Pecoshitas

came here around 7pm and the line was LONG (for good reason)! their pan de queso and pan de bono came out on piping hot trays from the kitchen. people were buying bags and bags of baked goods to enjoy on the spot and bring home. this place is well-priced with some great coffee & desserts! they have a large seating area and a clean bathroom. will be back again!

ALL THE BREAD is made FRESH DAILY. The COFFEE is FRESHLY GROUND infront of you and served to your desire. The ladies are all very delightful and respectful, with great attitudes even when its as busy as a train station on rush hour... they get that line of customers moving.. their desserts are well authentically made and delicious... this is a great coffee shop to visit... i go here atleast once a week... its a must while in the area... ICED COFFEE is exquisite

The arepa con queso with my cafecito was so good! Service was quick, efficient, and the worker that took my order even let me practice my Spanish :). There are plenty of seats inside as well! I got both of these for $3.75. Can’t beat that!

this is what I got when I asked for a fresh. She said everything is fresh here you judge for yourself.

Good , clean, variety of pastries 🍰 , bread, good coffee ☕️ also have empanadas, chicharrón, you can eat in or take out.

I’m a frequent customer, so is my mom. My mom bought a dedo de queso this time and a loaf of bread with cheese in it thinking it’s going to be tasty like always. It looked crispy on the outside, but completely raw dough in the inside. Usually the cheese is always tasty. What a big downer. Waste of money. I question whether I should even buy bread here again now.

This places is authentic!!!! Perfect customer service!! Everything clean and the empanadas and pandebonos are always fresh!!!!

I've only gotten the pan de bono and empanadas but want to come back to try more. The line gets long so perhaps visiting during off peak hours is better. Staff is friendly whenever I've gone.

My first time coming to this establishment and it definitely won't be my last. Nice establishment they a sitting area, very clean the employees are friendly. There was a line when I entered but it moved quickly and gave to time to decide what I wanted to purchase. They have a variety of pastries, breads and cakes. I purchased the cheese bread and empanadas de carne and pastel de pollo chicken. Everything was good fresh, taste good worth the drive.

Pecoshitas is a Columbian Bakery not to be missed. Located on the corner of 80th Street and Roosevelt Avenue which is a two block from the 82nd Street subway station on the 7 line. Family members have been going to Pecoshitas for their pastries and cakes. All time favorite is the Pastel Gloria. Puff pastry with Guava and Dulce de Leche. Flakey pastry make sure you got a napkin with you. With one bite you get the combo richness of the Guava with the Dulce de Leche. We get 4 of them cause they are so delicious. The beef empanadas are good and great for snack or lunch. The slices of cakes tried and delicious -Tiramisu- they go fast -Cheesecake -Postre Maracuya -Tres Leches -Red Velvet Not to mention -Cheese Danish- Blueberry, Almond too -Almojabana- Cheese bread Yes, once you walk in there will be a line which moves for there are 4+ ladies at the counter to assist. Friendly staff and very helpful with your selections. It got so overwhelming for there were so many different Columbian pastries. Daniella one of the staff guided me through the dessert items. Almost got Roscon- Guava Bread. Got so much sweets and dessert. There is an area where you can sit and enjoy your treats and goodies. As you enter store after opening two heavy doors, you are greeted with the smell of coffee aromas and baked breads. Ambiance is warm and inviting decor. Will be back soon.

Pechositas is a very large and clean Colombian bakery in Jackson Heights that I wish I lived closer to. My friend, sister and I went there and had some cafe con leche (tasted like Cafe Bostelo tbh), pan de bono, and a jugo de maracuya con agua. Everything was great- the passion fruit juice particularly stood out to me. I would definitely go back to try some passion fruit desserts.

Ate here today on a warm Sunday afternoon while walking around the neighborhood. I had brought and ate the cheese and chicken empanadas and a slice of tres les leches that it had super good and delicious. The service there was also attentive and friendly that I didn't feel rushed about what to choose and eat. I couldn't agree more. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :)

A friend told me about this place and it did not disappoint. Great empanadas and service! The place is spacious and has space for you to sit. Can't wait to come back and try some more things. There is a little bit of a language barrier but some speak English.

mal servicio no lo recomiendo son muy groseras las chicas, presencie como trataban a una chica

I love it here. My family has been coming here for years! Everything from the empanadas to the buñuelos or even all the pastries are amazing. Our go to order also includes the large pan de queso which is super cheesy soft buttery loaf of bread. The service line is quick moving although sometimes long and out the door. The space is tight but nothing compared to years ago before they expanded they now have little tables to sit and enjoy your coffee and snacks. Highly recommend going earlier in the day to avoid the rush of people when work gets out!

