The breads and cakes are excellent and fresh. I bought the strawberry shortcake and it was delicious.

Great products and service is always top notch. Donuts are exceptional. Worth the trip.

Just bought a lobster tail & mini cannolis . All of it was amazingly delicious. The cream tastes fresh not super sweet like from other places I've bought from. The only downside was the lobster tail was only 1/4th filled. read more

Best jelly Donuts in the world ! Just the right amount of jelly soft and a decent size. Even though I think they used to be bigger.

Incredible bakery stop by if you are traveling through to treat the ladies of your house for a delicious dessert.

Overall general bakery- nothing really exciting here but they do have everything. Wish the items had more flavor and tasted like store bought donuts and pasties. read more

Have been a few times previous. Love that the donuts are fresh with plain icing. I try 1 new item each visit. This time it was a pumpkin spice cheesecake even though I am not a fan of the flavor in general, it was pretty decent. read more

I was nearby when my friend mentioned that this bakery had cannoli cheesecake. I literally called to confirm and made sure they had it available right there and then. Thankfully they did! We drove over and picked one up, for a very reasonable price. We ended up having a couple slices while playing cards that night and it was Delightful! read more

Man oh man Stanley's you still rock. Thanks to a former coworker turned friend reminded me of Stanley's when I needed to bring something to work in a pinch on this beautiful yet cold Monday morning. Thankfully Stanley's was open too today because of Thanksgiving on Thursday otherwise I would've had a little snafu. Jelly donuts still rock and my new coworkers love em. Therefore 5 stars. You bet your bottom dollar I'll be back for more goodies for the coworkers when the opportunity presents itself. I also would like to note I was in and out within 5 minutes and back on the road to work this morning. Talk about speedy and pleasant service! read more

I love Stanley's! I've been coming here since I was a child and I stand by the fact that they have the best jelly donuts on the island. Nope don't argue with me I know I'm right. Coated with cinnamon sugar and always made fresh they literally melt in your mouth. I recently tried an egg sandwich from them and honestly it was terrible but I'm gonna stuck with cakes and donuts! Highly recommend this local spot, it's very old fashioned with the twine wrapping the boxes up and I've always had a helpful lovely experience. read more

Excellent Bakery been going here 50 years! Jelly Doughnuts are fantastic! They make a very good egg sandwich also. Specialty cakes are always delicious Definitely recommend read more

I've heard great things about Stanley's since I moved into the area. Multiple people have recommended us to try not only their baked goods, but their breakfast sandwiches. It's a nice clean store, plenty of parking out front. The bakery options seem endless. Cakes, cookies, pastries & donuts, you name it they have it. There's always multiple people working, so the lines move fast. Last week we bought a crumb cake to bring over to someone's house for brunch. It was delicious and I think there was only one piece left by the time everyone was leaving. This morning I stopped there for breakfast. I tried the "Boomer", which is their version of a hungry man. It has 3 eggs, bacon, sausage and ham. They put it on a piece of semolina Italian bread which really sets this apart! It was so good, and it was the perfect size. Most times these come on a hero which turns out to be more food than needed, but having it on a cut piece of Italian bread was perfect. The pricing is very fair, I believe the crumb cake was about $12, and the breakfast sandwich was about $8. read more

Bought three types of muffins. They all basically tasted the same--tasteless and WAY too much sugar. The bakery needs to move into current recipes with awareness of healthy baked goods...Lots of flavor from the ingredients of the type of muffin and less sugar enhancement. read more

When inquiring about seasonal Easter pies, like grain pies , I was belittled and told " we are a German bakery" . However you make irish soda bread and canoli's! Been going there for years. That person had a superior attitude that implied I'm German and superior to the likes of you and your inquiry. The shame of it is you are the best bakery I've found, but I don't need the attitude. And, by the way, my last name is Zimmermann. It doesn't get more German than that. As a mature woman she should have better people skills. Your younger employees are great. . read more

he staff is friendly. Nice inside. Haven't had anything I don't like. Key Lime pie was good. So we're the jelly donuts and the custard donuts. Try the bread too. Check this place out. Sorry no pictures. read more

the food wasn't the best, especially the quality of the food too. for the price you pay isn't worth the dessert you get. Pretty expensive for local bakery like that. The service was okay, they were pretty robotic with no expressions physically or vocally. But the ambiance was pretty and small compared to others. read more

Stopped by Stanley's, my local go to bakery this morning to pick up a few of their scrumptious croissants to take to the beach but unfortunately they were sold out, so sad . I opted for their cranberry nut muffins. As usual they were so fresh ,moist and buttery , filled with plenty of cranberries and nuts with a yummy crumb topping . By the way they make the best carrot cakes , and if you love almond horns this is the place for you ! You really can't go wrong with any of their goodies , everything is fresh Returned to my local bakery to pick up a few almond horns , my husband's favorite! They make the best almond horns , sweet , chewy with lots of almond flavor , fantastic! We also enjoyed a delicious linzer tart and chocolate raspberry filled cookies , both extraordinary huge and yummy!Everything is also fresh and delicious ! read more

Irish soda bread was AMAZING. glaze added nice touch. Slightly disappointed in grain Pie for Easter it was little dry but would def go back

Awesome hometown bakery. Went for the first time the other day and saw how many loyal customers frequent this spot every weekend. As I waited for my turn in line, I was able to peruse what seemed like the endless options of sweets and freshly baked breads. The girls behind the counter were working quickly and efficiently. They knew some regulars on a first name basis and made sure to ask how they've been, always appreciate that kind of conversation. I walked in for Irish soda bread, left with two (each freshly iced) a couple of jelly and Boston cream doughnuts, rye bread, rainbow cookies - the best I've had in a long time and some cinnamon raisin bread. All for a reasonable price. Can't wait to go back and become a regular myself! read more

