I absolutely love this place! I gave it 5 stars because of the fantastic coffee, excellent service, and the captivating art adorning both walls. There was this lovely short girl with the most beautiful smile and the kindest voice at the register one day – truly amazing! I visit from time to time to get my coffee fix, and they never fail to impress.

Probably one of the best wedding cake suppliers in town. I don't recommend suppliers that much, but this one is an exception. I really love them!

What I love about their wedding cakes is that they really do try to customize them based on the preference of their clients. It is definitely amazing how they do that.

i.e., A local favorite, or highly I work and live in Manhattan New York City, Looking forward to a bachelorette party for my sister, in Las Vegas Nevada with an adult x-rated cake. We had a bachelorette exotic party in Las Vegas two weeks ago during the holiday season. I was not sure an cake could be found, but to my surprise, the bakery in Las Vegas came through with flying colors. The cake was immense, tasted first-rate, and looked superior to the photo on the web site. I would highly recommend this site for all exotic cakes, anywhere in the USA. One more thing heads up to my sales person recommended because

I absolutely love the cannoli's here, but for the price they cost I can only get em once a week. Oh well. What a shame. They're positively delicious, though!

There's a reason Ferrara's has been aronud for so long. The food is traditional and very delicious. That being said, the place has become somewhat of a tourist trap (maybe they were featured on the food network or something?), so beware of the lines. Once you're eating that food, though, any bad thoughts typically go away in a wave of tastiness.

Ferrara. Caruso thought the coffee marvelous but especially loved the cookies and cakes. and prosper. After World War I, At the beginning of the 1929 Depression, Peter married the daughter of Enrico Scoppa. He was to spend the rest of his life at Ferrara's, transforming a charming neighborhood cafe into a world famous shrine of delicious tastes. Times were tough and in order to make sure there was very little waste, they began to bake two, three and sometimes four times a day, small batches of cookies and cakes. These difficult circumstances were a blessing in disguise Because of the frequency with which they baked, Ferrara acquired a great reputation for freshness. This reputation and the fact that the Lepore's were devoted to their business almost as much as to each other, enabled Café Ferrara to grow and prosper.Today, Ferrara is still a family owned business operated by the fifth generation. And that's perhaps the most wonderful thing about Ferrara. Since its beginning in 1892, the spirit has changed very little.We deliver in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and The Bronx seven days a week between 9:00 AM and 1:00PM.
