Delicious baked goods, a bit of a line on a Friday morning but so worth it! My sweet and savory options to go were perfect.

I traveled over an hour on a day when the G train was partly suspended, having to take a special bus, overshot the route because it doesn't stop at the normal stops, had to ride back the other way, only to find that when I get here the smoked salmon focaccia had run out by 9:40am. The lady ahead of me got the last one. Lame. Way too early to run out. They ought to make more of it so that customers aren't left bitter and disappointed like I am now. What a waste of time. Only reason for the second star is that the other pastries are all right, but not as good as the smoked salmon focaccia, which is their best item. read more

I recognize I am absolutely singing my praises into the void but I have to immortalize my love for the pumpkin cheesecake croissant. I waited in line twice (because the first time it hadn't come out yet) for a total of 45 minutes and it was worth every minute in line and more. Definitely the best pastry I've had in 2024. read more

I ordered the sesame scallion twist, earl grey morning bun, and a pistachio croissant. All were excellent, although pricey. The earl grey morning bun was my favorite and I've never had anything like it before. If you are able to, come by on a weekday to avoid long lines! read more

I found out about Radio Bakery from the NYT Top 20 Bakeries in 2024 list (in the whole nation). It was the only one located in Brooklyn. It was so close to home that I knew I had to bookmark and visit. I went on a very cold Saturday morning and fortunately, there was no line outside. I suspect there usually is because they already had the rope separators setup. I first saw an assortment of focaccias. I got the sandwich style Smoked Salmon with everything seasoning, dill, pickled onions and cream cheese. It was delicious! I actually prefer this than bagels. I also got the Earl Gray Morning Bun. The tea taste was pronounced and the sugar coated exterior elevated the texture - fluffy and crunchy altogether. They also had a sizable assortment of croissants. I got the Maple Sausage which I greatly appreciate the chunk of sausage at the center. It had a maple glaze all over that gave it an even crispier texture. It was topped with dehydrated sage. Lastly, I got the Cheesy Pretzel which surprisingly was my favorite. I'm not a fan of snack bag pretzels nor baked ones. But theirs is crispy like a croissant. I'm not sure of the cheese they used - it didn't have a strong cheesy smell but you can certainly taste mild cheese. There were mustard seeds but no strong mustard flavor. I think it's a nice touch because mustard is a known element of pretzels so it shows their thoughtfulness when creating it. Everything including a coffee ($3.50) was $41. That's a fair price for four hearty pastries and coffee that were essentially my breakfast and lunch. read more

I'm not sure how I feel about this place. First off, I did not enjoy any of the croissants I got( classic and pistachio). The sandwiches are okay, I got the cauliflower one and the pesto one. Maybe I'll try again someday. Perhaps if I lived closer I would enjoy it more? Not sure but I would not plan to go all the way here. read more

The thirty plus minute wait is well worth the wait. The aromas of freshly baked pastries are intoxicating. The staff is very friendly, and patrons are happy to order the delicious food. We had the burrata and ham focaccia sandwich, twice baked pistachio croissant, and chocolate croissant. The pistachio croissant was amazing. Definitely come here. read more

By some stroke of luck I showed up on a Saturday and there was hardly a line (as in, it was not out the door!) things moved very quickly and the staff was very nice/helpful. Everything looked yum, but I settled on the chocolate peanut croissant, which had really nice flavors but lacked the flakey layers you hope to see. I also got the everything focaccia to take home for lunch, which had a really nice texture to it. 4 stars because there's no indoor seating (key in colder months) and the prices are steep. Come, for sure, but it's definitely a treat** vs everyday spot imo! read more

The cookie is criminally good (maybe my new fav in nyc) and the sesame scallion bun thing is skippable. I had a bite of my friends focaccia which was prob the best - i wish they had veggie focaccia options left, we came around 9:45 on a saturday and they were out (i think they restock throughout the day) - def delish but in tune w other reviews id go if u can get there early read more

Went at 8:30 MLK Monday and didn't wait but when I was leaving the line wrapped outside in the cold! Well worth it though. The food was outstanding. I ordered many things and $75 later my little family of four gave a resounding 5 stars. Here it is in order of our favorites 1. Salmon on Everything Focaccia 2. Maple sage croissant 3. Earl gray morning muffin 4. Triple chocolate croissant 5. Plain croissant We haven't tried the whole wheat sourdough bread loaf yet but I'm equally sure it will be great. Definitely coming back read more

