Great pastries, delicious cookies and pies and their bread is out of this world fresh and tasty.

It. Smells. So. Good! Great bakery, very crowded around the holidays. Their Philly Fluff cake is like no other I've ever had, think a cross between angel food cake and pound cake! Their rolls and breads are amazing, and the staff is wonderful. read more

I made a special visit to this bakery on Valentines Day and purchased a rustic fruit tart. for my wife.. I was very disappointed. It was not fresh and tasted like it had been sitting in the refrigerator case for several days. The crust was all soft and soggy. I go to a bakery to get a fresh baked product. Oh well... read more

Old school NJ bakery that hits about every high point for me. Brownies are a big hit for sure. Great variety. Birthday cakes are solid, buttercream is very good-NOT old school (no shortening film left in your mouth after a bite). The employees behind the counter are very accommodating and friendly. The owner was also very accommodating to tie the box (old school) string style! LOVE! My only negative is parking-but that's just Jersey. read more

I don't know of a better bakery within 15 miles or more. The quality is 1st class; of course with some of the prices to match. With such a high volume of business and great counter service, I am surprised that professional management is not on site. Instead, the head baker appears to be the manager who seems equipped to handle production but, absolutely ill-equipped and lousy in dealing with customers and with customer service. One such customer issue, that could have been solved some mutual minimal understanding, turned into something less pleasant for everyone in the bakery including customers both being served and those waiting for service. Owner, get a handle on it. read more

This is a great local bakery in Summit, New Jersey. Working in Summit my coworkers have raved about this establishment and have never actually got in until the other day. Although, I have been eating food from this bakery for years. Natale's has an assortment of cookies, cakes, quiches, fresh breads which all look delicious. I ordered a chocolate cake from here for a coworker's birthday. The Decour of the cake was splendid and the taste was exceptional. They make great crumb cake minis and their breads are delightful. If you have a big order be sure to call in advance as they were very busy. read more

Speechless. No words to describe the way this Philly Fluff changed my life. I am a cake connoisseur, but my my, i have never experienced something quite like this. At first glance, I didn't expect to think highly of it, due to the fact that there is no icing. Looks like it would be dry and flavorless. Boy was i WRONG. The most moist and savory cake I have ever eaten. One taste and I was hooked. I am highly considering serving this at my wedding, I don't think anyone can try a bite and not fall in love. read more

Very weird customer service. I called them to speak about getting a custom cake made. The lady at the other end started off polite enough and said she was going to put me on hold before helping me out. After a few minutes of being on hold, the call was disconnected. Thinking that it was probably an error I called back again stating that I was put on hold and needed to speak about a custom cake. The same lady picked up again and rudely disconnected me mid-sentence without saying a single word. I understand that she was probably not interested in helping me or getting my business. I am totally fine with that, just wish she had been more polite in turning me away. Not sure if she is the owner or an employee, but I am happy to take my business elsewhere. read more

I will travel far and wide to get a Philly Fluff cake from Natale's. Anything they made is absolutely delicious but this cake has been my go-to dessert for YEARS. We love to freeze half and have it when we host brunches! It's truly something everyone loves read more

Not sure about the some of the ratings here. I purchased 2 cakes to bring to an event and they had no taste except for sugar. Even the whipped cream tasted like sugar frosting. Sorry, no dice...this place doesn't compare to places like the old Allwood Bakery in Clifton or the even older Kielbs in Belleville. I've had better box mixes. The cakes look good, but unfortunately aren't. read more

Love this place. I boughtAlmost everything in the store and the place was packed but the line moves fast they were very efficient. I had so many different things and each one was better than the other one. Italian cookies the Tele fluff cake oh my God it was delicious can't wait to go back again read more

Baked goods are no better than other bakeries. Nothing special but, good. My reason for a lower review is that it is too pricey for the quality. Well, just too pricey for baked goods overall. Otherwise, it is a decent bakery read more

Walk into any party or social gathering with a dessert or variety of bread and you'll thoroughly impress the host and other invitees. The Philly Fluff is super famous. I've gotten countless people hooked on its incredible taste, texture and overall delectable aura. I bring it to almost all family parties and gatherings with friends and they all rave. It's become known in some social circles as "the Laura Cake." A new family favorite from Natale's is the Devil Dog Cake. Impeccable. Super moist chocolate cake shaped somewhat like a doughnut, sliced in half and filled with an insanely delicious whipped cream filling. It's topped with more of the filling and drizzled with chocolate and sprinkles. Wowzers. Speaking of icing, the icing on any given dessert - especially the cupcakes - is perfect. Literally perfect. I don't know what else to say other than it's perfect. The breads are great, as are the cookies. The Lindzer tarts are amazing. Fantastic variety and service. Natale's is my go-to place for all things sweet and good. read more

