I am one of those rare people who does not like chocolate. Having said that, most vanilla cakes usually are all the same. A dry cake with an over sweet, very dense buttercream. I must say, I was very pleasantly surprise that this was not the case at all with the cake my family bought from here for my Bday. The cake itself is huge. Each layer of cake, is the full cake. Not cut down and falling apart. It is also moist and delicious. The frosting is not overly sweet where is coats your whole mouth. It was a delightful amount of sweetness, with a great texture. You can tell is was made fresh. It has now become the go to cake for the holidays. I know we should try the other flavors, but we are all so happy to have found a great cake that we all agree to love, we are sticking with it.

I am a huge fan! The cafe is well run, always have something fresh baking and the staff is so pleasant to deal with. I stopped by recently with a last minute request for a cake for a weekend getaway with family & friends and asked if they could inscribe 'happy summer' on the cake. Not only did they have the most beautiful inscription, they also decorated the cake with the most fun summer vibe (beach umbrellas, tiny lounge chairs, sprinkles etc.)! The cake looked so pretty and was absolutely delicious! I adore businesses that go that extra mile to make your order special and Crumbly Café is top of my list!

I fell in love with this place immediately with those fresh baked blueberry scones... So good! Same with their Chai Tea. What i love most is the customer service. There were 2 different times something went wrong but it was easily remedied by staff. Shout out to Josh and Mia! Thank you! Maybe i will even see you Tomorrow morning for another scone while i am in town! I love this place so much..the only reason i am not here everyday is because i travel and am mot always in the neighborhood. But when i am...forget Starbucks folks!

  • Zeno

This place is amazing and we are very grateful that they have joined the neighborhood. We have been waiting for an excellent Bakery for so long. Mia and André and Mia‘s mother are fantastic. Everything is baked on site and it is delicious, specifically the bread, the muffins, the brand muffins, the cookies, the unique Nutella cookie! We ordered carrot cake & baguettes for Thanksgiving and it was wonderful. Everything is very good. And the staff is amazing, all-around a wonderful experience. Sweet people. Sweet product.

  • Izabella Savich

I go here every morning before work and that will NEVER change. Not only is the marble cake super rich but the butter croissant and chocolate chip scones go perfectly with a rich morning coffee. For any occasion involving others, I love getting the pistachio croissants, mini jelly donuts and Oreo balls as a dessert and they are always a hit!! The warm and welcoming atmosphere created by the staff has made it my favorite place to go on any day, for any reason. I HIGH RECOMMEND!

  • Giovanna M

I have been to bakeries pretty much all over the world. I have never experienced this level of love care quality in all of my traveling years. The immense hospitality, that the owners who, by the way are a lovely couple provided was an experience that marked my New York City trip. Oh, I highly recommend anyone who is coming to New York City to come here and try their suites, even if you are from different states or different parts of the world, you need to fly Here

  • M M

Crumbly is a wonderful addition to this neighborhood! The cappuccino is a MUST - one of the best I’ve ever had. To go with that nectar of the gods, their savories and sweets are divine. The turkey and cheese on croissant is perfect for lunch, and the cheesecakes, cookies and large cakes are like ambrosia. You cannot go wrong with your selection here, and Crumbly bakes ALL DAY LONG so everything is exceedingly fresh, unlike so many others throughout the City.

  • Michael Tilghman

Great family owned bakery in Sutton Place. My wife and I come here every weekend. There is a huge variety of homemade cakes, muffins, scones, croissants, cookies to try. If it's your first time you should absolutely try the Crumb Cake or the Nutella Cookie. Both are insanely good. Space is a little small, but there is outdoor seating. Get there early on weekends if you want to try whatever new thing they've imagined that week, as they do sell out!

  • Alexandra G

Small bakery with the nicest staff that literally has everything and it’s all SO SO GOOD!!!! Also best coffee in NYC! They also do custom orders! I ordered a custom cake for my husbands birthday and they had it ready within a day - it was perfect and exactly what I asked for, plus it tasted amazing (and normally custom cakes from other places don’t taste good - this one was UNREAL!!!) Highly highly recommend Crumbly - my favorite !!!

  • Henry Hahn

Super charming bakery in Sutton with really friendly staff. Great place to go for coffee and a treat. The muffins are a highlight for me (all of the flavors are awesome), but they have tons of other cakes and sweets that look delicious as well! Update: Today I brought in croissants and danishes for everyone at work and those were equally amazing. This is the best bakery in the neighborhood, hands down. Look no further!

  • Kaitlyn

Crumbly is the best! We love going all the time for great coffee and fantastic baked goods. The staff is always so sweet. I ordered a cake for a birthday very last minute and they were so nice and accommodated me (their cakes are the best! The coconut and the vanilla ones especially). We also really enjoy their scones and cookies. All in all, a great little find and so happy to have it in the area!

