GRAND OPENING: Patis Bakery in FiDi, Replacing Long-Shuttered NYC Kosher Spot

After months of rumors, delays, and back-and-forth, it’s finally happening—Patis Bakery has officially landed in Lower Manhattan’s Financial District, opening a brand-new location at 160 Broadway. The grand opening is set for tomorrow, Tuesday, March 25th, bringing a much-needed kosher café option back to this busy part of the city.

This new Patis location replaces the former Milk N’ Honey café, a beloved kosher spot that closed during the height of the pandemic and never returned. For years, the kosher community in FiDi has been without a reliable café-style destination, and Patis is stepping in to fill that void with its signature mix of French-inspired pastries, artisanal coffee, and elevated brunch and lunch options.

As with their other locations, Patis FiDi will offer a wide variety of menu items, including fresh croissants, danishes, and baked goods, alongside a selection of chef-crafted sandwiches, seasonal salads, creamy soups, brunch bites, pizza, and sourdough breads. Their espresso drinks and iced coffee are also fan favorites, drawing loyal customers across their locations in New York and beyond.

This opening marks a strategic move for the Patis brand, tapping into a densely packed area of the city where kosher food options remain limited. While Midtown and Brooklyn have seen strong kosher growth in recent years, FiDi has remained a bit of a kosher desert—especially for those looking for something quick, dairy, and quality-focused. Patis entering this neighborhood changes the game for commuters, downtown residents, tourists, and anyone working in or around Wall Street.

The space has been completely refreshed from its former look, now showcasing the sleek, modern, and slightly European vibe Patis is known for. And for those wondering—yes, everything is still under reliable kosher certification and meets Pas Yisroel and Cholov Yisroel standards, just like at their other locations.

This FiDi shop is expected to cater heavily to the morning and lunchtime crowds, offering a quick but quality experience for customers on the go. Early risers can grab coffee and pastries starting at 7AM, with a full menu of sandwiches, soups, and more available throughout the day. While this location won’t stay open late, it’s ideal for daytime visitors and professionals looking for a legit kosher option downtown without compromising on style or taste.

This marks yet another expansion for Patis, which has been steadily growing across New York, New Jersey, and beyond. The brand has carved out a niche by offering a consistent and upscale café experience that appeals to both the kosher and broader foodie markets. Their success lies in delivering both visual appeal and satisfying food—think flaky pastries with layers of flavor, soups that feel homemade, and sandwiches that are a notch above your typical café fare.

For anyone working or spending time in the Financial District, the arrival of Patis is a major win. Whether you’re grabbing an early morning espresso, a midday sandwich, or a pastry for the road, FiDi now has a fresh new kosher destination worth checking out.
