bruces Bakery | New york cheesecakes

Bruce's Bakery was founded in 1970 on the "Gold Coast" of Merrick, Long Island. After seven years of operation, Bruce's expanded to Roosevelt Field. In 1983, Bruce and Joel decided that Great Neck would be a perfect place to sell their high quality line of bakery products. Expanding the concept to a full service restaurant with a seven-page menu, Bruce's became a "one-of-a-kind" operation. Today, you can order everything from Cinnamon Raisin French Toast, Sliced Nova & Smoked Fish Platters, Chopped and finely diced Custom Salads, to Complete Dinners. Over the years, a complimentary basket of fresh baked goods has become a Bruce's trademark and tradition. At Bruce's we believe in satisfied customers. We know your desires and expectations will be met by the highest quality and standards at our FAMOUS restaurant and bakery.

In addition, our catering has become the most renown in New York. Patrons from Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, Brooklyn and Long Island flock to Bruce's for all special occasions, baked goods, custom catering or just to relax in our celebrated restaurant. When Westbury Music Fair needed a special cake to commemorate Bob Hope's 80th birthday, Bruce's INVENTED the celebrity "look-a-like" cake. A recent sampling of our latest portrait cakes include the likes of Jay Leno, Bill Cosby, Christie Brinkley, Cindy Crawford, Katie Couric, Matt Lauer, Tom Cruise, Heather Locklear, Lou Diamond Phillips, Howard Stern, Leah Thompson and Julio Iglesias. Over the years, Bruce's has been proud to be associated with hundreds of celebrities and luminaries from all walks of life.

Bruce's is deeply committed and firmly believes in community service. Whether donating a dinner for one hundred returning Gulf War Veterans and their wives, making a road more attractive for Great Neck the Beautiful, being a major sponsor of the Great Neck Art Center or daily donations to senior citizens, group homes and soup kitchens, Bruce's always considers community first. In 1997, Bruce's was proud to be the recipient of the Giraffe Award, Great Neck's most prestigious honor for continued outstanding community service. As Former President Bush said in his letter of commendation to Bruce's; "YOU ARE TO BE COMMENDED FOR YOUR SPIRIT AND DEEP INVOLVEMENT IN YOUR COMMUNITY... OUR NATION THRIVES ON CIVIC PRIDE...". FAMOUS since 1983, a local institution that Great Neck can be proud of, we thank you for your loyal and continued patronage.
