Do yourself a favor and forget about getting another pack of processed cookies from a supermarket. Come here and get one of everything instead. I'm partial to their biscotti, butter cookies, chocolate chunk cookies, and strawberry tarts. Service is friendly and seating is available (most of it is outside). read more

The best rainbow cookies! Everytime I get them and bring them to work my co workers go bananas!!!! Although 25 bucks for a pound of cookies seems a bit excessive unfortunately everything is super expensive nowadays ‍ read more

Catania is an exceptional bakery, renowned for its delightful assortment of cookies and tarts. Their cakes are also excellent, but I especially enjoy ordering their cheesecake, which never fails to impress. read more

I'm not sure what this bakery thinks that they're doing charging as much as they're charging for the quality they are serving. They must've changed their baker number one because their recipe has changed and not for the better.. this needs to go back to prices from 2016 because it's just not what it used to be. I was born and raised in this area and have been coming here since I was a child I'm 35 and I'm sad to say I won't be going anymore.. their flavor and recipe has changed and the prices have gone up not worth it anymore read more

Packaging looked so cute and it's a nice small Italian business. I wish the pastries had names on them... I want to know what I'm ordering and any special names to learn. Idk if they changed that since I went a while ago. No seating anywhere, solely a to go order. Ladies were nice and willing to help. read more

I stopped by to grab a few goodies for the road. The parking is difficult. Be sure to have someone sit in the car while you run inside! Everything was fresh! I'm definitely returning! read more

My family's go to spot for fresh semolina bread. Also recently discovered their on UberEats. Breakfast sandwiches always a hit. Cannoli is prob best around. read more

My family (not me) has been a long time customer since childhood. They live in CT and asked for a nostalgic order from their favorite bakery. It's been years since they come back. Seems as if the business and business model has changed for the worst. They got the order wrong, acknowledged that it was wrong and after several calls with non of them returned - i came in person to rectify the issue. Not only were they rude, though they acknowledge the error, they refused to refund the money (for what was missing), they made me feel like I'm was the problem and threatened me on top of that. I have to laugh cause the $$ Amount is soooo insignificant. They hire teenagers who have no control, they have a fake mob boss who comes out to threaten you and at the end of the day nothing was resolved. This situation is sad, pathetic and I'm sorry I had to waste so much of my valuable time. Never again!! read more

Love their cheesecakes! Not too dense, very smooth. Pretty good birthday cakes too, fresh and not overly sweet.

These are some of the best and most authentic Italian treats outside of Italy! I went to Catania, Sicily recently, and I have to say these treats are as sumptuous and traditional as found there. The lobster tails are amazing! But really, any thing there is an absolute delight! Go again, and again. You won't be disappointed! read more

Bought the lobster rolls and eclairs for the office. Their pastries are really fresh and consistently good! read more

Chocolate cake heaven! If you're around the area, don'tforget to get it. It's not overly sweet but mousse is so velvety and the cake is soft and moist, I would say this is one of my favorite chocolate cakes I've tried! read more

A cool, clean bakery with a variety of reasonably good pastries. They seem to do non-chocolate things better, for whatever my two cents are worth. read more

This bakery is always nice and clean and the pastries are amazing. Also, the cakes they make good breakfast.

Catania Bakery has an amazing selection of Italian Breads, Pastries, Cookies, Cakes and surprisingly Hero sandwiches. Customer service was on point, lovely lady behind the counter was very informative and had some great suggestions on what to try out. I couldn't help myself so I got a little of everything. I am happy I did because everything was delicious, most importantly not to sweet. Would definitely be back on my next trip. read more

We got some cannoli shells from here because this place makes awesome. My aunt and cousin spoke so highly of this place. So what we ended up doing was legendary. We took about a dozen cannolis shells and made all feeling and took them home. Making can always show it isn't easy, but this place makes cannoli shells so well. So we ended up doing is making our own cannolis with the shows that they baked. They did an awesome job making those cannolis shells and I am a big fan of their cannoli shells. I would definitely come back here again and I highly recommend this place for people who have a sweet tooth. read more

If you've never been here, you're failing your sweet tooth requirements. This bakery is no joke and they bring their A-game. The staff keeps thing moving and they don't wait for slackers to take their time with the order - it's that old school Brooklyn, Italian vibe that I love. I bought some cannolis and a few other Italian pastries (not a clue what they're called, but the one was hella rum infused), and it was out of this world. You gotta check this place out. read more

Absolutely delicious and fresh! Love it !! I go here every Sunday .. I totally recommend this place especially for holidays ! Their thanksgiving selection was amazing !!! read more

As soon as we walked into this place we smelled the fresh baked goods penetrating our senses. Wow wow wow! Prices are extremely reasonable. You can tell the baker when he refills the displays he poured his heart into baking the pastry. We ordered 4 delicious mouth watering deserts and couldn't wait until we got home to devour them. Absolutely delicious. While waiting we noticed many people ordering the coffee. We can't wait to come back and try it. Thank you for being in our area! We love you! read more

This is a daily stop for my husband and I. He loves their breads, because most of them are semolina flour based, and he likes the flavor more. They do offer a slicing service for loafs, we usually decline so I do not know if there is a fee. It is always nice to have their fresh breads and croissants around the house. They also have delicious desserts. I am still waiting to try their cheesecake. You can smell sweet cookies as soon as you walk around the block, it drives the kids in the neighborhood crazy. Their bagels look huge, but they do not toast them or have cream cheese for them. So whatever you buy at Catania, you will need to prep yourself at home. I had their iced coffee and liked that too, but it was a bit pricey and their was sugar grit in the bottom of the cup. They do not have lids for their cups and are cash only. read more

now THIS is a sandwich made with love. best sandwich around honestly. pastries are really good too but gd that sandwich

