Located at 355 Kings Hwy, Brownsville, TX 78521, Cristy's Cake Shop operates as an italian deli serving Brownsville in Texas.

Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as wedding bakery, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

Italian restaurants, sub shops, calzone counters and Italian delis sit next to the pizzerias on this site because most of them bake pizza too, often from the same dough. Full-service Italian restaurants take reservations for dinner, add a tip line for table service (15-20% is customary) and usually run a cheaper lunch menu on weekdays. Sub and sandwich shops are counter-order and quick, with sizes by the inch or in half and whole lengths. Calzones and strombolis are priced like a medium pizza and are large enough to share. Italian delis and bakeries sell by weight and by the piece, and many close mid-afternoon.

The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. The most common schedule is 8 am–7 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Its Google rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 255 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

Brownsville is in Texas, in the South, where summers are hot and humid, winters are short, and severe storms in spring are a fact of life; businesses run air conditioning most of the year and many open early to beat the heat. Traffic in Brownsville peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.
