Breads Bakery

"Breads pulls out all the stops for Hanukkah, so it’s no surprise that they’re making four different sufganiyot flavors. You can opt for the traditional strawberry jam filling, or go avant-garde with passionfruit, vanilla, or chocolate. Better yet, be the star of your holiday gathering and get some of each so you can engage in the age-old Jewish tradition of arguing over which flavor is better. " - carina finn koeppicus

"The Rockefeller Center location of this Israeli bakery has grab-and-go items like salads and sandwiches. But the only reason we come here is for the baked items—especially the chocolate babka that reminds us of gooey cookie dough straight out of the oven with warm layers of chocolate pudding folded in. Other favorites include the cinnamon roll (basically a cinnamon croissant), the bureka filled with herbs and mashed potatoes, and the soft cheese straws topped with burnt cheese." - bryan kim, will hartman, hannah albertine, kenny yang

"Dr. Jill Biden stopped by Breads Bakery in Rockefeller Center to pick up some chocolate babka, a spokesperson confirmed." - Luke Fortney

There’s no seating here, but most people just plant themselves on the ledge by the windows, because not immediately eating whatever you get is unthinkable." - Kenny Yang

"The western reaches of Rockefeller Center are now home to a location of Breads Bakery. Unique to the location, the company’s fifth in Manhattan, is a pretzel made from rye sourdough starter." - Emma Orlow
