Emerald Bakery

Their prices are pretty fair. I’m a regular and come about once a week. I would give this place five stars, but their desserts are lacking. I have tried different cakes, cookies, pies, and other pastries on different visits. Their cakes are fairly good, but their cookies are dry and have little flavor. Their brownies are awful. The brownies are essentially a dry dense flavorless cake smeared with chocolate frosting. The remained of their pastries such as their cannolis and croissants are average.
On the upside, their baked bread items and stuffed breads are phenomenal. Most importantly, the one item that keeps me coming back every week are their breakfast sandwiches. For just under $ 3, they offer bacon, egg, and cheese or sausage on any of their bread items. The combination of the buttered fresh bread, fresh fried eggs (cooked perfect consistency for a breakfast sandwich), crispy peppered bacon, and gooey cheddar cheese, make these one of the best breakfast sandwiches I have ever had. They are so good, I have to come back once a week to get them.

I went there today to get a couple pastries and when the woman took out one of the pastries I wanted (there were only 2 left) the other one fell on the ground. She put it on the counter and I went to pay but their credit card machine was down so I went to Adams to get cash. When I came back to get my pastries the almond pastry that fell on the ground was back in the display. She apologized and took it back out… Made me think what else do they do

I purchased my wedding cake through them, and mostly worked with Mary, one of the owners, on creating our cake. I had a bunch of pictures that she helped me combine into one, the cake came out beautiful! And she delivered it right to my venue the day of our wedding, which was nice to have one less thing to worry about that day.
The only criticism I would have would be that is was difficult to get a hold of her. I lived an hour away from the bakery, so it wasn’t easy for me just to walk in, therefore I had to rely a lot on email (for the pictures) and phone calls.
Overall though I was pleased with my experience and will be calling them to order my cake topper (which they remake for you) since our one year anniversary is coming up!

Best bakery in the world. All the pastries and breads are amazing. The owners are wonderful people and the staff is great. They even have fresh bacon egg and cheeses now! The best. I recommend it!

The best bacon egg and cheese sandwich you can find. Order it on an onion roll. You won’t be disappointed.
Excellent!!!

Bacon, egg and cheese delicious and staff very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely return.

Love this bakery! I always get a mini éclair which is always fresh and has the best filling and chocolate! Great cannolis too. I have also tried the Boston cream pie and it is amazing!

Baked goods are good but it’s the bacon egg and cheeses that keep me coming back. Staff are friendly and they’ve been in this plaza for over 15 years so they’re doing something right.

I just got my soda bread for St Patty’s here today, not only is it fresh but it is handmade from scratch (and I mean real scratch) they make their own dough. It is the best in the state, I have also gotten pastry and many other things here, they have the best food I have traveled more than a half an hour past 50 bakeries just to get there food. Also every time I go I am treated very well and the owners are almost always on site and come out and thank me for my business. So to close I will tell you that if you are looking for a good bakery you need to go here FAST they are nothing short of amazing!

In a day and age where cupcakes are en vogue, this place can’t make a decent one to save their life. Totally dried out, and loaded with buttercream frosting. The kids who work here can’t be bothered to help out an indecisive shopper, either.

Worst bakery ever! If I could give it negative stars, I would! It sells nothing but stale cakes and pastries! Their breads are delicious but I’ve even recieved soda breads that were moldy on the bottom which obviously means they just sit there for days untouched.
One time months ago, my friend ordered a cake from them. The girl behind the counter had to apologize because the owners weren’t even there yet to make the cake. The OWNERS?! They were nearly three hours late! I can’t believe the owners couldn’t even show up on time to make a little cake and it just shows how little care they put into this place. A few other friends and family members went there recently and recieved cakes and pastries that were stale again. My father recieved danish that were dry and hardly had anything in them. I decided it was time other people know about this so that no one else has to deal with this awful place. Very bad business. Go somewhere WORTH your time.

My boyfriend went here yesterday to get me some pastries as a surprise. It was only his second time there and he wasn’t sure what to get me. Apparently the girl behind the counter was extremely rude and not helpful for someone who couldn’t decide what to get. This was very irritating for me to hear considering there are many great bakeries in the area. They really cannot afford to have a rude staff when their pastries are mediocre and stale anyway

Yesterday was the last time I buy a cake from Emerald Bakery. I wish I could support this guy, but he took me for $ 30 on a dried-​out, «display purposes only» excuse for a cake. Someone’s birthday does not deserve last week’s cake. I believe strongly in supporting local businesses, and resisted writing this, but Emerald Bakery is a repeat offender in the stale cake category.

First, a disclosure: I love cream puffs! I order them every time i see them. But i have never ever tried anything even close to the puffs they make in this bakery! It is unbelievable!!! I also tried their cream horns — soooo good!!! Highly recommend!
