Everything here is $15 per pound. I have just found out that there are two kinds of chocolate babka. The regular and super chocolatey version. I always pick the one with more chocolate. The apple streudels are pretty good too. They have a sugar free kind and it's huge. read more

Oneg Bakery was unfortunately disappointing. I picked up some chocolate rugelach towards closing time but assumed they were freshly baked in the morning. The rugelach were very dry and stale, which was disappointing as this place has rave reviews & I love rugelach. I remember my childhood fondly when I would go to Shloimy's Bakery in Borough Park with my mom to get their fantastic rugelach that was not dry at all & absolutely delicious at all times of the day...Oneg unfortunately missed the mark. Only reason I gave them two stars versus one star is because the owner was very nice. read more

Oneg Bakery - Stale rugelach - Bakeries Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Came here due to the rave reviews and the old-school Hasidic vibes but was disappointed with the lackluster flavors of most of the items we tried. The rugelach wasn't bad. The chocolate babka was heavy and doughy, the Breads Chocolate Babka is way better in texture and chocolate flavor. The heart-shaped strawberry cookies tasted like play-doh my daughter spit it out after one bite. Will stick to Breads. read more

Babka was unbelievable! It was so chocolatey and dense in the best way. It seemed like we got a really big piece, but it did not last long. It was a small shop, but the selection was overwhelming (also in the best way). The employee was very nice and gave us a glove and bag and told us to fill it up. There were lots of pastries, cookies, and other desserts. Everything was priced by weight. Oneg and Michaeli bakery are now my favorite babkas in the city. I will definitely be back! read more

Best Babka ever! I decided to order a Babka from here after seeing all the great reviews on Instagram by ChrisCaresnone aka "The Babka King" - I had it shipped from NY to Los Angeles! Expensive, yes! But I always say you get what you pay for and this Babka was perfection! I shared it with some of my family and friends and they all loved it! I ordered the double chocolate and it was so rich and decadent. Next time I'll order the regular chocolate Babka. I can't be trusted with it in my freezer because I will eat it every day! I love it frozen! The service was great - it shipped and arrived in 3 days. read more

Looking for some babka and rugelach, and discovered Oneg was a few blocks from where we were staying in Williamsburg. Trekked over and sampled the richest babka I've ever had, super chocolately and dense. This place cranks out some serious goodies. Not to be missed if in the area. read more

Alright, Bubby - sit down, be quiet, and listen. Chances are, if you are reading this, you have no clue. Welcome to Williamsburg, Brooklyn, home to one of the largest concentrations of Chasidic / Ultra-Orthodox Jews in the world. Oneg Bakery is in the midst of its literal world. Be respectful to the men working at this location; They are swamped. Yes - all the hype is true; this is quite possible. Why don't we just be honest? This is where the greatest Babka on planet Earth can be found. Anyways - You get what you pay for. They take credit cards. Parking doesn't exist; however, I was fortunate enough to see some on a Friday afternoon. Don't be a shmuck; they have one flavor of Bobka only. This is not your typical Jewish Bakery; again, they specialize in Babka; they have a few other items that are simply delicious. It is a school and an authentic place. It's worth the shlep! The staff was very kind and facilitated carrying my 4 Bobkas to my pickup truck. I made some people back in North Carolina very happy. Challah was amazing! read more

I live in Florida and ordered a choc bobka thru Goldbelly. I was extremely disappointed in the utter garbage that was sent to me. My husband of almost 51 years surprised me with this gift for my birthday/Mother's gift. I cut a slice and that was the last slice I took. It was dry and floury, The only good thing was there was a lot of chocolate. If I still lived in N.Y. I would have returned it. I am a home baker and I miss the great desserts from N.Y. The babka I received had no tam (taste), just dough,chocolate and flour. Dissapointed and dissatisfied. It's unfortunate that you spend good money for an inferior product. The packaging was only parchment paper and a plastic bag, unacceptable for a heavy item and surely not giftworthy! read more

Yes, this is the only Babka worth eating in this city. Nay, the world. It's rich and chocolatey and all the other things everyone says about it. But the real star of this little bakery is the onion rolls: a beautifully baked challah dough packed with sautéd onions inside of it. This is not an onion bun like you'd make a sandwich out of. It is like a jelly doughnut, except the filling is heaps of onions and poppy seeds. It's amazing. Go for the babka. Stay for the onion rolls. read more

Delicious baked goods. The babka is to die for. Quick service and nice lady who helped me. A little expensive for the babka but it's huge and delicious. They sell by the pound. A bit dry so I wish I would have had freshly baked babka and rugelach but other than that, it was excellent. read more

Babka, double chocolate, delicious, gooey, not too sweet, dense, heavy. It was a gift so I don't have sticker shock.

