Carissa's the Bakery - East Hampton Village
68 Newtown Ln, East Hampton, NY
Crema's Take
“The pastries here—especially the creative savory options like kimchi croissant and pistachio-chocolate croissant—are legitimately exceptional and worth the inevitable weekend crowd. It's an Instagram-ready spot with solid coffee and a dog-friendly patio that works great for a lingering breakfast, though service can feel dismissive depending on who's behind the counter. Go early or expect to wait, and manage your expectations about staff warmth.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly.

We visited this popular bakery on September 19th around 10am. Luckily, it wasn’t too busy, and since it was our first time, my partner and I were excited to browse this visually appealing spot. Unfortunately, the gentleman with the moustache didn’t seem to be in a good mood,…
Good bakery food. Got the turkey sandwich, chicken bahn mi for breakfast. And also chocolate-pistachio croissant. Enjoyed everything. Also liked our coffees. Good vibe. Dog friendly outdoor seating available too.
The baked goods here are one of a kind and terrific. Wish we had a Carissa’s on the upper west side! The kimchee croissant was everything. Love a good savory treat. Be prepared for a short wait on a weekend morning and for things to sell out. Go early!
