The pastries are outstanding! Love this place and it's one of my go to places when I'm in the city and like a breakfast item. The items that I really good that are fresh are the Chocolate Rugelach, Croissant, and Cinnamon Roll. When I tell you the Chocolate Rugelach is super soft that it's like Charmin, it really is. It's buttery, flaky, and not sweet. This is similar for the croissant and cinnamon roll (lightly sweet). They just really have good options to choose from and you can see why this place usually has a line on the weekend.

I just had the salmon salad for lunch and it’s divine. I don’t know when they brought back the salmon salad but it’s my new favorite. Breads knows how to do everything right!!

Breads us a fantastic no frills bakery and coffee shop! I particularly love their smoked salmon baguette with tomato and onion, their cortado, and their chocolate babka. In addition this locations has tons of outdoor seating! Their egg salad sandwich is also amazing, and you can’t go wrong with their black coffee either! My go to spot for baked goods and coffee Saturday morning

Great service, amazing pastries. Loved the Pizza Bureka - spicy tomato and mozzarella flaky pastry with pizza seasoning that tasted incredible. Chose it after a great rec from a staff member.
