The sign outside says "Best Chocolate Cake" and while the double chocolate cake was incredible, I think the red velvet cake here truly takes first prize. I've never had cake so moist and fluffy! And the cream cheese frosting was tangy but sweet! They are open fairly late, so it's a great spot to stop for an after dessert sweet treat! read more

In the top 5 for worst cake I have ever been served. I will never come back because for me to have purchased two totally different slices of cake and they are both stale, that's a terrible sign. Doc's has the best cake in Brooklyn so far. read more

Disgusting bacon egg and cheese! Do not come here if you're expecting a fresh bacon egg and cheese sandwich. I purchased two and they were DISGUSTING. They tasted microwaved and the lady said yeah they are microwaved. And she couldn't do nothing about it because she's not the manager. I simply asked if I can change it for another bagel with cream cheese and she said no. Terrible customer service plus disgusting hard bagels. On top of that overpriced! So now I'm stuck with two uneaten "bacon egg and cheese, and a hard bagel with cream cheese. read more

Unfortunately this place didn't steal my heart. I was looking for a sweet treat and saw this was close. They had a ton of options of different types of cakes and pastries and the standard coffee shop drink menu. The place was cozy and eclectic and would be a great place to pop in to do some work. I ordered an almond croissant and a hot chocolate and it was not good. The hot chocolate was extremely bland. It tasted watery and the croissant just tasted like paste-there wasn't anything I enjoyed about the items. But the place is cute! Maybe the staff was new because there were a few mishaps while I was there. read more

I've been patronizing bakeshop for many years and finally had the time to review. My favorites have always been the Vanilla, Red Velvet and Chocolate Vanilla options. The slices are decently sized and the icing is thick. The cake consistency is chewy, soft and consistent. I'm not vegan, but this is one of the better options I've tried out of the few in the area at this range and quality. Great cakes. Stop by if you haven't in a while. read more

Fantastic a and creative coffee concoctions (love the Golden latte) with plenty of sweet and savory treats to complement your beverage of choice. Also, just a cool environment with lots of cool gifts, knock knacks, and plenty of seating. Free WiFi! read more

Still delicious but more gluten free options would be nice. I have been coming here for a few years and I love the GF brownie, banana bread, and peanut butter cookie. There are so many cakes and cupcakes. A few of the cakes are vegan but none are gluten free. I've been asking for this for months. A punch card for frequent customers would also be nice. read more

In Brooklyn while looking for a coffee shop with my friend, we came across Bake Shop, I figured it had to be calling for us, as there was a parking spot right in front. This place is so, so cute! It's got beautiful plants everywhere, their presentation is very eye catching. They also have some unique chocolate bars, teas and hot chocolate for sale. There is a sign outside that Bake Shop has been voted as having "the best chocolate cake" according to Food & Wine Magazine. I can't speak to this cake as I didn't try it. What I can speak to is their coffee, and that certainly didn't get any type of best award from me. I ordered a pumpkin spice latte. I asked for a small. My friend got a chai latte, also a small. They were $6 each. These came in huge cups. The cup size can be forgiven, it's what's inside that matters. All I got was a cup full of lukewarm milk. There wasn't any coffee or any pumpkin spice that I could taste at all. My friend wasn't impressed by her chai latte either. She said "it got lost in all the milk". I tried to improve mine by adding some cinnamon and cocoa powder to it. It didn't help. I paid $6, for a tall glass of milk. Despite the cute factor of Bake Shop, I don't recommend you spend your money on their coffee. read more

I forgot to post my review on this Bake Shop. I was lured in by a sign that said "World's best Chocolate Cake" I'm a sucker for chocolate so I found myself going inside for a slice to see if this sign upholds some sort of truth. I'd like to put this out there that my 3 stars are for the customer service, which happened to be superb and they're very friendly and have a variety of options including vegan options, but the sign did not live up to my expectations. The cakes are extremely dry, more drier than I thought it'll be. I wonder how long they've been sitting there? This dryness couldn't be a result of some freshly baked cake, could it? I sure hope not. I had a vanilla funfetti slice which was extremely dry, I just couldn't see myself finishing it. The chocolate cake was also very very dry and taste much like buttercream. I didn't get a chocolate satisfaction from it at all. Overall I was not impressed! The cake is no where near the "best chocolate cake" I've had better. The cookies were like scones and I didn't get much of a chocolate chunk cookie vibe from it. read more

So I definitely was deceived by all the good reviews and normally I would try a place a couple times to write a low review unless the service was really bad but who is actually eating the desserts here?? I had the blackout chocolate cupcake and it was one of the most driest cupcake I've ever had. Honestly I could kind tell it was dry just by walking in the place but the frosting looked really good. Pros: the cupcake had a lot of frosty and it was sweet. They had quite a few selections for desserts when it comes to options. Also unlike many Bushwick establishments, it's not cash only. Thank goodness Cons: like I stated before, the cupcake was extremely dry. I kept taking a bite hoping it would change but ultimately I threw it out. Something I rarely do with food. Overall, idk maybe the other desserts aren't dry but the other reviews says other wise. read more

