William Greenberg Desserts

“Ordered 80 cookies for my wedding. Cookies were fantastic and were loved by guests, however many had their icing smudged a bit. If you order from here, please make sure to triple check what you want with the bakery. I called three times, each time to confirm what I wanted and timeline for when I wanted to pick it up. I received exactly what I wanted, but the bakery assumed the incorrect pickup window after confirming three times on the phone and email. The bakery was nice enough to deliver the cookies for free to my wedding venue later in the day due to this. I assume the icing was smudged a bit due to the cookies not being able to dry due to the miscommunication about pickup time. Do not email the bakery. You will not get a response. I have been wanting a receipt for my purchase and still have not Received one after asking multiple times. Overall, the bakery was nice to work with, but communication between employees/ management checking email and communicating to the customer can be improved. I would swing by again for a black and white cookie.”

“They have a small outdoor seating area that I really liked, but the cookies weren't quite my style. They were just a bit too sweet for me, especially the white side.”

“I recently visited after my mom told me some family lore about William Greenberg's. Apparently, in the 60s and 70s, my grandma used to fly with boxes of their treats to Puerto Rico upon request of a friend that used to live in New York. It seems like every New Yorker with generations of lore has something to say about William Greenberg's. My neighbor says it's where his mother bought his Bar Mitzvah cake and says that he sends their famous chocolate cake whenever the occasion arises. Going there feels like stepping back in time from the moment you see their retro red and white exterior. But most impressive to me were the BEST BLACK AND WHITE COOKIES I've ever had. And I'm not even usually a fan. But the cookie is light and flaky, and the icing has just the right amount of give before melting away in your mouth. And they come in super cute colors? I ate four immediately. They also have vegan options!”
