Famous Restaurant & Baking Company 2210 Neuse Boulevard, New Bern, NC 28560

"I ordered a marble sheet cake with whipped icing for a party. It was the best cake I’ve ever had, seriously! I provided the print for the middle of the cake, and they did the colors on the outside. They knocked the decoration out of the park. The cake was devoured in 20 minutes. Everyone loved it!"

"Famous Baking Co. is my go to wedding cake baker in the area! They are just as talented with their baking as they are the artistry that goes into decorating them. They respond to all communication so quickly, and are great to work with!"

"Famous Subs is a good place to grab a lunch or a light dinner. Prices are reasonable. Has a varied menu aside from wine choices and most food items are delicious. I do really enjoy their veggie sub. In fact, as I am typing this, I want one! I had a veggie pizza recently as carry out and found it to be delicious. Warning: Their fries are the worse. But simple chips that comes with subs and other sandwiches are always good. They are just Lays - but always fresh. Service is generally friendly and efficient. Found this weekend’s visit to be lacking as my sub arrived after others were almost finished with their meals. And yes, it was that rare time that I was soooo hungry. But they were busy and it won’t keep me from returning. The bakery is disappointing. All looks pretty. But aside from a cookie, I have not found bread or desserts to be enjoyable. But I should add that I have not tried it in maybe 4 years due to earlier experiences. So maybe it has improved."

"No a bad place for New Bern. The hummus was underwhelming. A bit bland for my liking but not bad. I believe I should have paid closer attention to the description of the open faced gyro. I was imagining it was going to be a the kind of meat shavings off a rotating spit but it was still good and there was a lot of it. Oh, an there was like only 2 olives on mine and only 1 one my girlfriends. Kinda of a shame since they are so delicious. Ah, I almost forgot, my pita was roasted until it was so dry that it became brittle. And yes, I should have asked for a fresh one and showed. Overall, I would go back again to try their traditional gyro."

"Finally made it here and it didn't disappoint. Hubby ordered the baked ziti with extra meatballs and he inhaled it. I had the spanakopita and it has the right balance of spinach and feta. The puff pastry could be a little less toasty but still quite tasty. Our waitress was very attentive considering it was lunchtime. We moseyed over to their bakery and were greeted with that heavenly smell of freshly baked goodies. Too many to choose from but finally settled on a cheesecake, mixed very almond cake and raspberry thumbprint. Will definitely come back to try the rest."
