices of German chocolate cake and strawberry red velvet, absolutely fresh and delicious! I ordered online, and my order was ready as scheduled. Greeted with a smile. Staff was very friendly. Large display of cupcakes. The store has eat-in areas, pleasant decor and ambiance. I will definitely make this my go to establishment. They are conveniently located near CVS, HARRIS TEETER and Wells Fargo. read more

I was in the need of something sweet. I saw this donut place and thought about stopping there, but then I decided on cupcakes. I located this place on Yelp and decided to try. I brought 4 cupcakes and they are pretty expensive, I paid $14 something for them. I think their $3.49 or something for one. I can't remember which one I'm eating now ... I think it sweet potatoes idk. Anyway the cupcake is moist but not all that. I just don't like that the icing is hard, that's a no no to me. In my opinion, it's not worth the price. I saw this green thing at the end. read more

Cute bakery with a variety of sweets to choose from! Amoroso's strawberry red velvet cake is so good - it's been my birthday dessert of choice multiple times and it never disappoints. Today I tried their hummingbird cupcake and it, too, was delicious. It tasted more like banana bread and less pineapple-y than other hummingbird cakes I've tried, but I thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless. The women working there were incredibly friendly and helpful. read more

The best! Our favorites are the cannoli and banana pudding cupcakes. Always friendly service too! The bakery is always very clean.

Delicious bakery a little pricey one young women was not friendly one time I came in early in the morning she was stand offish

Amoroso's Bakery is always a solid choice for your sweet tooth cravings! Having gone to their other location over the years, I was surprised and happy at this location popping up on my phone! Their cakes are to die for, although the smaller version in cupcake form is nice too! Their cheesecakes are good, but there's a more credible version in town that I appreciate more. Last night I tried a Haystack that was good, but it was a bit hard to bite through which I'm not into doing for a dessert. The Butter Pecan cake was absolutely insane! Extremely moist, tons of pecans, and a rich icing that just tops off the experience! read more

I've lived down the street from this place for three years and finally started going in a few weeks ago as a weekend treat to myself and it's great. The inside is charming and clean, the people working there are friendly and helpful. The prices are great. So far I've had the chess bar, magic bar, and cornflake cookie- all excellent. The chess bar is sweet and rich without being too sweet, the magic bar was chewy and full of coconut flavor (and a pretty huge portion), and the cornflake cookies is salty and sweet, with gooey marshmallow and chocolaty chunks. Definitely a favorite. read more

Cute bakery. I loved the layout. The girl working as friendly and helpful. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted. My husband got the key lime cheesecake and I decided to get the cookies and cream cheesecake as well as a cupcake for a friend. My husband thought his cheesecake was ok. Mine was also ok. The flavor was good but I wish the cheesecake was more softer. I do like that they have a nice arrangement of cookies and cupcakes and slices of cake as well. read more

Just save yourself the drive . I wish I could give negative stars. I walked into the bakery as another customer perused the baked goods. He and the young lady were discussing the temperature of the cupcakes. A few minutes later the customer left (while I looked to see if the item I wanted was available). At the time, I was the only customer in the store. As I approached the young lady at the cash register just looked at me. No, "hello, can I help you?"or anything. I asked for a cupcake that they apparently didn't carry and she said, "no, that's not here." Normally, I would've done an about-face because poor customer service is such a deal breaker for me. However, these particular cupcakes were requested from a friend so I suffered through. Just when I thought maybe this lady is rude to everyone a white customer came in and she smiled and spoke to him like a human being. He asked a question and she pleasantly responded . At some point my cupcakes were packaged and sitting on the counter (I turned my back to control myself). The rude wench never said anything, not , "Here you go miss, here's your cupcakes" again nothing. When she gave me my change she tossed it across the counter. I was SOO close to losing my cool and throwing the money and cupcakes in her face. As soon as I was about to risk it all a sweet kid by the name of Caleb (he may have been the child of a staff member) asked if I wanted to see his lego structure. I engaged the sweet kid for a moment before I left. Little Caleb- thank you! Cashier at Amorosos Bakery go to hell. * Bakery owner I implore you, if you only want a particular clientele/demographic and others are not welcome, please just hang a confederate flag or something. If this is not the sentiment of the owners DO NOT EVER put Katie P. at the front again. I will never step foot in this place again and I'm sharing my experience with anyone that will listen. read more

Recently I came in to get an assortment of cupcakes for my husband's 50th birthday. I especially needed to get some that were not dark chocolate-based and was pleasantly surprised by the selection of cupcakes to choose from. They were all moist and delicious. Because they were large cupcakes we decided to cut them all in quarters. Therefore, everyone at the party could have a little bit of each. The favorites were the cannoli, strawberry, pink lemonade, and chocolate Bavarian. The overall winner seemed to be the German chocolate. The consensus was that it was rich and very moist. Although some people may think $3.50 might be a bit much for a cupcake. These are large cupcakes and very good to eat. I would recommend this bakery. read more

I came in before closing and was overwhelmed with all of the options but picked a couple of winners to take home. I'm not a very big sweets person, like I wouldn't have ever come here of my own volition, but since I found myself here, I just had to test a couple of safe bets. The counter girls were so kind and helpful. I went with the German Chocolate Cupcake and a slice of Blueberry Cheesecake for my wife. My wife's cheesecake tasted great. It seems like it's a sour cream base instead of cream cheese, I could be wrong, but it just had a flavor that would be excellent if there was a sweet fruit topping smothering it, so next time we'll get some topping put on it. My cupcake on the other hand: OUT. OF. THIS. WORLD. Like I said, I don't have a sweet tooth, but holy guacamole I INHALED my cupcake. I could never work here because I'd be eating the frosting out of a tub all day. I'm scared knowing that these sweet chocolate delicacies are sitting behind glass only a 5 minute drive away from home. Maybe I should just walk here from now on to counteract the effects of the sweets. read more

Lemon Tart wasn't lemony or tart Staff were not wearing mask. Apparently no Covid-19 adherence. No mask no me as a customer.

The cupcake are wonderful , the service is horrible. I was the only one in the store and was basically grunted at by the clearly unhappy employee. She was rude , surly and unhelpful. Please train your people that the customers make the business so maybe try to muster a smile and be helpful not rude. read more

On Oct. 22 2020 I decided to stop in a grab some desserts. I walked in to see the employees wearing masks and a customer as well. The customer left with her order. I started to order and two more customers came in without wearing mask. I gave the employee time to request the new customers to don a mask. Nothing happened. I turned around and walked out. I was trying to support local businesses but i will place myself in jeopardy. read more

worker was rude and dismissive. she also ignored multiple customers and was in the back the whole entire time.

I've been here a couple times and both times I've enjoyed the baked goods. Their staff is always impeccably polite and gracious. I wish they opened at 8 am, so I could get breakfast there before work. I would definitely recommend the eclairs and cookies. Perfect place to get a snack or something tasty for the ones you care about. read more

Can't beat there cupcakes! It's not just that they are super Fresh. The variety they offer is exceptional.

Wow! One of the best cakes I've ever tasted. We bought one of their "premium" cakes, coconut, for Christmas Eve dinner and it was out of this world. The "premium" cakes are their most expensive but are worth every penny. Prices are in line with other specialty bakeries. Highly recommended for that special dessert. read more