I have never went to a Colombian bakery or tried any of the bakery goods before. I was surprised how super delicious everything we got were! This place is a gem & I wish we had one like this in Brooklyn. We ordered: chicken empanada, beef empanada, pan de bono, pan de choclo. Chicken empanada - WOW! I have never had Colombian empanadas before so this was super amazing! The outside was not your typical empanada type. It was super crunchy on the outside and reminded me of an arepa. Inside was some potato chicken conction & it was very savory and delicious! I would reorder this again! Beef empanada - Soooooo delicious! I am use to eating Dominican/Puerto Rican empanadas, so this one surprised me a lot. It was so crunchy on the outside (reminds me of an arepa) and super savory on the inside (potato with beef concoction). Wow! I would reorder this again! The sauce (some pinkish sauce & a spicy sauce) they give you to eat with it made it taste even better! Pan de bono - Wow! Super delicious and cheesey! I took it home and airfried it. It was so crispy on the outside with gooey cheese on the inside. Super savory and delicious! It reminds me of the brazillian pao de quejia, but better! I would reorder this again! Pan de choclo - This reminds me of a sweet and savory arepa & a tasted like a corn bread. It was delicious! Highly recommend their empanadas & pan de bono! Will try their other food items next time!

la atencion es horrible te atienden super grosera si tu les haces una pregunta sobre el producto son super groseras

I have mixed reviews about this place. There was a long line (I'm talking 15-20 people), so I waited about 25 min. for my turn. The bread and pastries I eventually got were fresh and delicious. Unfortunately I didn't witness any staff cleaning the tables despite the heavy customer influx--but that didn't stop customers from coming in and sitting non-stop as others left. And here's an important tip: pay attention when you pay--there's one cashier who has a knack for shortchanging you (as in giving you back $10 when she should have given you back $40). Check your change and your receipt before putting everything away.

I stumbled by Pecoshitas by pure accident. I was walking around, saw it had a massive line, and thought to myself, it has to be good. I came in and got one pork and one beef empanada. Honestly, I couldn't really tell the difference between the two meats when I ate them. However, the pastry was amazing. It was light and flavorful. There was a lot of filling inside. It was my first time having a Colombian empanada, and I can definitively say, it's my favorite kind of empanada. The price is amazing. It was only $3.75 for two empanadas. You can definitely have a meal here and be full without feeling like you've spent too much.

This place always caught my attention by their unique name. I finally made my way here and I was super shocked by the long line for a bakery. Especially since there are so many Colombian bakeries in the area. Well after making the line I got a few items and took them home to try them. I have to say as a Colombian I was really impressed but how good everything was. Everything tasted like back at home and I will be coming back.

The service is friendly! The staff speaks both Spanish and English. I walked in a deep downpour to order my favorite snack ever at a Colombian bakery...you guessed it: empanadas! I ordered two beef(carne) and two pork (chicharron)! The outside shell on each them were made of crispy corn shell and is fried to crispy goodness. I love it. I highly recommend you stop by and try their baked goods and empanadas. So yummy!

Gracias Pecoshitas Bakery por crear una obra de Arte deliciosa para nuestra graduacíon de FolkCOLOMBIA Escuela 2023! Jorge es un panadero extraordinario!

The best pan de bono , we were able to get the ones right out of the oven and it was packed with cheese and fluffy. There was a line but the ladies expedited it quickly. Will definitely be back to try their other pastries.

The best pan de bono, buñuelos, and chicharron. Lines can be long, so we order ahead and they have it ready when we get there. Parking is a nightmare, so have someone double park, like everyone else in Jackson Heights. Staff is so friendly. The place is cute, decorated like a local cafe.

Always very busy. They have fresh baked goods and confections. My favorites are the pastel de pollo which is a chicken empanada in a corn shell. Their dedito de queso is a slightly sweet bread that's crunchy on the outside and full of mozzarella cheese! So delicious it's another go to

The lines are a little long. The environment is nice and cozy. The food is also very good. It is a bakery I would recommend.

these guys need an English speaking employee. a woman who picked up my call at 1:14 PM on saturday 10/21/23 clearly could not speak English and was unwilling to get someone else to help, so she decided that hanging up on me was her best option. I simply called and asked "do you guys do gender reveal cakes?" she said "what?" I said "gender reveal cakes?" and moments later she just hung up. I called about 6x after that but they let the phone ring without anyone picking up, until the phone disconnected on it's own. I hope the owner knows that their employees are driving customers away by hanging up on them and refusing to pick up the phone because they cant understand basic English.

