We go on great Italian bakery hunts whenever we go into NY. We visited a bakery earlier in the day that will remained nameless here, and had disappointing pastries. Our main goal is always to find a fabulous cannoli- they failed- but Capri did not. Capri had delicious cannolis! We bought two big boxes of cannolis and ate them for three days after we drove back to our home state. We also bought a box of an assortment of pastries and cookies. They tasted good every day. We would definitely return. We didn't give 5 starts because the bakery itself lacks a little quaintness and magic. It's a bit generic and bland and could use some refreshing and imagination. read more

When I visit NY from GA I take some of these treats back! Absolutely delicious! Everything is fresh! read more

Asked for specific cake decorations for a 60th birthday. Picked the cake up and the cake was nothing at all what was ordered. The baker tried to convince me the cake looked better the way he made it. After I said no he tried to fix the cake. It still looked nothing like what I ordered; very sloppy! He still had to get his last word in how it looked better the other way after me paying for a cake that was amateurish and subpar in taste. Will never use this bakery again read more

Classic Long Island Italian bakery. Did an online order for Irish soda bread for St Patrick's day, quick and easy! I also stayed on the line and got more extra goodies. Everyone loved the soda bread! Will defiantly becoming back for more. read more

In 2023, I returned here for more cannoli and tried a number of flavors... did NOT write any Yelp review updates however. It was fun trying all their other flavors, yes, we tried them all, but I have to say that my heart still loves the original ricotta cream filling best. In 2024, I returned to Capri again for more rugelach, which is difficult to get since they only sell them on the weekends (and they only had apricot the particular weekend we went), and I tried another cannoli...this time, to comparison test with other Italian bakeries that I had recently tried (Maria's and Cardinali's). Well, I can now offer my non-Italian opinion and tell you that CAPRI bakery WINS my award for BEST CANNOLI (so far). It has everything I enjoy about a cannoli, and it will remain a winner by me. Next time I return to Long Island, I will try different cannolis from even more bakeries to see if Capri Bakery can continue its reign !! As for the apricot rugelach, I prefer their chocolate rugelach much more, although the apricot was good. Just not great like the chocolate. read more

Capri Bakery at 3434 Merrick Road is truly one of my favorite local spots! Every morning, the service is always amazing thanks to the morning girls -- especially Rachel, who is the manager now, and Sophie. They're always friendly, attentive, and make you feel welcomed the moment you walk in. Their cheesecakes are absolutely delicious -- rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. And I have to mention the rainbow cookies... they are honestly some of the best I've ever had! Fresh, soft, and full of flavor. If you're in the area, you definitely need to stop by Capri Bakery. Great service, great people, and great pastries. Highly recommend! read more

The first time we came to this bakery, we got the best rainbow cookies. They were moist and delicious. The last 3 times we came here, the rainbow cookies were consistently old and dry! I think they were possibly a week old. Cannolis were not good either recently. Can't find myself coming back and spending significant amount of money on ancient goods. Really and truly, you can't be selling old food. It's ridiculous. What you can't sell, give them away at the end of the day or have your staff take them home. read more

I'm very particular about bakeries & I have to say Capri is one of my favorites. I mostly come for the rye bread because it is always fresh and authentic tasting but I enjoy the cookies and pastries as well. There is a great selection of goodies to choose from and everything is always fresh. I highly recommend! read more

'Good' bakery. Pignoli cookies were a little raw. And I don't mean too soft and chewy, I mean, the sugar didn't taste dissolved and the cookies fell apart - I'm no baker, but maybe a sign the dough wasn't mixed enough for the gluten to hold things together? That's not a texture you want in a cookie. And at over $40/pound for a sparsely pignoli-adorned cookie, definitely "meh". Rainbows were ok, thick layer of chocolate on top, if that's your thing. Italian bread was ok. read more

Many shops called 'Bakeries' are actually pastry shops. Capri is a bakery you used to find on every other block in New York City, but sadly, no more. You know a soon as you enter. That wonderful smell; freshly baked bread and rolls and cakes and cookies, all mixed together. Plus the women working the counter are very friendly and polite and patient. If I worked at this bakery my weight would increase 50 pounds. Free parking. Enjoy. read more

I meant to put this review yesterday as soon as we bit into our first pie right after dinner, because it was DELICIOUS! I bought a pecan pie, blueberry pie and cheesecake along with our ALL FAVORITE rainbow cookies to take Upstate for Thanksgiving. I was helped by Rachel and Sophia who handled the line of people effortlessly. They were extremely pleasant, and made the purchase quick and easy. I have been coming to Capri for 20 years and have not even wanted to try another bakery. If you have not tried them, you should, because you will definitely become a Capri junkie! LOVE them! read more

Worst bakery EVER!!! My husband wanted to surprise me and my family with rainbows and rugelach cookies upon his return to California, so he stopped here in the morning before his flight to pick up. He purchased 4lbs and asked if they had fresh rainbows to make the flight back to CA, and the associate, Marlene said that she had the freshest in the back. She went to the back and packaged up 4 boxes. He gave them a tip for her kindness. When he got off the plane, we opened the box and tried one and they were so stale and hard! We tried several from each box and couldn't believe he was duped into spending so much and was tricked. They were so hard, we tossed them all out. Please do not support this business. They lie and sell you terrible cookies which and had to be over a week old. Disgusting! read more

I was quite disappointed with my Capri Bakery visit this past weekend. The cannoli shells were so thin that they broke off in my hand. They were not the crunchy shells that I enjoyed just a few months ago. The chocolate chips that they were dipped in were too sweet and overpowered the cannoli cream flavor. The custard filled chocolate eclair I ordered was the size of a cigar. It was good but not much bigger than a miniature pastry at full price. The Napoleon was soggy & not fresh. Just a few months ago, I was sure this would be my new go to bakery for Italian pastries, but after this past visit I will pass in the future. read more

