Frenchette Bakery.

Worth it, says Antonina. I’ve found that this bakery toes the line of sweetness masterfully, never overdoing it but providing just enough to satisfy a sweet tooth.

Worth it
  • Address220 Church St, New York, NY 10013
  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

Frenchette Bakery can be found in the Merchant Square Building at the corner Church & Worth Streets. Replacing one of the most popular bakeries in Tribeca (Arcade Bakery, which closed in 2019) Frenchette has found its footing and provides locals with their much needed fix of carbs.

You’ll find all your favorite baked goods at Frenchette, including a kouign amann (think. a caramilized croissant) that will reappear in your dreams. I’ve found that this bakery toes the line of sweetness masterfully, never overdoing it but providing just enough to satisfy a sweet tooth.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