This place is such a gem. Perfect mixture of plants and baked goods as well as zen finds with the hand made incense and candles. I love it here We got the strawberry shortcake cupcake, delicious. There is a vegan option too and coffee well made! Prices aren't crazy and the service is real good and fast! Definitely a must to visit. Also the area is very great to just explore in. read more

WOW the vegan GF chocolate and vanilla cake is one of the best I've ever had (and I'm a huge critic). The slices are big and decadent. They have a lot of vegan dessert items and I'm excited to check out next time. read more

Great placed for baked goods! And I really like the vibe here. My date picked up the carrot cake, the chocolate black-out cake, and the strawberry short-cake for dessert for my dinner. It was the perfect trio, and while all 3 desserts were delicious my favorite by far was the strawberry shortcake. There were real strawberries actually baked into the cake, it was simply amazing. I did feel that the cakes could've used a bit of a higher frosting to cake ratio but the flavor and freshness were there. This place would be a great choice for all your big-festivity cake needs. read more

This place is so beautiful! As soon as you walk inside you are surrounded by plants (for sale) and an assortment of baked goods at their counter. Cakes, cookies, cupcakes and assorted bars. I thought it was a little ballsy to have all the pastries displayed on their counter in the time of COVID but they do have a glass divider. I ordered a vanilla cupcake and raspberry bar. The total came out to close to $8. The cupcake was standard, not too dry or sweet and had a dollop of heavy frosting on the top of it. The raspberry bar was basically with a butter-based crumble to sandwich around fruit jam in the middle. I didn't order any drinks but they have a wide variety of espresso drinks and tea. Bottom line: If you're looking for a nice place to pop in quickly, grab a pastry and a coffee--this is a great place. If you're not into high prices and hipster-made coffee this (and maybe north Brooklyn?) are not for you. But if you don't mind spending a little more, this is a great place to stop in! read more

So I'm not vegan, and didn't realize that this place is vegan. Regardless, I had the empanadas which were way too pricy. It got pretty busy while I was there and we waited a while for our food. The ambiance is fine, I don't think I'll be going back. read more

This place is adorable! If i had to simply describe it then its artsy coffee shop that provides the best between happy and informed. Example given to make my point is that they sell coffee, baked goods, and plantable cards . Didn't even know such a thing existed! No outdoor seating but they did have a bench so if you need a quick seat to sip and bite then you can do so in peace. I had something simple but definitely left an impact. I had the iced chai tea latte and butter croissant. I am a secret but not so secret lover of all things buttery and flaky. These crossaints were so good. The flakiness was perfect and airy. I am so happy i stopped by this coffee shop as a morning pick me up. I will be back soon! read more

I've visited Bakeshop (aka Little Cupcake Bakeshop) in Bushwick for the first time and my experience was really odd. I felt uncomfortable the entire time because 2 of the workers were watching me. I'm afraid my first visit will be my last. First, the food: I ordered a slice of vanilla cake ($7.75). It was insanely dry and I can't believe they sell their cakes in such a state. I also ordered a single serving of cheesecake ($7.50) which was okay but nothing amazing. The prices are not listed any where in the open. I love supporting small local businesses and I expect their prices to be high but there is no justification for what they charge given the quality of their food. Second, their customer service: As soon as I came in and until the time I left, I was stared down by the chick who was making drinks and the chick at the register. Since nothing is listed, you have to go to the counter or the refrigerator to see what is available. Their eyes followed me wherever I went! The other workers looked at me once or twice and carried on with their business but the other two women watched everything I did. I really wanted to check out the candles and other goods that they sell but I felt so uncomfortable that I just kept my place in line after figuring out what I wanted to order. When I placed my items in my shooper bag, the cashier lady grabbed the tip jar, with eyes locked on me, and said "let me get this out of here. I can't wait to leave".... huh??????????? Maybe they admired my hair? Maybe they liked my coat? I have no idea why they were staring at me. There was also a white couple there that was causing a scene by literally biting and pinching each other but the women paid little attention to them. I don't want to assume anything about these women and why they were staring because that isn't fair to them (I'm black, they aren't, and the store is near "the hood")... bottom line, I felt extremely uncomfortable during my first visit. I don't think I will return. Two stars because I like the look of the place but unfortunately their customer service needs work. read more

