Located just a few minutes walk from McCarren Park a few of us hit Northside Bakery one morning after running the track in the park. A quick walk down Bedford to N 8th Street. We enjoyed some hot coffees and breakfast pastries. As this is also a Polish spot they offer pierogis, blintzes, sauerkraut, kielbasa, stuffed cabbage, soups and more on the menu. Its more like a market to also find some specialty goods and a selection of breads. read more

Food/drinks: yumm!! I want to come back to try the filled donut and other savory options for sure. I loved the pierogis (lots of filling to outside ratio) and the blue berry filled pastry! Atmosphere: cute! It's like a mini polish grocery store/deli! Service: friendly service but very quick! You should know what you want when it's your turn Price: cheap! read more

As a fellow Eastern European, I can confidently say this place felt truly authentic. I had the crepes and pierogi, and both were absolutely delicious. read more

We were walking around in Williamsburg and stumbled across Northside Bakery. This is a Polish bakery, complete with a hot food bar, market items and baked goods. The hot food is ordered by the pound, and varies daily. We tried the perogies, sausage, potatoes and meatballs. Our favorite was the sausage. For the baked goods, we tried the prune donut and the coconut donut. Both were sweet but light. The prune filling is very strong, so you should only try if you are a prune fan. Overall, a nice and different experience for all. Staff all seemed to be Polish, so it seems pretty authentic read more

We had just finished lunch with some good friends. After lunch, they told us to walk around this cute neighborhood, called Williamsburg. Luckily, I did and stumbled across this small place. I was intrigued and poked my head inside. The delicious aroma of the bakery was so inviting so I walked in. They were super friendly and patient. I was looking at the pierogies as I've never had them before. I ordered a little bit to try. OMG! These were delicious! I did not know what I was getting, but they didn't have a lot left in their display case. The sour cream along with the meat and potato pierogies. I was in food heaven! So good. The skin isn't too thick, just perfect. read more

Seems like an awesome bakery, but unfortunately I went on a Sunday, k felt like everything was just leftover from the day before, small selection on Sunday. Would try again but not on Sunday. . read more

These donuts are soooo good. Ran here with my run club for early morning donuts. I tend to go for powder donuts so chose the powdery one without knowing what filling was inside--surprise me. I didn't have much expectations but oh my word, it was so good. It's crispy on the bottom and pillowy soft on top and the filling was a sort of apple compote that crept up after a few bites in. I inhaled it and immediately went back in to get one for the road. Run (like we did) don't walk here! read more

Came in here after eating some falafel to get a dessert. Wow this place has so much to offer. I settled on an eclair that was satisfying and not too sweet. I would totally return if I'm in the neighborhood as they have an extensive offering of food and desserts. They even serve coffee and have a small non perishable grocery offering all the way from Poland. I loved listening to customers and staff chatting in Polish while ogling at all the desserts. Prices are incredibly reasonable. And staff are friendly and efficient. read more

I thought this place was tasty and affordable while the person I met working there was kind and helpful! I didn't try everything, but I had the sausages and eggs, which were delicious :) I also liked the way the space was set up so even if it's not huge, you can take a seat looking out the windows. Also design outside has a lovely green sign so hard to miss read more

I've been here a number of times before about a decade ago. I've known it to have some nice Polish treats, so I had to stop in on my last trip to Bk. I asked for a plum paczek around 3pm on a Friday, and booooooyyy was it stale and dry. Really bad honestly. I had to throw it out because I couldn't handle the dough texture. Plum filling was a'ight. I would stop in again to try another one because I have unending hope for paczki, but I would maybe only do so in the early AM when they are hopefully fresh. read more

I got a glazed donut with prune(!) for $1.85 and 4 'lamingtons', which they called kokosanki for $2.69 (it's by pound). I'm trying to find lamingtons in NYC after having my first ones in Maine (of all places), and this place came up. The lamingtons were good and the cake itself was very moist - a nice treat that wasn't too sweet, but it didn't have the same allure that the Maine bakery had. The glazed donut was very good and yeasty when it came to the donut itself - the filling was indeed very pruney and thick, and didn't complement the donut too much. I would come back here if I'm in the area, but I wish there were more signs of what the items were, as I had to ask them to basically explain all the pastries that they had. read more

