Amazingly delicious! Tried the bagel with cream cheese and tomato as well as a bagel with jam and butter—both were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The bagels had a great texture, and the toppings really complemented them. Simple combinations done really well. Definitely coming back!

Had a friend that really wanted to visit here and overall I enjoyed what I ordered. I got a Dubai Chocolate Cheesecake. It was really rich, sweet, with lots of different textures. It was almost like eating a peanut butter cup but with Dubai chocolate flavors and cheesecake. I definitely wasn't able to eat it all in one sitting but definitely a good option for someone who loves sweets. My other party members really enjoyed what they purchased (think they got canolis). Happy that I got the chance

📍 Benji’s Buns, West Village NYC Okay… updating my original review because I went back for Mother’s Day and this time got the 6-pack 👀 I went around 10:30 on a Sunday morning and surprisingly there was no line, which was a huge win 🙌 After trying more flavors, I can confidently say the specialty buns are definitely where Benji’s shines ✨ Some of these were REALLY good. My fav cinnamon buns (in order): 🍓 Raspberry Cheesecake such a good balance of sweet cheesecake frosting and refreshing

We arrived early on a Saturday morning to get bagels before our flight left. This cute little shop instantly captured our attention just based on the delicious smell of freshly made bagels. We asked for some recommendations from the server and she was very helpful. They have quite a favorite of bagels, but we were also impressed by the variety of cream cheese options. Everything we ordered was delicious. We loved it all.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock most New Yorkers have at least heard of, if not experienced Magnolia Bakery. I tried them today after not visiting for a few years simply because I know they are always there down the block from my office. I agree with a few of the reviews when it comes to their money maker the Banana Pudding. It’s changed over the years and not the chunky, hearty dessert year I remember as it seems like they are cutting corners on the ingredients. In this economy I can’t

Been a few times and everything I've tried is great. Not too sweet, and super unique! The matcha Souffle, mochi donut, salt bread bagel and jam jars are my top picks on the menu. The matcha Souffle was fun and instagramable, but it wasn't worth coming back for. I would return for more mochi donuts and salt bread bagels. Though they display the bagel is only available until 11am, sometimes they do offer it afterwards, so be sure to ask at the register. The butter is perfect and reminds me of the

Walking into Ferrara Bakery & Cafe felt like stepping into a classic piece of old New York Italian culture that somehow still survives in the middle of modern Manhattan. The moment you walk through the doors, you’re hit with the smell of espresso, pastries, sugar, fresh cannoli, and that unmistakable old-school bakery atmosphere that immediately makes the place feel warm, alive, and authentic. What I loved most is that Ferrara doesn’t feel manufactured for tourists — it feels like a place with

I took my girlfriend to try what are, in my opinion, the best cookies in all of New York, and it was an absolute success. We went there mainly because of the social media hype and, surprisingly, it was 100% worth it. The cookies are always freshly baked, warm, and perfectly thick on the inside. We tried the original cookie and the triple chocolate with dark chocolate, both of them incredible and exactly as good as everyone says. We also had a specialty coffee to go with them, which was a great

A friend told me I had to try this place while visiting NY, and it definitely lived up to the name of the spot (I even tried a few other bagels nearby to compare). Plenty of bagel option, including gluten-free, plus a wide variety of cream cheese flavors, sandwiches, and loaded bagels. I ordered The Jack Special on a jalapeño cheddar bagel, and it was flavorful and filling. Service was quick, even with a long line… just be ready with your order when you get to the counter. Limited seating inside

I was visiting from Chicago and stopped by Martha's Bakery in Forest Hills after hearing good things about their desserts. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of vegan options available. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. It's not always easy to find a bakery with such a strong selection of vegan treats, so that was a big plus. The bakery itself has a warm, inviting atmosphere and is a great place to sit and enjoy coffee and dessert. The only downside wa

~ Adorable Donut Shop ~ Didn't know about this place but got to stop by to check out because it's so adorable! Donuts are obviously more elevated than common stores and food carts. Wide selection. Service is excellent. Great location.

