Happy Pride Month! 🏳️🌈🩵🏳️⚧️
05/24/2026
4th Fridays just got a little more permanent. ✨
We teamed up with Lucky Penny Tattoo to welcome them to the neighborhood the best way we know how — flash tattoos, pasta, cocktails, and an after party that turned into exactly what we hoped for.
Anyone who got tattooed from the flash sheet enjoyed a complimentary drink (…or two 👀) and honestly the energy all night was so good.
Also: if you ever get a Bridget Foy’s or Cry Baby tattoo, please show us immediately. There’s a very real chance you’ll get a little treat for life.
And as always — the 4th Friday after party is at Cry Baby. 🍝🍸

Handmade with Love at Cry Baby Pasta 🍝
There is nothing quite like the texture and bite of hand-rolled pasta. At Cry Baby Pasta, we take the time to craft our noodles from scratch every single day, ensuring that every forkful carries that authentic, artisanal quality you can only find in a kitchen dedicated to the craft.
Our menu moves with the seasons. We believe the best flavors come from what’s fresh right now, which is why we’re constantly updating our offerings to highlight seasonal ingredients. From vibrant spring peas and ramp pestos to rich, earthy autumn flavors, our seasonal plates are designed to celebrate the time of year in every bite.
Whether you’re a fan of the classics or looking to try our latest seasonal creation, our bowls are overflowing with heart, soul, and comfort.
✨ Fresh Pasta. Seasonal Flavors.
