The cookies, pastries, bread etc are all stale or not properly cooked. The French name makes it sound like a fine bakery of France. Not so. Avoid unless you consider Chips Ahoy luxury baking. read more

$2 for a cup of tap water, FYI. We go often because my 3rd-grader happens to love their hand-painted sugar cookies. Everything we have tried is just ok at best. It all LOOKS wonderful. But so far -- the lace cookie: kind of tough and tasteless, the teeny lemon meringue pie tasted like it was made from a boxed mix, the brownie was a supermarket-type frosted one with a poor-quality chocolate taste. Tried a bear claw recently and no real almond taste, way too big and tough. The prices are very high for what you get. I would be happy to pay for something exquisite, but nothing has been worth it. There is no depth to the flavors, just a sugar rush and tough crusts. I have not tried the cakes and several people have raved about them, so maybe that is a better chance than the really underwhelming cookies and pastries. There is very little in the way of competition nearby, so they have little reason to up their game. And it's always busy anyway. read more

I live in the area and go to Messina Market (same owners as the bakery) all the time. I have never had a problem with the bakery when ordering a cake for a birthday or holiday- they have always been delicious and perfect. This time around I needed to order a cake for my wedding and wanted to do a tasting/figure out what my cake would look like. When I called the bakery for an appointment they referred me to the owner, Dani. This is when it all went down hill. We had a lot of disconnects in our emails- I would tell him that one specific date did not work for me and he would mindlessly answer 'that date works, what time'. That same thing happened for about three emails. I thought I was on MTV's show Punked. Finally I told him to please call me because apparently communicating via emails was not working. I continued to be positive with Dani even though I should have dropped him at that point because of how unprofessional he was and how blatantly obvious it was that he didn't care about my business in the slightest. The day of the tasting came and I showed up at the bakery with my Dad at 3pm which was the time of our appointment. I told the girls behind the counter that we were here to see Dani. They told me that he was 'at a cake tasting next door' (which seemed odd considering our appointment was at 3pm, but I was still continuing to be positive). 15 minutes went by and we were standing there like idiots waiting for him. I went up to the girl behind the counter again and reminded her why we were standing there and she responded 'Oh! I have to call him and let him know you are here'. After 20mins no sign of Dani and the girl took over the tasting and brought over some flavors for us to try. I emailed Dani the night before requesting 2 flavors and when one of them wasn't there the day of the tasting the girl said 'these are what you asked for; you only get to try four flavors'. (We even offered to pay her to give us a sample of what I had asked for-ridiculous). I asked her if she would like to see the email I sent him to show what i did in fact ask for, and with an attitude she walked away and brought it for us. After five minutes, still no update on where Dani was and we realized how stupid of us it would be to give money to an establishment that has been so rude to us so we walked out. That was four days ago at this point and I have not received a call or an email from Dani as to why he wasn't there (I can't say I am surprised). Like I said in the beginning, the bakery is really good and ordering a cake for a normal occasion has never been a problem, but once you deal with Dani it is more than a nightmare. read more

This is a super cute bakery located right on the waterfront. Everything - and I mean everything - is beautiful in this store. If you've got the time to sit there is a small seating area inside. Pre-made sandwiches are also available. A small cup of coffee is $2. Ask for pricing on bread and baked goods. A menu is available for ordered items. read more

La Bonne Boulangerie made the cake for my wedding last weekend at Giorgio's and not only was it beautiful it was DELICIOUS! Corey was great with working with my husband and I to finalize a style and pick out our cake flavors. The cake was more beautiful than I could ever imagine and it was delicious. The fillings were amazing and the fondant was tasty too! I'm not a big cake person but this cake was unbelievable. Everyone is still raving about it and I am excited to dig into my top tier again this weekend (my husband and I already dug into it last week after the wedding!). Thank you so much to Corey and the rest of the team at LA Bonne Boulangerie for making such a beautiful cake for my wedding! read more

I am so happy with how my wedding cake came out! The bakery did such a beautiful job and they delivered exactly what was requested. We stayed with basic chocolate and vanilla cake with chocolate fudge filling and vanilla custard. I am not a huge fan of overly sweet desserts and this cake was not overly sweet! The cake was perfect! read more

La Bonne Boulangerie got the colors of my wedding cake horrifically wrong. 3 stars because it tasted good, and it was delivered on time. I hated however the LIME GREEN flowers, the bakery missed the beautiful sage directed. The white styrofoam ball topper was also actually VERY visible. This bakery cheapened on the sugar flowers which were supposed to be tightly grouped!!! It looked like a kid's cake and a wedding heartbreak. I met them at a vendor show and visited the bakery, I was confident this simple cake was something they could take on, but ///-; not having a cake would've made for a finer presentation. //-: the cake was aesthetically terrible. read more

