🧪 Buns, Burritos and a Test Kitchen

Smør Bakery & Test Kitchen is a Williamsburg bakery with a second job, working as the recipe development lab for the brand at 155 Powers St. The counter turns out handmade breakfast burritos, cardamom buns and seasonal quiches, and regulars single out the burrito and the buns first.

Portions are generous and the staff is friendly. Behind the counter, the kitchen tests new pastry ideas, including an experiment in prinsesstårta technology, which gives this Scandinavian bakery a curious edge. Coffee, sourdough and pastries round out the order, and catering is available for a bigger spread.

The space stays relatively quiet and dog friendly, a calm pause on a Brooklyn morning walk. Doors open daily from 8 AM to 5 PM, long enough for an early coffee and bun or a late afternoon quiche before heading home.
