7th.List: Yesterday was opening day for this new Chelsea bakery. On the menu are raw, vegan, organic and gluten-free baked goods. Our new favorite pastry, the kouign-amann, is also on offer. Read more.
Ethan the Vegan: Seriously, THE. BEST. BAKERY. EVER! Vegan or not, why go anywhere else??
Rob K: Friendly staff and delicious (and dairy-free) baked goods, but a small coffee and cookie will sadly set you back about 6 bucks.

Alec Jarvis: Bodega with amazing egg sandwiches and toasted deli style sandwiches. They deliver quickly and reliably as well - you can order online. Great beer selection in store.
Elie Bleier: Almost killed a lady's foot with my backpack and a table, and am now relegated to sitting in the corner. Otherwise, Toasties is a perfectly acceptable breakfast option.
Camille Danielle: best (breakfast) bang for your buck in Chelsea

Sofia Machado: Very tasty sandwiches and fries! Kind and efficient staff. Nice, chill atmosphere. Would def. come back if in the area.
Belle Lenz: Great addition to the otherwise tragic neighborhood around Penn Station. Perfect for a casual work lunch.
Caroline Schulweis: Great healthy food option in this area (great before an event at MSG). But be prepared - they don't take reservations so there might be a long wait.
