Following in their father Herb's, and grandfather John's footsteps, Herb and John Glaser are the third generation to run this charming Upper East Side bakery.

John Glaser founded the bakery in 1902, and the shop has been in continuous operation in the same location for 107 years.

Located on 87th and First Avenue, this Yorkville treasure of German heritage, is a must-shop-stop for cookies, danishes, pies and almost any other confection your heart could desire.

Herb is the day baker, and brother John bakes through the night. Be sure to check out the family tree and history of the store if you can keep yourself away from the mouth watering desserts.
