James Beard Award-winning baker Jim Lahey revolutionized home baking with his famous no-knead method, but his Hell's Kitchen bakery remains the temple where artisan bread reaches its highest form. Using techniques perfected in Italy and a 20-year-old natural starter, every loaf emerges from the hearth with perfect crust and complex flavor that can only come from time, patience, and obsessive attention to craft. From the iconic pane pugliese to delicate Roman-style pizza bianca, each bite connects you to centuries of Italian baking tradition adapted for New York's demanding palate.

Incredible food, great atmosphere and staff. Jim Lahey, the owner, is a passionate foodie who travels the world looking for great food, and he loves this neighborhood.

Every Sunday morning, I go for my walk down the Hudson and pick up breakfast from Sullivan Street Bakery. During the early days of COVID they kept us well fed. Our apartment building was going through a renovation and we were without cooking gas for about a year. Sullivan Street Bakery was open once a week and we stocked up on their community loaf, chocolate croissants and other goodies.

I easily go to Sullivan Street three or four times a week. It’s where I get my daily bread (literally), and also pick up occasional sweets – their scones are perfection. After a morning run, I like to arrive just as they open at 7am, grab a coffee and croissant and sit outside while I decompress.

My favorite midday break is with a coffee and bite at Sullivan Street. They're always kind and inviting and the food is just wow.

Sullivan Street Bakery makes incredible sandwiches and I’m so glad they’ve been introducing more new menu items recently. The sausage pizza they debuted recently is really good and I love their brown butter cookie as well.

I love the oliva strecci (so does my cat). Great fresh pastries and bread. Bonus points for it being on my block.

Hal Glatzer

I buy bread from both Amy's and Sullivan Street on a pretty equal basis. Amy's tends to offer a wider selection of breads and sweet things, like their unique "twists". Sullivan Street's Pugliese is crusty on the outside and softer on the inside. In short, I go to Amy's for variety and Sullivan Street for mouth-feel.

Ben Fisher

I'm obsessed with their creme bomboloni, breads and coffee selections — it's a great spot to sit down and get some work done.

Carol Klenfner

Omg, everything they make is delicious — so if I want to keep my training regime, I can't come here very often. But my dreams are filled with memories of the bread and the sandwiches.

Jill Blackford

The bombolones at Sullivan’s are my go-to. Never mind that their bread and pastries are absolutely delicious, they also donate their leftover bread every day to the Hell’s Kitchen Community Cupboard so that we can share it with our neighbors. How amazing is that?

Meet Jill

Cecilia De Bucourt

I live on the same block. Smelling the freshly baked bread is heavenly and I love their products.

Richard Marans

There’s a real sense of community and you always run into people here. It’s off the beaten path so feels more local and less touristy. Plus the bread and pastries are delicious!

Meet Richard

Ryan Raftery

Best croissants in town! I go every Wednesday morning for a cappuccino and pain au chocolat. The staff is super friendly and it’s a great place to read the morning papers.

Meet Ryan

Ryan Sutton

I come here for the excellent tomato flatbread pizza and to get my writing done!

Sean Coughlin

I woke up early on my wife’s birthday this year and came home with a variety of baked goods. She was very happy.

Meet Sean

Damon Webster

Amazing bread, and honestly, any place that has breakfast pizza gets my vote. True, they were mentored by Amy’s Bread, so either gives you a choice of goods.

Meet Damon

Vicky Kuperman

Love going here for coffee and their amazing bread on Saturday mornings. And they’re dog friendly!

Meet Vicky

Cid Roberts

I mean, have you had a Bomboloni? Nuff said.

Meet Cid

Tom Fervoy

Having one of the great bakeries in America two blocks away is the essence of NYC/HK “around any corner” lifestyle. A daily gathering place on the far west side, thanks to Jim Lahey and his crew.

Meet Tom

Jeff Dyksterhouse

The olive bread!! And the donuts…

Meet Jeff

Erika Longo

It’s great if you need a midday caffeine boost or a pizza/flatbread. Their zucchini is my favorite and their lentil soup is delicious too. Bonus is there are usually lots of dog walkers strolling by if you love furry friends!

Meet Erika

Benjamin Hey!

I’ve only discovered this place through my buddy Phil a few months ago and the lemon poppy muffin and olive oil cake are out of this world! Their pastries are HITTIN’!

Meet Benjamin

Paul Devlin

Having a buttery, flaky croissant with coffee in the morning at Sullivan Street Bakery while watching Maya and Jim orchestrate their wholesale business is a motivational way to start the day. Taking home a country loaf or baguette for dinner rounds out my evening.

Tony Simone

My go-to spot when I need carbs!

Michelle Defaz

Bomboloni from Sullivan Street Bakery. It’s hard to find any that can compare to grandma's recipe but these come very close! I’ve been going here for years with my husband every Sunday and now that we have our first baby on the way this will become a family tradition.
