La Gran Uruguaya Bakery

I have only ever come here for one thing only: the tres leches dulce de leche cake. It is absolutely delicious and my entire family has come for this cake for various occasions over the years. Removing one star because they do not take credit in 2025 and that’s annoying and the customer service could see some improvement. I haven’t tried anything else on the menu.

Very disappointed. The sign outside says debit cards are accepted, but once you’re inside, it’s “cash only.” That’s misleading and inconvenient. Prices change constantly — empanadas and ham & cheese croissants go up 50 cents to $1 from one day to the next. Customers are always asking how much things cost because nothing is consistent. Service is rude and unprofessional. The bread is good, but the inconsistent pricing, cash-only policy, and bad attitude make it not worth it.

Wanted some treats after exploring all the amazing food on 37th. Ordered two apple turnovers and some caramel treat with dried chocolate sauce and sprinkles. Staff was very friendly (Spanish speaking) and efficient. Beautiful inside and out, very spacious, lots of options. It's cash only, and parking is difficult to say the least. Would definitely return.

A Jackson Heights staple. I have been coming to this bakery since 2002 before they moved to this current location. Best empanadas and pastries you will have in Jackson Heights.

Visiting from Florida. Great service. We had the Uruguay parrillada and costilla soup. Soup was delicious. The meat was good but rating is compared with other places we’ve been.
