“Great customer service and tasty cakes & cookies“

“OMFG, OMFG!!! These brownies are literally TO DIE FORRRR… I don’t even attempt to make brownies at home anymore because nothing compares to Goodie Delights!! My husband is completely hooked as well!! Tabetha is sooo super sweet and flexible. She responds very quickly and gets you the product in no time! She offers local meeting or even delivery!! 13/10 Highly recommend!!!“

“Different Philly bakeries make my top list for different reasons. If you want sourdough this is THE place to get it (rosemary peppercorn is my fave). Morning buns are great too. The rest--croissants, danishes and most savory options are ok but nothing special. The staff are super friendly. The cafe can get very crowded at times, and I think there are better options for breakfast in the general area.“

“We love the croissant and bagels! Can’t wait to try more yummy things next week! And it’s AMAZING to have delivery.“

“I was visiting Philly for work from London doing some research at the nearby Historical Society of Pennsylvania and ended up coming here everyday for breakfast and snacks! Amazing ham and cheese croissant, Napoleon pastry, coffee and juice, and all the people working there are polite and kind.“

“Rhonda came through for my daughters 21st bday party! Called her on Thursday for a Saturday late day delivery… top notch, on time delivery but best yet… amazing mini cupcakes…baked on Saturday delivered fresh!!! The cupcakes were so flavorful…each one was mouth watering!!! Thank you Rhonda @seconddaughterbakingco 10 out of 10!!!!“

“One of the best vegan bakeries I've ever been to! The Earl Grey cake was delicious, as were the other desserts we got. And the savory pastries were so yummy. I also got the best chai I think I've ever had. It's low-key a PROBLEM that I only live ten minutes away from this place!“

“I can't say enough good things about this bakery. I've tried their pastries, cookies and cappuccino, and they are all INCREDIBLE. And very reasonable prices - just be sure to bring cash as they're cash only. My favorite bakery in all of Philly“

“I've been buying from Isgros since 1975. Anyone who writes a bad review of this beloved bakery is likely to think the Grand Canyon is merely a hole in the ground. Don't believe any of their drivel. Maybe.....maybe!....they caught a bad batch of goods....but its highly unlikely. Everything sells out! How can stuff be stale? Impossible!! Everything they produce is simply sensational. I've never heard of any complaints from anybody who I know to be a regular customer. Pricing? Is that even worth mentioning? Does anyone gripe about the price of a Mercedes? The goods cost what they cost because they're high quality and delicious.“

“i'll always love you mayflower bakery <3
ham cheese corn bun is always very yummy. today is mango smoothie -- very good, not too sweet. i will try papaya another day maybe, hopefully avocado soon.

the place is small, but personally cozy for me to sit in. very nice people :)“

“Levain Bakery never disappoints! The mini ice cream sandwich is absolutely delicious, the perfect combo of a chewy cookie and creamy ice cream. The Chocolate Chip Brioche is also incredible, so soft and buttery. Their drinks are always amazing too, and the workers here are so nice every single time. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious and fresh Brazilian dessert“

“Best brownie ever!“

“The service was great and the women behind the counter were amazing! I will definitely come back when I am in the area again.“

“They have the best customer service. I got a cookie tin and canolis. Both were of such high quality. Great Italian bakery!“

“Cash or Venmo only.

I got my favorite beef curry puff (puff pastry stuffed with beef curry) and my new favorite, a deep fried shrimp dumpling/egg roll thing. So so so good. Each item is about $2-3 and so good!
I just love this place.“

“Bonnie has absolutely the BEST bagels in Philly (and among the top I've ever had). You can smell and taste the sesame, and zaatar is my favorite. Croissants are also superb. Other things are perhaps not as divine, but many savory (hand pies, savory spicy scones) and sweet (cinnamon buns) offerings are quite good.“

“Listennnnn! those mini Sweet Potato pies were to die for!!! I'll be back soon! ❤️ 🔥“

“Welcome to the Asian 9rh st. The area is complete with nuance of fish heads and stray cats. The Filthy Orient would fit in well in this area. The pretzels are tasty ,but I have to disinfect my work boots when I leave this store.“

“This place is awesome. Staff was very friendly. Everything we had tasted great. No need to go anywhere else. There is a reason they win best of county every year.“

“Bacon egg and cheese croissant 🥐 is delicious !!“

“I was in the area and decided to pop by to try a thing or two. Not knowing anyone who had tried them before I stuck to the small, individual sized items…browned butter chocolate chip cookies, morning croissant and some pizza dough. It all comes frozen but I had other places to go so some started defrosting in the car. Here’s my review of each. Cookies - I don’t like ANY chocolate chip cookie that doesn’t have nuts in them. I usually wouldn’t even buy them, I decided to try these because of the browned butter. I had one in the car before I got home and they were AMAZING! I shocked myself at how much I enjoyed them. They were soft without being chewy, a feature I hate in cookies personally, and had nice crispy edges, even after defrosting! The taste, texture and everything about these defied all that I thought was possible with a gf cookie! 10 out of 10 Pizza dough - since it was defrosted by the time I got him I decided to make a couple mini pizzas. I used half the dough, I bag will easily make 4-5 personal sized pizzas. I thought I had rolled it too thin as it started to break apart so I made it a little thicker. It rises while cooking so when I do the rest, I’ll leave it thinner for sure. Because other gf pizzas seem to have such difficulty cooking in the city I was concerned when I saw these rising. But they cooked up beautifully! It was soooo nice having gf pizzas seem that had the taste and texture of traditional crust. I appreciate suppliers for having the option available, and some are better than others…but the Flakely dough is the standard now! I’ll never buy another gf pizza, whether it be a restaurant or a market. 10 out of 10 Morning croissant - I put this right in the freezer so I haven’t tasted it yet. But it looks phenomenal! They described it as a cross between a cinnamon roll and a croissant. You can’t go wrong with that combo as a general thing but given how the cookie and pizza dough has tasted, I have no doubt this will be terrific as well! Run, don’t walk, over to their shop and let’s make sure they’re around for the long haul. Just beware, they might spoil you against some of your existing faves!“

