A&A Bake & Doubles and Roti Shop

Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, NY 📍 Maps

A&A Bake & Doubles started as a small hole-in-the-wall on Nostrand Avenue before moving to its current, larger Fulton Street location due to overwhelming popularity. This family-run spot, owned by Trinidadian natives Noel and Geeta Brown, is a delicious reminder of Bed-Stuy's rich Caribbean history, especially as the neighborhood continues to gentrify. Regulars know to arrive early, especially on weekends, to beat the lines that often trail out the door for their fresh-made breakfast and lunch.

★ The Legend
Doubles
Doubles are the quintessential Trinidadian street food and the dish that earned A&A Bake and Doubles a James Beard America's Classic Award in 2019. Owners Noel and Geeta Brown have been serving their secret recipe of curried chickpeas sandwiched between two deep-fried flatbreads (baras) since 2002, making it a beloved and iconic dish.
◆ Fan Favorite
Bake with Saltfish
This hearty dish combines a warm, flaky fried bake bread with a flavorful, savory saltfish filling. It's a comforting and substantial option that many regulars swear by for a satisfying meal beyond just doubles.
◇ Hidden Gem
Oxtail Roti
While doubles and bake get all the glory, the oxtail roti is a deeply flavorful and tender option that many first-timers overlook. The rich, slow-cooked oxtail is wrapped in a soft dhalpuri roti, making for an incredibly satisfying and authentic experience.
Insider Tip

Most first-timers just grab their doubles and go, but you're missing out if you don't ask for extra tamarind and pepper sauce on the side. The sauces are what truly elevate the experience, allowing you to customize each bite to your preferred level of sweet, tangy, and spicy, making the already legendary doubles even better.
