I found this spot while on my lunch break looking for food. After seeing the reviews I decided to check it out. It's a nice little shop and the workers here are all very nice. The baked goods here are of good quality and are worth the extra buck or two you may have to pay here. I usually get a Coconut Dream Bar, muffins, or their bread sticks. All are yummy and I recommend you check this bakery out. read more

I finally made my way out to Amy's Bread! Got a turkey and avocado sandwich, almond french toast and sticky bun. My friend got the grilled cheese and another friend got the soup. We were all sharing everything that we ordered. Sat down in the back at these tiny tables (really, it's not a place to eat in at... too small for a larger group of people) and dug into our food. The turkey and avocado was ok. Nothing really special about it. The grilled cheese was DELICIOUS. It had a really nice mix of cheese and onion that made it really tasty. Almost melted in my mouth. The goat cheese sandwich w/ olive tapenade was really good too, but nothing special about it. The next time we go, I am definitely going to get the grilled cheese! It was really delicious! The almond french toast was ok, it would definitely be better as a *real* french toast. The stick bun was very good, but could use more cinnamon and more of the "sticky." Otherwise, I would definitely return! read more

Reliable bakery right by Port Authority & Theater district. Ridiculously crowded due to the narrow setting of the store. But Amy's a dear friend of mine.. who cares if she's bad for me? Killer hot chocolates & scones! read more

******UPDATE******** I bought the sweets cookbook and I baked some things myself like my favorite being the ALmond Brioche Toast and the thing came out near exact like the ones they sell at the storefront-absolutely delicious! I say this because most cookbooks don't have their products end up exactly like the ones they sell but this did not disappoint. TO think of it, I miss the coming here after training down the street to get out of the cold and sitting down for a nice coffee and any of what they sell. EDIT-Feb 21. 2011 I also made the blondies they sell here since the blondies is also in the cookbook. OMG the accurateness of the quality product came out nearly identical. Mine came out like a giant circular 20" pizza so I cut it into slices like pizza and squares and they taste almost exactly like the ones I had in the store. Their book imparts the same quality of product sold in their stores. They don't keep secrets but they do share their joyful culinary recipes with all! read more

Very cute place near where I stayed recently. I only had a coffee and cupcakes, but my friends loved their potato soup, served with bread. I had their red velvet cupcake twice, two days in a row. Yummy. It is a small shop with a small dining area. The staff is very friendly and the line moves along quickly. read more

I believe what will stay in my memories most at Amy's Bread(Hell's Kitchen) is the Hustle & Bustle combined with a Minuscule scaled Bread Shop on a Sunday Morning. The Smorgasbord of Baked Goods selection put in a perfectly mouth-watering display really makes it purchase-favourable. I'm not local therefore not familiar with the pace, line-ups nor attitudes to expect but I'm glad to see how NATURAL it seemed to everyone else while my observations seem to note it as a unique experience as my first official Morning Meal in NYC. On top of the non-stop customer queue jamming thru the doorway, it was a surprising welcome to find some of the friendliest staff I've seen anywhere which is quite a bonus. During our stay, the staff really show enthusiasm and care towards each and every customer. 3.5 *Star* Almond Brioche Toast, Croissants, Cherry Cream Scones, Cappuccino. While Cherry Cream Scones and Croissants were a nice treat I found the Almond Brioche Toast to be slightly overwhelming on it's own. The Cappuccino worked well to contrast with the almond and sweetness. The one thing that worked for them also was their downfall as it's such a tiny little space where not all customers are able to consume on-site and had to ask in advance prior to deciding on making their meal To-stay or To-go while others couldn't maneuver comfortably in the narrow space. (-0.5 Star) read more

