“Love them! Oh how I wish I would round the corner and behold The Cupcake Truck!!! Sadly those days are gone. Worthy of the drive to East Haven I know what a pain Longing for the good old days when I could just roll up for some cupcakes it was so convenient. The flavors are delicious and frosting not too sweet.“

“a pues la verdad sus comidas son muy sabrosas y la atención es.muy buena son muy amables sigan así 👍👍“

“So much fun at Cannoli Class.“

“Angelica is a magician with her work! I was introduced to her a few years back and haven’t gone elsewhere since. From graduation parties, baby showers and even engagement desserts. I can’t imagine a party without her sweets. Her treats are always the talk of the party!“

“I highly recommend Jennifer's Ice Cream! Not only do they have a large selection of tasty ice creams, but they also have dairy-free Italian Ice for me! Look no further if you're after a yummy treat with a reasonable price tag!“

“The food was tasty and fairly priced. Lots of original recipes and overall lots of healthy options. I highly recommend getting takeout from here. You can dine in but most staff don’t speak English (Spanish only) which wasn’t my case. They had a soccer match playing on screen which was entertaining but a bit too loud“

“The employees at the North Haven store are always friendly, helpful and fast. I've never had an issue or mix-up with my order and the cookies, as always, are scrumptious. I particularly like their rewards program . Points add up fast and you get frequent and substantial discounts without being constantly bombarded by texts and emails or having to buy a million cookies first.“

“Their Stuffed Breads are the best! 5 Star!“

“omg, I love your "pudding pies" I don't know how to spell the name you call them when I lived in Norwich we would always go for a ride to New Haven and get them !!! my brother still goes when he's in New Haven can't resist !!! Best Bakery“

“I ordered a few trays of cookies for a party I was hosting. I called, a little flustered because I was feeling very last minute. I explained how many people I was hosting and that I didn’t know what or how many to order. They were unbelievably patient with me and told me they would take care of it. And did they ever!!!! Freshly baked, beautifully presented, and SO DELICIOUS! I was thrilled. Guests impressed. Delightful variety. I will be back and I highly recommend you check them out!!!“

“First time trying the cupcakes. Tried the pistachio. It was to die for. Will be stopping in more often“

“We ordered cupcakes for two different parties in one weekend and Sweet Mary’s did not disappoint. Great, yummy, moist cupcakes and terrific service. Sweet Mary’s is the best for cupcakes hands down!!!“

“I would like to share my recent experience at Saray Bakery. A couple of days ago I placed my order over the phone and went to pick up on Thursday. There was a mistake with my order and it wasn’t ready. The employees seemed very apoplectic and told me to please give them 15 minutes and they will fix it. Even tho I was really in a rush i decided to wait. The ladies at the counter were so hospitable that you couldn’t be mad at them. The offered me a free coffee and 2 cookies. One lady came over to apologize again and explained the situation while the other lady worked on my order. They make my order quickly and put in another free pastry to go. That was so nice! At the end it’s not the mistake that matters it’s how they handled it and how they made me feel! Thank you lovely ladies at Saray Bakery I will be back :)“

“Absolutely love their cakes, and completely blown away with their designs, I tell them what i want or idea and they make it come to reality, its a great feeling to be able to not only trust them with designs and beauty but the taste of their cakes are delicious!!. Definitely a place I will continue going back to ..Thank You JCakes for making my past few parties a success with you amazing 🎂“

“My husband surprised me with a Princess cake. I mentioned I’d love to try one after seeing it in a baking show. He searched online and Marjolaine’s was the only place he could find. He drove over an hour to pick it up and it was well worth the drive! We just picked up a Dacquoise. This one was a request from our daughter. We tried a smaller version that was in the case. It was absolutely delicious! So light and airy and the flavor was divine! We are driving this cake all the way to NC and are 100% certain that our daughter will be thrilled ! We are heading back in the beginning of April for a Marjolaine for our daughter in law. It is well worth the trip!!!“

“Steve did our wedding cake on 10/11/25 and it was delicious ! From our first meeting with him he was very attentive, and drew up exactly the type of cake we were looking for. He literally made my Pinterest cake photo into reality. The cake not only looked stunning but it tasted so good too. The cake was so fresh and flavorful. The frosting was delicious. Our guests were raving about it ! We are so happy we chose DiSorbo’s for our wedding cake! 11/10 would recommend DiSorbo’s for your wedding cake or any cake you need ! Thank you Steve!“

“Milani's did cookie boxes for my daughter's communion. Such beautiful presentations.“

“So I went over a friends house for dinner and he had a Lupi's Bread on the table, Looked great. Tasted better. He told me about this little bakery in New Haven at 169 Washington Ave Lupi's Marchigiano Bakery. I went the next day for another Bread where I met Larry Lupi a true gentleman. His grandfather started the Bakery in 1900 when he came over from Italy, and now is being run by Larry and his brother Peter. So If you want to taste a little piece of heaven, stop by Lupi's and for a few bucks you can.
Thanks Larry and Pete,
Vinny“

“I love their large variety of cakes, each one is so beautiful and delicious you want to buy them all!! The cookies are awesome. Pumpkin Cheesecake was decadent! 👍🏻“

