Zaro's Family Bakery is an American family-owned bakery, operating in the New York City metropolitan area.

History

[edit]

The bakery was founded in The Bronx in 1927,[1] by Joseph Zarubchik, a Polish-Jewish immigrant, and is now operated by his grandsons, Stuart and Joseph.

In 1977, the company opened its first of three stores in Grand Central Terminal, followed by stores in Pennsylvania Station and the Port Authority Bus Terminal – all in the Manhattan borough of New York City.

It manufactures all of its own products. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor worked at Zaro's Bakery as a teenager.[2]
