Worthy of the hype!

By Jeff |

Very good. Tried this place after the Starbucks Reserve Roastery was a flop! This was definitely the one! Don’t skip it if you are looking for great treats and coffee.

Beautiful discovery

By Dali z |

I came with my sister several times and location close to our hotel M social hotel , fast service and very friendly staff especially the MIRA waitress of a kindness and a professional at the top, we did not wait too long despite the world .The staff smiling and listening. Vegetable pizza excellent coffee (real Italian coffee) terrible. Thank you to MIRA for this welcome that made us want to come back several times. Looking forward to seeing you again on our next trip to New York. Dalila and Fatiha

Beautiful, good and Italian place

By Rebecca M |

Perfect place for a classic Italian breakfast, croissant and coffee but not only... At Rosetta Bakery you can find all kinds of sandwiches, pastries and much more

Casual, sweetly delicious Italian bakery

By dustythoughts |

This cute bakery was exactly what we needed to get some coffee and dessert as a pick-me-up. This place smells wonderful and is far more casual than some of the neighborhood bakeries, which we appreciated. We shared a pistachio tart, a lemon meringue tart, and a fruit tart, and got americanos - everything was fresh and good, and we liked that the tarts weren't too big. It was pretty busy here, so we ended up sitting at the counter by the window, which afforded us the opportunity to people-watch. If people are expected a refined place where they bring your food to your table, then I would suggest looking elsewhere.

Not to be missed even if a little expensive

By Carmela N |

Very good everything Variety, taste, attention to detail, spotless. I went back twice The only flaw is the prices

Try it!

By Amanda |

We stayed here twice in our stay in NYC. Friendly local and friendly staff. Good desserts, but also savoury. The first two hours of the day the cafeteria is free. Good cappuccino. Recommended 👍🏻

360-degree excellence

By Guglielmo F |

Local that has nothing to envy in terms of proposal and quality to many Italian counterparts. Delicious pastries and croissants, coffee and cappuccino of superior quality. Add also the friendliness of the staff and you can only give it top marks. Good. Yes, I do.

10/10

By Bentley B |

Stopped by for snacks and everything was so yummy and great, quick service too! Julio was the best! Overall, it was 10/10!

Italian style breakfast!! 100%

By Diego |

Delicious breakfast in New York, of course the prices are not Italian, but at least the food is and also those who work there. Starting from Gianluca a nice pastry chef who also gave us some tips, to the manager of Padua and the Roman bartender doc di colle salari. In short, if you want to have an Italian breakfast and drink a good cappuccino you have to come here. PS the crispy and excellent pizza.

Yum

By The random P |

Julio was very helpful and my pastry was delicious. Would definitely return. Was a nice break from walking all day and my strawberry tart hit the spot.

Fresh pastries snd sandwiches

By JCStover |

Just a few doors down from the Hilton Garden Inn on 42nd street, this bakery is great with many selections. The first day we got in line around 10 AM and waited around 20 minutes. The young worker wasn’t very friendly but the place was busy and he just didn’t seem thrilled. We would have liked to ask a few more questions about the options but he seemed irritated. We went with a plain croissant, a chocolate pastry of some kind, and a sandwich. That’s about as much detail as I can give! The sweets were very good - so light and fluffy - very very fresh. It was too busy to find a seat but we sat on park benches just down the street. A few days later on our heading home day we were there at opening with no line for a chai latte (excellent) and three of the chocolate pastries we had prior. Everyone enjoyed them. (Over $32 for the tea and 3 danishes). If you’re looking for fresh pastries or sandwiches, this is a good place to go.

Fantastic Bakery with multiple locations in NYC

By MauP60 |

Lover of Italian breakfast I was lucky enough to stay in a hotel practically five meters from this Bakery, very close to Time Square. Browsed delicious and cappuccino made to perfection. Basically we had almost all breakfasts in this beautiful bakery. Prices in line with similar Bakeries in NYC. Just good.

Bombolone and croissants

By Daniela A |

We had a coffee in this bakery that prepares wonderful Italian desserts. We had a cream donut and a jam croissant. Really really good. Also the great coffee. If you're passing through NY, stop here. An Italian friend who lives there introduced me to it.

