Often, food outshines any other element during a trip to a cafe or restaurant. When I think back to…read moreour must recent visit here though, I'm reminded again and again how pleasant the staff were. It took us a while to decide on what to buy partly because we were buying also for our friends. Naturally, we were asked relatedly by at least the different staff if we needed help or if we were ready to order. Each time, they seemed genuinely want to help, and made us feel welcome with their smiles and gentle demeanor. For myself, the pistachio muffin was totally satisfying and I confirm they did not slump on the nuts. The crunchy eclair was a BIG hit with our friends, and the rest is kind of a blur but I know we enjoyed everything we tried. We'd go back without hesitation. I hope they keep up the great work.

Definitely one of the best French Bakery in Queens area or even in NYC!! Everything was good!…read more Location: It is located around the corner of 39th avenue and bell boulevard. The restaurant/bakery is big with lot of seating. Great display of cakes, pastries and breads. Street parking is available. Service: the nicest people. Food: all of their cakes, pastries and breads aew amazing. But two of my favorites are: DUKE: definitely a must! Its chocolate cake with I believe a cookie crust inside. It comes in cubes so definitely easier to share. CRUNCHY: this is the very must!! It's chocolate mouse inside with layers of other chocolates. Plus with nuts on it. It's like a ferrero but bigger! Price rating: 7/10. It was not expensive a good cake. I always buy cake here for special occasions or even if I am craving cakes. Visit this, its worth it!

Martha's is a staple bakery in Queens, now expanded into other boroughs, and they've done…read moreincredibly well over the years maintaining quality and consistency in their desserts. There's usually a line of some length during peak hours and especially around the holidays. You can tell by the sheer volume of baked goods and cakes available in their window displays that they sell a lot daily. This location is on the main drag of the little downtown section of Forest Hills, the baked goods in the front window display connect to a tall and long glass counter along the left side of the store that extends almost to the back. At the back middle and along the right side of the wall there's seating for about two dozen people at small cafe tables. They carry an assortment of traditional cakes (full and sliced), pies, cookies, pastries, cheesecakes, cupcakes, ice cream and coffee/tea drinks. A wide variety of flavors in each, so you're bound to find something sweet to satisfy most here. They are a classic bakery so from what I can tell, they don't carry items that are gluten, dairy or nut free. I've purchased their apple pie, fruit tart, berry napoleon, red velvet and chocolate fudge cakes from this or other locations in the past and they're all solid choices for desserts to share with a larger group, though I find a lot of their cake options to be on the richer side. My most recent encounter with their cakes came in the form of a slice of their seven layer cake $9.95 which is thin layers of yellow cake alternating with chocolate cream mmm pretty tasty, and their caramel cake $9.95 which had a layer of chocolate cake in the middle, sandwiched by caramel cream and white cake on either side. The latter had a pronounced caramel flavor that was enjoyable though a bit too much cream for me. My preference would be for their chocolate cakes over other cake flavors here. Their apple pie is one of my favorite apple pies anywhere tho!

The service was quick, and I love the wooden furniture for a slightly rustic atmosphere.

I only tried the Chinese pastries. They're on the flaky side, so I recommend eating them on an actual tray, a bowl, or with some paper underneath because they're pretty delicate and crumbly. Some of them are spongy, like this cake thing, and others are flaky, like a cookie. I recommend 85° Bakery Café for a quick pit stop. The service is pretty nice, and the ambience is very Chinese. You can't go wrong with that.

We ordered the Greek Yogurt Berry Danish and the Pizza Baguette. The danish had a flaky, buttery pastry with a creamy yogurt filling and fresh berries that balanced the sweetness nicely. The pizza baguette was warm, cheesy, and flavorful with a generous amount of toppings--definitely a satisfying savory option. For drinks, we tried the Mango Smoothie and the Pistachio Cloud Latte. The mango smoothie wasn't thick, but it had a fresh, natural mango flavor that was refreshing and not overly sweet. The pistachio cloud latte was my favorite--it had a rich, nutty pistachio flavor with a creamy cloud topping that made every sip delicious. The café is clean, charming, and has a welcoming atmosphere. There are so many pastries and breads to choose from that we'll definitely be back to try more. A great addition to the Forest Hills neighborhood!
