Everything in the showcase looked SO fresh and yummy the tuesday afternoon that i visited. My favorite item is the apricot cigar. Love that it contains sliced almonds. Will try the raspberry cigar next time. Liked the pineapple upside down cake and blueberry danish but neither contains nuts. Most of the year i live in nj where local bakeries are nut-free, so i will return to brooklyn bakery and ask which items contain nuts. The prices seemed high, which is good; so maybe i wont go too often. And i want to try the deli next door! read more

Every baked good and desert we have had from there is great! The Cannoli is delicious! Cupcakes are huge and moist. You have to try it. read more

Everything is excellent except the price I got three eclairs and it cost me $25. That's outrageously too much unless they were totally organic and locally sourced... Plus huge plastic containers Not very environmentally friendly for being so expensive and fancy and all that. The eclair was pretty good, authentic and everything but the prices were way way way too high. read more

Sadly, as mentioned in several other reviews there is a attitude issue with their employees. They have a very large selection of cookies, cakes, etc that span down 4 large cases that have 4 shelf levels each (not to mention treats in other locations) so it is a lot to take in. Especially when most things do look delicious so you are trying to figure out what you want. When we were asked they could get us, we giggled and I said "Oh I don't know what I want yet". The guy snapped back and said "well everyone else does" and walked away. Umm excuse me!! Then go help the people who know what they want! Which I know wasn't true because of few random ladies and I laughed together that there was just too much. There is no need for that kind of snippy and rude remark. Honestly, I would say they are lucky that Ben did want a cannoli or I would have just left because I don't need that nonsense from anyone where I am trying to spend my money at their establishment. He was an older gentleman, maybe the manager or owner... who cares. So onto the taste test. The cannoli shell was either old or over baked because it just crumbled. The filling was good. We also got an eclair because it had been forever since I had one. Again, the pastry itself was dry but the filling was great. Definitely have had way better and yes, I've had them in NY. It really saddens me that this was the outcome of our visit to them. They really do have so many options that I would have gone back to try but not with bad treatment. There are plenty of other small businesses that would gladly provide great service. Especially for the pricing. read more

My go too spot for cookies and cakes. Trust me you will love it. I always get the raspberry white chocolate cake

I bought a large black & white cookie. Way overpriced at $8.00! I asked if it tasted like it was made in Brooklyn where I used to live. Cashier didn't know since she wasn't from Brooklyn. I took a chance & I'm sorry that I did. It was stale & thin .. not like the original.. I would not recommend this bakery. read more

The Brooklyn Bakery - Thin, stale ... went right in the garbage after I tasted it. Do not buy. - Bakeries Near Me - Palm Harbor, Florida

Asked for an espresso, they gave it to me in a mug ! That's not how it's supposed to be served.

I've attempted to purchase items here three times only being successful once. The cakes and pastries are decent by the service is abominable. I was the only person at the bakery and the two people behind the counter were more interested in heat was going on I believe in the register or their personal business than helping a customer. I literally stood there for ten minutes why I don't know and walked out the door. I decided to try again this time with two people behind the counter and one customer beside myself in the store. I just don't get it. I waited while the person in front of me was being taken care of but there was another person working and staring into space. There are plenty of places to buy pastries who are glad to serve me and happy to take my money. I guess Brooklyn bakery isn't one of them. I did get to taste a few of their items since a friend had premixed and waited there one day but went through a similar experience. They're nothing to rave about. Sweet Caroline's is a much better experience and very good pastries. Being from New York I would expect more from a place like this. read more

The baked goods aren't fresh and clearly not made locally. They are stale. And the price is ridiculous. I wish I had looked at the reviews ahead of time. I ordered 3 large black and white cookies, 1 slice of rainbow cake, and 1 slice of carrot cake. All it was dry. The black and white cookies should be soft and fluffy like a yellow cake. These were flat and crunchy. I had asked for a cannoli and they were out of cannoli filling. I'm happy that's the case based on the review. Those items cost me $39. So ridiculous. There must be better bakeries in Palm Harbor and that actually make the good. Don't go here and waste your money. You'll be fooled. read more

