50 Best Bakeries in Flushing

“It's been a hot hot hot minute since I came here after I moved to Long Island Suburbs. My son's big day today and I took a trip here to pick up my custom strawberry cake layered with their famous lightly sweetened freshly whipped cakes. When you step inside It's as if you step back in time. My mom first took me here when I was 11 or 12 and this place still look the same. The bakery captures a lot of customers from the surrounding businesses such as the hospital. It's great to see a flow a diverse crowd visiting this Gem. I also picked up half dozen curry beef pastry and their chicken rolls. I took a bite and taste just like my first time eating them in the 1990s when I was a little boy. When I want a good delicious healthier cake I come to Yeh's.“

“SHAKALAKA Bakery in Flushing is one of the more visually polished modern Chinese bakeries in the area and a reliable stop if you’re looking for cakes, pastries, or grab-and-go sweets that feel a bit more updated compared to traditional bakeries nearby.

The mango-based cakes are the most consistent thing here. They’re light, creamy, and built around fresh fruit rather than overly heavy frosting, which makes them easy to finish even after a full meal. The matcha cake also works well, leaning more milky than bitter, with a soft sponge that holds its structure without feeling dry. The pork floss cakes are one of the more interesting savory-sweet options, and they’re better than expected if you’re used to standard bakery versions since they don’t go overboard on sweetness.

The croissants and egg tarts are solid supporting items rather than the main reason to come. The croissants are flaky with a noticeable butter layer, and the egg tarts are best when eaten warm since the custard tightens up when cold. The purple rice desserts are heavier but work if you want something more filling and texturally different from the fruit cakes.

Service is generally efficient even when the bakery is busy, and the layout is set up for quick selection rather than lingering. Prices sit a bit higher than older-style Flushing bakeries, but the tradeoff is cleaner presentation, more modern flavor combinations, and consistently fresh-looking cakes.“

“Delicioso todo lo que hacen y la atención y amabilidad de sus empleados.“

“Thank you for the beautiful and very delicious birthday cake for my daughter. It was spectacular!“

“The pasties are delicious and I had the green mango and pineapple tea so good! Everything is very fresh! I bought a swirl strawberry bread 🍞 delicious as well! My friend tried the Hong Kong tea and said it was the best she ever had!“

“​A fantastic spot in Flushing for anyone craving a unique and satisfying dessert. The croffles here perfectly capture that buttery, flaky croissant texture on the inside while delivering a satisfying, waffle-like crispiness on the outside. I highly recommend pairing one of their topped croffles with a milk tea or specialty coffee—the combination hits the spot perfectly. The space is clean and inviting, and the service is wonderfully quick. Definitely a great addition to the neighborhood!“

“the cupcakes are so yummy 😋 🥰😇😊😍💜“

“I placed an order for a customized cake and confirmed everything in advance but they forgot the lettering on top of the cake. No one apologized for it and they did not even provide a paper bag to carry the cake.

I appreciate the owner’s sincere apologies and attempts to make things better.“

“Colombian bakery with the best empanadas and many unique pastries from 🇨🇴“

“Ordered the most amazing cake for a party. The white cake was tender and light, the layer of cannoli cream was so fresh and delicious and the chocolate custard layer was chocolatey and perfect. It was beautifully decorated covered in rosettes and the cake looked so elegant. Ordering the next birthday cake from them!“

“Coffee perfection💕 I had a cappuccino directly from Heaven 💕 Spanakopita & pastries outstanding😋“

“My mom and dad come visit me once a year from Venezuela and everytime they come my mom always wants to go get bread at Monreale. Is delicious and the service is always great! They just landed today and the first thing she told me was that she wanted to pass by Monreale to buy some bread 😅 it has definitely made an impact. Specially since they know good bread in the US is hard to find!“

“I looked through social media and came across Bao’s Pastry in Flushing so I decided to give it a try. When I first walked in, I noticed that it has an open pastry bar where you can see the whole process behind all of the delicious cookies and pastries. The staff also wear personal protective equipment while preparing the pastries and keeping the work area clean.

I purchased a lot of pastries to bring back home after my vacation. However, I noticed that the shelf life of most of the pastries was only a day or a few days which was a little disappointin, since I was hoping they would last longer. They didn’t taste as good after the shelf life date had passed so I would definitely give them another try next time I visit New York.“

“Delicious and the service is always top notch!!“

“Prześliczny i przepyszny tort z brzoskwiniami i nutella 😍 Zamówiliśmy na nasze wesele i goście byli zachwyceni 🥰 Dziękujemy serdecznie na pewno będziemy wszystkim polecać 🤗“

“Yummy 😋 those pumpkin 🎃 muffins are so good 😊“

“Apollo is one of my fave bakeries in flushing Chinatown. It’s Taiwanese and related to Mr. Tu close by!

