Delicious pastries, not too sweet-- but the sandwiches have wayyyy too much bread/other things ratio. I'm a HUGE fan of bread, and I say this.. Everything seems to have rye/caraway in it, so if you're not a fan .. read more

The Tipsy Baker - Bakeries Near Me - Manhattan, New York

It's such a shame when the many different restaurants under Rockefeller center have closed since Covid. In the ashes rises The Tipsy Baker. The Tipsy Baker is just like it sounds, you can order from the counter freshly baked items as well as a glass of wine or cocktail from the small bar. I have an eye exam scheduled so I want to sit, enjoy a latte and a freshly baked item. As far as the baked goods, they're made from Café d'Avignon. Café d'Avignon is an artisanal bakery café based in NYC. My wife finds a table and I order two lattes along with a small RUSS & DAUGHTERS SMOKED SALMON. Topped with crème fraîche and chives on a small brioche bun.This was the perfect bite for breakfast! A freshly made Brioche bun and sliced salmon, I could eat this every day and be happy. No problems with the staff, I ordered and my items were brought to the counter quickly. I'm not sure why past reviewers are mentioning them in their reviews. If you're looking for sophisticated spot to unwind, have a glass of wine and perhaps a small sandwich, The Tipsy Baker is a great spot to explore in Rockefeller Center. read more

Nice little eatery tucked in the basement of Rockefeller Center. They seated us quickly and then helped us out. The menu is smaller, but they have a nice selection We had a glass of Rosé and a parfait. The parfait was freshly made and tasty and the drink was decent. read more

While visiting one of the New York offices on a work trip recently, I decided to grab coffee with a colleague in the building which happened to be at Tipsy Baker. I ordered the Cappuccino and the bread pudding while she ordered a latte and the dark chocolate olive oil cake. Upon our return to the office, we split the deserts so we could try each other's as well. I didn't love the cappuccino... if that's even what you'd call it. There seemed to be no foam, no real creaminess to it and just tasted like a coffee with plain milk which was so disappointing. I also don't love how small the cappuccinos are, they were almost the side of a cortado. The bread pudding on the other hand was amazing! Before boxing it, they put an icing/ glaze all over it (they checked with me first) and it was delicious! My colleague tried it and she also thought it was really great! Unfortunately, her olive oil chocolate cake wasn't the same and was pretty dry/ tasteless. All in all, they do have one afternoon desert that was amazing but the cappuccino (which is what I went for) was pretty bad and the other items tried were also not great. Love the convenience, the cute aesthetic and the bread pudding but otherwise, I don't think I'd be back. read more

Though it can be hard to find in the maze under Rockefeller, the service was extremely fast (I ordered a parfait and it was made and brought to my table within five minutes) and the food was solid. There are a fair amount of tables in the restaurant, and it's indoors, which makes it a good place to escape the summer heat or warm up after ice skating at Rockefeller. While I wish the menu was a little bigger, it was an easy pre-work breakfast stop mostly meant for coffee and pastries. read more

So bad. Staff was super impatient and rude. They seemed annoyed when we asked our food items (containing eggs and cheese) to be warmed up. Even after warming it up my sandwich was completely cold. Do not go probably a health hazard! read more

This is a cute place on the concourse level of Rockefeller. I came here for drinks with a friend. The waiter was friendly though he didn't know the Wi-Fi password for the place which was unfortunate. The Prosecco was $15 a glass. I didn't try any food but would do so next time. read more

Staff was very friendly. Food was ok not many options. Great location if ya wanna be in the thick of things. Priced as ya would this for Manhattan read more

Few restaurants manage to impress me from start to finish. Their menu items never disappoint! They treat you well in an inviting environment. The staff is so helpful and welcoming and the people there are generally very nice. This place leaves nothing lacking. read more

Matcha was just ice and milk, very little matcha. Wouldn't recommend this place, kind of a scam to charge so much for a matcha just to not deliver it! read more

Although I haven't sat down and eaten here, I still had a good experience. The iced vanilla latte is really good, and it's pretty sweet but not overwhelmingly sweet at the same time. Service was great; the barista told me she might have forgotten my vanilla syrup, so to taste it and let her know-- which I feel like a lot of baristas wouldn't really care to do. Ambiance looked good from where I was standing to wait for my coffee too, it has nice yellow lights and waiters seem to be attentive. read more

The Tipsy Baker is my new go to bakery in the area in the morning. The baked goods are just fabulous and delicious. The coffee is strong but good. It is not cheap, but on par for this area. Try to cookies! read more

I ordered a small latte and a medium cappuccino. Latte's are typically made with a shot of espresso while the cappuccino is made with coffee. Both have steamed milk. There is a price difference on the menu with latte's espresso costing more. As the 2nd drink was slid across the counter and described as a medium latte, I replied that they got the order mixed up. The barista explained The Tipsy Baker's "little secret", both lattes and cappuccino are made with coffee and steamed milk". Nice to know there is no espresso used in a latte and you just ripped me off. Thank you. read more