“Steve and his staff are so kind and have the best tomato pie for a price you can't beat. They are fantastic neighbors to have and always take the time to ask how you're doing; it's a temptation every day they're open to walk over and say hi and grab lunch. Can't recommend them enough!“

“I LOVE and 100% recommend The Famous 4th Street Cookie Company! Someone had their cookies mailed to me as a sympathy gift back in 2021. Since then, I myself have sent them to so many family and friends. Here are my top reasons for loving this company: 1. Their chocolate chip cookies are seriously so amazing! (and I am very particular about my chocolate chip cookies), 2. Their service is amazing! They respond to emails and phone messages really quickly and do what they can to help, 3. They are military friendly - whenever I need to ship to my nephew's military base in Alaska (which is very hard to get companies to deliver to by the way), they always help me out, get the shipping done quickly, and are super helpful. When my nephew gets the cookies in Alaska, they are always amazing. This is a great company that I will continue to use to send friends and family delicious gifts.“

“You will definitely get the by far the best tomato pie in Philly hands down p.s get there early because they most definitely will sale out!!!!“

“I've always had good baked goods here - it's becoming a traditional stop when we come to the city! Best things I've had here are the maple oatmeal scones and the brown butter pound cake - phenomenal! What baked goods are supposed to taste like!“

“beignets, almond croissants, plain croissants. cash only“

“SUGARED prepared the most delicious and beautiful dessert table for my daughter’s holy communion. We had a custom cake, brownies, cookies, cupcakes, and mini cheesecakes. I was asked all night where everything was from and received compliments on how delicious everything was. I have never thrown a party where every last piece of cake was eaten and this was the event it happened for! Sha was amazing to work with when designing my vision and knocked it out of the park!!!“

“We hosted ~20 people from out of town for a team dinner and it was wonderful to have Dan & DiFabios help us have a space to mingle, eat & have drinks with everybody traveling out of town for marathon weekend we really wanted a space for just that. From accommodating our party (including kiddos) to the great service - we were so happy with the food, service & Dan helping us reserve the space!“

“Excellent service, excellent Baker. A true and delightful Patisserie.“

“They make ordering easy and have given me a beautiful wedding cake and an amazing Cupcake-cake for a birthday party. I have ordered similar cakes from two other local bakeries and Weinrich’s tastes better and the experience of ordering and pickup was much less stressful here.“

“This bakery is incredible. Haven’t tried an item I didn’t like. The owner, Robert, takes pride in his craft and I say craft because he’s a true baker and expert in this space. A true gem in Swarthmore. Check it out!“

“It was really really good! Expensive yeaaaa tbh $20 for six donuts maybe that’s because of inflation but defiantly good! I seen other mochi places and they’re even more expensive so they’re relatively cheaper than most places. I got peach milk tea too and three Korean corn dogs. The milk tea was perfect. The Korean corn dogs were very delicious!“

“I called from Iowa today and the sweetest girl answered. I wanted to order a cake for an older gentleman who didn’t have a very good birthday. The girl was so polite and told me she would check with her boss about delivery. In a few minutes she called back and told me they would be able to deliver the cake TODAY!!!! He got it and was thrilled💕Thank you so much!!!! Top notch customer service 💕💕💕💕“

“Always something new and delicious to try here! The chocolate almond croissant is particularly incredible. Wonderful owners and lovely staff.“

“They always have great pastries compliant are the best“

“I love just love this place and their cakes. Very tasty beautiful and great served. Thank god they are 40 minutes away from me. Otherwise I would be there every day.“

“The best ice cream shop in our area hands down. Very nice portions, and the waffle cones are tasty.
The cookies are very solid as well (except perhaps the blended one).
Closed for the season during the winter, but we visit often when it is open.“

“When in South Philadelphia one must go to…“

“Ordered cakes here several times and coming back for more 🎂“

“They are a great bakery..“

“Everything from Frangellis is amazing. Highly recommended.“

“Yet another hidden gem in Philly. I came in for the first time today by chance and immediately felt so so so welcomed into the space. It is much smaller of a space than Madis Coffee Roasters (Twisted Grounds has only a few small tables to sit), but the staff is equally as kind, friendly, talkative, and enjoyable to be around. You can quickly tell that the team here has a great rapport with each other, and it makes the atmosphere comfortable and fun to be in. They have super cute merch and engaging conversations. I'm excited for this to be one of my regular haunts in Philly. The manager runs this place like a well-oiled machine.“

“The absolute BEST tomato pie in Philly and the suburbs! Specialty bread, oreganata, moved out of the area, but it’s always worth the trip!“

“Crumbl have some good cookies, I love the variety of options for their flavors weekly! This is my 3rd time having crumbl and Everytime there were a few I loved and a few I didn't but that's okay. Overall I recommend buying, even if it's a little pricey.“
