“(Note: This review is for the Albany Ave. location) This won't be a popular review. For decades my family would frequent Scott's Bakery. We loved everything that they offered (hardo bread, beef patty, coco bread, plantain tart and so on). When I said we liked EVERYTHING, I mean it. Everything was on point!! Yesterday was my first time (and last time) going into Scott's in about a decade plus. It is clear that management has changed (if not management, something has gone horribly wrong). The shell of the patty was beyond thick and there was little meat in it. The coco bread was beyond disgusting! It was a flavorless clump of undercooked dough. You know how coco bread is supposed to taste. It didn't taste like that at all. It seems as though they've cut corners on their peanut punch which had a gell-like texture. The BEST part of everything that I purchased was the Cola Champagne. As long as they continue to use the same distributor they can't mess that up. Maybe they had a bad day. I won't be spending money to find out.“

“muy bueno todo lo recomiendo“

“One of the few remaining traditional Portuguese bakery in our area. Family owned and still managed by the family.

Since my trip to Portugal in 2022 this has become my go to place to purchase hard to find items. Friendly and pleasant location with great fresh rolls and other items.

I’ve become a repeating customer.“

“Excelente comida y variedad pero deberían postear sus platos más temprano sobre todo los fines de semana“

“Melhor lanche da área! Um atendimento maravilhoso e sempre agradável. Além dos lanches os bolos e doces são perfeitos. Super recomendo!“

“Absolutely love this place! My family’s been coming here for years. Everyone is always so welcoming and nice and the food and drinks are great! We’ve always felt so welcomed here and my dad still remembers it fondly even though he now lives all the way in Wisconsin. I’m happy I get to still get to go and get my favorite breakfast foods there“

“Right in my neighborhood. Cordial treatment and pleasant atmosphere. The “El Isabelino” sandwich was excellent, tasty and at a good price. The delicious Boricua-style coffee with milk, along with a guava cake, divine. At the next one, I order the sandwiches, cupcakes and sweets to pick them up and take them to the family. Isabela Bakery and Isabelinos, welcome to Maple Avenue in Hartford, CT.“

“Love the sandwiches. Nice employees they just dont speak English well but they try. Wish they didnt stop selling orange juice. You have to go to another store to get beverages that goes well with a breakfast store as in orange juice or apple juice espically if you dont drink coffee.“
