an introduction

Orwashers was founded in 1916 by a Hungarian immigrant family eager to share the traditional rye, black, and grain breads from home with their new community. They started with a small storefront in Manhattan’s Upper East Side, which is still open for business today. Since then, Orwashers has become one of NYC’s most iconic bakeries, offering a variety of heritage and artisanal breads made fresh daily, by hand with love.