Review for cakes only. Deborah H. and my other friend raved about the cakes here, I decided to stroll over w/my two of my co-workers. Cute bakery. Everything looked so good, it was hard to decide what to get. But we stuck to our mission of trying the cakes. We ordered the coconut cream, red velvet, and black and white. The actual cake was delish for all three, but the frostings didn't blow us away. The coconut cake was similar to a pound cake consistency. The black and white is perfect for chocolate lovers. Slightly rich in chocolate, but good balance of cake and chocolate flavor. The red velvet cake was moist and fluffy (huge plus), but could have used a tad more chocolate flavor. Although I guess red velvet is supposed to have a subtle chocolate flavor. Overall, though, many bakeries don't make cakes that well and I think Amy's does. Many times, cakes come out too dry, but it's the opposite here, which makes this place great. The cakes could use a wee bit of work on the frostings though. I'll def be back for cakes, esp the red velvet, and I want to try some of the breakfast goodies next time (like the sticky buns). Until then.... read more

I landed at Amy's on my cupcake quest, and was overtaken with teh plethera of baked goodness spilling out of their shelves. My friend and I decided to order 4 things between the two of us, and the only reason we stopped there is we had 4 more places to hit up before our flight back to the west coast (which was in 4 hours). The cupcake I thought was just okay - they only had yellow cake with vanilla frosting that day. the cake was fairly moist, but more buttery than pudding, and I like my yellow cake leaning towards puddingness. The frosting was a bit too sweet for me, but after a cupcake tour, im starting to think this might be an issue with me and vanilla frosting - ive heard their butter cake with chocolate frosting is where its at. But the other stuff is really what won the 4 star rating. We also got a pear-almond scone with was DELICIOUS, chocolate sourdough bread which was also soft and used good quality chocolate so another winner, and finally the kitchen sink cookie (basically a chocolate chip cookie with oats and nuts) which while delicious, was not the best of this type of cookie I've had. I'd definitely go back, more to try the other enticements behind the shelf. my waistline hates me already. read more

Wow -- this is a gem of a place for HK. I found this place in '06 when I moved to the hood, and even though I've moved to Philadelphia, when I'm back home I'll make sure I stop in. Breakfast pastries are outstanding. Sticky buns that are killer, cherry cream scones that I could eat every day, soda bread that my Irish mother loves, and pain au chocolate that's simple and perfect. Combine that with some good, dark coffee and you've got a fantastic breakfast place. Breads and pies are great, too. Solid sandwiches, and the occasional surprise (chocolate pudding? OK!). So, why only 4 stars? Well, first of all, their muffins are not up to their other high standards. Yes, they do have a decent pineapple-rhubarb, but their blueberry is just... eh. The chocolate muffins are just too candy-like to eat. Also, for some reason, Amy's cupcakes are... terrible. I'm completely baffled by this. They're literally tiny cakes that have caved in the centre and are shaped like... cups. Almost like a cake-bowl filled to overflowing with icing. Yech. I'd actually like some cake with my icing. Whoever let this happen should be fired, simply for marring what could be bakery perfection. read more

If you're ever in the area (which literally could mean Hell's Kitchen, Times Square, or midtown) this is your spot for lunch. I'm pretty biased since my family's been frequenting this place for years, but I can honestly say I've tried a wide range of what they offer from their hot chocolate and black & white cookies to their grilled cheese. Try to go at off-hours (like not directly at lunch time) because there's not that much space for a line and it can lead out the door if it gets crowded. Once you get inside, though it's definitely worth it. The staff is friendly and speedy, and there is a seating area in the back if you don't want to take your food to go. The only negative comment I can give Amy's is that they sometimes randomly run out of soup in the middle of the day and some drinks honestly take forever to make... but that's not enough to stop me from going back. They offer catering services and are great to order birthday cakes, cupcakes, etc. My top picks: hot chocolate, black & white cookies, tomato soup, mini tuna sandwich. I tried the grilled cheese one day, and it wasn't for me - pretty spicy and had too much "stuff" in it to complicate the simplicity of a good grilled cheese. Overall, definitely worth the walk and the wait - perfect for a take-away lunch or a quick catch-up with friends or coworkers. read more

