This bakery has been in Bensonhurst for as long as I can remember when I was a kid. I don't come here often, but recently I came here to pick up butter cookies for my office. The staff are attentive and helpful. The butter cookies weren't the best quality. They were very soft and didn't taste fresh. I don't think I will go for their cookies anymore. read more

I like their cookies with jelly mmmmmm!!!!! The pastries are not the best in the world but I consider them yummy! I often buy the chocolate mousse cake, the Napoleon and the lobster tail. read more

I love everything in people's bakery! their bread and cookies are the best, the pecan coffee cake is to die for ! Not too sweet ..so good very good service, this is the only place the young lady at the counter say Thank you every time ,even I just buy a hero bread for 45 cents! read more

Superb customer service as well... honestly extremely pleased with this place! They have my money anytime I stop by read more

Cake was eaten so fast - couldn't even make a picture! I ordered a custom cake (batman color theme) for my husband birthday at People's bakery. I couldn't help being a bit nervous and suspicion at first, here is why: 1. Price was as low as $35! (8inch round cake with Design!) 2. Didn't have an opportunity to see the lookbook and their previous examples. 3. They perform airbrush design instead of foundain cakes. When I picked up my cake, it looked pretty. Not super-dooper perfect, but it looked good. However, what's more important - the look or the taste? So here you go: the taste was amazing! They did everything exactly as I asked. The cake was not dry at all (as most of the foundain cakes), it was very well moistured, with an amazing combination of pineapple, pecan and French cream! Tip: order 1 day before the event, don't run for the freshness. The next day taste was twice as better as the first. People's bakery, I'm coming back for more! read more

It is my first time making a review on anything I buy or eat. And I must say that the cake I ordered for my son's first birthday party was excellent.

I will definitely order from there for my next event. read more

01/10/21 Not a good experience. Ordered in store and paid $3 for a large Rum Baba sale person Isabella put in the pastry box instead a piece of Tiramisu. Tiramisy price is ($2.25) according to their website. Be careful when you are visiting the bakery. Dishonest sale person. When I called she did not even apologize. read more

Great cakes and cookies got my son his birthday cake it was simple and delicious everyone loved it decent bakery around the way very friendly staff read more

I have only come here for the butter cookies and they are usually pretty good. I get them for myself and family during the holidays. After reading other people's reviews, it seems like we should stay away from ordering cakes and pies. It also seems like this used to be an Italian-owned bakery, but they have changed owners within the past few years. read more

I ordered from them through Grubhub and it took extremely long to arrive however due to COVID that may be why. I got pignoli cookies and they tasted sour like they were old and sitting out for a while. I had someone taste them to see if I was wrong and they agreed that they tasted sour and were very mushy. read more

Bought Danish that tasted stale. The following weekend I asked if the Danish were fresh. The employee told me that they were from the previous day. The same with the tray of buns. The fresh Danish were kept in the back. The bakery did not post that it was selling day-old baked goods. Moreover, the bakery was charging full price for the day-old goods. read more

Fairly disappointed with their cakes now. I've been buying their pastries for over 5 years and they had amazing baked goods until recently I realized that the fruit tarts are soggy and their red velvet (bottom layer) was also soggy! The butter cream tastes awesome too. What happened? I will buy their cheesecake one more time before deciding to stop going there. The baked bread is still good so I'll go there for that... read more

Picked up a birthday cake from here last week. Everyone raved about it. It was super fresh and tasted great. I would definitely recommend this bakery. read more

rainbow cookies are awesome strawberry shortcake: many large strawberries and strawberry jam as the filling chocolate strawberry cake: chocolate mousse inside as filling, the chocolate layer cake with large chocolate covered strawberries The butter cookies are good, the jam is fresh inside, not like many places that are stale They also have pizza dough so you can make up a homemade pizza quickly Finally great bread. Easter time we get the 'Easter bread' : sweet bread with eggs, shaped into Easter shapes Anytime go to guest house, this is my place to go. read more

Excellent bakery!! I highly recommend them!! Delicious cookies, pastries, cakes, etc. And, their service is great!!

New owners..Mexicans...pastries are terrible, cheesecake too sweet no taste of cheese and old, strawberry shortcake have no idea what that was it sure wasn't strawberries or cake.. I went based on the reviews what a mistake wasted $20 on crap...want a great bakery go to Elegante on Avenue U..keep away from peoples bakery read more

Ordered the strawberry cheesecake for a birthday and it did not disappoint! Very creamy and the strawberries were fresh. The prices are reasonable as well. I plan to order from here again. read more

Delicious apple pie, Italian cookies, rainbow cookies etc. friendly service. Reasonable prices. Would def recommend.