“Great wait staff Food was delish“

“This was my very first time in this one particular and I was very much impressed with its cleanliness, elegance, and a majority of the presentation of their baked goods. 4 out of 5!!!! I’m terribly sorry that you lost a star but that matcha brownie tasted absolutely disgusting. Never again will I buy it!!! Sorry sweetheart but it’s lacking sugar. However I do love the sweet cream filled bread you sold me. Thank you very much for helping me figure out what I want for breakfast tomorrow. Lastly, the cream green tea cake was absolutely divine. All this from being served by an incredibly gorgeous and really cashier/manager who I had to tip handsomely. I’ll definitely stop by on payday to give their specialty caffeinated drinks a try.“

“We ordered two cakes from Sweets on Main to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. Not only was the owner so nice, pick up was a breeze and the cakes were delicious. No pic of the GF chocolate cake but there was not a piece leftover. The strawberry mascarpone was light and refreshing - perfect for our one year old who we don’t want having a lot of sugar. Will definitely be using Sweets on Main again!“

“Ok if you’re looking for some bougie patisserie this isn’t it HOWEVER, this place has the character, charm and personal touch that has been all but destroyed in our culture. Andrew is the best. His baked goods are a lost art and so is the feel of his shop. It is as unique and retro as he is and that is a GOOD thing. He’s one of the few left that knows his customers by name as they walk in and strive to make sure everyone is treated well sure he takes weirdly long vacations and leaves hilarious messages on his phone. But that’s the appeal of this bakery. They make Swedish pastries and bread that you can’t find anywhere. But above all it’s Andrew and his family run bakery. If you want Impersonal Dunkin baked goods baked in a factory in who knows where this ain’t it. Bread and Basket is like visiting Main Street USA that my grandparents reminisced about.Give them a try!!!“

“Cute little coffeeshop with very good coffee“

“I moved 4 years ago, but I know it’s still THE BEST! I started coming her at 16 every Friday to get bread. I’m 51. Meet the family and find out how good they are! You won’t be disappointed.

“OTR DRIVERS With 53 ft trlrs

The drive here is down congested narrow roads with limited space for your turns. Stay alert a lot of low 12 ft bridges surrounding the customer. Follow trucker GPS but don’t rely on it. When you see the customer, You can make a right at the light or go up to the next street and make a right and another right and follow that path around to the yard, whichever’s is easier. Once on the yard, a lot of space to dock. Easy check in. Quick loading. Extremely professional staff.

Leaving the facility you will encounter the same congested narrow streets on your way out. Follow the path the customer gate tells you. You should make a left shortly after going around the curve. To get back to the interstate, make a right at the stop sign and follow that street down maybe 1/2 mile than make another left at the light. Follow that street all the way down and when you see the grocery store on the right, make a left at the light. You will see a sign that tells you which way to get back to the interstate. The last turn to get to the interstate can be tricky. You will come into a light that has strange look 4 way stop and signs that point to the interstate (can be misleading) but Dont go into the neighbourhood that the GPS will try and advise you to go down. Make a wide left turn on the street and you will see the entrance to the interstate maybe 1/4 of mile on the right hand side.

Tandems all the way forward or you will not be able to make your turns.

The community is super understanding and will get out of your way to help you make your turns, just be patient.“

“If i could I would give it 10 stars. So clean. Friendly- no pressure people there. They seem genuinely happy to be there and its refreshing. The treats,, especially the chocolate frosted lemon-filled donuts are the biggest I have seen and so delicious!!!!!“

“Incredible coffee and pastries!“

“I discovered this store when I was High School, around 1977. Graduated 1978 from Wibur Cross. They were on Edgewood Avenue and Platt Street. Then they moved to Whalley Avenue. I still tell people about this store. Always love it. 🥰“

“I got a cake from here 2 years and it was exactly what I wanted (the heart cake). My husband loved the taste and kept mentioning it when it got closer to his birthday this year so I, of course, had to get another one. It was AMAZING! Everyone loved it and a few said it was the best cake they’d ever had. Yellow cake with cheesecake filling and buttercream- highly recommend. Steve was also great with communicating and working through my indecisiveness about the design.“

“(Translated by Google) The cakes are good, everything that Lupita Baker sells is tasty, jealousy, I recommend many thanks to all, good day(Original)Están buenos los pasteles todo lo que vende lupita Baker esta sabroso de betdad celos recomiendo munchas grasias atodos buen dia“

“First time customer, I was very impressed with the quick and friendly service. Food was delicious (I had the pizza and the sushi) and the ratio of fish to rice in the roll was amongst the best I've ever had. Definitely my go-to place next time I'm in New Haven!“

“I feel honored to be apart of the wonderful history of Chestnut. Patty and staff’s warmth, delicious and quality food, and reasonable prices relative to what you get, make this place a staple in New Haven. Sad to see it go, especially considering the genuine community surrounding it. You are loved, Chestnut!

Thank you for everything, Patty ❤️“

“Extremely friendly service, pleasant, relaxed atmosphere, and absolutely delicious baked goods. They have a great variety of cupcakes, desserts, and pastries, and many options for special diets.