Hopefully it was just an off day or something, but my wife and I ordered 2 Parisian breakfasts (half a bagget, jam, and orange juice) and a croissant. We both ordered the bread to be toasted and yet the bread came out cold enough where you couldn't butter it. The jam wasn't anything special and the croissant could've been from Costco bakery for all I know. Maybe the coffee is amazing and so are the cookies, but from what we ordered this place was a let down. Wouldn't suggest it to others. read more

Amy's bread is positioned between the two offices I shuttle between for work so I dropped by for lunch one day... what a find. If I could pick one thing on their menu, it would be their walnut raisin loaf. Yes, it is probably the best bread I've had so far that I could eat it without toasting. I didn't particularly like their other sweets or bread sticks but that I'm addicted to that bread! If you're questioning "Then WHY only 3 stars?", chalk it up to service. During the last visit, they were not busy at all and it took 15 minutes to ring up a coffee and a loaf of bread because the cashier was busy windexing something in the behind the counter and continued to do so after seeing customers wait. I am hoping this was a one time event. Nevertheless, I will continue coming to Amys for walnut raisin.. read more

Not sure what the hype is all about... ...except their hot chocolate is very good - thick and very chocolatey. I'd certainly go out of my way for another one of those mugs. The last time I was there, they kicked us out, but sent each of us home (there were four in our party) with our own party favor bags of goodies. It was packed with bread and a variety of other treats. With all the varieties, this was their chance to woo me, in the event that the past few times I just happened to order the wrong items. Nope. I didn't like anything. Owell, I'll just get hot chocolate the next time my boyfriend, Kevin C, wants dessert from there. read more

I'm going to hit every bakery in New York City, order the best thing they have and hopefully learn something along the way. We finally made it to Amy's Bread for a little taste of heaven in Hell's Kitchen. People were lined up outside the door. But what do you expect. It's holiday time in NYC and we're in the middle of midtown. Generally, I make it a habit to avoid these parts during December (actually, I make it a year-round habit), but I've been wanting to try Amy's Bread for weeks now. And today it was happening. No matter what. The place is small, but it's filled with more goodies than you can count. (More than I could.) My head ping-ponged all over the place: Fresh baked breads all along the back wall. Cupcakes, pies, cakes and brownies to my left. Scones, muffins and more bread to my right... To try to pick one thing seemed impossible. .. So instead, I had a nice, long sampling of 7 different things (plus a homemade hot chocolate) courtesy of Myrna. She's been working there for 10 years. Clearly, she's the one to ask should you need help, advice or oxygen. Everything I tried was good enough, that I'd order it again (and again). But since I'm a sweets fan, my best thing I had had to be the Butterscotch Cashew Bar. It is a must try. The butterscotch is exactly as I think butterscotch should be. It's sweet, but not too sweet. (Yes, even I have my limits on certain things.) And it's nice and soft. When you bite into it, it nearly melts in your mouth. More importantly, it doesn't get stuck in your teeth. The bottom layer, a mix of graham cracker and butter, balances it all out quite nicely. Sweet or not, food tastes better when it's fresh. I know. I know. That sounds simple. But some bakeries seem to have a hard time with that. Amy's, not so much. This project is brought to you by an embarrassing meltdown. See more: http://sweetmeltdown.weebly.com/ read more

