    Breakfast sandwich
    Lotsa B.

    Mid food, mid ambiance, service was there. Prices are ridiculously expensive for average products. Didn't get the delicious coffee or bread that others experienced. Not sure if I came on an off day but wasn't impressed enough to come back.

    My cousin visited us and brought some bread and pizza from the 9th Ave location. They were raving about it and wanted us to try. Good bread and surprisingly good pizza. The onion pizza was good and had a little spicy kick to it.

    Walking around Chelsea and stopped in here around 11am. I have been walking all morning, including walking all over The Little Island several times. My feet were tired! I'm walking all afternoon and need to fuel up. Saw this place. Total happenstance. Read a few reviews (thanks Yelpsters!) before walking in. I asked the person at the counter what she recommended. She suggested the egg and avocado sandwich. I was more in the mood for something sweet. She said hands-down, chocolate bomboloni. I also got a latte. Both were so amazing. Sat outside, enjoyed my coffee and my dessert. Thought of getting another bomboloni but decided there are more food explorations for me today. Highly recommend!

    Delicious fresh baked goods and nice cold brew coffee. You can sit inside or outside. INSIDE:Per NYC LAW, you will need to show PROOF OF COVID VACCINATION . I'm very HAPPY ABOUT THAT!! The staff was pleasant. The pastry and beverage was enjoyable. The bathroom was clean. A very nice neighborhood place. It was a nice, sunny day, so I sat outside. Pleasant. I enjoyed my chocolate Bombolini and cold brew coffee, as I killed some time before a nearby appointment. The one thing that took off a star was the disregard for proper pricing. Prices are shown at each beautiful looking baked good. Great! Easy to see. But, when you knowingly put a price by an item, and you know that it is not the correct price, that is not good business. When I was sitting outside, enjoying my beverage and yummy, fresh chocolate Bombolini and preparing to post photos for a "check-in" here on Yelp I noticed that my receipt showed $4.50 for my delightfully delicious Bombolini BUT, I had a photo to post that showed $4.25 for my Bombolini . Hmm, maybe it was the tax? No, tax shows and is added separately on my receipt. Since I was comfortable outside, I did not feel like going back in to ask, so I called, identified myself etc., (cold brew and chocolate Bombolini) explained that I'm posting some photos on Yelp, and I just noticed Blah, blah, etc., and asked. The young lady on the phone said they had to wait for newly printed price signs. (Choose your emoji sign to place here, jeepers!! ) So, I wonder, did the owner make this rule, did a manager, did anyone?? I was surprised and kind of saddened by this answer. Saddened because, this place is SO VERY PLEASANT WITH YUMMY GOOD FOOD AND DRINK, and this response let me know that COMMON SENSE IS LACKING FROM THE OWNER, OR TRAINER OF THE STAFF. If you do not have signage with the correct price then why not do one of these : option 1- remove the cute little sign from that group of chocolate Bombolini ....and if a customer asks, you can tell them the correct price.....OR, option 2- write the correct price on that little sign. Worried about ink? Then cover with a piece of tape, over the handwritten price. We are in a Covid 19 PANDEMIC. I understand if you need to raise prices. I am glad that your business is open. I am glad that you are asking for proof of vaccination per NYC LAW. All I am saying is let the consumer know the correct price. Again, I am glad and grateful that your business is surviving. And I want that to continue. I brought my tray inside, tossed whatever paper into garbage. Used the clean restroom, and said goodbye to the young man and woman behind the counter: "Goodbye, have a good day!" The guy responded the same-nice , but the young lady kept her back to me, she was perhaps doing something, but she said nothing. A far different attitude compared to her friendly smile and greeting when I had entered. Was she annoyed at my pricing question? I don't know. If the owner happens to read this, can you comment on the pricing signage, please? I DID ENJOY MY ICE COFFEE COLD BREW AND THE FRESH, YUMMY CHOCOLATE BOMBOLINI . And being able to sit outside. To the CONSUMER--I certainly do recommend this place. Just confirm price if you care to.

    Croissant and Iced Coffee
    Ryan H.

    Try: Croissant, Kimchi Turkey Avocado Sandwich, with an Iced Coffee Why: The Croissant has a sugar glaze on top which added some sweetness and texture in each bite. I also enjoyed dipping my croissant into the coffee! The Kimchi Turkey Avocado Sandwich was very unique and delicious. I didn't see it on display when I came back so I think it might be a special they made occasionally, but worth a try if you like kimchi. Notes. Cute bakery with various pastries to try. Workers are friendly and helpful. Very clean with seating indoors and outdoors.

