Great baked good selection and good whole loaves of bread! The staff is friendly. I haven’t had the coffee, but the chai latte is good! Not too sweet. Good place for a grab and go or to dine upstairs in Essex market.
I would give this place a five star for the food, no doubt. It’s my favorite spot to come for pastry every weekend. However today, around 4:25pm, I walked into the store again with excitement, waited in the line, the girl who’s working at the counter just kept ignoring me and would skip me & take other people’s order. I finally asked her if I could order, she immediately gave me an attitude and told me “I didn’t see you!”. She asked me what I wanted, I told her my order and she just put the pastry into a bag and threw it onto the counter, didn’t say a word as I was paying, turned around and totally disregard me. I never just categorize someone’s mistakes as them being a racist, but by her skipping me (the only Asian there) and took other white customers order and then throwing me the “I didn’t see you!” to justify her terrible behavior made me really question whether she has some problem with certain people. I didn’t say anything aggressive to her, but she treated me as if I did something terribly wrong. Huge disappointment, I doubt if I would ever wanna come back again if the worker’s being this insanely rude.

Their croissants are proof of skill. Excellent product. Across the board their baking is some of the best in the city. I don’t understand any review under 5 stars.

Have been a regular here for a while but it sucks now due to the staff. they're rude and don't have any idea how to make coffee drinks. they don't know the difference between a latte or cappuccino. I order a flat white and they basically just give me an espresso shot. They should hire real baristas because it's currently an embarrassment to have these people serving drinks

They close early all the time. 2 hours early today. Came in for a loaf at 4 pm- says they closed st 6. They are bagging up bread, shutting down machines. Frustrating to try and buy bread for home after work and show up with everything packed away. This happens consistently. Love their bread, hate their inaccurate early closing hours.
Café d’Avignon is an artisanal bakery café in NYC, founded by the same team behind Pain d’Avignon, the award-winning bread bakery that has been supplying Michelin-starred restaurants and top hotels for over 25 years. Bread is at the heart of everything they do, and they do it exceptionally well. The bread is impeccable. I particularly enjoy the small ham and cheese sandwiches they serve. The coffee is also excellent—strong and well-balanced. The staff is friendly and efficient, and the relaxed vibe of the café makes it an ideal spot for a quick breakfast or light lunch.

Coffees and teas are really delicious. I can't give input on lines and service as we went early on a Saturday morning and it was really quiet along with the rest of Essex Market.

We were in NY for a week and had a hotel around the corner, and went for breakfast somewhere else once, but then went back to Café d'Avignon every morning. Such nice people in the service and such good things, good coffee and such lovingly prepared tea! Quite expensive for us (Germans), but it was worth every penny. Thanks again!
