Masa Madre

Been back several times, and all the baked goods, tamales and now tortas on offer have been good. The new tortas will cost more than your typical torta around here, but they're huge and come with your choice of four delicious breads (even if sourdough seemed not ideal for torta construction to me). The baked goods are a mix of the familiar (croissants, excellent conchas) and less seen (flat aguacatas, for example). Tamales are more tender than the ones you'll find on the street. And the service is friendly. Discount if you pay cash.

i loved all the bakes on my first visit. the cranberry walnut sourdough was absolutely delightful. conchas were one of the softest we had. mexican chocolate croissant could have more chocolate to it, but super flaky. (03/01) on my next visit (03/06), i got the same loaf, some doughnuts, cheese danish and dulce de leche buttercake. the doughnuts was super duper good, especially the chocolate one. cheese danish - i expected it to be sweeter, but it was leaning towards the saltier side. the dulce de leche buttercake, i’m abit confused with this. i believe it is supposed to be soft, light and fluffy but this was almost like a biscuit, tho the dulce filling was delicious, it should be filled more. because of how crumbly, scone-like this buttercake was, at the end, you’d only be coated with taste of the buttercake, not the divine dulce de leche. and unfortunately, the loaf is not as great as the first time. it was way denser, flatter, and slightly drier. (you could see the difference in the photos) i was pretty disappointed with this round’s purchase. i hope whoever baked the loaves the first round consistently does it, cause it is perfect! i will still comeback and try the bakes you offer, just letting you know my experience during my visit. thank you :)

The atmosphere of this place is wonderful. I got the vanilla concha, chocolate concha, regular croissant, and Mexican chocolate croissant. All very delicious. I was taste testing with my grandma who is also Mexican and she loved everything. The conchas were fluffy, the croissant was perfectly flakey and soft at the same time, and the Mexican chocolate in the croissant wasn’t too sweet which I loved. I’m definitely coming back another time to try more!

Absolutely worth a two hour trip! I love the cornbread. I actually ate it in the car along with the pan de queso , the best I’ve ever had. The piedra was interesting very tasty. I love the notes of chocolate… The donut was light fluffy and delicious.

It is the best Bakery Ive ever been to in NYC. Every baked good, drink, and food was 10 star. This is Mitchlin Star good and I said what I said and mean it. The Baker and owner has been working for over 30 years Worldwide. The restaurant is only opened in October of 2024. They blend Latin & European desserts, baked goods and food. The Rochelle Hose is outrageous and the sourdough bread and almond croissant, and pan dulce. Order all of the tamales. (Mexican and Guatemalan) and the stuffed Concha was delicious.

OMG - I’ve lived in NYC for 6 years and have struggled to find Mexican food with CA quality, but this bakery! Wow! Best conchas I’ve ever had in the city and maybe the best I’ve ever had?! You can really taste the quality in the ingredients and the staff were all so kind. 100% going back

An artisanal bakery selling conchas. I'm no concha expert, but I do love a sweet bread whatever the ethnicity (diversity in sweet bread enjoyment is crucial). These are very good to my non-expert taste buds. And affordable at about $2.50 each.

Mexican American from California here Tamales review: the flavors are there however the texture of the masa needs improvement. It is way too soft and watery and because of this you end up with a soggy tamal. I realize that it’s common in New York to use masa de polvo and prepare it. Not sure if that’s the case here but I am used to west coast masa where you purchase at a tortillería and the masa has flavor, color, and texture. Baked goods: the birote/bolillo is too dense/hard/chewy but the flavor is there and the texture is good. They’re not too airy. The concha is definitely worth it. They don’t add too much of the candy topping but the fluffiness and softness of the concha is fulfilling. Cinnamon roll, too dry and not enough sugar. However, the walnuts and raisins are a nice touch and if you dip it in hot chocolate you should be set. Overall, I do see myself coming back for conchas only. I loved the tamales because they are flavorful (salt, spice, and protein portion- they also use the right type of cheese for the tamales de rajas) BUT again the masa texture is a let down. Great service! Friendly, welcoming, informative, patient, and speak clearly. I cannot complain about my total. I’m always willing to pay more at small businesses than at large food chains.

