Coming here was a delicious trip down memory lane, enjoying some kremes and Sacher torte. There was so much temptation and the staff was super-friendly and helpful. This place is very popular—there was a line out the door—but the wait was worth it. If you want a taste of Hungarian sweetness, make the trip, and I say this as a first generation Hungarian-American who grew up with a lot of these mouth-watering specialties!

No one come for me but I feel like this place is so overhyped.. everything I’ve tried from here has been dry as a bone!!

Even tho this picture resembles the aftermath of the 300 battle scene, it has nothing to do with the pastry I had. The cappuccino was foamy and with great texture and the danish was insanely good. Don’t mind me. Will come back.

This place is lovely. The hand written signs, bakery string pulled down from above the counter, kind young ladies behind a wall of cakes, great prices, a sea of chatting table sitting college students, a down to earth spirit hungered for by the line waiters out the door… and the exciting potential of tasting Hungary! But in the end, after a few visits (keep being lured back in) the pastries are just not so tasty. But that’s okay.

This coffee shop and bakery is well known for a reason. I’ve been coming here for years, and the quality of their drinks and baked goods have remained consistently amazing, and you can tell everything is made with care. My favorites are their cappuccino topped with cinnamon, carrot cake, and linzer cookies. But honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything. On the weekends, be prepared for a line and a bustling crowd inside. It’s worth it!

I know this coffeeshop since 1987. For me the best croissants in USA. There is no other Hungarian bakery in NY like this one.

Best carrot cake I’ve had. Made a special one for my gf’s birthday with less than a day turnaround. Thank you! Almond horns are amazing too! Very friend service!

Pretty mediocre place. There’s no space when you order nor when you look for a place to sit. And the pastries aren’t anything to write home about. Plus, the pastries aren’t individually labeled nor have the prices marked. Received a sliver of an apple strudel that wasn’t heated up and it was $6. This feels like a place that got big off of going viral or something rather than the substance of what it provides.

I’ve been a few times at this cafeteria and I’ve also gotten desserts to bring home:
- the pumpkin pie and cheese cake mix is the best dessert they have.
- the balaclava isn’t close to the real middle eastern balaclava and I don’t ever order it again.
- the cardamon bun is dried while the raisins bun is better accomplished.
- the tables at the back lack natural light.
- if you sit near the entrance, the door keeps being opened/closed and it gets very annoying (and cold during winter).
- the prices are high but the quantity is also large.
- the staff is very kind and they will let you use your laptop.
I’ll keep coming and suggesting to meet there with university peers
