Manhattan has a lot of America’s firsts, so it’s no surprise that it is home to America’s first espresso bar.
Ferrara Bakery & Cafe in Little Italy claims to be just that. Opened in 1892 by Antonio Ferrara, the neighborhood cafe survived the Great Depression and is still turning out some of the neighborhood’s best cannolis today.
What many people don’t know, however, is that you can order Ferrara’s fantastic pastries online and have them shipped anywhere within the continental US. Perishable items packed with dry ice so your little tastes of NYC are sure to arrive at their destination tasting just as good as they would if eaten on Grand Street.
So, if you’re in the area stop by and try one of their pastries - or remember them for a great only-in-NYC gift idea.
