Purdy Hill Bakery & Deli LLC

Today I went to pickup Portuguese rolls which are very good, and while we were there, decided to buy some pastries. We got two small Eclairs and a small bread pudding pastry. The bread pudding pastry exterior was hard and the inside was dry. I then tried warming it up for a few seconds in the microwave to “bring it back to life” but it did not improve. I tried a bite and it tasted awful. The Eclairs were also very hard and dry, definitely not fresh either.

An absolute MUST! There is this chocolate cake roll with mousse inside, looks like a log covered with chocolate and more choc shavings on top. I mean chocolate heaven. OUTSTANDING! And the presentation is a Show Stopping WOW! 2 sizes to choose frm. Carrot cake melts in ur mouth and everyone loves the canolies! Dont bother to bake. Just run here! I brought that choc mouse roll to someones house for dinner on Sat nite and you should have seen their eyes when i opened the box! Next time I'll remember to take a photo but you can see it in their online menu.

Lemon meringue pie is the best. Great pastries and bread

The pastries and coffee are delicious. The staff were very friendly and the place spotless. I had a bagel with cream cheese toasted as I had asked and very fresh.

One of my favorite bakery items is cannoli. Not always crisp & fresh.

Poor customer service

Great bakery but they charge you more if you use a credit card. In ct it is not suppose to be done, so now cash only for me, but they got the best rye bread and rolls!

This place is amazing. Coming from NY and comparing… just as good or better than Italian bakery’s in NY.

Last time I go here. Stopped in this morning because it was convenient. First thing I noticed was no prices. Ended up paying 45% more than I pay at my regular bakery. And the quality was not as good.

Most of the desserts -- especially the brownies --are always fantastic. Recently, I got there with only a minute to spare, having called earlier. The lady who served me had kept my order aside, and I was able to get it. I went the next day as well, and I will keep on going to Purdy Hill Bakery for a long time.

Vegetarian options: Most items have eggs (i.e., not vegan), but vegetarians like myself should be fine.

I go for the #12 italian sandwich from the deli counter which is awesome. I cannot review the sweet treats as I haven’t tried any. Counter service is slow because they get many customers on lunch hour and it takes a bit to make the sandwiches. That’s a good thing. This isnt subway. I will wait. Support this place! Too many garbage chains in the area that cost more and taste awful. Purdy is purdy awesome!

I tried some pastries from this bakery earlier this year in the spring and was extremely disappointed. I gave them a second chance last week but was met with dissatisfaction yet again.

Both times I got a mixed variety of pastries like their cheesecake, brownie, cake, etc. Both times every single item tasted awful and had this weird flavor, like it had been sitting in the bakery case for weeks. The pastries had potential to taste great if they weren’t so old. It seems they just sit in the case getting that disgusting stale flavor. Completely inedible. I even tried a packaged coffee cake and it was dry as a bone. Waste of money.

The place looks nice but I just had the worst breakfast sandwich of my LIFE,
The BEC was microwaved, the egg was tiny, mushy and cold, the bacon was discolored and mostly raw.
Id be suprised if I didnt get sick.

And thats just the food, the staffs attitude wasnt welcoming either.

Quality was poor. Pastries purchased were stale (served on same day), and no manager available (not even by phone?). Got a store credit for the returned pastries (not the remnants that were shuffled into the garbage by my guests). No apology or other reaction, indicating this type of thing is normal. Not wasting my money on this over-priced, cash-grab, scam-of-a-bakery…
