Saved me a trip to Tokyo. Got the toast with cream inside. $4. Def worth it 4.5/5. Got the matcha cookie croissant (think that was the name). It was very mid. 2/5. read more

Panya Japanese Bakery - Cream toast - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Panya Japanese Bakery is a highlight when checking out Japan Village in Industry City. It's right in the middle where there's a big open area for people to sit down to enjoy their sweets and also enjoy the nice weather ( when it's good outside ). They offer many things that one can think of for Japanese sweets such as cakes, sandos, pastries, danishes, drinks, sweet bread, and the list goes on and on... I got the Matcha Crookie because I was just curious to see how it would taste.. Is it a more of a cookie than a croissant? It definitely tasted like a crispier cookie but it's delicious. I think it's worth it if you're a matcha fan like I am. I think the only down side is in their own place inside there's not many seating room to go by so you either have to go out to the courtyard or just somewhere with seating to sit down. It could be a bit inconvenient but otherwise if you're grabbing something quick it's fine. Other than that, the staff was friendly and even warmed up my crookie for me. Thanks! I hope to try this place out again when I'm back in Brooklyn! read more

This is an update to my previous review for the pineapple danish: During my first visit to Panya Japanese Bakery, I wanted to try the pineapple danish, I love pineapple! Pineapple on my pizza, turkey burger, you name it, the pina is on top of a meal. It was SOLD OUT!!! During my second visit, the pineapple danish practically winked at me as to say "here I AM!" Well I took the Danish home and let me tell YOU!!! I am in pineapple heaven. Light, lots of pineapple with.. hold on to your pineapple... CREAM CHEESE!!! Flaky dough, coconut flakes, sweet.. delightful!! In fact here are the ingredients: "classic pineapple cream cheese danish typically uses puff pastry or danish dough, a cream cheese filling (softened cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg yolk), and topped with canned or fresh crushed pineapple. Common glaze ingredients include powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and optional coconut flakes." Alohaaaaa indeed!! You must try this Danish!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! read more

Panya Japanese Bakery - Full view: Pineapple Danish, scrumptious - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Food: This bakery is located behind the Sunrise Mart in Industry City's Japan Village. They offer a variety of breads, pastries, desserts, cakes, drinks, and even savory food. I've tried their cheddar mochi breads and hojicha latte. Both were excellent. The mochi breads are very similar to Brazilian cheese bread. The hojicha latte was delicious and had very strong tea flavor. Some breads and pastries look better than others, but there's a lot of variety to choose from. Service: Staff are friendly and welcoming. Ambiance: The bakery is spacious with two tables for dining in. There is a lot of seating right outside of the bakery in the outdoor seating area in the courtyard too. Overall, I would recommend this bakery! read more

Panya Japanese Bakery serves up amazing pastries, breads, cookies, puddings, coffee, matcha, and more in this small storefront behind Japan Village, accessible from the courtyard. It smells fantastic in here and there's so many choices (that you will never see on the online menu). I ordered a cafe au lait, a matcha cream bun, a mango pudding, and a tiramisu. Everything was excellent - delicious and a treat without being over the top heavy or too sweet. The staff are quick at ringing people up and making drinks, and the bakers are constantly refreshing trays of goods. There are only two small tables inside, so plan to take your goods out to the courtyard or the other food hall to eat. (Japan Village does not have enough indoor seating!) They also are not responsive to email and don't post a phone number. They have an online form for custom cake orders. read more

Loved the old panya store in St Mark's area but it closed down during pandemic. So I was so happy they reopened one in industry city, next to Japan Village! They still sell most of their typical things but in a limited amount. I missed their Japanese strawberry shortcake so I had to come here! We got these to share: 1) strawberry shortcake, 2) keema curry pan, 3) cheese mochi balls, 4) sesame shortbread cookies. The strawberry shortcake was good but it didn't taste as good as it use to. Not too sweet & was creamy. Spongecake itself was soft. Keema curry pan - this was ok. Cheese mochi balls - it was also ok. Chewy, mochi texture, very light cheese flavor. Sesame shortbread cookies - I liked this the most as it tasted nice and the cookie was soft and crunchy. Friendly staff and limited seating inside & more seating outside. They sell other japanese pastries, sandos, desserts & beverages. Will come back to try their other things! read more

I didn't have much expectations for this bakery but I was pleasantly surprised! Came here to get a drink but walked out with a keema curry pan too! I thought the curry bread would be similar to Paris baguettes curry croquette (underwhelming) but nope! I air fried it once I got home and wow the texture is so good. It's like encrusted in lightly crisped particles?? And the flavor of the keema curry was also delicious. I would 1000% get it again. The mango matcha drink was a little disappointing but still quenched my thirst. The mango tasted like Costco's mango nectar drink, and when combined with the matcha, the flavor was a little muted. Would not get again but it wasn't necessarily bad. I saw other really interesting pastries in there like cookie croissant that I considered getting but since it was my first time trying the goods here, I didn't want to take such a big risk. I guess I will be getting more treats next time! read more

