“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.

I had a newbie and my cake box was not tied correctly. If I carried it by the string, it would have smashed to the ground. The servers could be more friendly and not so grumpy.“

“After extensively going around the new York area trying new things.... This was a stand out and in my opinion represents what the essence of New York is a combination of cultures and experiences coming together making affordable food that blows one's mind when eating.... The chicken and beef patties are elite flaky thousand layers cover a favorful center chicken or beef. Layered with textures from flaky crunchy outside to the soft delicate inside of the pattie. Amazing 🤝🏾 also the one of the best croissants hands down. Also Don't skip on the home made juices. 🔥🔥🔥the best part it's halal!“

“Whenever I'm in Merrick, which is usually two or three times a month, I always stop at Bagelman of Merrick. They have the best bacon and egg sandwiches and their tuna and chicken salads are always a welcome sight back home. Their bagels are always fresh and flavorful no matter what variety I get. I've come to know the owner, Boris, and his staff, and they are always most helpful. Looking forward to my next trip to Merrick.“

“The food was amazing, I got the Texas Hold ‘em but with grilled chicken and they did an amazing job. They cook the chicken/bacon right in front of your eyes, plus the food tastes incredibly fresh. I recommend getting one of their panini’s, they know what they are doing and most likely what they have on the menu is a really good idea.The place has a huge drink selection on the wall, a few shelves full of chips, and the menu is incredibly easy to read and it actually includes the ingredients which you don’t see anymore nowadays.The staff was super nice and took your order quickly, somehow the (I believe manager) remembered my order (Texas hold ‘em with grilled chicken) in just three visits.Sadly soon I’ll have to leave New York and won’t be able to eat here anytime soon, but I will remember this place.“

“Hands down best Macarons I ever tasted😋“

“Cat is an absolute artist when it comes to anything dessert related. Recently she baked me my wedding cake and it was completely personalized and unique to all the requests that myself and my wife requested. She even personally delivered it to the wedding venue and coordinated with venue staff on the day of my wedding. I highly recommend stopping in for a variety of brownies/cookies/etc or for bigger event like a wedding cake!“

“An excellent bakery with exceptional value. The service is always friendly, there is always plenty of fresh baked goodies ready to go, and the cakes are delightful…special shoutout to Theresa for a consistently pleasant & smooth transaction!“

“I was craving a late sweet treat. (There goes my diet) I ran across Layers from Uber Eats and googled the store to read the reviews which were great but I saw some bad reviews about the cakes being stale and not fresh. My cravings got the best of me and I ordered despite some bad reviews. Man oh man was I happy I did. The brownie was delicious and moist. I hate hard dry brownies this place did not disappoint. I also ordered red velvet cupcakes. I haven’t tried it yet but I’m sure it will be great! Thank you Layers!!🔥🔥“

“*5/5 Stars - A Slice of Heaven in Great Neck!*

I'm still drooling just thinking about the incredible salad and pastries from this bakery! The moment I stepped inside, I knew I was in for a treat. The aroma of freshly baked goods wafted through the air, and the staff's warm smiles made me feel right at home.

The croissant? Flaky, buttery crust giving way to a sweet surprise center. The rugelach? Layers of flaky dough wrapped around a rich, creamy filling. And don't even get me started on the babka - moist, chocolatey, and utterly addictive.

What truly sets this bakery apart is the love and care that goes into every single item. You can taste the difference in every bite. Whether you're a longtime fan or just discovering this hidden gem, do yourself a favor and get here ASAP.

*Pro tip:* Try the bakery specials - they're always a delight! Can't wait to come back and indulge in more of their delicious treats!“