Get the cannolis! Fresh crust and filled with rich cream and some cookie bits. Need I say more? They're quick with custom orders like cakes too. Every time I pass by this place on my way home from school, I'm always tempted to stop by! read more

Just got a birthday cake today. Nice looking shop but what killed all the goodness was that my name was misspelled with a provocative word "Happy Birthday Ti**y" I don't know who wrote it but he or she should get fired. I specifically told the cashier how it should be spelled. I over heard the cashier saying the name was not correct with the baker but I still received the cake with the word "Ti**y", "What the hell?". A few minutes after the cashier left her shift another girl came out to package it and she didn't even bother to show me what was written on the cake before it was being boxed. The cake was suppose to be ready in 15min but actually took about 30min total. I'm not happy, it ruined my day :( My $20.00 for the cake wasn't worth the time. Avoid this place if you need your name spelled right on a birthday cake. read more

Tried their cheesecake from a friend's couple anniversary. The cheesecake was made perfectly. It was decadent, light and not extremely sweet. It was just how a cheesecake's suppose to taste like. I don't know how much the cheesecake cost but I will be back here again buying another slice soon. read more

I can't believe that they just rather refund me , and I got no birthday cake for my daughter, because I went back to store and complain the Caje was hirruvje made, the pic of cocomelon was like a piece paper on the top of surface, the font, the design is like the grave stone. No more for me to go to this bakery read more

I've gotten the pecan pie here and it's great. It's not too sweet and has a lot of pecan. They also add chocolate chips in there which may not be traditional, but it's makes the pie. They also sell other pastries which I have yet to try. I just couldn't get over the pecan pie! read more

I gotta say this place has has some of the best customer service along with their amazing variety of sweets to choose from! I love their tiramisu and cheesecake, and for the price that it's at I could go back again and again without having to worry about sacrificing quality for cost or vice versa! I get wonderful quality for such a reasonable price, couldn't ask for more, but it doesn't end there as I said before. They have such friendly customer service, when I had questions about different items they had for sale, they didn't hesitate to answer nor did they show anything but positivity when interacting with me or any other customers (even if they were a tad bit impatient).. I would recommend to anyone who's willing to try something sweet to come to People's Bakery!! read more

I am a HUGE cannoli fan so when I went into this small bakery after ditching Audrey's, I was surprised to see a huge collection of pastries including cannolis. I usually only go here for their cannoli, which is pretty decent. There are some days when it's too sweet, which is okay. I tried something new and got their Napolean, which was pretty good. read more

I come here for their tiramisu and OMG it is a piece of heaven in your mouth! So moist and full of flavor! They have a variety of cakes, cookies and sweets. Def recommend! read more

It's a hit or miss... I ordered many mini cakes.. Tiramisu was horrible, it turned & you can even smell it. Many items were becoming outdated but they still sell it.. It's pretty gross & disappointing... But their rainbow cookies are good.. Enjoy.. read more

The operators of this bakery don't know the difference between an chicken pot pie and a blueberry pie.... awful

Please do yourself a favor and do not order your child's birthday cake from here! I placed an order for a Thomas the train cake for my son's birthday party at school. One hour before I was supposed to pick up the cake, they called me and said they ordered the wrong cake decoration! I'm sorry but Mickey Mouse is not the same as Thomas the train! My son had specifically requested this cake and I didn't want to disappoint him. Yes it kinda did work out in the end because they were able to use the Thomas train from their display cake but mind you, they did not apologize or compensated me for the trouble they caused. The train had glue all over the bottom too! I am definitely not coming back here ever again! read more

On Tuesday 11/07/17 I walked into this bakery to order my wife her favorite type of cake "Chocolate Mousse" for her birthday the next day. I was told the cake woukd be done tomorrow and I would pick -up the cake at 4:30 pm. Next day Wednesday the 8th I was in the area a little earlier than expected so i called and asked of i could pick up the cake an hour earlier. I was told no, Because the "Boss" who is apparently the baker also was not in. So i guess my cake was being prepared with less then an hour to pick-up. But thats ok, The deal was 4:30 pick up thats what it will have to be. Got to the bakery clerk bagged my cake and out the door i went on my way home 4 miles away. Once i get home, I put the bag with the cake inside on the counter and prepare to put it in the refrigerator to have with freinds and family to celebrate her birthday. As i am putting my hands inside the bag to lift the cake out, I feel wetness inside the bag, I think nothing of it. Once I get my hands on the bottom of the cakebox i lift it out of the bag and i get liquid streaming down my arm coming out of the box. I'm like "WTF? Why of this wet??? I proceed to open the box to look at the cake because now there is water pouring out of the box, Something gotta be wrong. Open the box, First thing i noticed which should have said "Happy 52nd Birthday" actually said "Happy 32nd Birthday". Ok not gonna make a big deal of that...Simple mistake. Next i get a white cake with pink frosting....Certainly dont look like a chocolate mousse cake to me. Call up the bakery and speak to the clerk and give her my name and told her i was there a little while ago to pick up my cake. I ask her if she can pull out the written up order and read it to me. She tells me "I threw it out" I tell her i was just there so it must be right on top of the can you can go get it. She lies again and says that that garbage was thrown outside. I ask to speak to a manager and was told "He's not here right now" another lie. I tell her what i have in this box is NOT what i ordered or paid for and i would like to speak to the manager and she how this will get rectifed. I was told she woukd have the manager call me and needless to say i never got a returned call so i had my guest call from his phone so they wouldnt recognize my number and avoid the call. This person who calls himself the manager insisted what we got is a chocolate mousse cake. Apparently he thinks chocolate mousse and chocolate sponge cake is the same. So, we excepted the fact that we are going to just accept the cake we have. After dinner, cut the cake, and none of my 6 guests could swallow this soaking wet, soggy, disgusting slop. I was totally embarrassed and would have been much better off going down to the nearest grocery store and getting an Entenmenn's cake. YOU HAD ONE JOB PEOPLES BAKERY! ONE JOB! AND THATS BAKING A DECENT CAKE AND YOU FAILED MISERABLELY! read more
