One of the more long standing bakeries serving the greater Bridgeport & Trumbull area. It is (size wise) a larger store than Pombal (Bpt) and has the usual Portuguese confections & sweets including Pastéis de nata. A typical cake for serving of about 20 people will be about $40-$45. They have a refrigerated carousel of sample cakes to help you decide what is best for your special occasion. Just ordered a cannoli confirmation cake from Nice & Fresh today. They have a huge selection of cookies and ready made sandwiches also. Check them out! read more

I was visiting a resident of the area who's lived here for many decades, and he mentioned how this bakery has been around for a while as well. Now the only thing that I had from here was a sausage, egg and cheese on a Portuguese roll, so I can't comment on how anything else tasted, but I really loved my SEC. The roll was super light, and even though the size of the sandwich was big, it didn't feel overly filling. I also appreciate that they make the sandwich to order, and they'll even cook the eggs how you like them. There's a large amount of pastries and cakes available as well. read more

I've been buying Caraway Seeded Rye from Nice n Fresh for years. Considering the economy, I understand modest price increases, and tolerate smaller loaves, but recently their quality has really gone to h3ll. It started months ago with occasional air bubbles, but over time the air bubbles became more frequent and larger. Now their quality control is totally out of control and the holes are huge!. (see attached picture}. Nice n Fresh, which once made quality products, has become a big dissappointment for me. read more

I do recommend this bakery for cookies and pastry they are fresh and delicious! But the cake I ordered for an event was very dry, stale or frozen. The cake was beautiful on the outside,but definitely did not taste fresh! I was very disappointed! read more

I used to go to this bakery often before I moved to Florida came for a visit after 3 years just to find out they definitely don't have the same baker the cannoli cake was to die for well the cannoli cake now is a 30 dollar yellow cake with lots of wiped cream not much of what you are paying 30 dollars for the cannoli cream, two bites on a slice is what you get of the cannoli cream and I should mention the natas let me tell you I'm Portuguese they are not natas very disappointed will not go back ever read more

Pleasant employees and very good products. Service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this bakery.

Great customer service and great food. The cake and the sandwich I had was fantastic. I decor of the cakes were very amazing. The poppy seed hard rolls were the best I ever had. read more

My go to place for fruit tarts, italian cookies, and the best cannoli in the county! The mini cheesecakes are so comforting to me personally since my family has been coming here for years now! Service was quick and easy but I feel like the staff can be a little more engaging/approachable Reasonably priced! High quality pastries! read more

Hands down THE best bakery around followed by ambrosia, del pret. Anything pastry that comes from Bridgeport is THR BEST!!!!

Lupa was very helpful. She help me find what I was looking for. I ordered a fresh strawberry filling with custard in a yellow cake and whipped cream. I was worried because they had so many bad reviews but it was very good and would order again read more

Been going here for years. Recipes are pretty much the same but the service is terrible.

After a recent trip to the Bronx and being surrounded by amazing bread and pastries it's a pleasant surprise, so close to home, to see the large selection of cakes, pastries and fresh bread for such reasonable prices - 7 cakes/pastries, a large seedless freshly sliced rye loaf and six Portuguese rolls were just a little over $20. The place was loaded with muffins, cookies, bread, rolls, and pastries - so much to choose from! Update - after actually eating the cakes and pastries I downgraded my rating to 3 stars - the rye bread was amazing and the Napoleon was great but anything that was cake was very dry - almost stale! The Portuguese rolls WERE stale. Very disappointing!!! read more

Ordered my daughter's smash cake here. They did a really nice job with the cake. Price was great. The only thing I did not like was how they wrote her name, very sloppy. I also picked up some cute Halloween cookies for my daughter's class. I hope they have Christmas ones because they were delicious and very pretty. Oh, great bacon egg N cheese on a croissant. read more

Stale goods and horrible customer service. Got home and went to serve guests the chocolate mousse roll I asked for but was given a chocolate mousse pie. It would be 0 but that wasn't an option read more

We get our toogoodtogo from here and the food is always delicious. Plenty of food.. breads, sweets.

Got some lovely fruit pastries, donuts and rolls. Delicious! Everything was fresh and tasty. We will be back.

