Expanded Clinton Street Baking Company opens on New Year's Day

Pancake-line-waiting hotspot Clinton Street Baking Company is ready to unveil its expanded restaurant on East Houston and Clinton Street.

BoweryBoogie reports that CSBC will unveil the new space on Friday (aka New Year's Day).

The current dining room will be reconfigured to accommodate takeout and coffee, with some limited seating options, BoweryBoogie noted.

The corner space was previously home to Min's Market.

New Clinton Street Baking Company emerges from behind the plywood

An EVG reader let us know that workers have removed part of the plywood at the all-new Clinton Street Baking Company on East Houston and Clinton Street …



As previously noted, the pancake-line-waiting hotspot is expanding into the space last held by Min's Market on the corner.

Here's co-owner DeDe Lahman talking with Gothamist this past December:

The new space will boast 55 seats — up from 32 in the old space — which should help ease some of the brunch time congestion. Lahman says the old space will also stay open, eventually transitioning into more of a take out spot for coffee, baked goods and pickup orders. "The rest of the plans for that spot will take shape as we open the new space and suss out what will work for us and our guests," she explains.

BoweryBoogie reported this morning that the owners hope to have the expanded dining room open Sept. 15.

As BoweryBoogie first reported back in June, pancake-line-waiting hotspot Clinton Street Baking Company will expand into the space last held by Min's Market.

Co-owner DeDe Lahman shared this with Gothamist Thursday:

The new space will boast 55 seats — up from 32 in the old space — which should help ease some of the brunch time congestion. Lahman says the old space will also stay open, eventually transitioning into more of a take out spot for coffee, baked goods and pickup orders.
