    EXTREMELY RUDE SERVICE & SERIOUS FOOD-HANDLING CONCERNS…read more The Ambrosia Bakery - Stratford 1040 Barnum Avenue, Stratford, CT Public business listings identify John Chaves as the owner/principal. Absolutely unacceptable experience on Monday, September 7, Labor Day. To be clear, I did not interact with the owner; my experience was with a dark-haired female employee behind the counter. Despite spending over $100, I was treated with a shockingly nasty, hostile, rude, and unprofessional attitude. When I complained about her behavior, she actually told me not to return. Even more concerning was what I personally observed around the food: her fingernails appeared dirty, she was not wearing gloves, and her hair appeared loose and insufficiently restrained around the food/service area. Combined with her treatment of customers, this left me seriously questioning the standards being maintained here. I will be submitting a complaint regarding what I observed to the appropriate Connecticut/local health authorities for their review. A bakery should provide courteous service and inspire confidence in how its food is handled. This experience did neither. Ownership needs to address both issues. I will not return or recommend this location and strongly urge others to think twice before spending their money here.

    Pro: The cakes were AMAZING! Looked amazing and tasted delicious. Several people asked "where did…read moreyou get this?!". Con: I went there is person to place my order for a special event. Confirmed the date and order 3x while there b/c the woman taking the order kept asking me the same questions repeatedly. Called 2 weeks before, paid for order in full and confirmed the date needed. Called 1 week before, confirmed the date and order. At pick up none of my order was ready and they had the date wrong! The special milestone cake I ordered could not be made for the party! I asked for two other cakes that were there (smaller) to make up the size of what I ordered. Was told "There is a price difference that you owe." I said, "You messed up my order, I think you need to eat the cost." She checked with the manager who agreed with me. In the end we got the only two cakes there so it worked out. But, NOT happy that after repeated confirmations they got the date wrong, nor that they asked me to pay the difference.

    I'm not gonna make today's review too long today, but I will write what I have time for as I ride…read morethe train. So way back when, I had first seen the place as Roly Poly Doughnuts or something of the sort. Some time in between, Tiffany's Place took over and has been here ever since. It's honestly a place I've been wanting to try at least once back during my overnight misadventures of the 2010's and I'm only just now getting to come here for the first time in 2026. I do notice that the reviews before mine seem to be mixed. People either love it or hate it. I can't say that I love it yet, but I definitely did not hate it. This is definitely more a place I might go if I have to wait longer for the train in between trains ever since I started transferring in Stratford over Bridgeport. Today's order consisted of a Large Hot Cinnamon Mocha and the two donuts you see in the photo attached. Honestly, nothing was bad about my order. The coffee I got was definitely better than that latte I had Ubered from New Canaan last week. As for the donuts, they were good, but they weren't amazing. I do appreciate that my French Cruller had a chocolate frosting on top, but as you can see from the missing icing some of it stuck to the bag. That's why if someone were to bag my donuts I'd prefer a chocolate glaze over any kind of frosting. I like getting the complete item. Speaking of the chocolate glaze, I liked the donut. Again, not a groundbreaking donut by any means, but I would get it again. The price is good too. Ever since the station cafe started doing a $10 card minimum, I stopped going to it because I can't justify paying $10 for a coffee when I need to use cash for other things. Here, I only needed to pay $7.25 for the entire order, and it honestly made more sense for me to order enough to that amount here. The coffee is cheaper too even if you take the $10 minimum argument out entirely. Where coffee was $3.76 at the station, this one was $3.21 before tax. Yeah, if and when the Waterbury branch has difficulties staying on time, I won't mind coming here again to try more things.
