I had their chocolate chip miso cookie, and it was absolutely fabulous! Perfect balance of flavors.

I'm so glad that I stopped in here instead of walking down the block to Starbucks. I had the apple crumble muffin and a latte. I dont mind waiting longer for my coffee if it is made correctly. I only planned on eating half of the muffin, however it was so delicious that I ate the whole thing. Itty was fresh and moist. The latte was strong and tasty. I would definitely come back if I'm in this area. There is plenty of seating and the place was extremely clean and modern. read more

Was excited to try this place after hearing about it! Walked in took a look and walked right out. Most of the pastry counter are just recipes from the New York Times!! read more

This place should be ashamed of the Ruben sandwich they make. The young woman behind the counter was very nice and kept her cool when a long line formed and she was the only one behind the counter to do anything. Three super thin slices of pastrami....You literally can't even taste any pastrami over the buttered bread and sauerkraut. I understand prices of food have gone up, but for a $16 price tag, it really should have been more meat and meat all the way to the edges of the bread too. That panini was very, very sad. I would be embarrassed to serve that to a customer. read more

Stopped by this bakery with a friend over the summer for a quick drink and treat. Nice location, large, clean restaurant with plenty of seating. Overall, it was ok. The menu has a lot to offer, and the staff are incredibly nice. We shared a chocolate chip cookie, my friend got a latte, and I got a pumpkin spice iced chai. The cookie was yummy and my friend enjoyed her latte. Unfortunately, the chai was so, so bad I didn't even drink it and dumped most of it. It tasted mostly like syrup, and you honestly couldn't even tell it was supposed to be chai. A bit disappointing, but maybe this spot is just better at coffee based drinks. read more

I typically love this place. But recently had a not so pleasant experience. I had ordered a sandwich that comes with lettuce, however it did not come with lettuce. When I asked for lettuce the girl behind the counter acted like she did not know what to say or do. "This is how it came." When I reminded her that it is advertised to be served with lettuce, she then proceeded to say "well the kitchen is closed." The kitchen being closed, was not disclosed when I ordered, so they must have ran out of lettuce for the day. Overall, the panini was $14 and not worth the price I paid. Will probably never order food from here again. However, their lattes and desserts are worth coming back. read more

I passed by this bakery and had to try it. I'm so glad I didn't keep walking! I bought a scone and some type of a croissant muffin with cinnamon sugar. wow! Both were amazing! The scone was really crisp on the outside and very soft on the inside with great blueberry flavor. The croissant muffin was outrageous, really buttery and flaky with lots of cinnamon sugar. Crispy on the outside and airy like a pop over on the inside. So tasty! I'm actually still dreaming about those! I will have to cross the bridge and stop by this weekend! The woman behind the counter is so fast and efficient! Really nice also. The menu is really enticing, and I can't wait to try some of their sandwiches. They look really delicious. read more

This morning I thought I would give this place a shot. We'll, it was subpar at best. there was one person taking orders, making the food and taking payment. Not something you want to see at busy breakfast time. The scone was average at best and the the egg sandwich was stale and over cooked. thank god I brought my own good coffee and some fruit. This was the best part of this experience. I would recommend avoiding this stop when in Nyack. read more

This place is excellent for a light bite and the famous morning buns... I highly recommend read more

Always good baked goods and paninis in a pleasant casual setting. Usually one person at the counter and no table service so there can be a line. read more

Wonderful coffee shop! Excellent cappuccino and latte. Fresh baked goods and panini sandwiches! I would highly recommend this shop right in the heart of town. Such a wonderful atmosphere! read more

After having a really good experience ordering a cake from them for my cousin's birthday, I decided to go with them again for my son's birthday. José really went above and beyond my expectations and we couldn't be happier with how it all turned out. The cake, cookies and cupcakes we're not only delicious and fresh but beautiful too. I got so many compliments on all. read more