The Tipsy Baker - Signage at Rockefeller Center - Bakeries Near Me - Manhattan, New York

We love Pain D'Avignon bread and are regulars at our local Cafe D'Avignon coffee shop, so when we heard that the same team would be opening a location that serves dinner and drinks we knew we would have to go. All of the food was excellent, served family-style and in small portions which meant we could try a little of everything. The staff was incredibly attentive and our sommelier was extremely knowledgeable, taking his time to help us pick out some outstanding bottles of organic and biodynamic wine. Overall, we could not be happier with the experience - this place blows everything nearby out of the water! read more

Nice quick bite if you're at the Rockefeller Center. Split the burger so they cut it in half for us and gave an extra plate, which is nice. Cute vibes and not too busy when we went on a week night. read more

The Tipsy Baker - Wagyu burger and tahini with bread. Yum! - Bakeries Near Me - Manhattan, New York

Coffee is good... & the pastries are also enjoyable... wife had a traditional mortadella sandwich that looked amazing & she thoroughly enjoyed. Understanding that it's NYC... Rockefeller Plz on top of that... & there's limited real estate... I get the push to move people in/out & prevent outside food. However, I find the attitudes & service wanting, a tad unpleasant... given that there's a bagel place across the hall & one of my party partook of it but was unable to eat w/ us in the restaurant. Make friends/be better neighbors. I've seen others make it work... in equally competitive situations (Rome, Paris, etc.). read more

The Tipsy Baker is a great place to sneak in to grab a hot cup of coffee on a cold day in da City when dragging visitors to Rockefeller Center (take the escalator downstairs from the NBC Studios Marquee, adjacent to the Observation Deck line)--once downstairs it's around the corner. Our group enjoyed a fresh baked scone, chocolate croissant, a bread pudding with lattes all around. The Topsy Baker wait staff is also quite helpful with seating & service--but be patient, as it's always a beehive in this part of NYC!! read more

The Tipsy Baker - Fresh slice of bread pudding with vanilla sauce. - Bakeries Near Me - Manhattan, New York

Ordered a vanilla iced latte and it was delicious!! My family ordered some hot chocolate and they seemed to enjoy it as well. The decor and feel of the space is also very clean and classy. Knocked two stars for employees. Went in to order with my family, and one employee went over to the podium by the door where I assume they welcome customers to sit after paying. We left right after we got the drinks since we were waiting for bagels next door. After the bagels, we went back. There were maybe 5ish employees at counter: one was taking orders, the rest were turned away chatting with one another, and no one stood behind the podium at the door. As my family sat, I stood and waited behind the customer ordering to ask if we could sit and eat. The employee at the counter made eye contact but no one else noticed me (I clearly wasn't trying to order as I already held their drink, wasn't standing where the line to order formed, and no one else was in line). They didn't acknowledge me again so I went and sat (the employee paying attention could've asked another to help me). Five minutes later, we're told we can't eat outside food, even if we bought drinks. If it was crowded or every table was taken, I'd understand but only two small families were eating. If they said we needed to purchase a food item from them to stay and eat, we would've easily done so. But they chose to have us leave when they could've made more money from us. There's also NOWHERE else to sit and eat in the mall unless it's a sit-down restaurant. Coming from out of state, it's little things like this that perpetuates the idea that "New Yorkers are rude", especially when they failed to monitor the entrance and let us know of the policy when we entered. I cannot remember the last time I've been told to leave an establishment because we brought outside food in. read more

Picked up a kale feta and almond croissant which were both excellent. Good bake and fresh. Got them at around 1030am. read more

Terrible service and rude people. Worst experience in midtown. They have blah food and coffee.

Authentic cuisine from the Adriatic Sea region. The Menu boasts a delicious selection of small plate options. There are also a few full plate selections to choose from. The wine list will invite you to try a new white or a full bodied red. The bar tender Jacob will also concoct any cocktail of your choosing. When you arrive Daniel will greet you warmly with his beautiful smile and guide you to your cozy table for the evening. The owner, Tole and his partners will welcome you and your party with open arms and treat you just like old friends. My friend and I felt the warmth and passion in all of our tastings and plate selections. Tole bakes the exceptional bread every day and it will probably be the best artisan bread you have ever tasted. The butter and aubergine spread are unforgettable pairings with the bread. For starters we shared the Ibérico Ham, the grilled peppers in raspberry balsamic vinaigrette, the goat feta cheese. Words cannot express the fresh flavors of these small plates. I hear that the steak tartare is their top selection! For our main meal we opted for the grilled octopus, the cheeseburger and pommes frites! The Octopus was grilled to perfection and the hamburger was mouthwatering perfect as well. Our server, Alina was exceptional in her careful explanation of the Menu items and making sure we received service that exceeded our expectations! Tole and his partners were very generous and made our evening extremely joyful and unforgettable! We also took home loaves of the most delectable sourdough bread and baguettes (yummy) Can't wait to return and savor every item on the Menu at The Tipsy Baker. This is a great destination for after work cocktails with friends and colleagues! read more

