Although many families cannot meet at Hanukkah in 2020, this year, due to the high vaccination rate, it is possible to get together again. This year's Festival of Lights comes early, from November 28 to December 6. If you plan to cook a hearty meal for Thanksgiving a few days ago and don’t want to do it again, there are several restaurants, bakeries, and specialty shops that offer take-out holiday meals and snacks in New York City. Leave latkes and lox to professionals and place orders with local companies during Hanukkah this year.

Breads Bakery Breads Bakery is more than just babka (although they can only provide this kind of service, we will be very happy!). Located in Union Square, Lincoln Center and the nearest Upper East Side, this bakery offers a special Hanukkah menu that includes festive foods for pick-up and delivery from November 26 to December 5. The menu includes potato cakes with sour cream and apple sauce, various baking sodas, chocolate babka, chocolate rugelach and salads. In addition to picking up, Breads also provides local delivery services, depending on the administrative region.