This is a solid neighborhood bakery. Nothing fancy, but I take comfort that it's a member of the slow food movement and that I see them up and at 'em when I'm on my way to work in the morning. Have you ever known a good baker who didn't get up at the crack of dawn? no way! While I like the concept of this bakery, I didn't like the chocolate pecan cookie that I got. I liked neither the whole wheat baguette nor the black sesame seed roll I purchased. Also, I was not too impressed by "their most popular item," a glazed breakfast-type pastry with raisins, so why do I still go here? Well, it's on my way home, and they have samples in a basket on the left when you walk in and despite the fact that I've seen people grope around for a piece, I am American and go for things that are free. I guess I miss grocery stores that let you sample things like this bakery. And hey - on my last visit I tried gingersnaps and even though I'm not a huge gingersnap fan they were pretty good. Not too much ginger, not too hard, but just the right consistency, letting me know they had been baked the same day I bought them. And on the faith of items being baked the same day I bought them (unlike whatever they sell at the Bread Factory), Amy's bread, I'll keep going back. I know I'm going to find something I love at your store one day! (your cakes and cupcakes look pretty delicious, and I'm sure your sandwiches would look better if I was able to stop by during my lunch hour) so you keep trying and I'll keep eating okay? read more

My friend and I got here right after it closed, but the staff were kind enough to let us in since there were still one or two customers inside. We got the vanilla and chocolate cupcakes along with a slice of the red velvet. The cupcakes were fairly moist but I think the frosting was a bit too sweet. The red velvet on the other hand was a let-down. The cake part tasted like vanilla with red dye in it since it was missing cocoa/chocolate while the frosting was just a regular cake frosting that was a bit too bland and too creamy instead of a cream cheese frosting. I guess we should have tried some bread since it's Amy's Bread not Amy's Cakes. read more

Everyone knows how good the bread is. Once my husband and I bought a baguette here and carried it back to NJ, 'nuff said. However, Amy's also carries sandwiches, salads, and soup, a great option in the Midtown wasteland. My one quibble is that the sandwiches are pre-made. For a sandwich like their white bean puree, that means that the otherwise tasty bread is usually soggy by the time you eat it. It also makes it so you can't customize your sandwiches. I know it's hard since the space is so small but it's too bad they can't make at least some of their sandwiches to order. I know I'd stop by there more often as a lunch destination. read more

I walked several blocks out of my way to try out this bakery based on Yelp reviews and loved it so much I went back the next day and brought my wife to try it! The bread here is amazing! I actually intended to order a breakfast sandwich after reading a positive review of them on yelp, but was told by the staff that they don't sell breakfast sandwiches - oh well. Instead I ordered a cherry cream scone and pain au chocolate (chocolate croissant). I'm not usually big on scones - they're usually dry. But this scone wasn't dry, the cherries were good, and the bread was fall-apart delicious. The croissant was perfectly crisp on the outside, buttery/flaky on the inside, with just the right amount of chocolate. Delectable! My wife had their sticky bun, which I tried and also recommend. They also have great coffee. The joint is tiny, but the staff is nice and it's some of the best bread I've ever had. I just wish there was one near me! read more

Dear Amy, Thank you for providing me with the utmost delicious foods/treats that always manage to perk up my day. I like that you have three locations around NYC, so I know that I don't have to travel too far to get my sweet tooth fix. Your shop is quaint, classic and has that home-y feeling. I know that I can always look forward to the highest of quality products at your store. As for your breads... hearty, crusty, chewy and (using the European method) shaped by hand. I must admit, I could probably eat a loaf by myself. But I won't. I can always expect a good variety since you make over 20 different loaves a day. All carefully handled with love and care. And we cannot forgot about the desserts and pastries. Your cupcakes were moist and flavorful. So far I've tried: carrot, red velvet and vanilla -- all delightful. The muffins (Zucchini Carrot Apple Walnut & Blueberry) brought me on a trip down memory lane. And that Pain Au Chocolat... heavenly. So what I'm trying to say is thank you Amy. Your food brings smiles to many faces and adds inches to many people's waistlines. (Hey you gotta take the bitter with the sweet!) Sincerely, Katie read more

I feel bad only giving you 4 stars, Amy, considering the fact that your cake was so moist* and light, your line moved quickly and efficiently, my best friend RAVED about your chocolate cake, your packaging and presentation is so cute AND you're cheaper than some cupcake places down where I'm from. But I just don't like a buttercream on my red velvet cupccake! And not just any buttercream, but an excessively buttery Italian buttercream. I'm sorry Amy. It's me, it's not you. Well, maybe it's a little bit you. I hope we can still be friends. ---- *I hate this word as much as you do, but really, what else can I say? Your cake is so damp? Um, ew. read more

