Streetlevel: Bakery in Bed Stuy Crown Heights
Lily and Fig, a cake shop with delectable-looking lemon tarts and chocolate/raspberry florettes, is soon-to-open at 727 Franklin Avenue in Bedford Stuyvesant Crown Heights. A little googling turns up another address, at 1012 Bedford — maybe one’s wholesale and one’s retail? We’ve heard a rumor that tea and coffee will also be served.

When will this place open? It looks like it has been ready for 2 months. And I hope it stays open longer than Sage did.
I’d just like to point out that this is in Crown Heghts, NOT Bed Stuy.
you’re right–thanks for the correction.
You might want to change the “Category” to “Crown Heights” as well just in case folks like me search for articles by neighborhood.
Kinda far from me, but closer than going to another neighborhood. I’ll be there eventually. Yum! Keep ’em coming!
Biff, that’s Beverly Hills Post Office, not Beverly Hills.
A Corcoran broker just told me it’s actually in Beverly Hills.
Thanks for your post, Lisa. Just to point out that this new bakery is actually in Crown Heights! Crown Heights – especially Franklin between Atlantic and Eastern Parkway – has a burgeoning restaurant/bar/retail scene. And, cause I am just so damn pleased to see new spots opening up on this stretch that I thought it would be useful to have Lily & Fig promoted as the latest addition to the Crown Heights scene. Hopefully others will follow… For anyone out there looking to open a commercial venture in Crown Heights – how about a bakery selling bread, bagels, etc?
Isn’t this part of Franklin Ave, Crown Heights?
