Ashley ChanMay 18, 2017Another Middle Eastern-focused gem in East Village with limited tables. If you manage to grab a seat, it's a great place to chill. The hot toasted almond "rose" pastry out of the oven was fantastic.
First We FeastAugust 3, 2014Chef-owner Zohar Zohar creates a variety of homey cookies, sticky buns, babka, and rugelach, plus a lentil soup served with buttery potato knishes that you should not miss out on. Read more
Yogita MathurDecember 13, 2014Cozy up at a window seat w/ a Stumptown brew and baked goods, particularly the dulce de leche cookie and lemon shortbread bar. Add a Zucker's halwa rose to the mix for an Israeli-esque bite.
ᴡ ElliotMarch 1, 2017The Super Salad is the best salad I've had in the neighborhood, maybe the entire city. It's filling but not huge, so you just leave satisfied.
David KirschJuly 24, 2015Cinnamon roll was tasty. Other, less typical rolls (date, chocolate, etc.) also looked good. Yogurt with homemade granola was excellent. Pleasant escape from the hubbub of the East Village.
SusumuOctober 27, 2015A cozy little cafe in East Village. Their Stumptown latte is nice to be enjoyed with alfajore. They have other Jewish pastries.
- FreshNYC p}-:{>November 13, 2014The Homemade cookies and pastries at this Israeli East Village pastry shop/ café are moderately sweet providing artisanal delicacies where sugar doesn't override distinct flavors and spices Read more
Kingsley YoungerMarch 23, 2015They make the best fruit cake made from dates, figs, apricots, and four different types of nuts called Love Load. It is the best fruit cake. And it's dairy-free (non-dairy) too!
Graphic AgencyNovember 28, 2013The East Village baker is stuffing its jelly donuts with actual meat, for a sweet-savory handheld treat. Powdered-sugar exterior and option for turkey/gravy or turkey/cranberry fillings.
Inga BergmannJanuary 26, 2017The avocado challah was so good! Fell in love with zatar and have it at home now :-)
- Incredible pastries and coffee served up in a quaint EV shop with just the right amount of tables and chairs. They also sell and ship cookies online.
Cam_in_BrisSeptember 28, 2017Very friendly server. Tried three different types of cookies and they were all yummy.
Amy ChenJuly 26, 2016Cute bakery with light deserts. I worked there for a little bit, great atmosphere. Free wifi.
Ashley RoseNovember 10, 2013The roses (cinnamon raisin buns!) are unreal. That and a soy latte- the perfect Sunday morning. Don't worry about cash only, they have Square.
Perfect place to pick up some yummy treats on your way to Tompkins sq park. Their date cookies are absolutely delicious and so is the avacado spread
Anastasia EnotAugust 25, 2015Very nice barista, good iced latte, cortado has too much milk in it. Pastries are amazing, very fresh. The space is cozy.- Chiara MartiniSeptember 5, 2016If love avocado toast you should try the one here, with Zatar! Different from any other I had in the city
Santia ValerioDecember 28, 2013Such a cute homey cafe! They even have games and more importantly Rummikub! A hidden gem for pastry & coffee lovers.
Love the cozy atmosphere, staff, chocolate rose, avocado toast and quinoa with sweet potatoes & green beans.
Katja HaackOctober 23, 2015Cute cafe, quite small but cosy. The coffee was awesome and the homemade croissants were still warm and delicious
Wish I could spend all day every day with a book in this lovely, butter-scented spot. Try the mocha alfajore!
Talk to the staff, grab a cold brew, try out some treats (honey almond fingers!), read a book, then sit outside and enjoy the block!
Moritz LawitschkaMay 13, 2016Grilled Cheese Challah Toast and a Cortado for breakfast and that day's going to be your friend!
AmateurConciergeJanuary 18, 2016A tiny cozy coffee spot/bakery that feels like you're in a small town on Main Street. Israeli influence
Julian ModestoMarch 15, 2015THE MINI ALFAJHORES ARE DULCE DE LECHE FILLED COOKIE SANDWICHES AND THEY'RE BOMB
Ruth TupeJanuary 13, 2017Fell in love with this place. The service is amazing. And their tea selection is epic.
Serious EatsNovember 11, 2013A tiny, family-owned bakery with great classic sweets like babka and rugelach.
Village VoiceFebruary 14, 2013Zucker Bakery (& 50+ other eateries) will be sampling their fare at our 2013 Choice Eats tasting event on 3/19 - can't wait!
We are hosting professor radish friday dinner … Must try So Good
CharlottesNovember 17, 2015The cutest little place with delicious sweet treats w slight Middle Eastern twist.
It's like the tiny Jewish bakery version of Chocolaterie Maya (yes, from the movie). Simple, classic, and absolutely lovely.
Venkatesh KondamSettyMay 5, 2015- Season special must try sweet potato marshmallow filled #Stufganyot
Everything is delicious, but the roses in any flavor are the best.
Cheryl JohnsonNovember 5, 2011What a happy place! Get the chocolate ball (as per the baker's daughter) to enjoy with your stumptown!

"Maybe the best bagel in the city. My favorite, at least. Open Sesame bagel sandwich is so good. Definitely worth a visit, even on a crowded weekend morning. Bring cash!"

"Both a full blown restaurant and a nice place to grab wine or beer. Has a cute outdoor garden. They play mild music, perfect for a late night conversation. You can find people reading books at 11pm."
