Gourmet Bake Shop 775 Hillside Avenue, New Hyde Park, NY 11040

"As far as my husband and I are concerned one of the best, if not the best bakery. Been stopping by for years and never had a complaint. We had apple pie, chocolate babkah, various Danish, cookies. I love the chocolate cigars. Staff is always pleasant and helpful, no matter how busy they are. If it is a holiday, go early or reserve ahead of time."

"Amazing bakery, cake came out beautiful and tasted great! The staff was so kind and helpful, will be ordering again!"

"I wouldn't recommend this bakery. We came one morning, and a nice associate asked if we needed help. We said we would look around and she said to let us know when we were ready. After a couple of minutes, we were ready. A different associate asked what we wanted, and I began to tell her. In the middle of me saying what I wanted, she turned to the next person in line and asked what they wanted, and then began boxing up their items. I found this very rude and we walked out. It really left a sour taste in our mouths. We had been there already long before anybody else was even in the store. I can appreciate that working in retail is difficult, but common decency and communication goes a very long way in running a successful business. We went to another local bakery and won't be returning here."

"Ordered an amazing Oreo cake from gourmet bake shop. Joe did amazing and everyone raved about the cake all night. They will be my go to bakery for cake!"

"Great local bakery with fair prices. Friendly service. Not much selections if you come in the afternoon. I thought I bought a peach pie but the inside was all cake. Too much dough and not enough fruit. Near the holidays there is a 10% coupon in the Marketplace Publication newspaper. Can pick up a newspaper at the Stop and Shop next block at the exit."
