    The door was locked when I visited and as I was walking away, one of the owners called me back. That was a good thing as these currant rolls were amazing! Flaky with a hint of sweetness, I liked the The beef and chicken patties took me to flavor town and back. The crust was a little thicker than I would have liked but whether I took a bite out of the chicken or beef, both were really good! The service could not have been more friendly. I was truly aimlessly roaming the neighborhood waiting for my reservation at another restaurant when I came across Allan's Bakery. I was given a ginger smoothie sample to try and that got me hooked. An icy, punchy ginger smoothie on what seems to be another muggy hot day in NYC really hit the spot.

    I found myself in the LES and noticed that there was an Allan's location in the vicinity. Having gone to the Brooklyn location over the years I had to stop in. It's a small brightly lit Caribbean bakery that sells the items I remember purchasing growing up in Flatbush. I picked up Coconut roll Current Roll Fish cake Fried bakes Service was fast and pleasant. Unlike the BK store I was the only customer around 5:30 so I was in and out. The items were as good as I remembered.

    Allan's Bakery is Caribbean-centric bakery that serves up a small menu of savory eats, sweet items, breads, and coffee and tea drinks. it's a small modern bakery store located in the Lower East Side. there's no real seating in the shop as it's a compact space, but the interior is well organized, clean, and brightly lit. it seems to be a grab and go spot and it's located only a couple of blocks from an F train stop. stopped here weeks ago and grabbed a drip coffee to go. coffee was solidly fine as it is via machine. this very much a store selling baked items, not a coffee shop. while the sweet items look good, i went for the savory and got a beef patty and a small bag of baked fried. the beef patty had a soft yet flaky crust--the beef filling is well-seasoned but not spicy. definitely a good small bite when you're on the go or want something satisfying but not filling. the baked fried is basically small round pieces of fried bread that are slightly salted fluffiness and are rich bc they are fried but not oily. fried bake is typically paired with other savory eats like cheese or eggs or Trinidadian salt fish. to me, they were fine on their own almost like a fried dinner roll as a snack. the service is pleasant and quick. don't think any baking is done on premises but the food is solidly good and different from your typical offerings around the Lower East Side.

    Was offered some small beef patties this afternoon and they were delicious. Filling was tasty and patty was nice warm and filling.

    This might be one of the most beautifully curated bakeries I've ever been to. I was completely…read moreobsessed the second we walked in, especially with all of the desserts designed to look like actual fruit! Mango, blueberry, avocado, lemon - you name it, they somehow turned it into the cutest, most beautifully crafted pastry. Everything looked almost too pretty to eat... almost. We definitely tried more things than we probably needed to, but it was 100% worth it. The pastries weren't just beautiful either--they were genuinely delicious. We also tried a couple of their specialty lattes, which were really tasty and paired perfectly with all of the desserts. It was VERY busy when we visited, so definitely expect a crowd, but I completely understand the hype. The space is beautiful, the pastry cases are basically works of art, and there are so many things you'll want to try that it's almost impossible to choose. Honestly, this place would be dangerous if I lived nearby because I would be here WAY too often. Absolutely worth a visit, especially if you love pastries and desserts!

The new drink edition that just been launched (Flatiron location only) is -86 degrees Celcius Dirty is amazing. The cup came out from the freezer and then the coffee and milk were poured into it. If you can drink it in 1 minute, you unlock the ice cream in it. Every dessert felt like a little work of art. The presentation is exquisite, but what stayed with me most was the taste. The flavors are delicate, beautifully balanced, and clearly created with so much thought and care. Absolutely phenomenal from presentation to the very last bite.

    Stopped by Daily Provisions to order breakfast on a Wednesday morning. There's seating indoors…read more(with low back stools) and seating out front (about four tables). I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

    I've been here a few times but today I finally came early enough to try the famed Lumberjack, a…read moreB.E.C. sandwiched between a maple cruller. It's delicious. The peppery, thick bacon and the quite sweet, icing-topped cruller are a beautiful study in contrasts. The egg was nicely runny. I will say that's it's definitely not a good on-the-go sandwich, as it falls apart easily. However, I don't think this is a great spot for coffee. I was a bit underwhelmed by my latte, which tasted more like thin drip coffee than a rich, strong espresso. I also think they could offer more sweetener options.

    The Cardamom Latte (9/10) was almost perfect. I got it with oat milk, which made it nice and nutty…read more The espresso was on the lighter side, so I wished it had a richer, stronger espresso flavor, but it was still really satisfying and not too sweet. The Almond Croissant (7/10) had an amazing flaky crust, dense interior, and crispy almonds on top. Honestly, probably the best almond croissant I've had texture-wise, but I'm not a huge fan of almond paste in the middle, which is probably just because I'm not really an almond croissant person. The Cardamom Bun (8.5/10) was the best cardamom bun I've ever had!! The bread was super soft and pillowy, almost like a dinner roll, but the outside was caramelized and had so much cardamom flavor. It was perfectly sweet and I could genuinely eat so many of these. This one made me love cardamom buns, and I'm not sure if any others will top it. Vibes were a 9.5/10. The space felt like I was in a cafe in Japan. Service was fine.

The cardamom bun is La Cabra's signature laminated cardamom bun , and the pain suisse (my personal fav) was so delicious!!!
