Flaky Sfogliatella Anchors An Old School Bleecker Stop
Take a seat with classic Italian pastries, espresso, and giant cookies on Bleecker Street.
🥐 Flaky Layers
Flaky sfogliatella and espresso set the pace at Pasticceria Rocco, an old school Italian pastry shop on Bleecker Street. The case leans traditional, with breakfast items, custom cakes, and a row of oversized cookies that turn a quick stop into a small spectacle. The bakery also has a comfortable dining area, giving you room to sit with a pastry instead of carrying it back outside.
Order the sfogliatella for its crisp, many layered shell, then pair it with espresso while you scan the counter. One surprise in the classic lineup is the plate sized M and M cookies, a playful detour from the traditional pastry spread. Rocco opens at 7 AM every day, with closing at 10 PM Sunday through Wednesday, 11 PM Thursday, and midnight Friday and Saturday.
On Bleecker Street in Manhattan, it works for an early breakfast, a mid afternoon sugar break, or a later pastry run. Keep Pasticceria Rocco in mind when you want a sit down bakery stop with a distinctly Italian point of view.
