Red Ribbon Bakeshop

Filipino comfort food. Celebrations won’t be complete without Red Ribbon cakes. Favorites are the mango supreme and the ube cake. Also love their ensaymada, mamon and chicken empanada.

It’s one of my favorite bakery. I’m so addicted to their chicken empanada which I always buy boxes of it and I can eat it till I can’t no more. It also has lots of varieties of bread choices! Their cake are not that sweet and it’s very tasty!

One of the better bakeries in NYC and the best one if you want a little taste of Manila. Their empanadas are sweet and they are ALWAYS on point when it comes to their seasonal/limited edition cake slices (chocolate mousse). Treat yourself to one of Woodside, Queens' sweetest places.

Red ribbon is an amazing bakery. I love their chocolate moist Cake and moist Choco slice. Their customer service is amazing. Great location. The inside is so beautiful. I bought cake from them few times for birthday occasion. I got to try their halo halo and mocha mamon.😋

Mr. Lito T. was such a big help! He ensured we got the desserts we wanted and gave personal recommendations on what to try next. We will definitely come back! We love Red Ribbon!

I love Red Ribbon cakes! ❤️ This is the cake I grew up with. This Supreme Mango cake is one ☝️ of their best selling! It’s not so sweet like the other cakes out there that all you can tastes is the SUGAR! Red Ribbon cakes are not like that. Their cakes are so tasty 😋 and delicious! I love it! ❤️

Can't believe I haven't reviewed Red Ribbon, this is after all one of our stops whenever we go to Woodside Queens (coming all the way from Manhattan) for our Filipino food fix. So grateful they're around and certainly satisfies all the cravings. Drove yesterday to get 2 birthday cakes for the hubby. First and foremost, I called thinking I need to place an order and will just pick it up. Apparently they're already open and Lito, who I spoke to on the phone, even encouraged me to look for him to assist me. I never got to ask for him because there were only 4 customers allowed inside and it went by pretty quick! Love how it feels extra clean and safe inside. You can no longer personally touch the baked products, you'll just order it and they'll pack it for you so less risk of exposure to anything potentially transmitted. Provides peace of mind. As for the order itself, my husband requested for his favorite Yema Cake and I added my favorite Chocolate Mousse cake. So so so GOOD! As always, they were a hit to our non-Filipino guests and family members (they always end up asking where to buy and me being the ambassador and endorser of the brand) and to my hubby who's been won over by Filipino food and taste. ♥️ Our other must-buys and favorites here are mamon (sponge cake like), Choco Moist, Ube Cheese Ensaymada, and of course the Ube Cake. Any Ube lover would absolutely be obsessed by this cake, trust me! :) They also have savory food and we absolutely love their Chicken Empanada and Arroz Caldo. They're also very famous for their Palabok and Halo Halo (when we were first dating, I brought my husband here and he absolutely loved it) and have quite the customer following for these and more. My absolute highest recommendation! Thank you Red Ribbon for being here! Manhattan branch soon, please? =)

I don’t know if its just me but I noticed the famous cheese mamon are so different now from the one they are selling 3 years ago. They didn’t just change the packaging but the recipe as well. The packaging looks flat and the mamon as well. I hope they will bring back the old recipe mamon because now I won’t recommend anymore Red Ribbon. Better buy almond sponge cake from Rainbow bakery taste even better.

Yummy Filipino empanadas & baked goods! Fast service and take out ambiance. I was in neighborhood and didn't realize it was so close so decided to go in since I was right there.

Bought their palabok, family-size for USD$17. Taste was OK. No shrimp. Only minced pork and pork rinds. Sauce was creamy.

Red Ribbon Bakeshop at Roosevelt Avenue, Queens, NYC is a Filipino Bakeshop that is well known in the Philippines for their delicious and amazing cakes for all occasions, and pastries. I always buy something here whenever I am in New York. This store is conveniently located at the Roosevelt Avenue, where you can take the subway if you stay at Manhattan, or a quick 30 minute drive. The store is small but full of baked goodness from delicious cakes that you can purchase whole or a slice. They also have assorted flavors of ensaymada, mamon, and polvoron. They also serve empanadas and pancit palabok. Ube Overload Cake and Mango Supreme Cake is so good and one of the favorites! Service is good, complete with Filipino hospitality and smile. Clean, cozy and relaxing ambiance with the aroma of freshly baked goods. Check it out!

