I'm actually surprised of all the negative reviews i see here....this place has an onsite bakery so the bread is ALWAYS fresh....the service is great! Authentic Mexican food and MORE! My family and I are always satisfied with our order. Try the steak Torta sandwich for the win! I ask for mine without picante (not spicy) but some would say that's a crime! lol Anyhoot most dishes are good, just stick to the more authentic menu items, because let's be real - ordering tenders and fries in a Mexican joint is just pointless. read more

This bakery is just ok. Sometimes their cake slices are just too cold, or have an odd taste to it. The bread is alright too. Twenty years ago, another bakery used to be at the exact same spot. I fondly remember their bread pudding, and baked breads. There was an older man at the counter too. read more

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. My GO TO easy breakfast, lunch, takeout and delivery spot for years. I've ordered delivery and eaten at the counter and the quality and speed of service is always the same. This place has been around forever and is always packed in the morning !!! Love it They make traditional LATIN food, tacos, tostadas, salads, camarones y todo in a casual manner. Sandwhiches handhelds and small plates- but theyre also an actual BAKERY!!! You can get custom cakes here, traditonal latin pastries like guayaba y queso Conchas and those sugar cookies for dipping. They have alot of cakes, pies cookies and customized cupcakes to choose from. They have a smoothie and pressed Juice window as well My favorite go to items here are: Chicken tacos with EVERYTHING ON IT French Toast (comes w powdered sugar and fruit compote) Grilled Chicken Sandwich w extra mayo Tres Leches Cake Guava y Queso Pastry read more

I work around the area at times and this is my go to breakfast place! The wait can be a little long with the morning rush so call ahead for pick up if you're in a hurry. The staff is quick and efficient all the time. My go to is the sausage, egg and cheese on a roll. SO GOOD! And for the price (I think it was $6) it's HUGE! You get a bang for your buck compared to a deli SEC. Everything else on the menu looks delicious as well. But I'm a stickler for the SEC.lol. read more

This bakery has changed and I'm so happy to be coming back. They made a beautiful baby shower cake for me and followed instructions to the T. My last review a few years ago, the cake was horrible but this time around it was amazing and so fresh. I also order green juice, tacos and toasted bread from here. It's all very delicious, I must say they stepped their game up for sure. read more

Cute bakery with a fresh and healthy juice bar inside. I came with a friend for some fresh juice and left with a bag of delicious cookies. The staff are super friendly and everything is reasonably priced. Lots of seating inside too. Definitely recommend! read more

I ordered the Cuban sandwich and a couple of empanadas from Princesa Bakery in the hopes of satiating my hunger. The Cuban sandwich was packed to the brim! This is usually a plus in my book, but this caused the bread to get soggy, which is a big hinderance when eating a sandwich. No one likes soggy bread! The empanadas were passable? Not sure, they seemed a bit empty as they lacked any filling. Overall, an okay place to get something to eat if you are looking for something quick and dirty. read more

Love this place! They variety of fresh food is the best, and lets not forget all the baked goodies. There is room to sit and eat and a natural juice bar. They offer the best breakfasts as well as lunch sandwiches for a reasonable price. Considering how bisy they always are the service is fast and courteous. It's one of the only gems left of old Williamsburg. The ambiance is just that! read more

Great place for quick coffee and breakfast sandwiches. I am glad they're one of the few spots in the area that haven't been gentrified and has kept affordable prices. They're my go-to spot for a bacon egg and cheese any time of the day. read more

This place is great! Best breakfast, lunch, pastries, staff & service in my neighborhood & I love it.

I ordered for pick-up, the store was extremely busy and there's no limit to the # of people in the premise during COVID-19 which is concerning. When I took my first bite, there was something hard and I discovered that I had staples in my food. I was able to get a refund for my food; however, I overheard the cook saying it's impossible. The cashier was very nice and offered to remake the food, but I asked for a refund instead. read more

Princesa's has some of the best Mexican food in all of Brooklyn! The chicken tostadas with fresh avocado, queso fresco, and spicy green sauce are to die for, and don't even get me started on the chicken noodle soup. I get it delivered every time I'm sick (and it works like a charm!) They serve it with a plate of cilantro, lime, and onions, and it's probably some of the most flavorful and delicious soup I've ever had. Last time I went, I also tried a slice of strawberry cake and it was super soft, fluffy and the perfect amount of sweet. If you haven't tried the food from this place yet, you need to! read more

