    My all-time favorite spots for Nordic-tinged baked goods. I get tea here - coffee is just OK. Beautiful design down to the smallest detail - backyard garden complete w/ koi pond.

    The cookies are truly scrumptious and you can get the hints of salt! The cups they serve cappuccinos in are the cutest too!

    The cookies and pastries are incredible. The chocolate peanut cookie has whole peanuts and is dusted with sea salt.

    Along with their (presumably original) location in Greenpoint, Bakeri does the best croissants in Brooklyn. Possibly even the whole city. Perhaps the entire damn coast!

    Overwhelming amount of delicious pastries to choose from, I love the kale and cheese pinwheel. Cute but very cozy (ie. tiny) so I usually take my treats to go.

    A hazelnut Rosemary chocolate chip cookie with a counter culture cappuccino in the backyard with a koi pond makes a great afternoon treat.

    Love this small shop of massively great taste. Lisa, Robin and blue jumpsuit crew are bundles of sunshine. As with so many great places, Bakeri is undone by success. Too cramped most of the time.

    Their rye bread comes very close to a proper Danish "rugbrød" - lovely place for coffee and pastries

    Small but cozy little bakery and cafe features superb breads, baked goods, and sandwiches. A woody communal table add to the neighborhood feel.

    Very unique and authentic bakery. Nothing is too sweet, just the right amount. Variety changes every day, but make sure to ask about the lemon bars.

    The grapefruit avocado kale salad is super yum! And you can’t go wrong with any of their baked goods.

    The line might be out the door but it's very cute and cozy inside. They have delicious pistachio and carrot cake. Bread pudding is always a good option, too. Cash only!

    Cute place with nice coffee... many options of pastries as cookies and if you want some ciabatta bread for a good price

    Garden in the back is a MUST. Don't sit in the back room--too much traffic. Tries a bit hard to be cozy, but just ends up cramped. If you go to a Norwegian bakery and don't get skolebrød, you're wrong

    Get your coffee to go, walk down to the park on the water - and enjoy your treats with a view of Manhattan

    Enjoy an apple crumble pie in the small, quaint back garden. If you're thinking about the lavender shortbread, skip it.

    You can't go wrong with the apple cider flowers, the herbal (usually rosemary) salted chocolate chip cookies, or any of their various brioches.

    If you get there in the morning the Skole Brod is often still warm and possibly one of the best bread products on earth.
