    Mayo pollock roe onioissant
    Orena W.

    We came here and got lucky to find a parking place. We ordered a ton of pastries and drinks. They were all very good my favorite was the mayo and pollock roe onissiont it was very flavorful creamy, flakey and crispy. I wish the sesame oat milk tea with a bit sweeter.

    The pollack roe crossaint was pretty good, which shocked me a little. The balanced flavor of the sauce and pollack roe, with the buttery of crossaint went really well together. The matcha einspanner was slightly disappointing, I think it might be a personal preference but I didn't like the taste of their matcha. It is a more grassy taste.

    Delicious desserts & lattes!! Service was good & ambiance was nice!! Take take credit cards, there's plenty of tables to sit & enjoy your snacks! A bit on the pricey side though!!

    After wanting to try this bakery for the longest time, I finally got the chance to try it recently. The inside of the cafe is huge, with tons of space for you to hang out with friends or chill and get some work done. I came to try the famous Dubai chocolate mochi and some drinks. The dubai chocolate mochi itself was alright. While the marshmallow portion was good, the pistachio/kataifi filling tasted very oily. I got the misugaru latte--which I wasn't a fan of--but my friends got their sparkling drinks, which we all thought were pretty good. Overall, I could be willing to give this cafe another chance (maybe I just chose bad items), but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

    Came and tried a bunch of desserts with a large group after having dinner next door, and we were all very satisfied! The setting of this cafe is HUGE, with multiple floors of seating; if I lived around here, I would definitely come hangout all the time! The onigiri croissant concoction the cafe sells is very uniqur and has a great texture; they all come with different fillings but are delicious! Also tried the Assam Milk Tea bingsoo, soft serve, and variois pastries, which all came out great!

    Cafe W is so delish! Went savoring and got the cheesy onion bread along with their famous cronigiri. The cronigiri was just as delicious as when I got it the first time, while the cheesy onion tart was not was I expected. Jammed packed with onions, and a Dijon type sauce covered in cheese. Not bad but not my fav. Glad I tried it, but maybe it needed to be heated or warmed for it to have full flavor potential. The strawberry earl grey iced tea was fire!!!! I need to grab it again. I also love the cool beverages/lattes they feature. I want to try a new drink every time I come here! Finally, I do love coming here to work. There's ample space with plenty to snack on while here.

    So I have been coming to Cafe W once every 1-2 months after I get a haircut, and the size of the croissant onigiri ($6.50) has progressively gotten smaller and smaller since I started coming a year ago. I get it since the economy has not been the best, but I was quite disappointed this time. It was around 30% smaller than it used to be AND the mayo pollack roe was empty. There was a tiny chunk of roe on the top so I know I didn't purchase the wrong item, but the inside had no filling at all! Just bread... Unfortunately, I don't see myself coming back here anymore.

    Raw salt bread

    While I have been a regular here, I feel like the professionalism of the staff has declined significantly. They look like they don't want to work there. Looks pissed off if you ask any questions. I asked for a recommendation for their fruity drinks. They said the grapefruit ade was the best seller. It tasted so bad, was definitely not worth the price. Ordered a black coffee with hazelnut, which was good. Biggest concern is, why did I get a salt bread that did not finish baking?! The inside of it was partially raw. The dough was still cold and stretchy/doughy. That's literally what they're known for, and charge an insane price for a pastry that doesn't require a lot of ingredients to make. Disappointed, don't think I'll be back.

    Came here with my boyfriend on a rainy Sunday evening after having had dinner in the area and craving something sweet! We were immediately drawn to how big the entire store was on the inside, and I loved that it was well lit but not overstimulating. We looked through their bakery selection and we wanted to try so many things! As it was raining outside, there weren't too many people in the cafe but the staff were friendly and attentive! He chose the Salted Bread with a topping that I forgot the name of, as well as a Custard Bun and the Dirty Chocolate Crumble Croissant. I chose a Blueberry Croissant and Black Sesame Croissant (pictures not shown), as well as the Earl Grey Cassis Mousse. I also ordered the Iced Black Sesame Latte and my bf ordered the Yuzu Mint Ade (not pictured but delicious!). We sat down with our drinks and ate the Salted Bread (which was delicious but super messy and kind of hard to eat but it was fun) and the Custard Bun (it was like a ginormous cream puff which was extremely filled with a nice and creamy but not overly sweet custard). We also ate the Earl Grey Cassis Mousse which was AMAZING! It was rich and creamy but not overly sweet, and although it looks small and the price looks hefty for its size, the taste was outstanding and it was definitely smart to share it with someone! The iced black sesame latte and yuzu mint ade were great thirst quenchers, and my boyfriend and I would definitely come back here!

