French Pastries Meet a Ten Layer Crepe Cake in DUMBO
Delicate sweets, savory bites, and coffee share the counter at this Brooklyn favorite.
🍓 Raspberry Cream Layers
The signature at Almondine Bakery is a crepe cake stacked ten layers high with raspberry and cream, and its sweetness stays balanced rather than heavy. Croissants and peach Danishes follow the same light hand with sugar, while savory quiches and sandwiches widen the choice when lunch belongs next to dessert.
At 85 Water Street in DUMBO, classic French pastries share the counter with fresh breads. A small seating area gives a latte and a pastry a place to linger in a quaint, cozy room, and friendly staff keep the stop easygoing.
The doors open Wednesday through Sunday from 8 AM to 6 PM, and the bakery stays closed Monday and Tuesday each week. That window covers an early breakfast pastry, a quiche at lunch, or an afternoon slice with a latte. Order the crepe cake first, then add a peach Danish if there is still room.
