I wanted so much to like Francesco's. It was our first time visiting and the bakery held an old…read moreschool charm, but after trying a variety of items, a 2.5 seems most fitting. The displays were filled with a nice variety of butter cookies, cakes, doughnuts and other classic pastries. Everything "looked" good, but the taste was just average. I would have pushed it to a 3 star review, but the young man behind the counter wasn't very friendly. The store was as empty when we went in so it wasn't like he was busy trying to take orders quickly. We told the young man that we would be ordering a variety of butter cookies and he looked at us annoyed and continued to serve us with a similar attitude. I guess maybe this is the expected service from the generation nowadays? I just expected more from a place that appeared so charming. The rainbow cookies seem to have anise in it, which is a bit odd for a rainbow cookies, and the chocolate coating was not very cocoa forward. It was also lacking jam. We were also really excited about the chocolate sandwiched butter cookies, but while the cookie itself was fresh, the ganache was missing the rich chocolatey flavor. Instead, it almost tasted like carob or some sort of diluted chocolate instead. The cookies itself were also not buttery enough, though they did taste freshly baked. All in all, Francesco isn't something to write home about and it's not a place I'd visit again.

Francesco's Bakery NEVER delivered our wedding cake…read more We ordered our wedding cake from Francesco's and called two days in advance to confirm delivery. The staff assured us it would arrive early, around 11:00 a.m. However, by 1:00 p.m. on our wedding day, the cake still hadn't arrived. When we called the bakery, they told us they couldn't get in touch with the driver. It took another hour before they realized the driver never had the cake and that it had been left at the bakery the entire time. At that point, it was around 2:30 p.m. Not only was this incredibly frustrating, but it also caused unnecessary stress on our wedding day--something no couple should have to deal with. Unfortunately, we had to pick up the wedding cake ourselves. Since then, we've spent the past week trying to get in contact with someone to address what happened, with no success. I asked for the owner's phone number and left a voicemail two days ago, but still haven't received any response. Overall, this was a VERY disappointing experience. I would NOT recommend anyone to order from this bakery.

On Sunday morning, we were heading over to Glen Cove, so I called at 10:32 AM to place an order. A young girl picked up the phone. I ordered two sausage, egg, and cheese sandwiches, an eggs Benedict platter, two egg and cheese sandwiches, and a cup of coffee. The young lady informed me that the coffee might get cold by the time I arrived, but I told her I had no problem with that since I was already on my way. She proceeded to repeat my order back to me and said, 'Thank you, we'll see you soon. Have a good day.' I thanked her and hung up. We arrived at St. Rocco's Bakery within 15 minutes. I waited in a long line, and as soon as a young man assisted me, I informed him that I was picking up a phone order for Veronica. He went to the kitchen and came back saying, 'They are working on your order right now.' I said perfect, and asked to add an extra coffee. He went to get the coffees and then checked back in the kitchen for my order. He came back out and asked, 'Are you sure you called the right location? There are no orders under Veronica being made.' I took out my phone and showed him the 10:32 AM call. I asked if it was their number, and he confirmed it was. I explained that I called, placed the order, and had it repeated back to me. He looked shocked. The chef then came out and asked another counter employee if she had taken the order. She didn't speak a word and just kept staring at the chef without acknowledging me. I got extremely aggravated by the situation, especially because no one apologized and no one offered to quickly make my breakfast. So, I just left. Unfortunately, St. Rocco's Bakery has lost a customer, along with my whole family. Si pudiera darle cero estrellas a esta sucursal, lo haría. Quedé muy decepcionada. Siempre he pedido el desayuno aquí y nunca había tenido ningún problema hasta esta vez. El domingo por la mañana nos dirigíamos a Glen Cove, así que llamé a las 10:32 AM para hacer un pedido. Contestó una joven. Pedí dos sándwiches de salchicha, huevo y queso, un plato de huevos Benedictinos, dos sándwiches de huevo y queso, y una taza de café. La joven me informó que el café se enfriaría, pero le dije que no tenía problema con eso porque ya iba en camino. Procedió a repetirme el pedido y me dijo: 'Gracias, los vemos pronto. Que tenga un buen día'. Le dije gracias e igualmente, y colgué. Llegamos a St. Rocco's Bakery en unos 15 minutos. Hice una fila larga y tan pronto como un joven me atendió, le informé que venía a recoger un pedido por teléfono a nombre de Veronica. Fue a la cocina y regresó diciendo: 'Están trabajando en su pedido en este momento'. Dije perfecto y le pedí agregar un café extra. Fue a traer los cafés y decidió volver a la cocina para verificar el estado de la comida. Salió y me preguntó: '¿Está segura de que llamó a la sucursal correcta? No hay ningún pedido a nombre de Veronica'. Saqué mi teléfono y le mostré la llamada realizada a las 10:32 AM y le pregunté si ese era el número. Me dijo que sí. Le dije: 'Llamé a este número, hice el pedido y la señorita me lo repitió'. Se quedó muy sorprendido. El chef salió y le preguntó a otra joven en el mostrador si ella había tomado el pedido. Ella no decía nada, solo miraba al chef sin dirigirme la palabra. Me molesté muchísimo con la situación, especialmente porque nadie me pidió una disculpa y el personal ni siquiera se ofreció a prepararme el desayuno rápidamente, así que simplemente me fui. Desafortunadamente, St. Rocco's Bakery perdió a una clienta y a toda mi familia.

I got a black and white cookie, and should have figured that a French bakery might not have known a good recipe, but I tried. It looked wonderful from the outside, but did not taste good at all. The "white" didn't have a passable flavor and might have been lemony (which is a no-no for B&Ws). The "black" didn't taste very good either and I wasn't a fan of the cookie-cake bottom. If Saint Honore tries to redo the recipe they should concentrate on the flavor as much as the looks. Positives: right size, right shape and frosted on the correct side.

The fresh bread - the onion loaf is the best in NY; the ciabatta is crazy delicious and addicting. Love their cannolis - filled and I do mean filled to the max with the heavenly and creamy ricotta cheese mix and those chocolate chips. Their cakes are in a league of their own- no one can touch their rainbow cake and cannoli cake. The fruit tarts have the best, fresh fruit and are also divine. The muffins - banana nut, pistachio and cranberry are scream worthy( as in shout out loud awesome). Saving the best for last - the almond horns. The coffee is really good too. The bakery is immaculate. I mean spotless. The ladies working are sweet, sharp and very courteous. I love that they opened a custom cake shop right next door in 2013 specializing in wedding cakes. Cardinali Carle Place is open 7 days a week. If you come by around 7:07 am look for this guy in the parking lot smiling as he loves on his fresh loaf of bread dipping it in his hot coffee.
