Finally tried multiple items and feeling ready to review. For sure a bakery worth to visit in the area. Many unique pastries and bread. Some spaces to improve.
Croissants: overall good, flaky and crispy, but inside were slightly dry. I got a brick-shaped one with chopped pistachio and the Kouign-Amann.
Deli rye was gorgeous too. Really soft with crunchy edge. Based on my long-rye-eating experience.. I think it was less impressive and slightly dry.

Came here on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Literal best savory croissant of my life. Had the mortadella, pistachio, and pecorino croissant - their version of a ham & cheese croissant - and I didn’t want it to end. The dough was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.
Service was great. Space is really nice but be wary there is no indoor seating. A few tables under an overhang outside. Will happily sit in a bomb cyclone to eat this croissant. Enjoy!

Arguably one of the best croissants of my life. The mortadella one was so flavorful with each bite. I had it at room temperature and it was delicious, they may also offer it warmed up if you want the cheese to be melted.
They had a selection of teas, pastries, breads, and sandwiches/pizza slices. Will be back to try more options in the future.
The one set back is there’s only two tables outside for seating, so it’s better for a grab and go.

These people are so friendly, I clumsily dropped my coffee after I left the store, but they went out of their way to help me clean up and offer me a new coffee ❤️

I was on the hunt for some bread to make a tuna salad sandwich for a cheat meal. And I’m glad I found this spot, everyone was kind and incredibly patient as I slowly looked at their breads. They answered my questions patiently and it was just incredibly relaxing. I bought a focaccia bread and it was incredible, and their iced coffee was also incredibly smooth. I highly recommend this spot.

When Laurel first opened earlier this year, it quickly became my favorite bakery in New York, known for its exceptional pastries and the warm, intimate interaction with the baker. However, over time, my experience has unfortunately declined. The quality of the bread has diminished, and the extension of business hours seems to have affected its freshness, as the bread often sits too long.
Additionally, I have observed a noticeable decline in the friendliness of the cashier and barista, especially in comparison to other local bakeries. The coffee, an unusually sour and tangy flavor that does not pair well with the baked goods.
What was initially a highly anticipated and impressive establishment has become increasingly disappointing. The compromises made in quality and service have led me to reconsider my support for the bakery.
Decent but overpriced. Don't think I'll be returning.

I really like this place. Their bread is Stellar (capital S). The only reason for not a full 5 stars on food: pizza. I feel they still deserve a 5 star for all the fantastic breads, pastries. But honestly, skip the pizza.Actually: I still gave them 5 for food. Its just so good. Just not the pizza.

The pistachio croissant was excellent: a perfect amount of crunchy, buttery, and generous nutty filling. While the savory tomato escargot was buttery and flaky, on the other hand it was also too salty.

Amazing pastries! The sun dried tomato escargot is a must-try