I flew in from LA to see about the chocolate babka at The Oneg Heimishe Bakery. They sell it by the yard, and for fifteen bucks you can buy enough to start a riot in Minsk. This babka is so heavy the M train fell through the el on Marcy Avenue as I lugged it home. How does it taste? Like it was baked by Hashem. This is the FAAFO of babkas. Rich, crunchy, creamy, layered to perfection. Who'd a thunk such decadence would come from such a humble-looking shop? I've never tasted so much chocolate in a babka. Next time they run out of chocolate at Whole Foods, you'll know whom to blame. I could go on, but after eating a second slice, I have to lie down. Wow, that's a good babka... read more

I was a first timer in Oneg to get some rugelach, hamentaschen, and a kokosh. The vibe and the pastries were awesome. The treats here are absolutely outstanding. I can't think of a goyim bakery that has stuff like this. 1000/10 read more

The chocolate babka from Oneg Bakery was on my To Do list for years and I finally went a few weeks ago and it did not disappoint. The shop is small and unassuming but you're not there for the ambiance or the decor. It's all about the babka and it is excellent. Just go and get it. I really like the babka from Zaro's and Breads Bakery, but Oneg is better. read more

This is the OG babka spot. The babka is huge so they sell them a portions. We took away a half portion of babka which was still twice the size of most other babkas. A half babka probably feeds about 8. I'm not sure if they sell quarters or even eights, but that would be closer in size to what I'd typically buy from elsewhere. The babka is ultra rich, super dense, yet not sweet. It's actually a bit on the bitter side and sort of gave me some raisiny notes. Altogether, it's a very unique experience that I enjoyed. read more

Oneg Bakery is the real deal Jewish Bakery with babka worth' driving 20 minutes off your path for.. which I just did. Wow. Love good Jewish bakery and this is the real McCoy well not McCoy but this is it. Babka (chocolate) so good looking you feel bad to ask them to break one up but they kindly do and did. The whole one is huge and good if bringing or having company. Jacob one of the Oneg patriarchs was so helpful , makes me want to go back just to say hi. Happy days picking up some cinnamon rugelach and hamentachen. Got extra to share with my companion and to send some home with. Bookmark this real deal bakery and make a pilgrimage. read more

OPEN FOR BUSINESS!! Not sure why 'Yelpers report this location has closed' because as of 9/3/2021 they are very much still open! Seeing that notification gave me a panic attack because I will detour out of my way to get their Babka whenever I'm in New York. I called the shop to make sure they were open and the man who answered had no idea why I'd even think to ask. "Of course we're open! Come!" He beckoned. I went in person and confirmed. They are in fact open :) Owners/staff are super friendly, and the babka is delicious. Best in New York from what I can tell. Freshly baked and rich with chocolate. I gift it to my Jewish friend(s) and it's always a hit. The smell of the shop is breathtaking -- all the breads and baked goods send me to special place (see photos). I've been here now a handful of times and 100% will continue coming back. read more

I wish I took pictures of my goods, but I couldn't wait and dug in. I got these mini pastries that looked like a crescent roll and another one that looked like a cinnamon roll. But in all honesty, I came here for one thing.... Their Babka. I walked 2 miles from my hotel to this Bakery and walked my goods 2 miles back. It was definitely worth it. The babka was loaded with chocolate it was more chocolate than bread for sure. Swirls and swirls or never ending chocolate it was an absolute dream. The other pastries I got were also delicious but tasted like a mini version of my babka. Definitely make a trip to Oneg bakery for a yummy experience. read more

Yooooooo this was the bomb! So I don't think I've ever had babka before. My friend was raving about this place and that she had to take me here before I head back home. She's a great friend. It's a small place so we waited until the person inside left as a courtesy. My friend told me they sell the babka per lb. I decided to get 1/4 of the whole loaf of the double babka to take home. I wanted to try the other pastries but man that babka was heavy! When we got home, my friend gave me a slice and I heated up a little bit and that was a great decision. The caramelization was mmmmm so good. A thin slice is filling but you'll keep wanting for more! The double chocolate one was the way to go. If you're wondering how long it lasts if you put in the fridge, it'll last for more than a week. Yes I was able to practice some restraint in devouring all of it in 3 days of maybe less. Now either I have to bug my friend to bring some home for me or I'll have to fly there to grab some babka errrr I mean visit my friend. Yes I know they ship but any excuse to travel right? read more

I visited during COVID season. Place is packed with no mask on. I am indeed terrified. But food is much more important than getting COVID. I bravely quickly stepped in and welcomed by the friendly owner. I ordered whatever they offered and pay the cash Anyway this is something crazy. Their sweets are very old school and with some best quality in nyc. I sincerely hope they can wear masks so I can come back soon. Or I then have to wait til COVID is over. Overall:4.5 stars. Its weighted by pounds read more

