Crema's Take

This beloved neighborhood bakery is a nostalgic destination for traditional Italian pastries, particularly their celebrated rainbow cookies with perfectly balanced almond layers, jam, and chocolate—though consistency can vary across their wider selection. Beyond the sweets, they're known for seasonal specialties like their generously-sized honey ball boxes and classic cream pies that keep families coming back, though parking is tight in their modest side lot. It's the kind of old-school operation where you'll find genuine craftsmanship alongside occasional misses, making each visit a bit of a pleasant gamble for lovers of traditional Italian-American baked goods.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

Lyndhurst Pastry Shop/Chocolate Chip Cookie: Financially, this was an excellent deal. However, when I saw the swirls on top of the cookie, I had a feeling this wasn’t going to be a hit. It wasn’t chewy nor gooey and too crunchy throughout. I can tell this bakery has other…
