Butter & Crumble

What you need to know

The Food

The croissants and cruffins rotate monthly. Cakes are sold by preorder only, with new availability dropping through Hotplate every Monday. Pastry boxes can also be preordered every Tuesday morning between 9am and 12pm for the following weekend, which is the only way to skip the main line.

The Space

Small storefront takeaway only, walk over to Washington Square Park to eat. Open Thursday through Sunday only, and lines start before opening on weekends. The bakery has asked customers not to line up too early to keep the neighborhood happy.