  • Sam Ruel

Incredible spot! The baked goods are always delicious and a perfect breakfast or snack, and the service is outstanding. I went in to see if there was any way to get a last minute cake for a birthday in our office and much to my surprise they were able to put one together for me same-day! Incredible service, kind staff, and delicious through-and-through.

  • Lisa Greiner

The owners of this store are wonderful. They are extremely kind and accommodating. I ordered 20+ cupcakes last minute one morning for a party and not only did they go out of their way to help me, but the cupcakes were both beautiful and delicious and reasonably priced! I am a very satisfied customer and grateful that they opened in our neighborhood.

  • Irene Choe

Great coffee (probably the only decaf drip coffee served in town), great pastries (all baked in-house), great people (M, her husband, mother and father)… Best cheese danish (I see some of my rivals here) so go when they’re out fresh, they are served with love and loyalty. I bring neighbors that I love and share the danish and cookies. It’s worth it.

  • Hanan Alwaseem

The owners are very sweet and the baked goods are delicious and fresh. My favorites are the coconut cake, chocolate fudge cake and the banana cream pie.

This bakery is something special. Not only did they make a delicious cake for my son's third birthday, but they took the time to listen to exactly what I envisioned for the colors to go along with the fun toppers I had bought. The owners and staff are kind, thoughtful which truly sets them apart from the rest! Not to be missed!

  • Noah Katz

I just discovered this gem in the middle of Manhattan. It made my morning. The coffee has the perfect taste and the owners are the nicest people. The outdoor seating also amazing!! I will definitely be coming back tomorrow to taste their baked goods which look fantastic! Affordable prices too. Recommend x1000 !!!

  • Nicole Elise Vartanian

My son's birthday cake exceeded expectations. The staff at the venue where we served it said it was the most beautiful cake they had seen there. It was so easy to work with Crumbly--even as I was desperate and gave only 72 hours notice! I highly recommend and will gladly return to Crumbly for any future needs.

  • Kathryn McGlinn

The best bakery in the neighborhood - not just my neighborhood either! I have continued to be wow'd by the service and quality. There is no better place to go for all baked goods and even a coffee. I bring cakes and treats when visiting family and friends and they love the product too. Best all around!

  • Olivia Levine

Most delicious marble cake and coffee I’ve ever had! Everything is homemade. One of the best bakerys in NYC hands down! Pricing is also affordable and staff are super friendly and pleasant. Comfy outdoor seating area. Highly recommend!! If I could give this place 10 stars I would ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is our neighborhood gem. All the cookies and bakery are made fresh in the store by the owner. Love the place not just the taste of what they have to offer but also the attitude of the owners who are the main staff who runs the business. Try their pastries, you will be hooked

This family-owned business is a true success. It's clean, well-organized, and offers delicious options. I tried the banana cream pie, which was fantastic. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful with recommendations. They also have outdoor seating. Highly recommended.

Stumbled into this terrific new bakery on First Avenue this morning. Delicious baked goods including cannolis, avocado toast, croissants and more. The guy helping me was super and the two owners were in the kitchen baking. Great place for breakfast or just a great treat.

  • kristen o'connor

Crumbly is the best bakery in NYC! It’s a neighborhood gem with delicious breakfast pastries, treats and cakes. They did the most beautiful birthday cake for my daughter and it was delicious! We love crumbly and hope they’re in the neighborhood for generations to come!

Love crumbly bakery! All of their items are delicious, but favorites are the Oreo balls, Nutella pie, and brownies. Everything taste homemade. The owners are very friendly and treat you like family. Would recommend to anyone in the area of visiting

  • anna cutlatsakes

I ordered a custom Minions birthday cake for my 2 sons. The cake decorations were perfect. Exactly like we discussed. My sons loved it and so did everyone else. The cake tasted delicious. The bakery had great communication and arrived on time.

  • Vinay Saggar

Inviting local cafe/bakery with good-tasting and diverse pastries that are freshly made throughout the day. The pieces of cake and cake-pops are, as expected, the best of the desserts to choose from. $5 a pastry. 4/5 stars as a dessert shop.

  • Justine Fenner

Best bakery on the UES! Almost everything I have had here has been exceptionally tasty and fresh. My favorites are the double chocolate cake, nutella cookie pie, peanut butter chocolate cookie, banana pudding and oreo balls. Staff is super

  • Sazzie Zer

I walked by this tiny place and stopped by because of the great baking smell. I found the best carrot cake I ever had in my entire life and I had never liked carrot cake before because they are too sweet in general. That said a lot.

  • Aileen Chu

Great neighborhood addition! There is a favorite for each member of my family …. Rice pudding for me (best ever), Banana rice pudding for my husband, and pretty much any cookie and mini pies for my kids.

  • Belle Newman

The Crumbly Team created the most amazing custom cake for my Mom's 60th birthday! We asked for a classy, chic cake with subtle beachy elements and they delivered beautifully! And it tasted delicious :)