I think I've found my favorite bakery in Brooklyn. They make everything in store, throughout the day, which leaves the entire shop smelling lovely! Although the baked goods display case slowly emptied during our time there, by the time we left, they had brought out two newly iced cakes! My friend and I split a slice of the Brooklyn Blackout chocolate cake - which they advertise as the best chocolate cake in the US - and boy did we enjoy it! Six dollars may seem a little hefty for one slice of cake, but they are really generous with their slices. We had a light lunch and couldn't even finish the full slice between the two of us!! (The rest of it is sitting in my fridge right now). Before we left, I also picked up a potato and egg quiche ($4), kale and korn knish ($5), and a homemade sesame bagel ($2). The Brooklyn Blackout cupcake was for a friend's belated birthday treat. So far, I've only had the bagel for breakfast. I prepared it with some ham, gouda, and avocado, and it was BOMB. The bagel was thinner than usual, which made me feel a little less guilty for eating the whole thing in one serving, and although it was just sesame, actually tasted like an everything bagel. Um, yaaaaas! No more poppy seeds stuck in my teeth! I think I'll be back this weekend just to stock up on a few more.. As for drinks, they serve illy coffee, which makes for a nice latte. There is plenty of seating - communal and private. There is no internet access that I am aware of, but if you bring a good book with you, this shouldn't be a problem. They also play decent music for such a hipster dipster place. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon. Place was relatively crowded. We got the carrot cake and cheesecake to-go. The carrot cake was very sweet and the cream cheese frosting tasted a little too artificial for me. The texture of the cake was very good. The cheesecake is very good. I wish there was more graham cracker crust but they really nailed the smoothness of the cream cheese. Overall, it's an enjoyable place but not really somewhere I'd go out of my way to go to. read more

This place is not bad - but I gave it 4 stars because the coffee is always burned. I usually go there just for something sweet, but I'd really only recommend the cheesecake or the banana pudding. Other things are hit or miss. It's not my go-to spot, but it has a nice atmosphere and my experience with the staff has been positive. Overall, I wish they would improve their coffee and focus on making more quality sweets versus having a bunch of options that lack quality. read more

Did anybody else know that this is a cooler, hipster version of Little Cupcake Bakeshop and it's been here for 3 months? They're so cool they dropped "little cupcake" from their name, but they still do sell the amazing Brooklyn Blackout Cake as well as a few of their other flavors (also in cupcake form), along with cookies and brownies. One of the major differences here from the other locations aside from the funkier decor and atmosphere is that they also have savory food. In fact, the bagels are actually pretty amazing. Try them plain, or in pizza bagel form, or if you're on the go, they have "bagel rolls", which are smaller versions already filled with cream cheese. The Everything and Sesame bagels we tried, which are practically completely covered in seeds, were as good as, if not better than most bagel shops. This is a great spot in a perfect location for killing time while waiting for a table at nearby Roberta's, or for a quick breakfast or delicious dessert. read more

Bake Shop is one of my local go to bakeries. Although it can't compare to their Brooklyn Blackout Cake, the Vegan Gluten Free Chocolate Cake is still a tasty treat. It costs $8. My only complaint about Bake Shop is that their menu does not list prices for their baked sweets. Prices are, however, listed for their coffee and other food items. Nonetheless, they still deserve 5 stars based off the quality of their food and community outreach. They have a free food refrigerator, which is great--especially for all the financial suffering and food insecurity in the community. read more

I have been to this business three times and each time has been a big disappointment. One time I ordered their vegan burrito which turns out to be frozen and just microwaved. When the cashier gave me my food it was still half frozen and when I brought it back she rudely responded that "we just microwave them". Another time I asked the cashier for the benefits of their health teas and they responded that they had no idea as if I was dumb to even ask. Lastly, I ordered their carrot lox bagel and they gave me a single slice of carrot that covered 1/3 of the entire bagel for nearly $10. This place is a scam. read more

I just read a similar review posted three hours ago so I realize that I am not the crazy one. Was excited to visit this bake shop as I live in the area for a year and never been inside. Came into the store, said hello and did not hear anything back. Placed my order with the most impolite girl ever. She slammed the box on the counter and whispered " have a good one " while leaving. Cake was good but will never be back. Took a picture of her so owners can realize she is a problem. read more

When you pass a cafe that has a sign that says "Best Chocolate Cake in NY - Food & Wine", you are going to go in and try that chocolate cake. Bake shop is a cute, but roomy cafe that along with chocolate cake serves a good selection of coffee, baked goods, lunch options and tea. Their case of pastries was extensive with different quick breads, cupcakes, cookies, and cakes. I got the Brooklyn Black Out (chocolate cake) cupcake and a tea. It was one of the better chocolate cupcakes I have ever had so I recommend. They also have a nice selection of vegan and/or gluten free treats and their red velvet cake is made without food coloring also looked amazing. read more
