“We're new to the neighborhood and are delighted to discover this outstanding bakery!Came in yesterday and bought 2 dozen of the filled cookies (raspberry, apricot, chocolate & caramel) to treat my staff with. The cookies vanished in moments and everyone thought they were delicious!The khachipuri with za'atar and potato bureka were delicious. The khachipuri was soft with a flavorful mix of cheeses; the bureka had a flaky and crispy exterior with a perfectly seasoned mashed potato filling!So happy to have found you.“

“We made it right on time, as kitchen closes 15 minutes before closing. Food came out hot and quickly. The banh mi was insane, amazinf flavor and really nice presentation. Their salad and dressing is also so good!! Really cute corner in the entrance with some gifty items and cute greeting cards. Bakery items looked amazing, will try next time. Extensive drink/coffee/tea menu. Clean bathrooms. Really looking forward to coming back :)Dietary restrictions: Vegan and gluten free“

“Love this place all seasons of the year! Lots of cute animals, and super wholesome vibes! In the summer, the cat will roam around and ask for pets from visitors and is adorable, very friendly and soft :)The lunch menu isn’t big, but all the options are delicious and reasonably priced. I often order the Mediterranean wrap with falafel and it comes with a huge side salad. In the bakery, I love their apple cider donuts and irish soda bread—the bread was warm when we got it and it paired perfectly with the meal we ate. I also am a fan of how there’s a compost bin for food that doesn’t get eaten.“

“On July 22nd, 2023 we had our wedding at Arrow Park in Monroe, New York. The Cake Lady came highly recommended for a wedding cake and we scheduled an appointment to meet with them. The Cake Lady staff was attentive, accommodating, answered all of our questions and provided great recommendations to fit our needs.The cake they prepared for us exceeded our expectation. It was perfect. From the look to the taste, The Cake Lady nailed it.“

“Always like coming here. A bit out of the way but good coffee, food, and atmosphere. Only issue were the sandwiches (ordered 4 different options) all were VERY HEAVILY toasted in butter. Way too much and leaves it very greasy. Coffee was nice and hot and all the staff were super friendly and helpful.“

“I’ve gotten cupcakes from Antonio twice now and both times were amazing. I got them for my baby shower and I had guests asking where they’re from because how delicious! I got cupcakes again this weekend for my sons 1st birthday, we called him friday asking for 60 cupcakes for saturday and with no hesitation he said yes and had our absolutely delicious cupcakes ready for my sons party at 11:30am given less than a days notice! When guests were told they were the same from the baby shower everyone swarmed the cupcakes! Antonio is so kind, professional, and punctual. I can’t imagine ever going anywhere else! I will always give him business! Even if you just drop in on a day he’s open, he’s always got some great cupcakes ready to go and i love the macaroons as well!“

“You can’t go wrong with this choice. The food is all excellent, and really fresh. They bake their own pastries, and the Omelettes are to die for. The service is sublime and quick. The cashier, and waitress are extremely friendly. The atmosphere is perfect. It welcomes you in like a warm blanket and keeps you feeling like you have known this place your entire life. This is a must go if you are anywhere close. I will be coming back for sure.“

“Imagine it is a few days before a wedding and the person making your cake has to back out due to a health emergency…We cold-called Porges and they were able to make two cakes for us. No prior tastings and sight unseen until the venue placed them on display. They were both beautiful and delicious!!!! Highly recommend!“

“Small and compact bakery with great bread , variety of cookies and great cannoli. Cranberry walnut bread one of the best I had in a while, and not to forget the rugelach crispy but soft , just the right touch of sugar and cinnamon . If you find yourself upstate NY and in a need of true Brooklyn/Queens style bread you found the right spot.“
