ZenFoodsterOctober 25, 2014Canotto w/ brioche dough, gruyere, prosciutto, & mascarpone is my 1st pick of savory items. And for my fave sweet one, I'd take any 1 of their Canottos w/ bits of super-juicy & fresh seasonal fruit!
Great playlist, yummy pastries, and wonderful people. Get the cornet pastry!
SambukaAugust 28, 2016The Salciccio (?), or whatever the hell its called, is freaking delicious. The texture of the egg is unlike anything I've ever eaten.
Martijn SijtsmaFebruary 14, 2018Fresh sandwiches Italian style, great combination of ingredients. Yummy!
Serious EatsOctober 10, 2013Best Bomboloni: The one filled with vanilla pastry cream is our favorite, but the chunky caramelized apple and raspberry are excellent as well.
Village VoiceJune 10, 2013As far as filled donuts are concerned, we're hard-pressed to find a finer specimen than the bomboloni. Treat yourself to the vanilla custard one; a delight you won't forget!
Sarah SmithsonJune 20, 2017Food and coffee are off the hook and the seating area is spacious, but exactly appealing or relaxing. I'm surprised they opened here the location/area is derelict.
RisaMarch 8, 2016Can't go wrong w the poached egg bowls or sandwiches (especially the BLT). Make sure you try the bomboloni (Italian doughnuts)!
Everything is really good, but make a point of trying the bombolini one day. the best, most pillowy, doughnut dough ever. Get it with the vanilla bean filling!
Anna NYCOctober 4, 2015Everything I've had here is great. The pizza, especially the potato, is delicious (with a perfectly crispy base). Sweet pastries and cookies and the coffee are great too.- Michael FrancoeurAugust 20, 2017I grab a loaf of the whole wheat sourdough (the TRUCCIONE SARÉ) at least once a week. It's the best bread I've had in the city (to date at least).
JeffreyJuly 20, 2014Ceci, a falafel stuffed with chickpea fritters, beets, kimchee, and pickled onions. They’re served on his elegant pizza bianca, a soft and chewy dough slicked with oil and dusted with salt
I love these guys. This location is larger than the other and has more dishes from the kitchen, but both have the outstanding olive oil cake. So all it good.
KikaOctober 29, 2015Got the SSB BLT. Good for a snack (you'd need to eat at least 2 of these if you want a real meal). bread is delicious, thick cut of bacon, fresh veggies and guac!
Grace LeeApril 24, 2015The "traditional" egg sandwich was good, but the chocolate bomb-oloni was the bomb! There isn't an excess of cream and the bread part is soft and chewy in a good way (for anyone Korean, 쫄깃해)
One of my favorite bakeries in the city Bomboloni is amazing, lots of awesome breakfast and brunch options, cortado for the caffeine fix!- Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014Recommended are ceci (made with chick pea fritters), porchetta (Tuscan pork roast), and caprese (after the salad of tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil leaves).

This place is amazing and the service is great! Na'Kita (sp) and Freddy are amazing and once they know your name they never forget it! George is pretty awesome too :-)
Time Out New YorkJune 19, 2013For little more than a Hamilton, you can load up on a panino built atop a trusty loaf—the combo of salty prosciutto, rich buffalo mozzarella and pickled shishito peppers is a standout. Read more
Jason QuarisaOctober 30, 2017Everything is delicious. Poached egg bowls are my new favourite way to eat poached eggs. The bomboloni and pastries are all amazing.
Nicole TsengMay 5, 2018Them egg sandwiches are a-maz-ing. Add a cream bomboloni and I will spend every Sat brunch here.
Matthew KamenSeptember 21, 2013Delicious breakfast panini with eggs and crispy pancetta. And get a croissant, if only to marvel at the quantity of butter.
Get any of the egg sandwiches. You’ll be craving those soft scrambled eggs for days.
Tasting TableAugust 9, 2012Come here to get your hands on Jim Lahey's breads. A chickpea-fritter sandwich with a citrus-yogurt dressing and a bomboloni filled-to-oozing with vanilla cream make for a satisfying lunch: Read more
AlexJune 21, 2015the ceci panini is everything. chickpea fritters, pickled onions, kimchi, greens, etc. heavenly.
JanaFebruary 26, 2016Everything they serve here is delicious. Great spot for breakfast or a quick bite.
Sonny DatoyOctober 13, 2014easy to overlook, but the espresso-based drinks here are outstanding. they know how to froth milk like any of those third wave guys.
Service not entirely consistent, but the breads, sandwiches and breakfast dishes are nearly always outstanding. Chickpea sandwich is a standout. Espresso better than one might expect.
Lena MalačkaSeptember 21, 2019The was I’ve eaten here was ricotta bread with tomatoes. It was absolutely excellent.
CompassMay 15, 2014You can find bread from Sullivan St. Bakery at Babbo and Bistro Margot, but you can also get it from the source at the Hell’s Kitchen outpost.- Elizabeth CarrJuly 20, 2014Bombolini is phenomenal. Also check out breakfast and lunch -- lovely egg sandwiches served on perfectly crusty fresh baguette.
- Kimberly-Lyn PressmanJanuary 28, 2013Jim Lahey fans will be excited to know that you can pick up his bean and beef chili in time for the game. For $24 you get a quart of chili and all the proper fixings
- Serious EatsJune 4, 2013Great bread, tasty sandwiches, and some standout sweets. Don't miss the pizza bianca.
Jordi LlobetJune 6, 2017Great home made yogurt with fruit. I recommend to be there early. Long queues on rush hours.
Zach HamedOctober 25, 2015Best croissant in New York—warm, crunchy, sweet. No really, it's worth commuting for.
Ben FishnerMay 5, 2015Any of the square pizza slices, they're served room temp and so damn good. Or just grab a loaf for the road.
Melanie W.June 10, 2015If you are a fan of Jim Lahey's amazing no knead bread technique, then you definitely have to try one of his signature loaves.- George MaierAugust 27, 2016Coffee, bagels, and other pastry type stuff. All of the 'sullivan restaurants' are excellent
Egg sandwich with roasted tomatoes and pancetta ranks as one if the all-time bfasts. The bread in this place is hard to beat.
Sue ApfelbaumAugust 7, 2013pizzas are always good. so is the mixed green salad w/ radish and fennel. wish it were a better work spot, though. laptops are ok, but no wifi. and current playlist would be better in spinning class.
Ollie CartwrightDecember 8, 2016Excellent brioche egg and pancetta rolls. Properly indulgent way to start the day- Dominic FerraroFebruary 13, 2016The bomboloni with vanilla custard was really good and this place has a really cute atmosphere!
Blake OlmsteadOctober 28, 2015A more refined selection of pastries than the shops nearby. I only wish I'd bought a few loaves to go.
Colin LeeFebruary 20, 2017I like the vegetarian egg sandwich. The sweet pastries tend to sell out fast