I don't mean to be a hater. Really. Because I love me my carbs. But it's called Amy's Bread! The bread should be to.die.for, no? I had no idea what to get, but then felt rushed to place an order. Sure, people, there was a mini-line. But it was 10am on a Sunday! So, I quickly pointed at two bread twists that looked tasty enough. Since the "seating area" pretty much only accommodated about 3 people sitting on top of each other, I headed out the door. What I snagged: - Foccacia Raisin Twist. - Chocoholic Twist The chocoholic twist sounds like it would be amazing. Chunks of chocolate + bread. Carbs and fat -- always a good combo. Meh. I was unimpressed. The chocolate was kinda bitter (I would've swooned if it was milk chocolate). And the bread was a little flaky. Despite it having about a pound of butter. Just call me butter ball! ... And now, I love me my foccacia. Probably my favorite sandwich bread. But this was already a little cold and a little hard (at 10am!). And the raisins weren't really sweet. Oh, and the bread was very oily. Like leaving oily palm prints everywhere. I felt as greasy as an Italian Fonz... Oh and yeah, later that day, I checked on my bread leftovers and found paperweights in their place. Sorry Amy, but I just wasn't feeling it. read more

You heard it here, straight from the mouth of the Ultimate Coffee Snob - the coffee is OFF THE CHAIN. Dark, brooding, drinks like a meal. They have soups now that it's nippy out - offerings change daily, 2 soups per day, among them things like Mulligatawny and Chicken and Lentil. Line is usually out the door, and you can probably guess why. It's only near equivalent here in Philadelphia is Metropolitan Bakery, and you should only plan to go in if you feel like A: being sd you won't eat any pastries or bread B: ready for sensory overload and the song "Pure Imagination" from Willy Wonka playing in your head, or C: ready to do something lovely and romantic like share a baguette and a jar of preserves with a friend. New favorite Manhattan coffee, bet. read more

This place used to be good! I have stopped shopping here various times cause i always feel the staff behind the counter feels like they're doing you a favor by letting you shop there. I have also complained about the quality of their biscuits but i guess Amy makes too much money from tourists to care what the neighborhood patrons have to say. Well, if you Googled what a biscuit is supposed to look like and go take a picture of their biscuits, other than the country biscuit, they look terrible. Dear Amy, people eat with their eyes too. Get your "executive pastry chef" to re train people at your production kitchen cause the quality has surely gone down the toilet! read more

Mmmmm Fatty like cake ! Delicious devils food cupcakes ..I will try the sandwiches next time, they look really good and the staff are really friendly. Recently moved offices ,so this is but a block away ,could be a problem however ....fatty like cake. ...I can also recommend the French ham sandwich with cornichon and the roasted vegetable quiche. in fact based on this I have decided to upgrade Amy's to a five -star joint read more

Dear Amy-- thanks for adding some cushion to my non-existent hips! Seriously though, how can I not love this place? Everything, and I mean everything (if your a baked goods lover) is GOOD!. Try the cherry chocolate bagel and their brioche (you cannot go to Amy's without trying their famous brioche!). My tastebuds are already craving its sweet buttery goodness with its crispy edges...yummm. Amy's is so good and so fresh, I shipped an entire box of their pastries to my aunt in Asia, and they were STILL fresh when she received them! =) A little peace of heaven in Hell's Kitchen! Thanks Amy. read more

I came solely for the cupcakes and instead left with 5 rolls of bread, 2 slices of red velvet cake, and 3 cupcakes. The red velvet cake is pretty magnificent, very light but savory. The cupcakes are supposedly #2 in the city behind Sugar Sweet Sunshine but they were a little too dense for my taste. Didn't get to try the bread considering my dad ate them all in one sitting, but I guess his eager consumption can speak for itself. read more

