Jennifer helped me, she is awesome! She made it fun to be there. They have lots of choices of cookies, cakes, brownies, pumpkin-something-good and much more. When you're on your way to an event and you need to show up with something delicious, you can count on Roberto's!! ??????????

April and Jennifer was amazing!! My 2nd time getting the carrot cake cupcakes and they were very good. Will be back soon to get my hands on donuts (if not sold out already) which they have been last 2x I came, Overall great experience! Give them a try, You won?t be disappointed.

I just learned about this place last night coming back from a bike ride in Toledo. Our buddy Paul had stopped earlier in the day and gave me and my friend Chuck a pepperoni roll to eat on the way back to Detroit. It was the best damn pepperoni roll I?ve ever had in my life, so after I took care of some early morning stuff I headed right on over with my dog Ajax and we bought nine of these things to share with the family. But what surprised me even more was all of the baked goodies, how incredibly clean it

I absolutely love Roberto?s Bakery. They made my sons 1st birthday cake as well as my sisters 21st birthday cake . They both came out perfect. They are also very reasonably priced . I recommend them to everyone!!! I used to work right next door to them and would always stop in and grab something for lunch . Their pepperoni rolls are chefs kiss . Definitely worth trying out for all your bakery needs!

I like to pop into Roberto's from time to time, mostly to pick up some kind of dessert. Every time I get greeted with a smile, accomondated by professional, yet family friendly service! Now this is my kinda place! Two thumbs up! PS: Make sure to bring plenty of cash, for one sniff of the delicious bakery air is $5. Be prepared to go into debts! ??

Jennifer has to be one of the kindest, most considerate and friendliest person on the staff. Her treatment towards me and my partner was nothing but stellar, and she's absolutely wonderful at her job. She greeted us with a big, warm smile and serviced us promptly and efficiently. She made wonderful recommendations and was very knowledgeable about the food. She made a personal connection by complementing my outfit, and made me feel valued as a customer. I definitely WILL be back, and I'll ask for her everyti

Picked up a Birthday cake yesterday. It was decorated beautifully and was so good. I love this place.

Roberto's is a great place. I love going in here and getting fresh pastries donuts ,and not too bad spicy pepperoni rolls. Well Jamie and crystal are amazing women very kind friendly professional and personable love chat with these beautiful ladies go tell Them that Ryan sent You to come in and try out great products.

My wedding was on October 21, 2023. They made my beautiful cake below. It turned out exactly how I wanted it. It was delicious. I recommend anyone that is looking for a good bakery to pick here to make a cake for you. Thank you for making this beautiful cake.

Pleasantly surprised how delicious the baked goods taste. Highly recommend if you are looking for fresh natural ingredients in baked goods. Portion size for most of the goods are enough to feed two. Prices are comparable to local grocery store baked goods. The bakery can get busy so be patient if you have to wait for the staff to take your order. No complaints from me about this establishment. When I take my first bite I am pleased to the point there is always a smile on my face. Stop in and have yourself a

I bought Brownies a dollar 50 Cent a square taste like little Debbies and then I bought an apple pie. Take a picture of this and send it to you. My crust was thick and burnt ?? I never had anything like that. It didn?t even taste like it was homemade you sure you made this. You didn?t get that out of the frozen and then cook it over cause it?s burnt at the bottom thick crust and I mean like that in a frozen department, but this is terrible. I?m sorry

I go in the evenings around 4pm twice a week to treat myself to some sweets two of the ladies that work in the evening is so nice and honest..one of the ladies told me that in the case to the right when you first walk in the case where the cannolis and sliced cake slices are I wanted a piece of cake slice and the lady said I'm sorry but I don't feel comfortable selling you that cake ..it's been there for a week now ..so they sell old pastries and the lady was real enough to let me know .. some days sweets a

After riding around from Downtown Detroit with family for reasonable prices on cakes and cupcakes, now baby, this is the go-to bakery. Nice friendly ppl and clean establishment(in/out). Thanks to the lady in Wal-Mart who referred us to you. P.s. you can taste test the icing before you buy. Awesome ??.

Made a beautiful birthday cake for my father's 100th birthday and it was delicious too! Two layer's white with raspberry filling! Thank you so much! He begged me not to cut it!