The sandwiches are absolutely delicious! Totally worth the wait, but make sure to go early before some of the popular selections sell out! We waited about 30 mins around 11:30am and were lucky to grab the last of a few options. read more

I like Radio Bakery but find it to be inconsistent at times. Their chocolate chip cookies are some of my favorites, but sometimes they are flatter than other times. Their triple chocolate croissant is fantastic. However, their seasonal tarts sometimes lack seasoning and taste a bit one dimensional as a result. I still go back for the cookies and croissant. read more

Visited them 3x in the last month because they're THAT good. Excited for Greenpoint to have a good bakery in the area - one that isn't a coffee shop with croissants and muffins on the side but a place that specializes in bread and pastries. They sell out quickly and there is usually a line that goes out the door, but it moves quick and the workers are all very nice. My favorites are the earl grey morning bun, maple sausage croissant, everything spice focaccia with scallion cream cheese, roast beef raddichio on sea salt focaccia, and vanilla custard croissant tart (seasonal only). Their pastries are flaky and crispy with great lamination, good balance of salt and flavors! read more

Best focaccia I've ever had! I tried the tomato, shakshuka, and the sausage. All of them were delicious, but my favorite flavor would probably be the tomato. We got the sausage one as it was coming out and it was warm, fluffy, and wonderful. I've never had focaccia as delightful as here--they make it much more airy and light than any focaccia I've ever had. I also tried their burrata and prosciutto sandwich, and their roast beef sandwich. They use their focaccia bread for the sandwich and it's incredible--the burrata is a super creamy spread and the prosciutto adds the perfect amount of salty meaty flavor. I enjoyed the roast beef as well, though I'm not usually a huge fan of radicchio, it's just too bitter for me personally. In this sandwich I actually appreciated the vinegary bitterness coming from the radicchio. It's a feat that they actually made me like something I normally hate! For pastries, we had the croissant, the sesame scallion twist, the brown butter cornbread, and the cinnamon bun. Out of these I would say my favorite was the scallion twist, which is sort of like a crispy croissant-y version of Chinese scallion pancakes. The line gets quite long on the weekends so be prepared to wait for ~20 minutes. I came in during the week around 11 however and there was no line. read more

Overall rating: 4.8 Admittedly I was ready to give this a low rating. It was soo crowded! I went early and still waited about 20-30 minutes. I did like that there was a rope to keep me in line. I really wanted to get the smoked salmon foccacio after seeing it on TikTok. But even after arriving around 12, they told me it was sold out. They told me lines form around an hour before it opens to get that bread! Damn. I ended up getting the Roast Beef Rodicchio ($16) & a pistachio croissant ($5!). My total was $20+. So wild. But, I was ready to pay given the line and that it's in Williamsburg. The croissant was soo good omg. The sandwich was also good! A bit messy. I wish it was slightly, slightly larger but that's Williamsburg for you. Oh but it was soo good! I want to try the salmon foccachio but I live about an hour away & don't see myself waking up at 6:30am! To get a sandwich. read more

deliciouusss bakery - is it worth getting up super early to actually try the focaccia? unsure. but everything i had was really yummy! the food: things to def get: croissants!! i loved the triple chocolate and pistachio. i tried both the ham sandwich and the roast beef on focaccia, i will say the simple taste of the ham was really good but i prefer the focaccia due to the variety of ingredients and veggies inside. the space: really small bar seating, a few outdoor tables available. read more

My new favorite bakery. Don't let the line out the door scare you- it moves quickly and it's worth the wait. The dutch sticky bun is unbelievable- one of the best pastries I've had in awhile. The chocolate peanut butter croissant was excellent and not too sweet, and the sesame scallion bun tasted like an elevated everything bagel with scallion cream cheese. read more

On a Sunday afternoon, there was a long line outside of Radio Bakery. We had to wait maybe 15 minutes total. Once we got inside, there were a few sandwiches and pastry options. I was slightly disappointed in the pastry selection but I believe a lot were either sold out or not being sold that day. The inside of the bakery was pretty small and absolutely packed, but there were some tables outside. Overall, all of the pastries were delicious. My personal favorite was the cream tart. That said, everything was super expensive and I'm not sure was necessarily worth the cost/wait. I'd definitely recommend checking it out though if you enjoy pastries and bread though! read more

