This was a nice experience with a unique setting. It had a separate dining experience whilst still being an in and out cafe. One of the best experiences I’ve had with customer service, they realized that the food wasn’t as appetizing to one of us and immediately asked if we’d like a replacement. On the food though, the sandwich was more than delicious. The only thing that was a little off was the hot chocolate. It tasted pretty dry but I appreciated the design. Overall a great experience

Cutesy cafe right in Rockefeller.. salted oat Maple latte deserves an award. it is a very legendary bakery mainly famous for the breads. it’s like a diner where you can order in or do a take out. I absolutely love love the vibe feels very retro and classic. Now let’s talk Coffee everyday they have specials and I absolutely loved my Latte. Baristas are happy 😃 and helpful. Usually has a relaxed vibe . I saw lots of people do a take out as well.try the soup+half sandwich

The breakfast sandwich was surprisingly balanced—eggs done over-easy which was nice. The fresh bread and pastries are good too.

Extremely hot take alert: best food in 30 Rock south of the rainbow room. Now, your girl loves a fresh work lunch and there are not many super fresh and healthy options in the rink level of 30 Rock (which is why 9/10 times I bring my own from home). But then I tried the parsley and quinoa salad from the Tipsy Baker and A WHOLE NEW WORLD started playing really loud through a speaker only I could hear. Plays every time I have this salad. Super nice staff as well

Cute place but we got two lattes and they were soooo mid. I am a barista myself and saw so many red flags in regards to the preparation of the latte😭 if customers are paying $7 for a latte, the least you can do is wipe the portafilter for a better quality espresso shot and for basic hygiene practices and put in a bit of effort when steaming the milk 🫠 Will not be coming back since the coffee doesn’t meet proper standards of preparation.

I've been coming to this amazing bakery for several months. They have THE BEST HONEY OLIVE OIL CORNBREAD & DARK CHOCOLATE OILVE OIL CAKE IN NEW YORK CITY. The employees are very kind and give outstanding customer service. I must give a big shout out to Kiara who goes above and beyond and makes the best latte.. I had to get one of my favorites today. 😍 yummmm!

Cute bakery and restaurant Hit and miss food. The grilled cheese and boards were incredible, the ham Sammy on a baguette was dry and the chicken sandwhich used dark meat which I feel should have been noted on the menu. Fantastic cappuccino

Had coffee and a scallion cream cheese focaccia. Both were good. The baked items in the case looked fresh and appealing. I had a quiet table in a corner where I took my time, eating and reading. It was a very good place to get away from the crowds in Rockefeller Center/Plaza. The three staff members with whom I interacted were GREAT— friendly and helpful without being intrusive.

Tipsy Baker is one of my favorite spots in Manhattan. Not only is their coffee fantastic, but the cookies are to die for. I typically pick up a loaf of sourdough bread for the week which is super convenient considering my whole foods is always sold out of their Pain D'avignon loaves. Couldn't rate the staff higher (shout out Kiara!) - they always make my day. This place was the absolute best addition to the Rockefeller Center concourse. Please do yourself a favor and stop in next time you're in the area!

Although I haven't sat down and eaten here, I still had a good experience. The iced vanilla latte is really good, and it's pretty sweet but not overwhelmingly sweet at the same time. Service was great; the barista told me she might have forgotten my vanilla syrup, so to taste it and let her know-- which I feel like a lot of baristas wouldn't really care to do. Ambiance looked good from where I was standing to wait for my coffee too, it has nice yellow lights and waiters seem to be attentive.

In the NBC Comcast building. An oasis from chaos, reasonable prices for New York, superior coffee and baked goods. French inspired. Brunch items. Pleasant servers.

Special thanks to the Tipsy Baker for providing our 26-person group with delicious sandwiches. The students and adults loved them. The food was great and the service was greater. We needed 26 sandwiches to go and they were able to get them to us while our kids shopped. Thank you!

