Northside Bakery.

When Northside Bakery was first founded in 1992, it was a cozy little bakery. After one year of operation, the bakery was forced to move to Williamsburg’s Northside due to its wild level of success (hence the name). All these years later, demand for the family-run Williamsburg bakery has only increased.

Boasting awards for having some of the best bread and artisanal pastries in the city, it’s not surprising to see them on a list of best bakeries in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The Polish heritage of Northside Bakery runs deep. A hot bar with authentic foods, imported goods, and of course mouthwatering baked goods can all be found under one roof here.

Fair warning, waiting in line exposes you to temptation. Polish imports that are readily available on the shelves will quickly distract you and you won’t be able to leave empty-handed!