Polite service, quality goods, and fair prices have earned Northside Bakery a lot of fans for good reason! While I was sitting outside today, enjoying some pierogi, I overheard two unrelated people in two different groups mention to those around them that the bakery was their favorite, and then, of course, they all stopped in. I was delighted to find Northside Bakery stocks a variety of Kamis mustard, including my fave, spicy Russian style, and I bought two bottles in addition to a large jar of imported pickles and a giant (!) loaf of Pullman sourdough bread, which, when cut (as they do complimentary in the shop) yielded 26 or 28 slices (depending upon how you feel about the ends or whether you can make it home without trying some first). You should've seen me giddily making room for this bread in the freezer. As a person who lives alone and abides by a low carb diet most of the time, it just might last me forever (or close enough). And the best part? The whole loaf cost $7, which is exactly what I paid for HALF of a comparable loaf at Foster Sundry a few weeks ago, so you can bet your bananas I'm skipping FS and exclusively buying from Northside going forward. Looking forward to trying their other loaves as well. (If my loaf ever does run out, that is.) Going back to the pierogi, my friend bought us a couple to share, as we had just been walking around the area in search of a snack. We each had one meat-filled one, and then we halved and split one classic potato-and-cheese and one (of which its formal flavor title evades me) that contained mushroom. I think the meat might have been my favorite, but then again, I scarfed it down pretty fast. read more

I was passing by this bakery on a late Thursday evening so I decided to stop in and try a muffin. They were closing soon so the options left were limited but I purchased a blueberry muffin for about $3. It was pretty large compared to usual muffins & still tasted fresh when I ate it the next day. Based on the other reviews I read about this place it seems like they have great breads/pastries so I would definitely go back to try some other items. read more

So, I bought a few things from them, and I liked it. Today I bought jelly buns with no jelly. Picture attached, cone that has more salt than sugar and a stale croissant. I tried to call them and politely advise to talk to a baker. Was told by a woman with Eastern European accent (just like mine :) that manager isn't there, she doesn't care, and if I want to, I can leave a 1 star review. And that is what I am doing. For a future, if a polite regular customer calls with a concern, you listen to a concern instead of telling him that manager isn't there and you don't care! read more

[FR] Cet avis s'adresse uniquement à ceux qui ont des expériences culinaires ou qui veulent savoir comment est la nourriture et les services et vous êtes nouveau en ville. Je passerais ma commande avec l'application TooGoodToGo et je n'ai jamais mangé dans ce lieu d'affaires. Je veux voir quelles options de dîner ils ont. Oui, ils ont des tonnes de friandises de boulangerie mais je suis du côté sain des choses, et d'après ce que j'ai vu en magasin, Miam ! Mais j'étais venu pour l'option dîner. J'étais heureux accueilli avec un sourire et l'échange a été rapide et je suis sorti en un rien de temps. Mais la nourriture était excellente mais je pense que l'un des plats était du pain de viande "Je ne mange pas de viande", alors faites-en don au réfrigérateur communautaire à quelques rues de là. Mais, ça a l'air bien cuit et j'espère que quelqu'un l'appréciera. Mais ces deux couscous enveloppés dans des feuilles de chou étaient "sur mon panda" tellement bons. La soupe aux nouilles et aux carottes n'était pas légère et salée. "J'apprécierais aussi la soupe et les nouilles" La prochaine fois, voyez peut-être ce qu'ils ont à donner au département de la boulangerie, mais jusque-là, c'était une revue Panda et la nourriture rend tout triste. Miam miam [ENG] This review is only for those with food experiences or want to know how is the food is services and you new in town. I'd place my order with TooGoodToGo App and never have eaten at this place of business. I want to see what dinner options they do have. Yes, they have tons of bakery goodies but I'm on the healthy side of things, and from what I saw in shop, Yummy! But, I'd came for the dinner option. I was happy greeted with a smile and the exchange was fast and I was out in no time. But the food was excellent but I think one of the dishes was meatloaf "I don't eat meat" so donation it to the community fridge few blocks away. But, it look well cooked and hope someone enjoys it. But those two Couscous wrapped in cabbage leaf wraps were "on my panda" so darn good. The soup with noodle and carrots was not and light on the sea salt. "I'd also enjoy the soup and noodle" Next time, maybe see what they have to give in the Bakery Department, but until then this as been a Panda Review and Food make everything sad go away.