They saved us big time! A different bakery in queens ended up botching the order with a week before my son's bday party and LBB was recommended to us and saved the day. Told us they would make the cake without hesitation. Cake came out great and got tons of compliments on the taste. While my kids only 3 and will likely not remember this bday in particular. My wife who dealt with this entire process will be forever grateful. They will have our business for years to come, no questions asked. read more

This place is amazing! The girls behind the counter Angela and Maggie are fabulous. This place is run like a Rolex they don't miss a beat. It is hard to chose one cake but as they seem to always change it up I tend to try what the girls recommend. The sister cafe Messina is just as good. Make sure you have Ramon make you an omelette he is one of a kind. The owners are attentive and both places are spotless. read more

Omg!!!! The cake was delicious!! So fresh and delicouse. We got many compliments. And decorated beautifully!

Went there for the first time, spent $56.00 on 2 slices of carrot cake, 2 apple turnovers, plain cheesecake and a lemon meringue pie. Never again! Carrot cake was bland and boring...no flavor, meringue was crunchy and crumbled apart..loaded with sugar, made my teeth ache! Turnovers were dry as dust, minimal, if any, apples... and the cheesecake was hard and tasteless. A least something good to say?... no, nothing! Horrible! read more

I visited this bakery on Thanksgiving morning, scrambling for quality treats to bring to dinner. When i arrived, the lady behind the counter saw that I was visibly perplexed, and asked if I needed help. I explained my situation, and asked for her advice on what a good pastry choice would be. Without hesitation, she described the different seasonal offerings they had, including Thanksgiving-themed cookies in a chocolate cornucopia. I ended up selecting that option, for a reasonable $20. I really enjoyed my experience, mainly because the service and quality were top-notch. My advice to any potential visitors is to ask the staff about their recommendations, since they're really honest and straightforward. Simply put, give this place a chance, and you won't regret it! read more

I went here for my wedding cake because my venue had worked with them previously and recommended them. They exceeded my expectations and beyond! Angela worked with me to create the wedding cake of my dreams. Not only was the cake delicious, but it was also a beautiful piece of art that was on display throughout my entire wedding. Thanks so much!!! read more

Simply, this place is amazing. I couldn't have better things to say. I went into a few other bakeries in search of a cake for my fiancé's 30th birthday party and was so disappointed in the rudeness of the people I spoke to and excessive costs for what I was looking for. I went in to LBB and met Angela and her daughter Sarah who were both as sweet as could be and helped me come up with the perfect cake. They by far exceeded my expectations, the cake looked a million times better than the Pinterest photo I had shared with them. Not to mention, the red velvet was absolutely delicious! It came out so perfect and was a total hit at the party! I would highly recommend this place to anyone! read more

La Bonne Boulangerie gets an A+ in my book! I was hosting a baby shower for my sister and decided I wanted a dessert table last minute. I wanted cake pops, bib cookies etc... I ended up working with the owner who was super super easy to work with. We spoke for a short 5 minutes and he knew exactly what I wanted and how to execute it. Well let me tell you, not only was everything absolutely beautiful to look at but tasted incredible! I am still eating the leftovers! I can not wait to plan another party so I can use them again!!! Perfect perfect job!! Thank you La Bonne Boulangerie!!!! read more

This is just another example of an amazing cake by the Messina's. Not only are they beautiful, but every guest goes back for seconds because they're DELISH! The cakes are creative and travel wonderfully. I am never ever disappointed, and my family looks forward to something new for every occasion. read more

Yunno what folks? I'm going to have to go ahead and give La Bonne a whopping 3 stars...if it was 6 months ago, I would be scoring it 4-4.5 stars... I really think the quality of this place has gone wayyyy down...think of a slippery slope from your Honors BC Calculus class from high school. Their cakes, pastries and assorted cookies aren't as good as they used to be, their creativity for cakes isn't up to par with other bakeries and "cake artists". You can thank the recent artisan CAKE explosion over the past few years to Duff from Ace of Cakes and other shows like Cake Bhoss etc. There is so much cake talent out there including your sister, brother and aunt/uncle who could probably match the talent of a La Bonne cake. I'm really sad because I used to recommend this bakery highly to several other folks and will only patronize them for their fresh french baguettes that you can't find anywhere else. They still do ONE thing right...and that's the french baguette. For everything else, there's another bakery (perhaps Benkerts in Centereach). Otherwise, save your money and go somewhere else read more