This bakery was a nice put stop. Picked up a tamale, coffee, a chocolate donut and mini concha. Service was fast and the gentleman was helpful and friendly. It is a nice bakery with display cases of their products and open kitchen vibes. The concha had whipped cream and a dollop of cream in the middle. Made it sweeter and fun to eat. The chocolate donut was delicious, but nothing out of the ordinary. I got a Rojas tamale, it was mid, it was too mushy for me, I prefer more of a solid mush if that makes any sense. I would give it a try again if I was in the area.

From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and clearly proud of their craft (as they should be). * Guava and cheese croissant - Flaky, buttery, with just the right balance of tangy guava and creamy cheese. A classic combo done right. * Mexican hot chocolate croissant - Rich and chocolatey with a subtle hit of cinnamon and spice. Not overly sweet, just indulgent enough. * Vanilla concha - Soft, airy, and topped with a delicate shell that actually had flavor (a rare feat). Perfect with coffee or honestly, just on its own. Honestly it is worthy the 41 minute drive.

Bought 2 types of tres leches cakes: Mixed berries and passionfruit/mango. USD $5.50 each. Croissant, $3.50 And other pastries with Mexican names.

My sister told me that there was a new Artisanal bakery in the neighborhood and of course, I had to go see for myself. It is a small cute place with a couple of tables and chairs. This place is very friendly. They offer fresh baked goods (pastries, sourdough breads, etc), hot drinks, and tamales. The person who was helping me answered all my questions and I bought a few pastries and a pork tamale. I bought a vanilla concha (a very soft bread like a brioche with a not to sweet topping). I also got their croissant, banderilla (long flaky pastry brushed with some type of sweet, slightly sticky honey like topping), plus another pastry filled with Dulce de leche (my favorite). Their pork tamale in a red sauce was very tasty and it was not even on my radar until I heard a beeping sound. I watched this person pull out a tray of fresh steamed tamales of course I had to get one. Definitely, a new place that I can add to my go to list.

Masa Madre is a new Mexican Artisnal Bakery in Sunnyside Queens. What a fantastic addition to the neighborhood! They offer a large variety of baked goods, as well as some savory items. There are two tables inside for Dine-in. Masa Madre had great customer service and I felt the warm welcome! Loved the croissant door knob! lol Masa Madre offers a large variety of baked goods as well as some savory items. Their plain Concha ($2.50), was wonderfully light & fluffy, yet deliciously crunchy on the outside. This was my first time having a Concha and I am a new fan! They come in different flavors, and some also have cream fillings! There were so many tempting items at Masa Madre that I couldn't resist ordering additional items. The regular brewed coffee ($3.50) was good. I also ordered an almond croissant ($4.50) and a tres leches dessert ($5.50). Both were phenomenal!! The almond croissant was HUGE!! The Tres Leches dessert was perfection; so satisfying without being too sweet. Looking forward to a return visit! There were so many different items to try. They also have savory dishes as well. I'd like to try their tamales next time! Welcome to the neighborhood, Masa Madre!!

Masa Madre is located on 46th St, off Greenpoint Ave. Metered Street parking if driving; school on the same block so watch out for schooldays street signs. 7 train- 46 St /Bliss St stop; a few bus lines as well. Three tables only indoors. Maybe can be a bit brighter inside. Tried a few things so far. I like their breads. $2.50-4.50. Some looked simple but were tasty/sweet enough as is, shareable, and for me they're very good for coffee time like: Concha and Chocolate concha- sweet spongey breads, which I liked to dip in my coffee; Mexican chocolate croissant; Aguacata - has anise, brown sugar sweetened; Banderilla and pan de queso. Dessert items: Conchitas with vanilla cream - concha with fluffy cream and not too sweet. Mango passionfruit tres leches - soaked just enough so I like the texture; the fruit flavors are in the cream on top. Piedras (The Rock) - shortbread but was dry and a bit hard, like it's name. Mexican hot chocolate ($4) was ready- made. Creamy and cinnamony but too sweet for me. Noticed they have Tamales so got the Green chicken ($3) and Chapin pork ($5). Both meaty, flavorful but chapin was saltier. Asked what Guajolota was- it's tamale inside baguette bread, which I was told is another way tamales are eaten in Mexico. $6. Tortas prices range from $13-$15. Maybe will try these next time. Service was great. I asked a few questions on each visit and the employees were very pleasant and accommodating.

