appetizing institution on broadway at 80th since 1934. bagels, smoked fish, cheeses, prepared kosher foods, coffee roasted on-site. two-story, lines worth it. wander the aisles, maybe buy nothing.

the uws location of union square hospitality's all-day cafe, on amsterdam at 78th. signature crullers (cinnamon, maple, coffee, chai, sprinkle), plus made-to-order sandwiches and slow-roasted chicken later in the day. small treat, you earned it.
