    Fly was inside my coffee
    Wanda A.

    I've been to this bakery a few times, the first time I had a very pleasant lady who was super nice to me but the last threes times, including today I had the same lady serve me. She always seems to have an attitude when I'm there, never smiles or even bother to look at me when I'm ordering. I don't know if is because of the color of my skin but to me it seems like it bother's her to serve me. Today I told myself that I will never return because of that lady, as I was driving away I open my coffee to let it cool off because and I find a dead fly swimming in my coffee. A coincidence, I don't know either way it's gross and I will never go back again!

    Stale!!!!! Donuts

    Drove a whole 12 min because I was craving donuts. I went almost closing. I brought all 7 of the plum filling donuts that was left in the shelf. I came home to eat stale donuts. Disappointed!

    Bread. Not flakey babka. Come on! Not good. Lazy.

    The babka here is terrible! Will post a photo for you all to see...it is just a loaf bred with a little chocolate inside. No swirls. Not flakey. Not buttery. Compare my photo to every photo on google search. I made a surprise emergency stop when I saw the name because I love babka...it should have been a sign when I asked the lady who worked there if the Babka was amazing for its namesake. She said "sure." That was an overstatement. The apple turnover wasn't great either, but I would at least give that 3 stars. The aesthetic was very cute. That's the best I've got to say. BUT THE BABKA! It is called the babka shop! Go anywhere in south Williamsburg...just don't come here.

    hands down, best donut in 20 years.....still warm... incredible

    best bread in the hood, hands down. they can keep the babka and i will keep the donuts. best donuts in 10 years.

    Very cute spot. I couldn't find anywhere to get a latte in Maspeth but then I stumbled across this place. It has really good coffee and they bake all of their pastries on site. I will be back here for sure.

    We stopped by here for dessert since it was my birthday and close to the restaurant we celebrated…read moremy birthday at. We got the ube flan, ube Madeline's, ube cookie. We loved all 3! My husband and myself are particularly in returning to get their ube flan. It was amazing! Beautiful space! Service took a while but not too bad bc it's just one counter and only two person working at that time.

    3.5 stars. TLDR - good service, but iffy about the food (maybe we came too late)…read more.. $7 - mini flans (ube, coconut pandan, mango, thai tea) $10 - "bigger" flan (ube only) $30 - 7 inch flan cake (ube only) $50 - 9 inch flan cake (pre-order only) $12 - halo halo $5 - various iced drinks, boba, lattes $3 - madelines (for 3 pcs) The drinks were a little too sweet for my liking (we got the lemonade). They are famous for their flan cake mix. The ones in the cooler were just alright. The flan was more of a custard texture (away from jiggly jello) which was good. However, the bottom cake layers had subtle flavors and were a bit stale. The flan tastes better when its fresh and not refrigerated though. Compared to other customer's pictures, I think the issue was that there was not much caramel sauce on the plate. there was not much liquid on the bottom of the plate so the cakes did not look moist for most of our flans. The halo halo was a bit small in size for $12 (jar is similar to a overnight oats serving size). ive seen other places price it at $8-10 for that size. Overall, it was a miss for me for my first time. Service was nice though. they did let us stay 20 mins past closing.

    My husband and I stumbled upon this spot with some friends that were looking for breakfast. We…read moreweren't planning to eat anything, but the donuts looked so good, we had to get some. We shared: - Mango Passion Donut - La Donna (Raspberry & Black Currant) Donut - Calamansi Meringue Donut They were all fantastic. I couldn't pick a favorite because I loved them all. I'd say these are in the top 5 donuts that I've ever had. I was trying to have a slight amount of self control, but there were at least 3 more that I wanted to try. If I lived nearby, I'd be here all the time. Do yourself a favor and give them a try.

    I enjoy Fan Fan Doughnut. I had the coffee donut on Donut Day and it was so fluffy…read more This donut is not chewy at all. It's colossally big and very, very easy to chew on without needing something hot and wet like coffee or tea. But I do think it would be better with a drink. What I've also noticed is that they really prioritize the decorations on the donuts, and I think that also brings out their peak service. I was served during the Governors Ball where there were a lot of people and a lot of vendors. They handled their service very well. I couldn't tell you the exact location of the place because it was a vendor, but I assume it's probably somewhere I would conveniently go to. I definitely wanna go to the Brooklyn location.

Four generations of the same family have been bringing us manna from heaven for a hundred years! What can I say, they're the real deal. Literally everything here is amazing.

Excellent service by people who love their customers and make you feel like you've come home - because you have! Love this place.

Prices are no longer shown on the fridges (paying cash is cheaper) They switched the selections of cakes and cupcakes to the other side from the individual cookies and other pastries. New selections of muffins and donuts The staff were helpful but I felt like it was tedious to ask for the price of each item. The cakes are usually ranging from $26 and up. DO NOT GET THE CUPCAKES, it taste like the supermarket cupcakes from stop and shop, walmart, or shop rite. It tastes like hint of cleaning supply, fake sweetness gritty textured icing. Try the cannoli, though the casing doesnt look like it's homemade. Apparently their filling is and they fill it per order which helps retain the crunch of the casing. We have tried a few cakes: strawberry shorcake, oreo cake, and chocolate mousse cake which is not bad for its price.
