“Pastries by Anne is one of our favorite shops in the neighborhood. You can count on Anne to always greet you with a smile and to have unique and inventive flavors available. I’m a huge fan of both the Thai iced tea cake and the Triple C. She’s also made cakes for our celebrations, which our guests devoured. We are so lucky to live close to such an incredible pastry shop and Anne herself is the absolute best!“
“I love the concept of this place!!Their offerings are a mash up French baked goods and desserts x Filipino twist. My family has loved their cheesecake and I’ve appreciated the flakiness of their croissants, would love some greens to go on their breakfast sandwiches tho. Please drop and pay a visit! Tucked away near the little neck LIRR station, they have a few spots for parking.“
“At first glance, you would think this shop is just a wholesaler, but to my surprise you can actually buy boxes too!! They have a wide array/variety of sweets and all of them looked heavenyl. The gentleman whowas running the place is extremely professional and helpful. He allowed me to sample 4-5 pieces of the sweet itself. I ended up buying 4 small boxes and 2 big boxes. Toally affordable priced as well! My favorite was definitely the “Mango barfi” which is a milk based sweet. I finally have a place i can go to for all my sweet needs! Especially since it is Ramadan and sweets are necessary for every iftaar.“
“Way more than just an espresso bar. They have a kitchen and bakery and all of the food and deserts are amazing. The best coffee I've ever had as well. The prices are some of the cheapest you can find these days. It's a phenomenal place in every “
“Heard how good Al-Sham’s Knafeh is and let me tell you, those reviews did not lie! Came a day before Ramadan, atmosphere was great, super busy (but now I know why). Got myself a nice big piece of Knafeh and a Medium sized Assorted Baklawa plate! 1000/10 recommend to anyone looking for a killer Knafeh!!“
“We booked our son’s baptism with Frank’s steaks in RVC and they are affiliated with whistle stop for the occasion cake. I was so blown away by this cake I had to come and make a review. It’s so hard to find a good sheet cake for special occasions. The flavor and texture of the cake was so delicious. We chose a chocolate mouse filling and it exceeded our expectations. The cake was so so delicious and beautifully decorated, which is also hard to come by with these types of cakes. I would definitely use them for future occasion cakes. It was perfect and my guests were asking where the cake was from so they could use in the future. Thank you so much whistle stop. :)“
“Found my new favorite place ! The chicken and beef empanada was a 10/10 and paired with that semi spicy red sauce was delightful. I paired my empanada with an Inka Kola. The customer service was beyond and the chef/baker was coming in and out with freshly baked cakes for wholesale. I definitely will be coming back here for their desserts.“
“This old-school Asian bakery serves some of the best sponge cakes that are, you guessed it, not too sweet. Yeh's Bakery has been a staple in Flushing for 36 years. Their Boston Cream Pie is made out of two layers of sponge cake and fresh cream, and is one of their best sellers. If you want it, make sure to come early because sometimes they sell out. It's so light and airy, so soft and fluffy, and so freaking good. Sponge cakes are already good, but sponge cakes with cream are even better. Yeh's also serves slices of some of their light, airy, and soft sponge cakes for $1.70 (sliced flavors like the green tea and vanilla, but not the strawberry or taro). Whole rolls go for $15 each. Cakes start at 8 inches with flavors including vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, green tea, taro, and chestnut. You can even make the cakes into a heart shape! For their egg tarts, their custard is very light and soft. Great for people who don't like their egg tarts too creamy or heavy! Being a Taiwanese bakery, they also sell Taiwanese pineapple cakes at $2 each with two cake rectangles inside. The next time I go to Taiwan, imma eat pineapple cakes like these everyday. Don't forget to bring cash! What we ordered: Boston cream pie $2.75 green tea sponge cake $1.70 egg tart $1.70 Taiwanese pineapple cake $2 Total: $8.15“
“My bias bakery in the area now! So glad I found them!♥️♥️♥️ I tried lot of items.My favorite bread was the ?injeolmi cream bun! Which was red bean paste with soybean-flavored cream. Moist and creamy in each bite.Croissant items were good too, but couldn’t beat my first above. Salt butter ones were good choices.Pretzel was a little bit too soft for me, but the fig and nuts cream cheese was delicious.Last but not the least, ? bingsu was amazing..! It was a little bit pricy, but a huge bowl! The milk shaved ice was sooo rich.The only thing I would critique is coffee. Good coffee bean but the cappuccino was not creamy at all. Hopefully they can improve drinks!Parking: 4 in front of the store“
“This was my first time here and I can't believe it! So gooood, the service so good, and really good bagels, so many flavors, super fresh, my new favorite. I ordered a green (St Patrick's day) bagel with sesame and strawberry cream cheese, so delicious! And nice people!!“
