At Breads Bakery, you’ll find a delightful assortment of whole grain breads, crave-worthy babka, tempting pastries, and satisfying sandwiches, all wrapped in a cozy, bustling vibe just a stone’s throw from Lincoln Center.
"Looking for a solo breakfast on a bench somewhere? Breads Bakery’s Lincoln Center location is less than a block from the park, which means your iced coffee will still be freezing cold, and your freshly made croissants and babka will still be warm by the time you find a sunny place to sit with exactly zero people nearby." - hannah albertine
"An ideal spot for a quick takeout bite en route to the theater, thanks to the fact that Breads might be the city’s finest chain bakery. Keep an eye out for stellar cinnamon rolls, rugelach with bitter chocolate, flaky cheese straws, crisp potato burekas with sesame seeds, whole loaves of chocolate Nutella babka (maybe overkill before the ballet), and a Tunisian tuna sandwich for the ages." - Ryan Sutton
"We don’t want to start any civil disobedience among the NYC babka-loving community, but you should also know that Breads Bakery in Union Square and Lincoln Center makes the best version in the city (in addition to all of their other pastries, cookies, and sweets). Okay maybe we do want to start babka-specific civil disobedience." - hannah albertine
"Tradition is nice and all, but we think it’s OK to live a little and order hamantaschen filled with mozzarella, parmesan, and walnut pesto. We have no evidence that the fine people of Breads Bakery weren’t sober when they came up with the concept for pizza hamantaschen, but we also have no evidence against it. You can pick up Breads’ savory and sweet Purim specials until Sunday, February 28th at their stores on the UWS and near Union Square - they also have delivery options you can order online here." - hannah albertine
"A good rule of thumb: If it’s a holiday, assume that Breads Bakery has something you want to order. This Thanksgiving, you can preorder a babka pie. We’ll say it again. A babka pie. Pickup is available at both the Union Square and UWS locations. Breads also has some delivery options, which you can read about here." - hannah albertine, carina finn koeppicus
