About Aby's Bakery

Aby's Bakery is a charming bakery located on Baker Street in West Hartford. The bakery offers a variety of sweet and savory treats, including Argentinian cookies and pastries, fruit tarts, pies, sandwiches, and empanadas. The bakery's showcases display an assortment of baked goods, including iced cookies with animal designs, turnovers, croissants, and small chocolate cookies known as Alfajores. The Alfajores have a dulce de leche layer of frosting between two cookies and are smothered in chocolate. The bakery also sells sandwiches and empanadas, making it a great place to grab a delicious lunch with dessert. Customers praise the bakery for its freshly made goods and authentic Argentinian flavors. Many find the croissants to be the best in the area, describing them as a piece of heaven. The interior offers no hints of the royal delights inside, but those who visit discover a treasure of delicate, exquisite Argentine pastries following European tradition. The bakery is known as Connecticut’s best-kept secret. Visitors often try items like alfajores cookies, guava stuffed into turnover pastry, butterfly-wings (sometimes called elephant ears), and beef empanadas, all expertly made with great attention to detail. The cappuccino served there is also highly praised, with foam design and rich flavor. Customers also recommend trying the rolls, which are said to be delectable. The bakery's owner, Celia, has been working here daily for many years, and it is recognized as the first Argentine bakery in the state, open since 1995. Prices are excellent, with many items costing under $12, making it a favorite spot for both locals and visitors seeking high-quality baked goods and authentic flavors. While it may take a few minutes to order and receive food, the wait is well worth it for the charming atmosphere and delicious treats.
