Somedays Bakery - Bayside

I’ve been to the LIC location before but this was my first time at the Bayside location. I went at around 5:30 PM, but they still had a good amount of selections available. The owner greeted me and was very kind and welcoming. I was hoping they had the blueberry bun but they didn’t have it. I got the spinach and ricotta swirled pastry, chocolate chunk cookie, and the beauty cake (lemon curd and blueberry cream or ganache). The owner also offered me the potato and onion focaccia to try on the house, which was so kind of him! The only thing I didn’t get a picture of was the chocolate chunk cookie; I shared that with my kids in the car and it was a solid cookie. The potato and onion focaccia actually happened to be my favorite of what I got, but their croissants that I’ve tried before as well as the spinach and ricotta pastry are also very good. The lamination on the croissants is excellent! Overall, great place for pastries. They need to open a location on Long Island!

I had a mixed but overall pleasant experience at Somedays Bakery in Bayside. The Black Sesame Tahini Pain Au Chocolat really stood out to me. There’s only a small amount of chocolate inside, so it doesn’t overpower the pastry, and the black sesame and tahini flavors come through beautifully. Tahini, made from ground sesame seeds, adds a rich, slightly nutty depth. The pastry wasn’t overly sweet and had a very unique, well-balanced flavor that I truly enjoyed. The Honeynut Cheesecake Danish, however, was a bit too sweet for my personal taste. The chocolate flavor was quite strong, so the cheesecake and honeynut notes were harder for me to notice. It may still be enjoyable for those who prefer sweeter desserts, just not my preference. Overall, Somedays Bakery offers some very creative and high-quality pastries. I would definitely come back for the black sesame item and to try more of their other flavors.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review for Somedays Bakery We stopped by here last Saturday while heading back to Long Island after spending the day in Queens, and we’re so glad we did. This café is super cute, and we really enjoyed their pastries. They have a great mix of sweet and savory options, and everything we tried was delicious. The staff was friendly and the service was good, which made the stop even better. If you’re near Bayside, this spot is definitely worth checking out. We loved their pastries and would happily come back again. 🥐✨

TLDR: Bayside gets another solid baked goods purveyor. The tahini croissant and presently the Basque cheesecake are bonkers. I'd heard about Somedays Bakery for awhile but never got around to it until they opened in Bayside. There's already French and Martha's but a good addition is always welcome. It's small inside but very clean and nice, reminds you of French Workshop but smaller. Pastry-wise, I liked what I've tried here so far. The pistachio Basque burnt cheesecake ATM is my favorite. The top is so delicate but the middle is incredibly creamy - as it should be. Most recently also tried the chocolate tahini croissant, the cookies and all were very good. Nice to be able to switch up from the usual French/Martha's combos. They do have some savory items that I'd like to try one day if I'm around during lunch time.

Nice cafe style bakery, offering pastries, cookies, sandwiches and coffee. Opens late! Closes at 9pm most days. The dessert selection is huge and a lot of variety, think Peach Tahini patry, Black Sesame croissant, the Beast cake (like eight layers of chocolate goodness), and lox sandwiches, ie. Coffee, cortado, espresso too. Small dining area in the back and outdoor seating available under the covered facade.

Best bakery and coffee that I’ve had in NY. The aesthetic is incredible and the service is so friendly. My go-to spot, the pastries are delicious and they have fun new options too. A true Queen’s gem, a must

Ever since Somedays opened, I’ve been visiting often—and it has quickly become a favorite for my entire family. From their incredible croissants to the cookies, cakes, and breakfast options, everything is consistently delicious. One thing I have to highlight is their soft-serve ice cream—yes, they have soft serve! I’m a vanilla girl, and their vanilla bean is wonderfully fragrant and rich, but I have to admit their chocolate completely impressed me. I rarely choose chocolate ice cream, but here, I absolutely do. Their coffee and teas never disappoint, and I always look forward to their seasonal lemonade—it’s so refreshing! Every time I walk in, I’m greeted with warm smiles and the friendliest service. The staff truly makes you feel welcome. Somedays is a place I can’t recommend highly enough.

The croissants are the star of the show, but selection is outstanding and everything's delicious: Savory or sweet, dense or fluffy, there's something for everyone. If you're not in the mood for sweet, the croissant hot dog is a clear winner and the buffalo chicken croissandwich is a delicious and novel take on a classic. Plenty of seating is available inside and outside.