Imagine going into this place that makes so many different kinds of cool donuts to be rushed and treated like an idiot because you don?t know what one is called at 6am when nobody else is there. Steer clear of this joint the rude helpless chick in here is the sour spot of this establishment. Go elsewhere!

Roberto's did our wedding cake and sheet cake for our wedding. Everyone was raving about it which is what we expected, because we love Roberto's for all our cake/sweets needs. They precut the sheet cake for us and also decorated our wedding cake with some flowers that we brought to them. The design was exactly what we wanted and couldn't have been more happy with it! If you are looking for a beautiful, tasty, and affordable cake, this is your place!

Great bakery that isn't trendy but good donuts and different kind of cakes. A throw back to the neighborhood bakery that used to be. Great to support one that still exists. Will stop in anytime I am close.

You want donuts, fresh bread, or even a pepperoni roll take your behind to Roberto's bakery where everything is fresh and delicious. The bakers are friendly and lovely people.

We originally contacted a bakery recommended by our wedding venue but that bakery was going to be closed the weekend of our event. That place referred us to Roberto?s. Cici was amazingly accommodating to us. Then there is the cake. All that I can say is WOW!!! I have seen and eaten a lot of wedding cakes. All of them were beautiful. Very few of them were delicious though. The cake from Roberto?s was both. Many weddings that I have been to have plenty of cake slices left over at the end of the night. We orde

This place is ABSOLUTELY PHENOMINAL!! No more fast food chain donuts for us EVER, especially with their prices so similar AND they take cash or card, so I'd much rather support my local small business!! The customer service was beyond compare, so warm and friendly with a beautiful display of MANY diffent kinds of donuts and other pastries. I can't wait to go back and try the Canoli!

Had a heart birthday cake and dozen cupcakes made. The cake was beautiful! It was all very yummy ! Thank you for the kind service also

My son will absolutely love this cake. I'm very pleased with our choice of Roberto's bakery. Don't mind the plastic wrap. The box can't be closed. We gotta keep it fresh til tomorrow.

Always greeted pleasantly. Their fresh baked bread, apple danish and turnovers are the best and man those cakes are to die for.

Walked in and immediately it smelled amazing inside. I bought an Italian loaf and red velvet cupcakes. Very good food, cashier was super friendly. Looking forward to trying the doughnuts next time.

This place has thee best doughnuts I've ever had.

The best bakery in this area period. Donuts are always fresh and they are pretty good at getting your items quick.

The Donuts are delicious and I Love them! I go early in the am and the lady who works morning is the rudest person I have encountered. It really takes all of my fiber not to cuss her out for being so rude and nasty. She cuts you off and barks at people. I have seen her be rude to others. A little customer service would be nice. This was not just a 1 time occasion with the same person. On a better note I also have come in the afternoon where the staff is very friendly and pleasant. But the donuts I pick up

I called on the phone about getting some paczki the night before they said I could do that I asked them how late they're open they said 6:00 I said okay I'll be by later when I got there they said I need to make an order and did not have any paczki for me.

The best bakery I have ever been to!! I love that they was able to give me exactly what I wanted! Full sheet baby shower cake, it was so delicious! The buttercream was so good. The cake itself...so moist and light. Even after a week and a half later! Yess!! I also order 2 dozen of cupcakes to match. The cake decorator was so sweet and understanding of our wants. That was my actual ultrasound picture of our baby! Perfect!! I wanted it made into an onesie and it was no problem at all. I ordered yellow and bl

I have been going here for years. Jennifer and Tina are always so helpful. The store is clean and everything is so delicious!

Came in today for the first time. Their cakes were beautiful!! I was so surprised to see that special design cakes were for sale and not made for custom orders. I bought a monster cake for my coworkers birthday and everyone loved it!! The lady working was so kind not only answered my questions but also the random questions my 7 year old was asking. I will 100% be back!! (I smudged the eye)

I have been buying ?Robert?s delicious pastries and cakes for the last six years. Their services is friendly, fast and welcoming to everyone. They have done wedding, birthday, anniversaries and just because cakes and pastries for me and I have been more than satisfied. Their cakes are detailed beautifully because they put so much time and effort in cake's and I might add delicious too! Everyone complements each and every cake that I have bought from them. I recommend this company to everyone please go try

The husband and I went for the first time today. I really wanted to get a ton of sweets and I did. The cannoli was so good and was absolutely the right thing needed. The raspberry pastry was delicious and was devoured as soon as we got into the car. The pizza roll with sauce is another hit from here. The people were so nice and very excited about their food. This is definitely a 10/10 recommendation and we will return again!!!!