One Bakery. Finally made it to the Babka promised land in the heart of orthodox Williamsburg Brooklyn. This is a no bull no frills orthodox jewish bakery that is known to make some of the best babka in NYC. You walk in and you tell the man behind the counter what you want and you leave satisfied. For some reason on my only visit here I went and ordered some different version of babka which was not like many of the pictures on here. It wasn't big or square. I got some sort of a flat loaf. Taste wise whatever it was, it tasted like a babka but didn't look like what I was normally accustomed to. It was gooey, chocolatey, and definitely tasted fresh. Wowza! My slice was $11! I'll be back but next time I want the big slice of babka like everyone else gets! read more

The babka here is amazing! It is very chocolatey and was pretty fresh. The edges were nice and crispy as well! I spent about $20 for a 1/4 loaf and it was more than enough for me! The workers all seem very friendly as well. I will mention that no one in the area wears masks so if you are worried about COVID, I would not recommend coming here! read more

Empty around 4PM on a Wednesday. Pros: -Babka by the slice -Incredibly nice staff! They threw in a free rugelach with my order -They also have donuts (though I was in a rush and didn't snag one) Cons: -Small place, no seating -- Chocolate Babka ($13.35 for a "slice") It's more accurate to say this is sold by the chunk, given the heaping portion they give you. As everyone has mentioned, it's incredibly chocolatey. The texture is thick, chewy, and a grainy from sugar so it tastes like chewy brownie batter. You risk choking on this if you eat it as fast as I did, but if this was the last thing you ate, you'd probably be pretty okay with it. There was a bit of white thread in my chunk, so take a quick look before diving in. The Rugelach is not super sweet (which is nice) but the texture is closer to that of a dinner roll. Worth a stop if you're a Babka fan! read more

I've been going to physical therapy in South Williamsburg which is the Orthodox Jewish area of Brooklyn. My doctor was talking about the best Jewish bakeries in the area. I also googled the top bakeries and I saw Oneg & double chocolate bobka. When I saw a pic of the bobka I felt I needed to try. Holy cow! I'm glad I did. This double chocolate bobka is one of the best desserts I've had in my life. As Levain is to chocolate chip cookies, Oneg is to bobka. The baker is a Picasso of his art form. And the owner was such a sweet, welcoming gentleman. read more

You know NYC is the rat mecca of the US. All those fantasies you have about raining trash come true in this city. The indulgence almost feels wrong. And so does this babka. Then you realize babka is supposed to be like this - perfectly marbled but mostly chocolate, dense but delicate, and gooey. No signs of dryness with 0% disappointment. Let the yeast melt in your mouth. You walk around the Hasidic neighborhood, see the Oneg sign on Lee Ave, go in, say how many lbs you want (I ordered 1/4 of a lb - that's enough for you and 1-2 other rats), and you get to take home this treat that will change your outlook on babka til you die. I was too preoccupied with the babka but the other items looked really tasty and I'll def be coming back. read more

WOW. From the moment I stepped into the tiny storefront, I was enveloped in the most amazing scent no candle could ever replicate. There were cookies and rugelachs and tons of other pastries but my eyes were on the famed chocolate babka. At $9.99/lb, you can decide how large of a slice you need but be forewarned: the babka is insanely rich and decadent-- it will last for days. The chocolate is distributed in mesmerizing swirls that keeps the pastry moist and chewy. The cinnamon streusel also adds some nice textual contrast to the babka. If you can't make the journey to South Williamsburg for Oneg Bakery's chocolate babka, they're available via Goldbelly! read more

This babka is amazing - one of the best I've had in my life. The place is definitely hole in the wall Eastern European place in the heart of Brooklyn and 100% worth the trek. Such gooey chocolate! Probably one of the reasons why they are so good is because the owners are FROM the place where babka originated (I want to say Hungarian) read more

Extraordinary. Definitely the best babka with the most layered, complex flavors/textures I've ever had. I love that with each bite, you get a bit of crunch, a bit of chewy softness, that heavenly chocolate-y sweetness but also rounded out a bit by some saltiness. It's dense, it's decadent, it's rich. You probably will have to eat the entire "slice" over a couple of sittings. A little out of the way and honestly, pretty expensive (my slice was $12 - cost is by weight, though to be fair, my slice will probably last me at least 3-4x). But so worth it. Don't miss out. read more

I've been dreaming of this legendary babka for weeks. The gooey center, the layers of dough, the flaky crust around the edges. Got here early in the morning on a Friday when it's freshly made for Shabbat, the street so busy with people shopping and cooking for the big Friday night meal. This babka is the most chocolatey of all in New York and it's so dense, you can actually stretch it like a fruit roll-up! The employees are kind and the walls are lined with shelves of fluffy challah, cinnamon rolls and braided chocolate danishes. My surprise favorite: the braided chocolate danish! Less rich and chocolatey than the babka, but fresh and fluffy and fudgey still. All you need is a slice of babka and this danish and your sweets stash will be good for the weekend! 5 stars!!!!!!!! read more