Clean, friendly and stocked with goodies! Grabbed an assortment of mamon, ensaymada, empanadas and a slice of ube flan. Friendly and efficient check-out. Will be back!

Good customer service, thank you to store Manager Denz he help me a lot on my order. Be back again and hope all staff maintain the excellent service

Tried the halo halo and it was superb. The combination of shaved ice, ube ice cream, flan, jelly, condensed milk, cream, and all the other fillings was delicious

Love this place to fulfill my ube and Black Forest cake cravings! Their ube desserts actually taste like ube. The cake itself is fluffy and the cream is not too sweet - just what I'm looking for. I've also tried the flan and the mango cake which are pretty good as well. Make sure to eat the flan fresh! Line is usually long but moves quickly. I've heard good things about the mamons so will def be back for that!

normally I like the baked items from Red Ribbon but this time I purchased it this past weekend and found that the Cheesy Mamon and a Cheesy Ensaimada both had mold in it. The date of expiration was 6/3 and they were kept in the fridge since it was purchased. Not a good thing to be finding mold in food that hasn't expired according to the label.

Red ribbon is my go to yummy breads, cakes and pancit palabok cravings! Wish they'd bring back the tuna empanada!

I bought some cheesecake mamon at woodside red ribbon New York and there is bunch of mold inside, and I don't know why they still selling the products 3 days before the expiration. and I spoke to the supervisor his Name is Brylle and he can't even answer my questions until he contacted the general manager his name is Lito and his very tricky and a lier,.. pls don't ever buy there products anymore it's just gross and dirty

I went to this big shop with a few friends and I'm so glad we went period to find a Filipino bakery is a rare delight. When we arrived at the shop, we were greeted with smiles and salutations. The mamon are lining the window, boasting 4 flavors. I knew by the way a few shoppers were tossing them into a basket, I needed to snag a few. The there were the cakes.... full stop. The cakes were beautiful, decadent and ready to sell. They were so pretty, i thought they were displays! I tried the ube explosion and it was EVERYTHING!!!! Fluffy, delicious, and not cloying sweet. And the mamon were delicious too. So soft and tasty. My friends enjoyed their halo halo and vowed to get a slice of cake next time. I will definitely be back!

The Ube coconut roll is something you have to try. We had it delivered and was nicely packaged.

On a positive note, this location has improved their palabok. There was a plentiful amount of chicharon and sauce ( past orders ordered extra sauce on the side ) and the noodles were well soaked in the sauce. Counter point - the pan de Sal was not as flavorful as before and the Sans rival is made with margarine instead of butter. In addition, the Halo Halo consists 90 % of crushed ice and 10% of ingredients and simple syrup. There wasn't any condensed milk , and it had a tiny " scoop" of whipped cream that fools the customer into believing it is mango ice cream.

It's taken me forever to finally try this place. I know it's a chain, but the quality here is really good. Do not sleep on the mamon. MAMON (Ube and Mocha) - we got these fluffy little breads that come in the packages and upon eating the mocha one we were just shocked by how good it was - it doesn't look like much but for the mocha, the coffee flavor is bold, rich, and really hits you in the face and wakes you up in a great way. The chocolate flavor wasn't overpowering and it wasn't too sweet. The texture is very much like chinese sponge makes if you're familiar with that. The Ube one was good too, and had a subtler flavor than the mocha one, so our standing favorite is the Mocha. HALO HALO Solid halo halo, the ice chunks are rather large and so I was chewing on ice for a good portion of it but the layers of flavor are great and they really do make it stand out with their whipped mango topping which is decadently smooth, and tastes of marshmallow with shreds of dried mango inside. You don't lose it either like you would ice cream, as it doesn't dissolve into the milk. Green jelly, red bean and ube layers are delicious. Little bit of flan for good measure.