Loved the pastries here. Finally.... I found a bakery that sells traditional yucca bread. I love yucca bread but most bakeries in Jackson Heights no longer make it for some reason or they sell out really early in the morning??? We only got 3 but seriously I would've ordered the whole basket if I could. It was so crispy on the outside. Luckily I didn't crack a tooth.. so tasty.. my mom even tried a piece but she couldn't have more, she liked it too! We also got pan de bono, Coco bread, arepas de queso .. one with choclo which was amazing.... Instead of dinner we ate yummy bread with some coffee instead. I reheated the arepas in a pan and it was crispy on the outside and soft and chewy in the inside. I made a big cup of Colombian coffee with a spoon of condensed milk and 2 tbs of TJ's coffee ice cream and it was so good. Seriously the best arepa de choclo I've had. How did I not notice this bakery before? The arepa de queso had a strong cheese flavor which is a plus if you love cheese but I do not. L also ordered one borracho which made all the ladies smile, I mean I guess it's kinda funny. It was just okay. I prefer the pastries $16 for everything, not bad at all... I've spend $8 on a loaf of bread at WFs. Great service too. Much cleaner than other bakeries in the area. Will be back! We went again just yesterday night and omg the place was packed..... there was a line out the door. They sold out of pan de yuca while I was in the middle of the line. I was quite sad so I had to get something else. This time we tried some empanadas and this thing big thing that had potatoes inside. Also got a blood sausage and a chorizo. They were still making pastries fresh at night. Wow. They were amazing. I've had lots of empanadas in Jackson Heights, living there for years... where have these empanadas been all that time. The outside was so crispy, the inside was so soft and flavorful, I didn't need their hot sauce.. so good. I bought 6 arepas de choclo. Lots of people were buying coffee or hot chocolate with their pastries. They have a separate area to dine in. L was going to order a hot chocolate but I noticed it was just Swiss Miss near the coffee station which I do not drink. L thought it was fresh melted chocolate mixed with boiling milk since that's how I make it at home. So no beverages, we ate the fresh empanadas outside as we walked to our next destination...

Everything is in Spanish here so I had to people watch for a bit to figure out how to go about ordering something. There's a lot of baked goods here. Some have signs and some don't so I guess either know how to speak Spanish or have someone who goes here bring you along? After walking from the savory buns to the sweet cakes, I settled on a tres leches cake because the liquid at the bottom of the box piqued my interest. They package it in a plastic bag just in case it leaks which was awesome. It's very sweet but it was so good! I think for the portion, it's definitely shareable between two people.

I paid for a big cheese bread, only a quarter had cheese. Very disappointed. won't be shopping here in a while

Wow my first time here and totally blown away by the size & superb quality & amazing price of the sweets and selection of Tapas and pork belly. The space is gigantic clean and with a bathroom. I've been in Jackson heights for 18 years and how did I only discovered this gem just today? I will be returning often here. I love it.

Honestly, I just ducked into Pecoshitas to use the bathroom and felt bad that I wasn't going to buy anything. That was until I looked inside the pastry cases and saw the most delightful treats. All the labels are in Spanish and the ladies behind counter, who are incredibly friendly, also mostly speak Spanish. Good thing I've remembered most of my Spanish from school. I ordered a Pan de Queso [$1.35] which is a bagel shaped bread, speckled throughout, with what may be an Edam or some other soft cheese. The pan de queso was delightful, slightly sweet and just a bit salty. The dough was soft but crisp along the edges. The next time I'm in Jackson Heights, I have to come back and sample more breads and pastries! Too bad my boyfriend is moving from the neighborhood soon :( [No photo, I was ravenously hungry too]

I got a buñuelo and a couple empanadas de carne which was good. Hot sauce was HOT, but good! Muy bien!

Friendly service, affordable prices, and they have delicious food! Ambiance is usually busy. My favorite bakery to go to! My favorite cake is Maria Luisa!

Best natilla I ever had !!! This sweet treat is traditionally served alongside fried Buñuelos at Christmas time.

Delicious! If you're in Jackson Heights, do yourself a favor and pop in for a cappuccino and a sweet treat! I stopped in for a quick snack, and I'm glad I did. A cappuccino, pan leche con queso and plain donut, all for $6.75. The store is very clean, the counter girls very helpful and food delicious and reasonably priced. Thank you!

