Napoleon light custard filling with crispy layers."

"Wow for the hot chocolate. Yummy flavor and whipped cream. I had lost hope in finding a decent hot chocolate in the city although there are some... I can't comment on the pastries. They look amazing. I am gluten free and wasn't sure if they had any items without gluten containing ingredients. The person who helped me was super nice and brought the hot chocolate out to me. You'll have to be able to taste for yourself the other items, but lemme tell you the store smells amazing!"

"I love New York Bakery Cafe's Strawberry Cheesecake! Read why... My love affair with New York Bakery Cafe began 10 years ago when my friend from Astoria introduced me to it on my way out of town. (He was taking my car while I was away and driving me to the airport.) Picked up their Strawberry Cheesecake as a birthday present for old friends from Finland that I was meeting up with, in celebration of one of their birthdays - unaware at the time due to fog I'd have to switch airports from LGA to JFK and be stuck there until late at night. It went into the fridge at my mom's in Florida until the morning and then 3 hours by car to Port St. Lucie. We laughed hysterically when opening the box, seeing the flattening Strawberry Cheesecake (pic) but it was still amazing! We devoured it! Cut to now... when visiting my Astoria friend and his family who have since moved to L.A. Of course, I had to bring them one of New York Bakery Cafe's Strawberry Cheesecake. While this trip wasn't as long, navigating the plane change caused the cake to turn on its side. Arriving at night, we planned on enjoy it together after dinner the next day. Before we opened it up, my friend's wife confessed she couldn't wait! (See 2nd pic.) Even on its side, it's equally delicious! (I can attest to that eating the slice in the 3rd pic.) You're my go-to place for Strawberry Cheesecake, New York Bakery Cafe! Thank you for making one so memorably delicious!"

"Would recommend to all in the area given the delicious hot drinks and pastries. This is the perfect neighborhood, classic staple, and a local hotspot!"

"This place has done some major improvements since I last stopped by! I am a sucker for Greek cookies especially the powdered ones. They are conveniently located right off the n/w train on 30th Avenue. The staff is so sweet and attentive. Other favorites include their cheesecake, cannolis and tiramisu BUT my favorite are their powdered Greek cookies. I only get them once a week since they're $20 a lb ... I only do 1/2 a lb otherwise I would have to be in the gym twice a day. The cookies are so moist and powdery; the best I've had truthfully. Although they are always packed, I am always in and out! They've Definitely done a whole 360 since the last time I've been here."
