To bring the joy of Levain to more neighborhoods, baking with the very best ingredients and a lot of love.

Our Story

Two friends, a swimming pool, and a shared love for baking — Pam Weekes and Connie McDonald baked bread for NYC restaurants before opening their first shop on West 74th Street in 1995. Their famous chocolate-chip walnut cookie was a happy accident from their triathlon training.
