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.”

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