Everyone loved my cake! Roberto?s is the best?? flavor was amazing and it looked beautiful. Thank you Cc!

10 star Pepperoni Rolls. You?ve never even had a real pepperoni roll until you?ve had Roberto?s. Eat just one and it?s over. Roberto?s Bakery should call their Pepperoni Roll "Unicorn Rolls" because it is such a rare find to find such AUTHENTIC pepperoni rolls. Nothing else compares.

They don't have many of these neighborhood bakeries left like Roberto's. Angel Wings?got em, cannoli? - to die for, they have whole strudels and almond rings for just $12, The homemade donuts are really, really good, ( hint the special honey donuts sell out first every morning). The counter woman was So Nice, and watching the neighbors come in to buy is nice too . Only thing that would make it perfect would be an outside table, some really good coffee like a cappuccino but that would be gentrification

What an Amazing little bakery ?? My son loved his Birthday cake! Just look at the deep purple and the taste was even better!?????????

So impressed with the friendliness and the quality. Visited Roberto's for the first time on Holy Saturday last year. Although they were very busy, they took the time to be kind and provided knowledgeable and efficient customer service. The lamb cake was both cute and yummy, the blessing bread was perfect, and the marble rye was soft and fresh, and Mom's sweet treat was beyond expectations. Picked up a couple of pepperoni rolls with sauce and they were out of this world. We went back a few months later to or

This is a neighborhood hidden gem. They have the best most tasty donuts and cakes. You have to go early because they run out of everything fast because they are so good.

On Aug 7th, 2021 ordered a half sheet cake for my daughters baby gender reveal dinner party scheduled for August 15th. I received the cake for the dinner on Aug 14th. The baby was a boy, and asked if I could get a blue batter inside. The staff agreed. When receiving the cake, I noticed they changed up the wording I wanted, the internal cake was more green than blue (but at least it wasn?t pink) and the cake was dry. Sorry, it was doable, but not a perfect score. I will add a pic of the color. I will give t

Went in on a Friday at 10am looking for their cake that resembles a big mac. They were out of them but made me up for pick up at 3pm. It looked so real my grandson wanted to taste the big mac sauce! Thanks for making this cake last minute. Was fantastic

Absolutely beautiful job (as always) on my boss's birthday cake. Been buying from Roberto's for years and will continue to do so.

Not sure what happened here but for years they were great. It has been a while now because I retired and don't buy for the office anymore. Stopped there today and the donuts have changed. Our favorite buttercream donuts had hardly any buttercream in them. Half full and even one with now powdered sugar. My family is here from florida and they were very disappointed.

Omg! Love this place. The apple bars and the yum yum's you have to try!

If I could put 1 star I would. I have always came to this place for all celebrations for cakes, since I was young. NEVER AGAIN. I was trying to do something special for my mother-in-laws birthday a 2-tier cake the lady said it would take 6-8 week notice for it to be done which ok that?s fine. But the lady was so rude when she was speaking. The customer service was just horrible. I found a place that is going to have it done by when it?s needed so I told her nvm. I went out to put the kids in the car went ba

You have get their early their prices a reasonable and their fresh

They made my niece's 21st birthday cake. I love their pepperoni rolls and spinach pies. They are always kind and helpful there. Recommend.

Amazing cakes , friendly service! ????????????

This was my first time in this bakery and the employee right away greeted my husband and I with kindness and provided us with recommendations for pastries. They were delicious! Definitely coming back. :)

The ladies in there are RUDE. They kept rushing me to pick something, mind you they still had 4 hours left before closing time. Really weird energy in there. Avoid this bakery and find somewhere else. The cupcakes were not even good, tasted like they were from the grocery store .

Literally, everything they make is good, even if it?s something you usually would not eat. The customer service is exceptional. I?m not even from the area, and I come out here from Ann Arbor to visit them and to get their very delicious baked goods. Thank you so much to the team for such a wonderful experience.

