Danish bakery with artisanal breads, pastries, sandwiches & meals
"I love carbs and especially double carbs, and the smorrebrod here (open-face rye) caught my eye: a very stout rye topped with potato salad made with a mayo so sweet it will make your toes curl, which actively fights against the potential healthfulness of the bread." - Robert Sietsema
"With two Manhattan locations temporarily closed, Ole & Steen is operating its remaining shop on Broadway near Union Square to deliver bread for all three locations; the menu includes rye breads, seeded rye rolls, and the signature skagen loaf, and customers can add a $2.50 container of the bakery's housemade starter." - Luke Fortney
"Ole & Steen, a Danish bakery import, is part of the broader industry shift towards omnichannel revenue streams." - Erika Adams
"Ole & Steen normally operates three locations in Manhattan, but only the one on Broadway near Union Square is still open, and offering delivery through Caviar. Available for delivery or pick-up—contactless order ahead via Ritual—are a large selection of rye breads, sourdough, the shop’s signature skagen loaf, spelt loaves, and seed rye rolls. On the sweet side, find cinnamon rolls and frosnappers: pastry twists filled with marzipan, poppy, and sesame seeds." - Daniela Galarza, Eater Staff
"I tried offerings from the Union Square Danish import and found stellar breads, sandwiches, and pasties." - Eater Staff
