The neverending quest to identify the top chocolate chip cookies in NYC took me to Hani's. You know a spot is trendy when it's got the setup for a queue outside. At least when I went, the line was minimal, moved briskly, and didn't snake past the door. Of course I knew what I wanted but the other offerings were quite tempting, such as the carrot cake, honey cake, and cinnamon rolls. Another time! The triple chocolate chunk cookie was a distressing $8. But! It was gigantic which was comforting. Luckily for me, the white chocolate was kept to a minimum. Overall, there were oodles of chocolate, I approve! Since the inside of Hani's was too packed and hectic, I opted for a nearby park bench where I calmly devoured half the cookie. Hey, two servings! A $4 cookie is way more palatable. P.S. Just discovered this helpful tip on my receipt: p.s. it's pronounced "honey's" read more

Don't get me wrong- every single pastry in this shop is an absolute KNOCK OUT!!! Definitely in the pricier side, but the food is incredible, so I don't mind paying that much. Service is always warm and inviting. The staff is incredible!! Seating is limited, but it's a great, cozy energy if you can snag a seat. However - their jumble jam matcha latte is one of the worst drinks I've ever had. I almost always finish my matcha drinks - no matter how watered down or over flavored they are, but I couldn't stomach this one. Luckily it's a seasonal drink, but yeah... Definitely proceed with caution on that one.... read more

Been wanting to visit this bakery for months since it went viral on social media and finally made it! I know their pastry chef used to work at Gramercy Tavern so I had some high expectations. There was a slight line to get in but it was well organized and moved relatively quickly. I knew they were known for their cinnamon roll, cookie, and cakes so I knew I had to get some of those. We decided on the cinnamon roll and their honey cake. The cinnamon roll was so soft with a niche cinnamon paste inside and an ooey gooey cream cheese icing on top. I usually hate cream cheese icing and I liked how this one wasn't cream cheese heavy so it wasn't too tangy. The honey cake was super moist and tasted like those teddy graham cookies. It was a little bit too sweet for me but my friend loved it. Overall a great place for dessert but docking the star because these two items were a total of $22 which is a bit pricey! read more

Hands down best cheesecake I ever had in NYC or anywhere else for that matter. Hani's straddles between the East Village and NoHo in the Cooper Union area a few blocks from good ole St. Marks. There is always a line outside on the weekends, so if you don't want to wait, go during the week or early. I've only come here for the cheesecake, nothing else. It is bomb! The ratios are just right and it's almost orgasmic. Grab a slice and stroll toward Washington Square Park and enjoy the cake with a latte. The staff is always friendly and courteous, they don't act like the other pre Madonna assholes you see in the area. The seating area is actually pretty chill, I've had a cake by the bar before and there can be some prime people watching during prime time. Will continue to check it out for their cheesecake and maybe one day I'll try something else.. read more

The maple sea salt latte was really good. I had it with oat milk. They do not have soy milk as an option. The seating was limited, but able to get one after waiting a little bit. They went out of cinnamon buns and other items pretty early. Would have liked to try more things if they were available after 2:30 PM. But things go fast. read more

Note: Their menu, outside of a couple of offerings, changes pretty frequently or changes up the ingredients, so the pastries I got and liked might not be the same pastries. I had first tried this tasty bakery's products back at Eater Off Menu, which was just about a year ago, back in September. They were giving large slices of their famous Carrot Cake, which was very tasty. Compared to most, the buttercream was better, as it was silky, and it was slightly differently spiced than a typical carrot cake. I slightly preferred the texture and flavor of the more traditional Lloyd's, but it was a fun rendition. The other time was a few months ago, as per many of my other recent reviews. There was a bit of a line with plenty of people going in and sitting down, while others like me and others who I was with were taking stuff to go. One of the owners, Miro Uskoković, was outside and greeting customers, and he seemed very friendly from the short interaction I had with him. I ordered two pastries to go, a signature and something seasonal that I was interested in. The signature pastry I got was the $7.50 Pistachio Halva Rice Krispie/Crispy Treat. By comparison to a typical rice crispy, it was a bit denser, and I liked how chewy it was. There was a bit of nuttiness from both of the ingredients, with some pistachios studding the outside as well. Outside of the nuttiness, I appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet. Overall, I liked it a lot, and if the lines weren't super long, I would probably stop in more often for this as a large snack to take home. The other pastry was a Sour Cherry Coffee Cake, with nutty oat streusel and mahleb for $6. Like the other dessert, it was lightly sweet, with the pastry being soft. The oats were slightly crisp with some nuttiness and a mix of interesting spices, presumably also from the mahleb. There was plenty of sour cherry inside to balance out the spices and add more texture. Overall, I preferred this. I can see why people like this place a lot. It's a bit pricier, but they make fun, tasty spins on your typical pastry, and I don't find the prices too egregious compared to some other spots. read more

