Cutest bakery ever. Their Latte was delicious. I tried the Supreme Croissant, the wait tome was 5 min early in the morning around 9am. I guess I had very high expectations so it didn’t blew me away bit still it was nice to try it out.

A must visit location for amazing pastries and food. You cannot visit NYC and not make this restaurant a part of your stop. Just amazing flavors and service. If you’re not able to make a reservation online via third parties try walking in as they most likely accommodate your visit. Pastries are not served at your table, you must purchase them separately FYI in case you’re planning to dine in and please be careful walking down the few steps to the toiletries as they’re small and slippery.

We are tourists from New Zealand 🇳🇿. Heard and seen so many Instagram stories/ posts about Lafayette Bakery and their famous legendary croissants.
We ordered both the pistachio and the chocolate and they were both fantastic. Lived up to the hype …. Tasted divine.
The atmosphere in the bakery is very pleasant and it smells good.
It’s a must stop if you’re in the vicinity…. Happy kiwi customer 😊❤️

Lafayette bakery is a must stop!
I've seen many pictures and videos of their legendary croissants online and I knew I had to stop and try them on my next visit to the city. I am so glad I did.
The croissants are so so delicious.
We ordered both the pistachio and the chocolate and they were both fantastic.
My favorite of the two was the pistachio so make sure to try it out.
We also ordered coffee and it was great. We chose to take our items to go, but there were tables inside and outside if you wanted to eat your goodies at the restaurant.
I loved there's a separate entrance and counter area foe the bakery and ordering to go so the crowds do not interfere with the other diners.
The service was so great and I want to come back and eat in the main part of thr restaurant because all the food looks and smells so appealing.

Lafayette Bakery's long line for their Chocolate and Pistachio croissants had me curious. They were good, living up to their reputation with a nice flaky texture and rich flavor. Worth a try if you're in the area and have some time to spare in line.

What do you need for a top notch breakfast place? Great pastries, great drinks and great food. Check, check and check. One of the best almond croissants I've ever eaten. And a breakfast burger worth the indulgence. Beautiful breadwork and great meals. Worth the wait, but keep in mind the bakery is treated separately and you'll have to wait in line to get the scrumptious laminated dough masterpieces.

Really good food and good options on the a la carte and brunch menu. The service is quick and attentive. The atmosphere is really nice and relaxed but also sophisticated and plenty of people watching opportunities. Overall a good place to meet with friends or for a date. The prices are not cheap but not ridiculous. The cakes and pastries are superb. A must try

The croissants in this place are worth the wait! Definitely recommend trying for reservations but if not, just come early to the bakery section and try the croissant!! I had a plain one and a turkey and Swiss croissant sandwich—both AMAZING 🤩
I also got a maple donut for later and it was killerrrr! So good. Highly recommend. Worth the hype.

The circle shaped croissants are super cute. However, it's too sweet for me. The chicken curry croissant actually surprised me. Now it's the top 1 dish I will order if I go there the next time. Expect to wait in line before entering the Café. It's always a lot of people.

I came to try one of those pistachio supremes. It was very good, although a bit excessive. Maybe too much cream, although I liked it a lot. I found it quite expensive, though.
The place had a nice french decadent style. Lights were a bit too dim.
The restrooms, again with a decadent style, were not very welcoming.
The service in the bakery was not very friendly. My card, for some reason, didn't work here (although it works everywhere else), and the guy kept pressing me to pay. Not very pleasant.

Amazing Dinner and great service. Had a variety of things and missed a picture but the Escargot was my favorite Appetizer and the NY Prime Steak was my favorite entree.
Everything is devine and there is something for everyone. Always amazing if everyone orders something so that you get to try it all.
Highly recommend stopping here!

This is a perfect spot for a small brunch! Their Cortado is great, and I ordered the lemon pancakes which were amazing. While the menu doesn't have a lot of options, what they do offer is fantastic.

Delicious! Something to be said for turning up on a rainy day, with less queues. We could have eaten far more but restrained ourselves for this visit. We found this through Instagram and a bakery very much worthy of a visit. 🥐

It was a really good experience. The food was great and the service 10/10. Just I don’t like that we can’t order any of the pastries or the famous croissants at the restaurant. Instead we had to do the line to buy it .

A great spot for breakfast/brunch.
The options are limited not endless but the selection is decent. They have a bit of everything from sweet to savoury. From the flavour of the dishes, you can tell everything is fresh and made with a proper recipe by the chef.
We tried the eggs with potatoes; loved them both. We also got the pancakes and they were soo fluffy with just a hint of lemon & ricotta; it truly was perfect. The fresh lemon juice was also good.
The staff were very attentive. Great patio with umbrella but also has indoor seating.
I would definitely return here.

Surprisingly one of the best croissants I’ve had despite the social media hype (a huge red flag). Is it worth standing in line for an hour? No, absolutely not. But I passed by it in the morning and saw a very short line, so I had to try it out, and it was fully worth the short wait.
The circular shape is more than a gimmick. It exposes all the layers equally to the hot air in the oven, resulting in an even crunch. The crispy shell and velvety filling complemented each other. The custard was on the sweeter side, but it became the right amount of sweetness with the plain croissant dough.
Overall, highly recommended as long as the line is very short.

This place is just like a authentic bakery in Paris. They have sooo delicious croissants! I highly recommend the Pistachio Roll, it’s filling is very smooth and full of flavor. Also the cappuccino is high quality. The prices are a bit high, but it’s definitely worth!

After seeing their signature round-shaped croissants on Instagram, I made two visits to this place before finally being able to buy them. On my first attempts later in the day, they were already sold out.
I was fortunate enough to finally get the pumpkin and pistachio flavors. I wouldn't say I disliked them, but it's definitely a one-time experience for me. Usually, complaints are about too little filling, but this time, they were quite generous with the cream – almost too much! I'm not kidding, I found myself enjoying the second half of the croissant after squeezing out some of the filling.
The taste is good, but it's incredibly sweet.