I was pretty impressed with Natales, a lot of people had raved about it and the staff was extremely helpful when i clammered in and said I need to bring food to my coworkers, and i have no idea what to get and I want to spend $X. Be warned, this is not your magnolia/crumbs bakery- so do not expect cupcakes. this is a traditional bakery with biscotti, brownies, italian cookies, cakes, etc. Everything tasted great and seemed fairly fresh, even the pieces we ate the next day. I was a bit disappointed at the size of the brownies for their price at $1.50. Many things are weighed by the pound there and feel free to ask them to remove anything if you think it's too expensive. both the canoli and eclair were about 3" long and each cost $1.25. Great find! Good luck in the parking lot read more

Discovered this place 16 years ago. Focus on Italian pastries, excellent cakes, pies and cookies. Nothing is overly sweet. Go to is the philly fluff cake which comes in plain, apple, marble, and blueberry. The fluff is a cream cheese round pound cake. Love the Sfogliatelle, cannoli and other mini pastries. Excellent strawberry shortcake. Don't miss pumpkin cupcakes in the Fall, seasonal offerings for every holiday. Fresh breads sliced. Never had a bad experience. read more

Philly fluff cake. Those three words are all you need to know; you'll thank me later! Pretty pricey but worth every bite.

I've obviously had their Philly Fluff which is unbelievable by itself and even better with milk or coffee! Recently had their Quiche. Between the two of us we finished the entire pie, it was that good!!! I think they make their Quiche only on Thursdays so we were lucky go there on a Thursday. Great place, highly recommend! read more

Ordered a fresh Strawberry Shortcake as requested by my daughter for her birthday. I wanted it to be the best, not a stale cake with preserves. Natales did not let me down. Beautiful cake, but beyond that...scrumptious!!! Daughter said "best tasting SS " she's ever had. And, this from someone who's traveled the world. From ordering online, through being serviced efficiently and with a smile, the entire process was seamless and beyond anything a consumer could ask for. We will definitely be regulars from now on. Can't wait to try many more of their creations. read more

A local favorite where a line is guaranteed on holidays. Their price is unbelievably reasonable and the employees here are always helpful and pleasant and that is refreshing. They have different kinds of quiche this afternoon. I tried the "three way" - cheese, tomatoes and spinach. It's very nice. My kids loved it, too. I think I'm going to learn how to make one. Their coconut cream pie looks inviting that I have just to get one. It went well with coffee. I'm dying to try their egg custard pie. They don't always have it. But the last time I bought one, I sent it for a party potluck that I didn't attend. read more

Amazing bakery with family history in Summit. Everything is good and reasonably priced, you don't see enough places like this anymore.

A classic Italian / NJ bakery experience. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of Dunkin and similar sad excuses for baked goods.

Terribly rude management!... I've been a weekly customer for nearly 10 years, and the first time that I call to put an order in management was extremely rude! They will not get another dime from me! Take your money where it is appreciated! read more

I go out of my way to stop here. During COVID they're limiting the number of people in the shop which is nice because it's a small place. Support local businesses and families and give this place a try! read more

Amazing bakery, best strawberry shortcake ever. My favorite bakery ever and I'm an avid sweets eater so I'm well aware of different bakeries around the world read more

Excellent old school family bakery. Love seeing this type of place. All to many are becoming a thing of the past

I ordered a cake on a Saturday (7-20)afternoon for my 2yo birthday party. Picked up the cake on Sunday (7-21) and it was a huge disappointment! Payed in advanced $68 for a cake that wasn't fresh at all and in general the taste was not right. Too bad for a bakery that offers fresh and quality cakes and cookies. read more

Best bakery ever! Very busy for holidays, you need to order early. Always polite, quick service and their "Signature" Pound Cake is soooo good. read more

Best local bakery. It's not a birthday without a cake from Natale's. Everything here is excellent.

This has been a Summit go-to for years. Today I visited. They are no longer making eclairs and offer cream puffs only in the bite size version. I was surprised at checkout to learn that these were $1.75 a piece. Young fellow said everything has gone up. Frankly, Natale's products are more 'regular' than high end or gourmet. Perhaps they are pricing themselves out of the marketplace. read more

GREAT cakes but so-so pies. Very helpful employees. Parking very limited, especially at holiday times.

Beautiful cakes and pastries. Great staff. A bit busy at times but usually no more than 10min's wait.

This place is amazing. I always walk in there wanting to eat everything. Highly recommend if you have a sweet tooth. Favorite: Their Philly Fluff cake is a must try and simply the best. read more

It's always a good sign when your local bakery hires local youngins to work the counter :) it's wholesome, it's clean, well managed, and obviously, it's top-notch baked goods. If I weren't overweight already, I'd be overweight simply bc I have no self control when I walk into this place. Good bye. read more

Generally like this bakery. Parking is not great. Picked up their iconic Philly fluff the other day and it was partially frozen. Not cool selling previously frozen baked goods. Disappointed with that. If it is a bakery, I expect fresh not frozen. read more
