Jade Bakery is a small-batch bakery rooted in Fort Greene. We bake once a day, with flour, water, salt, and patience — no shortcuts, no rush, just honest sourdough and pastries that earn their place on your table.
Our Story
Jade Bakery started as a weekend experiment in a home kitchen — a 72-hour sourdough that made strangers stop and ask what was different about it. The answer was simple: time.
Today we occupy a modest storefront at 6223 8th Avenue, where the same commitment holds. Every loaf is hand-shaped, every croissant laminated by hand, every batch fermented long enough to develop flavor that industrial ovens can't replicate. We serve the Fort Greene and Clinton Hill neighborhoods with something increasingly rare — food made the way it ought to be made.
From the Bakery
Our menu shifts with the season and the strength of our starter. What follows is a glimpse of the staples you'll find most days.
Philosophy
We don't chase trends. We chase flavor, texture, and the kind of consistency that comes from doing the same thing right, every single day.
The best bread doesn't announce itself. It simply arrives — warm, honest, and exactly what you didn't know you needed.
We ferment for days, not hours. Long cold retard develops complexity that no improver can mimic.
Our flour comes from upstate mills. Our eggs from farms within driving distance. We know the people who grow what we bake.
We're not a chain. We're your neighbors. The regulars who know exactly how they take their coffee — that's who we bake for.
Visit Us