We love Pain D'Avignon bread and are regulars at our local Cafe D'Avignon coffee shop, so when we heard that the same team would be opening a location that serves dinner and drinks we knew we would have to go. All of the food was excellent, served family-style and in small portions which meant we could try a little of everything. The staff was incredibly attentive and our sommelier was extremely knowledgeable, taking his time to help us pick out some outstanding bottles of organic and biodynamic wine. Overall, we could not be happier with the experience - this place blows everything nearby out of the water!

I ordered a small latte and a medium cappuccino. Latte's are typically made with a shot of espresso while the cappuccino is made with coffee. Both have steamed milk. There is a price difference on the menu with latte's espresso costing more. As the 2nd drink was slid across the counter and described as a medium latte, I replied that they got the order mixed up. The barista explained The Tipsy Baker's "little secret", both lattes and cappuccino are made with coffee and steamed milk". Nice to know there is no espresso used in a latte and you just ripped me off. Thank you.

The Tipsy Baker is a great place to sneak in to grab a hot cup of coffee on a cold day in da City when dragging visitors to Rockefeller Center (take the escalator downstairs from the NBC Studios Marquee, adjacent to the Observation Deck line)--once downstairs it's around the corner. Our group enjoyed a fresh baked scone, chocolate croissant, a bread pudding with lattes all around. The Topsy Baker wait staff is also quite helpful with seating & service--but be patient, as it's always a beehive in this part of NYC!!

Ordered a vanilla iced latte and it was delicious!! My family ordered some hot chocolate and they seemed to enjoy it as well. The decor and feel of the space is also very clean and classy. Knocked two stars for employees. Went in to order with my family, and one employee went over to the podium by the door where I assume they welcome customers to sit after paying. We left right after we got the drinks since we were waiting for bagels next door. After the bagels, we went back. There were maybe 5ish employees at counter: one was taking orders, the rest were turned away chatting with one another, and no one stood behind the podium at the door. As my family sat, I stood and waited behind the customer ordering to ask if we could sit and eat. The employee at the counter made eye contact but no one else noticed me (I clearly wasn't trying to order as I already held their drink, wasn't standing where the line to order formed, and no one else was in line). They didn't acknowledge me again so I went and sat (the employee paying attention could've asked another to help me). Five minutes later, we're told we can't eat outside food, even if we bought drinks. If it was crowded or every table was taken, I'd understand but only two small families were eating. If they said we needed to purchase a food item from them to stay and eat, we would've easily done so. But they chose to have us leave when they could've made more money from us. There's also NOWHERE else to sit and eat in the mall unless it's a sit-down restaurant. Coming from out of state, it's little things like this that perpetuates the idea that "New Yorkers are rude", especially when they failed to monitor the entrance and let us know of the policy when we entered. I cannot remember the last time I've been told to leave an establishment because we brought outside food in.

Cute little place to duck in for a nice latte or glass of wine. Nice people and lovely bar. We had a yummy cookie too

Fantastic place with very caring and attentive staff. Particularly want to call out Kiara - she's always very friendly and goes out of her way to make sure everything is a pleasant experience and that customers are taken care of. She'll remember your name and order so you feel like a part of the community the next time you visit the place!

Delicious sandwiches, cookies, cakes and coffee. Service is swift and the staff is always friendly with a smile and will know your name if you're a regular customer. My favorite new spot. It should be yours too.

Picked up a kale feta and almond croissant which were both excellent. Good bake and fresh. Got them at around 1030am.

Service is slow, waitress with the long braid was so rude with an attitude, and the breakfast menu doesn't even have normal items so you have to Frankenstein together sides to get a normal breakfast with eggs. Would opt for 5 Acres in the concourse over this tiny spot.

