While I was heading to the train station on a Citi Bike, I realized there was a bakery. I happen to be on the hunt for some cake to enjoy on the train back to Philadelphia. So I whipped my bike around, and headed inside. The exterior of the store is small and cute. I loved seeing everything in the window. Great advertising. The name itself also made us giggle. There were a few others walking by and they had a giggle too. Clever for sure. Really gets people looking. Once inside there were two men working. I think it was close to closing because they were wrapping things up. But, they were willing to help us place our order and get us situated. They were kind and helpful. I opted for a chocolate base cupcake, red velvet, and funfetti. Funfetti was my favorite! The cake was moist and the icing was nice and sugary. I prefer a sugary icing. The chocolate cupcake was rich in flavor. I absolutely loved the cupcakes. Simple with a little pizazz. The cost was about $4+ for each cupcake. I think that is on point and pretty reasonable. It is comparable to other bakeries in NY and other states. I'd definitely return to grab some more on my next trip. read more

Once I discovered that there was a bakery within 10 blocks of my job with Booty in the name, I had to investigate. I came by here on Thursday for a light lunch and to pick up some pastries for my co-workers. This involved an eventful walk down 8th Avenue highlighted by an SVU set nearby; I of course paused for a few minutes to try to find Mariska but was unsuccessful. Anyway. Not much of a negative, but I WAS a little surprised that that the back of the space wasn't as customer friendly - there's a lot of inventory stacked up, and it's kind of drab. And maybe that's partially because by definition, the front and exterior is VERY much not drab at all - as you'd expect, there's a lot of rainbow colors and cartoon depictions of a guy with his rump sticking out. When you have a theme, you have a theme. But if they have the ability, I'd recommend spiffing up the back area, because if it had been more hospitable I would have taken advantage of it. Since I was pretty hungry, I decided to get an empanada (initially I went with beef but the guy behind the counter recommended chicken since it was fresher and made that day - points for and against there. Appreciate the honesty and pivot (and it WAS fresh), but not great that there are not-fresh empanadas from the prior day prominently displayed. Random food trucks around the city shouldn't have a noticeable edge on a bakery. The empanada was tasty and flavorful, but for the price was actually pretty expensive, and I say that as someone who's grown pretty desensitized to NYC prices. It cost about $5 and I got literally three bites out of it. It should be at least 50% bigger than it is. I also got a guava turnover, which was decent as well. Guava is one of my faves and to me a very underrated filling/flavor, so I'm always glad to see it getting its due. The top of the turnover had sugar granules on it (also something I tend to like for both texture and taste reasons), but it was a little too much - it made the pastry too sugary which I know is a strange complaint for someone who knowingly walked into a bakery. The cupcakes and cookies I got were warmly received by my colleagues and demolished within an hour or two (I got a variety of each), so that's also another positive. I had a hunk of the M&M cookie on my way back, which was slightly undercooked, just the way I liked it. The gentleman who assisted me was perfectly nice (and the chicken empanada recommend is a big selling point) and offered up suggestions on the best options for the variety pack we collated. My only real issue is he didn't provide disclaimers about the bag fees - he offered to put everything in a bag (because why wouldn't you?) only for me to find out when I got rung up that I was charged $0.25 per bag. Now, that's not going to break me but that's more of a principal thing. Tell people when you're assessing additional charges for the choices they're making. Left a bad taste in my mouth that the guava wasn't able to totally fix. I'm probably not coming back here for a big order, nor for an actual meal (even a light one, since I ended up having to buy an emergency hot dog on my way back to the office to fill me up a little more). A random pastry on my travels through Chelsea? Sure. But I think there are better price points out there, strange as that is to say in this inflationary environment. Cool name though. read more

