Mission & Values

Introducing a delightful new addition to our coffee & wine lounge menu from Jessy’s Pastries! As a Latina-owned business, Jessy’s Pastries is rooted in the rich culinary traditions of Lima, Peru, where its founder grew up learning the art of baking from her abuelas. These cherished recipes have been passed down through generations, each one with its distinct Peruvian flair.

After moving to New York City at seventeen, a blend of Peruvian heritage and American indulgence shaped the unique creations you’ll find in Jessy’s empanadas. We’re excited to bring you the perfect fusion of these two worlds, combining the flavors of childhood memories with the sweet discoveries from a new home.
