Sullivan Street Bakery Adds a Cafe to the Scene

It has been nearly 18 years since Jim Lahey moved his Italian-style Sullivan Street Bakery to West 47th Street from SoHo, keeping the name. During that time, he has tweaked the Hell’s Kitchen location more than once. Now, he has given it a complete overhaul, adding a bright new cafe and upgrading some of the equipment in the big wholesale bakery that may be hidden from view but is the soul of the operation. The menu for the light, airy cafe is the work of the executive chef Morgan Schofield. It starts with breakfast items like brioche French toast and includes soups, salads, pastries and made-to-order or grab-and-go sandwiches. There is a stretch of retail counter for breads, other baked goods, and Lahey’s signature Roman pizzas: Sullivan Street Bakery, 533 W. 47th St., 212-265-5580, sullivanstreetbakery.com.