Sad to see fall be gone, wish fall weather could just stay forever. Venieros is a really great place for some Italian desserts. It is authentic and the pastries taste delicious! The pastries have a rich and authentic taste to it. It’s also not too expensive. They go by the pound, and you can try a variety of different pastries. The fruit tart, eclair, and cannoli came out to be $2 each, while the cheese cake was $6. The cheese cake and pastries tasted really good. Overall, the pastries were real

Visited Magnolia Bakery in the West Village while in Manhattan, and this spot absolutely lived up to the hype. Magnolia Bakery is famous for its Banana Pudding, so that was the main thing we came to try, and it was definitely worth it. We ordered the classic Banana Pudding along with the Carrot Cake Pudding, and both were incredible. The Banana Pudding was super creamy, light, and full of fresh banana flavor. It had the perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and you can immediately understan

I usually get their small fruit tarts which is one of my favorites, so I had my boyfriend preorder a 10in for my mother for Mother’s Day… we were so disappointed. The cake had a thicker than normal layer at the bottom, which tasted raw. Not enough custard to balance out the fruits or the base. I felt as if I was eating a raw cookie with a bunch of fruits on top. More effort could have been put into it.

Finally tried the rainbow bagel with birthday cake cream cheese (solid 8.5/10) - I understand the hype now haha - very addicting indeed. Also tried the New York Knicks special bagel and strawberry cream cheese (meh). It’s definitely ‘one and done justified’!

I got it today. I was very excited because it was going to be a "pasalubong" for my trip to the Philippines, and it really disappointed me. I held onto it all the way home to see the cookies and take a picture, but when I opened it, there were only 11 pieces when I had ordered 12 pieces, which is what is supposed to be in a Party box. The lady recommended me not to get the cookie with Ice cream on top as it will melt through out the trip. I will never go back to that store again. Very disappoint

Ess-a-Bagel is a true NYC classic! Very tasty bagels with generous portions that actually leave you full. The ingredients tasted fresh, the bagels had great texture, and everything was packed properly without being stingy. You can immediately understand why this place is so famous — it delivers that authentic New York bagel experience. Busy atmosphere, fast-moving energy, and food that lives up to the hype. Definitely worth the stop if you are in New York and want a proper bagel done right.

Martha's Country Bakery is an absolute treasure. From the moment you walk in, the display cases full of beautiful cakes, pies, pastries, and cookies make it impossible to choose just one thing. The cozy, rustic-chic atmosphere feels warm and inviting perfect for a relaxed morning coffee or a sweet treat after dinner. Their fruit tarts are legendary fresh, buttery, and piled high with seasonal berries. The cheesecake is creamy and rich without being too heavy, and the red velvet cake? To die for

Love the vibes and that they have Methodical coffee, but noticed that many of the tables are unbused and dirty. My iced matcha latte was pretty good but it took them a while to make our drinks and I saw the barista argue with a customer that they didn’t order their drink iced. Baristas could have had a better attitude.

I genuinely enjoyed my experience here. They were almost closing, but they didn’t rushed us or stopped serving. They were nice, happy and friendly. Bagels were pretty good. Good quality and generous in size and quantity. The Lox Bagel was my favorite and the price fair for the city.

Levain Bakery absolutely lives up to the hype. After hearing so much about their cookies, I went in with high expectations and somehow they still exceeded them. The cookies are simply incredible: perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and gooey in the center, rich without being overly sweet, and packed with flavor in every bite. They're substantial, indulgent, and somehow manage to feel both comforting and unforgettable at the same time. I've had cookies from countless bakeries, but Levain's are

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Cinco de Mayo celebrates Mexican culture, resilience, and the rich traditions that bring people together. At NY Bakery and Dessert, you can find festive favorites like tres leches, strawberry tres leches, and flan. My favorite is the strawberry tres leches — the combination of three kinds of milk with fresh strawberry flavor is incredibly soft, rich, and delicious. You’ll also discover a wide variety of desserts from around the world — French pastries, gluten-free opera cake

First time at this IHOP and I was impressed. I was greeted and seated right away. My server, Carolina, was incredible from the moment she took our order. Her energy and attentiveness really stood out — she confirmed everything and our food came out in minutes. Carolina’s service is the reason I’ll keep coming back. A1. If you are in the area and decide to come here. Ask to be seated in her section. You won’t be disappointed. Happy Customer ❤️

The best ice cream I have ever eaten in my life. A huge selection of flavors, and each one is better than the last. It’s a bit pricey, but considering that they don't use artificial flavors or colors, it is definitely worth paying a little extra. I highly recommend it.

