Just when you thought Somedays Bakery couldn't take it up any more notches, they're back with more creative surprises. The beloved purveyor of premium pastries just launched its fall menu with a lineup that’s equal parts cozy and chaotic, in the best possible way.

Available now across all four locations (Astoria, Long Island City, Bayside and Montclair), this season’s collection is packed with bold new ideas, from savory showstoppers to dessert hybrids that make zero sense on paper, yet surely, totally work.

Let's start with the Beetlejuice Croissant. It's a bi-colored noir pastry that looks like a Tim Burton fever dream and tastes like Halloween in a flaky shell. Inside is a silky orange pastry cream that’s just sweet enough to make you forget how spooky it looks.

Then there’s the shepherd’s pie croissant. This is comfort fare (seasoned ground beef, mixed veggies, mashed potato) wrapped in an elegant, buttery croissant dough. It's pub classic meets Parisian boulangerie.

On the sweet side, the honeynut cheesecake Danish steals the show with a layer of honeynut cheesecake on a brownie base, crowned with whipped mascarpone and a drizzle of dulce de leche.

For those who crave a sugar hit with a side of nostalgia, the apple pie almond croissant takes the bakery’s iconic almond croissant and loads it with warm apple pie compote.

The rest of the lineup is no less intriguing: butternut focaccia with goat cheese and Mike’s Hot Honey, the over-the-top triple choc pain Suisse and a spiced pumpkin sweet bun that turns pumpkin spice season into a full-blown pastry party.

As for Thanksgiving, the team hints something “super special” is on the horizon. Given this lineup, expect the unexpected, and get in line early to snag the best treats.