They are not consistent in their products.they never have the same thing everyday. You cannot walk in and expect to find what your looking for.their attitude sucks,iam surprised their still in business. I told myself I wasn't going back there again, I guarantee you that was my last trip.

Best danishes. Everything else is great too, but we come for the danishes.

Delicious treats! My fav were the donuts. Customer service sucked

We were very vague with what we wanted on a retirement cake for dad. When we picked up the cake we were blown away with how great it looked. It tasted amazing and everyone loved it!

Great bakery! Great food and good prices, love this place.

The service is exemplary, the pepperoni rolls and treats.. Even better. I drive 45 mins one way to go here. I?ve been coming here since I was a little girl. I bring my children and my granddaughter here! ?? We love the ladies and the establishment

I had a really great time, the ladies are really nice and helpful. The pizza rolls are great,my advice is to get there early just to get a look at the pastry products and get first pick before they fly off the show

This was my first time purchasing a cake from this bakery, so i was a little nervous because i usually stick to ordering from my regular guys. I ordered my my boyfriend's birthday cake from this bakery, and I must say it was delicious. I'm a new customer and glad I've gave them a try.

I have been going there for years yes the doughnuts are delicious as well as every thing else. I have recommended this bakery for years and it always was my go to for cakes for the holidays as well as doughnuts and breads. But no more not after the service I received this morning I have never been treated so rudely not only did she she tell me to get blank (don?t want to say it) she threw my card at me and said other colorful words at me. It all started because I ask her if she could string up my box of do

Staff we're so nice and helpful I had to order a cake pretty much last minute during graduation season and they gave me no issue and we're so friendly! The bakery smells absolutely fantastic! 100% will use this bakery again!

Always perfection!!! 5 stars My husband gets my birthday cake here every and they never disappoint. This year got cherry chip and was amazing yum!!!

I came in on Thursday and was looking for a Lamb cake for Easter there were none in store but I was able to order one and my friend Donna picked it up for me and I just wanted to say this is the cutest Lil Lamb cake and thank you to the person who paid for it for me, you know who you are. No one ever does such nice things like that for me and it truly touched my heart so thank you that truly made my day and thank you for giving my little Lamb blue eyes as requested. It's beautiful . Happy Easter from Anna

Everything is delicious and the prices and reasonable. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

#Reposted from 2018, to add pic of Wedding Cake...... To the staff at Roberto's Bakery. Once again you did not disappoint. From our family who have ordered cakes for more than 25+ years, our Daughter's Wedding cake this weekend is one of the most beautiful cakes you have done for us... It was Amazing and Delicious!!!!! The groom's Lions cake was wonderful too. A cute surprise from the bride .. Thank You All !!! ??

It?s always a pleasure to go here the staff is so helpful

Place is amazing. Everything is delicious

My niece ordered a hamburger cake for pick up on August 19. Upon arrival, she was eyed up then greeted with an attitude by the younger girl. The older girl came out of the back with an attitude at the younger girl for having an attitude with a customer. The cake box wasn't very sturdy, so the cake came out a little smashed on the sides. Unless you like attitudes and smashed cake, find a better small business to give your money to.

Ordered a full sheet cake 1/2 and 1/2 for a birthday. When I was there ordering they asked how I wanted it decorated and it was decided I should go to Lorna?s and have an edible image made. I really appreciated the suggestion and it turned out fantastic! It was the most moist, delicious cake, and was decorated exactly how I imagined! The next day at another party, everyone was still raving about how good the cake was!

The staff were pleasant and the baked goods were tasty. The donuts are good, but not something to make a special trip for. It's a bakery with donuts, not a donut shop. Their apple fritter was tasty and you'll like it if you like a good raised dough fritter without filling. There weren't any chunks of apple and if you're favorite parts of a fritter are the central gooey bits you'll be disappointed. The stars, however, are the bakery goods. The giant cherry and apple turnovers were great with the cherry win

Went in to get my wife a dozen donuts for her work plus other stuff for the house Only customer in there at the time. The woman behind the counter precedes to tell me she won't wait on me while I'm on the phone with my wife. She tells me that was rude of me to be on the phone with my wife while ordering. I responded I'm getting donuts for her work. Then I thought about the woman's comment, how she was the rude one. I turned around and left without ordering anything. Been going to Roberto's well over

Stopped to get donuts for work, and arrived at 6 am. Waited until 6:10 as the worker didn't even acknowledge I was at the door. I called, and she said she was running behind and would not open the store until she was ready. Not the store hours. I'm very disappointed. I'm going to have to find a new donut shop that honors their hours

Never disappointed by any of the goods we get from here. Definitely try the yum yum donut, lemon squares, and the pizza rolls.

