Martha's is a staple bakery in Queens, now expanded into other boroughs, and they've done…read moreincredibly well over the years maintaining quality and consistency in their desserts. There's usually a line of some length during peak hours and especially around the holidays. You can tell by the sheer volume of baked goods and cakes available in their window displays that they sell a lot daily. This location is on the main drag of the little downtown section of Forest Hills, the baked goods in the front window display connect to a tall and long glass counter along the left side of the store that extends almost to the back. At the back middle and along the right side of the wall there's seating for about two dozen people at small cafe tables. They carry an assortment of traditional cakes (full and sliced), pies, cookies, pastries, cheesecakes, cupcakes, ice cream and coffee/tea drinks. A wide variety of flavors in each, so you're bound to find something sweet to satisfy most here. They are a classic bakery so from what I can tell, they don't carry items that are gluten, dairy or nut free. I've purchased their apple pie, fruit tart, berry napoleon, red velvet and chocolate fudge cakes from this or other locations in the past and they're all solid choices for desserts to share with a larger group, though I find a lot of their cake options to be on the richer side. My most recent encounter with their cakes came in the form of a slice of their seven layer cake $9.95 which is thin layers of yellow cake alternating with chocolate cream mmm pretty tasty, and their caramel cake $9.95 which had a layer of chocolate cake in the middle, sandwiched by caramel cream and white cake on either side. The latter had a pronounced caramel flavor that was enjoyable though a bit too much cream for me. My preference would be for their chocolate cakes over other cake flavors here. Their apple pie is one of my favorite apple pies anywhere tho!

Often, food outshines any other element during a trip to a cafe or restaurant. When I think back to…read moreour must recent visit here though, I'm reminded again and again how pleasant the staff were. It took us a while to decide on what to buy partly because we were buying also for our friends. Naturally, we were asked relatedly by at least the different staff if we needed help or if we were ready to order. Each time, they seemed genuinely want to help, and made us feel welcome with their smiles and gentle demeanor. For myself, the pistachio muffin was totally satisfying and I confirm they did not slump on the nuts. The crunchy eclair was a BIG hit with our friends, and the rest is kind of a blur but I know we enjoyed everything we tried. We'd go back without hesitation. I hope they keep up the great work.

Definitely one of the best French Bakery in Queens area or even in NYC!! Everything was good!…read more Location: It is located around the corner of 39th avenue and bell boulevard. The restaurant/bakery is big with lot of seating. Great display of cakes, pastries and breads. Street parking is available. Service: the nicest people. Food: all of their cakes, pastries and breads aew amazing. But two of my favorites are: DUKE: definitely a must! Its chocolate cake with I believe a cookie crust inside. It comes in cubes so definitely easier to share. CRUNCHY: this is the very must!! It's chocolate mouse inside with layers of other chocolates. Plus with nuts on it. It's like a ferrero but bigger! Price rating: 7/10. It was not expensive a good cake. I always buy cake here for special occasions or even if I am craving cakes. Visit this, its worth it!

Somedays is the perfect spot for a quick, casual pick-me-up. Located in the bay terrace shopping…read morecenter, it offers a cozy vibe with just enough space to sit and enjoy your treat. It's relaxed and easy-going, ideal for grabbing a coffee while you're out and about. Food: Their baked goods are the real star here--freshly baked onsite with a professional touch. The flavors are unique, making it a fun stop for something different. While the selection is on the smaller side, each item seems thoughtfully crafted. A few more savory options would be a welcome addition, though! Service: The service is quick and efficient. There's usually just one person behind the counter, but they handle things smoothly and get your order ready in no time. No long waits, which is great for a quick bite. Suggestions: A couple of high chairs would be a nice touch for families with little ones! Also, a few more savory items on the menu would be fantastic to round out the offerings. Overall: Overall, Somedays is a solid go-to for a quick coffee and pastry. It's a pleasant, no-fuss spot with delicious treats, and I'm excited to see what they add next. A great addition to the local scene!

I was surprised at the weight of the pastry. it was FILLED with the tahini paste. It was a little too sweet for me, but i enjoyed the croissant (super flaky). the pricing is on the higher end of pastries, but the assortment is done well and as described. for reference, a plain croissant there is $5 (same $ as radio bakery) whereas one from Costco is $1. for me, this was a one time try, but it was good to try the excitement for me post hype.

Deciding on what to purchase was a challenge at Somedays since all of their baked goods were so…read morewinsome! They are known for their croissants, if that interests you. I opted for a chocolate theme because why not? Pain Au Chocolate ($6.95): The pain au chocolate was a stunner. With its stripes, it was undoubtedly the most attractive pain au chocolate/chocolat I've ever eaten, and luckily it was quite tasty too! Chocolate Chunk Cookie ($4.95): This cookie features copious amounts of dark and milk chocolate and offers a delightful chewy texture, with a few grains of salt on top. I prefer all dark chocolate but that's just me. Still recommended! Somedays is small and doesn't have any indoor seating, but there are some tables and chairs outside. Bummer since it was a little too chilly for me but a hardier customer was taking advantage. Service was chipper and patient. No cash discount.

However, the staff were also super warm and accommodating, and the quality of the items we got (gluten free vanilla and chocolate cupcakes) was great. The actual cake bases of both types were moist and flavorful. I could've gone with a little less frosting and more cake, but it made for a very aesthetically pleasing topping with the vibrant colors, sprinkles, and glitter. I kept getting strong hints of rose flavor from the pink frosting on the chocolate cupcakes so I'm not sure if they infused it with that. Overall, a great little spot, and really a savior for procrastinators looking for sweet goodies to take to a gathering when other last-minute ideas fall through!

Best in the neighborhood, I will die on this hill. This bakery is on the smaller side and gets busy especially around holidays like Easter and Christmas. It's a casual atmosphere, some folks do sit here and have coffee and a pastry especially when the weather is nice out. Prices are a little high but you get what you pay for. They have a variety of cookies, breads and special pastries for certain seasons like struffoli during Easter. If you're looking for a birthday cake that's really going to knock it out of the park, I would come here and trust these people with it.