I stop by here on my lunch break for the hot plates! it's the best deal in town. I get a massive chicken schnitzel, a few pierogis and delicious slaw for under $10. read more

Excellent baked goods along with a hot buffet with savory dishes. The pierogi - both sweet and savory - were as good as they get. We also had some apple dumplings (my word) that were freshly made and scrumptious. A small table bar inside and 2 tables outside should you stay and eat (recommended for the best flavors). I will return for a few loaves of bread that look out of this world. The servers are very friendly taking time with the uninitiated as to what everything is. Whether for breakfast, a snack, afternoon sweet or for dinner, this should be on your options list! read more

A few months ago I saw this place advertised on a Facebook group. The post raved about how good the selection of snacks, breads, pastries, and perogies are. After much debate I finally visited and that review should have raved more. This is a local Polish bakery that sells speciality prepackaged chocolates and snacks from Poland. I definitely recommend for the lovers of chocolate to try a few of the selections along the wall especially the chocolate wafers. The perogies are always flavorful and filling, my personal favorite is the cheese and potato. The warm jelly donuts that are baked fresh are really the best! It's something about the glaze with the sweet jelly that really is addicting. The staff is always nice and welcoming! It seems many locals come in and speak about Polish local items that you want made or wish they can get with the staff. It's amazing to see the chemistry the staff has with the local clientele in those moments. read more

We decided to grab a few pastries in the neighborhood on our way to dinner. This place never disappoints the pastries and breads are always so absolutely fresh. The young ladies behind the counter are extremely helpful and answer any inquiries with a smile. The location is meant to be an in and out establishment with a bench outside to sip your coffee and people watch. There is a plethora of choices in both the pastry display and the bread shelf. The price point is fair, the establishment is very clean and the service is extremely efficient. We purchased a cream filled phyllo pastry, a chocolate croissant and a Polish raspberry preserve donut. All the items purchased were very good. This is a neighborhood staple so, go get some of everything. read more

The store has amazing pork chops, pierogis and pastries. It's a no-frills Polish bakery that serves amazing food for cheap prices. Their pork chop was one of the most tender and well-marinated pork chops I've ever had in my life, and only for $7. It also amazed me that they sold lamingtons, because I had been searching everywhere in New York to no avail until I came here. I got a whole bag of 10 for $7. Unfortunately we were told by a local Williamsburg-er that the store was to close soon due to an influx of new businesses coming into the area. I was sad upon hearing this news because Northside Bakery is one my favourite low key eateries in Brooklyn. The bakery has been here for 20 years and it's upsetting to know that Northside Bakery is going to be another neighbourhood gem lost to gentrification :( (Attached are some drawings my friend made of the place) read more

Walked in and immediately greeted with a smile. I was recently in Warsaw and walked in and immediately recognized it as a polish bakery - cute! I ordered a paczki - stuffed donut and didn't think it was very special but the prices and options for baked goods makes this place a note worthy stop. They also have European packaged goods and a sandwich/ lunch counter. read more

The bread and baked goods here are crazy good. I recently started getting it because of Too Good To Go. Everything I have gotten has been absolutely scrumptious. Their breads turn me into a wild animal and I go nuts on a bag of rolls and donuts. The smell of the bag of bread is intoxicating. I just sit there and huff it. Their bread is magic, do yourself a favor and butter up a slice. read more

Wonderful friendly bakery and store filled with Polish goods and hot food. We wanted to try an new bakery and their breads looked delicious online and when we stopped by we were not only surprised by their bread selection but Polish hot food. We usually go to Maspeth for baked goods and Polish food but this place is definitely now permanently on our rotation. Their bread is fresh , delicious and well priced along with their hot food. Give this place a try if you haven't already! read more