“Goodies here are delicious. They can be just cause or a special occasion. I ordered macrons for my wedding that were amazing, they were fresh n super flavorful all guest loved them. I will continue to order and definitely refer Sweet LIL Sweets to all friends and family. Also good to know they were gluten free for my grand daughter.“
“This place looks very artsy on the outside, once you step inside you feel like you’re at home with the decor. There are two self serve kiosks which are really well designed and easy to use. The food is absolutely delicious and reasonably priced! Definitely come here for authentic Korean street food.“
“Catered large Trays Mini Cassava balls Salt Fish Cakes with the sauces Tamarind and Mango . Delicious delicious delicious . All our guests could not stop talking about these appetizers. OMG JERK CHICKEN TO DIE FOR - Spicy and tender N JUICY leaves you wanting more. Again all our guests chattering about how delicious the jerk chicken was. MAC N CHEESE for the Vegetarians flavorful cheesy n delicious . My new go to for friends and family gatherings.“

“A cute and cozy cafe that makes the best croissants and matcha lates.This place is beautifully decorated, great customer service and their cookies and cupcakes are pieces of art.The building address is on Irving Ave but the entrance is by Jefferson Ave. ?I highly recomend it!P.S.: I would like to see a bigger sign that stand up and make the business a little more visible for public. ?“
“The croffles here are really good! I really like the blueberry, Oreo, and cherry flavors! They are pretty big and the price is very reasonable! The mochi donuts are ok, I'd rather get a croffle for two more dollars. The space is pretty tight so it can't accommodate large groups unless you go to the outside seating areas. Each time I have gone the staff have been eh, lots of workers scrambling around and not being helpful, but other than that the quality of the croffles out weighs my annoyance with the staff.“
“I loved the s’mores mochi donut. One time I went and I thought the mochi donuts were a bit oily. The last time I went it was delicious. So it might depend on the day.Update.I went back to get the s’mores mochi donut April 25 2024. The mochi donut was delicious as usual although I don’t think it needs that much marshmellow fluff on top but you can just take some off. I tried the Ube Tres leche. It was amazing!!!!! It rivals the tres leche café in Manhattan which is the best one ever. It’s seriously amazing. Musttttt try!“
“This place has amazing food and brings so much nostalgia for authentic Korean corn dogs, twist bread, and donuts. Service is great. I highly recommend the corn dogs and korean donuts, as well as sweet potato ball. Reserve ahead of time for pickup if you are ordering for a group.Vegetarian options: Sweet potato balls, twist bread, corn dogs“
“We had the best experience ever with this bakery - the cake was included in our venue pricing through this bakery, and I can definitely see why! Working with Alison to schedule and have our tasting, which was just down right fun...(because of COVID we had to take our samples home... and she loaded us up with some extras to share with friends) to showing her our vision for the cake on the day of, and then actually SEEING and EATING it at our wedding was perfect all the way through. They really incorporated everything we asked for, and it was simply delicious!!! We even asked for an extra birthday cupcake for our nephew to have on the day of the wedding, and they made it sooo cute! (wish I could figure out how to add a picture here... It was SO pretty!!!)“
“Wanted a nice cup of velvety not too sweet strong coffee! Found this gem and the Lady up front so sweet! Recommended a macchiato. Got the vanilla flavor and she made it perfect! So happy found another coffee spot that is worth the beans for your bucks! And service too!“
“So delicious Rich in flavors, and tastes, very very very creamy , soft and sweet !Love it!! I highly recommend the cream, vanilla cake & chocolate mousse cake. The service is amazing. Everyone is so nice and everything looks so pretty. Must try the pastries too you wont regret it.“
“Gelato is tasty and superb . ButThe ladies behind the counter had a noticeably annoying attitude . Maybe ill give them the benefit if the doubt that it was near closing time and there was still a handful of customersJust wanted to point that out because I know businesses always strive for improvement“
“Ever since my sister and I found out about this place, this has been our favorite place to get some tasty cookies, brownies, and cupcakes! We can’t get enough and it’s been our go-to place when we have a sweet tooth. The ladies that work there set the atmosphere extremely friendly and homey, they are very sweet and I would recommend you try out this place. You can definitely tell when something has been made with care and love!“
“My wife found a photo of a cake and I thought no way… Sabine replied immediately she could do it, and it was better than the photo! And the best part was that it tasted as great as it looked, and made our son’s 1st bday very special. Can’t wait to work with A Love For Cakes again!“