I went to Masa Madre Artisanal Bakery in the afternoon to pick up some yummy Mexican bread. I picked up three chocolate concha's, three Mexican Chocolate Croissants, and one concha with raspberry filling inside. The service was excellent and quick. I took a minute or two to regroup myself and decide what to take home with me. The ambiance is cute with small limited seating inside and some seating outdoors. I have been here one other time beforehand and honestly I loved their Mexican bread. The taste is just superb! 10/10 Mexican bakery

I'm normally skeptical about most bakeries so I only grabbed the items provided to me for the yelp event. I took a bite of each item in the car & then walked right back in to buy something . I tried the concha, the Mexican chocolate croissant and the banderillas. All of them were a 5/5 in my opinion but the banderilla took the cake! All fresh and not dramatically sweet. A perfect breakfast pastry in my opinion. And each were very unique in their own way. Service was great. I was given an explanation of each pastry and a little bit of history. The ambiance was nice; small shop and maybe I'd eat my pastry and sip a coffee there one day if I had time ‍

Never skip the side streets when exploring new areas! Hidden in Woodside is one of the most amazing little neighborhood bakeries with mouthwatering pastries and breads. The owner and staff are very welcoming. Daniel took the time to explain the different offerings since I wasn't familiar with them. Masa Madre offers a variety of breads, pastries and desserts. I purchased several different pastries and they were all so good. The Concha was light, airy and not too sweet with a hint of vanilla and a butter sugar topping. It reminded me of a brioche in away, literally melts in your mouth. The Banderilla was just as delicious with a thin caramelized sugar glaze and its crispy puff texture. The Piedra reminded me of a dense hearty bread. It was filled with raisins, chocolate and had coconut shreds with a glaze on top. You can tell that everything is made daily with how fresh it is. Masa is more of a to-go place especially if you are a few people. There is seating but it is very limited. I am excited to go back and try one of their speciality breads. The customers before me were raving about the sourdough.

Came here for a Yelp event, but couldn't resist getting a few more items on my own. The aroma of freshly baked bread and butter wafted across the room. There was quite the variety of Mexican pastries, both savory and sweet, but do not sleep on their tamales! I ordered the chapin (pork shoulder) and guajillo (chicken) tamale; both stuffed with tender and succulent pieces of their respective protein. The chapin was a little different from the rest as it was wrapped in a banana leaf (much like a Venezuelan hallaca) rather than a corn husk. My mom absolutely loved this one, as it was rather nostalgic for her. The banana leaf made it more fragrant, but the tamale itself also had more volume. I was tempted by the cakes displayed behind the glass, so I also picked out a mango + passion fruit tres leches cake. It was absolutely divine with the perfect amount of sweetness. The cake itself so moist, but also maintained its structural integrity. Thought I would taste the mango/passion fruit in the cake, but it's actually only flavored in the cream topping; still very delicious and well-balanced nonetheless. The menu changes up seasonally, so there's always something new to try, but their tamales itself can easily make you a regular here :)

Masa Madre in Woodside is hands down one of my favorite bakeries. The conchas are absolutely incredible - soft like a brioche with a sugar topping that has just the right amount of crunch. That contrast in texture makes every bite perfect. The quality is unmatched, and the texture is truly phenomenal. Whenever I bring some home to snack on later I put them in the microwave for 10 to 15 seconds and they feel like they're right out of the oven. I love stopping by on the weekends or whenever I get the chance. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, which just adds to the charm of this place. I also have a soft spot for their old-fashioned donuts. They're classic, delicious, and I keep recommending them to everyone I know. They also added tortas to their menu as well. The pierna adobada is so crazy good. I don't think I have the right words to do it justice. If you haven't been yet, you're seriously missing out. This place is a gem! Get there early!

