Polito Bakery

Great staff. Great service. Great pastries. I come here every year on St Joseph's Day to pick up the traditional Zeppole di San Giuseppe.

I have been coming to this bakery for over two decades. While the place has changed, the quality of the bread and pastries have been constant. They have a good selection and at great prices. The staff tends to be very welcoming and helpful along with professional and the atmosphere is very intimate even with you just buying your goods and leaving. I highly recommend visiting here for your bakery needs. Dietary restrictions: You can inquire about any dietary restrictions you have and they do have some options available depending on your unique needs. Parking: They have a small parking lot available in the front and there is ample parking behind the store as well.

My mother has been going to this bakery for many years. Her favorites are the saviardi cookies, apple pie, and of course the cannoli! Through the years the owner and the lovely people working there have always been very friendly and courteous.

As I write this my hands are still trembling from the emotional upset of being assaulted by the owner for returning a cake I recently purchased from Polito Bakery. I was physically attacked and spit at by the owner as I was run out of the store fleeing for my safety as he cursed me out threatening to kill me!I am completely serious! I even went to the 3rd Precinct Police Station just a couple of blocks away to report the incident. The owner is definitely unhinged and according to the police committed a crime by spitting at me and threatening violence. And to think all because I criticized a carrot cake for being too dry! Needless to say any store owner that would behave so egregiously, even criminally, deserves to be avoided at all costs. The joke is I didn't even ask for a full refund, I just asked for some exchange-- the cake was inedible and cost $28, nobody at the party liked it and most of what was cut was tossed into the trash. I asked for $20 worth of something else despite my inconvenience and the impact on the party, figuring he could keep $8 to cover his ingredients but this guy does not know how to treat customers! Clearly, I will NEVER patronize his bakery again and suggest that you don't either! Even if you're not met with violence the baking is just not good.

I was in here for the first time today and had a pleasant young lady help me and I enjoyed their delicious butter cookies and coffee.

always grab the butter cookies and almond biscotti! the best on long island.

Polito has some of the best Italian bread on Long Island, definitely recommend

The pastries were average, the prices were higher than they should be. Honestly, if you put their pastries next to the ones you can get at King Kullen, I don't think anyone could tell the difference. The prices at KK are much better and service at KK is actually better too.