Martha’s Country Bakery Martha’s Country Bakery in Bayside is a reliable neighborhood spot, especially convenient thanks to its location near the LIRR station. It’s easy to drop in whether you’re meeting friends or just picking something up on the go. The éclairs stand out as one of the better items on the menu—well-balanced with a satisfying cream filling and a proper pastry texture. Their pound cakes are also worth noting: generously portioned, moist, and consistently flavorful across differ

Beautiful and very Instagram-worthy desserts. Everything looked amazing and tasted good, especially the cream puffs. However, the photos online make the place seem bigger than it is. The shop is quite small and crowded, prices are on the high end, and the staff wasn’t particularly friendly during our visit. Worth trying once for the unique pastries and presentation.

Delicious bagels & great service! • Went around 2 PM—no crowds or lines, which was perfect. • Ordered the egg, bacon, and cheese on an everything bagel. I mentioned I was curious about cream cheese, and the staff kindly added it—such a nice gesture! • Bagel was delicious, hot, and perfectly toasted. • The americano was solid too. • Clean dining area inside and very comfortable. • Conveniently located near my accommodation. • Will definitely be back to try other variants!

Absolutely Delicious! I’m the type of person that don’t like Cakes (usually it’s way too sweet and I hate icing/frosting). The plan was to order a gorgeous Instagram Worthy cake and post pictures and give it to some one. But I decided let’s just enjoy a bite. It’s so moist and rich and creamy. The Buttercream is so melting on the tongue. Chocolate mousse and fudge is paired perfectly. I plan to order more custom cakes here in the coming weeks. Thank You for Delivering not only a Picturesque Beau

I truly felt like I was getting red carpet service during my visit. Shanice K greeted me with a big smile and even started my morning with a light joke, which immediately made me feel comfortable. I was having a hard time deciding what to order, and she jumped right in with helpful suggestions — even sharing one of her favorite meals and what’s most popular. Throughout my visit, Shanice checked in on me consistently and made sure I had everything I needed. Her great personality and excellent cu

Famous for their Banana Pudding! I’ve always loved their banana pudding. Came to this location to grab their standard pudding and also the pistachio banana pudding, which was a great change in taste and texture. Tried their mini cupcakes, which were decent. Did not have a good experience with the lady at the banana pudding bar, as she was a bit rude. Otherwise, no issues. A bit of a line, but expected. Price is a little bit high but reasonable for the brand.

This was my first time to a donut shop that wasn’t a chain and it was so cool! They had a huge variety of flavors, I got the chocolate cake and really enjoyed it! Other flavors we got were s’mores and chocolate glazed with sprinkles (go Knicks!). One of my family members wanted cinnamon and they didn’t have that on display but the servers were kind enough to dip a donut in cinnamon sugar and give him what he asked for! They also had bar stool seats which were awesome. It also has to be the most

Friendly waitstaff! Food was good! Kids get a crayon and a fun activity sheet. Only downside is, only the woman's bathroom has a changing station for diapers... so if you're a dad that wants to take your kids out, better hope you dont need a diaper change!

Spot Dessert Bar has been on my list for a while and is a relatively small space down a staircase, don’t miss it! We went in a Saturday afternoon so it was pretty crowded, but were able to be seated immediately! The menu is focused on a few key dessert items, and there are many different combinations you can make. We got the matcha lava cake to share between 2 people, which I’d recommend since it can get heavy. The lava cake itself was so decadent, the dark chocolate was super rich and it was so

IHop at 8:30 am was an excellent budget-friendly option for breakfast. My server, Karen, provided the kind of service I appreciate. She was friendly without being overly so, attentive, and helpful. These qualities are becoming increasingly rare in the service industry. Karen’s disposition was the same for all the tables near me. If Karen isn’t at her top salary range she needs her raise. I’ll definitely return.

IHOP could definitely use a few more healthy options, but I went with the veggie egg white omelet and it actually hit the spot. The only other lighter thing I saw was the avocado toast, so choices are a little limited if you’re trying to keep it clean. The music was a little loud for 7am, not exactly the calm breakfast vibe I was going for but not a dealbreaker. The hostess was really sweet and attentive, and service was quick. Food came out fast and everything tasted good. Overall, a solid br

Finally tried the famous Levain cookies… and yes, they’re worth the hype. 🍪 What we ordered: 🍪 Two Chip Chocolate Chip Cookie — $5.75 🍪 Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookie — $5.75 🥛 2 Small Whole Milk — $4.50 Warm cookies + cold milk = perfect combo. #LevainBakery #NYCDesserts #NYCFoodie #CookieLovers #GoodieFoodie

• Their semi-sweet choco chip cookie was really good! I also loved the vanilla bean cookie. • The birthday sprinkle cookie was quite underbaked and too sweet. • Great to try. Hoping for the carrot cake/cookie and dubai flavor on my next visit.