Radio Bakery - iced mocha, assortment of pastries - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

we arrived around 10:30 and the line was pretty long so come early!! because they also tend to sell out on the good stuff. the line moved relatively quick but it was still a little over half hr. i think only because today was so cold that the line was decently "short" but in the spring i can see the line going down the block. the staff also tries to move the line fairly quickly so definitely decide on what you want before you get to the staff to order! for sandwiches, we went for burrata and prosciutto, and the turkey basil and pesto sandwich. both are 10/10 however very salty and the pesto is drippppingggg in oil. for personal preference it can definitely be less oily LOL but none the less very good. i think on a good day, i can inhale both sandwiches. for pastries, we got the earl grey morning bun, cheesy croissant, and pistachio croissant. earl grey is a must get. the other 2 i can do without the next time. the hype is definitely very valid and i will be back!!!! read more

Visited this awesome bakery week of Thanksgiving. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The choices of fresh baked breads and desserts were great. I tried the chocolate chip cookie, Brien butter cake and pistachio croissant They all were delicious and so fresh. Loved the sea salt topping the cookie. The brown butter cake was heavenly and moist. And jeez the croissant was one of the best things I have ever tasted. Can't wait to return on my next visit! read more

Popped into Radio bakery twice now and enjoyed everything I got each time! The first go around, the line was insane, by the time I got to the front, they were no longer selling pastries but instead some sandwiches. This was around 11-12pm. Their focaccia was delicious, not too thick, soft and chewy. The brown butter corn cake was the only pastry left so I had to snag one, it was tasty enough to make me come back earlier in the morning to try their pastries! The second visit, I got their earl grey morning bun and brown butter apple croissant. The apple croissant was amazing and I finished it in one go! The early grey morning bun had good flavoring but the bun itself didn't have enough dough so really the outer layer was hard and super flaky, worth a try but wouldn't order again. Line moves quick and it's hard to figure out what you want so peek ahead! read more

We got there at about 8 am and the line took less than 10 minutes! I got an everything focaccia with the scallion cream cheese and lox- it was SO good! I also got an earl grey morning bun and a pistachio croissant. The morning bun had a good texture but the flavor wasn't for me. The pistachio croissant also had a great flaky texture but the flavor was more "orangey" than pistachio- the filling isn't a pistachio cream as I was hoping (It's a pistachio "jam" almost). My cousin got the bacon egg and cheese focaccia and claimed that it "healed something in her not just physically but spiritually." I didn't get any pictures but everything was so pretty and I loved the quaint interior of the cafe. Overall it's a great place to stop by!! read more

there was a small line when my friend and i arrived but it moves rather quickly! the staff here are so sweet and keep things moving. my friend and i got the vegan cauliflower sandwich to share. i think it needed salt and some acidity but it was overall fine. i also tried the chocolate croissant. it's very rich which is expected, but next time i'd like to try their other ones to give their croissants a fair chance. i would come back to try more items for sure. one note- there is only bar seating inside, but if it's a nice day they have some tables outside :) read more

I understand the hype! Arrived around 12:30 on a Saturday and it seems that most of the items are still available. The line moves fast. All the pastries and sandwiches looked amazing and it seems you can't go wrong with any choice. The focaccia on the sandwiches were very fluffy and soft. The morning bun is buttery and the earl grey sugar offers a pleasant delicate floral addition that pairs perfectly with coffee. Pistachio croissant was decadent but not too sweet. I really enjoyed the burrata prosciutto sandwich and the morning bun most! They offer some outdoor tables and chairs and just a small little bar seating inside. read more

We were lucky enough to come at a time (9:30am) that was not too busy and the line keeps moving. The employees there are sweet and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our Everything Bagel Focaccia. However, skip the blueberry lime croissant- sounded awesome but really missed the mark in flavor and texture. The cinnamon roll is fine but very very sweet. Overall would deff come back for the focaccia. read more

Try one of everything! Loved - def order again: rhubarb custard, seasonal blueberry-cheesecake-lemon zest-croissant, smoked salmon sandwich, iced latte. Outdoor tables/chairs. Delicious - split: earl gray morning bun, brown butter corn bread, chocolate chip cookie Friends finished off the: tomato focaccia (sold out later on) Next time: trying different veggie sandwiches (asparagus, tofu), sesame bun, mushroom/fig croissant, and anything seasonal. So many options! Ice latte: solid. Quality ingredients. Line moves at a good pace. Def a place you go a few times. read more

