Reviews
Iconic NYC bakery. Smells great just walking in here! Quick service and enticing selection. I've had their bread at nyc restaurants. They're known for bread loaves and they'll slice them for you. Go for the sourdough. Rugalah are classics here. Staff are friendly.
Amazing bakery! The babkas, the rugelach, the Sourdough, the focaccia, etc. It is all well-made and delicious!!worth every penny!
By far my favorite bakery. It has quickly
Become my TO GO spot for snacks. Their Sunday surprise cookies and almond chocolate croissant are must try’s. Everything on the menu is pretty much over the top tasty.
It’s a great spot for baked bread. It’s good. It’s hard to say how great it is cause lots of good bakeries in NY. Almond croissant was not as fluffy:/.
Review for breakfast breads and bagels only. Breads were cool by 8AM. Pletzel was a favorite—ample seasoning and great with some goat cheese and lox (purchased elsewhere). Bagels on the smaller side and pricey, but standard for the area; better value if made at home, but satisfying on the run.

Best bagels. I dont care what anyone says. The bagels taste sooo good. The babkas are GREAT! The garlic sticks are great! Everything taste so good. The service is also so good. Every single person who works there or has worked there in the last 5 years i have been going have been some of the nicest ppl ever. Orwashers the best.
No trip to the Upper East Side should be devoid of a visit to this historic baking establishment. I have been on a hunt for the best regular croissants in NYC and Orwashers is right up there in at least top 5. It is consistently flaky, buttery but has good density. Perfect for afternoon coffee. Also the sourdough, strawberry rhubarb doughnuts and sticky babka are essential binges. I'm so happy that such bakeries are still in gentrified NYC.
People who visit quality businesses in NYC and complain about lines and items being sold out late in the day should honestly be banned from being able to review places. Like, what did you expect?!
Orwashers is an amazing bakery. We tried their salmon & dill cream cheese breakfast sandwich, chocolate almond croissant, multigrain bread, seeded rye bread, mini black & whites, and all three flavors of rugelach. Everything was very good, and the only thing that I thought was priced a bit high for what it was was the small boxes of rugelach that were over $12. Then again it's quality ingredients and there is a bit of effort that goes into making it so I'm honestly still going to come back and buy them 🤷♀️ And there's also a million other things i saw that I wanted to get but...til next time.
The one annoying thing was that i did have to remind the cashier that I was still missing items from my order, but i did order a lot and it was early in the day. But just make sure you pay attention, and they'll take care of you.