I'd been here multiple times. What a shame that I have never reviewed this bakery shop. It is a staple to Filipino community in terms of baked goods. From ensaymada to their famous occasion cakes, it is hard to choose which to pick either to eat at the moment or to take out. I can't remember how often have I tried their famous and people's favorite mango cake and ube cake. Nothing is sweeter than the bakery's cake, always a delight to have anything from the store. For todays visit, got their famous empanada ( box) and the to die for Brazo de Mercedes. The sans rival is very tempting but I said pass this time. It was quite busy during the visit hour but worth to wait. Sadly their tasteful arroz caldo that I'd been craving for was not available. I'd meaning to come back.

If you're looking for a filipino franchised bakery this is it!!! In addition, you can order platters suitable for a family gathering!!!

I grew up eating red ribbon (not from this location) pancit canton. Since I was visiting, I thought I'd pop in and order some for ole times sake. As soon as I enter the store, I doubted ordering. Have you ever smelled your kitty's fresh litter box? And I mean fresh. Freshly peed. Pooed. And this smelled like red ribbon. When I used the bathroom, I walked into a male staff member who forgot to lock the door. He left shortly afterwards. Without washing his hands and drying (deducing it from standing outside). So take that as you will. Dirty. Unhygienic staff who don't wash their hands. Prepping your cake, your pancit, your halohalo and empanadas. Gross.

Ordered yema cake for a Christmas party. It used to be the best cake "DULCE DE LECHE". Now it doesn't even taste anything at all! Such a disappointment. I was very proud for my non Filipino colleagues about the cake and was disappointed with the taste.

Melt in your mouth butter mamon brought back sweet memories of my childhood! Haven't had this amazing comfort food in years. Still just as yummylicious as it was the first time I had it years ago. Wish Red Ribbon Bakeshop was closer, I would walk there everyday. Well worth your time & money!

My first Filipino food experience. My Filipino friend brought me to the area and introduced me to some different Filipino cuisines, I had the most amazing day trying new things that I've haven't tried before including items from Red Ribbon Bakeshop. This bake shop had so many amazing items, because this is a newer cuisine for me, I wouldn't even know where to start or how to properly pronounce the names of these items, but the drink was absolutely amazing. It was a mix of shaved ice, red beans, Ube, and some other ingredients that I am unaware of lol but all together they made sense and worked and we're really delicious. I also tried a chicken empanada from here and it seriously tasted like a mini pot pie. All of the flavors were so delicious and the dough and crust was unlike any other empanada I have ever had. It's definitely safe to say Filipino food has a special place in my heart now.

Stopped in here to look around as I had to kill time. Ended up getting a pastry item. The prices are decent, and it won't break the bank. They not only sell cakes and breads, but regular food items too. The place itself is roomy enough. You may dine in or do take out. I don't think they have wifi, so it isn't like a café where you can work out of and stay to shoot the breeze. It's one of those places where you just drop in and out very quickly. I may return if I'm in the area again.

First time visiting this bakery and was super excited to try their ube cake. Very clean inside and the young lady at check-out was warm and friendly. The cake overall was not that great. The cream filling was too sweet and greasy. I've had better ube cake. Probably would return for their other baked goods though.

Sama ng service nila. 9pm daw ang sara pero 8:45pm hindi na papasokin. Nag biahe sa lamig and hindi na pinapasok kahit full staffed. Ang sama. Even though they're fully staffed, they won't let customers in at 8:45pm to pick up when they close at 9pm.

Have always liked this place for their Filipino desserts. Bought a bag of Mamon on promo, 10 pcs for $20. The staff was friendly and helpful. Initially purchased 6 Mamons at regular price and then noticed the 10 mix & match promo for $20. Spoke to someone and they happily allowed me to purchase 4 additional Mamons by paying the price difference ($2.xx). That promo was a bargain. Halo Halo here is probably the best in the area. Never experienced a freshness or quality issue from this place. Forgot my iPhone on the counter, walked to my car and realized I left it in the store. Walked back in and they returned the phone to me after securing it in a safe place. Honest workers! Hardworking too! Very much enjoy visiting this bakery and will return in the future.