I went in with my son, and we ordered a sandwich and not only was it burnt. It tasted funky. When I went back in to tell them about my issue, they said that they couldn't do anything about it, and they refuse to give me a refund just because. Not to mention when I asked to speak to the manager they were extremely rude to me, making rude remarks in Spanish that I couldn't understand. Overall, the experience was horrible and I will never be eating here again. read more

I'm sorry, I have gone here so many times and it's always a hit or miss. Today was the last straw. Their fries are garbage. Avoid them. Skinny, hard,- and tasteless. No amount of salt or ketchup can save these frozen fries. Gave them 4 chances The burgers are garbage. Soggy, mushy, and wet. Why??? Gave them 2 chances Today I came in for a large coffee (which they normally get wrong but I try to deal) I asked can I please get a large coffee, a little light, COLD milk please instead of hot milk. I hate hot milk in a light coffee. WHY bother ordering a LIGHT coffee if you are still going to get it steaming hot? The lady tells me 'it's going to be a little cold, is that okay?' I answer back 'yes' and explain again. 'Just a little light with cold milk. Thanks.' How the F can you mess this up? I ended up receiving an ice cold coffee. This idiot poured ONE THIRD of coffee into the cup and poured cold milk to fill it up. I even told the lady in Spanish how I wanted it!!! I asked her what kind of coffee is this. She sounded like she was about to give me lip, but offered to replace it. I had to tell her no thanks because pouring a light coffee is just too difficult for them. The first messup is okay. The second one is alright The third one I should have know better By the fourth time you can tell whether a place is good or bad. read more

El Carousel Bakery was closed down and a new bakery and eatery called Princesa Bakery Restaurant has been opened in its place by a new owner. I went to Princesa Bakery Restaurant because I needed an emergency birthday cake and was pleasantly surprised by their willingness to accommodate me and have a large, Disney themed birthday cake ready for me in less than an hour. HOWEVER, I witnessed one of the decorators working on my cake bite off the tip of the cornet he had just made and then hold it in his mouth prior to using it, a totally unsanitary and unsafe practice. There were also new cake boxes strewn on the floor behind the counter, with used empty plastic cups on them. This lack of attention to cleanliness and appropriate food handling procedures mars an otherwise clean looking, well stocked bakery, cafe, and restaurant with a focus on Mexican fare. read more

The establishment may loom a bit outdated but that is not what is important here. This is where the local Spanish community eats. The coffee is freshly brewed...each cup! 1.35 for freshly brewed coffee and boiled milk! Starbucks can't touch this with a 10 foot pole. I enjoy their coffee too but locally...this is the spot. The staff is so hard working too. read more

I came here the week of my daughter's and sons party to order a carnival themed cake. I spent about a half hour talking to Juan in choosing the cake designs. On one cake it had a fondant clown cake which he charged me $95 and the other cake that had two clowns sitting on it was also suppose to have balloons in the back to fill up the cake he charged me $65. The day of the party my father picked up the cakes for me and imagine my shock when I was setting up the cakes that the balloons were missing and the other cake that was suppose to have fondant had the colors painted on. Very disappointed in how I was told one thing and paid for the services and completely got half of what I wanted. The cakes were delicious but very upset at the end results of my cake designs. This makes me debate whether I should order future cakes from here. read more

I come here occasionally for an ice coffee or dessert and I haven't been disappointed. It's customer service isn't top par but who cares if you're grabbing something quick and going about your business. Their sandwich bread is always fresh, warm, and toasty with whatever sandwich you order. Their ice coffee also always tastes fresh and bold. There's plenty of booth seating for medium sized parties but I'd say this is a cafe to stop in and continue with your day. There's lots of menu options for both beverages and food. The surrounding areas is very populated and there's a lot of foot traffic, however wait time isn't too bad. read more

This place serves it purpose and thats about it. It's nothing special, but nothing to avoid either. Mediocre bake goods for a cheap price, enough said. I wouldn't suggest going out of your way to come here, but if you live in the area and want a cheap breakfast (croissants, muffins, danishes, etc. etc.) its convenient and satisfying enough. ... oh, and the empanadas are pretty good and generously stuffed with meat and cheese. read more