“A lovely, sunny and delicious respite from the cares of the world... How wonderful to find a place that serves top notch vegan fare--both sweet and some savory offerings too. Loved the rainbow cookies, Jamaican Patty and the black cake. The layer cakes are spectacular as well. Coffee, tea, chai, cappuccino--just some of the hot drink offerings to go with your treats. The owners are most congenial and welcoming, serving you with utmost care and attention. The bakery is light and airy with several tables to dine at. Located across the street from the Glen Oaks library on Union Turnpike, there is ample street parking as well as the large parking lot located behind the bakery. There is convenient access to public transportation too: the Q36 and Q46 stop steps away. My family and I truly enjoyed our time at Rose Valley bakery and cannot wait to do so again!“
“Naira Bread is a West African Store with Nigeria food….You can get one of the best popular Nigeria bread ( Agege Bread) here in loaf or Sliced with anything to go with it, e.g Nigeria local beans with the native stew to blend with it. You can’t regret it. An amazing “
“Some of the best cookies I ever tasted. Me and some work colleagues accidentally walked a mile to the factory instead of the actual cookie store on accident. instead of turning us around the owner came out, gave us a tour of the factory and gave us cookies and a story about how they got started. It was an amazing gesture, I recommend these cookies and they have the best business opportunity if you’re interested in opening a store yourself great people great service great cookies.“
“First time here with my family! Lovely place with all the sweets! Owner very friendly! We got two cupcakes, a chocolate brownie and a coconut ube cookie! Cookie not too sweet, cupcakes are delicious and the chocolate brownie definitely my favorite ^u^ Will definitely go back and try the rest of the sweets that they have!“
“What a great amazing I mean AMAZING cookies the smell took over my house … I ordered 8 cookies total HAVNT been able to dig in a few as this is super filling and one bite Is not enough so I’m storing and saving it one a day , the pistachio with passion fruit remind me of my home Brasil this is my favorite cookie I will be ordering “
“I have to share my experience with the special bread we call it shoureki , We usually use it for special occasions. It was out of this world, the flavours of bread it stays not only in your mouth it follows you in your mind like you're gonna have more ,even if you have to watch out ,it is worth it, we thank you.“
“Really cool spot by Baes place.. Came in for a latte and left with a chocolate croissant, pecan muffin and some end of the day tater tots.Service was great cool atmosphere plenty of seating in and out. Very clean place. Latte was frothy. Had the pecan muffin hiking the train forest of the NYBG.Will be back for a breakfast sandwhich and morning Latte next time I pick bae up for a hike.“
“Service is great and SUPER friendly. but lets talk bout the sweets !!! They are INSANE!!! the carrot cake is unreal!! my latest sweets obsession is the macaroons !!! and they are the perfect Valentine's day gift !! perfectly wrapped for Vday too !! got the lg box for my daughter and 5 small boxes for nieces and MIL.. LOVE THEM !! THANKS DOLCE!!!“
“Ambiance? Not much. Food? Excellent. I've bought their black forest cake many times. The bf cake is perfect - cake is moist, chocolatey and not that heavy. Ratio of cream to cake, should by appearance be too much cream but the cream is light and fluffy and turns out to be well balanced. The guys that run the place are good too - no nonsense and good at what they do.“
“Delicious neighborhood bakery. Wish they were open daily! Placed an order on the phone with Joe a week before an event, he said I didn't need to leave a deposit. Went back the day of, the cake and pastries were ready! Amazing service! Thank you“
“Today I purchased some cupcakes and they were phenomenal!! Highly recommend coming here for desserts. I have been wanting to try their stuff for a minute now and today I had a sweet tooth, and it was definitely exceptional. Definitely will be spreading the word and will be coming back.“
“Best Colombian bakery! Plenty of good, and a few great ones in Queens, but this is the best. Everything was fresh, flavorful and perfectly baked. The pan de bono was the perfect density and not dry at all like many places. Service was quick and kind, and the bakery was extremely clean.“
“(Translated by Google) Excellent and cozy I loved the homemade flavor that I found in this place, everything was very fresh and I felt very well attended (Original)Excelente y acogedor me encanto el sabor casero que encontré en este lugar todo muy fresco y muy bien atendida me sentí“
“Wow, this place was incredible. They serve incredible French press coffee and have a large selection of expertly prepared Filipino desserts. We got a mango souffle, mango creme brulee, and the ube tiramisu. Each was so delicious and the textures were so smooth. They also serve hot food but we didn't order any.I highly recommend this place for cheap delicious treats.“
“My first time trying this place since it changed its name. We ordered tamales, tacos and a torta. Tamales taste authentic, much larger than what I’m used too, but that’s a plus. Torta had a lot of meat, very good. Tacos were also very good, and loaded with meat. I enjoyed the salsa verde and the spicy red salsa as well. I’ve been hoping for a good authentic Mexican spot in Whitestone so I don’t have to drive to College Point or Corona, so glad I gave this place another chance.“