Hani's Bakery is a popular bakery selling cookies, cakes, and more. It was pretty packed when I arrived, with the line going outside. The workers are really friendly, though. There is seating inside but that gets taken quick. They are known for their chocolate chip cookie, cinnamon roll, and carrot cake. But they also sell savory sandwiches here. We got their Triple Chocolate Chunk Cookie. It was pretty huge in size which worked out in my group's favor as we all got to take a bite. The salt flakes complimented the cookie well. I was pleasantly surprised at how it was not too chocolatey, despite being called a "triple chocolate" cookie. The cookie itself was also fairly thin so the edges were crispy, which I liked. I would like to come back to try their carrot cake or sandwiches! read more

Everything at Hanni's looked SO GOOD, it was hard to choose what to get! After asking for recs from the barista, I ended up having the Strawberry Passionfruit Croissant, Chocolate chip cookie, and maple sea salt latte. The strawberry passion fruit croissant was my favorite! The tartness of the passion fruit filling and sweetness of the strawberries balanced each other well. I love a thin chocolate chip cookie and the sea salt sprinkled on top was a nice touch. The latte was yummy and the cold foam was AMAZING. They have some booth and bar seating to dine in. read more

Great spot for desserts & high quality iced coffee! There were so many choices from desserts to sandwiches to drinks. We got the following to try: 1) triple chocolate chunk cookie, 2) pistachio raspberry rose tea scone, 3) carrot cake, 4) berry elderflower shortcake, 5) iced coffee, 6) cherry yuzu expresso cloud drink. Triple chocolate chunk cookie - WOW! This item was one of my favs from here & it was delicious. The cookie was crunchy, soft&chewy, sweet and salty. This was a high quality chocolate chip cookie. I would reorder this! Don't let the ginormous size fool you. It tasted even better the next day. Pistachio raspberry rose tea scone - beautifully made but it didn't taste like a scone but felt like a corn bread after awhile. The top part tasted like raspberry jam which was tart (didn't really taste the rose or tea part) and the "scone" part I did taste the pistachio. This dessert was not that sweet, tasted tart and nutty. Happy to try this but I would try something else. Carrot cake was their best seller - The carrot cake was high quality and super soft. The cream was very delicious but after awhile I got full very quickly. They added some salt to the carrot cake so it was different for me. I lovveee carrot cakes as it is one of my favorites but I think I will stick with one with no salt in it. Berry elderflower shortcake - I thought it was a strawberry shortcake at first. But this item was another favorite here. Super soft, delicious, with the right amount of sweetness. Iced coffee was excellent quality & complemented the desserts well. The cherry yuzu expresso cloud was good and tasty but I preferred the iced coffee. Friendly staff and fast service. There is seating inside but it is limited & it is first come first serve (self service). You have to line up and wait till someone leaves to sit. read more

After 400 Instagram reels telling me to try Hani's, I did - I went & did the most nyc thing ever & waited in line for food. there were about 10 people in front of us & the line moved pretty quickly. probs 10 minutes outside on the sidewalk then 3 mins inside - I am happy to report this pastry joint also had good coffee. I got an iced americano with a splash of almond milk which they let me pour myself from a little pitcher. the espresso was smooth and the almond milk was clearly not that trash almond breeze brand - I got the malted cinnamon roll. duh. the roll is soft with a stretchy consistency in the dough. the frosting is the perfect mix of sweet vanilla bean with a rich tang from the malted flavor. I wish there was a bit more frosting between the grooves however as it sat in the sun the frosting dripped down between the layers. read more

I had been yearning for an iced Maple Sea Salt Latte. As it had been some time since I was here it was high time. The coffee was delicious and I paired it with a fat slice of the Strawberry and Elderflower cake. While the cake was creamy, the flavor was muted and I found the fluffy cream to be overpowering. As I left I saw a sheet pan of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies ready to be put in the display case. I asked for one with being put in the display case. I asked for one with the most chocolate. Yum! I nibbled on it at home and while I was writing this review. Nibbling little by little prolongs the treat while sending me to nirvana! It's always a pleasure to be at Hani's where the treats tempt but most of all the customer service is why I like it, Joyce is friendly and kind. Today I met Enrique. He, too, was kind. read more