Location: Sunnyside NYC Service: It was great. Ambiance: clean and not loud. It was not as spacious but enough. There is a table outside too. Went there on a pleasant day. Food: ill put a note on the photo. I tried four. Dulce de leche, chocolate concha. Banderilla, chocolate croissant. I chose 3 of my fave. But all tasted so so good. Highly recommend!

I'd heard that Masa Madre is a really interesting little bakery with a super knowledgeable, friendly staff, unique breads and super fresh pastries. So upon learning that they would be open on a Monday (their usually day off) due to Cinco De Mayo, I went to Woodside to check them out. The bakery is cute, sparkling clean, and staffed by people who know how to make some amazing breads and pastries. The air was full of delicious scents, the conches were colorful, and the sourdough loafs looked enticing. It was honestly tough to choose what to try. In the end I walked out with Conchas, a "Mexican style" Piedra, and a Banderilla. I have a feeling that I couldn't have made a bad choice here. Everybody in my family had a different favorite, but really enjoyed tasking everything. Next time I'll try the one of the sourdough loaves too.

I came here for a visit since I heard a lot of positive things and the item that I came here for was just OK but the items that I bought just by the eye test turned out to be really good. The food: Dulce de Leche Buttercake- I thought this was made really well, I really loved the buttercake aspect of this but the dulce de leche part came off too sweet to me, glad they only put a small amount of the dulce de leche. I really enjoyed the buttercake part a lot but if they had like a raspberry version or strawberry, I would be there everyday lol This reminds me of an upscale version of the Pepperidge Farm Verona cookies and I love the Verona cookies. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=e1TVq_6hgfedxRAgtbW7GA Pastel Gloria- Guava and cheese. The one thing I have learned is that guave and cheese makes so much sense. I think the first time I had this combo was from a famous bakery in California called Porto's and it is really an amazing combo. I thought the one here was excellent, the guava was sweet but not over the top and I really enjoyed the bread part of this pastry. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=ajxeXyAZJU_8VCpcoQrJDQ Vanilla Concha- This was the reason I came to the restaurant and while it was fine, it came off kind of boring to me. It really reminded me of a Chinese Bolo Bao. It was nice and airy with a nice crispy top but I think this came off a bit bland to me. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=9LzIgKzRhyMdT6vQY1drpQ

Wanted a concha, and I saw they had tamale, so I made my way over here to try both! I hadn't had an El Chapin tamale before (from my understanding, it is a Guatemalan version of a tamale, where it is filled with pork and wrapped in banana leaf), so I was curious to try it. It had a tender big hunk of meat nestled in the middle of perfectly soft masa, with a slight spice, though it could use more. It was hot and well packaged! I will definitely try out their other tamale. The concha had a great crisp on top balanced by the soft bread! One of the best I've had. The service was very friendly and quick. They are more of a grab and go spot, but had a couple small tables inside. Next time I'm in the area, I will definitely grab things to go!

Who says I'm an Yelp Elite? I am! Today I went here all by myself on a rainy Tuesday morning during my personal day off from work to go to my ninth Yelp Elite Event feeling good. The service there was pleasant and friendly and thanks to the baker Daniel again when I got 3 different kinds of pastries which includes the banderillas, conchas and Mexican chocolate croissant that it tasted sweet and delicious that I only brought the hot chocolate to enjoy it while eating it nice and slowly. I couldn't agree more about it. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :)

Please come here for your pastries if you want to have them with coffee these are excellent! I came here during a yelp event week but ended up also purchasing the dulce de leche and a coffee as well. OMG on the dulce the leche it was amazing - sweetened cornbread that went amazing with my coffee. The chocolate concha I would get over the plain/vanilla. The banderilla was fresh and doughy. Very clean inside - The service was great and had a pleasant conversation with the man behind the counter.