It does not matter if they serve great food if their service is HORRENDOUS. The girl (she def couldn't of been a woman because she needs some maturing) told my aunt "I NEED TO GO EAT AND CAN'T HELP YOU AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT YOU CAN LEAVE"... she did just that just left her waiting until someone asked what she would like. They have a tasty avena and good bakery items but with rude service like this it may be worth going to one of the many other Colombian bakeries in the area. No importa si sirven buenas cosas si su servicio es DE LO PEOR. La niña (que definitivamente no podía ser una mujer porque necesita madurar) le dijo a mi tía: "NECESITO IR A COMER Y NO LE PUEDO AYUDAR Y SI NO LE GUSTA, PUEDES IRSE" ... asi mismo lo hizo, se fue y la dejó esperando hasta que alguien le preguntara qué le gustaría. Tienen una avena sabrosa y buenos artículos de panadería, pero con un servicio grosero como este sale muchísimo mejor ir a una de las muchas otras panaderías colombianas en el área.

Definitely the best spot in this neighborhood for pan de Bono and pan de queso (I've visited most of the other Colombian bakeries here and this is definitely the best). Coffee is also very good, and never burnt. The women who work here are mostly Spanish speaking but you can get by even if you don't speak Spanish. Would recommend!

Great Pan de coco, and dedos de queso. The coffees good, and so are the arepas. Quick service is plus.

After dinner with the family my daughter has to have dessert, of the many bakeries in Roosevelt Ave, we were in mood for actual dessert and not like the typical cholados or jello with fruit. This bakery is really nice, very inviting and everything looks new a s clean. They have lots of typical deserts available like flan, trees leches, cheesecake etc. They also have savoury pastries like empanadas. Really good. This Bakery makes everything fresh in the premises, you can see the staff making bread in the back, baked fresh everyday. I recommend this bakery. I especially recommend the empanadas and arroz con leche.

Empanadas are EXCELLENT. Colombian corn empanadas are amazing. Especially the chicken and ground beef ones. The hot sauce is also great. Bakery or not - this place is bomb.

This place opened up about a month or so ago, and business is really starting to pick up. It's first and foremost a bakery, but also does hot sandwiches (think egg and chorizo on fresh enriched bread) and fresh juices (orange and the like, see photo). I saw an espresso machine, brew coffee and a small selection of teas. Various cakes and jelly rolls, and obviously to have true Latino status, flan and tres leches. You can also buy loaves of bread here to make sandwiches. Their plainest one is great for chicken salad and other lunch meats. My absolute favorite is the pan de bono (but I freaking love pan de bono). Good size, costing a buck each. These freeze well, so the bf and I bought a bunch to keep in the freezer. Scooping out the innards and mixing that with some eggs and milk and cheese veggies and restuffing the shells also makes a killer brunch dish, but that's not the point!!! The point is, the interior is cute, service is friendly and prompt, there are bathrooms and a seating area and it's a good, bright and clean addition to the Roosevelt usual. (Much better than roosevelt diner!!)

I loved it! Good food, clean and organized place, and good service. If you want to have a coffee and eat something yummy and colombian this is a good choice. As long as they keep a good service going the place will be just fine.

I go here all the time! The bunuelos and pan de bono are great! I have gotten them stale once or twice, TIP: ASK THEM WHEN THEIR NEXT FRESH BATCH IS COMING. Usually it's a 20-30 min wait, but its worth it. You can tell them you want them hot from the back and are willing to wait. It's not worth getting the pandebono and bunuelos when there are half left, they become stale. The coffee here is okay, it's a bit bitter than other Colombian places. I've had better cafe con leche. Super cozy place to sit here for an hour or so!

The pastries and empanadas sell like pancakes. Everything is fresh. There's a lot of people coming and going. I heart.

They have really good cakes and breads The cheesy buns are really good! Also the cakes are so delish!! There's one in particular I really really like - the passionfruit mousse! One of the cashiers recommended it And I'm so Glad she did!!

THE BEST PLACE EVER!!!! I am very picky eater and so finding a place that I like is extremely hard. Me and my husband came in to eat breakfast, after a friend of mine recommended this place to me. And let me tell you how amazing this place was!!! We each got a buñuelo and an empanada, I got a coffee and my husband got an orange juice, and everything tasted sooo fresh!!!! By far the best place ever!!!! Quick service too and everyone is extremely nice in here!!! You won't regret coming in here..

Had dinner at a nearby place and came to Pecoshitas for a coffee and some Colombian baked bread and empandas. The place itself is very welcoming and there is enough seating to accommodate about 15 people. The service was good and the food delicious. I would definitely come back.

