About
Veniero's Pasticceria & Caffe isn't your typical gay bar in New York; it's a historic Italian pastry shop and cafe dating back to 1894. Located in the East Village, this budget-friendly spot draws a mixed gay-straight crowd for its Italian pastries, gelato, and espresso with a side of Sambuca. The vibe is casual and charming, with outdoor seating when weather permits.
You'll find it open weekdays from 8 am to midnight, and weekends until 1 am (though those hours are unconfirmed). It's a neighborhood staple where locals linger over coffee and dessert. If you're craving something savory first, Katz's Delicatessen is nearby for a classic pastrami sandwich before heading here for dessert.
