Pep Bakehouse & Coffee Shop: Bakery | New York

This family-owned shop receives its pastries fresh daily from a Brooklyn production site. Inside the tiny, hole-in-the-wall space, the selection is small, highlighting items like pistachio and cherry almond croissants and chocolate cookies made without additives or preservatives. The kitchen uses domestic ingredients for its modern take on a French patisserie. It also serves as a quick stop for a chai latte or a personalized coffee before hopping onto the Verrazzano.