I really wanted to love this place as it is always packed during the day, but the food was mediocre at best. We got a fruit tart and a brownie cheesecake. Both of them were not amazing. The tart crust was so bland that the blandness overpowered the tartness of the filling and fruits. The cheesecake was dense the way I like my cheesecakes, but sadly very bland, plain, and boring. We came a few minutes before closing and were looking for a nice place to eat and chat over desserts. The staff told us we could bring our desserts over to Cositas Ricas to eat. Yup, the CR staff was nice about it. I love Jackson Heights and its close-knit communities. TWO stars for food. FOUR for service and clean, modern interior.

Excellent local bakery/cafe with super nice staff, clean and fresh decor, and amazing food and drink. While walking around Jackson Heights, we decided to stop in for a coffee. Mind you, everything here is in Spanish, but folks are really friendly (staff and the customers). It seems like a place where they get a lot of repeat customers and have developed a nice foothold in this neighborhood. The lady behind the counter took the time to help explain the goods to me and gave me recommendations. You walk in and along the entire left side is the bakery with sweets and other Spanish bites, such as arepas. I got Pan de Queso - essentially and circle of dough with some cheese inside. The dough was extremely tasty and had subtle hints of sweetness and saltiness to it, with the perfect amount of cheese inside. They have this hot sauce in small containers in the back so I took one to dip it in, and it was some of the best hot sauce I've ever had - FANTASTIC. I got a medium coffee and it was all under $3, a steal. It's a bright cheery restaurant and I can see why it consistently stays packed. Definitely swing by for a coffee or juice and a snack when you're around the area! I wanted to eat all the baked goods they had, but I'll have to come back and try something new.

This is a new bakery that opened up in Jackson Heights. It's actually an offshoot cafe from Cositas Ricas (7919 Roosevelt Ave), since they opted to move the bakery out of that restaurant and use that space for more tables (a good move since it can get crowded). You can't get baked goods there anymore, so that's why they made this cafe. It's a nicely decorated cafe, but it's a bit small and some spaces can appear cramped. Either way, it's the same excellent bakery that was in Cositas Ricas. While the breads are awesome, I tend to stay away from the cakes since they're of lesser quality and there are better bakeries for that. Me and my Brazilian girlfriend (her first time) enjoyed it! P.S.: They don't accept credit cards yet. They just moved in literally a week ago.

The best cakes are here !! I've had my kid's birthday cakes made in this location and they are simply out of this world. The "3 Leches" in particular is my favorite, but "Torta Negra" is great too. You won't go wrong by getting your cake in this place. Other than that, the bakery is the same as many others in the area ...

Came here Friday night after finding out that Cositas Ricas no longer runs the pastry end of their cafe. How disappointing. The mgr turned us toward the brand new bakery Pecoshitas which by far is no comparison. No match whatsoever. Tres Leches was bland and disappointing. I bought Pan de Bono for my friends who raved about them but then again they were virgins to Colombian fare.

This small and cozy cafe offers products of great quality, excellent service and very clean. I like their decoration and the best "tres leches" dessert I have had in New York city is found here. Great job! PS: Only 1 problem I find, Why don't they answer their phone number? I was trying to find out if they deliver; I tried every phone number I found in Google without luck. This is very important.

How is this place not rated higher? First of all, the service is quick and friendly, even though you might need to know un poco spanish. The maracuya mousse is simply amazing here, so good it should be illegal! I also loved the arequipe donuts, which were one of the best donuts I've ever tasted. I found a few Colombian bakeries are usually greedy when it comes to arequipe, but this bakery really doesn't skimp on it. I also got an awesome large iced coffee which I loved. All of that came to five dollars which is hard to believe. In Starbucks you get coffee the size of a sippy cup for five bucks, here you get an entire damn feast. Pfft, who even needs Starbucks when you got this place around? If you're on Roosevelt and need a quick cafe, no better option than this

Awful service and I also found a hair inside my pastry. It's a shame because the place itself is cool and modern.

Very nice looking latin bakery. Clean and bright, with a nice amount of seating. 1st visit-Did this right when they opened. Got a doughnut, bread pudding and flan. Everything was amazing. Super fresh. Doughnuts some of the best I've ever had. Would give it four or five stars based off of this visit. 2nd visit-One week later. Got three doughnuts, red velvet slice and a tiramisu slice. Of the five things ordered, two of them had that amazing taste and freshness, while three of the items were hard and stale! Nothing that disappoints more than a good bakery keeping their goods past their prime. I hope they fix this, because when it's fresh it's great.