    Pomodoro Slice
    Dipali G.

    This spot is a really nice coffee shop for indoor and outdoor seating! Come here for some good baked treats and interesting conversations with some people form the neighborhood. Food: I tried the croissant and it was very good! Really buttery, a little too buttery for my taste but still very good! They don't heat anything Up. My friend got the pizza slices - the pomodoro and the cauliflower and she said that it was amazing! She ended up ordering 4 slices! Ambience: really nice cafe with ample seating and friendly workers. This definitely feels like a neighborhood spot, so expect some of the locals to speak with you!

    Raspberry Jam Bomboloni
    Madeleine B.

    Sullivan St Bakery is right near me so I thought I'd try it out. I tried: Raspberry bomboloni: this was my favorite of the sweet stuff. Really soft and moist donut, and delicious raspberry filling. Cream bomboloni: not really my taste, but still good Chocolate chip cookie: decent, nothing special. It tasted like it had peanut butter too? My favorite things were the pizzas. I tried the zucchini one and the artichoke one. Those are great. Although "pizza" isn't quite the word I'd use, since they're more like focaccia or flatbread. Very tasty though. The pizzas are what elevated my review from 3 to 4 stars.

    a counter with a variety of baked goods
    Dan C.

    I've been here a couple of times and they are just a very solid bakery. Breads are the main event but cookies and pastries are also very solid. The focaccia here is fantastic. I am also a fan of the chocolate chip cookies. They are rich and dense and completely cooked, while still being moist and chewy (if you are looking for a break from all the mushy, raw-inside cookie madness). They also have good croissants, too. The store is pretty small, but there is very little in the way of quality baked goods in the immediate area, so just grab and go and enjoy at home (or inhaling as you walk).

    I loved the vibe they've got going on here. It's an Italian-style cafe and menu, with a quiet, relaxed, rustic setting. They have pastries, soups, sandwiches, breakfast items, and all the caffeine beverages your heart could want. I got a coffee with almond milk, and later an almond milk latte. Was pretty great coffee, and not the smoothest latte I've ever had, but up there in terms of quality. It very much reminded me of Italian joe. Prices are on par with NYC prices, maybe a quarter higher than average. Service was sweet and patient. Pretty great cafe for relaxing and socializing overall.

    Pizza nights!
    Peter L.

    I was very critical a number of years ago when Sullivan Street dropped their fresh sandwich menu. In the last few years they have improved their sandwiches a LOT. They aren't made-to-order but they are fresh and delicious. A BIG plus is also their outdoor seating, which is a wonderful option and quite plentiful. As always, their fresh breads are the very best!

The Mango and Pistachio looked so realistic and mirrored the flavors perfectly. I love the size of their cakes which are perfect to share with a group of 4. I indulged in their Black Sesame Mochi Cake and Blueberry Chiffon Cake which both have the fluffiest sponge cake base, a fluffy vibrant cream, and fresh ingredients and fruit. Give their drinks a try too. I enjoy their matcha here! The Traffic Lights is a strawberry matcha with a mango cream top.

It felt like items weren't made with care and mass produced at a factory or something. I went 10 minutes before they closed and there was still 10+ of each dessert. I'm not convinced that they will dispose of them. Even if they do, it means they didn't do a good job in forecasting demand especially after being in business for multiple years. I ordered mango and yuzu. Both were too sweet and had one dimensional flavor and textures, not refreshing per their stated flavors. Even if their appearances take effort, they don't look pretty enough for me to forgive what goes in my mouth. I'm used to having patisseries with many layers and elements. Mango's sponge probably only took up 20% of the bottom, because I barely had bites of it. Most of my bites didn't have any. I didn't like how liquid the filling was. It didn't exactly ooze out but just melted into a puddle in my mouth. Yuzu looks pretty with the pink and yellow glaze, but it didn't go with the realistic fruit theme. I chose it for the flavor combination which is strawberry, yuzu, and guava. This was slightly better in terms of flavor variety in the mouth. The flower on top had a weird off putting flavor. The bottom crispy rice apparently is supposed to be chocolate but it came out plain. It was tasteless anyway, so not effective in terms of flavor or texture.

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!

For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!