Fantastic cakes and pastries

By photomanUK |

We ate breakfast here a few times on a recent trip - fantastic almond croissants and pains chocolat. Also tried the cannoli and they were possibly the best we had ever had outside Italy - so, so fresh, it was obvious they were made fresh each day. We also tried the pizza slices and they were delicious too. A lovely spot for breakfast or an afternoon pit stop.

Fabulous italian coffee and pastries

By Maria L |

Amazingly good coffee and eatery. Vast array of yummy Italian pastries and savouries. 25% discount for early birds made it a fabulous place for breakfast on our recent trip to New York. Well priced too. Highly recommend.

ROSETTA TOP TOP TOP

By Olaf77 |

If you are in New York breakfast at Rosetta is a must!!! Nice place, clean and makes you want to eat everything on display!!! EXCEPTIONAL BOMBOLNI!

Not only of pizza lives the Italian

By AndréaA |

Place of Italian pastry of extremely good taste and lightness in decoration, delicious pizza and foccacias (seem to be the most requested), sweets in the right amount of taste and beauty. Very pleasant.

Italian Treats

By Acineto |

We came by for afternoon tea after doing a short bike ride around Central Park. The place is quite large but also quite busy. We were very fortunate to be able to get a seat when we arrived. The tables do move kinda fast so seats can open up while waiting in line. There are so many tasty items on display. I was still full from brunch, so I wasn't able to try everything I wanted. I grabbed a cannoli and a sfogliatelle. Both were crispy and very tasty. The flakiness of the sfogliatelle was amazing. The central pillar also had water and cutlery if needed. Bring an appetite since all the items look so good.

UNIFORMED WORKERS CONCERNING HEALTH AND WHAT THEY SELL

By Mark S |

I'm a neighbor 3 blocks away. I know it's a holiday but the service was the worst with uninformed staff. ( I did not help that I had just come from Bread Bakery 2 blocks south where the same size line flowed smoothly.) No customers were at the 2 registers because no one on the line of 8 was getting served. The cashier was not happy she had to serve me. The holiday item looked shabby. She took a picture of it (?) then spent time complaining to the worker who was BLOWING her NOSE in crumpled tissues. When I asked for one of the nicer ones visible, she told me that it did not matter as the base was inedible which was FALSE as it is made of shreds of white chocolate. By this time it was pay and run. The nose blowing with NOT washing hands was bad enough without the UNINFORMED, UNYIELDING cashier. I tried to call - mailbox full

Declared Italian but coffee is not

By ViaggiatoreV V |

New place in Lincoln Center. Good croissants. Good coffee. Very uncomfortable seats. They do not invite you to stay to enjoy breakfast. The coffee served is not Italian. Strange thing since he declares himself Italian. High prices, normal for the area.

A great breakfast spot!

By Travelling with Northern Lass |

The pastries were always fresh and really tasty! The shop does get really busy so make sure you arrive early to bag a seat.

Cafe Dine and Run

By Thinktravelj |

Pastries and Italian lunches near the Kelly and Mike studio. Coffee is perfectly Italian. Cafe is a quick stop between walking Columbus Ave.

Super recommended!

By elisabetta |

Top! Delicious bread, sandwiches made in a simple and tasty way! At last! Really good and super recommended for both sweet and savory!

A great time with lovely food

By ECKRtravel |

What a great place and the super friendly and welcoming Aron from Italy at the counter made our day! We loved it and we will be back! We had a marvelous baguette and a very nice coffee and sweets

Beautiful and extra delight

By Virginia C |

Amazing cafe, extremely welcoming and helpful service, delicious comfort food and beverages. Latte is perfection. It’s a gem in downtown New York

Delicious breakfast

By IF121824 |

During our stay in NY we always had breakfast at this Bakery. Freshly baked and fragrant pastries, top espresso coffee, new and very clean place. Friendly and always smiling staff, a special mention to Gianluca who helped us with the order and was extremely friendly. If you are in the area or even if it costs you a few metro stops, go there, you will not be disappointed

Food done right

By DougManchester |

This was round the corner from our hotel and it’s excellent. The confectionery is second to none, sandwiches look great and good coffee. Yes it’s expensive but you get what you pay for. I’d go back for breakfast every day if I lived here.