“If you’re a vegetarian or vegan I highly recommend the brunch bowl with vegan chicken tenders! It comes with sliced tomato’s and cucumbers and the BEST garlic rice I’ve ever tried in NYC. It also comes with hot sauce to dip your tenders in and it’s fantastic. I asked them to add a scrambled egg on it and it was the cherry on top. They happily obliged :’)Their iced oat milk latte was decent but not the best I had. I will be back for that brunch menu again though :)Overall great service and great food.“
“To begin with... it fills me with joy to have a Uruguayan Bakery near where I live, nothing better than having things that make you remember your beloved homeland. We come very often to eat here and buy takeaway. The cakes that I order are delicious, everyone is super satisfied and happy with the quality. The cream on the outside is always super sweet, but these cakes don't make you sick and make you want to continue eating more! Congratulations to the pastry chef who is a genius! Everything else we have bought is always fresh. The crumb sandwiches that you always worry are not going to be fresh, well here they are always delicious and fresh. Spectacular attention as always! Many thanks for everything!“
“Wonderful bagels, we enjoyed with the family some incredible bagels with salmon, onion, the delicious sauce and avocado, phew definitely exceeded our expectations, we discovered it recently and we loved it, very good service.Vegetarian options: Salads and bagels“
“This cake was beyond beautiful! It exceeded my expectations ?? The service for ordering was so easy and simple. Oh and by the way it was deliciously made as well. My daughter had specifically requested this cake for her 16th bday and she was extremely happy when she saw it. Thank you Blue Royale Cakes for making my daughter’s cake one of the best yet!“
“This is a cute little shop with both delicious looking and tasting pastries. I would highly recommend checking them out if you are looking for a place with a great atmosphere and food. I didn’t get a coffee based drink but they definitely made the shop smell good!“
“Great bakery with amazing sandwiches and pastries. Now they opened a meat restaurant next door!! I took my daughter to eat at Noir last night. Was really good! The plum salad with the citrus beet dressing was amazing. Like so fresh and we couldn’t get enough of that dressing!!! And I loved the shaved fennel salad too…my daughter doesn’t like fennel so, more for me!!! We shared the schnitzel because I heard it was the best and it was so yummy! perfectly crunchy and tasty and moist. The servers were friendly and attentive. The dining room filled up while we were there, on a random Tuesday!! And everyone seemed to be enjoying. Can’t wait to go back.“
“Bring back the original yogurt with granola and berries please! The new container is smaller and has more plastic so it’s harder to mix everything. There’s also less fruit and the granola is different too! The lemon and peach infused choices don’t hold a candle to the original formula. Keep them for customers who like them AND bring back what was always selling out ?“
“Had an amazing time there as the owner is so personable and aims to have a “small cafe in Connecticut kind of feel” which I definitely got. She really works to personalize your orders and is willing to try new recipes. I got the chocolate chip and strawberry cheesecake, apple cinnamon muffins, chocolate cupcakes, chocolate mousse, chocolate chip cookies , double chocolate cookies, and bloodies which all tasted incredible! I highly recommend anyone with a special diet whether it be gluten (which she has a separate area of the kitchen for), vegan, kosher, etc. this is your place!“
“One of the best places for cakes and muffins. We were big fan of this place since a long time and glad to come to this new store. The cakes are full of buttercream and just the right amount of sweetness.The ingredients are Halal, so quite a relief for the Muslims to eat the Mousse. Also, appreciate the blend of flavors available.I didn't like the slice of brownie as I found it very dry inside.“
“Best pastries, friendly owners & staff, have been getting my cookies, pastry, from them for years. Oh,! And they sell their delicious ricotta cheese cake by the slice.Parking: ConvenientWheelchair accessibility: Accessible from the street no stairs“
“We are new to the area and wanted to try it. We came in January but they were closed for the month! Today they were open and I ordered 2 chocolate croissants before I found out they only take Venmo or cash. They were kind enough to take my $7 and and a IOU. The chocolate croissant was good although the only other time I had one was in Paris, the one in Paris was better. But I will be back to pay what I owe and try what the reviewers recommend!“
“I've passed this place many times but ordered here using Uber eats for a last minute meal for my vegan mom ordered the "ginger chicken". She said it was delicious. I appreciated seeing the red cabbage as it offered a different twist than the traditional just wish they gave more next time I will order a separate side. All in all a lovely experience I will order again, maybe even stop in next time.“
