Burrow
68 Jay St #119, Brooklyn, NY
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside a DUMBO office lobby like a well-kept secret, Burrow is a Japanese-owned bakery that proves restraint and refinement go hand in hand. Their carefully curated selection of pastries showcases delicate Asian-inspired flavors—think marron pound cake and feather-light chiffon—that never veer into oversweetness, making this cozy spot the kind of place where quality whispers louder than variety. Whether you're stopping by before work or settling in to linger, you'll find the kind of humble, welcoming community vibe that makes discovering hidden gems feel like joining an insider's club.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Get the tiramisu chiffon and rhubarb tart, and the texture and taste of both are so amazing. The chiffon cake is soft as a feather. Price is reasonable. Also love the cozy humble community shop vibe. Will go back soon.
