Fresh ingredients, many things can be made vegan, clean warm atmosphere, always tasty. Charming place for a Sunday afternoon or a midweek lunch. Small place can get busy.

Went to the pop up in queens. 6 donuts for 50 and they are a day old. Disgrace.
The America sandwich was delicious I was not so impressed with the donuts look better than they tasted to me. All the bread was very good and what did they do to make the perfect chocolate chip cookie is what i need to find out !
If Utica Ave ever needed proof that miracles taste better with elbow room, Almah Café has delivered. This location is warmer, more spacious than their Albany sibling, and the menu feels like it’s bursting at the seams with options.
This time I went for their so‑called Jerusalem bagel, which, spoiler alert, is not a bagel at all. What arrived was a golden, airy pastry topped with egg and pesto, and it was absolutely delicious. From there, I grazed happily: rugelach that should put store‑bought cookies out of business, a mushroom pastry that was savory and satisfying, a mini pizza pastry that hit all the right notes of comfort food, and a stunning almond pastry that was rich, nutty, and perfectly balanced.
To tie it all together, a mocha that was strong yet smooth, like the café itself, which somehow manages to be kosher, chic, and welcoming without trying too hard.
And next time, I’m definitely coming back for their Jaffa breakfast. Just like in Israel, it’s the full “everything breakfast”: two eggs cooked your way, fresh house salad, warm bread, and a spread of Mediterranean dips and cheeses. It’s the kind of meal that makes you want to linger, and I can’t wait to try it.
Between the expanded breakfast menu, the classics like khachapuri and pavlovas, and these playful pastry riffs, Almah Café on Utica Ave feels like a United Nations of baked goods. My vote this round goes to the Jerusalem bagel, almond pastry, and mushroom pastry, but breakfast is calling my name.

Got an assortment of savory pastries and everything was so good. This place deserves some hype because it’s just excellent! And to be clear— it’s not good for kosher food, it’s good PERIOD! Next time I’m in Brooklyn I will definitely be stopping here.