This is a cute bakery and their AC works which is great on a hot summer day, lol! I also saw a bunch of instagram posts about this place so I stopped by. There were quite a few pastries, cookies, and cakes to pick from. So I got the item I saw which was the pistachio rice crispy. It's huge. I do wish it was smaller so then I could try mulitple items but what can you do when you solo travel. :P The rice crispy was very soft and chewy and I really enjoyed the flavor as well. I haven't had one of these in years but this was worth a try. Until next time. SYOY! read more

Obsessed with the chocolate chip cookie and the cinnamon roll. I don't know how they were so good, but they were. The carrot cake was fine; it was a bit bland in my opinion. No line around noon on a Saturday, but the seating area was all filled up with people waiting. We managed to snag a table as people were leaving, but it was a bit annoying having to get the food to go, as we weren't sure if we'd be able to get seating (it's first-come first-serve). read more

Small bakery that sells out of a number baked goods by noon. So, that means this place is tasty! I got here by 1pm and grabbed a slice of carrot cake and their honey cake and got a booth that fits about 4 very small people in the back. The cakes were a really large portion and we didn't finish it all. So when they ask for here or to go, ask to take them to go even if you eat it in the bakery. The carrot cake was so good. It had carrot and coconut like frosting and a lot of other flavors. Just loved it. The honey cake is not like a Russian honey cake. It's a frosted cake that tasted like gram crackers? So it was more like a s'more cake? It was good but I was expecting something else. Overall, great place and worth getting a bite! read more

Came close to opening in a weekday morning and there was no crowd + plenty of seating~ Cakes don't come out until 10 am and they were still adding more to their pastry case around 8 am, so maybe don't go too early if you want the full selection! They also have drinks and savory sandwiches and pastries too + a seasonal menu. - Triple chocolate chip cookie (5/5): a big cookie with big puddles of varied-sizes chocolate, nice chew, a little too salty in some places where the salt flakes aren't evenly spread out. Delish! - Malted cinnamon roll (4/5): super soft and doughy with a good cinnamon flavor but the frosting was too sweet for me and all over the place (there is a lot of it!). Very messy but they have hand wipes near the cutlery area :) - Pistachio Halva Rice Krispie (3.5/5): big, hefty and heavy! Dense and chewy (versus the traditional airier ones from Kellogg's), which isn't a bad thing but it wasn't very flavorful. Mild in nutty flavor and leaning more towards the halva. MT, who doesn't love super sweet things, loved this though! - PBJ cake (4/5): the jam part seemed to be blueberry (?) based versus strawberry or grape jam. I wasn't a huge fan of their frosting as it was it tasted like I was eating mostly pure butter/fat. Tasty for a few forkfuls, unique flavor for a cake, happy I tried it. - Honey cake (4/5): arguably one of their most famous items, this one had a mellow honey taste and wasn't overly sweet. Perfect to share over drinks :) The cake had really thin cake layers compared to their other cake, so it's 50% frosting and 50% cake. The texture, taste, and thinness of the cake layer makes me wonder if they are actually graham crackers layered with the frosting. I wouldn't come back just for this, but it was tasty and I did enjoy trying it! - Pistachio rhubarb scone (2.5/5): recommended by the cashier, but I wasn't a fan of this one. The scone was soft and crumbly like cake in the middle but was also dry too. The top with the frosting was the best part; it was sweet but didn't have much of pistachio or rhubarb flavor. I'm a big sweet tooth, and this one was for people who don't like things too sweet. Probably good paired with tea or coffee though! Service was friendly. No restrooms available. There's self-serve water available with teeny tiny cups. Overall a cute bakery with lots of choices and a great meet up spot when it isn't too busy. Be sure to try the chocolate chip cookie! read more