Really amazing, although no surprise given how much we love Rolo's. The prosciutto/burrata sandwich on focaccia was incredible (albeit smaller than comparables around the city, I'd guess), and the pastries we got (chocolate chip cookie, spicy salami croissant, chocolate croissant) were all perfect. Definitely want to try the pistachio croissant and a stirato bread sandwich next time too. read more

I heard a lot of great things about this place so I decide to try it. I went on a rainy day which was awesome because there were no lines! Since I went early they had a lot of pastries and sandwiches still available. I got the twice baked pistachio croissant and the roast beef & radicchio sandwich. The croissant was okay but the star of the show was the focaccia bread on the sandwich. It was so soft and so delicious! My sister had the caprese sandwich and she loved it! The prices are a bit steep but if you want treat yourself to a nice breakfast or lunch, this is a good place to go. You need to get there early as it sells out fast. If you go 2pm there will be only a few things left! read more

The baked goods were absolutely sublime. The best things on the menu were the Tuna sandwich and brown butter corn bread. Not an ordinary sandwich at all, peppeorcini, lemon zest, and the soft bread encrusted with sesame seeds is something to think about before I go to bed. The brown butter corn cake is a dense piece of heaven filled with overwhelming flavors yet so subtle. I tried a bunch of other items such as their roast beef sandwich on a focaccia, burrata and prosciutto on a focaccia, ham and rosemary sandwich, earl grey morning bun, and rhubarb danish (absolutely crazy). Everything was so distinct and their flavors were absolutely fire, but that tuna sandwich and brown butter corn cake still outshines the rest. The line was quick and the servers were polite but it was a lunch rush so it does get overwhelming rather quickly. The open kitchen is a nice feel since you're able to see the bakers in the back rolling dough and baking a bunch of goodies. Overall, the best thing to do is try every thing they have available which I'm pretty sure are all good so you can pick your favorite item. Price is at a premium for baked goods and sandwiches, however, for the quality, you can't ask for more. Everything was baked and seasoned to perfection while being so innovative. To put things into perspective, I tasted black pepper on the earl grey morning bun, and it works. Never in my life had a pastry that different but works so well. Definitely a must try when it comes to bakeries in NYC. read more

I've been here multiple times and everything is so good! From the pastries to the sandwiches to the breads, everything is delicious. You might have to wait in line, but it moves relatively quickly and everyone who works in the bakery is quite nice. There are a few tables to sit at outside, as well as a small counter inside the bakery, though sometimes it gets too crowded to stand at. Highly recommended! read more

Radio Bakery - Sandwiches - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Arrived at 8:30am on a Saturday (they open at 7:30). The line wasn't too long. When we got to the front, they were sold out of almost all their pastries, including everything I was originally interested in. I ended up getting a morning bun, which was good. My only gripe is that if they're nearly sold out an hour after opening, I'd love to see increased production (especially since the opening time is so early). Might revisit in the future to try again! read more

Finally made the trip to Radio Bakery and needed a bite of everything. This place has the oddest of hours so it's hard to find time to come. They have a smaller space with outdoor seating and a few high chairs by the window. Really nice staff :) Out of everything, you CANNOT skip out on their focaccia. Menu changes daily but I got the sausage chive one. They keep this gem by the window and not in the pastry case so it's easy to miss! All in all, the selection was nice and diverse but it didn't feel terribly special tbh. The scallion twist is good but flavors feel easy to find in a scallion pancake. I didn't really enjoy the cauliflower sandwich although it had lots of herbs! Orange vanilla pastry was citrusy and high quality but standard. Would certainly come back for like 4 more focaccias! read more

We had an earl grey morning bun and a double baked pistachio croissant. The bun had a very light hint of early grey but reminded me more of a churro. The pistachio croissant was bomb. So crisp and that pistachio filling was great. Be ready for long lines on weekends. Many people were going for the sandwiches too which looked nice. Staff was cheerful and gladly answered questions. read more

Too, Too, Too expensive. This bakery moved into our very reasonably priced neighborhood, then began to attract the social media trendies, who would pay any price to be seen there. Affordability, is everyone's concern. They are not affordable at this store, especially for the generations of people who have lived here in Greenpoint. read more

We ventured over to Greenpoint this morning to check out Radio Bakery! We got there around 9:15 and we waited about 15 minutes in line. The pastry selection was amazing and everything was incredible. They keep baking until they sell out and everything is so fresh. Our favorites were the French onion croissant, the pretzel bear claw, and the smoked salmon focaccia sandwich. Everything was insane. Definitely will be making the journey back to get more pastries in the future and to try their lunch sandwiches. read more
