Mike ShermanAugust 10, 2015Almost everything is incredible, authentic, like grandma baking. Especially recommend the danishes, the pies, kitchen sink cookie, and earthquake cake. Great little cookies too.
Philip HarperJanuary 19, 2012Yo when a bakery has been been around for 109 years it's amazing but to be here in the UES in NYC even more so! Apple crumble pie: Crazy! Apple rhubarb pie:Bananas! Black and whites: Outstanding!
shoshana gApril 5, 2018TRY EVERYTHING. I’ve been coming here my entire life, and they never disappoint. My favorites are the cookies—except for the black &white, because they frost instead of glaze, which is blasphemous
Jennifer HoJune 21, 2018Incredibly slow service but well worth it! Closing down July 1st so remember to snag a few pastries soon!
Mike FriedlichOctober 14, 2016Best black and whites in nyc. The icing was so moist. Another amazing treat I had here were chocolate chip cookie squares, which I possibly liked even more.
DunjaFebruary 28, 2014Famous for the black and white cookies but try out as much as you can as everything is amazing. They let you taste anything so don't be afraid to ask!
Friendliest staff. Everything's delicious, but my favorite's the kitchen sink cookie. It has everything, including potato chips, and it's magical.
Ale TowerMarch 20, 2017Legit local bakery. Grab some small pieces and head to Carl Schultz Park to enjoy them with a view over the river!
Serious EatsDecember 4, 2013100+ year-old bakery best known for its moist, flavorful black and white cookies.
Tom DiMaggioApril 21, 2018charming old bakery that's been around for over 100 years. black and white cookies are really good!
Matt GormanMarch 16, 2018Black and white cookies are unbelievably good. But they're closing up shop in July (owners are retiring) so time to start stockpiling cookies
Lauren CMarch 2, 2017Omg the rainbow cookie was the best I've ever tasted. Like unbelievably fresh, homemade, and perfect meld of flavors.
Buford BarnesFebruary 24, 2012Established 1902 and continuously family owned and operated with some remodeling. The coal oven was originally in the basement, but moved upstairs in the 1950s.
David BanOctober 17, 2012B&W cookies are the real deal - they're not as pretty as the ones at William Greenberg's, but they also don't cost $5ea. Snag some minis for the road, too.
Caroline WuApril 17, 2016More traditional American pastries rather than European types but so yummy. The friendliest staff!
Lydia VanWormerMarch 14, 2017Cinnamon donuts are everything. I can't wait to pick some up this fall with a jug of apple cider!! 🍎
Libby JApril 28, 2010Everything a bakery should be and more. Chocolate Pudding Pie like my grammy used to make and sourdough on Wednesdays that barely makes it to Thursday at our place. But the best thing? The staff!- CarolineMarch 14, 2016UES. Best B&W cookies, VV. Used to be a German area. 112 years in business. Old school.
AhuvaOctober 24, 2016They weren't kidding - best b&w cookies to be found uptown, and possibly on the island. Yum!
Meringue tarts, brownies, black and whites... everything is delicious. Very friendly staff, too!
Amazing pecan danishes and black and whites with a sweet and friendly staff. This is one of the best bakeries in nyc and a true neighborhood classic.- CarolineFebruary 10, 2015UES. Best B&W cookies, VV. Used to be a German area. 112 years in business. Old school.
Nina LoSchiavoAugust 7, 2014Black and white cookies are so dense and tasty they can serve as a meal.
Rashaun ForrestMarch 7, 2014Try the key lime danish ... amazing. This place has been around 111 years
Chris HariharMarch 24, 2012It was just okay! tried red velvet cupcake, cookie whoopie pie, cannoli, and black and white cookie. all a bit dry. prices are great, though.
- Stephen PerleFebruary 13, 2016The staff here couldn't be friendlier or nicer. Couldn't every merchant get employees like this.
Leslie CaseDecember 24, 2012So the Dept of Health closed this place 12/23 siting a number of issue. Nostalgic place for sure but health standards need to be net, regardless.
David SmagulaSeptember 2, 2011Anyplace that's been around for 100 years is doing something right. Best B&W Cookie in the City.
Everything is amazing, I just wish they were open later on Sundays.
Try the All-American Brownie... as featured on the PBS show "New York Originals"
Cash only. Everything is amazing, but donuts are my fav.- DoubleDeuceFebruary 20, 2016It's like having a bakery in an antique shop. So weird. But you know that you can't not come here and not buy at least a little something...