Tipsy Baker is one of my favorite spots in Manhattan. Not only is their coffee fantastic, but the cookies are to die for. I typically pick up a loaf of sourdough bread for the week which is super convenient considering my whole foods is always sold out of their Pain D'avignon loaves. Couldn't rate the staff higher (shout out Kiara!) - they always make my day. This place was the absolute best addition to the Rockefeller Center concourse. Please do yourself a favor and stop in next time you're in the area! read more

Kiara, Angie and Natie are absolutely the best always in a good mood introduced me to new para tries or dishes Very fast and always smiling They really make me go back every morning I used to stop at Starbucks or Ralph's coffee. Since I met this ladies I only make a stop here read more

Special thanks to the Tipsy Baker for providing our 26-person group with delicious sandwiches. The students and adults loved them. The food was great and the service was greater. We needed 26 sandwiches to go and they were able to get them to us while our kids shopped. Thank you! read more

The service was excellently paired with the fine wine and decadent food. The Mediterranean style tapas are perfect for light sharable plates in the cozy and elegant atmosphere. Very happy to have stumbled upon this restaurant. read more

Cute little place to duck in for a nice latte or glass of wine. Nice people and lovely bar. We had a yummy cookie too

We stumbled upon this cafe while visiting NYC last January and had to visit it again this November. Both times did not disappoint. The 5-star rating is based on their great food, atmosphere, and most of all the customer service. Such a great find in a great big city. Try the olive oil cake! Fantastic! read more

Ugh this place could be great but they choose not to be! There is a bunch of space to allow people to sit, yet it remains closed throughout the earlier part of the day. Great croissants but refuse to warm them up (besides the smiling tall gentleman working there - thank you) Breakfast sandwich is cold too - there's an egg on it? Strange and upsetting given the quality being great. Hoping for improvements, as it feels that the managing efforts being made are subpar. read more

Lots of confused employees. Not knowing menu options or pricing options. It was really uncomfortable. Very limited menu. Stay away from the firtata, not very well cooked. Other menu items like the Persian spread were delicious. The owner was very sweet. She noticed the confusion with her staff and gave us some complimentary baked goodies tofgo. read more

Delicious sandwiches, cookies, cakes and coffee. Service is swift and the staff is always friendly with a smile and will know your name if you're a regular customer. My favorite new spot. It should be yours too. read more

Service is slow, waitress with the long braid was so rude with an attitude, and the breakfast menu doesn't even have normal items so you have to Frankenstein together sides to get a normal breakfast with eggs. Would opt for 5 Acres in the concourse over this tiny spot. read more

We went and got bagels from across the way and we all got coffee at the tipsy baker, when we sat down we were told we could eat our food in there bc it was from another place although we had purchased and tipped for coffee there. the guy was rude and so unprofessional, pretty sure he was a manager,one of the worst service experiences ever, get a new manager. read more

The Tipsy Baker better dry out and pat attention! While this place looks like a charming addition to the Rock Center concourse with gorgeous lighting and furniture, the food is sub-par and the service worse. I came in with two coworkers for a quick class of wine and a quiche for a brief business lunch today. While the restaurant was mostly empty, it took us over 1.5 hours to get through our meal. I had the spinach quiche which tasted only like nutmeg - I could not taste the spinach or cheese. While eggplant appetizer looked great, it had a strange chicken taste. Five staff members spent much of the lunch service huddled in a corner next to the bar having a meeting. I love Pain D'Avignon and this spot has great potential - but right now it needs a lot of work. I'm disappointed. read more

Fantastic place with very caring and attentive staff. Particularly want to call out Kiara - she's always very friendly and goes out of her way to make sure everything is a pleasant experience and that customers are taken care of. She'll remember your name and order so you feel like a part of the community the next time you visit the place! read more

Oooooof so good. I've only gotten coffee and food from the takeaway section - so technically Cafe d'Avignon, but oh wow. Probably my favorite coffee near Rockefeller Center, and all of the baked goods I've gotten so far are very tasty. I'm a big fan of the olive oil loaves, they're a bit more dense than you think so very filling. The chocolate chip cookie is also really good. The turkey blt is my favorite splurge lunch. Everything here has been really good, the staff are really friendly and they keep the line moving even when it's crowded. Would love to try the actual restaurant portion soon. read more

I've been visiting Tipsy Baker regularly and it's always a highlight of my day. The coffee is consistently great and the service is exceptional. A special shoutout to Kiara who always goes above and beyond to make sure every visit is pleasant experience. Highly recommend! read more
