Very small bakery I came after 3pm so there weren't many things left I did get a little cake with chocolate and different colors as well as an iced coffee which was much needed due to this heat. Iced coffee was big and refreshing and the cake pretty good. Unfortunately I didn't get to take a pic of it since I ate and drank on the go. Lady behind the counter was nice and prices were very decent for both items. read more

I ordered quite a few items - the Linzer cookies, a giant rainbow cookie cake slice, apple strudel, a butter chocolate shell type cookie with raspberry filling and some of the lacy cookies with chocolate layer between. I also got a very nice iced coffee all for $30. They fortunately take Apple Pay. The bakery is very small, standing room only but the staff was helpful and I have enjoyed the cookies. read more

I find it interesting that there is not a person h who speak Hungarian. On my last visit there were two Hispanic, very young women who had no clue about any of the stuff they were selling. I paid cash and they could not figure out the change they had to give me. I bought pogacsa. Ok, it was fresh, but it was tasteless at best. Andre's items are all overpriced. None of their pastry is worth what they charge for it. One pound little pogacsa, about 11-12 pieces cost $20.00 All pastries are poor imitations of good Hungarian pastry. read more

Everything I ever tasted from here is excellent. I have friends who love their rugellach so much that whenever I go to their home I bring some with me! read more

I came back to try the cookies, and they've got to be my favorite to order here so far! They're not dry. The chocolate has the perfect amount of sweetness. The crunchy chocolate cookie with peanuts has such a unique cookie flavor! The price is reasonable as well. The service was great. Someone called me while I was in the middle of ordering, and the staff was really patient. This is such a nice, cozy local bakery. read more

I bike from Flatbush to Queens every so often, and every time I zoom down Queens Boulevard, I pass by this shop and tell myself I'll drop by and check it out...on the eve of Thanksgiving, I came on a whim after being intrigued by the tasty treats in the window. When I saw the red center and the powder sugared circles, I knew I had to get it -- Lintzer tarts, my favourite. This place is literally a hole-in the wall; the shop front is slightly bigger than a closet, but the offerings are larger than life. I resisted the urge to get anything more, so I just settled for one large Lintzer, only setting me back 4$. I think hands down this is the best Lintzer tart I've had in the city. The quality, flavour, and service all make this my new favourite. read more

I live in forest hills for decades, I know all the best spots. THIS is the best place for fresh fruit pies in town, apple, cherry and blueberry pies are so good. it's just sublime. you can taste the fresh blueberries and lemon juice, and they use a wonderful cookie tart crust. prices are great and I can guarantee that you will be the hit of the party if you bring one of these babies.. I think the apple and blueberry are the best the fresh apple slices across the top are so fresh, it's as good as it gets. they close a little early. Trust me. I have a major sweet tooth and pastry is my thing.. support a local busines. Fresh, vibrant ingredients and it's always amazing. read more

I stopped in here after seeing the storefront as I passed it in a bus. It looked like a very old school bakery to which it seems, is a dying breed. I went in to get a linzer tart and a cherry strudel. The linzer tart cookie was out of this world! It reminded me of how they used to make them when I was much younger. I have had linzer tart cookies from many bakeries in the past year but none hold the candle to this one. It is the best! The cherry strudel was fantastic with all its phyllo dough layers and very delicious cherry filling. The girl behind the counter was very cheerful and packed my goods to go. It's a small place but to me, those pastries are heaven sent! Cash is king there but they do take credit/debits cards to which they charge a 3.9% fee in addition to the product total. read more

I bought one apple pie today and one cheese and cherry strudels. Never again both tasted old and the apple crust was thick and not crusty nor fresh. Never go back again. I called and I told the girl also who picked up the phone but she gang up the phone in me. Just wanted to let them know my opinion. read more

Time for some sweets......Andre's has a decadent treat for you. The love affair begins as you stand in front of the store and glance in the display window at the freshly baked goods. When you open the door your met with the scent of butter and the sweet scent of cakes and pies. My all time favorite is the blueberry turnover, followed by the apple turnover. Best words to describe these two is fresh, tasty and an ultra flaky crust that melts every taste bud in your mouth. Don't go late or you will have a harder time getting the turnovers they are just that popular. The turnovers are $3.00 each and roughly the size of your hand. The Linzer torte which is a traditional Austrian pastry is comprised of two shortbread cookies (one with a hole so you see the jelly peaking thru) with fruit preserves wedged between the cookies and a dusty of confectionary sugar. The Rugelach, which comes in chocolate or raspberry.....(raspberry is our favorite) can be ordered by the pound. A pastry with swirl of luscious raspberry filling baked to perfection and ready to be devoured (it may have crushed nuts in it so check with the person at the counter before ordering). Andres has so many options to choose from, streusels, tiramisu, a variety of cookies, cakes and Sacher torte cakes (yes you can buy the entire cake or just get a slice). The Sacher torte is a chocolate addicts dream, made with a dense chocolate cake and covers with a chocolate glaze. You go in to the bakery and after placing your order you most certainly will need that elastic waist band on your pants lol. The staff is always friendly and helpful. There is also a location in nyc at 1049 1st Avenue bet 57th & 58th St. read more

