    Almond Croissant. Cinnamon Roll. Ham & Cheese Croissant. Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookie.
    Lillian H.

    I was in the area on a random Wednesday morning and decided to try my luck. To my surprise, there was no line or wait time and there was ample seating. The music was very calming, setting the tone to allow for a break from the hectic world outside. The staff were pleasant and helpful. FYI there's a bathroom located on the second floor. The ham and cheese croissant was my favorite! Their pastries are so flaky on the outside yet so moist on the inside. L'Appartement 4F is definitely worth the hype. Pro Tip: come before 9:30am on a weekday to avoid the crowds and noise. I will definitely be back.

    My favorite bakery in The Heights! It is truly such a delicious amazing bakery that I have no complaints. Well that's a lie, my one complaint is that I wish the mini croissant cereal wasn't sold out so often! But how can I blame them because their stuff tastes SOOOO good? I've been to France multiple times and let me tell you this place is the real deal! The space is typical of any spot in the city, not super big. Expect when you come there will be a line because they are that good, so prepare yourself and don't be annoyed! Service is quick and kind! I love how the staff recognizes regulars it gives off such a family environment. This is 1 of 2 locations. I wish they would expand!

    Loved this bakery, particularly the cinnamon bun and the chocolate chip cookie. Expect a line on the weekend but moves fast. I liked that there was ample seating upstairs.

    Croissants were lovely: chewy and flaky. I loved the pistachio paste for the pistachio one. The cinnamon roll was also soft and chewy with great icing. And the chocolate chip cookie too. ~10 minute wait at 10:30 AM ish. There was a bit of a line, but it moves pretty quickly.

    The pistachio rose croissant was yummy. Could've been flakier. Unfortunately considering all the hype I'm not sure it was really that mind blowing of a croissant. Luckily the line on Saturday afternoon wasn't too long but they did run out of savory items.

    A long line on a saturday afternoon after checking out the cat cafe nearby (its very cute). The line moved way faster than expected and all told we only waited less than 10 minutes surprisingly. The two pastries were absolutely delicious, up there with all the great bakeries around NY. This place deserves a visit if you're nearby! There is also a lot of seating and a restroom upstairs.

    Unfortunately this croissant felt a little underwhelming to me. Didn't really flake, tasted almost like a common Costco croissant to me... maybe I got a dud. Nothing wrong with Costco croissants, but I thought this would have tasted better/different. Waited on line for half an hour for this and a chocolate croissant that also turned out to be just fine, nothing to write home about.

    Obsessed with this spot - it's worth the wait to be able to enjoy one of the rose pistachio croissants but everything I've ever had there has been delicious. Don't sleep on the sourdough either!

    Such a cute little bakery in Brooklyn! There's a small area to order on the first floor, and then ample seating on the second. It's a cute little cafe that gives you Paris vibes. I got their chocolate croissant and it was sooo good. Flaky, buttery, and the perfect amount of chocolate. My husband got their Salted Maple latte, and really liked that too!

    idk what those lower rating reviews are talking about lOL you haveeee to get the CROISSANTS!!!! First off the line builds up and get pretty long since it's a small space. And once they sell out they close! Get there early during opening 10am -11am The line moves pretty quickly. There is sitting upstairs and they serve water as well! Which I thought was cute. We ordered the pistachio rose and the le framboise. Both were delicious, fresh, moist, great filling, perfect amount of nuttiness from the pistachio... I can go on and on lol WILL DEFINITELY VISIT AGAIN!!! 10/10/10/100000

    The chocolate croissants are life changing. The best chocolate I've had ever, second only to the chocolate croissants in Paris. I don't even have the verbs to describe it other than it was amazing and I'm going to keep thinking about it forever. The chocolate chip cookie was good, soft and right amount of salt, however the tahini flavor was a tad too much for me. The inside is so cute and so is the bakery packaging. Servers are really nice. TDLR; The chocolate croissant is 10000% worth waiting for

    Come for the croissants and check your cholesterol after! Wayyyy after. I would not be surprised if a whole stick of butter is used on each one of these giant, flakey behemoths. My personal favorites are the raspberry almond and the Nutella almond croissants. They also have a rose pistachio croissant that my friends really obsess over plus pistachio financiers for all you pistachio lovers. If you're looking for just classic French bread, they do have those available but limited quantities so you better go early in the morning. To avoid the long lines I highly suggest getting here before 9 AM. If the line seems short that means it IS short and you need to jump on it immediately or have regrets. They are now also open for wine bar nights Wednesday to Saturday, which I have been meaning to try. Sounds like a really cute date night idea. Ladies, drag your man here (or figure out how to subtlety push him to take you). Vive Les Croissants!

    I regret not ordering more croissants. My croissant was delicious!! It was soft and has the perfect balance of sweetness. I would definitely travel across the city to visit this place again. It's a small cafe but they have seating upstairs. Service was quick ! I'll definitely be back soon!!!

    Do things sell out in the morning? When would be the best times to go?

    I got there at 8:15 AM and they were already sold out of the croissant cereal. Sad.

    Will it be open on Monday, 1/16/23?

    Yes! Regular hours will be 8a-6p

I've been to both locations--the Times Square one is much smaller, but the Brooklyn location is amazing with a nice sit-down area. I always go back to my favorite, the tres leches cupcakes.

I had no problem finding parking. They had a few people ordering at the front, and a few people eating in the back. I perused the available cake (and pie) slices and other smaller baked goods, but did not see the Blackout Cake Slice! When I asked the staff, they regretfully informed me that they did not have slices that day, so I went with the next best option... an 8" cake! I didn't get any writing on the cake, as I already had a Happy Birthday candle, and I didn't want to add extra icing to the cake. I liked how well they package the cake. The box was large enough, and they line the bag with a thin piece of cardboard to stabilize the box. I'm not a big sweets person, but I enjoyed the chocolate-y richness of the cake. The cake itself was moist and the pudding held everything together well. I would be back to try their Strawberry Shortcake and other desserts.

    Radio Bakery... is perfection. I completely understand the line…read more I first ordered the heirloom tomato & feta sandwich, which was unbelievable. It is so clear that they use incredibly high-quality ingredients and carefully curate each component, which is exactly why everything comes together in such an elevated way. The tomatoes reminded me of the ones I grew in my garden during California summers as a teenager. Perfectly salted, layered over soft, not-too-tart feta. The focaccia was made with beautiful olive oil and, while a bit chewier than I usually prefer, gave the sandwich a satisfying bite. I had to close my eyes while eating it just to savor it. The chocolate cherry almond croissant... wow. Such a creative combination, and it did not disappoint. Soft, buttery, and filled with a sour cherry compote that reminded me of a cherry cordial from a box of chocolates. 5/5. Hainsley, who helped me, was exceptionally lovely. Everyone even in line was very nice, the vibes were awesome. I'll definitely be back to try the spicy tofu sandwich and the heirloom tomato tart!

While they didn't have their full selection available, there were still plenty of pastries to choose from. We ended up getting the vanilla kouign amann and the chocolate PB&J croissant. The kouign amann was flaky, buttery, and beautifully caramelized. The chocolate PB&J croissant was easily our favorite. It was filled with rich, decadent chocolate and a layer of jelly that balanced everything out without making it overly sweet. My significant other hasn't stopped talking about it since! We're already looking forward to coming back to try more.
