The best thing about Egger's Ice Cream Parlor on Forest Avenue is its historic presence at that…read morelocation for over 90 years (1932). It is surely a community fixture with generations of families stopping by to celebrate the best things in their lives with homemade ice cream and an assortment of candy in dozens of glass jars along one wall. I admit to stopping in after an epic brunch at a nearby Greek diner, and to being too stuffed to dive into their flavors of the week 'screams. My friend was not as disciplined as I, so she ordered a cup of some chocolate peanut butter which she kvelled over. Apparently, they also had an orange long stringy confection that she wanted for later indulgence. All very cool, but she isn't diabetic. The ambiance of Egger's is definitely mid-twentieth century, and could use a fresh coat of paint to brighten the joint up a bit. Maybe better lighting, too. Otherwise, growing up in the City (Washington Heights) in the same era, this malt shop/candy emporium with long counter and spinners brought fond memories of my childhood flooding back. That, my friends, is always a very good moment. Four Sugary Super Sundae Stars. Those were the days!

Stopped in for a summer treat after a long day out hoping they wouldn't be too busy and I'm so…read morehappy we did. Egger's is a classic with a good variety and selection of flavors. They have the classic ice cream diner experience with candy, sweet treats, and counter with bar stools. It's well worth the price and the flavors are exceptionally tasty!

She brewed a very fresh batch of decaff and expertly made me my drink. It was delicious and exactly what I needed on that cold afternoon. I'm traveling and Giada gave me suggestions of nice places to visit that are not in Manhattan. She also knew the bus I was looking for next and let me know when I needed to step back out into the cold. I recommend this tiny café highly; delicious hot drinks and the kind of community feel we need. This tiny café is owned by an industrious 18-year-old entrepreneur!

My family has been ordering cakes from Renato's bakery for over five years. We've always had a…read moregreat experience and the cakes have been delicious, moist, and flavorful. However, our most recent experience was incredible. My siblings and I had a miscommunication and realized we did not have a cake for my mother's birthday. I called Renatos on Saturday 7/17 at 8:30am and requested a cake. Pina, was the woman who helped me. She was pleasant, knowledgeable, and incredibly professional. My sister and I were both so pleased at the excellent customer service. The cake was ready within 2 hours and was perfect. When I went to pick it up, Pina helped me in store. She was so kind! Not only did she help me place the order, but she helped to carry the cake outside to my car. Just phenomenal customer service! If you're looking for a cake, I can't recommend Renato's enough! Thank you Pina for being so wonderful!

I prefer dense rainbow cookies. We got a cannoli and that was really good. Crispy and filling not too sweet. The crumb cake was not good, tasted stale, and had a weird maybe fake vanilla taste to it. It was just not moist and dense or anything. It was very light and dry. The woman there was friendly and patient as we decided what to get. There is parking in the back lot.

Whole wheat sour dough on the side. Ricotta pretty much has no taste so the omelette was bland - not their fault. Bacon was good. Bread was amazing. This is kind of self service where you have to order your meal on the bakery side and pay. You get a number for the table. You take your own plastic cutlery, napkins etc. you have to ask for butter. They have an amazing menu. I'd go back for lunch but the bakery selection is still my favorite part!!

The vote for breakfast was McMuffins, but when I went to McDonald's the prices were crazy (maybe I'm just getting stingy?), so I went across the parking lot to this gem.

I order a dozen donuts, and they give me an extra dozen on the house because I mentioned I was feeding a large group!