The linzer we brought home for $2.50 from the friendly young woman helping us was more than enough to sample their wares.(The woman who seemed to run the joint seemed overwhelmed by an order she was trying to rectify) Nothing bad but nothing worth a re-visit to this spot slightly off the proverbial strip. We were happy we didn't go with the high-volume-required Amazon Local deal in January ($12 for $25 to spend on baked goods, specialty breads, and homemade soups) or another for $20 for $40 to spend on baked goods, specialty breads, homemade soups, or a custom cake. read more

almost NEVER write a review but under the circumstance and they way I was treated/spoken to I felt it a MUST! Went into the the bakery and discussed and ordered a special bday cake for my daughter. Left feeling confident that all would be good since the bakery was highly recommended for a Long Island option...my first mistake! Anyway, after my husband went and picked up the cake....totally NOT what I ordered or expected ( ugly in fact) I called to discuss and let them know my disappointment...I was told I would hear from the manager the following day....Well... I did and this is what made me right this review.. I was spoken to in a RUDE manner and that was a understatement. In fact the person on the phone insisted they showed me a drawing of the cake and that too was NOT TRUE if this is what and how they deal with customer service ...good luck! TO say I will NEVER go there or recommend after being spoken to that way is fact! read more

The cake turned out beautiful and was delicious. Every morsal was eaten. People we not only completing the cake but the black and whites too. I know that they are the best black and white cookies on earth, but now everyone else knows too! I can't wait to eat the top tier in a year. Thanks again for everything! read more

Dortoni Bakery - Perfect on the outside and delicious on the inside. - Bakeries Near Me - Port Jefferson, New York

One of my favorite LI bakeries. The staff is always friendly and helpful, not ever have I received bad service here. The cannoli are delicious and if you happen to get them when they are freshly made, it is definitely a bonus. I also love the dulce de leche filled shortbread cookies. AS far as the other reviews, I've never gotten stale goods here. Before you judge, take a trip here and decide for yourself. read more

Wow, I worked in a bakery for a few years on weekends, (4am) in college. We used to make very prestigious cinnamon buns and cheescakes. The Danish and cakes here,are very very good!!! Nice spot clean and the staff were really really really very friendly and helpful even on an early Sunday morning! ! read more

Located in a small shopping center East of Mill River Road on the North side of 25A is La Bonne Boulangerie. While the area isn't very built up and the shopping center might not get your attention: put this on your radar. La Bonne Boulangerie boasts an impressive assortment of cakes, pies, cookies and pastries. They have cannolis that could kill, cakes that should be in magazines and they arrange the perfect platter. I disagree about the rainbow cookies (see Jamie's review). Not the best but still really good and it can be tough to find a good rainbow cookie. The staff is friendly and helpful and answers questions patiently. The space is tiny (I can't even imagine the rent) and for this reason the bakery is a little cramped. That's fine, since I usually think of bakeries and "get and go" kind of places. The problem is that the tops of the display cases are packed with samples obscuring your view of the staff person to whom you speak. La Bonne Boulangerie ships throughout the country - an added bonus! read more

The packaging and the look of the italian cookies were cute but when it came down to taste, the cookies were not so..."bonne." They were mushy/mealy instead of crisp/flaky as they should be. Maybe stale or just a strange recipe. read more

I loved the variety this little bakery offered. Especially the Chocolate Raspberry Crumb Cake. My one recommendation would be to consider changing out the display cases for new ones. Some of the pastries we ate tasted like old refrigerant. The taste was the strongest in the items with the butter cream. As far as the staff goes, the girls that helped us were helpful and very courteous. However, upon leaving we narrowly dodged a $100 ticket by a cantankerous old prick of a Constable who informed us that were we parked was for "Residents Only"!!! read more

If you are looking to pay extra for your wedding cake and be mislead on what are actually getting. Then this is the bakery for you. I sat down with Cory about 11 months before my wedding and went over all the specific details of how the cake would look. Pulling for cakes the bakery had already done. The cake not only had a giant bubble on the side of the cake but the flowers did not look like they were suppose to and the lettering on the cake was wrong. When I called to discuss the issues after my wedding I was told on three occasions that Cory could call me back which he didn't. I was finally told to send an email. In that email I included all the photos of how the cake was suppose to look and what the cake ended up looking like. I then had to keep following up and finally one of the women who answers the phone tells me Cory said I would be getting a refund. After a month of waiting for the check is was only 1/2 of what I paid. All of my wedding photos with the cake are ruined and mind you the cake was included but I paid extra for the specific things I wanted that I did not get. They have since refused to issued me the remainder of what I paid. Avoid this bakery at all cost they do not deliver on what they promise. read more

Beware! I gave a deposit on a wedding cake back in August 2019. A few days later, I cancelled my order and was told it would take 3 weeks to see my refund. It's January 2020 and I still have not seen my refund. I called the bakery at least 5 times and they are constantly giving me the runaround... even my credit card company agrees. Unfortunately, the management gives false promises. They are very unprofessional. Be weary if you decide to put a deposit on a wedding cake here. read more

Have been using this local bake shop since they opened. Their rainbow cookies are amazing. However, they are not made in house. Most recently, we bought a cake for our mothers birthday when it came time to serve, we noticed the entire table including us literally put their plate aside. The cake was all sugar zero flavor, huge disappointment. Today Sunday, we went to the shop the staff was un_ apologetic for our disappointment. My wife and I were even more upset that they simply said this is their best cake. We demanded a refund or store credit but they said cake was almost half eaten. (The other half in garbage). Honestly, we went back based on principal not money. The girl offered us 9$ and got on phone with manager who didn't want to speak to me. I think it's horrible service and we are still demanding a full refund or we will not be coming bake to his shop. read more

Our wedding cake was delicious, and absolutely beautiful! Highly recommend this bakery!

