First of all, their pastries are perfect and love they use Kettl matcha as well. Love that my croissants and pastries stayed flaky and crispy even after several days. I'll definitely be back to try their savory ones.

Matcha croissant, black sesame croissant, egg spinach pastry
Annie B.

Food/drinks: tried only their pastries here including the matcha croissant, savory egg spinach pastry, and black sesame croissant! All very very good but the matcha one was okay, it was too sweet and dense for my personal taste Had a hard time choosing between all the options, will definitely come back Atmosphere: very cute! Some seating and lots of natural lighting Service: friendly Price: $$ pricey!! But very unique pastries

Wagyu croissant
Alison A.

A great bakery with so many fun options. The matcha croissant was super unique and I loved the layers within. The Wagyu croissant reminded me a Reuben. I would definitely get both a savory and sweet item here since both were awesome

Calamansi Knot
Sandy Y.

Every croissant that I get never disappoints. From their daily rotating menu to their weekend specials, whether I stop by on a weekday or a weekend, there is always something super delicious waiting. This is one of these smaller (basically grab-and-go) spots. Out of all the croissants that I had in New York City, I have to say Paloma has probably some of the best savory croissants. My favorite recently is definitely the Wagyu croissant.

Paloma is so underrated! The wagyu croissant was surprisingly REALLY good, the croissant was so flaky and buttery (we had it warmed up). Who knew wagyu would taste good in a croissant? We also tried the fig & melon danish, it was not too sweet. I loved the cream and the fruity touch. They are a small store with very little seating. The staff was so friendly and helpful when we didn't know what to order. I definitely recommend a try!

Black Sesame Pinwheel
Ruby C.

Matcha lovers... RUN to Paloma for the richest matcha pastry--a dreamy collab with Kettl Tea. I picked up a few pastries and every single bite left me in awe. Paloma has instantly earned a spot in my top 5 bakeries in NYC. The creativity and craftsmanship behind each pastry really shine. Pro tips:  - Get there early if there's a specific pastry you want, as the popular items sell out fast. - Head to their bakery location (163 Nassau Ave) for more sufficient pastry options. *Matcha Chocolate Croissant $8 Intensely earthy and bittersweet, the rich matcha flavor amazed me. You could tell from the deep green color that they didn't skimp out on matcha. I heard they went through tons of recipes to perfect the matcha terrine texture. We all know how much the price for matcha has gone up lately. $8 for this level of matcha pastry is such a steal. *Wagyu Gruyere Croissant $9 This weekend-only wagyu gruyere croissant felt like an elevated take on a breakfast croissant. It was flawlessly flaky and not greasy at all. I also loved the pickle!  *Black Sesame Pinwheel $6 One of their most popular pastries! Beautifully laminated and spiraled, it was filled with black sesame cream. While the flavor was good, I'd say the black sesame wasn't rich or nutty enough in Asian standards, or if you are into a more intense black sesame flavor like me. *Pain au Chocolat $6.75 *Croissant $4 I was told they use only the best butter and top-quality ingredients in their pastries. Their laminated pastries were flawless: perfectly layered, incredibly buttery, and flaky in every bite.

Shakshuka Croissant
Tiffany V.

4/5 Shakshuka Croissant -- the lamination work is impressively strong on their pastries! I will say the bake on it is a bit stronger than I'd normally prefer. I wish it had more tomato sauce filling! I visited on a Friday around 11am, and they were sold out of everything except the plain croissant, raisin croissant, and shakshuka croissant. To echo other reviews, be sure to get here earlier for a wider selection of their more unique offerings!

Vanilla latte and calamansi knot
Carissa C.

Loved this coffee shop! We had their vanilla latte with almond milk and the most delicious calamansi knot. The latte was perfectly made and wasn't too sweet. It paired perfectly with their calamansi knot and it had this luscious filling in the middle. The shop is fairly small but we were able to snag some seats at the counter. The staff was very friendly as well. Would return when in the area again!

Matcha croissant with Valrhona dark chocolate and a flat white
Gisele C.

Delicious pastries, good coffee, and amazing beans. A cozy place to sit, read, and journal. The service here is excellent. I've been here multiple times and see long-time customers coming in and being greeted by name. I asked which coffee beans would suit my taste, referring to the roast level and flavors I enjoy and was helped in choosing some. As I was paying for my beans, the lady behind the counter asked me if I need any advice or anything on grind settings- so thoughtful! Also on the beans- they're pricier than other beans I've bought but last just as long because they're good beans and run a really consistent shot. I had the matcha pastry with dark chocolate and it was divine! Looking forward to trying the pain au chocolat on my next visit!

Sicilian blood orange danish
Gab G.

