Dawns NY Bakery on Central

I've loved everything I have eaten from here! I get lots of treats and am always satisfied. I tried the sesame bread and it was soft and light. The young man behind the counter is so sweet and helpful!

Highly recommend! If you are from the East Coast, this is a little slice of home. Everything is wonderful.

Always worth the visit! The staff is super pleasant and it’s such a win having a talented local baker nearby. Stop wasting your time reading reviews and go grab yourself a sweet treat you won’t regret.
P.S. Save me an apple danish

Great NY style bakery. Awesome people. Awesome pastries and baked breads. Got to try this place.

Delicious sweets and pastries, the staff were extremely helpful and welcoming and sooo generous! They gave us an extra treat and I’m so thankful. Be sure to give them a visit and try their mini cheesecakes! ❤️

What a great find. Some of the best pastries I have had in a long time. Incredible prices. Very impressed

First visit to this neighborhood bakery. They offer a fantastic selection of breads, cookies, pastries, pies and cakes. We purchased lemon and blueberry hand pies a croissant and some mini eclairs. The hand pies were excellent - flaky crust and tasty filling. The croissant was very good - wonderful crunch on top and light and fluffy inside.
The choux pastry and chocolate on the eclair were great, but the filling was disappointing.I was expecting a bavarian or pastry cream, but this filling was like glue. Very thick and fell out in a clump and very sweet but flavorless. The service was excellent. The young lady at the counter was pleasant, attentive and we loved the attention to detail with the red and white bakery string on the box. We will definitely, return and try other items.

Some of the best pastries we've had in a long time.

The best in AZ.

We wish, wish, wish you were closer! We love everything at Dawn's. ❤️

Ordered a birthday cake here and wasn't aware it has to be 2 days in advance but the lady still was able to help take care of me. I appreciate it so much and the cake came out amazing!! Couldn't have been more perfect, definitely going to come back here again 🤍🎂 thank you again!

Stopped in for the first time in search of a Boston Creame Donut for my Wife. To our surprise there was one left. Also purchased a Sticky Bun as well. Fruit Tart caught my eye, so it had to come along as well... Best Cinnamon Roll with Pecans I'd ever had. My Wife gave her Boston Creame a thumbs up as well. ....
Sigh 😔! The Fruit Tart was delicious, and both my wife and myself were pleasantly surprised by the bedded crunchy cookie.
So surprised that we took we took out two children to get donuts the following morning. I just had to let them taste the (seemingly) healthiest pastry in the shoppe. The Fruit Tarts !!!

To my disappointment however my children did care much for them past the fruits on top. The bedded crunchy cookie had ran its course. Coming in at a sloppy, soggy, creame saturated last place.

All three of our Tarts were soggy. After trashing the half eaten leftovers. I went inside to make the kind young ladies aware of the day old Fruit Tarts. I was told that they were made fresh, but she was kind enough to check them for herself.
"Yes they are soggy" she said to me, apologized. Yet offered no form of compensation for my purchases. I'd think, that at these prices. A complementary Glazed Donut would be such a kind gesture, to say the least.
However there was none.

Went in this morning to get that BC, for my Wife, as well as a Cherry Cheesecake Cupcake. Got myself a pineapple upside down cake. Told the same young man who had first serviced me during my first visit. However although he apologized as well. Still no compensation, 😕 of any sort. However he might've snuck in a $1 off discount, without telling me 🤔.

Not sure if the bottom edge of the PUC was supposed to be burnt, but I ate it anyway.
Made myself a large hot Moringa, turmeric , and black pepper tea to wash it down with. Took that burnt taste away almost instantly.

Oh well, I guess here in Phoenix.
That's just how the cookie(s) crumbles 🤷🏾‍♂️!

It’s about time we found a true NY Bakery in our neighborhood! No place in the 31 years that I’ve lived in AZ has been as good as them. “All” the cookies, bread, rolls etc, were fresh & favorable. Just like home, Brooklyn, NY. As good, if not better than Luigi Alba’s on 18th Avenue in Bensonhurst back in the day.
Honestly, this place is phenomenal, clean and their customer service is impeccable.
Lorenzo is so nice, friendly and pleasant to speak with! Dawn’s NY Bakery is a diamond in the rough. To all you back east peeps, this place is a gem. Don’t miss out on giving them a try. You will not be disappointed.
Ciao for now, (AKA) Linda
