Third generation black family-owned and operated Caribbean bakery that has been serving the Brooklyn, New York area for over 60 years. Allan and Gloria founded the bakery after friends and neighbors suggested opening a store. Allan started baking goods in one small residential oven and sold them from the back of his station wagon with his wife, son, and daughters by his side in 1958. In 1961 they opened their first storefront on Saratoga Avenue in Brooklyn, in the same building they lived in and eventually moved to Nostrand Avenue years later.

β€œThe space is very clean and cute! Looks like there is no seating. The menu has lots of different items! Sweet (coconut rolls, currant rolls) and savory (beef patty, chicken patty, codfish patty)! The beef patty was truly so delicious! They also have coffee and matcha! 10/10 The location is close to the F/M/J/Z train and the m15 bus! Prices are also very good! Definitely would come back!!”

β€œAllan's Bakery in the Lower East Side is a great spot for Vincy baked goods. They've got cassava pone, currant rolls, hardo bread and more.all fresh and really tasty. Prices are very reasonable too, which makes it easy to come back often.”

β€œAllan's Bakery is Caribbean-centric bakery that serves up a small menu of savory eats, sweet items, breads, and coffee and tea drinks. it's a small modern bakery store located in the Lower East Side. there's no real seating in the shop as it's a compact space, but the interior is well organized, clean, and brightly lit. it seems to be a grab and go spot and it's located only a couple of blocks from an F train stop. stopped here weeks ago and grabbed a drip coffee to go. coffee was solidly fine as it is via machine. this very much a store selling baked items, not a coffee shop. while the sweet items look good, i went for the savory and got a beef patty and a small bag of baked fried. the beef patty had a soft yet flaky crust--the beef filling is well-seasoned but not spicy. definitely a good small bite when you're on the go or want something satisfying but not filling. the baked fried is basically small round pieces of fried bread that are slightly salted fluffiness and are rich bc they are fried but not oily. fried bake is typically paired with other savory eats like cheese or eggs or Trinidadian salt fish. to me, they were fine on their own almost like a fried dinner roll as a snack. the service is pleasant and quick. don't think any baking is done on premises but the food is solidly good and different from your typical offerings around the Lower East Side.”