No complaints about the products, but charging $.25 per box for a place that already charges top dollar for their goods is pure BS. It's a rip off following the example of the airlines, but since there are other bakery options its time to go elsewhere . read more

Well, the place is very clean and modern which is a nice start. If you are looking for coffee and a place to sit, they only have two chairs at a counter which is up against a wall. This is the first bakery I've been in where you don't take a number so you have to wait on a line and can't really look at things in the counters for fear of loosing your place. The prices are not all labeled, only some of the items, so you kind of have to ask them what things cost. They were out of cannolli and a few other items on Saturday, which does seem unusual for a bakery to be out of cannollis. Coffee starts at $2.45 for a 12 ounce paper cup. Cookies are about $15/pound to $18.50/pound. It has a steady stream of business while we were there. They seem to make good bread and things but they seem to run out of things. We had been in Maria's in Westbury earlier in the day and they seemed to have a good if not better selection there. I am giving some demerits on service because it felt a little cold, and we didn't feel all that welcome. read more

Just picked up cookies for my son's 5 birthday today. We had a few last minute cancellations with RSVPs so my husband and I figured we'd split a spare cookie before the party tomorrow. It was DELICIOUS! Perfect density and texture, not too sweet, and they are BEAUTIFULLY decorated! MUCH bigger than expected and delicious- worth every cent! read more

Horrible service ! Do not go there. Will ruin everything they don't know how to run a business

I'm not usually impressed by cakes served at weddings but when I tasted this dreamy confection at my cousin's wedding, I just had to find out who made the cake! Absolutely stunning and so delicious! The bride raved about her experience with Dan at La Bonne Boulangerie - my son and his bride just made an appointment to design their own wedding cake! read more

June 25th was my daughters wedding. The caterer, staff, food and place was fantastic...the included wedding cake, not so much. La Bonne Boulangerie was recommended. The cake tasted fine...their customer service was absolutely horrible. The cake size was determined by the number of people....five tiers was recommended. My daughter wanted it decorated in a Disney theme. We were told no problem but would cost an additional $200. To make the bride happy, we went with it. When we see the cake in the reception hall for the first time, we noticed it was leaning, crooked...sort of a Leaning Tower of Pisa. Everyone that seen it had the same type of response, "it's pretty but crooked." On Monday morning, we sent off a pic of the cake to the bakery. Relating our disappointment....after paying extra to make the cake perfect, we had a very imperfect leaning cake. Whoever received the text wrote they would immediately pass it to Corey. It is now almost 4 weeks later, not a call...text...word or peep from Corey or anyone else from La Bonne Boulangerie. If you just want cake, do whatever. If you want a perfect affair or customer service look elsewhere. read more

I just spent $20 on a very small amount of cookies to bring to someone and I have to say I'm embarrassed to bring them. Not only does it look like I spent nothing but they have no taste!! Too bad Tilda's in Rocky Point is closed on Mondays. Never again! read more

Not what it used to be. The aggravation associated with visiting this bakery isn't worth it. I'm local and a good customer but have been coming here less and less due to the fact that the staff makes errors and the people who work here have ZERO customer service skills (writing the wrong name on an engagement cake, errors in filling pre-orders, rude owner, etc.) This morning I went in for bread and cheesecake and when I checked the bag at home they gave me a pie. I called hoping they would just hold a cheesecake off to the side for me to exchange it and I was told they don't "even have pumpkin cheesecake, she probably thought you said pumpkin something else." No apology, no attempt to make it right. My response was "I don't want pumpkin pie, we already have this." To which I was met with silence. It pains me to take my money out of the community I live in but I am done with this place. Yes the cakes are pretty but they don't have anything so amazing that I'm willing to deal with this lack of customer service. Too many chances. read more

The only reason why I didn't give 5 stars was because of the lack of customer service that I've had there on more than one occasion. Every time I go to this bakery I have to break up the employees conversation after five minutes of standing there waiting to be helped. Not to mention 90% of the time the employees don't know what the baked goods are or the ingredients in them. Once I was told I bought a peanut butter moose tart and I got home and it was mocha, yuck! However, the desserts and breads are always fresh and they have a nice variety. read more
