Excellent quality, though pricey I stopped at Épicerie Boulud in July 2025 to grab a quick bite before a meeting in the same building. I got a grilled chicken sandwich on ciabattawith sun-dried tomatoes, arugula, and goat cheese. They warmed it up, and it turned out to be delicious - the ciabatta was fresh, the filling generous, and it had a satisfying amount of goat cheese. It cost $15 with tax, but it was worth it. I’d definitely come again.
This was one of those “let’s stop for an orange juice” moments that quickly turned into trying every macaron flavour 😄. Such a fun spot for people‑watching while enjoying sweet treats 🍬. And just a heads‑up the mango macaron was absolutely delicious 🥭💛.
A little bakery-food-tea/coffee outlet on the ground floor of Vanderbilt building. A touch on the more expensive side and limited menu. Limited seating inside. Tea was ok, and pastry wasn't as good as some of the Korean French bakeries the city, but it is convenient beside Grand Central.