Pretty, pretty good. (Hope you read that in Larry David's voice!) I've never heard of this place until I was around the hood while getting some Jollibee. We got sacks of the butter breads and ube breads. It's grainer than the Chinese cakes found at Kam Hing but it's still tasty with its fatty goodness. I enjoyed the ube cake and mango cake slices. If I was any closer to the store, you'll see me in My 600-lb Life so thank goodness for that!!

I don't like cakes in general, but Red Ribbon's mango cake was delicious and I'd order it again. Much more mango than the other mango cakes I've tried. Not sure, but it might be cheaper to buy it by the slice. The ube cake was mediocre and drier in comparison. Would not get it again. The staff is very fast and had cakes ready within seconds. The line extends around the corner of the block, so be ready to stand outside for a few minutes. Found out that the company that owns Jollibee purchased Red Ribbon, and by the way the Jollibee is like a 2 minute walk away. I wonder if the halo halo from the two places are the same.

Visited an hour ago and was let down by a number of things. Not only do they not have very limited stock of cakes, the cake slices are no longer available. They also do not have Halo Halo. But what's particularly disappointing is service from the staff, I always knew this branch was a let down in the customer service department and weren't the nicest and most polite bunch but this guy Charles kept over talking me. I ordered for the Arroz Caldo with empanada meal as well as Palabok with arroz caldo meal and I asked nicely can you please make that Chicken Empanada for both and he answered "it's always chicken empanada" in a condescending way. Whoa, sorry for being a customer here, Charles. But we were perfectly fine without your condescending attitude. Honestly really turned off. I've been here more times than I could count, have always bought desserts for family events and have always recommended this to non-Filipino friends who needed desserts for special occasions. Businesses fail to realize that they can turn away their customers by how their employees interacts with their customers. And they pay them for it. Such a shame.

Ube! Ube! Ube! That was the draw. I also thought it'd be fun to bring my bestie Yelper Jo some treats from here. Not going to lie, I went a little overboard with my purchase. I grabbed enough treats for days and for my family and friends. The cakes were very good and my family and I liked the wrapped cakes/pastries. The staff here was very nice and friendly. Notably while busy, they did keep a clean shop. I would definitely return if in the neighborhood again. I was merely passing through to kill time before my dinner plans. My wallet was lighter, ha ha. So much to explore and I love how the goodies were just on display so you can easily grab what you need. Thanks to my fellow Yelp friends for introducing me to this spot.

This is the Queens location of a bakery chain from the Philippines, and while I do prefer other local spots like Purple Dough, I thought it was pretty solid. The ube cake was decent - nice and moist, with good ube flavor - and I liked the ube mamon as well. Service was super friendly.

Ube cake is awesome. This place fits for an after dinner dessert spot. The cake isn't too sweet.

Still one of my must-go favorite institutions any time I'm am nearby. Butter Mamon- I know of no other lighter more satisfying pound cake than you. I could eat 10 in a sitting but will only ever allow myself 3 at a time. We also had a slice of mango cake this time. Light, creamy, fresh- it almost holds a candle to butter Mamon and rivals tous le jours mango cake. Almost.

Tonight we tried bakeries from res ribbon as we happen to be in the neighborhood. I bought 2 mocha mamon which are soft fluffy mini sponge cakes. They have them in different flavors like mango, ube and mocha, Since i was at the store a few minutes before closing. I end up buying 2 mocha mamon, we took it home and had it with a nice cup of french brewed coffee. The mocha flavor was there, not very sweet, ice coffee flavor and for $1.75. Well I suppose that i cannot ask for too much. I certainly will come back and check the rest of the pastries and maybe even order a cake. Definitely a good bakery worth traveling to in woodside.

Bought these for mother's day, but it looks like I got a bad batch. These say best before 5/9, but there was mold on a few in this batch. I bought other ones with 5/7 expiration, but they were fine when eating on 5/8. Nothing against red ribbon, but just be mindful of the sponge cakes before eating.

Thank you for my brother's beautiful birthday cake!! It is perfect very lovely writing! The halo halo and butter mamon was tasty! My boyfriend tried the mamon for the first time and was obsessed with it. Will be back to get more halo-halo!

