A classic bakery. Love their meatball sandwiches, garlic bread, and pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. The space is small but the service is friendly. read more

Why no onions? If you like onion on your sandwich or any meal don't go here. Otherwise good

I have driven by this place probably 200 times in my life and never realized it was a restaurant. When I discovered that it was, I had to try it as I have lived not far for a long time (and on the west side of town my entire life) and never knew it existed. It was great. Definitely has its own vibe. I love that they open at 10 and close when they sell out. Something about not being so rigid is refreshing to see. The woman working the counter was extremely nice (and may or may not have paid for my Cannoli for it being my first visit. Immediately you see that they have baked goods in the display. They also have other treats like pasta salad an soda. they also sell pasta sauce and fresh baked bread. I went with the Meatball sub with cheese peppers which was fantastic. It came with Lay's potato chips, and I had a can of coke with it. I also got a slice of the banana bread which didn't last long. This place was great. A hidden gem. Simple but delicious food. A local secret of simplicity and great food. You can't really beat a place like this, and I am glad I found it. Speaking of finding it, may I recommend some additional signage? I mean it when I say I have driven this section of Marshall hundred of times in my life and had not idea this place was even a restaurant. Parking is a little weird. Plenty of it, but no stripes in the lot so you sorta have to figure it out. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning. Anyway, great place! 5 -stars! read more

Strictly went for a bakery item and must say it's an extremely small selection. They had a decent amount of cookies, one brownie and 1 cannoli I just got an oatmeal raisins cookie for 2.50. The cookie was quite dry and a little too fat for my liking. Best to try a sandwich. read more

I'd never heard of roasted potatoes & peppers on a meatball sandwich before and it is delicious. Meatballs. are so good and tender. The dessert cannolis are my favorite. I can make my own banana bread and cookies, but the cannolis are yummy read more

Excellent, tasty, freshly made Italian sandwiches and cookies (and desserts). Try the Italian Grinder, a mix of several meats with cheese on freshly baked bread. Very satisfying, fresh, delicious--wonderful and hit the spot for a super lunch. Friendly people inside. Gargaro's is so unassuming. A yellow house with a small sign. No place to sit. Just order your meal and go somewhere else to eat it. Well worth the visit. Can't wait to go back. read more

Family owned amazing spot for some yummy sandwiches, bread, family dinner and even some amazing sweets. You automatically get greeted as a person not a customer. They close when they run and that is often because it is very popular. They always have specials on bread around the Holiday's and it is amazing. read more

A basic space with a large display case. They primarily sell delicious sandwiches but I came it for their Italian pastries and cookies- the only thing I missed was a tall glass of Mike or a coffee. Stop by early because they close when they run out of their goodies- this is a multigenerational family owned business - get to to know them if you can. These types of businesses need to be supported read more

Awesome food to take home, The Calzones are to die for! My husband went there for the bread, but since passed away, I still show up for the calzones. read more

Food, service, and vibes like your Grammy's house! Just impeccable--no funny business ;) I'm a sucker for a classic sammie on freshly baked bread, and this spot does it right. Every good sandwich needs a sweet treat to accompany it, and you won't be disappointed by your options. read more

Hands down, the BEST pumpkin chocolate chip cookie EVER! Gargaro's Italian Bakery is truly a gem -- I love this place! Everything they make is absolutely delicious, and the staff is beyond amazing. Not to sound cliché, but they genuinely treat you like family every time you walk through the door. I can't recommend them enough -- it's one of those places that makes you feel right at home while serving up incredible baked goods! read more

A family-run business that knows your name & order when they greet you at the door. The interaction between the owners & customers is fun and always positive. I cannot recommend them too highly. Thanks! read more

I'm just starting to work my way through the menu but so far the sausage, meatball and Italian are amazing! The family are delightful and hilarious with great service, do yourself a favor and get a cookie. Highly recommend read more

