Few options but works

Got the vegan banana bread and cookie. Decent for vegan treats because limited options near Bryant Park unfortunately!

Very Hit or Miss

This place is very unreliable. I've been 5 or 6 times and sometimes they have vegan deserts, other times they don't, and several times the people working there had no idea what I meant by "vegan options." When they have it, the blackberry cake/tart is very good (it's labeled vegan).

2 really good vegan sandwiches! Highly recommend

The sandwiches were so good and all vegan! The best bread and veggies and even vegan mayo and cheese. I ate too fast so I didn’t get a pic. They also have good coffee drinks with plant milk and fruit. I was pleasantly surprised.

Pros: Vegan sandwiches , Good coffee, Nice interior

Tasty

Not too many vegan options but pretty tasty. Refreshing and rare for the more commercial options in the area

Fine bread shop chain

Old & Steen is a Danish chain that offers hearty breads and some other fare. I like their breads, though I confess that I am surprised to see them listed on Happy Cow. True, they do offer some vegan items sometimes, and most of their breads are vegan--but this is not a place that I would go out of my way for (unless I simply want to buy bread).

When I poked my head in this branch recently, I got a pumpkin seed roll to go (I did not see anything but bread that was vegan). My roll was quite nice and filling. And that is basically how I view this place: a venue where if you are passing by, you can grab some bread that is much better than the typical bread--and if you are not expecting much, you might not be disappointed.