My sister is obsessed with Hani's Bakery and took me there on a Saturday morning. There was a line out the door, but it moved fairly quickly. When we got inside, we ordered the Souffle Egg Sandwich, Shakshuka Croissant Tart, Meyer Lemon Meringue Pie, and Cookie Butter Monkey Bread. The interior was tiny but we managed to snag a small table right away. The first item we tried was the Shakshuka Croissant Tart, which might have been my favorite. The pastry was perfectly flakey and I loved the runny egg with feta cheese. Next, we tried the Meyer Lemon Meringue Pie and Cookie Butter Monkey Bread. Both of these were awesome, although the monkey bread was a bit too decadent for me. Again, great textures all around! The Souffle Egg Sandwich sandwich took a while to come out, but was worth the wait. I loved the milk bread, and green sauce was the perfect tangy compliment to the creamy cheesy eggs. For drinks, I had asked the guy at the counter which ones had coffee and he recommended the Cherry-Yuzu Espresso Cloud. Honestly, he kind of led me astray with that one. While it was tasty, this drink felt barely caffeinated. I should've gone with the Maple Sea Salt Latte! Overall though, we left happy and incredibly full. read more

Hani's was part of my food crawl with my other friend who loves bakeries and honestly we both didn't understand the hype. We got their chocolate chip cookie and carrot cake, which I think they're pretty well known for. I found both to be too sweet and for the price, I was hoping for a little more. The vibes in the bakery are quite cozy, making it a nice place to chat and relax while enjoying the pastries and desserts here. read more

The workers were attentive and made sure to get to every customer or at least acknowledge their wait time despite how busy it was inside the bakery, that was very appreciated. The food and drink matched the service also. I got the maple sea salt coffee which was perfect. The maple flavor wasn't overly syrup tasting or sweet, and the cold foam added a great savory salty contrast that lasted long after the foam mixed in the drink. The chocolate chip cookie was also really good, it used 3 different types of chocolate which all complemented each other, the sea salt was the perfect touch. The cookie had the right amount of crunch while also being soft, not underbaked at all. Well worth the hype read more

{Overall: 4.25; Food: 4.25} Ambiance: 4; Service: 4 Hani's Bakery is a very fun spot. The space is clean, bright, and the pastries are incredibly appealing. I usually try to come on a weekday afternoon to avoid the line. For a greater selection, come by 1 pm at the latest. I've tried: *Malted Cinnamon Bun: My favorite thing I've had here so far. The bun is pillowy and soft, and the frosting strikes the perfect balance between sweetness and cream cheese tanginess. The malt adds a balances the sweetness. One of the best cinnamon buns I've had. *Brown Butter Carrot Cake: Very good. Not overly sweet and has great flavor that is more unique than the classic version. *Hani's Honey Cake: Good, but not my cup of tea. I think you need to already enjoy honey cake as a dessert to fully love it. It's a light and airy cake that isn't too sweet. *Triple Chocolate Chunk Cookie: Extremely decadent and especially delicious when served warm. That said, I'm not sure it's worth $8 given how many great chocolate chip cookies you can find around the city. The Cinnamon Bun and Carrot Cake would keep me coming back. read more

tl; dr: great cinnamon rolls, even better savory options! came here around 1pm on a Saturday afternoon and there was a small line. it took about 20 or so mins to make it in and i was inundated with so many options! i got the following to try: -shashuka croissant: two of my favorite things in one! the tomato sauce was extremely flavorful and had beef sausage in it. it's then topped with a perfectly soft-boiled egg, super sweet/juicy cherry tomatoes, feta, and chive. the flavor was IMPECCABLE. i scarfed it down so quick! -cinnamon roll: the roll itself was soft, tender, and moist. loved the slight saltiness of the icing, gives it a nice contrast with the sweet cream cheese frosting. -maple sea salt latte: soooo good! the latte was rich and robust, paired so well with the maple sea salt cold foam. before coming here, i so desperately wanted to hate this place and say it's overrated (yes, i'm a hater.) however, i just couldn't! everything i tried was amazing! would love to return to try their famous honey and carrot cake. read more

Paneer tikka croissant: really unique take on a croissant with great spiced center. An extremely delicious savory pastry. A tad too salty after eating the whole thing. PBJ Cake: just a perfectly baked tall cake. If you catch a seat at the bar seating, it's addicting to watch the bakers precisely measure every cake slice, heat the knife to slice through the cake cleanly, and decorate the top. read more

I recently went on a cinnamon roll crawl and our first stop was Hani's. The line was thankfully not too long and we were able to secure a malted cinnamon bun ($8.50) as well as a slice of their famous honey cake ($14). The bakery was packed inside so we opted to take our treats to Tompkins Sq Park to enjoy. I thought the cinnamon roll at Hani's looked gorgeous, with a smooth, thick malted frosting poured on top. But I felt the pastry underneath was actually the driest and most dense out of all the cinnamon rolls I tried that day. It lacked the lightness and fluffiness that I expected but I did like the flavor of the malted frosting. I had very high expectations for the honey cake as well, since it was listed on NYT's Top 25 Essential Pastry List but unfortunately the cake fell short for me. As someone who grew up eating medovik, I thought Hani's rendition veered too much on the tart side and the cake layers, again, were too dense and didn't melt in my mouth. Overall, I was a little let down by the hype surrounding Hani's but I would love to return to try their savory offerings. read more