I love this place! I've been coming here since I was a little girl with my Dad. I try to get something every time i'm in town! 10/10 Everything is phenomenal. Brownies, amazing! Calzones, amazing! Literally anything you get here will be amazing! read more

Food-excellent sándwiches and meats. Friendly place. Knows a lot of customers by name. Bakery was only okay. Would just get their excellent food next time. Like the old fashioned deli style. read more

It's so good! I've been coming here since I was a kid, as I grew up just down the street. Smaller menu now, but oh my goodness that calzone and sauce. MASTERPIECES. read more

Try the Italian slider, make sure it's heated up. And then their cookies are wonderful... Just a yellow house near the motor vehicle emissions testing site. Enjoy the food... read more

Cute little mom and pop shop. With all that's going on in the world, gave me a nice homey feeling. There isn't any dining inside or outside, strictly cash and carry. It's so easy to call in and place your order, unlike some of the crazy online ordering set ups I've experienced using here lately. I had the Spicy Sausage calzone and believe me it was Spicy. I enjoy a kick but I'll be ordering the mild next time. Whew, I think my ears are still blowing smoke! Honestly, I had to pick the peppers off and it was still plenty spicy. The flavor was good and the calzone definitely hit the spot. Very humble and unassuming just the bread, sausage, peppers and a small serving is marinara. For a light bite after, I selected the Chocolate Chip cannoli. A pure delight with its light and flaky crust filled with tiny chips and whipped cream. The exact amount of sweet without being sugary. I plan on stopping by again, next time I'm in the area. Just be warned, you better like it hot if you go spicy. read more

Gargaro's Italian Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Where to begin!? This place is phenomenally delicious! It's in a old house by I76 in the industrial area. It has a bakery and sandwiches available. The bread is fresh that day and the sandwiches are delicious! Takes me back to being at a New York City Deli! They make cookies, cannolis, and fresh pasta to go. Everything is fresh and delicious. You can tell this place makes it with love! I will definitely be back as many times as I can. I ordered the Italian Grinder, it was perfectly made! Perfect amount of meats, cheese, and dressing. Please try this place, it will not disappoint you! It's take out only, but worth the drive! read more

This is a drop in and take out place, definitely not for fine dining! But it's been around a long time and you'll notice has many good reviews. It's tucked away off of Marshall Street in Arvada very near the state emissions testing facility. It's not fancy at all but it does have a decent menu. We ordered a couple of sandwiches for lunch. Both came with chips and a pickle. Mine was the meatball sandwich. The other was a turkey sandwich. Both were decent enough. The meatball sandwich had plenty of meat although it was a bit bland and light on the sauce. Still it was enjoyable enough for me. The turkey sandwich seemed to be good too for the person eating it. Pricing was reasonable. All in all not bad at all! I'd say it's worth giving it a try if you're in the area. You can call ahead and place your order so it's ready when you get there! Next time I think I'll try the sausage sandwich. read more

Italian sausage calzones are fantastic! Local Italian place which has been here for years, well before the transplant tidal wave. The cannolis and cookies reminds me of my grandma's and very reasonably priced! Lots of native Italian Colorado specifically Denver Italian history in this bakery. read more

This place is awesome!!! Tried the Italian grinder and the sausage sub and both were delicious. Did I mention that they bake their bread fresh daily. A home baked cookie or cannoli for dessert is a must. Definitely recommend. read more

What a surprise! I was craving a sub but wanted something new. We got ham/cheese & Italian grinder. The bread is amazing! The sandwiches are packed full of meat. Prices are reasonable as well. We will be back! read more

1. I tried six or seven different Italian sausages in town since Audi at Cerroni's closed (a long time ago since he passed) and I like this one the best. 2. Although small, their food is over the top. 3, Way to turn a brothel (way in the past) into one of the best places to eat in town for lunch! Love your food!!!! read more

Lovely local Italian restaurant and bakery. Love the meatball sub and cannolis! Very friendly and knowledgeable people working everyday

