Rachel 🍰February 6, 2017Cronuts were a tid bit sweet for me but the chocolate chip cookie was delicious
Jenny A.December 30, 2012Try the Blood Orange Poppyseed Cake; its like a creamy fluffy orange white chocolate creamsicle with a little poppy crunch!
Vanessa IglesiasSeptember 20, 2013Come really early for your cronut, by early I mean 6, 6;30 and wait in line until 10am
Cynthia PflaumJanuary 12, 2013Chances are, you'll end up wearing part of the treat you bought - but that's okay. One of the best croissants I've had in a long time.
Luís CasanovaMay 3, 2014If you don't manage to stay in the line for the cronut, have the DKA, absolutely delicious!
RashanatorDecember 8, 2012Grab yourself a little cappuccino and a perfect little egg sandwich for a wonderful start to the day.
Eric StephensDecember 18, 2014Arrive around 9:45am to miss the crazy line if you're ok skipping the cronut. Everything is amazing.
Stefano BattagliaAugust 9, 2014I really loved the DKA and yogurt!! Nice little garden with tables in the back
Novelty pastries aside, this place has the best canelé in the city.
Daniel MaliaJanuary 27, 2019DKA is an acceptable substitute to the Cronut. They (Cronuts) run out quick so come early.
EllenAugust 27, 2013Got there about 10:10 on a Thes. Cronies sold out 1-2 people ahead of us. We didn't care. DKA is incredible!- K. M.May 28, 2015I don't quite get the thrill about the cookie milk shot. It's definitely not unmissable. The salted caramel éclair was pretty good. Expect a line.
Sarah JungSeptember 25, 2013Get a DKA!! Best in SOHO! If you wanna get a CRONUT be there early in the morning like 6am....
Cronuts sell out every morning, but the made to order madeleines are amazing.
Nina CJune 28, 2013Pre-order your cronut 2 weeks in advance on Monday afternoons. Unless you love waiting in lines at 7am, of course.
Jet LandisOctober 24, 2013Preorder the cronut instead of waiting in line for hours. In the meantime, grab a DKA.
- You must try the madeleines, they will be freshly cooked for you and served warm!
Breakfast egg sandwich on buttery brioche can't be beat and the canneles transport me to my favorite patisseries in Paris.
Simone JungDecember 14, 2015The cronut is meh, so go for the DKA and their lemony madeleines! It's like a little bit of Paris in Soho.
Jade L.May 13, 2015If you really really really want a cronut but don't want to stand around at silly o clock: http://cronutpreorder.com/products-page/cronuts/cronut/
Tatiana HanDecember 24, 2015The cronuts sell out quickly! Anything they sell with chocolate is recommended.
Gnat BrainJanuary 28, 2016Order your cronuts ahead of time and just jump in line anytime during that day to get 'em.
- Jonathan PevarnekDecember 18, 2015The cronuts are great, but not worth waiting in a line for. Just pre-order online and you can walk right in to pick them up.
Forget the Cronut... it's all about the Frozen S'mores - think summer camp on crack
Jamie OldsJanuary 27, 2015The rendition of s'mores was incredible, along with everything else made here
Spotted by Locals - city guides by localsAugust 3, 2015Just keep to the right when you enter the shop, if you don't have to buy a cornet Read more
Kale chicken caesar salad may be the only way I'll eat kale in the future! Pastries (delicious) speak for themselves. Only fault? Weak coffee.
Cappuccino a bit flavourless and anywhere that has an hour wait in the rain for a cronut at 8:45am seems a bit crazy to me

"Love the smell of this place! Cookies were too brownie kinda cookies. Share with someone they are huge. Overall good but not my favorite kind. What I really love here is their cold brew. It's a must!"
