At 1762 Broadway Lounge, every batch is shaped with intention — from our sourdough that ferments overnight to the curated pantries stocked with local and artisan finds. This is baking as it should be: slow, honest, and made for the people right next door.
"The best sourdough on the North Shore. We drive from Rockville Centre just for their croissants."
1762 Broadway Lounge sits on one of Long Island's most storied streets — and we take that seriously. We don't rush our dough. We don't cut corners on ingredients. Every sourdough loaf, every flaky croissant, and every carefully selected item on our shelves is chosen the way a good neighbor would choose for their own table.
What started as a quiet dream to bring real, unhurried baking to Hewlett has grown into a gathering place. People come for the bread — the crusty boule, the brioche that shatters into golden layers — and they stay for the warmth of a space that feels like someone actually cares. That care shows in every batch.
Every item on our counter tells a story — of early mornings, patient fermentation, and the kind of attention that can't be rushed.
Our sourdough starts with a 30-year-old starter culture. Each loaf undergoes a 24-hour cold fermentation, developing a crackling crust and tangy, complex crumb that mass-produced bread simply can't match.
Croissants laminated by hand every morning. Éclairs, tarts, and pain au chocolat made with French butter and the kind of patience that turns dough into something you can actually hear crack when you break it open.
Olive oils, aged cheeses, local honey, artisan crackers, and pantry staples we'd actually keep in our own home. Every product is hand-selected — if we wouldn't eat it, it doesn't go on our shelves.
Birthdays, weddings, shabbat dinners — whatever the occasion, we bake it from scratch. Tell us the flavor, the size, the story, and we'll make something that becomes the centerpiece of your table.
Proper espresso, silky lattes, and pour-overs paired with our fresh pastries. Pull up a chair, read the paper, or catch up with a neighbor — the coffee is just as much about the moment as the cup.
From classic baguettes and dinner rolls to seeded whole grains and olive focaccia — our daily breads are baked fresh each morning and gone by afternoon. If you want it, come early.
We're right on Broadway in the heart of Hewlett — easy to find, impossible to forget. Walk in any morning and we'll have something warm waiting for you.
Our sourdough ferments overnight. Our croissants are laminated at dawn. Whatever you want, it's made fresh — and it won't last until tomorrow.
