    Chicken Empanada.
    Emma G.

    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.

    So rude, unbelievable!

    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.

    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.

    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!

Warmed my heart!! Check them out! So much to choose from look for yourself! && the pastries were so damn good soft chewy sweet didn't feel gf to me. Enjoy!

    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.

    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.

    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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
