    Good cheap pastry
    Zealous C.

    Expensive for the quality. The food was mid at best, only good thing was the sugar coated pastry. The service was good, and quick. Very nice comfortable place, unlike the food. The carrot cake taste had a good taste, but TERRIBLE consistency. It was almost just old like my grandmother. The cheesecake was stiff and chewy. I compared it to cheesecake factory, and this was a joke. The strawberry placed on-top was also OLD and SOUR. I love strawberries and cheesecake, and the fact that they can ruin such a beautiful combination is INSANE! The tres leches wasn't as sweet for. It was bland and wasnt up to my expectations. Especially for FIVE dollars. As we were leaving, we were not given a goodbye, which left me feeling like an unimportant customer.

    Plain sugared donut Better than Dunkin

    If your Latinx, highly recommend this Mexican deli restaurant for the homemade pan grandma would buy ! Better cappuccino than Dunkin or Starbucks ! #SupportSmallBusinesses

    Taylor Ham & Cheese with fresh Natural Orange Juice (16 oz.)
    Matthew V.

    I had heard an article on the difference between Taylor ham and pork roll. When business called for me to visit New Jersey I jumped at the chance to sample this famous sandwich. This quaint and unassuming deli/café served a delicious Taylor ham breakfast sandwich with egg & cheese on a Portuguese roll. It was definitely worth the wait as the sandwich was a home run. With a side of fresh squeezed orange juice; I can't wait to get back again! I don't care what you call it - I highly recommend it

    Stacked.

    Linden isn't very entrepreneur friendly. Which I guess is good, because if it was, this would be on our main street and not down the road from me. A main street filled with pizza places, bars that probably pledge a allegiance to the Confederate flag and barber shops. Lots of barber shops. Please do not close down. I will pour money into this place. So many moneys. Open 7 days a week until 8. It's a deli/bakery so you got choices. $5 mini for plastic, which isn't bad at all. You'd hit $5 after getting a decent sized sandwich, a drink and a custard cup. Indoor seating and two televisions. Coffee. Empanadas. Tons of parking in the area also if you're unlike me and don't skateboard. Customer service was also on point. Patient and unnecessarily apologetic. Linden just stepped its game up. And I get to step up my Portuguese.

    Two Costas Bakery is a small family owned bakery providing great food with an extremely friendly environment!

    Two Costas Bakery is a small family owned bakery located in Linden, NJ. The food is great for on the go or a nice morning sit down. They provide extremely friendly service and make you feel very welcomed. The food comes out at a timely matter and is always consistent in taste & quality. My go to: Coffee, Chorizo sandwich with lettuce, tomato, cheese, light mayo, and toasted on a fresh Portuguese roll. Two Custard cups or as we call it in Portuguese "Pasteis de Nata" "OUTSTANDING" If you are within the Linden/ Roselle area do not hesitate to give Two Costas a try !

    Never in my life have I had a Toasted Crossaint w/ Cream Cheese, until this moment at Two Castas. It was GREAT. I need more!

    The employees are super sweet here, and they definitely are passionate about their customers. They do the best they can to make sure you get your whole order and they make sure it's all correct. It gets real busy in there.

    This is a small neighborhood bakery/deli. The selection is great, the food is delicious, coffee is good too.

    The receipt. I covered the servers name even though the servers aren't that nice.

    Okay, so until Costas makes good on their professionalism and dignity as an honest establishment- this review will stay. I've been here a number of times. The food is good but the service is not. No one is overly friendly. The only reason people go here is because like I said, the food is good and fairly priced. But if you're not Portuguese, you are treated differently than if you are. I'm Italian which is fairly close enough lol. I say this Bc one of the girls I took there IS Portuguese and she was treated better. It could be the language barrier that makes the difference but I don't think so. So I was here for two hours last week. I bought myself and three girls breakfast. One of the girls bought a sandwich for her mom but paid separately. When the lady rang me up, I was expected to pay so I didn't see the receipt until way after as I shoved it in my purse and ONLY looked at it when I was going to throw it out. That's when I noticed I was charged for the girl's moms take-out sandwich which I confirmed w her that she had paid although I had seen her do it anyway. I call the restaurant and explain this to them. I get switched from one person to another so I assume the second person I talked to was a manager. It was an older woman. She was RUDE and so NOT for the customer. She thought I was lying even though I explained the whole story. She asked why I waited two days to call and I explained that I only saw the receipt Bc I was about to throw it away. She told me TWICE that I would have to come in and show her who the girl was that rang me up! Now the girl that rang me up was not the one that took my order. I stated that I absolutely would not go in there and point someone out and that was not my position to do so. When I disputed this- the lady literally turned her whole story around and said that wasn't what she said... but it was Maybe she realized how ridiculous that sounded. I said I would go in the next day w my receipt but I would not point out a worker Bc that's so terrible to do to someone. I wasn't going to go in there looking for drama. Either they refund my money Bc they did charge twice for a sandwich (this showing either the workers don't communicate or they are told to rip people off as much as they can) or they can even give me $6.50 worth of food. She said, "We'll see when you get here." Needless to say, I never went there but as you can, I did include the receipt that yes, I still have. I was just so disgusted by the accusatory way she treated me for a freakin $6 sandwich and how I would have to wild goose chase and point fingers at workers rather than be kind and professional and not pass judgement so quickly. If I was looking to rip them off I would've went in there without a receipt and demanded something. Instead I called and had a receipt and I'm sure they have copies of receipts in their records. They could've done some work on their part and saw that they charged twice within a ten minute time period for the same sandwich. Instead, the lady treated me like a liar and was going to make me go in there and prove my case. No way! I just won't go there anymore. That's how that goes. I really wish the lady would've treated me nicer Bc I love supporting small businesses- maybe they should read the reviews about how rude they treat people and take a closer look for improvement purposes, Bc in Linden, businesses come and go and it's the ones that treat their customers the best that stay- like Big Blues, Grill Diner, the Long standing Father & Son. All examples of businesses that treat or treated their customers well and have went nowhere. Fighting w customers over $6 makes a business lose way more money than that $6 in the long run. Shoot - they could've given me a couple empanadas or even the chicken sandwich that I paid for without ever having and I would've still patronized their establishment and would have a good feeling about them. There's a review here about a woman who bought steak and the owner treated her sooooo terribly or how people ordered things for parties and the orders were messed up. It's sad but I think we can expect this place to but last forever and maybe then they will learn the in order for a business to prosper, you must treat the customer w dignity.

    TOO much cheese for me.