Delicious cakes and pastries! The ube cake was exceptionally delicious and the ingredients tasted fresh! The service is quite slow probably because I went there during their peak hours so a tip, go earlier on a weekday rather than the weekend! Quite crowded atmosphere but again it's because I went on a weekend. Overall, worth the wait and cake is just so delicious and satisfying I hope they have more branches throughout New York!

Food ok : Service is definitely sub par ! Online ordering.. stay away from it !!! They take order BUT unable to FULFILL it on time as ordered. Their sorry excuse is they have too many online orders ... REALLY!!! Order was placed 9:00AM for 1:00PM pick and we waited more than an hour... it's just unacceptable!!! CHAOS inside this place is an understatement!! DEFINITELY their system needs an overhaul !!!! Lesson learned!

Excellent service. Very clean store. Bakery was well stocked. Halo halo was my all time favorite place to go. Extremely large variety of bakery.

Stopped by here a week or 2 ago on a Saturday night because I was craving some ube cake after having some Filipino food in the neighborhood and also because one of my Filipino coworkers recommended their Ube Cake once she found out about me loving ube. Beware that parking is very difficult in this area! My fiance double parked while I ran in to get the goodies. I was really debating getting a whole Ube Overload Cake all to myself but they're actually a pretty decent size (~$26, reasonably priced imo) so I decided to just get slices. In the beginning, I didn't see any on display so I asked the cashier (who was very pleasant) with fingers crossed and he actually had 2 slices to go left in the fridge so I bought those. I also got 2 of the Ube Mamon Purple Yam Sponge Cakes and a Palabok Family Platter ($12.99 - it says it serves 2-3 people but I think it's only enough for 2 adults at the most). I shared the ube slices with my parents and brother and everyone loved it! I regretted instantly not buying a whole cake for myself. The sponge cake was also very good (nice spongey texture and just the right amount of flavor) and the Palabok as well. The Palabok came with so much of the sauce which is exactly how I like it!

This is my favorite spot. Whenever there is a celebration, their mango cake is my go to! If I'm in the neighborhood, I will get a mango roll to share with the family. I highly recommend getting their mango cake for your next event or celebration!!

Absolute fire. This place is great and you should treat yourself to some of their goods. Came here cause my sister said it was her favorite Filipino bakery. To be honest, I've never really had much Filipino dessert, but wow was she right. I love ube now. I need more ube in my life. The two things I come here for are the ube mamon and the ube cake. The ube mamon is now my go-to dessert of choice. I get 3-4 a week. The ube cake is now a staple for birthdays and celebrations. Folks here are extremely nice. You can use tap and pay (love it). And you can also order online and pick up. Might want to use the last option on the busier occasions. The love for Red Ribbon is significant and there are sometimes lines out the door and around the corner. Treat yo'self.

When you think of Woodside, you think Red Ribbon Bakeshop. Whether you're looking for a quick cup of coffee, a standard pastry, or something new and fun, you can't go wrong with a visit here. All the cakes, from the Ube to the mango are delicious. Try anything and thank me later.

UBEr delicious cakes! I'm a huge fan of ube and I'm always on the hunt for ube desserts. The only thing that stopped me from buying every single pastry here was the calorie count listed below each item's name. Even so, I bought the Butter Maman, the Ube Maman, and a slice of the ube cake. I loved the Butter Maman and the Ube Maman! Both are fluffy, moist, and the perfect dessert/breakfast to satisfy a sweet tooth. I liked them even more than Kam Hing's sponge cakes, which were the gold standard for me. I liked the ube cake as well. It had the right amount of ube flavor and wasn't overwhelmingly sweet.

