Blue Sky Bakery 53 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11217

"Favorite place to get a bran muffin! Truly yummy—we love the triple berry bran but everything we have tried is so good. Highly recommend"

"My go-to spot for a post run muffin!! The rotating bran flavors are fantastic but you really can’t go wrong with any of the muffin options. Very welcoming spot and a neighborhood staple!!"

"The muffins are some of the best I have tried anywhere. I just read a review that they were not good and that is just the most insane statement I have ever heard. These muffins are made fresh each day and they use fresh ingredients. The woman who wrote that review was clearly mistaken. I get muffins regularly and they have never been “days old”, maybe a couple hours. Please come here for an amazing muffin and other pastries! Ignore the terrible review."

"Super cute place, but the muffins are shockingly bad. I’ve had far better muffins from grocery store bakeries! The blackberry peach was especially dry and felt like it had been sitting out for 2 days. Despite its cozy, unpretentious vibes, will not be returning. You have to do better in Brooklyn."

"Great neighborhood coffee shop/bakery, best for morning visits as they close later in the afternoon. Very relaxed atmosphere and kid-friendly. The space is small and doesn‘t have many tables, but they have a lot of children’s books ready to entertain little guests while their parents refuel with coffee. We‘ve always loved their muffins, which are baked in small batches and available piping hot throughout the morning. Favorite flavors are triple berry and blackberry nectarine (see picture) Special shoutout to their cinnamon buns: they‘re the *only* bakery who offers intense flavor without drenching the bun in sugar/syrup. They‘re light, not-too-sweet, and very cinnamon-y. Available with sugar glaze for people who prefer it sweeter, but we keep coming back specifically for the un-glazed version!"