Friendly server who explained the different offerings. Pastries tasted fresh and delicious. Can't wait to try some more things. The special concha with raspberry filing was perfect to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.

The bakery they gave were delicious! There was a bit of wait and place was busy when I went in to pick up. It was a super clean, small spot. My family enjoyed the bakeries and so will definitely head back.

A friend recommended this place to me, and since it's close to where I live I decided to drop by and get a dessert. I got there before they closed for the day so there was some stuff sold out. From their selection, I got the tres leches cake. It was a very moist and flavorful cake. Portion size was alright for the price point. If you want to pay in cash they take out the tax and it's cheaper. I only had a credit card on me so I couldn't get a discount. I'll know for next time! I would like to try their other desserts and pastries.

A few friends had recommended this bakery, so my husband and I had to check it l, out and I'm glad we did! The service was spot on and the ambiance was cute. The baked goods are pretty damn good as well! We ended up getting a Mexican hot chocolate croissant , a pastry with vanilla cream , and a mango tres leches. The baked goods were amazing, the tree leches was good but a little too sweet for us. I would definitely go back to check out some of the other baked good!

Has to be one of the best bakeries I've been to in a very long time. I got two conchas, one slice of corn bread, and their raspberry bar. Their conchas??? Holy crap, maybe the best I've ever had. Soft, warm, absolutely delicious. Their raspberry oatmeal bar was something that scratched an itch -- great raspberry to bar ratio, tart, yet sweet. Their cornbread was what did it for me. Not overbearing on sweetness, a good moist texture where you can taste the corn and it has a small kick of savory flavor. Can't wait to come back and try more!

This is such a cute shop! I wish I would've got there earlier to sit and order a hot chocolate but we got there as they were closing up. The staff men at the front desk were nice and patient even though they were closing. We took the concha and pastry with guava and cheese filling. The concha was so light and fluffy. Next time I come I'll try their torta and hot coco :)

Masa Madre is a dream: I can only speak to their conchitas and conchas which are the perfect blend of crispy exterior and fluffy interior. The menu is curated and lovely. If I lived closer, I would indulge more in the rustic loaves and baguettes. The selection is beyond tempting for all pastry lovers. The pastries are expertly crafted in an open kitchen which I always view as a sign that the chefs have both integrity and openness. The staff are warm and sweet, much like the pastries and breads they hand to you. I wish I were local so I could make this my neighborhood bakery. It's that good. There is limited seating, cafe style, within right next to the front window and a few outdoor cafe seats as well. Parking is primarily street and well, New York, so take the train or walk.

Really good and decent priced bakery at Sunnyside. Also got the mango tres leches which was really delicious - not too sweet - it was just right. Will definitely be buying more here. A bit bummed out they were out of their churros but that just means I have to come back again soon.