Bakery is located on the corner of the block, and parking is pretty tough if you're driving in like I did. Interior is cute but small as I noticed waiting for my halo-halo. I usually stop in only to order to go but next time I'll try to sit in for a different experience. I've previously purchased a 6 Mocha Mamon (~$10) and a slice of Ube Cake ($3~) and Mocha crunch cake (slice) as well as a Halo-Halo. All my orders have been delicious so far! Their cakes are light and fluffy and the slices are packaged very well in a container which is helpful if you're taking it out to go. Icing isn't heavy or overly sweet, at least to me. Their Mocha mamon doesn't exactly taste like mocha, it leans more towards a regular coffee flavor than espresso and chocolate so if you pick up on that too, you're not alone and it's not that big of a deal. Halo-Halo was very delicious! I love the added scoop of ice cream. Overall, I stop by whenever I'm in the neighborhood and I recommend you check them out too!

I love how the pastries and cakes are always fresh and always yummy. (Not gonna lie though, their prices have been going up through the years. A chicken empanada is going to set you back $3. Grabe naman po lol .) I usually buy the ube cake or mango supreme cake. Recently, I have been buying the 6 pack of ube mamon (it costs approx. $11 for a six pack, and they throw in a butter mamon for free so that's pretty nice). I made little DIY cake decorating kits for my pamangkin, and they had a blast! (See attached picture.) In addition, a drawback to red ribbon is that their ube products sell out soooo fast. ESPECIALLY during the holidays. I was on line on three separate occasions, before and after Noche Buena and Christmas Day, waited a few hours only to find that the ube products were all sold out. But now that the holidays are over, I am looking forward to a shorter wait time. Also they are very good at keeping Covid-19 regulations within the store, however, when the line reaches outside of the store, the six feet apart rule is not always met.

It's ya girl International D (lol)back with another one.So I Been meaning to check this place out for too long! Finally had the time and I'm so glad I did. This is a Filipino bakery that a friend of mine told me to check out a while back. I decided to check out their beef empanada and it was really tasty. The dough is more like pie dough but the filing is very delicious! Now onto the real reason why I been feenin! HALO HALO!! Finally got to try this dessert I've been seeing on social media and hearing such great things about. It is a very interesting mix of flavors but in a great way. I gotta admit the bottom bean layer I did not like but the rest of the layers were amazing! I'm gonna see if I can request it without that next time. And for those of you who don't know what Halo Halo is it's a Filipino dessert made with mixed fruit, boiled sweetened white beans, milk, and shaved ice, typically topped with purple yam, crème caramel, and ice cream. Sounds like a lot and it is but trust it all works lol. I def recommend giving this place a first try!

Got to try the Ube mamon as my free mamon as the time I went (a month ago) they were ot of butter mamon huh. Boy is it sweet! Just the right amount of ube flavor. Also gotthe Halohalo here and compared to Jollibee's I like this version a lot more. Less focus on the ice cream and more so on the toppings. It's a great dessert that's not too sweet. Tried the palabok and I think I like the jollibee's one better in this sense because I don't know if it was me but the palabok was extremely salty.

I got the Ube Overload Cake slice, which was amazing - full of flavor, soft cake texture, and sweetness level was not overly mild or rich. I would get this again, and makes me curious about their other cakes like caramel yenma. I got the Buy 6 mamon + 1 butter mamon deal. These are a bit too mild for what I enjoy, but if you like the texture and mild sweetness flavors, these are for you. I think they are all the same price, and out of all the flavors (butter, ube, cheesy, and mocha), I think I liked the butter and cheesy the most. The cheesy comes with a sweet, cheddar-like cheese topping, so this has the most distinctive taste out of all of them.

Really good and fast service that I noticed that the manager kept the workers busy to get other people's orders fast and quick! I ate here today on a hot Saturday afternoon to take a nice and great walk. I had ordered and brought the halo halo! The halo halo was really good and sweet! I also didn't wait too long to wait and get my order. Finally, I would definitely come back again next time! :)

Yummy in my tummy mango goodness. If you want quality mango cake this is the spot! My cousin brought over this cake and first bite into it I was hit with fresh mango and a light fluffy cake texture. I was like woah. This is legit mango. We devoured this cake and after I finished eating I didn't even feel disgusted at myself because the cream was light and the cake was very light. It made me feel healthy eating all that fruit for the day haha. Everyone else enjoyed the cake and we all talked about how fresh the mango was and how fluffy the cake itself was. This cake is definitely on my crave list and I want more!!
