About Us

Some bakeries open and close before a neighborhood even notices them. Martha's Country Bakery has been on Bell Boulevard since 1969, which means it has outlasted trends, recessions, and countless food fads by doing exactly one thing: making exceptional baked goods from scratch, day after day, for over 54 years.

The Napoleon cake alone has earned a reputation that stretches well beyond Bayside. Layers of crisp pastry and silky cream that regulars swear have no equal in the city. But the menu runs deep, from celebration cakes that survive an hour's drive to New Jersey without losing a single rosette, to pies and specialty treats that turn an ordinary Tuesday into something worth remembering.

Open every day of the week from 6 AM until midnight (and until 1 AM on Fridays and Saturdays), Martha's fits into your schedule whether you're grabbing a morning pastry before catching the LIRR or picking up a late-night treat after dinner. Over 3,700 reviews averaging 4.4 stars tell the story better than any description could.

What We Offer

Martha's Country Bakery keeps it straightforward: walk in, order ahead for pickup, or have your order delivered through DoorDash. The in-store experience is the full show, with an extensive display case of cakes, pies, and specialty treats you can browse before deciding.

Pickup orders are ideal when you need a custom cake for a birthday, anniversary, or any occasion that deserves something made right. The staff is known for handling special requests with care, ensuring that even a large tiered cake arrives at its destination looking exactly as it left the bakery. DoorDash delivery brings Martha's baked goods directly to your door when you can't make it in yourself.

Whether you're a regular who knows exactly what you want or a first-timer still working through the menu, the warm atmosphere and knowledgeable staff make every visit feel like the right call.

"Martha’s Country Bakery Martha’s Country Bakery in Bayside is a reliable neighborhood spot, especially convenient thanks to its location near the LIRR station. It’s easy to drop in whether you’re meeting friends or just picking something up on the go. The éclairs stand out as one of the better items on the menu—well-balanced with a satisfying cream filling and a proper pastry texture. Their pound cakes are also worth noting: generously portioned, moist, and consistently flavorful across different varieties, which aligns with what many regulars appreciate about the bakery. The coffee, while perfectly serviceable, doesn’t quite reach the same level as the pastries—it’s standard rather than memorable. That said, the overall experience is solid, with a wide selection of classic American-style baked goods and a comfortable, casual atmosphere that keeps people coming back. In short, it’s a dependable choice for pastries, particularly if you’re in the area and looking for something indulgent and accessible."

"Huge thanks to the amazing staff at Martha’s Bakery in Bayside for helping me with this order! Not only did the cake survive an hour drive to New Jersey completely intact, but it was also a massive hit. We got a 10-inch cake and there wasn’t one piece left. Everyone loved it!"

"Their Napoleon cake is really something special. If there’s a better one out there, I honestly haven’t found it yet. The layers are light and crisp, the cream is smooth, and everything just comes together perfectly. It’s the kind of dessert you end up thinking about afterward. Definitely worth trying if you’re anywhere near Bayside. Update: Their Napoleon cake is still the best — that hasn’t changed at all. Because of how much I love it, I decided to try their chocolate layer cake this time as a $50 birthday cake for my coworker, just to try something different. Unfortunately, compared to the Napoleon, the chocolate layer cake was very ordinary and a bit disappointing. For the price they charge, the flavor really didn’t match the value. I’ll definitely go back to the Napoleon cake next time."

"Martha Bakery is Simply the Best! Love it for a quick coffee or a show-stopping dessert, this place consistently delivers. Their selection is incredible, balancing classic bakery favorites with unique, delicious creations. I always look forward to trying something new, but I have a few must-have recommendations: * Tiramisu: Absolutely perfect. Rich, creamy, and the coffee-soaked ladyfingers are spot on. * Strawberry Shortcake: Fresh, light, and wonderfully sweet—it's a classic done flawlessly. * Tres Leches Cake: Incredibly moist and perfectly soaked. It’s heaven for anyone who loves milk cakes. * Chocolate Mousse Cake: Decadent and airy, a pure indulgence for chocolate lovers. Beyond the cakes, their cheesecakes are outstanding, and the smaller treats like their mousses are fantastic for an individual craving. Their coffee is the ideal companion to any pastry. The quality, variety, and taste are unbeatable."

"The lines are long sometimes. But they move along pretty fast. It's crowded because their deserts are to die for. Our favorites are a slice of "German chocolate," and the delicious "carrot cake.""
