I don't get there very much, because it is out of the way, but the few times I've been there, I would rate it as so, so. Bakeries are really a dying breed i New York City. For many, many years there was a bakery in my neighborhood of Oakland Gardens--Adrien's, which did a land office business. You had to wait on line on Sunday morning. Sadly, it is gone now. In Queens there is a good bakery on 73rd Avenue and Main Street, and Stork's in Whitestone.
Fairway has some decent stuff, but when I need high quality, I go to William Greenberg in Manhattan and Junior's in Brooklyn. When I was growing up in Da Bronx,
there were three excellent kosher bakeries on the block between Tremont Avenue and 176th Street, Sutter's on the corner of Fordham Road and the Grand Concourse andSnowflake (excellent) on White Plains Road and Pelham Parkway.
As I said bakeries (especially kosher) are a dying breed, and
will continue to do so.
