Pasticceria Bruno for pastries and lunch

Nice ambiance at Pasticceria Bruno in Staten Island. I hear the same is not true at the Manhattan location, but I guess it’s so much harder to pay the Manhattan rent. Go there for the largest assortment of beautifully crafted, pastries, breads and panini sandwiches, some main courses, salads and pizza. It is an excellent place to meet a friend for lunch, take the family for breakfast or just break your diet by yourself. Everything else except maybe the croissants are better than at the Royal Crown, the original “go to” bakery on Staten Island. Pasticceria Bruno is located at 1653 Hyland Blvd, Staten Island, NY.