My friend kept telling me about how delicious their baked goods are, so I decided to drop by during one of my aimless walks across the city. I got the cheese and scallion scone and it was good! Def. worth dropping by, just make sure the person infront of you doesn't grab your order by mistake ;) read more

People who work here are extremely (genuinely!!) friendly. You can't go wrong with their cookies (white chocolate cherry chunk - oof), and cupcakes. More than the Semolina with raisins & fennel, which theyre known for, I digged their Pumpernickel bread w raisin and currants. Yum!!! read more

When my boyfriend turned out to be a complete sociopath, my one enduring consolation was a slice of Amy's cake. Yellow cake with chocolate frosting, double chocolate, red velvet, pink frosting --- yes, he was that bad. The double chocolate cookies are also my thing---so moist and chewy that you want to savor every bite, and the cookie just goes on forever. I try to limit myself to one visit per week. Oh, but the lattes are way overpriced. You pay for a Starbucks-size venti but get a tall. No lie. And $1 for soy?!?! Oh, no busta. Service is inconsistent. Nasty hipsters or make-me-smile sistas. read more

OK...I personally love Amy's bread. The prosciutto peppercorn bread is my all time favorite BUTTTT..if you want fresh bread be there early & be sure to eat it that day! Don't think you can save it for the next day because it will be hard as a rock.. If you're looking for a quick bite of carbs stop here & enjoy THAT DAY :) read more

If you're in Hell's Kitchen & are remotely thinking about coffee & a sweet treat, you should drop by. I haven't tried any, but the savory items & bread look great. Thanks for being so friendly. read more

Location/Area: EXCELLENT. Not too far from Times Square/Theater District. Safe and very "neighborhood friendly" type. So cute! They have an array of baked goodies to choose from (i.e. cupcakes, cookies, bagels, etc)! and the coffee is DELISH! Sadly, my cupcake was EXTREMELY hard and dare I say OLD. I didn't even bother to tell them and get something else... thinking I'd get another dry, stale, cupcake so, I left it overturned on my plate. To our surprise as we sat to enjoy our coffee, which BTW they have AMPLE space with plenty of tables/chairs to enjoy, sit and relax. An employee walked by and noticed my overturned cupcake and asked "was there a problem?" Explained what happen... in turn he replies "that's unacceptable, my apologies, allow me get you a new one." We thought that was EXTREMELY nice of the guy who said "how is it? better?" Indeed it was readers!!! Great customer service!!! Needless to say this place is CLEAN, FRIENDLY AND DELISH! In the area, give it a try you won't be disappointed! read more

this is a pretty popular shop in the area, I had the grilled cheese (tuscan sandwich), and it was ok.. do make sure you ask them to grill it to make it better. I'd say the sandwich is just average. read more

Got a bunch of cupcakes for a friend's birthday on a Sunday afternoon, and they only had the chocolate with vanilla, vanilla with chocolate, and devil's food cupcakes left. The staff behind the counter were efficient, borderline curt, like robots in an assembly line. The space by the counter was tiny and narrow, but opened out in the back with some seating. Their cupcakes were taller than the average cupcakes - their baking cups fold out an extra cm so it's easier to pull out the cupcake... unique, but not sure how necessary that is. The cakes were very moist, not too sweet, almost like a red velvet. The frosting was very dense, poorly sifted/blended that we could taste the confectioner's sugar, and certainly too sweet for us. Overall, we thought the cupcakes were pretty good, but there was so much frosting that we left chunks of it on our plates. Their cake slices and breads looked delicious so I'll def come back to try those. read more

What a wonderful little bakery!! You know a place is good when there is a line outside the door. I picked up some coffee cake and a coffee. I tied to eat it in the cafe, but like most places in NY, there was nowhere to sit. I took my coffee and cake to Bryant Park to enjoy. On an unrelated note, Improv Everywhere made a surprise visit to Bryant Park adding to the enjoyment of my Amy's coffee cake experience. Don't miss this place!!! read more

