The lattes are so good!! I also tried the quiche and while sweet potato quiche is a new flavor for me, I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. As for the pound cake, I've always seemed to get a dry one. Or maybe I just prefer mine more moist. Cute spot for the neighborhood. read more

They have great cruffins and salads and quiches. Coffee or tea. Fun place for lunch or afternoon tea. Unique events for the kids

Gave polka dot pastries another try and glad I did- the pastry, which was filled with delicious chocolate, was amazing. Salads and sandwiches are also very good.Highly recommend polkadot read more

I love this restaurant, the food, the feel, the food is so fresh, love it the only thing I think I would change is to make the pound cakes a little more moist and less dry. The staff is so nice and the restaurant is so quaint. read more

Such a cute little spot in the heart of RVC. Decent selection of pastries and baked goods/breads. I got a latte which was so yummy and hot! I also ate there with some friends, and ordered the Cafe Egg sandwich I believe it was called and OMG wow the flavors were delicious and the bread I chose (focaccia) was so so good. I would literally go back just for that bread. The workers brought me out my food and served with a smile :) I will definitely be back! read more

Great croissants but their pain au chocolat might be better than what I have tried in Paris. Fairly reasonable prices too.

The coffee and chocolate croissants were fantastic! It was a little pricey, but the comfy couch made up for it.

Darling bakery with tea seating-- home to the BEST MUFFINS I EVER HAD! Expect great service, this bakery is a real charmer. The Apple crumb muffin and blueberry muffin were off the charts best I ever had. I enjoyed the cruffin as well. Good coffee too. read more

This place is absolutely delightful. The tea is divine and the service is amazing. I felt very relaxed here.

My absolute favorite coffee spot in my neighborhood. The pastries and baked goodies are absolutely amazing, service is impeccable, and the DECOR is absolutely stunning - there's plenty of space to sit and enjoy and catch up with friends or do work (there's WiFi!), which is sometimes hard to find on LI! I recommend this spot & Lisa's wonderfulness to everyone I meet! read more

Such a cute little place! I took my daughter here for a special mother daughter breakfast and we both loved it. They have a delicious selection and the pastries were all fresh and tasty! We only ordered breakfast pastries this time, but I saw a couple of great looking salads and sandwiches that I can't wait to go back for! Prices weren't bad at all, the staff was friendly and the whole place was clean with adorable theming! read more

Polka Dot Pound Cake - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rockville Centre, New York

This place is beyond cute and recently expanded!! I love a nice, family owned business in the town of RVC. I therefore adore popping in here for some coffee and sometimes a pastry. The owners are beyond nice and make everything in house. I have a number of their muffins and a chocolate croissant. Muffins are definitely the route to go, though the croissant was still good! I'm just more of a muffin person :) I like the coffee as well and I appreciate that they keep almond milk in the fridge for those of us that prefer to nix the dairy from our coffee. They also offer cute knick-knacks in the store such as cards and kitchen towels. I always hold back from buying but I am sure I will cave eventually. So happy that this place has expanded and seems to be doing well! I definitely do not want it departing from the area. read more

Lovely warm atmosphere- with delicious goodies. It's such a pleasant atmosphere and creative space . Always fun !! read more

Came here for a Mother's Day present for my mom got the afternoon tea. Was amazing! The teas, quiche and pastries and salad were so good! I've also had a bunch of their other baked good and every single thing was delicious!! read more

Cozy clean atmosphere and a great place to meet friends for lunch! It's just not cake!

Had the opportunity to grab a quick bite here and I must say I will definitely be a regular. The atmosphere was so quaint and the owner was very nice as well. Lisa took time explaining the menu and answering all my questions. The menu was amazing in a sense there was something for everyone ranging from meat to non meat options. The sandwich I had was made up of mozzarella tomatoes and balsamic which was finger licking good. Besides how great the food and drinks were it was the price for me. Everything was super affordable and to go on a lunch date and spend 25 dollars and leave full and Happy is mind blowing. If you're in the RVC Baldwin area of LI I highly recommend this family owned business. read more

I love this place. It's a lovely, quaint bakery/restaurant with delicious food and friendly staff. I love their dinner salads, there's one with spring greens, diced sweet potatoes, diced chicken, and goat cheese with a balsamic dressing. Soooo good. They have a nice selection of pound cakes, cookies, scones, and muffins. Everything is made with the best ingredients. This is a Rockville Centre gem! read more

Very much impressed by PDPC! My friend asked me to meet her there earlier this year, and we have been going back routinely ever since. Their loaf cakes are so buttery and delicious. Their scones are the perfect balance of crunchy texture on the outside, and soft on the inside. The cinnamon maple scone is definitely my favorite. It's a small step up in usual scone sweetness that makes it great for breakfast or as dessert. The coffee is made fresh and expertly. And for the kids they make a hot chocolate with marshmallows and rainbow sprinkles that turn it different colors. My 5 year old loves coming in with me. If you want something savory they make a type of soufflé for breakfast though I do not recall what it is called. It is made fresh and worth the wait. Check this place out! It's a complete gem and way better than the competing bakeries in the surrounding areas. PS I forgot to comment on the service! Everyone is wonderful, soft spoken and friendly. It makes for a very calminf atmosphere to stay and eat. read more

This bakery is so adorably shabby chic! Everything from the cookies to the pound cake was amazing that I tried from here. I placed an order for Christmas that's how amazing this bakery is. I'm so happy I stopped in one day and checked it out. My new favorite bakery! You won't be disappointed if you come here read more