Big Booty Bread - Chicken Empanada. - Bakeries Near Me - New York, New York

1 star, less if possible. As longtime customers of Big Booty Bread Co., my friend and I were deeply shocked and disappointed by the treatment we received during our recent visit. We've always appreciated the café for celebrating Latin American culture--but ironically, we were met with hostility simply for speaking Spanish. When my friend placed our order in Spanish, the woman behind the counter immediately shouted, "I don't speak Spanish," and became aggressively rude. She threw our order on the counter and continued yelling at us, creating an incredibly uncomfortable atmosphere. The situation escalated as we were leaving, when she loudly--and falsely--accused us of using a slur, in front of another customer who witnessed the entire thing and was visibly stunned. We left feeling humiliated and completely unwelcome. It's appalling to be treated this way, especially in a business that claims to celebrate Latin American heritage. No one should face aggression for speaking their native language. I sincerely hope the management addresses this woman unacceptable behavior and ensures all customers are treated with respect. P.S. I'll miss the "cortado" and the delicious "pan de bono" but luckily there are other places with better service. read more

I'm a snob for really good croissants. Big Booty has THE BEST most authentic French croissants in town. The perfect match of crunchy surface and buttery interior. A little salty butter and some good coffee...shut your eyes....and you're in Paris. read more

Stopped by Big Booty Bread and tried the red velvet cookie--absolutely delicious and worth the $5. The bakery has a great selection of pastries, drinks, and desserts, so there's definitely something for everyone. Cozy spot and definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. read more

No pictures unfortunately because they are always consumed so quickly but this is right near us and we LOVE going for their big booty buns. They're soft and doughy on the inside, with a filling of choice (guava, apple, strawberry, dulce), and crunchy on the outside with a sprinkling of granulated sugar. It's the most comforting morning treat and never too sweet. Do me a favor and warm them lightly before having them. I've also tried the cupcakes they're famous for but those were nothing to write home about. Cappuchino is strong and decently priced for the area. Otherwise, the shop has some seating, the ambience is decent but there's loud music, and service is never bad. Overall, a fave neighborhood spot for us. read more

I just discovered their gluten free, banana and blueberry muffins. OMG they are the best! They have so many interesting, delicious deserts which I take to go. It's not the best environment for hanging out. Years ago when they first opened we sat there, but I don't know what happened. read more

Possibly the best pecan pie I have ever tasted: 7 minutes at 300 degrees, lightly tented aluminum foil... the crust is perfectly light and flaky, the filling ooey gooey, and the pecans sweet and chewy. I will be back! read more

Rude. Pastries in a small plastic bag hand tied. Rudely handing it to me. I asked for a bag... "We have no bag". Huh? What did the previous customer just got? Is it because we are Asians? Staff needs to be more courteous read more

I've had this place on my list for a while, and am very happy I came out this time! I came here to try the cheese rock or pan de yuca - so chewy and savory. Staff was incredibly friendly and patient, and I will definitely be returning to try some other Columbian pastries! read more

Let me start off by saying that I love cupcakes and I'm very picky when it comes to cupcakes. I recently discovered Big Booty Bread and it is hands down my favorite cupcake spot in the entire city. I have been there about ~5 times (as of today) and the taste / quality has been so consistent, which is very hard to achieve when it comes to bakeries and baked goods in general. I've never once gotten a dry or stale cupcake from Big Booty Bread!! The cupcakes do not have a "processed" taste and I don't feel full or heavy after eating one (or two). The cupcake I got today had a bite sized cookie on top which was amazing -- so now I'm dying to try their cookies! I highly recommend this bakery! read more

chocolate chip cookie, beef empanada- maybe better than empanada mama! and they make egg custard tarts!

Awesome little bakery. Banana bread was done just right. Cookies were great and the owner is super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if in the area. read more

Place smells funky. Creepy staff. And the food looks delicious, but isn't so much at all.