Scene: Dreary rainy day. Almost all the seats in the cozy bakery were taken. I spotted one, and decided to order a hot chocolate. The counter person was exceptionally nice and welcoming. I felt better already after escaping the rain. The hot chocolate is very good, and thick, like European hot chocolate. I tried to decide among all the beautiful pastries after drinking the hot chocolate. I asked another customer and she said one can't go wrong with the triple chocolate chunk cookie. She was right, as it is delicious. I chose the carrot cake to go, and it is perfectly moist and very good. The hibiscus rose morning bun is excellent. Everything looks good, so I will return to try other pastries when nearby. I suggest you visit! read more

A morning rush is inescapable, even 30 minutes past noon on a Saturday. I was here either way, determined to find what all the commotion was about. Within 10 minutes, I was inside the doors. Much to my dismay, a small glass case showcasing about 10 different sweet treats at most stared back at me instead of my desired reflection of a Willy Wonkesque bakery of dreams. We're already here, I gotta make the best of it. 2 pastries and $16 out later, I find a spot to unveil my heavily frosted cinnamon roll. I keep the other one tucked away to surprise my friend for the weekend. Was this cinnamon roll going to turn out to be the chewy doughy pillowy soft cloud of my occasional indulgent sweet treat fantasy daydreams? The simple answer was no. But was the concept of this place cute, with the flavors, decor, and branding of this place able to check off all the marks of what makes a place enticing and exciting for the average 20 something currently living in NYC? Yes, absolutely!! Good to try once, but not again. I've had my share and it wasn't for me, and that's enough for me babes! read more

I was told I had to try the triple chocolate chip cookie from here, and let me tell you, it was so worth it. Decided to go on a little birthday bakery crawl, and this was one of the best bites of the entire day. The cookie was loaded with chocolate, soft, and balanced well with the saltiness. I am not always a fan of thinner cookies, but this one definitely changed my mind. Tasted excellent the next day as it retained its texture. Plenty of seating and great customer service. No line on a Tuesday afternoon. read more

The sea salt maple latte was life-changing, like it genuinely blew my mind. Def lives up to the hype. I also got the triple chocolate chip cookie, and while it's $8, the size of the cookie is def generous. The cookie itself was great texture-wise (exactly how ppl describe it), but I felt like it was a bit too chocolate-y/sweet for my liking, so I don't think I would get it again. There was a slight line outside, but honestly, it moved pretty fast. There's limited seating space inside, and it fills up pretty quickly, so I would say this is more of a takeout place. I would def go back to try more of the bakery options tho. read more

This place checks off a lot of boxes: The Best Chocolate Chip Cookie The Best Hot Chocolate My wife has a hair appointment, I made sure to get to NYC at least one hour early. She's never been so I have to do a Jedi mind trick on her because she's not a breakfast person. I ask her, would you like to have coffee and maybe a bite of my Smoked Salmon Focaccia? Oh yes, thank you! I read Lisa E's review, I walked in, see everyone standing around so I said "Good morning" at a level 7. That perked up everyone quickly. I ordered: Hani's Hot Chocolate Smoked Salmon Focaccia Chocolate Chip Cookie A bag of Granola Pistachio Halavah Rice Krispy Treat We grab our items and find a spot to eat by the counter. There's a small seating area so be prepared to wait for a seat on the weekend. The Hot Chocolate, its made in an Italian style, a thicker liquid. What sold me was the contrast of the cold whipped cream and the rich chocolate. This is a fantastic drink. Smoked Salmon Focaccia had us at hello. The chive cream cheese and salmon was a great combination. The watermelon radishes gave this dish a new, elevated twist on a bagel with cream cheese. The Chocolate Chip Cookie, they locked this in as one of the best cookies for 2026. This morning, my sons are coming over to try the Granola and Pistachio Halavah Rice Krispy Treat. Totally impressed with Hani's Bakery! My son had his engagement party at Gramercy Tavern so it will be nice for him to try these delicious baked goods. read more

