"“Next year, Radio Bakery officially enters Manhattan with its highly anticipated new shop on the Upper West Side.” The spokesperson told Time Out that the bakery is aiming for a 2027 opening at 463 Columbus Avenue, although there is still no precise opening date."
"According to West Side Rag, the new Upper West Side shop will occupy the former Park West Pharmacy storefront, with four floors of apartments stacked above. The Columbus Avenue location will be Radio Bakery's third shop, joining its Greenpoint flagship and a Prospect Heights outpost, a slow and steady expansion that Eater New York has been tracking."
"Co-owner and pastry chef Kelly Mencin runs the operation, bringing experience from Bouchon and Gramercy Tavern, according to StarChefs. Mencin was named a StarChefs Rising Star in 2025, and the bakery's meteoric rise earned it a spot on The New York Times list of the best bakeries in America, a nod that helped push Radio Bakery into the national spotlight."
Radio Bakery, known for laminated croissants and sellout focaccia sandwiches, is expanding from Brooklyn into Manhattan. A new Upper West Side location is planned for 463 Columbus Avenue between West 82nd and West 83rd Streets, taking over the former Park West Pharmacy storefront. The site will include four floors of apartments above the bakery. The shop is expected to offer the same seasonal pastries and bread-focused lunch menu that created viral demand, leading to heavy breakfast and midday crowds. The expansion is part of a slow, steady growth plan that already includes a Greenpoint flagship and a Prospect Heights outpost. Co-owner and pastry chef Kelly Mencin leads the operation, with experience from Bouchon and Gramercy Tavern.