Cute little shop in the heart of Chelsea. Tried the cookie cupcake but was not a fan. Frosting was overly heavy and hard. I liked the concept of it, but I guess the frosting did not consider the extra sweetness from the cookie itself. read more

Absolutely loved this place! their cookies are TO DIE FOR-- the salted caramel, s'mores, and whichever cookie that has pretzels in it were all SO good! I came back to this bakery multiple times in my trip! Love the vibe looking in from the street, everything looked delicious!! Slay up! read more

I was able to get three cupcakes at a discounted price. The cupcakes were delicious. However they are too expensive. I'd give this place 4 stars if they were cheaper. Hard to justify their price tag imo. They are good but nothing special. read more

Big bootie bakery seemed like a gimmicky joke every time I would pass by it and see the funny sign but then I decided to try it. On my first visit I got a chocolate marshmallow cupcake. The cupcake was disappointing as the chocolate part was dry and lacking flavor. My opinion changed after my 2nd visit when I tried their guava pastry, it was flaky and stuffed with delicious guava. After that my friend and I have returned many times and my absolute favorite is the chocolate brownie. The brownie is absolute perfection, it's so good that I can myself getting a big bootie/belly since it's so addicting. read more

The watermelon mint lemonade is a MUST! We walked over 12,000 steps on a layover in NYC and were craving a pucker up lemonade in the warm sunshine and found this spot online. It was worth another mile walk to try out the lemonade which was sweet and tart and refreshingly delightful on every sip. My only wish would have been a tad less ice as the ice took up most room in the cup. Would return for sure for this delicious beverage. read more

Colorful little bakery and cafe with a Latin flair in their menu. I'm with it. The tie-dye lover in me was having a blast enjoying their walls and decoration. I got a large coffee with almond milk and split a beef empanada with a friend. Both were subpar. The coffee was underwhelming in taste and quality, and the empanada was greasy, but neither was bad, per se. It's good comfort food. They have a huge range of dessert that looked fantastic, and service was quick! Come by to satisfy a sweet tooth craving and enjoy the art. read more

I went there during the Holidays. My previous experiences at Big Booty have always been positive, but unfortunately, this time was different. I ordered and paid for an almond milk chai latte, an espresso, and a cinnamon roll. The espresso was mediocre, and the cinnamon roll was clearly not fresh. It seemed like the lady burnt the pastry in the oven to make it appear fresh, but it ended up so dry that we couldn't eat it. The worst part was the almond milk chai latte. When it was ready, she called me to pick up an OAT milk chai latte. I respectfully said I had ordered almond milk and she replied, very annoyed, that she had only oat milk. When I placed my order, she repeated "almond milk" after me, never mentioning oat milk. I said it was fine, but then I tasted the most horrible, watery, and disappointing cup of latte I've ever had. I left it all and told her I couldn't drink it. She continued watching her phone and told me to leave it there! When my husband tried to use the restroom, she stopped him, saying he couldn't use it. My husband saw that she had left her luggage and personal stuff in the toilet! I will never go there again if I see that lady, but I'll be glad to return when the other nice guy is working.

I was walking towards the train station and saw this cool bakery and stopped to drool at their baked goods in the window. I just had an amazing lunch and decided to buy a few goodies. Everything looked soo good in the window and I wanted to decide what I wanted before I went inside. However, when I walked inside I saw more goodies on the counter. LOL It's a very small bakery that you order stuff to go. The young lady behind the counter was very sweet and patient as she answered a few questions I had. I finally decided to get the banana loaf cake which I seem to be enjoying more these days. I also got the oatmeal raisin cookie. The banana loaf was tasty and not too sweet. It was moist and didn't break apart when I took that first bite. LOL It was very fulfilling with a cup of hot tea that evening. The next day I slaughtered my cookie which tasted better than my banana loaf. It was more sugary and hit those sugar cravings I love. This is definitely a spot I will return to and check out some other items. read more