Fantastic breads and sweets! Very nice people to deal with!

Not a fancy bakery but an excellent one nonetheless. Great donuts and sweet treats and if you grew up eating pepperoni rolls from your local corner store and long for that taste you gotta try theirs. Nice and plump, loaded with pepperoni.

Love going there everything is delicious and made with love as the girls in there say!!! You can tell you will not be disappointed

Make it your business to stop in if you're nearby and want some fresh goodness

Typically I go here for cakes/cupcakes or donuts. I decided to get all my baked goods for Thanksgiving this year from a local bakery. I ended up getting pumpkin pie, cheesecake, banana cream, pumpkin roll, cupcakes, donuts, spinach pastry and some other odds and ends. The Pumpkin pie and Thanksgiving style cupcakes were yummy as usually. My problem was the pumpkin roll was so overly sweet it was hard to eat the 2nd slice we found a hair baked into it so we ended up tossing it. The apple pie tasted like it w

I visited Robertos for the first time yesterday. It?s a nice hometown bakery with a wide selection of delicious looking treats. I?m rating it 3 stars because my apple fritter was pretty uncooked inside and there was a big piece of custard ?skin? in the Boston Creme donut bar that was slightly unappealing. The cherry and cream cheese danishes were good, though.

Went here for the 1st time the other day. I spent 20$ on some donuts, cupcakes & a piece of strudel. I wasn't impressed at all. Donuts weren't that great, the cheese strudel was kind of sour, the cupcakes seemed stale. The frosting on the cupcakes looked soft & beautiful but was hard & not very good. Disappointing to say the least. My friend at work had been telling me about this place for a year. When I finally made the trip from wyandotte, I was disappointed to say the least. I've been to tons of bakeries

Do NOT recommend. The cherry "chip" cake was overly sweet with big chunks of some sticky, fake- tasting cherry candy (not real cherries.) The kids didn't even like it. And despite giving them both written AND verbal instructions, there was no writing on the cake. $35 wasted

They make delicious cakes and they have decent prices. Two of my closest friends go here for every birthday cake but they do have one decorator that is absolutely terrible. I'm not sure if they are lazy or if they are still in training but it caused a huge problem back in August for a friend. The staff aren't incredibly friendly but they're not rude either. Efficient service, delicious cakes but it's hit or miss with the decoration.

When I called to place a custom order, was told they are too booked!!! I never heard of turning down business. This was at around 1pm on 08/17/20. The girl sounded very young and did not seem to care about my need for a cake. Am not impressed but still want to stop in and see if I can get one ready-made and make it work, as they have a lot of good reviews. I don't get it, just wanted to post it.

I called yesterday to order 4 dozen cupcakes for tomorrow and I was told they could not take my order because they were booked. Since I'm buying for a bridal shower I decided today to go in this morning and buy ALL of the plain white cupcakes and to try the same thing tomorrow. I told the lady (long dark hair) working the counter around 8AM this morning and she asked how many more I needed I told her and she said they'll be ready in the morning. ?????? So glad I stopped by there instead taking no for an ans

Very good pecan and almond bars. Friendly service too. And self serve coffee. They are also one of the few bakeries that sells banana cake.

This has been our family's Bakery for over 25+ years...from 1st Birthday cakes to Wedding, and every bit of yummy deliciousness they offer. The danishes and mini loaves are great, one of our favorites is cherry chip. They do NOT disappoint.

Had them make a Sesame Street theme birthday cake for our 1 year old grand baby. It was super adorable. Really great work. I also had a baby shower cake from here and that cake was to beautiful to eat. The last two cakes were yummy. Thanks Robertos

Thank you CiCi! My kids adored you!! This family owned business makes us feel like family EVERY time. Everything is yummy delicious, you made my kids first bakery experience an absolute blessing!!
