Interior was super cute and smelled amazing. The pastries all looked delicious, and I ended up getting a green tea crepe cake.

Had this place bookmarked for a long time and I finally tried it last weekend. I came here on a…read moreSunday at around 2 with my husband. The counter was emptied when we first came but it filled up pretty quickly. We just got a matcha latte and one prix fixe menu to share. For the main dessert, we picked the chocolate and hojicha soufflé. The chocolate soufflé was light and airy and not too sweet. It paired very well with the hojicha ice cream and caramel apple on the side. Overall, all the dessert was pretty good but everything was very small and I don't think it tasted that good that it worth $30. The service was also not that great. My husband and I were a little confused when we first got into the store and we weren't sure if we needed to be seated. A lady that worked there saw us but never greeted us nor gave us water until we asked. It took a while for someone to acknowledge us and it just made us felt a little uncomfortable.

Penny has a really great approach to designing wedding cakes! During our consultation, we didn't…read morehave a very clear idea of what we wanted. Luckily, Penny was full of great ideas! She asked us questions about what vibe we were going for, what our venue was like, and what was important to us both aesthetically and sentimentally for the cake to reflect. We were already feeling pretty good about Penny after one phone call with her. THEN we tasted the cake. It was MUCH higher quality then the two other bakers we tasted cakes from. After that we were sold. We hired her to a design a wedding cake that reflected the venue (a rooftop farm in Brooklyn). She came up with the really cool idea of designing a cake that reflected the distinctive bluestone pathways and wildflower groves that distinguish the venue. I felt like I had a unique, meaningful work of art at my wedding! She handled all the logistics of getting the cake to the venue with our coordinators so we did not need to deal with any of that ourselves. Penny is a true pro!

The name illustrates its flavors and consistency exactly - the bar has this chewy cake base serving as a platform for the smooth, sweet, gooey, buttery amazingness that sits atop. The very top is golden brown perfection with its subtle caramelization adding a little extra something to the bar. Each bite taken melts in your mouth. Ohmygosh - its so good! The Gooey Butter Cake is $3.75 a slice - so it's not a 'purchase everyday' treat - but if you're out exploring East Williamsburg this weekend be sure to pick up a slice!

Whenever I visit New York, I have to save room for Martha's! The restaurant is surprisingly…read morespacious--especially for a NYC café, and the music is always on point. Service is fast; they take your drink order almost as soon as you sit down. I love taking a moment to browse all the desserts in the display case because there are so many options, and I appreciate the variety every time. This visit, I tried the Bread pudding, Carrot cake, and Berry Napoleon. The bread pudding was my favorite--they don't skimp on the serving, it heats up well, and it's perfect to take on the go without worrying about the texture later. The Napoleon was also great; the cream was delicious and not overly sweet. While I'm usually a big carrot cake fan, this one leaned towards being too sweet for me. The cake itself was good, but the icing was a bit too much -- I had to toss the icing. I highly recommend trying Martha's if you're ever in the area!

She was not wrong! My son has an egg allergy, so we decided on a vegan chocolate cake with a dairy frosting. She made a beautiful chocolate cake with the beautiful flowers on top. The cake tasted like a regular cake, and you couldn't tell it was vegan. It was just incredible. Amy's chocolate chip cookies are my favorite, and I also really enjoy her rosewater scones. The day I picked up the cake for my son's birthday, I also got my mom a slice of vanilla coconut cake which I froze for her visit 2 weeks later. She loved her cake, also. There is literally nothing bad you can have her, and her new partnership with Gratitude Leaves is amazing. Gratitude Leaves also has beautiful flowers, so you can get your cake and flowers at the same time.

They do have maybe 4 tables and some seating by the window for people to have coffee and a pastry but that's not what they are really set up for - no wifi and no restrooms for longer visits.

The coffee was just OK, lots of competition in Brooklyn but I don't have an overview on the cakes or pastries - something to try next time. For just the cafe, it's a-ok.

My husband one year later stumbled upon a reel of their chorizo burrito and was motivated to go. I was surprised that they renovated and it is soo much bigger and more accessible. The bathroom also has a changing station. Chorizo burrito was about a 15 min wait at 10am and I'd say that wasn't too bad compared to the amount of ppl who came in after us. As we waited, we munched on a ube black sesame mochi butter muffin. Tasty and chewy, a bit tough on the edges but overall not too sweet. We shifted our attention to the domino table and played a short game with our little one, and it was great! Once the burrito was ready, we chowed down and it was delicious. You have the option of adding or subbing it with avocado. The green sauce also gave it an extra kick that makes it super satisfying. So much flavor and ingredients packed into this one burrito. Love the change. I'll definitely be swinging by more often. Props to you all!

The first time I had it, it blew me away, but as I returned, I've been less impressed. I feel like an improvement they can make is adding different textural elements. I think something crunchy inside would really take it to the next level. Overall, it does have great flavor, and it's definitely worth trying, but I do think there are better ones in the city. Their chocolate chip cookie is also really solid. One thing that I think is a miss is their ube mochi muffin. It was a little dry and a little bland, so I think you can skip that one on your visit. The line can be long, but they move it as efficiently as possible. The staff is very friendly, and I do like their outdoor seating options on a nice day.
