    Super cute bakery! The blueberry muffin was good, and the oatmeal cookie was excellent. The staff member who helped me was very friendly.

    Overall, I think this is a nice bakery. There is quite a bit of seating in the back as well as an outdoor patio. We ordered a few laminated pastries as well as two breakfast items. The quiche we ordered was incredibly tasty; the crust was perfect, and the egg mixture melted in your mouth. I was less enthused about the mushroom danish and strawberries and cream pastry. They were not as flaky as I would've liked and the flavors didn't wow me. I would definitely go back for their other menu items though!

    Sourdough Boule

    Such a charming bakery! I LOVE their sourdough! But a boule and take it home--it's the best!

    My fav artisan bakehouse in Park Slope, Brooklyn! It was my second visit and I could proudly guarantee that their pastries never let us down. It was quite busy at weekends but they provide plenty of indoor and outdoor tables, which is rare for a bakery! The backyard seats are comfy for gatherings or working, with a clean restroom. *Hot Cross Buns I came during Easter weekend and surprisingly found that they had hot cross buns! Best excuse to grab the once-in-a-year festive bread to celebrate Easter Sunday. Hot cross bun is a sweet yeasted bun marked with a cross on top in memory of crucifixion. The ones by Simple Loaf were studded with tangy raisins, citrus peels, yet the mixed spice was rather mild. It was denser than I thought, but we really enjoyed the complexity of flavors. Better eat it fresh as the bread texture becomes harder over time! *Kouign Amann This kouign amann was HUGE. Probably the largest one I have ever seen so far lol. The exterior was fully caramelized with crystal sugar. A bit on the sweeter and crispier side for my liking. Yet the interior was puffy and drenched in buttery fragrance! My Recommendations: Hot Cross Bun, Pasteis de Nata Worth Returning ? YES DEFINITELY

    Tuna melt

    Ordered a croissant, half tuna melt and cappuccino to go. Coffee is decent and sandwich was good. They offer half sandwiches for $9 and it comes with a small side salad which isn't bad for the price. They also have a wide selection of pastries to choose from from croissants to danishes and more. There is outdoor seating on the street as well as a cute backyard area in the back. Try to go early since many of the pastries sell out before the afternoon.

    Challah French Toast

    I enjoyed coming here for their wonderful pastries. They also have a little sit down in the back. Their pastries are the bomb and so are their breakfast. I went with my husband, brother-in-law, and brother-in-law's boyfriend. My husband either got the turkey or the BLT, I can't remember. I got the 1/2 avocado sandwich with a side salad. The boyfriend got the french toast, and I can't remember what my brother-in-law got. I don't remember him getting anything. The avocado sandwich was amazing. You feel super full and healthy after eating it. I also tried some of the challah french toast - it was almost like a pudding consistency, it was that soft, but still really good. I recommend you come here to get pastries and maybe sit in the back or back patio and enjoy it in the sun. The line gets long here so get there early!

    My gf who lives in Brooklyn swears by this bakery. Pastry selection is varied and the danishes are larger than my head! Very cozy bake shop that has extended and outdoor seating towards the back. Staff are very cordial and warm. Space is clean and brightly lit. Alot of local patrons. I got a breakfast sandwich (slightly greasy sourdough) but the fixings are amazing!!! They don't skimp on the avocado, are light on the bacon (how I like it), and they have halved boiled eggs which are warm and soft. If you dine in, slather on the hotsauce and ketchup! They have condiments in a large tray, self-serve iced water, napkins, etc. I also got a blueberry danish. Danishes are usually not my thing but it was just so tempting! The bread is flaky like a croissant, very fresh! And the blueberry preserve is only slightly sweet so the berries themselves are at the forefront, flavorwise. Very easily shared with another person. I was really tempted by alot of the pastries - pasteis de nata (a staff favorite, filled with a vanilla custard that isn't too egg-y or sweet), the kouign aman, the CHOCOLATE BABKA!, and the poached egg and sliced pork belly pastry cup. I missed out on getting that pulled pork sandwich too!!!! I will have to come back again since I'm staying in the area. Prices for the pastries are very reasonable. Sandwich prices are slightly on the higher end. I also did not take advantage of their seasonal drinks but I definitely need to try the London Fog and Spiced Pumpkin Latte (so happy they have this off-season....would I still be considered basic?? Lol).

    TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups…read morewere the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection I was at this unique Guatemalan (ish) restaurant a while back with one of my groups. I said "ish" because the menu has dishes from all over, ranging from sandwiches to BBQ ribs to Guatemalan and Mexican soups. It's out there, and even though not everything works that well, it's fun, and if you can't find something you want to order here, you probably shouldn't go out to restaurants. There was also live jazz music that night, which was loud but nice to listen to. Since it was happy hour, a bunch of us got drinks. I went with a maracuya margarita, which was decent; someone else had a jalapeño margarita, someone had a beer, and someone had a mojito. There were a few nice hot sauces on the table, with the red one reminding me of salsa macha as it had a smoky kick and a spicier green sauce reminiscent of ají verde. They gave us some complimentary blue corn chips and a very mild black bean dip, which was tasty enough and hard to complain about, as it was free. From the appetizers, we got the Hot Figs for $15.95, consisting of honey goat cheese, corn tortilla chips, and plum + pumpkin seeds. This was a unique and fun blend and reminded me more of something you would find in a wine bar. The mix of sweet and salty, with a bit of crunch from the seeds, was nice. This was good, and I would recommend it for a table rather than for a solo diner. There was also The Zingy Salad for $21.95, featuring zucchini spirals, yuzu, tomato, onion, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, and a jalapeño infusion. $18.95. The salad was fine with a bit of crunch and a mild spiciness. It was fine, though a bit wet, for lack of a better word. The best dishes of the night were the soups, which each had its own distinct flavor profile. My sight presence went to the Pepián for $21.95, consisting of chicken, pumpkin/sesame seeds, green tomatillo, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, carrots, chili coban/pasta/guaque, and potato + rice. There was plenty of tender chicken inside, with the soup having a nice roasted flavor with some spice and a bit of sourness. The potatoes and rice on the bottom added more sustenance to this dish. Almost equally delicious was the Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo for a dollar more with shredded chicken, tomato, black pepper, garlic, onions, peas, chickpeas, corn, achiote, chipotle, Monterey jack cheese, and crunchy blue corn tortilla chips. By comparison, this was a bit heartier, with the melted cheese and shredded tortilla chips inside, similar to soups found in Mexican cuisine. While I also liked the mix of veggies a bit more in this one, as it added a bit more texture, I still slightly preferred the flavor of the other soup, as I usually prefer a bit more spice. The rest of the food was fine. The TPC sandwich for $19.95 with chicken, peanut butter, coconut cream, ginger, cilantro, pickled carrots, and lime was fine. For the number of ingredients, I found it a bit sweet, likely from the cream and the peanut butter mix. The bread was nice, but it also fell apart. It came with a nice side salad with a good vinaigrette. The most expensive at $24.95 were the Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs, consisting of baby back ribs with rice and beans. The ribs were almost a bit too tender as they lacked any bite, which was nice, but the sauce was a bit too generic tasting, reminding me of Sweet Baby Ray's or something similar. The rice and beans were standard. This was also OK. Next came some dessert. There was first the $12.95 Rosemary Churros served with dulce de leche & chocolate dips. While I'm not sure if it worked, the rosemary did add a unique smell and a bit of flavor, and at least it wasn't generic. The churros themselves were hot, and the sauces were standard, with my preference being the dulce de leche. I also ordered a Champurrado for $7.95, which was fine. It wasn't as thick as I expected, though perhaps the style is a bit different than the champurrados I rarely buy from Mexican street carts. The chocolate flavor was very nice, though, and I like that it wasn't too sweet. Another person got a $4 Alfajor, which I got a bite of, which was standard. This place is a bit hard to rate. The two soups were wonderful, I liked the appetizers, and I found a couple of the other dishes just OK. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'm not craving to go back. This would be the perfect 3.5, but I'll round up as that doesn't exist.

Every table has a placemat with crayons which is such a fun way to keep kids and adults entertained. The food was delicious and tasted fresh, living up to their messaging on sourcing local food. We ordered the egg katsu sandwich and the eggs rothko. The sandwich was very well made with a nice crisp panko crusting that didnt feel heavy on the oil, and yet still managed to have a light airy egg inside. The eggs rothko was buttery and flavorful but still managed to not feel too heavy. The broiled tomatos on the side were a nice touch to contrast the egg and toast from the main dish. Overall I enjoyed this place and would love to come back to try more dishes. The vibe was friendly and welcoming, making it the perfect weekend brunch spot.

If I were to do again, no sausage, I don't believe you need it for this sandwich. The chocolate milk is regular. - 4/5 Value (1-5): For what I got, I believe it is overpriced, even though it tasted really good, I don't know how many eggs are used to create the egg katsu, but $17 seems like a reach. There are other items on the menu that cost the same price but will make you feel more full. 3/5 Customer Service (1-5): The customer service was attentive and nice. 5/5