Absolutely incredible experience at Hani's Bakery in NYC! Everything here tastes like it was made with genuine care and top-quality ingredients. The coffee was perfectly balanced--rich, smooth, and the ideal pairing for their pastries. And the cakes and baked goods? Truly next level. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully crafted. The pastries were flaky, buttery, and not overly sweet--just the perfect balance. The cakes were moist, light, and tasted homemade in the best possible way. You can really tell the bakers know what they're doing. If you're in New York and love great coffee with exceptional pastries, this place is an absolute must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back (probably too often). Highly recommend! read more

I heard a lot about this spot and when I randomly was in the area, my friend and I lined up to try it out. It was already 3pm, so not many items were available left. We ended up ordering the Pumpkin Spice Banana Bread and Pistachio Rice Krispie, both around $7-8 each. It's a pretty good-sized portion for the price, but didn't find the flavor to stand out much for me. My friend also ordered the Spicy Tuna Sandwich ($18), which was thick and filled. The spicy tuna flavor was delicious although messy to eat with the soft tuna and avocado mixture. Overall, I wasn't very impressed with Hani's, but I did like their atmosphere and aesthetics of the space. I do need to come back and actually try the honey cake, cinnamon roll, and savory baked goods instead --I'm more hopeful for those. read more

YES YES YES!! WOW, glad that I finally got to try this spot! We went on a Sat afternoon and waited ~15 min in their line. They only let a group in at a time. There's some seating, but it's always packed since this spot is poppin'! What we got: - Chocolate Chip Cookie: Actually SOO good! I'm usually skeptical about thin cookies, but this one is absolutely worth the try. - Carrot Cake: YUM!! Not overly sweet and rightfully one of their popular pastries. - Orange Cake Slice: We wanted to try one more item and made the right choice w this one. I'm usually not an orange flavored gal, but you can tell that this one didn't have that overly-artificial orange flavor whatsoever. Not a must try, but I think this spot is def worth the try if you have some time and are you're willing to wait for a bit. read more

We tried a selection of items from Hani's and I really enjoyed the experience. The Chocolate Cake was okay...I really liked the texture and level of sweetness, but it lacked the cocoa flavor I would expect from a cake like that. The Cinnamon Bun was great - perfect roll with the most incredible cream cheese frosting...if this were served warm, it would be spectacular! The Triple Chocolate Cookie was insanely good - buttery and not overly sweet...these were so great, I bought extras to take back with me. The space itself is cute and has a "modern diner" vibe...it has a decent amount of seating, but the place isn't gigantic, so I'd expect certain times to be busier than others. I was here on two occasions over the course of a week and the customer service was excellent each time. read more

They have such unique pastries and so many options! We tried the cinnamon roll, chocolate chip cookie, carrot cake, and paneer tikka pinwheel for food. The cinnamon roll was warm and soft with a delicious frosting on top. I personally like more frosting in between the layers but it was still a solid cinnamon roll. The chocolate chip cookie and carrot cake were fine, but I loved the paneer tikka pinwheel. Very unique and it was a great savory item. For drinks I've tried the hot chocolate and honey cake latte. The hot chocolate was on the dark chocolate side with a slightly salted whipped cream on top. The honey cake latte was nice and sweet and another unique menu item.

Most recently I picked up a seasonal hibiscus rose morning bun, which was a great combo of flavors. The turkey Swiss croissant was so flaky and nice savory pastry. There are so many items to choose from, making it a good spot to go with a few people and split a bunch of things. Definitely a must go! read more

Stopped by on a rainy Sunday afternoon and still had to wait in line, although thankfully it wasn't too long. I had really high expectations for this place based on all the hype, and it completely delivered. I picked up some of their most popular items, including the triple chocolate chunk cookie, a cinnamon bun, and the honey cake. All three were fantastic. I even had to walk more than a mile home in the rain, and somehow everything held its shape perfectly by the time I got back. The honey cake was incredibly moist with a cozy, warm flavor. The cinnamon roll was soft and delicious, and I loved the cream cheese icing. The chocolate chunk cookie had the perfect balance of sweet and salty, and it was even better after a few seconds in the microwave. This was one of those places where every item lived up to the hype, and I can't wait to go back and work my way through the rest of the menu. read more

It's so frustrating when a good bakery runs out of good items. I was visiting close to lunch time but they didn't have their lunch items out yet so I got a shashuka croissant which was very good. The egg was cooked just right, the croissant perfectly flaky and not too soggy at all. I wish I could just try one of their plain croissants but they didn't have any! read more