Good Variety of Casual Food and Sweets

By synToronto |

Location: Near the Lincoln Center on Broadway Food: A variety of upscale but casual food that consists mostly of sandwiches, pizza, cakes and bite size sweets plus coffee. Dine in or take out: There is an indoor and outdoor dining area, but it is scramble style where you seat yourself. Depending on when you come there may or may not be a spot. Overall: Good for a casual bite and a short linger if you’re in the area.

AMAZING 🤩

By Boo13x |

Wow. The pizza I had was absolutely delicious, then I had a pastry covered with strawberry jam. It took me back to my childhood!!! It was a taste of heaven. So so good. You can eat in or take away. Really good prices too. Will definitely go back.

Precious

By Cinara Vila |

Charming, perfectly located Italian café Dec 2024 • Solo Rosseta is exactly the kind of cozy café you hope to find in the heart of New York. Nestled on the bustling Broadway, it’s the perfect spot for a coffee break and a taste of Italian comfort. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with the smell of fresh espresso and pastries greeting you as you walk in. I enjoyed a cappuccino and a perfectly portioned pistachio biscotti, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. What makes Rosseta special, though, is its casual charm—nothing feels rushed or pretentious. Sitting by the window counter was a highlight, offering the best view of the lively Broadway streets. Watching the rhythm of the city while sipping coffee felt quintessentially New York. If you’re looking for a quiet, sophisticated sit-down experience, this may not be the place. But for those seeking a laid-back café with great coffee, delicious treats, and the added bonus of prime people-watching, Rosseta is a must-visit.

A flash of “Italianness” in the Big Apple

By Diciamolecosecomestanno |

Almost like in Italy! Unwatered cappuccino and croissants full of cream, really full! Friendly and helpful staff

great solution for brunch in Manhattan

By sandromac |

Great solution for eating Italian style sandwiches and pizzas and really good desserts! Various types of bread with fillings of cold cuts, cheeses and vegetables (Italian recipes), and various types of desserts (muffins, tarts, pastries, croissants, desserts with ricotta cheese...). Hot, cold and freshly squeezed drinks are available, food is consumable on site as there are a few tables, which are always cleaned by the staff at each change of customer. The environment is very bright and spotless. Takeaway is also possible, and prices are affordable (considering Manhattan prices). Really recommended!

ok pastries, not ok service

By Steve F |

It's standard policy that if the customer does not like an item for any reason the staff should return or exchange that item. Apparently Rosetta's brother didn't learn that, didn't tell his staff that or doesn't care about his customer's satisfaction.

Especially for lunch

By Manu H |

For your breakfast and lunch it's pretty nice. The sandwiches are very good, the pizzas too. You can order with confidence. For the pastry, I leave you to judge because I am not a fan.

Perfect bakery cafe

By Alex Jackson |

Light, airy, lovely staff, exceptional baking, strong coffee. We simply had the most lovely breakfast. We will be back!

Wonderful new eatery by Lincoln Center

By Julie V |

Great food, pizzas, pastries, espresso drinks, sandwiches. Seating inside and outdoors. New eating option across from Lincoln Center

Bakery in Nice Location

By Mounir |

Rosetta Bakery is strategically located right near the intersection by Lincoln Center. The space is clean with plenty of seating, both indoors and a few tables outside, perfect for enjoying nice weather and looking at the Lincoln Center. They offer a variety of pastries, sandwiches, and other light bites. The coffee was surprisingly good. It gets busy with people coming from performances, so sometimes you may expect a long wait.

Breakfrast at…. Rosettas

By Ivo K |

What a great offer! Definitely highly recommended for breakfast or lunch. Coffee in all kinds of forms from a fantastic coffee machine. In short, if you are in the area, just drop in…

Grab a bite, grab a seat and enjoy - the best quality baked goods.

By SDBEC1 |

Amazing choice, top top quality, big eats. Staff were friendly and helpful, taking time to talk through the goods. The white chocolate croissant and Nutella doughnut were delicious.

Excellent service, authentic Italian pastries, and very good cappuccino!”

