Breadivore Bakery

South Slope, Brooklyn, NY 📍 Maps

Breadivore Bakery, helmed by former Bouchon Bakery and Per Se sous chef Cixiu Gao, is a testament to passion and precision, having started as a farmer's market staple before opening its brick-and-mortar in South Slope in August 2024. The space itself is often described as calm and artful, with quiet classical music setting a thoughtful mood. You'll find high-quality, artisanal breads and pastries crafted with care, though seating is limited.

★ The Legend
Cinnamon and Cardamom Roll
This isn't just any cinnamon roll; it's made with a sticky laminated dough, giving it an incredible texture, and topped with distinct white knobs of sugar. The Infatuation specifically highlighted it as a contender for an 'eat every day for the rest of your life' roll.
◆ Fan Favorite
Sourdough
Breadivore's sourdough products are consistently praised as 'legit' and 'great' across Reddit threads, with customers often comparing it favorably to other local bakeries.
● Chef's Pick
Egg cup
This laminated pastry, inspired by egg tarts and alt-croissants, is filled with ricotta, yolk, funky garlic chive, and parmesan. It's highlighted by The Infatuation as Breadivore's 'internet ambassador' and a unique riff on traditional Chinatown egg tarts by Eater NY.
◇ Hidden Gem
Ham & Cheese
While many flock to the sweeter pastries, the Ham & Cheese croissant is a sleeper hit that regulars rave about, often calling it 'next level.' It's a substantial and perfectly executed savory option that first-timers often overlook.
Insider Tip

Most first-timers arrive later in the day, only to find many popular items sold out. Instead, make sure to get there right when they open at 8:30 AM, especially if you're hoping for a specific sourdough loaf or a wider selection of pastries. Everything is made fresh each morning in-house, so going early guarantees the best options and freshest experience.