Customer service in Catania bakery on Fresh Pond Rd does NOT exits. I ordered and PAID for 2 olive loaves on Thursday, when I was told they would make the bread. My husband went today, with the paid receipt and the person working told him they did not make the bread! The never had the decency or brains to call me and tell me they did NOT have the bread. When he went, he asked for the $12 I paid for the bread they DID NOT made. She told my husband she WAS NOT AUTHORIZED TO DO THAT. He was livid. Repeating in the bakery, loudly, I want my money back. He said call the cops because I am not leaving. After several minutes, she asked a worker in the back if she CAN return the $12, she WAS ALLOWED and he left. What kinds of incompetent business policies, or lack of, do the have. NO BUSINESS ETHICS AT ALL. They lost a GOOD CUSTOMER. read more

Love this place. I've never had a bad experience here. The baked good are fresh and flavorful and go great with their coffee which is also quite good. I always get the chocolate rugelach which is something I was introduced to at this bakery. The deli sandwiches are made fresh and worth the wait, but it can be confusing to figure out where to order deli when everyone else wants bakery. read more

A far cry from what they used to be. Starting with sour ricotta and cream in lobster tails, to jelly filled cookies that taste like they have pepper in them. We need to return to a time when flavor was valued as much as profit. read more

My first time going there today 5/23/21. I had their Italian bread - crusty on the outside and airy and chewy on the inside - absolute perfection!!! Also had the croissant-flaky and crusty with a well-balanced buttery flavor. Will definitely continue to go there!! read more

If you want to find the BEST pastries co.e to this small corner place food is amazing and awesome service

What a wonderful Italian bakery. The smells alone will make you go wild. Came in this morning with the Princess on our way to the L train and we got this creation that was bread style cake, covered in granulated sugar and filled with Canolli cream. Sweet but not cloying with the right amount of give. A filling and delicious breakfast treat. Everything else looked great and those cherry danishes are next on my hit list. read more

Hands down my new favorite spot in Brooklyn/Flushing! The sandwich maker is always a delight to talk to and he will eventually start predicting your order if you swing by enough. The women at the bakery counter are always very sweet and helpful. Go try a sub or a turnover! I always get the Phil, #7. read more

Was closed before the indicated close time. Was suppose to close at 11. Walked about a mile to come here and upon arrival saw that the gate was fully closed with no signs of being open recently. read more

When you walk in, this bakery is spotless and all the cakes and pastries are displayed beautifully. Friendly staff, and most importantly; Delicous cakes! The perfect combination of sweet, moist and rich. Not overly sweet, just the perfect balance. Real Italian bakery- can't wait to go back read more

Not only is the staff so friendly and gracious, the food is delicious! I recently ordered a few items from Catania Bakery, and when delivered, saw that two of the items I had ordered were missing. I called the bakery and they were amazing! Not only were they so kind and apologetic, but they even sent out a new delivery with my missing items plus some treats. I'm so grateful for their generosity. I know it's a stressful time on everyone including small businesses. If you've never been there, definitely try it! read more

Catania is my go to bakery for sweets. Their cheesecake and coffee-cake are out of this world. I also recommend the butter cookies. They also have amazing breakfast sandwiches. read more

They have everything. Cookies, cake, pie all to die for. Huge selection. My cakes were pretty fresh. just updated my review 4 to a 5, eliminating some of your plastic packaging. Awesome! read more

If the Greek Gods sit atop Mt. Olympus flanked by nectar and ambrosia, I'm pretty sure Jupiter and Juno lounge about on Mt. Etna, gorging themselves on Inis made by this bakery. While the sweet, sweet cannoli cream which fills this pastry is solid and delightful (Laguli's makes it better), the perfectly made, perfectly textured and perfectly sugared bread/doughnut which encases it is shattering. Go and get it, it is unique and you won't be disappointed. Also had the Cartocci (together with the Inis is the bakery's signature sweets and they sell out pretty quickly after they come out at about 11am), the Genovesi (lemon filling, great texture and not too sweet) and the chocolate cigars. Their semolina bread is very very good. read more

This place has 0 vegan options which is pretty sad & excluding.... I will admit the coffee is delicious but could they at least have an option for OAT milk I mean cmon, it's 2019 already ! Update ! read more

I love this bakery since I was a little girl my grandma would buy me there cookies breads pastries so delicious and great family business!!

I wish we could separate the deli from the bakery. The DELI is a 3.5 with good portions, fresh tasting fillings and an enthusiastic staff that really listens to you. The BAKERY side staff were great folks too however the products tasted off to me. I hate writing that but ended up going several times to get a range of items including brownies, muffins, cookies, cannoli (some suggested by staff) only for the flavors &/textures to seem amiss e.g. sour, sub-sweet, stale. read more

Beautiful breads, cakes, cookies and other delicious treats! We were on good behavior (lol, since we had just eaten brunch) so we tried some cookies and a tiny fruit tart. All very good and as such, I'm glad we're merely visiting this area for a few days or I would become a Catania addict! read more

So good! Everything we got was fresh and delicious. Great assortment of cakes and pastries.