It’s tiny, but it’s got so much packed into it! They make my favorite taro bao with pineapple top, plus the pineapple cakes that are individually wrapped (凤梨酥） are some of my all time fave locally made ones in NYC. Service
Is fast and efficient, but friendly. Cash only. Tiny shop, so don’t linger too long for space reasons!“

“Really good bagel spot! The store is always clean and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. Everyone is nice and you can tell they actually care about the customers.

The food is honestly so good. The bagels are fresh, everything is made well, and the portions are good too. I’ve gotten breakfast here a few times now and it’s always been great. It’s one of those places where you leave feeling like you actually got your money’s worth.

I also really appreciate how clean everything is. Sometimes that’s something you don’t think about until you walk into a place that isn’t clean, so it definitely makes a difference here.

Overall, great food, great service, and a really nice atmosphere. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to and would recommend to anyone looking for a good bagel and breakfast!“

“Quán view ok Có cây Nho to va hồ cá đẹp Nuoc uong cung ok“

“Friendly service. Very surprised how inexpensive it was. Hope the nice man upfront did not make a mistake. Everything delicious. Pumpkin as well as potatoes knish the best. Just like my long past aunt Sadie use to make. Stop by spend some money here. Trust me you will feel like I do. A better bargain you will not get“

“I love this cafe! It has such a cozy energy with great drink and food options. I get the chai here at least once a week, I’ve tried a lot of chais in the area and this is the first I’ve loved. My friends had gotten the boba smoothies and they like them. I like the crème brûlée macaroon. And we’ve tried some of the pastries too, haven’t had a bad experience.“

“The pork sung bolo bun was tender, savory and fluffy. The puff pastry cake was simple, spongy and goes well with coffee. Pineapple cake was buttery and sweet pineapple. My preference is a tad more well done pineapple cake with more of a tart flavor but still good go to for them in nyc.“

“It's a little farther away from Flushing Main St. Subway station so we had to take the bus to get here. The staff were friendly and the BBQ pork buns were delicious but to me the taste was not worth taking a bus ride for. There weren't many other shops nearby to explore either. 4/5 although I wish I could rate this place higher 🫠“

“I met the owner last time I was there with some friends He stop by to ask how things were going and talked for a bit, Great guy I we said we would definitely be going there more often.“

“I really enjoy going to this spot it’s my second time going and i will be going back again the flavor is good not too strong, the texture is also good and the amount is also good ❤️❤️ this is another place I can never get tired of.“

“I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place! ❤ I’m lactose intolerant, and since moving to America I’ve honestly never found lactose-free desserts this good. Everything I tried was absolutely delicious — you would never guess they were made without dairy!

It’s so hard to find desserts that are both lactose-free AND genuinely delicious, and this place completely exceeded my expectations. You can really taste the quality and care in everything they make.

I’m so happy I found this place and I will definitely be coming back! Thank you for making desserts that people with lactose intolerance can actually enjoy without feeling like they’re missing out. ❤

Dessert are amazing!!!!“

“our go-to for holidays, birthdays, and all celebrations. the rainbow cookies are a favorite, really everything they make is delicious.“

“the pan con chicharon was amazing, el jugo de dress con leche was tasty and fresh and most of all the customer service. Jorge was an amazing host. best of all we left with alfajores. will be back for lomo saltado.“

“Excellent columbian bakery the bread is completely fresh. Food is excellent. The soup are amazing. How recommended

Parking: My recommendation is to find a nearby lot with parking. Parking is impossible around that area but again the restaurant is amazing. Actual food highly recommended.“

“Thank you Maria and Antonio for making my daughter’s Communion cake just what I wanted and more! Almost 20 years, I believe, we have been customers of yours and I always recommend you! Cakes are the freshest around! Thank you again!! You made her 1st Birthday cake too!! Time flies!“

“Made to order, the couple work as team to get the orders ready, calmly, cute to see.

Wait Time can be longer because they do make them fresh when orders are received. It’s a very crispy snack to eat, and many flavors. Good to try them out, and not many places actually sells these.“

“If you're in the mood for iced coffee or bubble tea, then look no further than Rainbow! They have one of the best iced coffees around along with other beverages. I'd highly recommend it for their superb service and customer friendly staff“

“This place is one of my favorite places to come to for breakfast. Its a korean cafe offering everything you would get at paris baguette and what you would order at a deli. All the counter folks speak both korean and english and theyre courteous. The older korean folks like to come here and gather here in the mornings while a mix of customers for the cakes, breakfast food and their coffees. My only negative is since th egg price hike, theyve doubled everything in price. The prices have gone down and yet, their prices stay the same. All in all, id come back here to treat myself and the family every now and then.“