My husband missed their famous strudel and croissant. Since we were around the area, we passed by and rushed to catch their closing time. As expected, their croissants has overwhelming chocolates and the strudels with overflowing apples. Always tastes the same just like as my husband remembered. I enjoyed it too. Recommend to try it for those never been to this bakery. I assure you , tastes better with a cup of coffee. read more

I love a good babka, but I've had only a few so when I saw it on their menu I ordered a chocolate one. $15 for a whole babka seemed pricey at first but it's a big portion. The chocolate is rich and the pastry is flakey on the outside, soft inside. We usually make a strong cup of coffee and have a slice or two.. the chocolate is good but it's also a lil gritty from the sugar. Would be great warmed up... The bakery smelled really good. Would love to try one of their blueberry pies later on when berries are in season. read more

I ordered strudels online via Grubhub and was very excited but, unfortunately, what I received was horrible. Strudels were clearly dry and burnt. It looked like it was not homemade but frozen fillo dough with filling. Poppy seed one was the worst. Apple strudel was not as dry however it was tasteless. I'm sorry, I really hoped it would be a good place :( read more

Unwise decision and Dramatic change in this first class bakery. Have always been top-notch- I love the cherry strudel cake. However I went today and all of the strudels and baked goods are wrapped in plastic individual servings. Are they for real? This completely changes the texture of the crust on all of the goods and the look of items for the worse. they should know better I dropped the $ 35 of cake items that I was planning on purchasing, I'd like an explanation why they thought this was a good idea. Sad sad read more

Their rugelach are famous. I learned about the bakery years ago when a colleague mailed a pound of Andre's rugelach. They are 5*. Fast forward and I know live nearby and will pick up a slice of cake if I'm need of a high quality sugar experience. They're worth the calories:-) Their dobosh torte and seven layer cake are a chocoholic's dream come true. They now have a couple of tables outside. Need a cake for your next event? Try them. They've been around since 1976 with good reason. And they now accept credit and debit cards. read more

Confession: It's this delicious Blueberry Compote Tart pie that keeps me coming back to this shop again and again. Had this pie during the Holidays and just couldn't stop thinking about it. So decided to trek my way to Rego Park to get this pie. Boss lady told me there's only one available since it's already late in the afternoon. Bought the pie ($16), took it home, and devoured it. Pie itself has a buttery shortbread crust, and crumbles on top. It's the Blueberry Compote that's the star of the pie. Blueberries are not too sweet nor tart to overpower the entire pie, but compliments itself with the crust on the bottom. Because it's not too sweet I can continue bite after bite without realizing I almost ate half the pie. Shop sells other pastries, so will definitely come back for their sweets. read more

Andre's Hungarian - Blueberry Compote tart pie - Bakeries Near Me - Forest Hills, New York

Sorry to say, but got a linzer torte, and some rugelach. The rugelach were a little stale, but. the linzer, utterly inedible - and it takes -a lot- to make a jam filled cookie and dusted with confectionery sugar inedible. Stale but not even in a soggy way - just gross. One bite and then spat it out and the rest went in thto the garbage. Nice person behind the counter, though. read more

I came in with high hopes but was generally unimpressed. The rugelach have a nice flavor but are quite a bit too try. I'd really come for the beigli: the poppy-seed flavor was rather weak (although the raisins do help prop it up) and the intervening dough is thick and dry, with an egg taste stronger than the poppy taste. I will admit, these do go well with tea (the dryness balances out a hot drink), but I'd rather not have to steep a cup to enjoy my pastries. read more

Unlike quality establishments, they have no issues selling stale baked goods. So make sure to ask what is fresh. But why bother as most items are sub par and of poor quality. read more

Best Bakery in my neighborhood. Their Hungarian pastries is even better than the pastries in Budapest. My favorite are cheese biscuits, blueberry pie and rugelach. read more

Andre's Hungarian Bakery is the real deal! My family has been patronizing their Forest Hills location since I was a little girl and I remember the older Hungarian woman who owned it. She is no longer with us, but I'm glad to say that nothing about their pastries has changed. They're most well-known for their strudel and rugelach, but they carry a large assortment of Hungarian and and European treats that can't be beat! They are a kosher establishment and use butter, I believe, so it's not parve for the kosher meat-eaters. I have never been disappointed by their apple and cheese strudels with their flaky crusts, and the raspberry rugelach... well, I cant stop at just one. One day I am going to have to try their cabbage strudel, which will be more savory but every bit as delicious, I'm sure. Andre's is not only one of the few authentic European establishments left in the area, but it's become a Queens institution and I hope it stays around for many years to come. My only recommendation is that the woman with extremely long nails working the front counter stop using tape to close the bakery boxes and figure out a way to tie the bakery string. Part of the charm of a bakery is the string used to close the boxes! The gentleman working alongside her was closing boxes with the string and it looked much better and is the authentic bakery experience! read more

This is the second time I get goodies from this bakery. Im so in love. Their Babka is perfection. I scarfed down a slice of the chocolate babka, my husband just laughed.

