Yesterday, on the most beautiful day of 2026 thus far, I made my way to Librae Bakery down in the East Village. Spring perfect weather, everyone in a good mood, topped with the perfect pastry = my cup of tea! I first heard of Librae Bakery in the Fall when I did the Bakery Half Marathon — and it was one of my top finds. But I had never been there until this week! And it is a MUST GO TO if in the city.
The store is so cute and has tables to sit inside. They have a variety of sweet and savory pastries, as well a handful of sandwiches (they look to die for — they are made to order, but I saw some people eating it and they all looked fabulous). I loved everything in the store, but especially this croissant disco ball. Can I have this for my apartment? (I also loved their sweatshirts with croissants on them — but I was focused on finding the perfect pastry to eat).
