Smør Bakery

I like this place a lot. Tasty. Clean. Quick. Friendly. The cardamom buns rival La Cabra without the long wait. Breakfast sandwiches are tasty and leave you feeling healthyish after (rare for a BEC). The buns they use are the star. Happy to have this spot in the neighborhood. Much chiller alternative to Win Son which gets crazzzzy on the weekend.

Such a great addition to the neighborhood! Have been 10+ times since their opening and never had a bad experience The cinnamon and cardamom buns are both so delish and the breakfast burrito is one of my favorites in Brooklyn now. The staff is super friendly!

Smør Bakery has just expanded to williamsburg and i am so happy. williamsburg is packed with new cafes and brunch vibe, all of them i believe are small businesses 🤍 i tried AEC sandwich ($13) and hot chocolate with earl grey syrup ($7) 🍫 AEC stands for avocado, egg, and cheddar 🧀 the bread is super soft with chipotle aioli that adds the right amount of flavor. i have been obsessed with early grey or london fog syrup lately. this hot chocolate will be my new obsession 🤍 the early grey is really fragrant and refreshing. they have 6 small tables with tons of natural light and a bench right outside. it was packed on saturday morning but seats become available right after i ordered ✨ their location in the east village is a bit bigger than here. there is no wifi or restroom.

If you’re into williamsburg performative males, you’ll love it here 🙂 Jokes aside, it’s a good shop. I wish there were prices for the pastries up front. I wouldn’t have paid $7.50 for a hot dog roll if I knew it was that much. It was good though. Cardamom bun was good too. I think it was the same price.

I’ve been coming to Smors Bakery for a while now and unfortunately, the food doesn’t seem to be living up to its previous standards. The burritos used to be large and generously filled, but that hasn’t been the case lately. The portions feel smaller, and the bacon isn’t cooked as well as it used to be. Overall, it’s disappointing to see the quality decline compared to how it was before.

EDIT: Sebastian from Smor wrote a super thoughtful response so updating my review to five stars! - do not go on a sunny day - boiling inside, sort of like a greenhouse - they need to install shades or at least keep the door open - made worse given how cramped it is - 45 mins wait for a 2 scrambled eggs, quoted 15 minute wait - everyone complaining about heat/wait - cardamom bun was great, better than fabrique etc - ordered for here but was given what's pictured

Great addition to the neighborhood! Me & my friend shared the cheesy eggs with avocado, cardamom bun and donut. The food was delicious and thank god they have green hot sauce. Tables are a bit too tiny to have a full spread but the space is cute. Also, laptop friendly!

I absolutely love Smør Williamsburg. This bakery is uber cool and the pastry selection is incredible. Walking in feels like stepping into Copenhagen. It is undoubtedly one of the top bakeries in New York. You have to try the cardamom buns. You simply cannot go wrong. Their rye bread and sourdough are also top notch, authentic, and deeply satisfying. The service is always excellent. The team is friendly and welcoming, even when they are busy, which they often are. Despite the rush, they are consistently smiling and attentive. Last but not least, the coffee is outstanding. The baristas are highly skilled and clearly take pride in what they do. Smør Williamsburg delivers the full experience: atmosphere, quality, and craftsmanship. A true gem in New York.
