No one else makes muffins like this! Full of juicy fruit and they have a crispy crust on the outside. The best!!! Also recommend the iced latte ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Definitely the best muffins I’ve ever had…also the chocolate banana bread is incredible.

Great place. Very tasty muffins and coffee. Strong espresso :) Nice bench out front. Good place to swing by on a weekend and just hang. Especially when the sky is blue.
Meg Rowe
Really tasty coffee and the muffins are exceptional. Visited twice in one weekend!

Great neighborhood coffee shop/bakery, best for morning visits as they close later in the afternoon. Very relaxed atmosphere and kid-friendly. The space is small and doesn‘t have many tables, but they have a lot of children’s books ready to entertain little guests while their parents refuel with coffee.

We‘ve always loved their muffins, which are baked in small batches and available piping hot throughout the morning. Favorite flavors are triple berry and blackberry nectarine (see picture)

Special shoutout to their cinnamon buns: they‘re the *only* bakery who offers intense flavor without drenching the bun in sugar/syrup. They‘re light, not-too-sweet, and very cinnamon-y. Available with sugar glaze for people who prefer it sweeter, but we keep coming back specifically for the un-glazed version!

The description says cash only but they take Apple Pay/card! Muffins are worth the hype, and even though I came after 12 they still had some that were warm. The strawberry cream cheese muffin was soo good. And the coffee is solid as well! Just wish I hadn’t discovered this place right before I’m moving out of nyc!

Grateful that they were open by 7:30. The croissant was pretty good, not the best but somewhat above average. The turkey egg brioche was dry, completely flavorless and the egg was overcooked.

Their muffins have some interesting flavor combinations, but we found them to be a little too dense and dry. Heads up, it's cash-only!