Believe the hype! EVERYTHING at this bakery is delicious, with top quality ingredients, top quality technique, competitive pricing, and kind knowledgeable staff. My Queens Foodie FB Group brought my attention to this Mexican (+ french, central american) bakery. This is the 3rd business for the owner, who runs De Mole Restaurant in Sunnyside & Williamsburg; and apparently did years of R & D for this "passion project." I think they've also sold at the Sunnyside Greenmarket and have participated in Queens restaurant week pop-ups and other initiatives; great for them they opened a brick & mortar (October 2024). Looks like the news outlets love them - well deserved! $2.50 AGUACATE! Just get it. Had no idea what it was but a the food group mentioned it. It's a cross between a bread / a soft cookie / soft pita shape; with bits of piloncillo (brown cane sugar) in it - some oozing out during baking and caramelizing with crisp spots! I couldn't stop going back for more bites. The CONCHAS. Now I believe the hype! A simple brioche bun in concept; but this was SO pillowy and light, with light sweetness from the vanilla "cookie" topping. Also amazed about this engineering feat of the topping melting onto the bun. It doesn't crumble off into messy pieces!! Unlike other conchas that I've had (mostly from the supermarket or street vendors). This is Artisanal! Everyday elevated items - maybe WHAT the item should actually taste like. The 3rd item that I got was the Dulce de Leche Almond Cruffin (they call it a Croissant). The exterior was crispy shattering, the laminated dough was buttery and dense. The Dulce de Leche was sweet, but not overpowering and very thick. I wonder if it's homemade, there wasn't any other almond ingredient in the croissant, but assuming that it was just the almond topping. There was also an Apricot Almond Cruffin, will have to try it next time. What kind of butter/lard do they use in their baked goods?! Each one had a distinct texture and crumb; it was great trying bites from these 3 very different items, executed so expertly. $9.75 (cash %) for my 3 items. Apparently, their Coffee is wood smoked, their Mexican Hot Chocolate Croissant is the chocolate topping from the Chocolate Conchas, rolled in with the croissant. Their regular Croissant was reviewed one of the best in the NY Times. And their breads are from a sourdough starter that the Chef has been working on for the past 3 years; learning the recipe from his wife, Guatemalan mother. They also sell tamales, with a Guatemalan version, after 11 AM. The shop is located in the more residential area, with a high school on the north side of the block. It's about a 5-8 minute walk from the 7 subway station. There's only two small round tables at the front of the shop, so wouldn't recommend dining in, or bringing large groups. There's a good amount of space to lineup and it sounds like their weekends have been very busy, selling out early. Love their façade, and simple, charming space, with a chandelier made of Mexican, hot chocolate mixers. The case of amazing items are the true stars here. Five stars for the croissant door handle too!

I really enjoyed the treats here. I tried the Vanilla Concha and the Chocolate Donut and both were delicious. I could tell that they were fresh. Nothing was overly sweet and had great flavor.

Welcome to Woodside! One item to note, they are closed on Mondays. Open 7AM-6PM (until sold out) on Tuesday- Sundays. Warm welcome by the employee. They have 14 bread items. They sell the tamales and bread until it's sold out for the day. I asked the employee what a conchas. It's a sweet bread brioche with a top that looks like a Chinese pineapple bun (but it's not). Decided I want to try that, heard about the cornbread so had to try that, and almond croissant. I was debating about the pan de la abuela though I think it would have been a bit too much bread for me. Think I went a little overboard as it is. The 2 tables blocked the counter display that was facing the window. I was putting away my goodies when I noticed the bread pudding and butter cake fruit on that side. Oh, well will try next time.

Had no intention of coming to this incredible bakery just happened to walk by and I am so glad I entered. Everything looked amazing, but I had to settle down and sadly choose only a few items. I chose the vanilla concha, a dulce de leche butter cake and a tamale. All items were fresh and perfectly baked/cooked. Tamales can be pretty dense and dry at times, but this one was light and fluffy. The guy behind the counter was patient, attentive and gave excellent recs. It's pretty tiny inside with only a few tables. It's pretty mych a counter service and go type of establishment. This place is most certainly going to play on repeat in my mind until I go back again.

One of my favorite finds of 2024, masa madre is bringing Sunnyside high-quality artisanal baked goods that'll keep you coming back for more and more. We got a few things, including their corn bread, dulce de leche ?cookie and their concha (vanilla). Their concha was the best I've ever had - light, fluffy, fresh with a delicate crumble on top. I could go back for 3 of these in a row. Delicious. The dulce de leche was delicious, too, with a really great texture and crumb to the cake/biscuit outside, with a nice, sweet, but not too much, dulce running in the middle. Well balanced especially for an ingredient that is typically too sweet for my liking. The cornbread was great, too, and I've always said that if a place does something basic really well, it's a good sign about the rest of their items. Will want to return for their tamales and croissants!

It is the best Bakery Ive ever been to in NYC. Every baked good, drink, and food was 10 star. This is Mitchlin Star good and I said what I said and mean it. The Baker and owner has been working for over 30 years Worldwide. The restaurant is only opened in October of 2024. They blend Latin & European desserts, baked goods and food. The Rochelle Hose is outrageous and the sourdough bread and almond croissant, and pan dulce. Order all of the tamales. (Mexican and Guatemalan) and the stuffed Concha was delicious.

