    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.

    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!

    Presentation is absolutely top-notch. I was hoping to try their strawberry shortcake but the customer in front of me took the last slice. Oh well... I guess that's a good excuse to come back for more sweet treats. The seating is first come first served, so it's not guaranteed you'll get a table even if you order something. I got the honey cake to go and I have to say it was a little overrated. I'd still like to come back and try a few more things before making up my mind though.

    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.

    Brown Butter Carrot Cake

    {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.

    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.

    PBJ Cake, paneer tikka croissant
    Matt L.

    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.

    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.

    Maple Sea Salt Latte
    Srinanda G.

    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.

    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!

    Lived up to the hype. The carrot cake wasn't too sweet which I love. The salmon focaccia was soooo good. Drinks- you can prob skip. I can't wait to come back for more food items and pastries.

    Smoked Salmon Focaccia
    Bill S.

    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.

    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.

    The dessert here is so inviting and pretty. Especially the mousse based ones that look like fruits…read more I got the mango, orange, and the one that looks like a mushroom. The orange has a base made of chocolate Rice Krispies. All of them have more fruity filling than the mousse. They are very fragile. I recommend eating there if you can. Finding can be a challenge because it's busy and there aren't many seats. I got mine to go just to be taken to the park across the street . The mushroom kind are totally ruined. It has strawberriy jelly and it was a mess. The orange one was almost ruined too. The mango has some diced mangoes. I devoured three of them instantly. Definitely come back to try more.

There was no place to sit down because of how busy it was but the staff kept the line moving quick enough. The place still seemed reasonably stocked with their desserts and treats, despite the late afternoon time that I arrived. I ordered 4 different treats to go and they're packed in small box individually. Unfortunately, they didn't quite stay intact during my trek back to my hotel and were tumbled around in the boxes. Nonetheless, the taste and flavors held up well and even after a few days in the fridge. The yuzu daisy has this vivid pastel yellow-pink base and adorable gelatinous yellow gem atop a white flower. The yuzu gives a subtle infusion of tart that is balanced out by the light delicate skin texture of the rest. Sitting atop a thin round rice crispy. I loved the red mushroom one which is a creamy pink mousse inside the cap. The stalk is a thin porcelain-white chocolate light base also filled with a rich cream. Adjacent are two cute little tree nuts. The orange and mango have such vivid colors and are aesthetically pleasing too. Just like the previous ones, their delicate chocolate exterior houses a rich tarty mousse-y filling. I think the mushroom has a better balance and variety of flavors. Although I don't eat mousse treats often, I look forward to trying some of the other ones in the future, like the blueberry, banana and cloud.

    This used to be my favorite Italian bakery. I haven't been to this bakery in years like ten years…read moresince I was a teenager. Today I decided to make a special trip to go here to grab a few goodies. I forgot how small the place was and how low the ceilings were. That wasn't an issue though. The place was nice and cakes were stacked neatly. What was surprising to me is that they don't have any cookies laid in the front display. It's all placed in the back almost hidden. I was deeply disappointed with their cookie selection. It was deeply surprising that they don't sell the butter cookies that had jam in the middle and dipped with chocolate on one side with sprinkles. I did ask the clerk and even showed him a pic of what I was looking for and he said they never sold them. They only had the linzer cookies and they didn't look so good. They also did not have the lobster tail. They did have the sfogliatelle which they also called a lobster tail. I thought they were not the same? Some bakeries sell both and they are definitely not the same. I did end up buying one of their sfogliatelle with cream and some rugelachs. The sfogliatelle was good but the rugelachs tasted slightly underbaked. It did taste fresh though unlike many I've had in other bakeries. However, for $28 per pound, I wouldn't get it again. For those not having lobster tail and not having the Italian cookies, I will have to give Veniero's a low rating. I never thought an Italian bakery would not carry staples. Very disappointed. I need to find another Italian bakery now.

I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!