“Fully Bakery Corporation in Elmhurst is a great local spot for freshly made sandwiches and a wide variety of baked goods. Everything here tastes fresh and homemade, and you can tell they take pride in what they make. The egg tart is especially good.
They have a nice selection of breads, buns, and pastries, so it’s easy to find something new to try each visit. The staff is quick and efficient, and service moves fast even when it’s busy. Just a heads up that this is a cash-only bakery, so make sure to bring some cash with you. Overall, it’s a solid neighborhood bakery and definitely worth stopping by if you’re in Elmhurst.“

“Small neighborhood, whole in the wall kind of place. We were so pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. We went before noon and had egg platter breakfast and the tempura udon. Weird combo but worked somehow. Breakfast was good but the udon was sooo good! Brother was delicious! I think it beats many of the udons expensive restaurants. It will be one of our staple places for breakfast“

“I love going to this location. The two guys that work there are always nice, polite and helpful. There's also a middle aged Asian lady that's there and shes always nice, polite and helpful also. The rest of the staff seem to be new often. But everything at this location is always fresh and I love that they have the sliced cakes and some of the other pastries inside casings that employees retrieve for customers. Some other locations have the sliced cake and other pastries in open cases and one time I saw a little girl touching everything in the cake case after she was playing in the park/playground because she was carrying a ball with her but her sister or babysitter only allowed her to take one, so she grabbed a different pastry from the case.“

“I ordered the Halloween donut with the cookies and cream cream. and when I arrived to pickup my order i was informed by AV unfortunately they didn't have any more and he offered me to pick something else to substitute. I asked him does the Halloween one run out quick and he was nice enough to explain that alot of times the limited flavors ones runs out quick because everyone wants to try them and even more so for this donut because they actually crush oreo cookies to make it and that alot of people like oreos. And he asked me if id like my pastries boxed I just requested bag because dont want to waste a box. He provided great service and was very pleasant.“

“The final fermentation temperature for the croissants is only about 35 degrees, not 38 degrees, because the temperature is too high and the cream may melt out of the dough. I could see that the store had just mastered the right temperature and the food was delicious“

“las arepas muy deliciosas.“

“Bought a simple Rice, Beans and Grilled chicken combo. Those where the best beans and grilled chicken (no hate on the rice though) Ive ever tasted from any restaurant (and I got enough for an extra day). They tasted like the homemade meals back in my island.
I also consistently bought breakfast here when working in the area and it was consistently great.“

“Ordered macaroni ham soup, satay beef egg sandwich, and corned beef sandwich both toasted. All three amazing! Fast service quality food and can tell it’s made with care to enhance flavor. Sandwiches both had light and fluffy eggs with excellent salt levels and sauce. Would definitely recommend you do not pass the ham macaroni soup. The sesame oil added gives a light aromatic that’s perfectly subtle with exceptional cooked noodles. A 10/10 comfort foods I would eat any time of day. Excellent price!“

“Yummy bread pandebono and coffes and vanilla croissants. Rico cafe y pan de bonos“

“This is very good Greek food. We have been to Mythos several times with groups, we are mostly from Greece. Paul the owner is a gentleman and his restaurant has not disappointed. Beefteki and Souvlaki are always excellent and chicken was prepared perfectly. Great place for a family dinner.“

“Renown for ethnic menu lunch combo meal, it isn't just a bakery. Good-sized portions at a fair price. Spacious with plenty of seating BUT has small set of steps to descend, as it's what's called an above ground basement.
Ambience is subdued blue collar / construction Latin American, noise level is low- Ecuadorians aren't usually loud or boisterous.“

“We stopped by Fay Da Bakery in Flushing and tried their coffee and mango mochi. The coffee was surprisingly good — it actually had a nice coffee flavor and was very smooth, not watery or bitter. We really liked it. The mango mochi was also very soft, much better than some places where the mochi can be a little hard. The flavor was good too.

My only complaint is the mango inside. The mango pieces were so tiny that it almost felt like there was barely any real mango in it. Still tasty, but I do wish they added more mango. Overall, not bad, especially for the coffee and the soft mochi.“

“This is a convenient location for dim sum due to it's location outside of the busy and congested downtown Flushing area. It's right off the LIE highway on exit 23. It was formally Palace Diner for a number of years. There is valet parking behind the restaurant, as well as parking in front and on the streets. Both times I've been here, the wait time has been short despite it usually being packed. As with most dim sum restaurants, expect to be potentially seated with other people at the same table. Ask for the chrysanthemum tea, which is lighter and sweeter than the usual black tea that's served in Chinese restaurants. Dim sum carts are constantly going around so you're never short of waiting for food to come. Just tell the cart ladies what you want or point to it. There is staff that occasionally comes by to change out your plate for a clean one and bring you another fresh pot of tea. Service is quick and on point. There is a separate take-out location on side of the place.“
