Drove all the way from New Jersey because I saw a video of the coconut cake and it absolutely did not disappoint! Also got a quarter pound chocolate cookie everything here was fire! Also not only is it a small business, it is a woman own business and that is something to be said, the women are killing it right now!

This might be one of my favorite bakeries in town! The quarter pound chocolate chip cookie was big and chewy, not hard or overly crispy like many others I’ve tried. It was perfectly salted and tasted like a good mix of quality chocolate and buttery goodness. The black and white cookie was also really good. I haven’t tried a lot of black and white cookies in the past but this definitely set the bar. The cinnamon roll was soft, gooey, and amazing but a little pricey for a small portion. Overall, I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

Gluten free cookie was crunchy and salty if you like that.

The black & white was impressive. It could be excessively sweet but their rendition was balanced. There are also other offering that appper worth trying. Those will have to wait until the next visit.

The Pastry Box is a delightful spot for fresh, beautifully made pastries that feel both classic and a little elevated. Everything tastes thoughtfully crafted, with balanced sweetness and great texture. It’s perfect for a quick treat or a relaxed coffee break. Simple, charming, and consistently satisfying.

Greeted the woman working behind the counter. Met with rude silence and indifference.

A bit out of the way, but the cookies are delicious, and service is friendly, and it's reliably stocked up, unlike another popular bakery close by (red gate). I got the sea salt chocolate chip cookie as well as the brown butter cookies. Both were delicious! I tend to feel like other places get a bit too heavy handed on the salt on cookies; but the salt and sweet here are well balanced. I'll be back!

The Pastry Box is one reason why I work out 6 days a week--everything is so delicious. And be sure to check their 'Gram for when the brownie cakes (more than the regular fab brownies) are produced----oh, my!

I wanted a proper black and white cookie on my visit to NYC and this place delivered perfectly. It was warm and absolutely melted in my mouth. I will be back the next time I'm in NYC!

I normally don’t like thin cookies, but the chocolate chip cookie had amazing flavor. Also got a black & white cookie and it was so good! Better than I’ve had anywhere else on this NYC trip. Staff was friendly and quick.

Yummy cookie and great balance of chewy and crunchy! Sometimes the salt can be much but have had it multiple times with no true complaints.

Tried the signature chocolate chip cookie. Very salty and thin just how I like it. Very cozy atmosphere and it’s always a pleasure to sit in a bakery where staff is laughing/smiling etc you can see how great of a team they are!
