Amazing bakery - there is nothing from their menu of 15-25 items (different # on weekdays vs weekends) that you should avoid, which is amazing for a bakery with such diverse offerings - from rhubarb danishes to savory croissants, cinnamon rolls, etc. Go when you have a chance!

Fantastic bakery. Sweet and savory pastries are both excellent. Especially the croissants - shatter-crispy butter crust with tender interior and rich fillings. Zaatar cheddar croissant and jalapeno cheddar biscuit are absurdly good. Line forms early on weekend mornings, and is all outside. Strong contender in the Librae / Radio Bakery tier. Highly recommend!

Wow. Incredible pastries, probably some of the best I’ve had. Be forewarned tho, I think you’re all but guaranteed a line when you go. If you have some time to spare tho, I think it’s worth the wait.The chocolate croissant was AMAZING, and the cinnamon roll was really good too (which is saying a lot for someone who really only likes them when they have frosting on them… this didn’t and was still delicious!).I don’t think they have places to sit and eat inside from what I could see? When I went in the morning, there was a line outside and you went right inside the door when it was your turn to order.Heads up - they apparently run out of things very quickly! So get there earlier if you want to be guaranteed what you want!

Horrible classic croissant. Embarrassing it’s on any list. Librae and La Cabra if you want a croissant.

Better croissants than in Paris. Must be the best in NYC.

I live down the block and come here often, favorites are definitely the cinnamon roll (not too sweet, so perfect), all of the croissants but love the za’atar the most, and this orange danish was beautiful and so light and delicious - you cant go wrong but you can definitely miss out on the best stuff if you go too late. try getting in line before 10am for the best variety of options.

Heard good things about this place and I finally made the trip to try their croissants and it was worth it. I went around 11am on Sunday and there was no line at all.We got the ham&cheese and plain ? and they were so flaky and buttery — an epitome of good croissant!Definitely one of the best croissants I’ve had in New York and will visit again to try their sweet croissants next time.

Amazing place! The croissants are really great. I also tried la bicyclette and nick and sons are the clear winner by far! Their bread is delicious too.

Went around 10:30am on a cold Saturday morning. Waited in line for 10ish minutes. They still had probably 1/3 of the menu and we got a ham and cheese croissant, plain croissant, sourdough and pear danish. Everything was delicious and light. Do recommend!
