Julien Boulangerie

Yorkville has its share of bakeries, but few double as a morning coffee stop. Julien Boulangerie sits at 1431 York Ave, a short walk from the 77th Street subway, where the scent of fresh bread meets the hum of the Upper East Side waking up. Breakfast here isn’t just pastries—it’s a small meal, with seating for those who want to linger over a croissant and a cappuccino before the day begins. The menu leans into simple, classic offerings that pair well with the neighborhood’s quiet rhythm.

A block east of Third Avenue, the bakery fits neatly into the local routine. Coffee and dining options are listed plainly, though regulars tend to know what they’ll order before they step inside. When questions arise, (646) 422-7455 connects directly to the counter.