My building started offering complimentary Amy's bread pastries in the morning. Now, every morning is exciting. It's a dash to the lounge every morning to see what is left. (Sometimes I even set my alarm early to make it down in time for these scrumptious pastries!) On good days, there are plenty of chocolate croissaints. On bad days, I am sad to see empty boxes. Nevertheless, what a great start to my day every morning! Some of my favorite pastries in the city. I love the chocolate croissants here! They're incredibly buttery, flaky, crispy with just the right amount of chocolate (most places don't put enough). Anytime I have one for breakfast it basically makes my morning. When I'm trying to be "healthy" I get the low-fat applesauce doughnut, which is quite large, so I'm guessing it unfortunately doesn't make a difference in the number of calories I consume. I actually really love it and would have no idea it was the "healthier" option unless you told me because it tastes delicious but just isn't too sweet. The coconut muffin is quite delicious and my roommate's favorite pastry. It has a hint of coconut subtly infused throughout -- the only reason I realized it was coconut was because of the coconut shreds incorporated throughout the muffin. I've also tried the savory scone (good if you like salty things), berry bran muffin (not my favorite), blueberry muffin (good but nothing special) and the cinnamon snail (quite yummy but also huge). Thinking about how many pastries I've consumed from Amy's Bread makes me realize that I'm probably 5 pounds heavier solely because of Amy, but this place has some of the best pastries in town so I don't regret it one bit! read more

I am a hidden carbophile, and Amy's Bread is quite good at coaxing it out every once in a blue moon with their enticing displays (and especially when they have the almond brioche). Their bread is generally above average for Hell's Kitchen neighborhood, but not the best I've had. So, about that almond brioche. It's ridiculously delicious and greasy, in a sinfully delicious way. Their almond butter/spread is absolutely addicting and very aromatic; I totally inhaled the whole thing in a matter of minutes. However, they're usually gone by midday so be sure to arrive earlier to get your piece. Their cookies are average, nothing special, and quite sweet catered to the average American palate. The bread twists serve as a portable snack, as there are a variety of flavors such as rosemary, walnut, parmesan, chocolate, jalapeno, and more. However, the actual carb texture is not as soft and chewy as I would prefer. Their grilled cheese with veggies are very yummy and I'm a big fan. The cheddar biscuits are quite filling and extremely cheddar-y, and the multigrain roll that comes with their salads are solid and delicious. One tip is to come as early as possible, when the bread is freshly baked and the selection diverse. By the end of the day, you're stuck with the leftovers and the not-so-popular selections. I will be back in hopes of landing that almond brioche again! read more

I like this location for several reasons. 1) It's open late. Very late. 2) I used to live nearby. Now that I no longer live nearby, I'd still go to get the following: 1) Brioche loaf. 2) Raisin challah loaf. Which I would use (in descending order of preference) to make French toast. I didn't care much for their lemon meringue, and I haven't bought much else. read more

I came in to try their red velvet cake. It was just ok. The cake itself was good but I really did not like the frosting. It wasn't cream cheese frosting and tasted kind of gross. Disappointed. I thought this place was going to be good. read more

Stopped by on our way out of the city to get a loaf of bread. Yum! A lot of the reviews are complaining about the cupcakes but this place really shines if you come for their namesake item. We got a tangy sourdough which was great. Nice and crunchy crust with a moist and bouncy dough. It wasn't the most sour a "tangy" sourdough might be but it was just right for everybody in the family. Loaf is relatively small but perfect for 1-2 people. We tried one of their cupcakes, not sure which, and it was delicious, too. Most cupcakes in the city at the "hot" cupcake joints like Magnolia taste artificial, not here. That's butter in there! Quite a dense cupcake, maybe too dense for some, and the frosting was just OK. Definitely coming back for more bread. read more