The new owner has Messed up this bakery! I have been a customer at this bakery for over 30 years, through several owners, who always kept the same DELICIOUS cake and buttercream recipe. I purchased a cake last Saturday and was DISAPPOINTED, the cake and buttercream recipe is not the same! A true cake CONNOISSEUR will notice the change! I guess I will now go to my second favorite bakery from now on. GOOD BYE NICE AND FRESH, NO MORE! WHY DID YOU CHANGE A GOOD THING? Prior to this last cake order, I purchased 2 cupcakes that tasted like the refrigerator, I SHOULD HAVE NEVER GONE BACK AFTER THAT... read more

Tons of stuff to pick from and everything looks really good. This review is based on only what I picked this past Friday! I got a tiramisu in a cup, 4 Portuguese custard cups, a Portuguese roll and a whole sour cream choc chip crumb cake. Everything was good but there was something very wrong with the crumb cake as it had a foul off putting taste that I couldn't pinpoint. Not sour cream but something like wrong with the ingredients. It was gross and everyone disliked it I only which I didn't get a whole cake of it!! You had to really LOOK for any evidence of choc chips. Also there wasn't much crumb on top to speak of. Skip on this cake if you see it or any of their crumb cakes rather. But YES to the custard cups! read more

They changed the recipe on their large chocolate chip cookies. We have been getting them on weekends for years. I got 6 of them today. They looked different, thinner than normal. That was not an issue but when we started eating them, we were not happy with the big change in the taste. read more

Purchased a cake here yesterday, cut into it. Upon doing so, w notice a e smell, a very foul and disgusting scent. Which smell like sewage. Took the cake back and they refused to refund our money or take ownership of thier spoiled merchandise. I will be calling the BBB as well as the heath department. read more

Terrible food and customer service to match. We ordered a cake for my mom's birthday and specifically said that we wanted a chocolate cake with no mousse. Well, the cake was not only mousse but it was AWFUL! There was a distinct flavor of pepper to the chocolate cake (I thought it tasted like cannabis). But whatever it was, several people said it and a few people didn't even get a heads up from us who tried it first. When I called, the useless person who answered the phone showed absolutely no sign of sympathy but kept trying to make excuses or poke a hole in my story...which she wasn't able to obviously, since this wasn't a prank. Do yourself a favor and trust these ratings. read more

Bought 2 napoleons and cannoli's there today, everything tasted old. The cannoli shells were soggy, and tasted old, the napoleon tasted like they were days old. Not good!!! 20.00 dollars straight in the trash! read more

This used to be a great bakery. Sadly,those days are long gone. Customer service and quality leave a lot to be desired.

I ordered a special cake for a 50 Year High School reunion with custom logo and decoartions. The Carrot cake was excellent as well as the frosting. Nice & Fresh paid Special attention to the school and class alumni logo. Price was fair and top notch service. I recommend Nice & Fresh Bakery and will make an extra effort to buy their baked goods and provide referrals. read more

Service was fast and professional ... cake came out looking better than picture shown , cream cheese filling was delicious however red velvet cake was very dry .. if visuals are priority this is your place if it's about taste then try another bakery read more

Nice N Fresh Bakery - Butter cream icing red velvet and cream cheese filling - Bakeries Near Me - Bridgeport, Connecticut

Apparently it takes more than 30 minutes to get: -a handful of Italian cookies -two cannolis -two bagels with cream cheese Did I mention the bagels were cold by the time we got them? Also, you probably shouldn't disappear into the back for 20 minutes when there's only two people in the front. Kind of embarrassing. read more

NEVER do business with Nice & Fresh Bakery on Huntington in Bridgeport!! Super unprofessional, rude and entitled! I placed an order for my sisters gender reveal cake and it was supposed to be half pink, half blue with boy or girl written on top. This is the cake they gave my mom, and it was all white, she had to ask them to write congratulations on top. When I called to complain about the cake, all the girls were very rude and laughing in my face. First they were saying there was no order for me, then they said they found my order and I never paid for the cake, then it was that my mom came in and ordered and paid for a whole new cake, and then it changed to we must've paid for someone else's order. I asked to speak to the manager and she told me she won't be in until 7 so to call at 7 (MIND YOU THEY CLOSE AT 7) they just thought I was dumb. She told me to hold for a few and hung up on my face! So I had my mom call since she's who picked it up and they are saying basically it's my mom's fault and she paid for the wrong cake which is also her fault. They also said it's her fault for not saying anything to them to fix it (mind you, my mom did not know what the cake was supposed to look like since she was just doing me the favor of picking it up. Also, she picked up the cake 30 minutes before closing, how would they have had time to make a whole new cake anyway???) So then they told her to call back at 3:30 when the manager comes in so my mom calls again just now and the manager basically said it's my moms fault too, taking no accountability so I called after and she immediately started yelling at me and hung up in my face telling me we should've confirmed the order like if that's not THEIR job. I'm sooooo heated right now, it's really GOD'S doing that I'm not in CT right now cause I would've flipped that shit upside down! HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!! read more