As a cyclist i'm a big fan of "the spoon" as cyclists call it. It's a great spot in Nyack on training rides where you can relax and have a cup of coffee, eat some lunch, and chat away with other bikers on the bikes parked out front with the provided bike racks. A huge plus. Great service, fresh muffins and croissants. It's great that they offer sandwiches and wraps at half portions. Perfect for a training ride so that you are not overstuffed. I always go for the brie, turkey, cranberry wrap, a arnold palmer, and if in season a pumpkin apple crumb muffin. Moist on the inside and a crunchy top. Definitely taste the pumpkin and spices. Feels like Autumn when i bite into one. The croissants are fluffy and flakey with the layering that a croissnat should have. It's great as well that they offer containers of water outside as well for us to refill our bike bottles. It's a great local neighborhood spot as well as i see many locals stop by in the morning for breakfast, baked, goods and coffee. They serve up full breakfasts as well as my friend had a omelette and potato fries. It looked great and cooked superb. I'm going to order this next time i'm there. read more

Runcible Spoon Bakery - arnold palmer, croissant, pumpkin apple raisin muffin, and brie turkey cranberry wrap - Specialty Food Near Me - Nyack, New York

"The Spoon" is a bakery in Nyack that is a mainstay for all NYC cyclists. Given it is about 25 miles from Manhattan, it is perfect spot for a break, whether as the halfway point for a shorter ride or just a break point for a longer ride. I head to the spoon almost once a week on my Sunday rides. They serve soups, pre-made sandwiches, made to order paninis, as well as all the various cupcakes, cookies, muffins, brownies, etc. Their baked goods are excellent, especially the morning muffin, which is croissant ingredients poured into a muffin tray and cooked to fluffy, flaky goodness, with sugar sprinkled on top. Decadence. If you want healthy, they also have energy bars and fruit salads. The staff is really nice here. They even put out bike racks out front for their customers to park their bikes. A very nice touch. read more

1. Waited about 10 minutes at the counter before someone even poked their head out from the back 2. Upon noticing a customer, they still didn't come out or verbally greet us right away 3. Pretty sure Hershey's syrup isn't supposed to be an ingredient in a mocha latte, but what do I know 4. Threw my credit card on the counter instead of handing it back to me (major pet peeve of mine) 5. Desserts looked ok but upon eating it found that it was very old and my friend and I couldn't even finish our small shared treat 6. Started putting up the chairs at other empty tables earlier than closing time, felt like I was being rushed out 7. Up with insomnia now because my stomach hurts from my experience this afternoon. 8. Not planning to return. read more

This place is a Nyack institution. We used to come here back in college days for their "morning buns" - a delicious hybrid between a chewy roll, flaky biscuit, and sugared croissant. Now that carbs are much more of an occasional treat than a diet mainstay, "The Spoon" is mostly a memory of that bygone era. It's ridiculously popular with the biking crowd on the weekends I have found the staff to be friendly and pleasant. The space is large and comfortable. It's a friendly neighborhood spot that knows their clientele and caters to it. It's a few blocks down and to the left on Broadway, so not right on main crawl. Worth those few extra steps to try their pastries, if that's your thing. Catch those gorgeous views of the water as you come and go. Overall, recommend! read more

Wow so fun! Delicious cookies and carro cake to die for anything hear is amazing! I will be bringing my husband back.

Meh. Very underwhelming. 1130 in the morning on a Sunday, and they're running out of things. Biscuits and scones are rock hard. Staff looked like they didn't want to be there Very cold environment. Removed artwork that used to be there. Need music or something to make it more inviting. Picture of blueberry muffin says it all. One bloody blueberry in it Two stars are for the cinnamon rolls only. They're that good.. read more

Runcible Spoon Bakery - Blueberry muffin. Where are the blueberries? - Specialty Food Near Me - Nyack, New York

This place is alright. It's a cyclist hang out and the turning point for going back down toward Manhattan. On my first time coming here, I saw he giant muffins and other pastries in there. This is a good place to refill on carbs, caffeine to power your way back home. I didn't think there was anything remarkable about this place, but it was a welcome refuge when I came here on a cold winter day. read more

There was one person working the counter at noon on a Saturday. They were out of bagels and biscuits, so I got ham, egg & cheese on a roll. It was premade and literally thrown in a microwave behind the counter. It cost me $12.75(!) for that and a medium latte. There are so many better places nearby that are better options. read more

