Padoca Bakery + Cakes

I absolutely love this place. They have the best coffee on the UES. The PDQs are amazing. I get them fresh and also their frozen cook-at-home bags…my kids love them so they are a real life saver when out of breakfast ideas! I would also recommend the chocolate chip banana bread muffins and loaves. I am not gluten free - I eat these because they are delicious! I had been eating them for years before I even noticed the “GF” label on the bag. Now I get them for all my friends who ARE gluten free. The molasses cookies and strawberry muffins and apple cakes - when in season - are amazing as well.

Padoca Bakery is a great find to have so close! Incredible PDQ rolls that are delightful stuffed with cheese inside these light rolls from Cassava flour, loaves of orange olive oil cake, banana chocolate chip, zucchini, and double chocolate chip. As well as birthday cakes - which come in chocolate, red velvet, vanilla, and orange olive oil cake with buttercream layers and frosting. They have gluten-free mini muffins, and lots of creative espresso lattes. The chocolate chip cookie dough and PDQ rolls are available frozen for people yo make at home!
