    a cake and balloons
    Ruth D.

    I'm a regular here! I live in the BX and if I need any baked goods this is my go to place. I don't mind the commute (10-15) and they are in a high traffic but convenient area, just a block from the GWB terminal station. My current and previous co-workers love their food. They are open before the morning shift starts, so you can always stop there before the start of your shift and get some baked bread filled with your choice of ham and cheese, or just cheese. Those go quick. Anything you need:cake, Spanish oatmeal Avena (it's drinkable), empanadas (patellitos), quipes (fried wheat balls filled with meat), croquets, guava and cheese pastries, flan, Awesome Tres leche Dominican cakes! They make any cake for any occasion with your choice of American or Dominican cake, with merengue frosting or fondant.

    Line for food but it goes fast

    Steamed coffee muy pronto! The concha bread is light and frosted with sugar deliciously. The staff is so friendly in English and Spanish. They lack horrible service, in my opinion, as well! The line gets long at meal times -- because it is so good! Plan accordingly!

    By the ice cream is where the friends of the place skip the line. The group of people you see at the back is where the actual line is.

    To go to this bakery you have to have an extra supply of patience. The service is terrible! You could be on the line but if someone they know comes in after you they scream their order from the back of the line and get their order before you even have a chance to order. They get mad if anyone says anything. Every customer is not worth the same in this place. The prices have gone up and the pastelitos are dry. Not worth the headache. There's other bakery's in the area that are better.

    Roommates birthday cake ordered 2 hours prior. So beautiful! And DELICIOUS

    My favorite dominican cakes always come from here. Past two years i have been ordering cakes for my birthday, my friends' birthdays, cookouts you name it i bring cake and bring it from here. Careful they are always full and require in person orders for cakes but i have yet to be disappointed by anything i have ordered here. I just wish ordering by phone were acceptable. When i order in person though NY cakes are ready a couple hours later so they also do not need a ton of time of anticipated notice which is great for those last minute orders. I will continue coming here for as long as i live in the area and recommend it to others.

    I love coming to this bakery because, it's covinient and their prices are reasonable.Often times there is a line however as others have mentioned it does move rather quickly. Thier Dominican beverage called Morir Soñando keeps me coming back every time. I see how non Spanish speakers might get frustrated unfortunately the majority of the patrons and employees are Hispanic so do not encounter such difficulty.

    I am obsessed with the pastries and cakes here and how beautiful they are! I deeply appreciate the…read moreartistry that goes into making these fruit-looking desserts that bring the taste to life. The Mango and Pistachio looked so realistic and mirrored the flavors perfectly. I love the size of their cakes which are perfect to share with a group of 4. I indulged in their Black Sesame Mochi Cake and Blueberry Chiffon Cake which both have the fluffiest sponge cake base, a fluffy vibrant cream, and fresh ingredients and fruit. Give their drinks a try too. I enjoy their matcha here! The Traffic Lights is a strawberry matcha with a mango cream top. And I also tried their Black Sesame Latte but substituted the espresso for matcha and loved this customized pairing. FYI, there is no bathroom!

    Finally decided to try this place after walking by it for years. I refused to try this in the past,…read morebecause I didn't like how many items they put on display. It felt like items weren't made with care and mass produced at a factory or something. I went 10 minutes before they closed and there was still 10+ of each dessert. I'm not convinced that they will dispose of them. Even if they do, it means they didn't do a good job in forecasting demand especially after being in business for multiple years. I ordered mango and yuzu. Both were too sweet and had one dimensional flavor and textures, not refreshing per their stated flavors. Even if their appearances take effort, they don't look pretty enough for me to forgive what goes in my mouth. I'm used to having patisseries with many layers and elements. Mango's sponge probably only took up 20% of the bottom, because I barely had bites of it. Most of my bites didn't have any. I didn't like how liquid the filling was. It didn't exactly ooze out but just melted into a puddle in my mouth. Yuzu looks pretty with the pink and yellow glaze, but it didn't go with the realistic fruit theme. I chose it for the flavor combination which is strawberry, yuzu, and guava. This was slightly better in terms of flavor variety in the mouth. The flower on top had a weird off putting flavor. The bottom crispy rice apparently is supposed to be chocolate but it came out plain. It was tasteless anyway, so not effective in terms of flavor or texture.

I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

    What a delightful surprise! After working late and attending an event after work, one of my…read morecoworkers suggested we stop here because they loved their cookies. I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!

I will say that I didn't think I would like this cookie at all since usually I like thinner crunchier cookies. But holy cow!! I was blown away by the crispy edges and the interior wasn't too soft gooey either. The chocolate and walnuts added to the cookie enhanced the flavor even more! For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!

The quality of the shot was excellent, smooth, bright, and really clean. The bar setup itself is super unique and very minimalist. They are running a really interesting under the counter espresso machine where the main bulk of the equipment is hidden away, leaving just these sleek, minimal group heads rising up from the counter. It was my first time seeing a machine of that style in person, and it looks incredibly sharp. I would absolutely come back here next time I'm in the area.
