Roberto’s Bakery

I went to Roberto’s this morning to get my dozen donuts, which I’ve gotten from this place several times before (about once a month). Let me be clear: I come here because of location, close to me, and donuts are very good (can’t vouch for anything else though). Before I come in, I always wonder if they’ll get someone new in that will smile… NO ONE SMILES HERE EVER! I remember the first time I came in… it was like another reviewer stated: «it’s like the soup nazi»… no matter which woman is working the counter (I’ve had the bitchy young one and the bitchy slightly older one with spiked hair) they are like soup nazis! I thought maybe they didn’t like asian people (I’m asian), but no, I’ve waited in line and this is the way they treat all people.
Well, this morning I had enough… in the past, their donuts were good enough (and location was convenient) to keep me coming back, despite their lack of courtesy and genuinely bitcy disposition. I’m waiting for them to refill the glass displays with donuts as they only had a few options available at that moment… I didn’t say anything, was staying out of the way, and only after 3 people, that I let go in front of me, I heard the spiked haired bitchy one say «if you’re waiting for me to fill the cases with these donuts, I’m not going to. I’m just going to get them off the rack» — really? what is the case for then? Whatever… so I checked to see what they had on the racks and don’t see any normal glazed donuts, so I ask «do you have any glazed donuts on the racks?»… the bitch says «no» … that’s it? Not «no, sorry, we won’t be making any more this morning» or «no, sorry, it’ll be about 10 minutes or so before the next batch comes out» … just «NO» with a scowl only a pit bull mother could love.
I’ve had enough of bad service and pit bull dispositions… There are plenty of other places that make donuts! (again I can’t vouch for the other products, but can sure as hell vouch for the service!)

Best bakery around! Always make sure to go early or you’ll be sorry… their pastries are the best!

Big fan of the cream horns. They use real whipped cream. I almost cried the first one I had because it was so good and reminded me of my childhood. I also am a big fan of the chicken pot pie. I’d like to say just like Momma made, but my Momma never made them. They’re really good. In fact everything we’ve had here is really good.

This is the place to go to for doughnuts, pastries, treats. Ask for the yum yums, honey cremes and bear claws to die for. Also try the chicken pot pie, you won’t be sorry.

Best bakery in town! I stop here every morning and receive the best service and baked good out there. Do I dare say best in the Midwest?! Not only great food but the staff is outstanding as well. Mike really knows how to make you feel like family.

Love this place. Staff is awesome. I would travel across the state to get their cake.

Small neighborhood bakery. The baked goods are very good! The people working there are friendly. The doughnuts are way better than you will find around the corner at Dunkin Donuts for sure.

The best donut creations in town! Yum Yum’s ask for them by name! Get there early because they sell out quick.

Robertos has been very hit or miss. Their cakes are definitely good but the pepperoni rolls are below average. The spikey haired lady that works there is similar to the soup nazi but much nastier in attitude. I had a female dog (aka a bitch) — very similar to the spikey haired lady.
Go to Bartz Bakery on Telegraph for a much more pleasant experience.

Discovered this bakery through Groupon and it’s now my one and only bakery. I’ve ordered many cakes from here and only once was I disappointed. The cake was just as good as ever but it looked nothing like a «lego» (couldn’t someone look online to see what a lego looks like?). I talked to the owner about how disappointed I was and he gave me a free cake for my next order. That’s good business! Still my favorite bakery ad I’m ordering another cake today!

Maybe I came here on an off day? There wasn’t a whole lot to choose from, so I opted for a pepperoni roll after reading someone else’s glowing review of them. I would have bought something sweet as well, but nothing looked particularly tasty. When asked if the roll could be heated (they are kept in plastic bags on the counter) the attendant said «microwave’s over there.» So my friend and I microwaved our rolls, which I regretted, as it only served to render them more terrible. The bread seemed pretty old; it tasted like refrigerator and had a very unpleasant soft yet stale texture. Hidden within the bundle of bready sadness was some of the grossest pepperoni I’ve ever consumed in my lifetime. I think it was really cheap hotdogs masquerading as pepperoni. I knew after one bite of weird hotdog that this thing was a one-​way ticket to acid reflux town, so I didn’t finish it despite being very hungry. My friend ate all of his, and sure enough, spicy burps for the rest of the day.
Unless you’re in the market for a cake frosted to look like a taco or enjoy the indignity of public microwaving, I recommend looking elsewhere for your pastry and pizza roll needs. Cantoro is pretty close to here, right?

Come super early for butter creams!
So, yea. Somehow my brother Dave P. and his wife Brenda M. (thx for the taco cake pic!) have hidden this place from me. I was gifted such sweet glory this past week. I simply didn’t order one of everything because I couldn’t carry it all, and I’d go into diabetic shock. I got some strudel, blueberry and cheese to be exact. Just wow, get some; flaky, crunchy, sweet and gooy in the middle, perfect icing on top. Also I was gifted some onion rye they have care of Dave P. again. Talk bout the best bread for a grilled cheese or egg sandwhich!

What can I say about this little gem… I know amazing. They have by far the best homemade pepperoni and cheese rolls ever. They offer u-​bake pizzas as well. As far as desserts go their iced brownies are superb. You need to get there early for those as they sell fast. The donuts are great as well. Especially the ones with a whipped cream type filling. Cannot remember what they are called but they are delicious. I have had birthday cakes from here as well and I highly recommend them. So what are you waiting for? Get to Roberto’s and get your sweet tooth on.

My mom always gets me a cake from here for my birthday. Lots of butter cream and tasty yellow cake. Super sweet. They are all about making old school cakes and they sure know what they are doing!

Old school bakery. Nothing flashy and all their focus is on the tasty treats coming out of their kitchen and to you the customer. We have been going here for years. I think they would do a bigger business if they cuted up the outside just a tiny bit because I think this fantastic independant bakery is over looked and I do not want it to go away.
Their cannoli perfect, no tasteless goo but REAL cream. Fantastic fresh bread and cookies, bargain prices.
Cakes are delicious. FULL robust flavor no picture perfect tasteless creations here, everything looks BEAutiful and tastes great.
Always service friendly and early AM hours!

Their cannoli are to die for. Not fake tasting cream, and really crispy shells.
This place doesn’t look like much from the outside, but everything they make is great.
We ordered a birthday cake for my son and it tasted great. Old school buttercream with moist cake. YUM.
We will be ordering the taco cake for another birthday, and trust that will be just as good.
(It’s decorated like a taco; doesn’t taste like one!)

Very creative, and what do you know? the cakes taste good too. ask about their hamburger cake or taco cake… very cool!