Okay this place is amazing! Butter croissant was one of the best I've ever had. Also loved the Sicilian blood orange danish. They'll even heat up the pastries for you. I will be back ASAP for more croissants. Coffee drinks also looked great. Limited indoor and outdoor seating.

Matcha lemonade, sesame pastry
Brenda Y.

This is a small bakery which only a few seating inside. We got there later in the afternoon so most of the pastries were sold out but we managed to get the last sesame pastry. The sesame pastry was perfectly sweet and the outside edges were nice and flakey. However, since it has been sitting out, the bottom was soggy. The matcha lemonade was made pretty quickly but it did not taste like matcha at all as the lemon overpowered the drink. If you decide to come, I would definitely recommend coming earlier and trying their pastries.

Matcha chocolate
Jasmine M.

Came at around 9:45am on a Saturday and there was no line. All of the pastries we got were super flaky and very yummy. My favorite was the guava and lime, then the shakshuka, then the matcha chocolate, and finally the sesame pinwheel. The guava and lime danish was INCREDIBLE - strong guava flavor with a zesty lime cream, so good. The shakshuka could use a bit of heat but it was still very flavorful. I felt like the chocolate overpowered the matcha for the chocolate matcha danish. And finally, I could not really taste the sesame in the sesame pinwheel pastry. I would definitely come back to try their other pastries and specials that they have!

Pastry selection - July 2025
Stefanie Y.

We just beat the morning rush into Paloma on a Saturday morning, and immediately, we enjoyed the relaxed vibes: a kid was watching something on her iPad while her mom read a book and sipped coffee. Another guy, who seemed to be a regular, was enjoying a drink and pastry while chatting with the barista. Parents with strollers rolled up to pick up coffees and pastries for their morning walk. Walking up to the pastry case, I could immediately see why Paloma is a neighborhood favorite: I truly wanted to eat everything in there! There was a stunning, velvety green matcha pastry, a dusky black sesame swirl, a mango-filled pastry with puree peeking out of the top, a massive, pink-striped, cream-filled pastry overflowing with cherries, a croissant with wagyu beef... and they all looked incredible, with beautiful lamination and generous filling. We ended up choosing the cherry pastry cream danish, and it was the best thing we ate all day. It was summer in a pastry - cool, refreshing cream, perfectly ripe cherries, contained in a a well-baked, beautifully laminated pastry shell. I also picked up the black sesame swirl, which was filled with black sesame cream within a spiral of well-defined, well-baked, laminated layers. Service was also so helpful and friendly, answering questions about the pastries and about the drink options. My iced matcha latte was delicious and was made with some sort of house-made pistachio-almond milk; the other milk options were whole & oat. Apparently there's two other Paloma locations elsewhere in Brooklyn that are a little larger and perhaps have a wider selection of baked goods, but this location, a small storefront on a quieter street, retained the feeling of a hidden neighborhood gem. I'd wholeheartedly recommend checking out this location or any of the other Paloma locations!

Had a grapefruit and bergamot pastry. Sooo good! It was well-balanced with a sweet cream. Can't wait to try it again.

There's the main seating area and then two offshoot lounges, which aren't quite as cozy but offer different levels of quiet and ambience. I love all the random décor, antique signs, old arcade games as tables, a million lamps. It's like what nook is going for but you can actually sit down on a comfy couch most of the time. The guy working the counter has a lot of energy and clearly loves being there. The PB banana smoothie was yummy, very thick so could use a spoon. Mushroom toast was a bit pricey but you did get a lot of food for your money, the focaccia was crunchier than expected but all around a nice cafe bite. I just appreciate how this is such a gathering spot where you can watch bk life play out while working, it had a different energy from a lot of places in the area.

Shucks I wanted to give this place five stars but it didn't start so well. The first barista who…read moretook my order was really great. I first ordered a chai latte and he said I could do two different syrups so I got the pumpkin and salted maple, though I was worried about it being too sugary so he suggested I could just do half a pump of each. He asked me what the name of the order would be and I said "Aida" (the phonetic spelling is ah-EE-dah). And then I heard the other barista say something along the lines of, "oh Aida, how about 'Aida' rather not be here", pretty rude if you ask me. And then I ordered the spicy nook sandwich. And when another server called my named to grab it she didn't even knowledge me when I tried to thank her and instead she talked to her coworker while I was right in front of her. The sandwich was really good, so was my chai tea. I really like the pumpkin and salt and maple syrups too. I did like all the options for seating although it was pretty packed. I'd say if you have a big party get there early. By 7pm the whole place was filled. There was a huge majong club that came in and took the whole back area, it was so crammed there were lines for the bathroom. Over all I had a good time. I really like the music too just know it gets very busy in there. The employees I would say were hit or miss. The ones that were great though I really liked. Just seem like the ones who didn't really give attention to customers or were kind of rude seemed like they didn't wanna be there.
