Nice to see some places opening up during this time! Checked this place out twice so far. Though I am trying to cut down on sweets, some days you just need a fix! I tried a mini Tiramisu, which was very good. The second time I went in was after I saw they had frozen hot chocolate on their Instagram! Will definitely come back to try t ... read more

Had the best cake for my birthday from Astoria bakery !
We started with a nice fresh coffee in the morning, and enjoyed the cake for 3 days !
Definitely recommend this place for coffee and pastries.

It became my favorite morning spot for coffee, specially with the outdoor seating!

Stopped by the second day of their reopen. The staff are great! The service is fast! And the pastries are quality!

It reminds me of a little European café. I hope that they have outdoor seating as the weather gets warmer and COVID passes.

This is my new go to café. Plus they are right by the Q69 buss stop!

I live a few blocks away and seeing this place shut down is devastating to my need for sweets. I really, really hope they reopen (I know it says above it will), but we all know what happens when stores say this sometimes. Their black and white cookies are the best I have ever had. The staff is so sweet as well. The store itself is si ... read more

I have been ordering my son's birthday cakes for the past two years  at Astoria Bakery, the cake is not only delicious but they made beautiful customized cakes for an affordable price.
Plus their linzer tart cookies are delicious! I love this place and will for sure continue ordering from them.

They were able to provide a custom photo birthday cake on short notice. End result was lovely. Customer service was very friendly.
I wasn't a huge fan of the sponge cake (either vanilla or chocolate) used in the cake, next time I would choose a non-sponge cake option.

We got our sons first birthday cake here. They told us we could have exactly what we wanted no matter what it was. We got yellow cake with chocolate butter cream filling and whipped cream frosting. I made no mention of decoration but they went ahead and made the cake absolutely beautiful. They made a great memory for our party and we ... read more

On our way to another location, we got off at the bus stop which put us right in front of this bakery. Simple shop with cakes, muffins, brownies, cookies, donuts, etc. lined up behind glass.

Lots of enticing options to choose from, but settled on a simple Sugared Jelly Donut ($1.50). Soft donut with a sweet punch from the suga ... read more

A small white box of butter cookies adorably tied with string might be the most thoughtful gift I've ever recieved. It was given to my husband for me to try by one of his work buddies. He didn't even know me! Little did they know, my biggest pregnancy craving is butter cookies! I'm shocked they lasted the week left my husband had in ... read more

Olga and her team did a fantastic job on our wedding cake. She gave us a whole lot of flavors to try and worked with us on finding a compromise I wanted strawberries, my (now) husband wanted custard so they put it all together for us and delivered.

I got our wedding cake from here and it was beautiful. We came about a month before the big day and got to taste different flavors and finally decided on what we wanted.
The girl who was helping us was super helpful and nice.
We went through many pictures to decide what design we would like, after using some of their ideas an ... read more

What can I say about this bakery...well their customer service is amazing, their prices are great and the baked good are delicious.

Given the wide range of reviews, from five stars to one star, I felt some trepidation walking into this bakery in Astoria on a Sunday morning. They have a wide range of products, and most of their stuff looks good, but I can only speak for the sfogliatelle, which was exemplary: beautiful, flaky crust, mellow ricotta filling, and the ... read more

Love! Best place to get cookies and bread. The staff is warm and pleasant. Anytime I need to bring sweets or my son's school has a party I come here and it doesn't break the bank. Oh lastly the coffee is on point.

Ok, the best rolls and Italian bread especially because the bread is cooked fresh everyday. If you live close at 4:00 in the morning you can smell the bread being made. Also, the cookies are insane and the coffee is good. Lastly, they sell fresh dough for pizza.

This is a lovely neighborhood bakery where the pastries, assorted breads, cookies, and cakes are delectable and delightful!

Love this place.  The bread tastes so homemade and fresh and the pastries are the best... Sweet but not overly sweet... You can taste the from-scratch ingredients.  My favorites are the sprinkled donuts, cin sugar donuts and cheese danish.  The only downside is they only take cash and there's no tables or area to enjoy the goodies in ... read more

For Christmas, my mother brought over a little variety box of cakes and a cannolis. (They we're opened Christmas morning) They were all absolutely delicious! I was surprised when she said they were from here. I've always gone here for the occasional coffee and black and white cookie passing by which has always been good, but never kn ... read more

I really love this place, and bonus points for being right across the street.

They have fantastic hours for a bakery (i.e. when I get home from work at 7 they're still open!) and they have great classic Italian cookies and pastries.

Their bread is tasty but if you don't put it in a plastic bag right away it will get sta ... read more

I love this place. Get the bagels. Better then most bagel shops. Only place I eat a cinnamon raisin bagel. You best bet is to order them for Sat or Sun brunch. And don't for get the donuts. YUM YUM YUM.

We heard wonderful things about their red velvet cakes and decided to have Sal and his crew do our wedding cake. It was AMAZING. I'm not even a huge fan of red velvet but this was so moist and decadent and the cream cheese frosting so perfect (not too heavy, not too light). It was a huge hit. At the end of the night we could only bri ... read more

This place is great for their daily freshly baked bread. The prices are also very decent. I love to get the Greek bread sliced. It's always nice and soft on the inside and just the right bread-like crunchiness on the outside. This place is also very consistent, my dad (the bread fanatic) always bought the bread from here ever since I ... read more

It's my favorite pastry shop. The best linzen tarts, napoleons (try mini napoleons), and cannoli I ever ate. Apple crumb cake is also delicious. Service is very nice.
I highly recommend this place.

I just moved to the neighborhood and my lovely wife brings home a box of pastries, cookies and cakes from here and I was blown away at how good each one was! I find most bakeries to have the same sort of assortment and it usually all looks better than it tastes but not Astoria Bakery. Each one was better than the next!

My favorite bagel in NYC! Chewy on the outside, yet soft and doughy on the outside with the perfect pinch of salt. The only thing is that they don't bake that many daily, so you gotta get your hands on 'em early!

Best italian bakery in Astoria, love the mini chocolate cannolis, I totally agree with the other reviewer that Martha's Bakery gets all the attention but their stuff isn't even good, Astoria Bakery is so much better, I always bring their pastries to my family on the holidays and my family always raves how the pastries are the best th ... read more

I searched high and low for an affordable, quality bakery for my wedding cake this past October. Let me tell you something: ASTORIA BAKERY is UNREAL. They made a gorgeous red-velvet cake (I posted pics) and UNBELIEVABLE cream cheese frosting. I brought in a picture of a cake design I liked and they replicated it to a tee.