Was so excited when I found this place in Japan village. After visiting Japan, I miss the curry bread and strawberry sandwiches so much. When I saw they had these goods I immediately went in to grab some. The strawberry sandwich was just as I remember and the curry pan was so good too. It had some meat with a bit of spice. I definitely recommend it warmed up, which they can do if you ask they too. The other sweets are also really good. They are not to sugary so it's the perfect balance of sweetness, which was one of the things I miss from Japan. read more

Very rude staff , unhelpful work and unnecessary attitude when being addressed respectfully, making fun of clients isn't a good look on any business. read more

went to japan village and hit up panya bakery -- let me tell you, this place doesn't play around. the bread alone could ruin your diet and your self-control in one bite. but the pastries? bro... they're on another level. the green tea tiramisu had me questioning my life choices -- light, foamy, fancy little red beans on top like it's posing for a magazine cover. paired it with a hot bowl of gyusugi udon, because balance, right? carbs on carbs never looked so good. Also the staff was very attentive to your needs. #japanvillage #panyabakery #nyceats #foodnyc #japanesefood #brooklynfoodie #udonlove #nycfoodie #greenteadessert #tiramisu #nycbakery #foodieinthebigapple2025 #nyfoodadventures #eeeeeats #foodstagram #dessertlover read more

A wonderfully sweet Japanese cafe located within Japan Village- Industry City. The aroma of baked goods filled the store as I walked in. All the cakes, pastries and baked goods looked so masterfully crafted- it's almost like a piece of art...well almost. I ordered a Vanilla Creme puff and an Iced Matcha latte. The creme puff tasted so airy and lite- without that heavy fullness. I truly enjoyed the Matcha latte drink and accompanied so well with my creme pastry. Was able to seat at the dine-in table to enjoy this sweet treat. Overall, a great addition to IC read more

I was so excited that they reopened Panya and it's in my neighborhood! I was so sad when they closed their East Village location years ago since I used to get all my birthday cakes from there. I always ordered the strawberry shortcake or the matcha tiramisu. This location has a lot of seating both indoor and outdoor. There's drinks, bread, pan, cakes, and cookies. I wanted to try their sandwiches but they don't have them until later in the afternoon. I bought the sukiyaki cheese pan, the spicy curry pan, and the matcha custard pan. They were all fresh and delicious. I'll definitely be back! read more

Panya Japanese Bakery - Exterior - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great fresh pastries and breads! Was thrilled to see a reopening in my area when I was a loyal customer to their NYU location in the city for years. We came for the (Tuesday-Friday) 9-11am $1 coffee deal but were told it's only for pastries or danish. It did not apply to our bread purchase. To gain some more traffic in such a specific location - I would recommend this deal should just be applied to ANY purchase from 9-11am. Inside is lovely and I saw a sneak peak of the bakery area in the back which is HUGE!!!! I very much enjoyed seeing the lady in the clear glass making the fresh food as well. They should figure out some more seating for the upcoming cold weather. read more

Happy that panya reopened here. They sell a limited amount of things when we went. Hoping they will sell more items later on. We tried the strawberry shortcake, keema curry pan, cheese mochi ball, sesame shortbread cookies. The strawberry shortcake was good but it didn't taste as good as it use to. The keema curry pan was ok, I would skip it. The cheese mochi balls was ok as well. I did like the sesame shortbread cookies. Friendly staff & some seating inside + outside. read more

Girl at the front making the coffee is honestly the most unapproachable person. Rolling her eyes, no thank you, no eye contact, no please... just a nasty attitude. Won't be coming back read more

Disappointing. They had sign advertising katsu bahn mi. The cashier then said "it's sold out". I queried "what isn't sold out?" She appeared confused. Had to ask another cashier who clarified it's no longer on the menu. I then selected the French toast to keep from holding up the line and was told "about 10 mins". I stood for 20 mins and then finally they said it was ready. They barely apologized and offer the excuse we got backed up. They could have easily said that when I ordered. they did not try to make things nicer. They aggressively handed me the box of food. At this point I was pretty irritated and demanded a bag. Honestly, this place makes me never want to come again. I will avoid at all costs. Also did not like the French toast. There are plenty of Japanese bakeries here. It's not hard to just provide general service that's honest and straightforward. For me it's less about the food and more about service. Being kind, explaining things isn't hard. read more