Wide jummy menu. Trying Cemita today. I asked for bacon well done to this sandwich and so happy I did. They missed the cilantro. I think the lady told me it was supposed to have it. I gotta say something, about this sandwich: http://youtu.be/-2U0Ivkn2Ds When I walked in this restaurant there was a line of people waiting, good sign meaning that the food is good. I knew I was in for some great tasting experience. So what does a woman who feels empty or missing something gets? The Cemita. It is great with the bacon, add $1.00 for it. The bread is big and thick, no like those other sandwiches that have not enough bread to fill you in, this is a huge roll type of bread. Some nice white sauce, lettuce, and tomatoes with white cheese. For $6.50 is a really good deal, it was sooo big that even though it tasted great, I ended up sharing it with my dog and cat. Then, they also offer natural blend juices, but I chose to try their coffee. I am so spoiled to my own coffee that I don't like almost no other coffee, but hey, good thing that I love to try new things, because the coffee was just RIGHT ! soft taste, real coffee taste, no the woodchip tastes of other place's coffee. When you walk in, there is a breakfast menu on the left wall, prices are really low, so low that you can get breakfast for $5.00 or less, now this is my type of prices :) Then further down in the wall, there is the menu for more heavy, lunch type of meals. I will surely come back to this spot. This place gave me the "God Bless America" type of feeling, mmm..., jummy and affordable. read more

This place was close to the place I was staying so I had breakfast here. The food was hot, delicious, and plentiful. The bread could have been toasted more but it was pretty good for the price. I also ordered a cupcake to try since it looked delicious on display. It was really dry and stale and left a bad feeling in my mouth and really wished I didn't order it. The people in here were really nice. read more

Princesa Bakery - Breakfast with coffee - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Leaving a better review because the place has cleaned itself up. The cheese cake with strawberries on top is pretty awesome. They are really nice about putting writing on the cake and they do not charge extra. They even accommodated my kind of silly request to have writing on top of the strawberry sauce for a birthday by placing a plastic strip on top. They have a lot of inexpensive food items. I like their breakfast sandwiches and Cuban sandwiches. The place is always pretty full and people seem to enjoy it. I agree with 3 1/2 stars but since I was guilty about my 2 star review before, I bumped it up a notch. :) read more

The Bakery part of the name here kept me away for years. I'm no fan of sweets in the general and the muy ducle creations found South of the Border are particularly far afield of my preferred flavor palette. But this year I'm re-dedicating myself to trying some of the hole in the walls and longstanding local eateries with a few blocks of my apartment, so I went inside on a recent Sunday afternoon. I would describe the ordering system as supermarket deli minus the numbered slips of paper that keeps everyone in line. There's a very long glass case and three or four women working behind it, running up and down taking orders as people are able to shout them out. Sweets, cakes and savories are all ordered from the same place. There's a surprisingly deep menu of work-a-day Mexican fare, from tacos to sopes, quesadillas and breakfast foods like huveos rancheros. There's also a selection of American food, or the kind of American selections you can find served in Mexico in a quasi-American style (the confusing by-product of centuries of cultural exchange.) I went with the enchiladas verdes, which came sides of hearty frijoles and bone-dry (that was slightly improved by mixing the salsa verde on top it and in with the beans, but still came up short). The rice appeared to be reheated or scooped from a large, too-old communal bowl, but the enchiladas were nicely flavored and scorching hot. There's a huge turnover here, as families from nearby apartment buildings and houses came in for a snack, dessert or even an entire meal to go. The tables turned over fast, too, in more of counter style than a classic restaurant situation. Clearly there's something about the place that people like, I'm afraid I found it just OK. read more

they actually have really good smoothies, which they call milkshakes. they're milk, ice, a little sugar, and whichever fruit you want. which is pretty awesome to find in the hood. it's like our own little mexican jamba juice. and you get to support local business! i once ordered delivery from here and it was good, and fast, and brought by a kind of cute boy. when all the other mexican places were too busy or refused to deliver $12 worth of stuff, they did us well. pretty basic but filling mexican food. on par with all the other spots around here. the baked goods don't look so hot, but i can't say from personal experience. read more

Try the milkshakes! I had a good experience here. Ordered a burrito and it was made fresh for me at the grill behind the counter. Added a papaya milkshake and called it a solid lunch. The shake was delicious, but the burrito while large was only mediocre. While eating I did get to see a number of customers pick up their custom cakes. All appeared to be nice quality, large, and beautiful. read more

one of my favorite places in the neighborhood. their pastries and desserts are so cheap and so delicious. I have taken a box full of treats to dinner parties and they have always been a hit! (hipster approved) but additionally, the food is really good and cheap so my boyfriend and I often get dinner to go or even dine-in on the weekends for a no frills breakfast that feels like home. They had one of the first juice bars in the neighborhood before juicing was cool. love the staff and they even have some over the top custom cakes which I've never ordered but seem to be popular!! read more