Upon entering Lucky Dill, which shares a lobby with Brooklyn Bakery, the customer is greeted by a refrigerated case full of an assortment of cakes. Not just any small cakes. We're talking HUGE, OMG, FEED-THE-ENTIRE-FAMILY-FOR-THANKSGIVING cakes. Yeah. "How big?", you ask. Lemme tell ya, I'm talking SEVEN, you heard me, SEVEN layers! So, FIVE STARS for visual appeal of their dessert cases. Sweet Tooth screaming, I promised myself to stop back when exiting Lucky Dill. This is one of those times I wish I had three arms to pat myself on the back for pulling in the reigns and just getting a Small Cannoli (also available in regular size). As I was driving, I held off on the sweet treat until I reached my destination. Iced coffee to wash it down, I took a bite. This Cannoli is a perfect example of how looks are deceiving. It was not fresh. It was not what I expected. However, it was one thing for sure---a disappointment. Also, the clerk was having a bad day, it appeared, as she limited conversing with me to only curtly answer the few questions I had and yell at a coworker. Well, it IS called Brooklyn Bakery. Perhaps they want you to feel like you're actually IN (the pissed off side of) Brooklyn(?) read more

I found the bagel and cream cheese (6.00) and small ice tea (4.00) way over priced and not worth the money.

The staff member said it best: New York prices for this New York bakery. Sorry but $8 for a donut? I'll pass.

Don't get the cannolis the shell was soft and seemed like they were old. The rainbows are good though. Also it was pricey for the quality

Did you know that most bakeries in Pinellas are closed on Mondays? I would think a sweet treat to get you past the Monday blues would be great business but I guess not. Anyway, I need to grease some wheels every so often to make things happen in my favor and it's always been with cannolis. My regular places do not happen to be open on Mondays so I went to Yelp and found this place. It is part of the Lucky Dill Deli and actually shares the entrance. As others have mentioned the selections are overwhelming. While I was there I actually heard two different people say they were getting nothing because they couldn't make up their mind. They have quite a few cheesecake options, cookies, waffles, cannolis and everything else you imagine. For five large cannolis is ran me $25 which seemed a bit high maybe by a dollar each. They were alright. Definitely not the best in the area but not the worst. I would be interested in trying something else but I won't be running back. 4 stars because of the massive selection. read more

I went to Brooklyn Bakery a few years ago Sandwiches were good and the cakes were amazing. I notice a few people states it wasn't that good that's only because they cant make good cakes and sandwiches in the state they came from Illinois hint hint!! read more

Too expensive! Super overpriced. I paid $23 for one sliver of cake which was not even a full portion and a portion of cheesecake. Outrageous! read more

My second visit here was over the weekend. The first time I went, I was impressed with the selection. Rows and rows of beautiful looking desserts. However, I wasn't impressed with the quality or prices. After this second visit (because I wanted to give it another chance), I left with the same impression as the first. Do not get cake here, it's always dry. With the other items, you run the risk of it not being fresh. I bought a slice of chocolate cake and a chocolate peanut butter dessert. Total was $13.45! There's no prices listed, so you can't prepare yourself to hear that total. If I am spending that much, it needs to be worth every cent. Unfortunately, it was not. I won't make the mistake of going here again. read more

Cashier is rude and refuses to acknowledge you when you are in line, as if she has some type of grudge! Need to have better and friendlier customer service for everyone and not just a select few. read more

Delicious pastries of all kinds, this is the kind of place that you will go back to and try one of everything!

Wow, talk about need to do a double-take! This place has a wonderful selections of Italian desserts and the portion are well worth the money! Staff were very patient as I was trying to figure what to get cause it all looked so good! I'm all ready to go back! read more

This place does not bake any of their stuff! All their cakes are from us foods. Many of the chain restaurants carry their cakes....gondolier, etc no originality at all. Big disappointment. read more
