Welcome Home -- Where the Pastries Are Divine and the Hospitality Is a Performance Art Piece…read more Let me open with an ode: the croissants here are not merely pastries. They are flaky, buttery miracles -- the kind that make you briefly reconsider your life choices and wonder if you've been wasting your mornings everywhere else. The cardamom pastry deserves its own Wikipedia page, possibly a candle in its honor. The sourdough would win awards in cities that actually take bread seriously. I have been a loyal regular, cheerfully handing over roughly twenty dollars a week for these baked wonders, which -- despite being priced as though they were baked by elves in a heritage grain monastery -- are absolutely, defiantly worth it. And then came the incident. I stepped up to the counter, a loyal customer flush with goodwill and approximately $14 in pastry intentions, and made what I believed to be a reasonable, even virtuous, request: "Could you please put both pastries in one bag?" My motivation was ecological. Save paper. Small act, clean conscience. A feel-good moment for everyone involved. Co-owner Isa Steyer regarded me with the expression of someone who had just watched me attempt to mix a Bordeaux with a sports drink. "The cardamom and croissant," she informed me gravely, "don't go together." I want to be clear: she was not concerned about flavor contamination, structural pastry integrity, or some ancient baking covenant I'd inadvertently violated. She was concerned about the concept. The philosophy of the bag. I explained, with the measured calm of a man who simply wants to carry his breakfast home without a doctoral dissertation intervening, that I was going to eat them. Separately. With my own mouth. In the privacy of my own home. She drew herself up and delivered what I can only describe as a manifesto: "Well -- I'm SERVING them." Reader, she was protecting the pastries from each other. I had unwittingly stumbled into a sensory conflict that only she could perceive. The croissant, apparently, has feelings. The cardamom, dignity. And together in a paper bag for the eleven-minute walk home? Unthinkable. A scandal. Perhaps illegal in certain cantons. Funny as this sounds in hindsight -- and believe me, it took a full croissant's worth of cooling down to get there -- it was not amusing in the moment. Ms. Steyer's manner was genuinely condescending, and nothing I said or did had warranted it. I've spent years in the service industry myself. I understand the grind. I understand difficult customers. I was not one of them. Wanting a single bag is not a culinary crime. It is barely even a preference. There is something quietly absurd about being made to feel like a philistine by your breakfast. And yet -- here we are. P.S. I still go. Of course I still go. Do not be naive. I grew up in Germany. My relationship with good bread is not casual -- it is ancestral, almost spiritual, and frankly non-negotiable. The occasional humorless, vaguely territorial moment behind the counter is simply part of the experience now, like paying for parking or waiting for a table. I let it roll off my back. Because the moment that butter croissant hits -- warm, laminated to perfection, shattering at exactly the right angle -- all philosophical disputes evaporate instantly. That said, I've since learned that my bag incident may be the least of it. There are accounts of Ms. Steyer directing real rudeness at Black and Brown customers -- people from the very community this bakery has planted itself in. That's worth sitting with. This neighborhood has a history that predates the sourdough, the carefully curated aesthetic, and everyone who arrived recently to enjoy both. Businesses that come into historically Black communities don't inherit those streets -- they're guests in them, and should carry themselves accordingly. Artisanal excellence is not a substitute for basic respect, and it certainly isn't a pass. The croissants remain extraordinary. But a bakery is also its owners, and that part deserves scrutiny. Na Mean?

I recently went to an amazing coffee shop in SoHo and got 2 specialty lattes and it cost me $20 (with tip) so you can see how overpriced this place is considering the location, quantity and quality of drinks. I mean I didn't realize the shot of espresso and cold foam were extras until I was about to pay and it was too embarrassing to go back because they had already started preparing my drink. The guy on the counter kept trying to convince me to add the espresso shot and that it will taste so good but my drink did not have any taste of espresso whatsoever. The ube foam also didn't taste like Ube at all. The entire drink just tasted more like a black sesame milk shake. This drink was 15 dollars too expensive.

The olive focaccia in particular was excellent: crispy on the outside, soft and airy inside, and packed with flavor. They also rotate other flavored foccacias that come out closer to lunch, which honestly gives you a reason to come back later in the day. The almond croissant was solid too, flaky and well-balanced without being overly sweet. They also sell giant chocolate chip cookies the size of your face- cool for the wow factor, and it's a 3.5/5 for flavor and texture- I wouldn't get again. The "raisin croissant" was a letdown. It's really more like soft swirled bread than an actual croissant, so adjust expectations accordingly. They also have a raspberry-filled croissant if you like filled breads. Seating inside is very limited- basically just a tiny high-top situation. Warning, it gets pretty busy on weekend mornings (line crawls down the block sometimes!).

Finally went in - Food was excellent. I was met with such warmth by the staff and met the cashier and I believe the owner, Sean, and his crew Chef Ricky and Barista Sil. Had a lovely conversation with each of the members just very naturally and was so pleased by how good all the food was. I got a cardamom bun, I believe a Tunisian egg salad sandwich, a ginger snap cookie, and an iced oat Matcha. Left the bakery to have a taste to my morning haul. This cardamom bun was SEXY- literally the best I've ever tasted in my life... Genuinely glad to be alive today to experience that bun so balanced- sweet and savory, hardy, yet fluffy all in one. The egg salad sandwich was also excellent and super filling - such great contrast and flavoring from the crisped bread to the egg salad itself. Ginger snap cookie was freaking delicious and so soft. And the iced matcha was very interesting and had this unique tangy flavor, but I actually enjoyed with simple syrup, which I think balanced out the tang. I also learned about a pretty groovy speakeasy that the bakery leads to, so I definitely look forward to checking that out one of these weekends. Definitely look forward to coming back!

We ordered the Salad Toast with Tuna and Mashed Potatoes ($12.75) and Chicken Floss with Ham Egg and Cheese ($11.75). I like how the sandwiches are cut in half, so it's perfect for sharing. They are so crunchy from the panini maker which nicely holds all the filling together. There is also lots of filling inside that works so well. Such a great meal to enjoy while working or at a picnic over at the pier and parks nearby. We also got some drinks to pair with as I had the Matcha Coconut ($7.75) while my friend had the Orange Americano ($6.75). For an extra $1, you can upgrade to a large size.
