"The king cakes at this Carnival season stalwart (which is located on Broad, not Laurel) are made from a light, slightly sweet dough, braided and topped with a not-too-sweet icing, with similarly balanced fillings — praline, almond, apple, strawberry cream cheese, and Nutella, a customer favorite. Preorder online by Saturday, January 4 for pick up on Monday, Jan 6 (and throughout the season)." - Beth D’Addono
"There really aren’t that many places to get a classic tuna salad sandwich in town, save for Welty’s and Stein’s. Laurel Street Bakery’s tuna salad scratches that homemade itch, a version just like mom made. The bakery, known for its bagels, adds sliced tomato, shaved red onion, and hard-boiled egg to a sandwich that comes on sourdough, multigrain, an egg and onion roll, or a croissant. The chicken salad is another popular option, but really all the sandwiches are simple goodness, satisfying and familiar in the face of so many places trying to do something bold and different." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
"Bagels rule the day at this bakery on Broad (the original location was on Laurel Street), which includes a solid selection of freshly made spreads like shallot and bacon, date and honey, pimento olive, and lox. A wide range of bagel flavors including garlic and onion, marble rye, and cinnamon raisin are hand-rolled, boiled, and baked fresh daily." - Clair Lorell

"Step inside sunny Laurel Street Bakery and it’s hard not to feel an uptick in good vibes. More than anything, it’s bagels that rule the day with a solid selection including spreads, all made in-house. Schmear options include shallot and bacon, date and honey, pimento olive, and lox. And yes, sweets do abound: cakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, rolls — you get the picture." - Eater Staff, Clair Lorell