They have a great large menu with lots of options. The cutest pastries in adorable shapes (crabs, hearts, dragon flies, etc) but there was only one worker so it took almost 10 minutes just to get a smoothie. I haven't tried there food items yet but I look forward to it! read more

Runcible Spoon Bakery - Specialty Food Near Me - Nyack, New York

First time there. I got the hazelnut iced coffee and it's not good at all. Then I got a sausage , egg and cheese and it's average. Cheap but nothing special. Probably won't go again.. read more

My son used to buy cakes and tart from this bakery and it was great. So I drove 30 minutes to get a cake for my high school boy's birthday. There weren't many choices and non of cakes looked good so I decided to get a pear tart. Yes, I remember how delicious it was. But we were so disappointed. First of all, it was so hard like a rock and even my husband had hard time to cut. Then when I bit down to it, it has funny flavor and the coating on the pear is like a gunk texture like old dried up jam. So I just said, "Hmmm, it doesn't taste so good this time..." My husband said, " Do you know why? It's old. This must be a few weeks old." $18 is way too expensive for a week old tart. I wouldn't go there again. I could have gotten ice cream cake from Shoprite and it could have been much better. read more

Very cute place with a few outside tables. Great coffees, frozen lattes, wraps and baked goods. Casual and cute, a favorite with bicyclists.

A haven for cyclist. I have to admit, I was never one to stop for long periods of time during a long bike ride. That is not until I came to Runcible Spoon. The first time I came here I was surprised at the amount of cyclists lounging about, drinking their coffees, eating their muffins, etc. I didn't quite understand it really. But I was with other people who reassured me that I would love this place. And oh did I. The line on the weekend is long, but the service is fast and the staff is friendly. It's almost like they know how to cater to every cyclists' needs. Bananas, clif bars, hot chocolate, coffee, enormous muffins, grilled panini, PBnJ... I wanted it all. Without realizing it, I've become one of those cyclists you would see lounging about, eating a muffin, drinking a hot chocolate, laughing with friends and loving life...man, why can't life always be this easy? read more

As a Nyack local, Runcible Spoon bugs the shit out of me. Cyclists take over the town, the majority of them stopping here, and I'd say a good 50% are complete d-bags. SO...my review will be multi-faceted. Cyclists - Come here. You'll love it. You'll be among your kind and they serve hot coffee and great bakery items. Locals - Come here. But only early on the weekend (before 9:30am) or on weekdays. The serve hot coffee and great bakery items. If you do not heed my visiting time advice you will completely hate this place. Whoever you are - Order the Broadway omelette, with egg whites, and add avocado. It'll run you $13 (surcharge for the avocado) but it's well worth it. The potatoes that come on the side are some of the best breakfast potatoes I've ever had. Cheers, RS...You got me there despite my aversion to dealing with aggressive cyclists on a beautiful autumn Sunday morning. And I didn't regret it. read more

For 15 years my favourite place in all of New York for coffee and dessert and it is just a twenty minute walk from my high school. The coffee is great and very well priced against Starbucks, which is right up the road. The desserts are to die for. Every time i order a dessert it knocks me off my feet. Even the sandwiches are soooo good and very well priced. A great place and i can highly recommend it to any one heading for Nyack. read more

It's like they've given up but remain open anyway. We went in to find sticky, crumby tables, ants scurrying around scattered papers near the windows, a gross bathroom and awkward silence- we could practically hear the two people who were also there chewing. Music would do wonders. The food wasn't bad, and I agree this was at one time an institution, which is why I have returned, but it desperately needs new management. Just relying on the fact that bikers come every weekend doesn't seem like a good enough excuse. It's a tired, dirty place, sad to say. read more

This is a great bakery with plenty of options. This is a place that is frequented by many cyclists, myself included. They even put out water outside for us. They have all kinds of half sandwiches and tasty paninis as well as many different kinds of pastries. I had their blueberry scone which was excellent. It's not the typical scone as it is more shaped like a cookie. Their morning signature muffin is also pretty good. It reminded me of a croissant with the layers of dough with a sugar/cinnamon coating. read more