By Laura F |

I visited Rosetta Bakery today, and it was such a wonderful experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm welcome. The staff member who served us was incredibly friendly and attentive. She took the time to make sure we were comfortable and even gave us some great recommendations, which we really appreciated. The bakery offers a fantastic selection of Italian specialties, which, as an Italian myself, I found especially wonderful! The ambiance of the bakery is also cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a little break. I highly recommend Rosetta Bakery and will definitely return – not only for the delicious treats but also because of the outstanding service. Many thanks to the team for such a wonderful experience!

Very nice.

By NathalieH |

Great place. There are appetizing, delicious products. The whole is very clean and the staff friendly.

Super

Perfect.

By Maria E |

We tried this place in NYC, it is located in a great location very close to Times Square. Great quality food, friendly and friendly staff. Super recommended!

Snack in New York

By Vittorio71 |

Beautiful Bakery near Central Park and Columbus Circle. Here you can stop for lunch after a nice tour. The highlight is the enormous rosette which can easily be shared with another person. The cafeteria is also excellent. Online prices for New York

Nice selection of Italian pastries and coffees

By JoeKupe |

While staying at the Hotel Edison a few blocks away we were out walking one evening and stumbled upon Rosetta Bakery. Well lit and clean it looked like a nice alternative to the myriad of other coffee shops with few offerings beyond coffee. We came back the following morning and had an Americano, a Chocolate Chip Cannoli, and a Croissant. All were very good and the folks behind the counter were most helpful. Our son returned a few days later to do some work while enjoying a coffee and we are already looking to return on our next trip to NYC.

Poor service staff

By jenchan000 |

Food is good but service is horrible. The staff are not rude per se but also do not understand that they work in a service industry. Assiduously said “please” and “thank you” and smiled for their work. Nothing but stony stares. Service staff in NYC are generally friendlier and more engaging than those I’ve run into in other US cities. This place is the unpleasant exception. As for the food: sandwiches are good as are most desserts. Would not recommend those in tart shells, which are subpar.

Great breakfast with

By Veronica C |

We had breakfast at Rosetta's during our vacation in New York. Great croissants for breakfast. Very large and good filling. Fast and friendly service

Love Rosetta!

By snuffer |

Friendly staff, clean establishment and the perfect Macchiato!! Nice to have in Times Square area. Would definitely recommend

Tasty brunch

By Karen P |

Delicious ham and cheese brunch rolls Great tasting coffee Spotlessly clean and great service Definitely recommended

Top quality

By darkrai4613 |

Fabulous food wide variety and great flavours let's not forget the friendly staff. Well worth a visit be it for a pastry sandwich pizza of a coffee. Top choice I went here every day quality food.

Spicy pizza and cozy atmosphere

By Danny |

Very nice place and well cared for in every detail. The pizza is delicious, slightly spicy, but the other dishes are also really good. The staff is friendly and welcoming, ready to meet every need. Recommended for those looking for a pleasant dining experience.

Great breakfast and Italian sandwiches

By BB_Switzerland |

Excellent croissants with nutella/pistachio, cream, as if you were in Italy, freshly made. The sandwiches are delicious (long raw and brie with truffle a fairy tale!).

Very italian food

By la forcella |

Discovered by chance a few steps from times Square is this place where you are projected into a corner of Italy .. recommended both for breakfast and lunch ... exceptional pastry.... also deserves attention the savory ... bright room directed by Italians .. only coffee to improve

Good quick breakfast with tasty options

By Dana E |

Went there twice for breakfast. Excellent apple strudel, muffin, and small quiche. Coffee is a little small, would have liked bigger mugs. It’s an important element of our day. That said, we came back the next day. Service is quick and friendly and no problem getting a place to sit. Traffic moves in and out quickly.

Great Cafe

By jules1408 |

Wonderful cafe in heart of NYC with a neighbourhood feel. Food was amazing and staff so friendly. Everything we tried was tasty and well presented

Afternoon treat

By Caterina S |

Passing by chance we could not resist the temptation and we entered. Beautiful place, friendly and helpful staff, really good desserts. We will definitely be back.

Excellent breakfast

By Aspirinetta |

Really good food, welcoming and trendy place, exceptional area. Excellent quality (as an Italian I confirm). Prices definitely too high, but perhaps in line with the city

My favorite cafe

By InnSpiration |

This is one of my favorite cafés. The atmosphere is wonderful, the staff is incredibly friendly, and the coffee and sandwiches are consistently excellent. I would love to see this café expand and open locations in every state, and I can easily imagine this concept fitting beautifully inside lifestyle hotels. This café truly has the potential to become my “third place”—a space where I can relax, connect, and feel at home beyond work and home.