After hearing a lot of positive chatter, I had to check out this new local bakery. Located in the middle of the block, Mass Madre is a quaint little spot. Beautiful, fresh pasties are displayed and there are 2 small tables to sit down. The baked goods range from breads to croissants to traditional Mexican sweet breads to brownies. It is hard to decide which to get. The almond croissant is a stand out all star. It was heavy! Delicious, flavorful, fresh- quite a nice treat. Additionally there are tamales offered daily. The coffee is very good- available iced or hot. Prices are very reasonable!

For many years the conchas you would find in New York were "utilitarian," for lack of a better word. It's only recently that more artisan Mexican bakers have started to establish themselves in the city, resulting in more tender soft interiors that pair well with the crunchy top. Ironically, or perhaps not ironically, these remind me more of the "masaiga-bau" (Mexican buns) that have been commonplace in Chinatown's bakeries this whole time.

GREAT BAKERY IN QUEENS! Their baked goods were delicious and affordable. Their tamales were some of the best I've ever had. The inside is a bit small so it is definitely a place to grab and go. The workers inside were so kind and gave my group plates and utensils so that we could eat our food in a small table inside. I definitely want to come back and try more of their goods!

Fresh and delicious conchas. Do not sleep on the tamales!! Very affordable and the space is clean, warm and welcoming. Why isn't this place viral?

Everything here is delicious. This is THE bakery, you won't regret anything you purchase, and I promise you'll come back.

Such a quaint, phenomenal quality bakery! Stopped by in the morning to grab a pastry, and was filled with so many wonderful options. I tried the cornbread, which was somehow both dense and moist, and was so buttery and delicious! I am so excited try their other baked goods as well.

Masa Madre is a GEM, and I would recommend this bakery to everyone. My fiancé and I asked Chef Jose Luis Flores to create a special engagement cake for us and we could not be happier. Chef Jose Luis did the most spectacular job, creating such a beautiful cake for us to share with our closest friends! The cake was delicious, flavorful, unique, and artistic. We could not be happier with this experience. I had especially asked to have figs on the cake, and even though Chef Jose Luis mentioned that figs are out of season, he went to the end of the earth to find figs for our special day Thank you Chef! We also hosted our party at De Mole, a sister restaurant of Masa Madre, and the whole experience was divine. We have nothing but fantastic things to say! Thank you for making us feel warm and special - we love the Masa Madre and De Mole team! We will be lifelong customers

The staff is super friendly. They were really patient with me while I decided on what to order. I ordered a bunch of pastry because as soon as you walked in, it smelled so delicious. I couldn't refuse. I really like their concha, both vanilla and dark chocolate, it's super soft and fluffy inside. Their cheese bread and almonds croissant is also really good. The Mexican hot chocolate was also really tasty. The place is kept clean with seating just for a few.

very authentic Mexican pastries...everything tastes fresh..workers are very nice and helpful

I got a test of the Rosca de Reyes! sorry but not good at al!!l i was spectating such a great bread but definitely worst i ever try! is very heavy ant the cookie dough in the top to much baking soda after test this is definitely not a Mexican Rosca De Reyes ! and he said he use a natural leavening in the breads! is not true I don't like when people try to sell something that is not and many people doesn't know because they never try before a Mexican bread and bread with natural leavening! I recommend go to a Mexican bakery if you want Mexican bread and go to french bakeries if you want a croissant

Truly Phenomenal bakes. Their tres leches is one of the best in town. And the conchas..out if this world

Absolutely amazing croissants - probably the best I've ever had. Looking forward to trying the bakery's other wares!

This establishment is extraordinary. The pastries, the bread and the doughnuts are incredible. There is no dining area so it is take out only. Staff is helpful and very friendly. Menu rotates daily. Croissants are the best in NYC
