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.”

A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
