One of our favorite bakeries on the Upper West Side. Great baguettes, strong sandwiches, and sweets that go light on the sugar.

Terrific loaves like rosemary olive & multigrain. Breakfast pastries - cheddar and chive swirl & the California bun - irresistible. On weekends try the herbed brie stick. Coffee not extraordinary.

Delicious. The brioche was fantastic. I went in here because of the cartoon, lol (don't judge me) but came away with a great experience. Freshly made goods. Definitely coming back.

Silver Moon's probably best known for their egg-heavy challah bread, traditional Jewish braided loaves, and they can clean out on Fridays and on Jewish holidays. Read more

Best boulangerie north of Bouchon. Great fruit tarts, chocolate chip cookies, and quiche. I'm partial to the butter loaf, milk bread, and ciabatta. Croissants not so much:(

As much as I LOVE LOVE LOVE their breads and pastries, the sandwiches that they sell for their outdoor sit-down service are passable but not as good in comparison.

Fantastic home made breads, mini baguettes, challah, butter bread are especially noteworthy as as are the pastries
Alex FishJuly 13, 2015
Reason for the hype. Brioche, challah, pretzels...all great!

The chocolate brioche is so tasty. Their breads are always fresh.

Phenomenal local bakery - don't miss the walnut raisin bread. Up your sandwich game.

The challah bread here is second to none! The best time to get some is in the morning.

Get in line, ask for whatever is warm. It's all delicious.

The California breakfast bun is a delicious way to start your day!
Eric CarvinDecember 12, 2010
Amazing baked stuff here. When in the mood for savory, get a seeded ficelle. For sweet, the opera cake.
Harumi UDecember 1, 2014
Nice selection of artisan bread. Have some unique baked goods as well. Tad expensive though in my opinion

You know how when you go to France the first thing you do is get a baguette and it's the best baguette you've ever eaten? This is like that without France.

Pastries here are amazing. Outdoor seating is often for wait service only but the service is spotty and slow so only go if you have a lot of time and patience. Better to take away and bring to park.

Unpretentious serious baguettes. Date walnut sourdough is to die for. Even a couple gluten free options.
Raffaella CiavattaJanuary 6, 2013
Best bakery in town! All tarts are delicious! Breads beyond comparison :)

Bomb ass Gazpacho! Probably the best I've had and, only $6.

Cheese pastry was excellent. Cheese twist not so much.
Madeline McDavidJanuary 5, 2016
Delicious challah and pastries.
David PrinceDecember 1, 2009
Like the NY Times commercial, my wife likes the Blueberry scone and I like the wheatberry roll. Good King Cakes for Mardis Gras too.

A 10-year-old neighborhood institution for great artisan bread and divine macarons.
Valerie PetrovDecember 22, 2014
Don't leave without a creme brûlée!
Mike ChauJanuary 11, 2014
Try the Chocolate Espresso Roll
Avi FlamholzJuly 9, 2009
Cream cheese and currant brioche, no question. If the mood doesn't strike, demi-baguettes, croissants (almond and otherwise), and chocolate-orange rolls are acceptable.
prince of ArroganceMay 3, 2014
Great coffee as well!
Josh KahnJuly 31, 2010

Chocolate cocoa bread. You didn't realize you were hungry until you eat half of it in one sitting.