I always enjoyed Stanley's bakery and it has been my favorite bakery for years until they changed the ownership. I have purchased cakes and pies that were not fresh. I did call until the bakery, and they did offer me a gift card. The most disappointing aspect of his bakery is that they do not acknowledge Hanukkah. When they decorate for the holidays, it is only decorated for Christmas. In the past until the new owners came, they always had a Hanukkah menorah up. Recently, I went in during the week of Hanukkah and asked if they had any Hanukkah desserts, which they did not. Then I asked if they had any Babka cake or rugelach which most bakeries would have anyway even during a non-holiday season and they did not . After frequenting this bakery for years, I will no longer go there. By the way, I went over to Stop & Shop and bought the rugelach there and they were very delicious.! read more

Grew up having Stanley's rolls and buns every Sunday after mass. Now I live in another state. Visited recently and Stanley's won't disappoint! I had a large order so I calling ahead and paid. Love all items, but my favorites are chocolate eclairs, jelly donuts and crumb buns. read more

Egg sandwich was awful! It was a bit larger than a half a dollar with burned sausage. Not like the old Stanley's. Very disappointed

Delicious fresh custard donut and cannoli were both excellent Brought home a peach pie which was very very good None of the items were crazy sweet Peaches were canned but pie tasted great. Crust was excellent read more

Should be called Stale-y's. Went in for a birthday cake for mom last week. I explained to the girl helping me that my son has a nut allergy and her first recommendation after telling me it's not a nut- free bakery was a maple walnut cake! I chose vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream ( her description ). The cake had zero vanilla flavor, just sweet and stale. There was white chocolate poured over the top for appearance I guess. The roses on top looked great but tasted like I had bitten into an aspirin. Disappointing, especially for $22. This is what drives people to BJs and Costco for bakery needs. read more

This is everyone's favorite local bakery. I've been coming here after church for over 50 years. Always at least 15 customers in the store and at least 12 local teenage girls behind the counter to help. I love their jelly donuts and caraway bread sticks. My daughter favors the cannolis and rainbow sprinkle cookies. Cakes and breads are all wonderful. You will leave with more than you intended, but the prices are extremely reasonable. I once went to a competitor for fancy cupcakes and they were double the price. When I asked why they said it was because they were a " boutique " bakery. I don't know what that means but I'll stick with Stanley's. read more

This used to be the best bakery for bums rolls and muffins. They have eliminated many great items. The yogurt muffins are gone the horn shaped Kiser rolls poppyseed buns The Kiser rolls are bland and doughy. The service is excellent. Most of the buns are still good. read more

The jelly filled sandwich cookies that are dipped in chocolate and sprinkles cost $16.95 a pound and to find most of them fell apart because they have a dock of jelly and almost no chocolate on them. Just the tip has chocolate is pretty disappointing. I was pretty surprised. These before a birthday party, and it was a little embarrassing, that they all fell apart, because there was no jelly . read more

Stanley's represents and endangered species: the European-style neighborhood bakeries that were abundant throughout NY neighborhoods in the last half of the 20th century. Fresh rye bread, sliced on request; eggy onion roll studded with poppy seeds; butter ruggelach made with cream cheese were all excellent. I'll be back to try the eclair, almond horn, rainbow cookie, and other classic favorites. read more

Stanley's was my latest stop in my hunt for a great jelly donut less than 100 miles from my home in Garden City, NY. I tried both powdered and cinnamon. Both were very good and unlike many jelly donuts I've had these actually had a good amount of jelly inside. What keeps these from great is something that I notice at many bakeries - the quality of the jelly is just ok. I feel like if I took these donuts without the jelly and stuffed them with some simple smuckers raspberry jelly they would be fantastic. read more

Stanley's bakery is one of the best on Long Island and their Irish soda bread is the best I ever had anywhere. I usually get it "sliced and iced"....it is absolutely awesome! read more

A friend surprised me with donuts from here and yum! they good. Super fresh, perfect size. The white icing ? Or glazed was sooo good. Definitely one of my favorites. My mom tried the jelly donut and she said it was one of the best she's had. Definitely will be in to try out some other things ! read more

Ordered a fresh cake to be made and picked up on a Sunday for a Monday birthday party. Little brunette girl behind the counter tried to double charge me. She insisted they had no record of my payment. Thank God I had the receipt in my back pocket. She asked me if I wanted anything else. I said yes, and she walked away. I was going to order a dozen breakfast treats. Thought that was peculiar. Too bad Francesco's closed their South shop on Broadway. They are the best!! Stanley's ... only in an emergency from now on. read more

Growing up, I couldn't wait for Sunday mornings when my grandpa would bring me a jelly doughnut from Stanley's. Now he no longer lives in East Islip, he's much older and spends half his year in FL! (boooo!) Good thing is about being a grown up, I can now drive myself to Stanley's anytime I want. On the rare occasion that I go, I call ahead to make sure there's a jelly there for me-they sell out everyday! Jelly doughnuts are just the beginning of the great sweets they have there which include cookies, cakes, breads & pastries. The employees are always friendly and ready to help you. The place from outside in unremarkable, and the bakery "outdated" but seriously it's one of the greatest, old-school bakeries I have experienced. You can't go wrong at Stanley's! read more
