Amazing place! There's always a fresh bakery smell and great options. Got a potato bureka, spinach bureka (puffed pastry). Both were great, very fresh and great taste. Also got an almond croissant, that was good too. The burekas were 2 for around $7 but the croissant was expensive for $6.
Small shop that does a few things really well. One of the best croissants on the UWS. Egg sandwich is so fluffy and delicious. Almond croissant was delicious and flaky.
I’ve been a fan of the chocolate babka but hadn’t had it in close to 5 years. It’s still delicious and probably dangerous to do the two for $30 deal because you’ll eat one whole. This Breads location has many other baked goods as well as savory items. It also has more of a coffee shop vibe with beverages and seating, mostly seating outside. The wait to pay didn’t take too long.
Breads Bakery is so lovely, they have a great selection of fresh-made bread, sandwiches, salads, and bakery goods. Their banana bread is AMAZING, as is their olive bread. The staff here are very kind as well! I highly recommend this spot, they are located close to Columbus Circle & Lincoln Center on the Upper West Side!
I visited NYC for the first time recently. Before my trip, my daughter and I were watching Man vs Food on the Cooking channel. Breads Bakery was featured and the Chocolate Babka looked so good that my daughter said I had to get one and bring it home for us to try. It was delicious and definitely worth tracking down on my trip. If I’m ever in NYC again, I will be getting another!
Hands down the best Chocolate Babka. 2 for $29. Worth to get the whole loft of babka
Cute place but not worth the hype. Very expensive for what you get.
Oh, I'm coming back. Took a quick morning stroll through Central Park and my go-to is to Google best bakery near me.
Well, it didn't disappoint this time. The line was nearly out the door when I got here but service was quick and I was up near the pastries in no time. I ordered the cheesecake bun, which is brioche with raspberry jam. To drink, I got an oat milk mocha from quite possibly the sweetest barista in all of NYC. Seriously, someone give him a raise.
I'll be back later this month to get some of the other cheesecake offerings because hello, cheesecake babka?! That should almost be illegal so I have to have it. So happy I discovered this place during Cheesecake May.
This place is very busy on the weekend morning. I highly recommend you to try chocolate bread and cinnamon role ( if you like sweet bread!)
Best Pain Au Chocolat I’ve had in US. Crispy crust and layers, buttery but not over, chocolate inside is not too sweet (and melted after warmed up).
