Amazing little yet not so little restaurant. They provide food to go, or you can sit indoors, out in the backyard or outside in front of the place. The environment is very tranquil, relaxing, and gives off positive vibes. There is free wifi and a water station available as well. Prices are pretty reasonable and you get your bang for your buck. The staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. Their food was amazing. I had the wake-up call for breakfast, and it was delicious. Every bite was a joy, and I would highly recommend it. Their coffee is also good quality. I had their cold brew black, and it was some of the best cold brew I ever tasted. I would also recommend their sticky walnut bun, with its sweet, soft, and nutty flavors blending well together. It's definitely one of the best places to come with family, friends, or just by yourself.

somehow keep missing out on the pastries i actually wanna try here but have been pleasantly surprised by the alternatives i end up with :-) tho the apricot danish was a bit underwhelming edit: it’s been a couple years since my first visit and my new favorite here is the breakfast sandwich! it’s a little pricey at $16 but filling and the toasted sourdough with the runny poached egg is just unbeatable.

Although the croissants and pain au chocolat were great, I think the highlight of this bakery so far, for me, were the two sourdough breads I got for home. They slice them up for you and are some of the best bread I’ve tried in my life. Would recommend getting a loaf if you’re ever around. Service is always super kind too! Will try the popular chocolate almond croissant next.

I was in the area for the grand opening of The Ripped Bodice bookstore but arrived quite a bit early so decided to find a place for breakfast and the Bakehouse was on my foodie list so off I went. First thing just walking in I was presented with the most beautiful and golden assortment of sweet and savory pastries. It was a bit of a challenge to pick just one as they all looked absolutely amazing and delicious. I went with the baked egg and bacon pastry and an iced coffee. It was so freaking delicious!! My taste buds were singing with how yummy and flavorful it was. I grabbed a sea salt chocolate chip cookie for the hubby on my way out. I definitely have plans to come back and try something else.

EDIT: The owner has clarified that the vanilla beans in the syrup cause the black specks in the latte. Although I do not personally enjoy the texture of the syrup, I was mistaken that this was an issue with how the coffee is prepared. I have adjusted my review accordingly. The pastries are 10/10, and the food is great as well. However, every time I've ordered a latte, it's been filled with coffee grounds. I tried the latte on 3 separate ocassions, and every time it's filled with grounds. The coffee is high quality, but the preparation is lacking. Please train your staff on how to make a latte without grounds in it.

Really a wonderful café bakery serving all kinds of baked sweet and savory treats, coffees & teas. My Irish scone was delicious and large, not too sweet, just the way I love a scone. There’s ample indoor and outdoor seating, with a lovely backyard with tables and sun umbrellas. I’m sure to return often!

SOFT FRESH BREAD!! So happy they decided to move and open out here. Delicious freshly made bread that sells out daily! If you stop in the morning thinking you can wait to pick up later in the afternoon - bad move. Get it right then. People are recognizing how good their goods are and gobbling them up immediately. Their pastries are also probably some of the best I've ever had around here. Moist and flavorful such as the blueberry Danish which I find is dry at OTHER locations and their blueberry muffin (did I detect some lemon in there?). The cinnamon muffin is another must have. Got a mocha to chill in back and that was also made well. In back you have this cute country like self-seating area to relax and enjoy company with friends. From there you can see the goods being made from behind a glass partition. There's also a nice backyard to top it off for warm days. The chocolate babka is always a great choice as is the chocolate almond croissant 🥐. They've even added more breakfast options for the weekend like an array of quiche and frittatas to choose from. Outdoor seating with covered umbrellas are now in front add another option to relax and eat. This place has it all!

Beautiful new place. The pastries on display look gorgeous (sadly can’t eat the vast majority as a vegan). Tried the avocado sandwich (asked to try it on sourdough). The sandwich was good and the bread was standout. The sourdough bread is sublime — chewy and complex, crusty and airy with a rich flavor. Definitely recommend the sourdough! Also tried the banana muffin which was great— not too sweet and had a nice chew. A great addition to the neighborhood. Do give this place a try!

4.5🌟 Turkey sandwich was very good, definitely worth getting the full sandwich and taking the other half to go if you can’t finish it all (just bc the cost of half is expensive). Breakfast tacos were also good, but towards the third one it got a bit too soggy and hard to eat. 95% of the pastries were gone by Sunday afternoon, but that just shows they’re pretty popular.

Bad service. Overpriced & inadequate food. I visited this cafe in hopes to enjoy a light lunch and pleasant ambiance along our exploration of Park Slope on my Birthday. Off first glance, the cafe is charming and offers a wide variety. After ordering, we asked if we could sit out front by the street. The empty tables were filled with dirty plates and utensils left by previous customers. We asked the woman who took our order if anyone was sitting there (clearly no one was) and she replied "I have no idea". We then asked if the tables could be cleared so we could sit. She begrudgingly walked by us, proceeded outside, threw the plates in the bin, and walked back inside. After saying "thank you", she didn't bother to glance our way. I received the avocado toast I ordered, which cost a whopping $18.78 (including tip) and laughed in despair. It was such a sad piece of hard sourdough bread with 4 tiny slices of tomato and a stale avocado. Won't be returning and wouldn't recommend. As someone who used to work in the service industry, it’s a shame to witness people underestimating the value of quality + friendly customer service.