    Dubai chocolate mochi
    Teresa C.

    I've only tried the Dubai chocolate mochi so far, but omg I'm completely addicted. I heard the chewy Dubai chocolate cookie was trending in Korea and there's a version of it at a bakery in the city that's a bit too sweet. Being a queens girl, I'm glad cafe w is making them. The texture is so fun! The outer layer is chewy and covered in a dark cocoa powder and the inside has kataifi mixed with pistachio cream. The best thing is that it's not too sweet. Hoping to try the salt bread next time since it was sold out when I visited.

    Saw a lot of about this place so was excited to swing by. Large space with two floors. Could easily fit large group hangouts or small study sessions. I was expecting the interior to be more elevated and aesthetically-enticing honestly, but it was a casual spot instead. The desserts were cute but nothing I'd rush back for. Good photo moment. Wish I had come in time for the Onigiri Croissants. They must sell out very early. Tip: all bakery items are 50% during the last hour! If I was more hungry, I definitely would've taken advantage of that great deal.

    Cafe W in Bayside is one of those Korean bakeries that clearly has the neighborhood's attention. Finding parking on Northern Boulevard or in their small lot can be a challenge, so be prepared to look elsewhere nearby. But once you're inside, you'll see why it's popular, the place was completely packed and buzzing with energy, even on a freezing cold day. The pastry case is loaded with tempting options, including the viral Dubai chewy cookie and all sorts of breads. We tried a few things: the salt bread was a highlight, light, fluffy, and perfectly savory. The French toast was another winner with a crispy edge and a nice dusting of cinnamon sugar. The chive and cream cheese bread was tasty, though absolutely packed with a lot of rich cream cheese. The much-talked-about Dubai chewy cookie was just alright for us. It was coated in so much cocoa powder that it was messy to eat, and we wished the pistachio flavor was stronger. We also tried a matcha latte, which was pretty standard, it didn't have a strong matcha taste and watered down quickly. Overall, Cafe W is a solid spot with some real pastry highs. If you're in the area, it's worth a visit for the excellent breads, but maybe temper your expectations for the trendier items and drinks.

    I was intrigued and stopped in to try their pastries and was shocked by the amount of goodies they have available. I think the Vanilla creme Cronigiri was a perfect pastry, not too heavy and not too sweet. I also got an iced latte and an iced matcha latte, which were okay nothing to write home about. The staff was friendly and even offered to bag my leftovers which I thought was a kind gesture. The cafe is quite spacious and plenty of room for seating even with groups. Excited to go back and try more of their pastries.

I am a fan of the pandan flavor desserts and bought two that I wanted to try. One being a roll cake and the other layer cake. The pandan roll cake with taro I was told is a specialty that they only have on weekends. It was really flavorful, moist and spongy, just perfectly touched with a dash of sweetness in both the cake and the cream - I personally don't like overly sweet foods, and this is just perfect for me and my mom. I'm equally pleased with the layer cake as well it was very fresh and have that "QQ" texture - deliciously chewy and bouncy. This too, just hit right for me on the gentle sweetness, the pandan flavor keeping the spotlight in this dessert. My mom and I are big fans of these desserts. We just came back trying out others pandan layer cakes in Downtown Flushing and this shop beats them by a large margin. I hope to come back more when we could even though this shop is quite a distance for us.

I walked into a clean, well lit space designed for quick selection rather than lingering, and the display cases were filled with brightly decorated cakes and pastries that looked consistently fresh. The mango based cakes are the most consistent thing here. I tried one and found it light, creamy, and built around fresh fruit rather than overly heavy frosting, which made it easy to finish even after a full meal. The matcha cake also worked well, leaning more milky than bitter, with a soft sponge that held its structure without feeling dry. The pork floss cakes are one of the more interesting savory sweet options, and they came out better than I expected since they did not go overboard on sweetness. The croissants and egg tarts are solid supporting items rather than the main reason to come. The croissant I had was flaky with a noticeable butter layer, and the egg tart was best eaten warm as the custard tightens up when cold. The purple rice desserts are heavier but work if I want something more filling and texturally different from the fruit cakes. Service was generally efficient even when the bakery was busy, and the staff moved through orders quickly. Prices sit a bit higher than older style Flushing bakeries, but the tradeoff is cleaner presentation, more modern flavor combinations, and consistently fresh looking cakes. For a modern bakery stop in Flushing, Shakalaka delivers on quality and visual appeal.

The bread part was fluffy, dense and didn't feel like an empty white flour situation.
