Caribbean Bakeries in Flatbush

Walk down Church Avenue or Nostrand and you'll smell it before you see it – that warm, buttery aroma of fresh-baked patties and sweet hardo bread that makes Flatbush feel like home. This neighborhood has been the beating heart of Caribbean Brooklyn for decades, where Jamaican, Trinidadian, and Guyanese bakers keep their ovens fired up from sunrise to well past dinner, turning out the comfort foods that connect us to our roots.

These spots move fast – patties sell out by lunch and the best currant rolls disappear before you know it. Give them a call before you make the trip, and don't be surprised if hours shift with the flow of the neighborhood. We update this list every week because these family-run bakeries deserve your support, and you deserve to know where to find that perfect beef patty when the craving hits.
