Simple Loaf Bakehouse
310 5th Ave, Brooklyn, NY
Crema's Take
“This Brooklyn bakehouse is a pastry lover's dream with an impressive display of fresh breads and savory bakes that make choosing almost impossibly hard—think cheese Danes, ham and cheese croissants, and turkey jalapeño varieties alongside quality breakfast sandwiches. The shotgun layout creates an exciting visual gauntlet as you enter, and while the coffee is solid and fairly priced, it's really the exceptional baked goods and comfortable mix of quick-grab and lingering-friendly seating that keeps locals coming back.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.