Oooooof so good. I've only gotten coffee and food from the takeaway section - so technically Cafe d'Avignon, but oh wow. Probably my favorite coffee near Rockefeller Center, and all of the baked goods I've gotten so far are very tasty. I'm a big fan of the olive oil loaves, they're a bit more dense than you think so very filling. The chocolate chip cookie is also really good. The turkey blt is my favorite splurge lunch. Everything here has been really good, the staff are really friendly and they keep the line moving even when it's crowded. Would love to try the actual restaurant portion soon.

Authentic cuisine from the Adriatic Sea region. The Menu boasts a delicious selection of small plate options. There are also a few full plate selections to choose from. The wine list will invite you to try a new white or a full bodied red. The bar tender Jacob will also concoct any cocktail of your choosing. When you arrive Daniel will greet you warmly with his beautiful smile and guide you to your cozy table for the evening. The owner, Tole and his partners will welcome you and your party with open arms and treat you just like old friends. My friend and I felt the warmth and passion in all of our tastings and plate selections. Tole bakes the exceptional bread every day and it will probably be the best artisan bread you have ever tasted. The butter and aubergine spread are unforgettable pairings with the bread. For starters we shared the Ibérico Ham, the grilled peppers in raspberry balsamic vinaigrette, the goat feta cheese. Words cannot express the fresh flavors of these small plates. I hear that the steak tartare is their top selection! For our main meal we opted for the grilled octopus, the cheeseburger and pommes frites! The Octopus was grilled to perfection and the hamburger was mouthwatering perfect as well. Our server, Alina was exceptional in her careful explanation of the Menu items and making sure we received service that exceeded our expectations! Tole and his partners were very generous and made our evening extremely joyful and unforgettable! We also took home loaves of the most delectable sourdough bread and baguettes (yummy) Can't wait to return and savor every item on the Menu at The Tipsy Baker. This is a great destination for after work cocktails with friends and colleagues!

Lots of confused employees. Not knowing menu options or pricing options. It was really uncomfortable. Very limited menu. Stay away from the firtata, not very well cooked. Other menu items like the Persian spread were delicious. The owner was very sweet. She noticed the confusion with her staff and gave us some complimentary baked goodies tofgo.

The service was excellently paired with the fine wine and decadent food. The Mediterranean style tapas are perfect for light sharable plates in the cozy and elegant atmosphere. Very happy to have stumbled upon this restaurant.

Ugh this place could be great but they choose not to be! There is a bunch of space to allow people to sit, yet it remains closed throughout the earlier part of the day. Great croissants but refuse to warm them up (besides the smiling tall gentleman working there - thank you) Breakfast sandwich is cold too - there's an egg on it? Strange and upsetting given the quality being great. Hoping for improvements, as it feels that the managing efforts being made are subpar.

Got the best iced vanilla latte to go with my bagel from across the way. Made perfectly. The vanilla syrup was unique and delicious

My wife and I stumbled on this beautiful cozy restaurant after visiting the top of the rock. I ordered the tipsy wagyu burger and she ordered the tipsy salad. They both were delicious! We shared fries that were tasty and the champagne was great. Very classy and the music was delightful. We highly recommend this restaurant. 5 stars!

I ordered their bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. It was cold. I asked for it to be heated and they said they could not heat it. It was tasteless and cold. I also ordered a coffee which was not very good. Rockefefeller Center has several places to get good coffee. Don'y get coffee here. Don't get their cold egg sandwich.

The Tipsy Baker better dry out and pat attention! While this place looks like a charming addition to the Rock Center concourse with gorgeous lighting and furniture, the food is sub-par and the service worse. I came in with two coworkers for a quick class of wine and a quiche for a brief business lunch today. While the restaurant was mostly empty, it took us over 1.5 hours to get through our meal. I had the spinach quiche which tasted only like nutmeg - I could not taste the spinach or cheese. While eggplant appetizer looked great, it had a strange chicken taste. Five staff members spent much of the lunch service huddled in a corner next to the bar having a meeting. I love Pain D'Avignon and this spot has great potential - but right now it needs a lot of work. I'm disappointed.
