Disappointing how a place like this sells old baguettes on a Holiday. In french, we call this arnaque / rip-off

Edit in response to message below: if hard , dry baguettes is their style, then fair enough, but doesn’t change the fact that its bad.

The cookies tasted salty, the pain au chocolat is overcooked but the coffee was good

Cute little bakeshop that makes fresh pastries. I ordered the chocolate croissant and asked for it to be warmed up. It was really delicious and fresh. Every time I am in here, someone is purchasing freshly basked bread so that might be my next stop.

Really cute bakery with excellent ambiance and wide array of bread options. Unfortunately I decided to get a half sourdough loaf and it really didn’t have any flavor or any of the chew I expect from a developed sourdough. It tasted like regular white bread and they also don’t slice loaves for you (they’ll cut in half to sell you a half loaf but can’t slice it further). For $11 for a half loaf, I expected a lot more.

3 stars because the woman working there was very kind and pleasant and I think I probably just ordered one bad thing on the menu. The pastries looked divine and I’m sure they would taste great. Will come again to try something else.

Normally love this place but charging $20 for a loaf of bread… it’s very clear that this establishment is for a very certain demographic within the neighborhood. Wish they made their very basic amenities accessible for everyone not just the rich yuppies.

It ain’t cheap, but wow does it taste amazing! And if you have ever been to France and marveled at how good the baked things are, well, you will once again!

Bien Cuit has royally ruined pastries for me.

It’s so good I can’t order an Almond Croissant at any other cafe because Bien Cuit is like that one ex I’ll forever be pining over

It’s so good that I’ve renamed my Retirement fund my Rhubarb Danish fund because at this rate diabetes will get me before old age and I’m here for it

It’s so good that when I die my family knows to bury me with my Preserved Lemon Za’atar Scone under my Miche-shaped tombstone while Alexa plays Nothing Compares 2 U

It’s so good my boyfriend is worried and frankly I’m about two Ginger Muscovado Cookies away from calling it Daddy

Damn you Bien Cuit. Please never stop.

This place brings a taste of France to the streets of Brooklyn. Their pâte feuilletée (laminated dough) is buttery and flaky, making for excellent croissants and danishes. Very well done patisseries, although the financiers and cookies were less impressive.

I want to like their bread and pastry so much. The customer service is at no fault, but the corn bread loaf cake I got was so hard. I understand it’s made with corn flour but it should crumble not remain intact when you bite into it? Felt borderline stale as it was so dry. Also their baguette is sourdough and very sour. I didn’t see it labeled as so and still pretty sure it wasn’t so that was a bit annoying. For $5 it’s quite disappointing. The earl grey pound cake was decent, but not redeeming enough for the rest of the products. Other locations are significantly better (cobble hill).

What a fantastic experience!
From the moment I walked in I was in awe of the gorgeous offerings and beautiful clean space. Everyone was happy and in a great mood and that just instantly put me in a state of peace and stillness.
While enjoying this quiet moment I was enthralled by the interesting matcha milk jam. I then turned around to see the pastries on offer and was instantly captivated! I had been familiar with their “basic” products because Bien Cuit supplies many coffeeshops around NYC with croissants but this was a whole different level… purple potato hot cross bun?!? Earl Grey lemon loaf!?! Mandarin fennel bread?!?
Amazing amazing!
I bought it all and shared it with a friend. An exciting culinary experience!
Many thanks to Bien Cuit for helping to transform a fun afternoon into an exquisite one ?
