Breads Bakery Spawning New Locations
has a bun in the oven.
The hugely popular Union Square bakery — whose new kiosk in midtown’s Bryant Square Park opens today — will open an Upper West Side location later this year, owner Gadi Peleg told the Forward. Peleg and Israeli-born partner Uri Scheft have signed a lease at 1890 Broadway at 63rd Street, across from Lincoln Center.
“Since we opened in Union Square, the number-one request from guests has been to open on the Upper West Side,” Peleg told the Forward. “I grew up a few blocks away from the new location and I am excited to be back in a neighborhood that always has and always will feel like home.”

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
