This is one of the finest Italian bakeries that I have ever seen in my life. As a baker, I like good quality merchandise when they say they make vanilla cookies with chocolate fudge it is true they say they make cannolis. It is with good cream, it seems like everything they make is an excellent quality I grew up with baking in my blood,, have Swedish and Danish baking experience no how to make cringles, worked in Italian bakeries, and know Quality, court pastry shop is in New York. I now live in Florida whenever I go to New York I always stop at court Pastor shop. I don't go to any other pastry shops except courts. if you like tiramisu, cannolis, and good hard rolls go to court Pastry shop. they are located at 298 Court St., do not know the other crossroad but I can take it there. When you are in New York look up courts pastry shop like I say it is an excellent bakery and makes quality products. Poppy Holloway. by the way, they have great service if you order something for Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock you can pick it up at that time or if you order something for 6 o'clock on Wednesday you can pick it up at that time. Another words what I am telling you they have quality products, and very good service.
This place has been the best place to get cannoli for more years than I can remember, btw I'm 65. I grew up in Red Hook and still can remember stopping at various locations to get different things. the street where the 61 bus turned before turning onto Columbia street was where my mom got fresh ravioli, there was a place, I don't remember the street name but it was a corner store that you had to go up a couple of steps and in there was the best italian bread. If you wanted cannolis or italian cookies and other pastries then (as I remember it being called) Court Street Pastry was the place to go.
Great old school Italian pastries. Love the sfogliatella (similar to a "lobster tail"); their cannolis and almond cookies (amaretti, etc...) People seem to love their chocolate cannolis. I don't get the appeal. I don't the flavors mix well - but that's me.
A moment of appreciation for Court Pastry's truly *excellent* Italian ices. The summer-only item is offered from a sidewalk window in limited flavors-- but what do you need a million flavors for, when you have perfect simplicity? I go for chocolate or lemon. The chocolate isn't too sweet, kind of a light cocoa-y granita effect. The lemon is as tart and bright as homemade lemonade, an almost sorbet-like smoothness. It's tempting to order a big size, sure-- but small/medium comes in a classic paper cup that charmingly wrinkles and bends as you slurp to race the melting heat. If you're inclined to go for an after-dinner treat make it an early supper, as they close promptly at 8pm. The whole business is a true historical gem of the neighborhood, it certainly feels like it hasn't changed much since they got started in the 1940s. I know others adore their baked goods, I haven't tried them myself in a while. But the Italian ices are at the top of my authentic Brooklyn summer must-haves.
They sell ices!!! I got the custard which was yummy and had nuts in it. My kid got the lemon ice which was super tasty and made me regret my decision! They had chocolate and pistachio which I will try another time! Yes they have cookies which we love but I never saw them with ices!!!
Thank you Court Street! For keeping the chocolate cannolis perrrrfect!! We have so few treasured authentic Italian bakeries left. Let's hope they never change.
A friend of mine who grew up in the area has always spoke highly of Court Pastry Shop. We were in Brooklyn to see a show and I had to stop by to grab cookies for my family and send some to her now that she lives in VA. The counter workers were lovely and pleasant to chat with and gave great recommendations. Additionally they had extra cannoli that they sent home with us when they heard we had kids. I've heard in the past they only take cash but now, since Covid, they take charge as well. We'll be back when we visit Brooklyn again!
I stopped by Court Pastry again today for the millionth time since I first tried it in 1985. This is the OG. The real deal. Take the cannolis.