Very good cannolis and raisin cinnamon bread, always happy with the food I get there, Apple turnovers are also good so I'm always going back there for those specific things since I've always had Good luck there. read more

Cannot believe I paid $25 a pound for such mediocre cookies. Rainbow cookies were dry and flavorless. Spent nearly $40 a small box of average pastries. Definitely don't recommend this bakery. Should have went to Aroila in farmingdale like usual for their amazing pastries but wanted to try something closer. Never again. read more

My mom comes in here on Sunday and she always says the young girls are always soooo sweet! My brother saw a cake that he liked and wanted for his graduation cake, he got his masters! I go in I felt rushed, I got the wrong cake because I was rushed and this is how they wrote on it ! I didn't see any sweet young girls in there. I think it was the owners wife? Spanish women? Well she was nasty and rude And the owner came out to talk to a customer- he was not friendly at all. How embarrassing is this handwriting and the cake was well not worth the money. read more

Capri-My childhood bakery. It is family owned & some staff I have known almost my entire life. The owner is a doll & I usually am lucky enough to see her on most of my visits. I am not biased, as my love for baked goods has led me to all ends of the country. There is really nowhere comparable for traditional Rainbow or Pignoli cookies. (Obviously I like almond paste) These are THE BEST I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. They have pre-made trays of assorted Italian Cookies if you are in a rush or you can select your own. I always recommend the Blueberry Cheese Ring especially if you are bringing dessert or breakfast. The cannolis actually deserve their own little section. They are all homemade & fresh. Filled directly in front of you. There are different variations of cannoli fillings. Their Traditional is great but I LOVE Pistachio, Caramel, & their Nutella Cannoli filling as well. Semolina, Italian, & French Bread & roll selection is always fresh here. Go early in the day if you need something specific. Parking is on Merrick Road or in the small lot located on the East side of the bakery. The lot expands behind the adjacent building so Ive never had an issue finding a spot. For COVID-19 they are allowing only 2 customers in the store at a time. Wear a mask. They accept cash or card, no apple pay yet. read more

The pastries are better than the cookies. Fantastic sfogliatelle. Lots of choices. Beautiful cannoli cake.

Everything I've ever bought here was extremely dry. Especially their stale, dry , black and white cookies . I don't know how they have been in business this long . Will not be returning ! Ever again , thanks read more

My go to place on the weekends! Lately, I've been grabbing cheese and fruit danishes- and they are seriously the best in the area. Hard to find fresh, filled, glazed to perfection bakery danishes but this place is the real deal! Also their cannoli is so perfect! They fill the shells in front of you- as any real place should do (instead of having them prefilled behind the counter sitting and soaking their shells away). They have a variety of fillings- regular cannoli cream which is delicious enough, but also coffee flavored and pistachio flavored cream as well! So yum! They also have a choice of toppings to dip your cannoli into (sprinkles, pistachios, choc chips)- delightful treat to bring to a gathering! Everything here is A+ fresh! read more

Went looking to get a carrot cake for my daughters birthday, I ended up going here. They had one carrot cake there, I did not expect to pay $40 dollars for it. Did not look like anything special. At the end of the night we had this carrot cake and I was so embarrassed. It was so dry and crumbly no one wanted it, I wound up throwing $40 in the trash. Also, their customer service is terrible, very lacking. Nasty workers, don't waste your time and money at this dry ass dump. read more

Absolutely the best black and white cookie I have had. The brownies are always fresh and delicious. Have ordered banana cream pie for the holidays and that pie was devoured well before the homemade desserts were. That is a testament to Capri Bakery. Just a great local bake shop read more

Just ate some sfogliatelle - really subpar. Every time I try to give this place chance, they disappoint. Way overpriced as well.

Just left the bakery. My usual, go to , close to the house. Literally up the street , cookie and cake spot. As usual the same lady that helps me was rude , again. Today she was upset that I got more cookies than expected. That means that she has to take the cookies out of the smaller box and get a bigger box. Such a tough job. She sighed and grimaced when I asked for more cookies. Shouldn't she be glad I want to spend more money. She acts like she has such a tough job. Get over yourself lady. It's a shame because the cookies here are fantastic. Unfortunately shes the problem. Not the products. read more

Friendly staff. Only went for donuts which were fine for Long Island donuts (were seriously lacking in good yeast donuts around here)

If there was an option to give 0 stars I would. The workers never fail to be so rude, and the owner is extremely impatient and annoying. I cut open a pastry and found dirt and a dead fly inside super gross and unprofessional. WILL NOT BE COMING BACK!!!!!!!! read more

Looking for a new place, I triedCapri Bakery. I took out a carrot cake, a strawberry shortcake, an Oreo cream cake, tiramisu and rugelach. Shockingly, it was all below par. The items looked pretty but were not wonderful. I served many guests and all agreed this was not a bakery they would use. Very disappointing and I will not return. read more

I hate leaving bad reviews. However, I went back & forth to this bakery numerous times to speak the baker. I was told he would be in the next day. He wasn't. When I finally got to speak to him, he told me to bring my own cake decor so it would be cheaper. I went and bought the stuff. Came back when he told me to & he wasn't there. His wife told me he just forgot. I was reluctant at this point, but his wife promised he was really good at his job. They knew I was picking this cake up for my mother's 75th bday, which was also my wedding day. I told them I just wanted Something simple to go with my wedding theme. $50 & this is what they give me on my wedding day!! Thank God my MOH is a baker & had left over icing from my cake to fix it! I'm sorry but they should be embarrassed. This cake looks nothing like anything that I saw on their website or what I showed him! My bridal party thought it was a bowl of cereal. ‍ read more