If you come when it's overrun by cyclists, yikes. But if not, it's a quaint little spot. I didn't eat anything, so I can't comment on the food, but the coffee was awesome. I like that they serve it in real mugs, not paper/to-go cups, which is more environmentally friendly. It's a nice spot that's a LITTLE off the main path in Nyack. read more

Meh - they live off the fact that they have bikers like me stop by here since they have proper bicycle parking- and lots of bikers to chat with. Service is basically non existent, dont be surprised if it takes 15 mins for an egg and bacon sandwich. Credit card minimum is $10 - and they wouldn't let me pay $9.56 with a card...just great customer services. There are much better places - and without the cycling community this place would have shut down years ago read more

I'm glad this place is around because it's a great location, has a great atmosphere, and they cater to all the cyclists who come through Nyack. However, the service and food leave something to be desired. Every time I've been in there, I've felt like a nuisance to the people working there, and the food never tastes fresh. That being said, for coffee and a pastry on the quick, it's just fine. read more

Why go to Starbucks when Runcible Spoon is around the block? Whenever I'm home visiting family in Rockland, I make it a point to spend time in the cafe with my laptop and a large mug of coffee. As for their baked goods, the (on the expensive side) Hanukkah cookies I recently purchased for family and friends were scarfed down in a few bites. read more

It's all true...the good and the bad reviews - what 's good is here is that dang 600 plus caloried Morning Bun! a fusion of croissant and cinnamon bun. It is a HOT MESS to eat.... So if you embarrass easily in public, either take it home to eat in privacy, or make sure you sit at a table with your back turned away from the public. you will be wearing cinnamon sugar all over your face and hands [hey cinnamon bun face!! yeah, you!]. You can get them before noon on weekdays, forget it on the weekends, the cyclers gobble them up before any any night owl just laid their head to sleep. ahem. If you miss the Morning Bun, then you're best bet would be the oatmeal muffin, i don't like muffins. I love these. perfect texture and not too sweet, if you're a coffee dunker, then this is OHHH YEAAAHH. Forget the coffee here. unless you like tasteless watered down crap. I brew at home, go to the bakery, drive home and eat the goods like it was a sloppy garden tomoto sandwich over the kitchen sink moment. You're best bet is get an Americano at Starbucks around the corner and join forces of your goods at either location. or just come over and get some damn privacy. read more

I only make my way to the Nyack area about once a year, and when I do I always make a point to stop by Runcible Spoon. Their muffins are seriously out of this world, meaning they're amazing enough for me to "forget" that I tend to stick to a gluten and grain-free diet. My recommendation? Grab a blueberry peach or apple crumb muffin and enjoy a nice walk by the waterfront. read more

Good scones. Decent coffee. Not so crazy about the $10 credit card minimum...they do realize that many people prefer to use credit/debit cards at coffee shops/bakeries, right? No ATM either. *womp womp* Overall, still a good food experience. Ill be back. read more

Food tasted stale and staff was blah.... the worst part was there were a million bikes blocking the door and it all.made for an unpleasant experience read more

Enjoy coming here for a latte and a bakery treat in the afternoon. It is very spacious inside with plenty of seating and natural sunlight. They have the local paper and magazines for you to enjoy as you sip/eat away. The muffins are always fresh- which is what I usually get. The staff is friendly. There is a $10 minimum to use a credit card. Although I haven't eaten lunch here before, the menu is pretty extensive. read more

If I could give less I would gladly do so. I Understand that this year is a tough holiday season for business and people, as I can relate as i work in the industry. But for a business employee to insult someone is another thing. My sister who's currently home after not being home for two years as she serving in the US Army, wanted to stop here today to have a breakfast at her favorite bakery. Not only did she get up very early to make sure the family got some fresh baked goods, but she went out of her way to walk down and surprise us. Upon entering she was questioned as if she was homeless? I'm not sure why that's a question you would ask a paying customer, or why you'd judge someone for how they are dressed. For her to deserve that disrespect is awful and terrible. Whoever made that comment should be ashamed as not only did you disrespect a loyal patron, you disrespected a US Army Solider. Words can't describe how much I see red right now with this business. Hope whoever made those comments has a great day, because you've now made a new family joke in the house. Never coming back. read more