Very nice shop

By Isabelle A |

Very nice place! Very good slice of pizza and the meringue lemon tartlets are delicious! Very nice to land before going to Times Square

Best breakfast

By Hermann |

The best breakfast so far in New York, great pastries, very nice service and a very pleasant ambience

Julio is the best!

By James A |

Awesome customer service from Julio! My wife and I were drawn to the window due to the delicious treats displayed and Julio gestured us to come with the biggest smile we have seen in our trip to NYC (we are from Canada) so far. The pizza was great and the pistachio treats were incredible! Thanks again for the great service Julio you are the best.

Loved everything and will be back soon

By Noraatc |

We stopped at this lovely cafe to sample their mini-pastries. We had two flaky sfogliatelle and two mini tarts: one apple almond and another one raspberry. Loved their sfogliatelle and will be back for more. The tarts were delicious too. Their service is excellent, fast and cheerful, the cafe is spacious with many places to sit down and enjoy Italian pastries with a cup of coffee.

Great bar and bakery

By Giuseppe C |

Great place to have breakfast, lunch and dinner. Good pizza and good sandwiches with quality ham and bread. Very good desserts too. Clean and welcoming room. Small part of Italy in the center of New York!

Great food, large choice

By Francesca N |

I had a slice of Pizza Margherita (very good) and a bombolone with pistachio sauce (very good). The quality is good, the service efficient.

Nice.

By Nwl.B |

Very nice, there are very nice pastries and pastries. Small coffee break, the café opens at 7:30. There are places for lunch.

Espresso coffee 100%

By SamyCecca_22 |

I recommend this place to those looking for a good Italian espresso / capuccino. The desserts are fantastic and also the quality of the sandwiches / focaccia is very reminiscent of the Italian one. Clean and quiet environment. Prices in average New York.

A place not to be missed

By Catia D |

Missing for a disservice breakfast at the hotel, we arrived from Rosetta. An experience we will not forget. Welcoming, super food and great espresso. We had breakfast all 5 mornings

Tasty Bakes,Confortable seating

By ShS369 |

Weather permitting ,sitting outside could be a pleasure, enjoying bakeries, watching the lights at Lincoln Center and passers by. Quality varies. Pistachio mini cakes and tomato mozzarella are delicious .Sofas inside extend a social atmosphere. Did not try their capuccino, seemingly handled by new staff.

Great option for a light meal in the heart of Manhattan.

By Beatriz d |

Great option for a pretentious meal in Manhattan. There are pizzas, sandwiches and varied desserts and everything very tasty. The environment is clear, clean and the service very friendly

Feeling at home

By Michele M |

We had breakfast there every morning of our holiday. Big and good brioches, the envy of many pastry shops in Italy.

Italian stop with Italian taste!

By Baby |

We always had lunch here.... Pizzas, sandwiches, salad.... Sweets.... Mooooltoooo good and Italian! As well as some very nice staff people. Recommended

Best in town

By Gerardo Montervino |

Best bakery in NYC. Feels like home. Friendly polite and helpful staff. Very nice and clean place. Exceptional desserts. I tried a Venetian blind, a croissant and a donut. Top Even the delicious salty. Council sandwich mortadella and cheese

All right.

By claude508 |

We knew this sign on miami , again everything is beautiful and good. A wide selection of pastries and sandwiches. The bread is delicious and of very good quality. Go there you will no doubt be satisfied.

A pleasant break

By Marianna N |

After an intense morning as tourists, the stop at Rosetta Bakery was very pleasant. You can choose from a variety of sandwiches, all delicious, pizzas or desserts. The place is nice, there are tables, but also sofas for relaxing and sockets for charging your mobile phone.

Great products

By Vetmcc |

Cheerful environment, quality yeasts and a great assortment of sweet and savory. Staff courteous and quick in service.

Exceptional

By anna G |

Very good products, both sweet and savory. Exceptional Krapfen. Great cappuccino. Pleasant setting in the center of Broadway. The best breakfast spot in New York City. Good!
