    Cakes
    Paige S.

    Cakes were delicious, but we came for chocolate chip cookies and even waited for them to be made, and they were never baked. The worker kept telling everyone who came by that they would be ready in 20-30 mins, so we actually waited inside about half an hour and didn't get any. The cakes themselves were tasty, but very decadent, so they needed to be savored and eaten in small bites. There's a small area with barstools to eat inside!

    Petit Chou 229 1st. Ave. New York, NY 10003 Breakfast Croissandwich This sandwich is layered with scrambled eggs, applewood smoked bacon, and american cheese on laminated homemade croissant dough. Also included is chipotle aioli dipping sauce. Pieces of the croissant did fall off, but it was still unbelievably tasty. #eastvillage #eastvillagenyc #petitchou #breakfastcroissandwich

    Stopped by right before closing and with a limited selection, walked out with a raspberry cheesecake and guava, danishes. Both were excellent. Space is relatively small so most people just grab something to go. At almost $10 each these are indulgent treats however in line with a lot of higher end pastries in the City.

    I've been to Petit Chou a couple of times now. The chocolate and caramel cake is one of the best cakes I've ever had. I couldn't recommend it more. The chocolate chip cookie is also one of my favorites in the city. I can't wait to try more from this bakery!

    Probably one of the most affordable bakeries so far I've been in NY! Staff were incredible nice and toke the time to answer my question/went over the differ pastries they had/specials! I'm usually not big on eclair but The pistachio looked delicious and didn't disappoint! The cinnamon roll was huge with a generous frosting( a bit too much for me) were soft/fluffy but overly sweet with the frosting so I removed a good amount for my liking The chocolate croissant wasn't as flaky more in the bready side but my the chocolate overload filling was delicious but a bit too much! The almond croissant was my fav -flaky chewy at the same time buttery but not overly (the way I like it) with generous almond paste topping ! Worth a stop while in NY for your tasting !

    I kept seeing Petit Chou all over Instagram so I absolutely had to try it and I'm so glad I did! I went early-ish on a Monday morning and was the only customer there which was nice. I ordered the bacon egg and cheese croissant sandwich (which they warm up for you), and the famous chocolate chip cookie. Both items were super good. The breakfast sandwich was honestly like anything I've had before. Loved the texture and just really tasty. The cookie was legit and I loved that it was thick! I ate it like 6 hours after I bought it and it was still super soft and the chocolate was still melty inside.

    Love this spot. Tried the breakfast sandwich for the first time today. They heated it up for me and gave me a sauce on the side that appeared to be some sort of spicy aioli. Bread was super flakey on top. Overall a nice combo heated up with the sauce. This is my neighborhood preferred bakery - can't recommend it enough. Will be back.

    Loved the Passionfruit Cheesecake puff and the mango. Both weren't too sweet and light/ airy. The Passionfruit filling/ jam was amazing! Sweet cashier and I was greeted as soon as I walked in. It's not a big place more like a grab and go situation but the pastries surpassed my expectations. I can't wait to go back!

    WHEN: Sat @7:30pm As we walked and explored more of the area after dinner, we recognized this being one of the spots on our list for cookies. But since it was already late in the day and they had none, we decided to go with: BANANA CAKE - $12 This banana bread with toffee shell was pretty good! It was pretty sweet so we were not able to finish it all. There's not much seating but a few standing counters to have your sweet treats. Also, I appreciate there being a share of what these desserts look like on the inside

    tiramisu cream puff
    Suchi O.

    Stopped by for a quick sweet bite after a late lunch one weekend. It's a small pastry shop with a few stools and two high counters where you can enjoy your treat. Loved the way the desserts were displayed--everything looked beautiful and tempting. I tried the tiramisu cream puff. It was really good overall--I liked the texture, the flavor, and the presentation. The only thing that didn't quite work for me was the center filling they called "coffee jam." To me, it tasted more like an overly sweet caramel and didn't match the coffee-forward flavor I was expecting. If the chef or anyone from the team is reading--just a small suggestion from a coffee and tiramisu lover: if the center had a deeper coffee flavor and a bit of that pleasant bitter edge, it would take this dessert to the next level. At $8, it felt well priced for the quality. We'll definitely be back to try more of their creations!

    I came here on a Saturday for the cinnamon roll which I can confirm was amazing. There wasn't no line and the staff was really nice. The place has a few bar seats so you can sit there and eat, it's really warm and bright so not a bad idea if you have time. I haven't tried anything else but based on my one visit I would highly recommend.

    Cinnamon bun
    Jillian B.

    Been craving a cinnamon bun for months, and FINALLY got my hands on one now that I'm done with my wedding diet. My husband and I swung by at about 11:30am on a Sunday and were pleased to see cinnamon rolls still well in stock. We ordered one along with a pistachio eclair, and munched the pistachio eclair while they heated up the cinnamon bun. Pistachio eclair had amazing flavor and texture. The pistachio cream was delicious and the candied pistachios on top added a great layer of crunch and flavor. Cinnamon bun.. omg.. it was so good. Gooey and perfectly chewy. Sweet, but not excessively. Understand why it's on so many "best cinnamon rolls in nyc" list. Would 10000000% get again!!!

    Are you passionate about pistachios? I am and at Petit Chou there is a pistachio éclair ($8) that is simply divine. Studded with a profusion of the tasty nuts, this pastry also has pistachio cream inside making each bite heavenly. I ate this last Friday. It's best to wait a few minutes to let it soften a bit before starting to eat. When I truly enjoy something I tend to eat slowly savoring each bite even though I know I may have it again.

Unfortunately, my most recent visit left me feeling deeply uncomfortable and unwelcome. While preparing my order, an employee stopped me and asked, "Question for you... why are you wearing box braids? You're not Black, and I thought it was only a Black people thing." This comment was completely inappropriate, unsolicited, and had no place in a customer interaction. As a Filipino woman, I found this remark not only disrespectful but also culturally insensitive. Braiding has existed across many cultures, including Filipino culture, for generations. Regardless, it is never appropriate for an employee to question a customer's appearance or make assumptions about their ethnicity or cultural identity. I came in simply to enjoy my morning coffee, not to be interrogated or judged based on how I look. No customer should be made to feel uncomfortable, singled out, or stereotyped while patronizing a business. I hope management takes this matter seriously and provides additional training to ensure all customers are treated with professionalism, respect, and without prejudice. I genuinely enjoyed supporting this business, which makes this experience all the more disappointing

I had to run to work after an appointment so I ordered for takeout. The person taking my order was friendly. I opted for the Lumberjack and a black cold brew. I received the drink very quickly, with a short wait for the sandwich. While waiting, one member of the staff stocking up supplies on the side started chatting with me and then she offered to check up on my sandwich. She came out with it shortly thereafter. She was very friendly and helpful. The sandwich held up well during my 15-minute commute to the office. It is a really indulgent sandwich, with each bite revealing the sweetness and butteriness of the maple crueller, the saltiness of the thick cut bacon, and the savoriness of the cheese and the eggs as the yolks popped. I sipped the cold brew in between bites to cut the richness. It was a very satisfying meal. The Lumberjack is not something I would recommend you eat every day, but it's good as an occasional treat. In the past I've ordered lunch from Daily Provisions via delivery (the "Chefy" salad and the chicken milanese with arugula salad are my favorites), but I might start adding other breakfast sandwiches to the mix.

I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!