Doughnut time! A co-worker of mine lives by this bakery and once a week he'd bring in a box of doughnuts. One thing true to my heart are doughnuts. I'll have to say these rank near the top. We usually get a choice of jelly filled doughnuts. One rose petal falvored the other raspberry. The rose petal flavor is a acquired taste and maybe off putting to some. I found it flowery but it didn't turn my stomach. The raspberry filling are probably my favorite. Sweet and fruity and just the right amount. It's all about the dough as the doughnut is a nice crisp doughnut fried outside and soft chewy airy inside. Always can't get enough of these. If in the area definitely pick up a doughnut. read more

We travel all the way from South Jersey to buy their bread! Found it when my daughter lived in Williamsburg until 2 years ago. It's a Polish bakery with lots of prepared food and pasty in addition to the fresh bread. I've never cared for the pastry but it's worth the trip for the bread. Health bread and fruited bread are my favs. I buy lots and freeze it. Give it a try if you're in W'burg! read more

Best bakery in Williamsburg- the recently renovated store is beautiful, everything looks delicious. Their bread is always on point, I recommend the ciabatta or their challah. The hot foods are delicious and changes daily and I always get the pierogi and their vegetable or dill soup! Great prices, definitely unbeatable in Williamsburg. read more

Best food! Best fresh baked bread, pastries, cakes, cookies... you name it! and so much more! Definitely my favorite bakery!

Went back again for another Monday late lunch. The cabbage roll ($2.50/ piece)was good, unexpectedly light but filling. I also tried a pork meatball, with I think mushroom on the inside, with a creamy dill sauce on it (pretty interesting), latke, and string beans (had some kind of meat/bread? crumble on it, not so into that flavor). The hot buffet ended up being $4. It seemed like they sold out of a lot of the pastries this Monday, or maybe last Monday was slow? Oh, and the cream of mushroom soup is there on Wednesdays. read more

Cool Polish bakery that has bread loafs, dessert, and hot plates. I have tried some of the sweets and hot plates and everything was great. The dishes are very authentic and this place is on par with the many Polish Greenpoint spots just about half a mile away. It's worth just coming in to take a look at the selection. The staff could be a little friendlier though. read more

The sourdough bread was delicious and fresh on a Thursday afternoon only 2 left cost $5.75 each .

Pierogies? Yes!!! Borscht? No :( You can't have everything, but if you're willing to give it a try, start small and give this place a try! Don't be intimidated if your Polish exactly up to par - they speak English, and are as friendly and sweet as pie! They have from a wide variety of breads to pastries to drinks you could probably only find in Poland. It is a small establishment, so be patient as you wait on line; it does go fast! A pound of pierogies and a cabbage soup later, I only spent $8.80 and am pretty damn sure my boyfriend will get a bite or two if I let him. Worth the visit if you're roaming around this area! read more

This European bakery is using all natural and fresh ingredients. Their products range from cookies, to breads, to cakes and Napoleon. I got three different items to try. First, I had a raisin and walnut roll. Don't let the size of this little roll fool you. It's hearty and packed with plump raisins, dried cranberries and walnuts. It's got a great crispness and crunch on the outside, and loaded with the natural sweetness of the fruit and nuts. Then, my eyes went straight for this horseshoe looking pastry. I'd never seen one like it. Since there's nothing in the picture to scale the size, believe me when I say it's the size of my face (or your face, your friend's face, whoever). The pastry itself is layered with a light and flaky pastry dough, and what I would describe as a cross between a crisp croissant and a cookie. It has a slightly savory quality to it, but mixed with the large sugar crystals on top, you get a balanced combination. Then, seeping out of the middle is this perfectly sweet prune puree meets paste. Lastly, they said that one of their most popular items was their jelly donut. Sold. This softball sized donut is pretty awesome. The dough is pillowy, light and soft and confected with powdered sugar. The amount of jelly on the inside isn't very liberally injected, but, it is unique and delicious. It's a bit tart from the berries, but then, out of nowhere, you have a hint of floral, potentially rosewater. read more

The tiramisu here is phenomenal. Tiramisu is my mother's favorite dessert and she's pretty picky about it (she hates it when it's too sweet and doesn't have enough coffee flavor) but she loved it here! The price was also great considering how large of a portion you get. I got two whole pieces (you can get a whole or a half) and one piece was way larger than I expected. It was enough for four people to share with an extra piece still left over, and it was $10! Other bakeries will sell a small slice for one person for $6. read more