The cookies are also wonderful...Im obsessed with this place. read more

Grabbed a pastry from Andre's Hungarian on Sunday morning. A very tasty item, but just felt too expensive for the size. Quality: I went with a Half Strip of Cherry and Cheese Strudel. After a brief return to the oven, it was a very tasty treat. Flakey and buttery on the outside and rich and creamy inside. Just be cautious of how long and how high you cook it. Quantity: A good sized item, but still felt pricey. Value: $15.00 for a Strudel Half Strip. Ambiance: Andre's Hungarian is located in the Forest Hills area of Queens. The unassuming bakery has just enough space inside for customers to walk along the counter and see the different options. Enjoy the smells while you visit. Crowd: The shop was extremely quiet, but the empty spots where baked goods once sat seemed to suggest decent business. Service: The woman behind the counter quickly wrapped up my selection and I was on my way. Parking: Street parking is not too challenging. read more

RUGELACH is the best I've had so far. The one with raspberry jam has just the perfect amount of that chewy jam texture and floral/tartness to complement the buttery cookie. The one with chocolate is slightly different in terms of the filling but just as good. CROISSANT - if you get the plain croissant, it's not your typical French style.. the dough is more like Danish imo. It's HUGE though. The chocolate one is pretty good. But again if I were to categorize it, I would say it's more like a HYUUUGE chocolate danish. It's LAYERED with TONS of chocolate and the corners are nice and hard and buttery.. the best part. I think I've tried the hazelnut torte cake here or something. I remember the flavor being good, but the texture wasn't that great. I haven't tried enough of their other items to give a thorough review but can def vouch for the rugelach! The lady behind the counter has said the blueberry pie/tart is delicious, esp during the summer when it's blueberry season, but I haven't yet had a try! read more

Stopped in for cookies and a blueberry cheese danish. The cookies go for $18/pound and the lady offered to do a mix of several for me. They were all delicious! I was surprised at how great the seven layer cookies were! The blueberry cheese danish was honestly nothing special though. I am looking forward to trying more of the cookies and some other bakery items. Very friendly and welcoming customer service. read more

I was curious about what laid underneath the hardened chocolate layer of Sacher. No one photographed a cross section of it. So, I did. I knew it had apricot, nuts and chocolate. I was told the nuts are in the cake. Indeed it was. I can't tell what kind of nut. Texture was ground not too fine, maybe thru food processor. I tasted and saw a hint of cocoa in the cake, but it doesn't taste chocolatey. Unfortunately, the nuts in the cake get caught in the crevices of my teeth. The apricot jam is the filling in this 2 layered cake. The jam is sweet. I would prefer a thinner layer of jam. And lastly, the hardened chocolate exterior. That was decadent and sweet. I'm glad taxes are included in the price. read more

My mom is an amazing baker and I have an irrepressible sweet tooth, so I'm always on the hunt for outstanding bakeries. This one is such a hidden gem! The Linzer cookies are some of the best cookies I've ever had -light and buttery with raspberry jam. The rugelach and other jam filled cookies are also fantastic. I'm not a huge fan of rainbow cookies, but my husband loves them from here. The blueberry cheese danish is also really good and big enough to share. read more

Wonderful place. The danish are all wonderful especially the prune, thats my favorite & Andre makes the best. I do not live nearby but when in the area I buy 10 & freeze them individually & they defrost perfect. Best prune danish in NYC! read more

A simple and clean no frills bakery. I was greeted by a nice older lady who rang me up for a challah raisin bread and a mix of chocolate and raspberry rugelach. I would give this palace a 3.5 stars but yelp doesn't give half stars. Taste - good, standard. There were a tiny bit on the drier side but I did come late in the day around 5pm. The challah was fine. Rugelachs were good. Have I had better? Yes, but there weren't bad at all. I just prefer the ones that's less sweet but have more chocolate taste. Price - a little pricey but it's a local bakery that needs to make money so I figured they can't really cheapen the price any lower. read more

Andre's Hungarian Bakery is a bakery that specializes in kosher Eastern European baked goods. It's a small counter-serve bakery. Probably too small to have seats even in a normal year. The selection's better than the website lets on. I got some chocolate rugelach and a vanilla rolad. The rugelach is finger food. Somewhat larger than bite-size. The rolad is similar to sponge cake but in a rolled/swirl shape. Both were good. The name 'rolad' is interesting. Several of their baked goods were labelled 'rolads,' so it's probably not a typo, but Google doesn't seem to know what they are. Quick, friendly service. read more