Absolutely positively stay away! Now owned by local chain Chavez, it's horribly awful. Today was pastry day treats for me and all I could do was take a bite of each item and toss the rest away. Disgusting and gross and lacking flavor and substance. Ick! What a shame as this bakery was one of the few remaining vestiges of real yummy tasty treats. That's dead now. read more

Their food is so stale that it is inedible. We tried a wide variety of desserts and they were all so bad. They also made our stomachs hurt. Do not go here!! read more

Best cheesecake ever. I have had Juniors in Brooklyn and it is a weak second to this one. Very good Egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches.

I've been here twice for the same reason - last-minute cakes. They have a wide variety available in different sizes and fillings. I was skeptical but they tasted fresh. The counterperson said this is a category they are known for - same day cakes - and they sell many each day. The first time I picked out a vanilla cake with vanilla frosting and vanilla inside. It was light and airy, not too sweet. The birthday boy approved. The second time we picked a larger cake with whipped topping and fresh strawberries inside. This cake had compliments from the group of adults. When I find a sudden reason to celebrate and think cake would make it sweeter, I'll be back here again. read more

I never usually come to this bakery, but I was out the area and stopped in for a cookie and an eclair. I bought a raspberry filled shortbread cookie and an eclair. The cookie was nice and fresh, but the eclair was stale. I was surprised because the selection was huge and the shelves were filled with beautiful cookies, cakes and pastries. Not sure what happened, but I was disappointed in the eclair. read more

Wanted some raspberry filling cookies to which in desolate had a quarter size amount in these small cookies so I wanted some. When I opened my bag and looked at the filling I had 3 cookies out of 4 that had small dollops the diameter of the inner tube of the fine tipped sharply cap. The 4th was abt the size of a nickel. read more

Well I am sad to report that after nearly 20 yrs of going to Nice & Fresh bakery they have severely disappointed me! I order 100 cupcakes eleven days prior to the event. The first call from the staff a day later asked if I wanted designs? I told her no, just plain white frosting, then 5 days later they called stating that they didn't have a cake tray big enough, so I went to Michael's to buy boards big enough! I then arrive to the bakery and had to explain to the staff the best way to place the cupcakes so that they looks the way I requested.. I gave them the date It was supposed to be ready in my original order, we go to pick it up and what do you know it's not ready!! My friend went to pick up her cake and when she asked when will it be ready the young lady shrugged her shoulders??! I can't begin to explain why this turned out so horribly but all I can say to any potential customer please be mindful to get names /dates of folks you speak to for the purpose of accountability and quality! Maybe they'll this to make the necessary adjustments or.... maybe they won't! read more

Had not so nice and fresh cake at a birthday party this past weekend. This use to be the place to get a cake from . . . never again!!!

I ordered a cake with Fresh strawberries and they put the jelly strawberries in it. I repeated myself 3X's asking if they have fresh strawberries because we do not like the canned strawberries. Very disappointed to cut open cake and see the canned strawberries. The owner would not refund me. She lost my whole family's business!!!!!!! She was very rude!!!!! read more

Customer service was horrible they gave me the wrong change back didn't apologize and had an attitude and I won't be coming here anymore

Worst experience I have EVER had at a bakery! Brought something back because they were clearly stale and the "owner" proceeded to argue and "educate" me on what the cookies should taste like. I have never experienced worse customer service in my life. Avoid at all costs and spend your money elsewhere, where you will be appreciated for your business and listened to if you have a complaint! read more

I go there at least several times a month and never had a bad experience. The service has always been good in my opinion and the breads and Danish always fresh and tasty. In fact once done with this review I will be putting in a bread order for St Patrick's Day... read more

Nice n Fresh has a huge variety of cakes, pies, pastries, breads, and just about anything else you'd want from a bakery. Everything in the place is seriously delicious-looking, it's always a hard choice pick just one special treat. My personal favorites are the Linzer tarts (both small and large sizes) - a tender shortbread filled with tart and sweet jam topped with powdered sugar - and the giant fluffy Portuguese rolls. The service is always really friendly and even when it's busy, you always seem to be out the door with your goodies in just a few minutes' time. Definitely worth checking out if you're the area. read more