I came here on international pancake day, and I guess so did everyone else! The IHOP was packed, but we were still somehow seated very quickly and the service was great. Hats off to the crew for handling this busy day so well, and feeding us! Also, the waitress found that the table next to us left their phone, and she made sure that phone was safe when the person came back. Commendable service and delicious food all around. Thanks IHOP!

I just don’t get what’s going on at this location,but when these cookies first came out in November the thin cookies bay plaza they were amazing when they first came out when they came back they haven’t been the same this is the 5 time I order at this location for the thin chocolate chip cookies; why is every week there’s always. A problem the cookies aren’t the same as I get in levvitown, as well as this batch I got all raw and I don’t know if bay plaza is just doing it different this time arou

Yes it tastes as good as it looks. Beautiful pastries! Lots of options for the sweet and savory craving. These bakeries are located all over NY and I definitely stopped at a few different ones. All great! Definitely recommend stopping in for at least one meal.

Today was my first visit to Leo’s Bagels, and everyone was very helpful. I was looking at the menu on the wall and an employee offered me a paper version of the menu so I didn’t have to squint up at the wall to decide what to order. At 12:30pm on Easter Sunday, there was a very short line, and I got in and out pretty quickly (~5-7 min). The employee at the register was very helpful and polite also. I ordered the egg sandwich on an everything bagel toasted with mozzarella cheese, and the melted c

We stopped by The Donut Pub to try the Brooklyn Kreme and the Apple Fritter. Overall, the experience was okay, but a bit different from what we expected. The donuts were good, but I have honestly had better ones before, so I was a little disappointed considering the hype. They were enjoyable, just not particularly memorable for us. The atmosphere inside was fine, and the service was okay as well - nothing exceptional, but not bad either. Everything felt fairly average overall. Afterward, we t

I totally get the hype now. Quick service, generous portions, and delicious food. Took some pics of my food, but hubby ate his chicken sandwich before I could take a shot. He absolutely loved it too. We'll be back to try out more!

Excellent find! I was cannoli shopping while in NY, trying all i could find and while in Brooklyn found this place! I didn't take photos inside since there were signs everywhere asking not to photograph or video, so I only have what I purchased and it was very very good! I ended up with a traditional cannolo, lobster tail and a slice of chocolate cake for the hubs. The cannolo was excellent, im always a fan of the candied orange rind, the filling was sweet, but not overly so and creamy, not too

Good lord. This was the best breakfast sandwich/bagel ive ever had. Stuffed bagel with egg cheese and sausage. Amazing. I got the last vegan stuffed bagel and then they slapped a sold out sign. It was about 1230pm on a thursday when I ordered so try to get there before then! Inside is quite small with only 4 seats. Luckily the weather was nice so I sat at a table outside. The bagel texture is amazing. I wish Portland had something like this. I would choose to go back here every time I visit NYC

This review is specifically in regard to their oxtail omelette . I was so excited to try it as I’ve heard good things from people who’ve tried it at the other ihop location that does it. But it was disgusting. Majority of the pieces had huge chunks of fat in it throughout the omelette (as pictured) and the entire thing was inedible as a result of that. It’s so expensive for it to taste so horrible . I do not recommend!

Just moved to NYC and this is my first time in an IHOP and many years and Luigi was our server did an amazing job very attentive and food was good and came out very fast.

Had a lovely experience here. Tried their coffee and banana chocolate chip pound cake—both were absolutely delicious. The pound cake was super moist, rich, and perfectly balanced in sweetness, with just the right hint of banana and chocolate in every bite. The coffee paired really well and made it even better. Simple items, but done exceptionally well. Definitely a place I’d come back to!

Im not even the biggest fan of cookies, but Levain is just so good. Their cookies are huge and on the chunkier side. It’s slightly soft in the center but crunchy on the outside, and has sufficient mix in ingredients (chocolate chips, walnuts, etc.) Fav is def the chocolate chips and walnut. I did find the two chip chocolate chip and double chocolate chip cookie to be too chocolatey and sweet for my preference. It’s a little hit or miss, but when it gets too busy they just grab it from the tra
