The best part about this bakery are the prices and atmosphere and service. Big chunks of cake for a buck or buck-fifty, amazing satisfying deals are everywhere, but these are just coffee-dipping appetite-suppressing types of cakes, definitely out of a box, definitely not artisanal, but they’re tasty for a buck! So far I’ve tried Carrot, Corn, Pineapple, Coconut, and Bread Pudding — all are about the same, always a good value; and the ambience is great.

Great baked goods most of which are $ 1. Coffee is extreme and undrinkable black so I wouldn’t recommend that if you like it dark.

Perfect place to get dessert after a patacon :) Great customer service. I really appreciate the friendly customer service when there is a bit of a language barrier. Tres leches($ 3) was perfection, so moist, icing isn’t too rich, and a VERY* generous size. Flan($ 2) smaller but still a good portion and worth it. They have a small flan cake that’s $ 6, a little more than 3x the size, so I might go with that next time. They have tons of breakfast options, pastries, doughnuts, and ice cream birthday cakes. Definitely thinking of coming here for the next birthday :)

Dyckman Bakery is small bakery located near the A train station. It’s actually a great place to go to in the morning to grab some breakfast. I usually go for the toast with a lemonade or any juice really. There are plenty of people that go their for their morning coffee, as well. However, more often than not I will pass by this bakery to grab a snack. I love the quesitos, which are only $ 1. They’re these puff pastries filled with something that I can only describe as sort of a sweet cream cheese filling. I would recommend getting one of those if you’re unsure of what to try. All the pastries and bread are fresh and recently baked from the look of things. I’ve never had an issue with customer service at this establishment.

I’m not sure why the reviewer below had such a problem, I speak maybe 10 words total in Spanish and I am able to order various things just fine on a regular basis and no one gives me an attitude. The doughnuts and avena are very good here and everything seems quite fresh.

More like DICKman Bakery. There’s a difference between a language barrier and being cross-culturally rude. Being genuinely unhelpful is not the same as not understanding what your customer is saying. For some reason, I actually bought items in this universally appalling joint: Coconut cookie con leche & pineapple cake. Both items were heavier than they looked and sat like an anvil in my stomach. Store-imposed culture shock or just an awful experience, none of which was my fault? I can’t say for sure.
