Birdbath Neighborhood Green Bakery

“We went here for coffee and my friend suggested I try the pretzel croissant — he said it will change my life. 🙂
I have to say, it was mind boggling.”

“Definitely try the chicken cilantro sandwich and the kale salad!”

“It's really disappointing, since this is the only local take-out lunch spot I know if that makes a kale salad.”

  1. One of my yelp friends recommended this place because they have organic and vegan desserts. The vegan pickings are slim – I think they have a muffin and a cookie. With that said, they are totally worth it. This place is not to far from my job, so if I don't feel like walking to wholefoods, I usually take a trip here. I have to try more of the menu. My service was good, the staff seemed knowledgeable about the ingredients. Most of the items were well labeled.

  2. I went here to grab a quick lunch before a meeting. The layout is kind of awkward, there are 2 benches placed in odd corners, that is the only seating.

    I had the baked spaghetti squash, which was tasty, although a bit oily. And a dark chocolate cookie with white chocolate chunks. GOOD GOD. One of the best cookies I've ever had. Slightly caramelized exterior, soft moist interior, delicious rich chocolate (but not too rich or overpowering) punctuated by the occasional white chocolate chunk. Maybe the best cookie I've had in the city.

    It's a bit pricy but I'll be definitely return.

  3. Dropped in first thing in the morning to pick up a fatty Friday treat – the raved "bigger than my face"chocolate chip cookie ($3.50).

    I have the sweetest tooth and these cookies had me sweetened out within 3 bites. It felt like a chore taking in additional bites (who says that about chocolate chip cookies?!). Honestly I think I made better ones when I used to babysit. Not worth the hype.

    I may return to try their pretzel croissant for my next visit. Review to be updated.

  4. I stumbled in during lunch time and was thankful that while they could prepare lots of lunch food they had some premade, delectable dishes as well. They even have a small section where one could buy produce!

    Not a lot of seating, but the space is refreshing, and the selection is good. The dishes are whole and scrumptious. My tofu was uniquely flavored and included noodles and greens. Yum.

  5. After working a long day and hurriedly rushing along the wet sidewalks of NYC, this bakery was a nice pit stop.

    The sign outside says they are now open to 7pm Monday thru Friday. I look at my watch, it is 6:15pm. Great, I have a few minutes!

    I walk in and look inside the cold refrigerator case first, but no luck. Nothing was VEGAN.

    I then walk over to the pastry case and that is where I hit the jackpot. The friendly counter help pointed me to the VEGAN raspberry muffin, the rice milk muffin and two kinds of VEGAN cookies. Sweet!

    I got one of the VEGAN oatmeal raisin cookies and happily munched on it after yoga class. It was definitely VEGAN and you can taste the agave. It was well-made, but for $3 a cookie, I'll be going broke soon…

    This will be a treat once in awhile, but nice to know it is close to work! Great for an afternoon pick-me-up!

  6. Small space, super friendly people, yummy cookies. They serve the same mac and cheese and original hot chocolate as City Bakery, but you'll have to go to City Bakery for the special daily hot chocolate flavors for this month's festival.  Good place to pick up some lunch on a busy work day.
