Caputo Bakery
Carroll Gardens
329 Court St.
between Sackett/Union Sts.
P: 718.875.6871
A long-loved Italian bakery that has traditional pastry favorites and a variety of Italian breads.
What's great:
The olive bread, made with Kalamata olives, is so popular that it usually sells out fast and early. The same for a prosciutto bread that they unfashionably call "Lard Bread" which has a spicy kick from lots of black pepper.
What to know:
They've been in business for over 100 years. There's no connection between this bakery and the Caputo's Fine Foods market that's further down Court Street.