We visited Polka Dot Pound Cake one afternoon after eating lunch next door. We had delicious tea!! We didn't try the cookies bc we had just eaten!! But everything looked delicious and it smelled so good too!! The room is beautifully decorated and it is very quaint and inviting!! We saw that there was a Mother's Day breakfast coming up a few weeks following our visit...so we made reservations we went!! It was so nice and beautifully done!! Lisa, the owner served us on beautifully set tables and tea sets!! We were served scones, with Devonshire cream and preserves. Brown sugar cinnamon croissant soufflé with maple syrup. Banana bread cream cheese sandwiches. Strawberries, raspberry linzers and of course delicious English breakfast tea, strawberry iced tea and pink lemonade! Everything was sooooo good. I especially liked the soufflé! It was very very fluffy and not too sweet!! Just right! Lisa worked very hard to make this beautiful tea special!! We lingered and were the last ones there. We never felt rushed or pressured to leave!! We also met Carina!! Who took our pictures and was so sweet!! It is definitely a must return for me. When we had visited before, Lisa was very nice to answer all our questions! They also serve lunch and offer seasonal cookies and events!! Everything is baked on premises. And when you walk in the smell just makes you want to eat everything!! Thank you for making our Mother's Day tea so special! we had a beautiful time!! read more

Cannot really give a full review as i didn't purchase much. I went there due to it being my g/f's 50th birthday and wanting to get her one of her favorite things. Purchased two of their Linzer Tarts. My girlfriend thought they were excellent!!! How can you not like things that are made on the premises?? I am only about 3/4 of mile away and will have to go back to sample more of their wares. They all looked delicious. And i love that they have tables where you can sit, eat, sip coffee and relax!! read more

This place is a local gem! Coffee is wonderful and the muffins, cookies, and pound cake (of course) are delicious. This is a great place to buy host/hostess gifts or a baked good for yourself, of course. Service is always wonderful. read more

Polka Dot Pound Cake - Snickerdoodle cookie sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rockville Centre, New York

Absolutely delightful and delicious! I had the opportunity to visit Polka Dot Poundcake today and I can't wait to go back! The store is beautiful and the baked goods are a true indulgence. I had the almond croissant which, to me, was a true croissant. So often croissants are mass produced and the wrong texture but this was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and buttery on the inside. Most importantly the almond filling was generous, 5 Stars! I met the owner who was friendly and shared special details about the Christmas pound cake inspired by her Norwegian roots. I can't wait to have it with coffee tomorrow morning. The gifts are beautiful and thoughtfully displayed. I picked up some extra special Christmas gifts. The owner shared plans for expansion and afternoon tea will be offered. I'm ready to make my reservation! If you're close to RVC, be sure to visit this gem. read more

The scones here are delicious and the coffee is good. Sitting inside is like sitting at a table or couch of a cozy delicious smelling home. The staff is wonderful and kind. So glad to have come across this place. read more

For some reason, when I first walked in to Polka Dot Pound Cake I expected it to be like Flour Shoppe or Front Street (Italian cookies, pastries, crusty breads), but it was totally different (in the best way). The whole store smelled like freshly baked banana bread and it felt like I stepped into someone's personal kitchen. I cannot wait to come back to this charming home-y environment and enjoy more delectable treats and coffee, of course! read more

Polka Dot Pound Cake - I'm a sucker for cute coffee shops! Aren't these adorable!? - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Rockville Centre, New York

This place is amazing! Perfect for a quick gift to bring to a party. The pound cakes, cookies, croissants, tea and coffee, salads and sandwiches are fantastic! Everything is homemade. The citrus vinaigrette is delicious, and the breads are great quality. It is beautifully furnished if you are staying, and there are chairs outside as well. The only drawback is difficult parking, so I recommend parking across the street in the lot behind the Greystone Deli. The owner is a sweetheart as well. Try the croissant that is baked like a muffin, with jam inside. It has a special name. read more

I stopped by today to get a cappuccino and cookie. Cappuccino was very very good. The cookie was delicious! It tasted homemade and fresh! It's so rare to be able to find this out lately. The place is so welcoming as well and was filled with families due to the time I went and some other adults having food or a beverage. read more

Everything in this shop is homemade and absolutely delicious!! Whatever you buy from breads, to cookies will definitely not disappoint! My favourite from here is the banana bread, which comes in multiple sizes. The muffins are also delicious, and upon request custom cakes and other bake goods can be ordered. I would definitely recommend stoping in to this bakery if you are looking for a sweet and delicious treat! read more

This little gem is an absolute go to. From their almond croissants to apple crumb muffins.... you will not be disappointed and will be coming back for more. Staff is super sweet and friendly! read more

Ordered their tea menu at old westbury gardens. Everyone knows that when you have an assortment of foods there is always something to complain about. Not a thing. How wonderful! Ordered extra bakery items because 1) they were fabulous; 2) I'm from New Jersey; 3) their bakery in Rockville center. Plan on using them as my bakery. Definitely try them. You won't be disappointed. read more

Cute little bake shop right on long beach road! Me and my friends have been looking for a coffee shop in Rockville Centre that has seating AND tastes good. We found it right here! The business owner was extremely friendly and took the time to engage us. I only got a tea, but they are known for their pound cakes. A customer who came in after us said that she orders pound cake there for every party that she throws, her guests say that it isn't a party without them. Highly recommend! read more
