15 Best Bakeries in Ridgewood

“I placed an order late Saturday night and waited an hour but Door Dash canceled the order and my sweets never arrived. I tried again Sunday morning and I was delighted to receive what I ordered in addition to some extra treats for the trouble from the previous night. So very much appreciated. Everything was absolutely delicious. Thank you so much.“

“Fantastic experience. The environment is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were very attentive, friendly, and gave great recommendations. The pastries (cherry turnover, alfajor and vanilla cream puff) were all delicious and the coffee was so good.“

“Man… this is one of the best businesses in existence. I’ve gotten various cakes from them over the years , and every single time they have been consistently delicious, rich, and exuberant. The tres leches is not too sweet, and the frosting complements the cake as well. It’s overall a very well rounded cake.

The service is spectacular as well — they can prepare an order for you in no time, and will decorate it and ensure that it is beautiful. All the while being as friendly as possible.

And the price, is more than fair.

It truly is rare nowadays to find businesses who are in it to be good business owners, and I find this bakery to be the cream of the crop. I love them .“

“Love this local Ecuadorian restaurant! Friendly service and GREAT food. 🇪🇨
I always get a bunch of empanadas: Beef, cheese, chicken, they’re all scrumptious and you must indulge with their green sauce that’s got a good kick to it.
Pastries? 🥐 I love their guava cheese danish or whatever it’s called. Give them a try if you’re in the area! 👍“

“The cakes at this place are amazing and affordable compared to the crazy quotes you’ll receive from other bakeries in the area. What I love about them is that they will take on any challenge when it comes to cake design. They are my family’s go to and I would order this cake for any event in NYC. I’ve ordered cakes from them for parties I’ve planned in Bushwick, the Bronx and Harlem. They are the best!“

“Have very much enjoyed everything I have bought. Can't wait to go back tomorrow for more. Everyone from the owner on down have been friendly and helpful. I really do enjoy going to Grimaldis, it stands out from all the other bakeries.“

“This was a great bagel, it lived up to the “wow” in its name hahaha. In 2015 my dad hit someone with his car. My dad said he was dead but I saw him still breathing. We dragged him into the woods and left him there. I saw his wife crying on TV a few days later. I didn’t say anything and mu dad was never caught. He’s a congressman. Wow!“

“Different, welcoming and quaint.“

“very nice staff,love the milkshakes here!“

“It's a small place, I personally like small restaurants, my plate was simple but very good. Had the turkey melt with bacon and avocado on multi grain bread with fries very good. The place was clean and a very nice server. My mother had a torta of steak, and it was delicious.“

“I’ve been coming to this bakery since I was a kid. I grew up right on Grove. The scent of the bread baking is such a deep and nurturing scent, you can smell it late in the evening and early in the wee hours of the morning at the most concentrated. The mafalde rolls are my favorite and I always look for them. They have so many great cakes, pastries, cookies, and specialty seasonal items. They also carry panettone and cookies made up to take for gifts.“

“muy buena la comida recomendado“
