Never thought I could enjoy bombolonis made outside of Italy, but theirs are simply perfect!

On a particularly warm and golden Wednesday afternoon, a few friends and I made our way to Sullivan Street Bakery—a spot I had been meaning to visit for some time. Nestled on West 47th Street, the space had an inviting charm: sunlit interiors, rustic tiling, and that unmistakable scent of fresh bread weaving through the air.
We ordered: – Strecci Pomodoro – simple, satisfying, and rich with the kind of flavor that speaks to well-honed craft. – Peach Pastry – golden, flaky, and gently sweet, with a seasonal brightness that landed just right.
The food, without question, was enjoyable, and the interior carried a kind of quiet, rustic hospitality that made it easy to settle in. Unfortunately, the experience was dimmed by the service. The barista on duty was noticeably curt, almost dismissive, which shifted the energy in a way that was hard to ignore. And while I’m not one to linger on negatives, there’s something about service—especially in a place that celebrates warmth and craft—that shapes everything.
Before we left, we had hoped to try another pastry, but what we saw gave us pause: multiple flies hovering near the display, some landing directly on the pastries. For a bakery of this reputation, it was unexpected—and honestly disappointing.
I rarely feel compelled to voice critique, but in this case, the experience didn’t reflect what I had hoped. Still, I recognize the quality of their baked goods and the history behind the name. Perhaps it was just an off day. But in a city full of exceptional bakeries, the details—both in taste and in treatment—matter.

Food was fresh and delicious. The bread was soft and tasted great. The staff is very friendly and they play great music that compliments the relaxed environment. I highly recommend.

Visited the place around noon. Quite bakery/coffee shop to chat or do some work except that the seats are not comfortable for than 45min-1hour. Limited pastry options in my opinion but good variety of pizzas which is what I went for. It was a decent choice.

I dream about returning to this bakery. Bring back the cannotos! And try the tomato strecci!

Stumbled on this little place on way to uss intrepid with wife and daughters stopped for a quick coffee and sandwich, possibly the best turkey sandwich I've ever tasted well worth the visit

Sandwich descriptions could be more straightforward and include all ingredients on signage. Baristas don’t know all ingredients used. Difficult for special allergies. Clever WiFi password though.

Fanatic experience at Sullivan st! When walking in I was warmly greeted and all my questions were thoroughly answered. I ordered some whole wheat sourdough, 3 slices of their pizza, a sandwich, and a Bombolone.
The Jam Bombolone was interesting. Very fresh blackberry jam and the bread wasn't overly sweet. However when I come back I think I would like the vanilla more.
The pomodoro slice was fresh and simple, my favorite slice was the Sciliano. Really great flavor combos.
The prosciutto cotto sandwich was great! Really simple ingredients but quality which makes for an excellent sandwich.
Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Quick, efficient, and super friendly service! A gem of a coffee shop. Food and drinks were also delicious and had a great selection.
Stopped by for the second time while my car is being serviced at Lexus. This is a very nice cozy bakery with comfortable seating. Great looking selection of pastries, breads and sandwiches. Today I had the scone with chocolate and an Americano coffee. Came with a small biscotti. Both were very good. Lots of take out business and many locals seem to sit in and enjoy the cozy atmosphere. Several people doing business on their computers. Bathroom is spacious and clean. Definitely will go again.

A fabulous addition to my bread-adventures, I braved a walk through times square (which would be terrifying in any conditions) in horribly aggressive wind I swear to god it was like getting run over by a pack of bulls but anyway I survived and I made it and I followed the festive Sullivan Street flag into this fine establishment. I was greeted by a rush of warm, foccacia scented air and an array of beautiful baked things. All of their bread sounded great but I went with the Truccione! An interesting choice since I'm one person and I think it would feed a family of twelve (GREAT price considering that). I'm still working my way through it. It's nice and airy inside, soft, nutty, with a great crust. It's making things like this sandwich you see here possible. I'm over the moon with it. Excited to try more of their breads