I've walked past Big Booty Bread dozens of times with no desire to set foot in & explore their baked goods selection. However, a few weeks ago, my sweet tooth overpowered my gut instinct to stay away. Big Fat Mistake. The impatient female staffer quickly ran off their cupcake flavors, which weren't labeled. She gave my companion the wrong cupcake & was resentful when we asked for the correct one. What adult acts like this at work? Looks like Big Booty Bread hires people with Big Bootsie Attitudes. The red velvet cupcake wasn't worth the money I paid; though the cream cheese frosting was decent, the cake was dry & crumbly. Big Time Waster. read more

I passed by Big Booty Bread and stepped in on a whim. I am glad that I did because I was able to try out some Columbian specialties. I got the pan de yuca/cheese rock in bacon and herb cheese flavor. I also got the bono relleno/guava pocket. I definitely enjoyed the cheese rocks more. It had a nice density to it and I loved the cheesiness. It also helped that I ate it when I was super hungry. The guava pocket wasn't too much to my liking. It was kind of dry--which I am guessing is probably supposed to be that way based on the ingredients. While the guava did taste like guava, it was unfortunately very, very sweet. Too sweet for me. I had to scoop some out to eat the rest of the pastry. But! I bet many of those with a sweet tooth will enjoy it more than me. Other things of note... Big Booty Bread is a small shop that only allows you to purchase for take-out. There is a minimum credit card charge, too. Be prepared if you plan on visiting! read more

The second you walk through the door you are greeted with incredible aroma and you know you're buying something! They bake fresh goods daily and the delicious smell is the proof of that. They have savory empanadas, muffins, turnovers, brownie...you name it! Their very friendly staff offered to warm the empanada up as well asked which sauces I wanted. Great service! The place is small but they have proper protection and sanitizing protocols in place so I felt safe while at their establishment read more

If the name doesn't stand out to you then I don't know what will! Nevertheless, it's a small bakery that lives up to its name. I walked in for one muffin and walked out with a Red Velvet cookie and a Cheesecake Brownie. It smelled better than any bakery I have been in. The Red Velvet cookie melted in my mouth. It slightly felt like falling in love. You may think that's a little over the top way of expressing it but what else can you expect from a Big Booty Bakery? The richness of the Cheesecake Brownie felt luxurious and well worth the $3.25. Too many of these and we will ALL end up with a Donk. I also saw that they had loose leaf tea, of a nice variety such as Roobios. I walked in knowing my Matcha Peppermint Green Tea was waiting for me. I try to be healthy but this is certainly a nice treat worthy of splurging on. read more

Who can resist checking out some "Big Booty" and "Hot Buns"? Such a great catchy name! There was a variety of cupcakes flavors, brownies, cookies and other sweets to choose from. We decided to try the triple chocolate cookie which was really good. The staff was very friendly and asked if we would like to have it warm up. It sounded great to have a warm cookie. Although the chocolate actually melted a bit, the cookie was delicious and not overly sweet. There were some seats in the back along the wall. Would love to try the velvet cookie next time. read more

I came in here on a Saturday afternoon to look for some Colombian specialties. They make empanadas as well as other baked delicacies like pandebono (cheese bread). They seemed super busy with custom cakes and other items, so I got a couple pandebono. They were good, but not great, a bit overcooked. I don't know if I would come here again for Colombian stuff, but their cakes looked very good. I would return to try stuff with frosting on it. :) read more

I'll admit, I only stopped because there was a sign challenging you to come in & try the worst cupcake ever! Apparently, somebody really didn't like it & trashed them on social media.

I can always rely on Big Booty Co for a delicious cupcake and a good laugh at the signature logo. The cupcakes are colorfully decorated, and are made of moist cake and flavorful frosting that's rich yet light enough not to overwhelm the bite. I was also super excited to try their cheese rock (pan de yuca) since it reminded me of pao de queijo, and it didn't disappoint. Perfectly cheesy and wonderfully chewy in the middle, it was a fantastically filling snack. read more

On a mission to try as many bakeries in NYC as I can and Big Booty Bread made the list!