Don't drive past! Make a stop if you haven't already. It's soooo good and made from the heart. Support your small business owner and get some good grub while you're at it. They have food to take and bake at home. Or sandwiches and calzones, etc made ready to eat. Cookies are amazing and I'm a sucker for a real cannoli... and these hit the spot. read more

Okay you need to eat here! This place has been here more than 30 years! You just don't find these type of mom and pop restaurants anymore! The service is above and beyond friendly. And their food taste great! Homemade pasta, sauces, calzones...lunch sandwiches! We will be back. If you haven't visited here get there early or call ahead because selling out is usually what they do! read more

Got an eggplant parm sandwich with bell peppers, which made me feel like I was right back in Jersey. Was full and still had a sandwich the size of my hand leftover. They're 90% legit - the extra 10% will come when they stop carrying Pepsi, which is blasphemous to this misplaced northerner. Luckily the sandwich is good enough to make up for it. Will definitely be back. read more

Little shop that does it right. Nice family run business. Great food and cookies too!

Feels like family. The best baked bread in all the land. Cannoli's are also out of this world. I would highly recommend for special occasions or just a quick bite. Call first, they close once they are out of bread. read more

Great bread! Sandwiches are middle of the road, tasty but there are better ones not very far away. I will stop for a loaf of bread every time though. Better to stop in the morning, they can run out. read more

Support a great family owned sandwich shop. It's small place but great people and sandwiches. I got the turkey and was very happy. Chips and pickle included:) read more

Big fan of this small business. They truly fit into a sandwich shop that you don't feel bad about spending your money at. I had the Italian and it tasted very good. It was the right portion when I ordered it with a soda and a cookie. Everything tasted fresh and made with quality bread. It isn't the best sandwich I've ever had but it's top 10. I will definitely be returning here to try some of the other hoogies that looked good. I had a very pleasant experience with the lady who worked at the register. It appeared that she took the order and then went into the back to make it. I thought this was pretty cool. The only unfortunate part about this place is there is no where to sit. I understand that there isn't any room indoors but it would be nice if they added some tables outside. read more

Stopped by for lunch and we got the cold Italian grinder and meatball sub. Each comes with chips and a pickle too. And they were nice enough to cut the sandwiches in half so we could split them! They both were divine!! We will be back to try the calzones too. And maybe some dessert as well bc everything looked so delicious! read more

An easy 4 stars for this local Italian bakery! This is a place that not even Yelp could help me find. A friend who lives in the area told me about it when I mentioned I like meatball sandwiches. Gargaro's has a very solid entry in the competition for best meatball sandwich. Homemade meatballs on homemade bread smothered with what I like to believe is homemade marinara and provolone. Soo good. Yeah, we came for the meatball sandwich, stayed to chat with a daughter of the family that owns/runs the bakery, and left with way more than we intended to. Like extra bread, some cookies, and other baked goods. Did we get some homemade sausage too? I think we did! They even have fresh pasta, although I can't vouch for it as I haven't tried it. Admittedly, Gargaro's is pretty hard to find. It's tucked in on Marshall where it goes under I-70. But I kinda like it that way. It's a hidden gem, one whose beauty you can't fully realize until you find it for yourself. read more

Purchased: 1. Sausage. Great flavor and very little fat. A different taste from my usual Belfiore sausage. A good change. 2. Pasta. A thick spaghetti. Very rough and so excellent at grabbing sauce. A wonderful texture. Mouth feel is great. Both were good choices and I will return. Friendly staff at the counter. read more

So fresh and yummy! I drove by this place for years and finally went home and looked on their website, it looked good with great prices. My dad and I went and tried it and it was so unbelievably good! The people were so nice! It was so quick and they apologized it took so long! And The prices are so fair! In fact writing this review has made me hungry and I think I will go back today!! read more

Nice local bakery , with lots of homemade goodies. Not quite up to the competition of the other NorthDenver Italian Bakeries, but good enough to have with Sunday night dinner. read more
