Bakey, the bakery — the kosher café from Israeli baker Uri Scheft — has opened its first South Florida location in Hallandale Beach, according to the brand's Instagram. Scheft is also the operator behind Breads Bakery in New York. The Hallandale Beach address is Bakey's first Florida outpost.
The space seats roughly 50 guests indoors and 70 more on an outdoor patio — 120 total — a footprint that scales the concept well past counter-service into full café territory, with the majority of seating outside.
The menu is built around chocolate babka, Bakey's signature item, alongside freshly baked pastries, an all-day breakfast program, and specialty coffee. The café operates under kosher certification. Per the brand's Instagram, the Hallandale Beach location carries the same baking philosophy Scheft established at Breads Bakery, which built his profile in the New York market.
The brand's Instagram describes Bakey as one of Boston's most talked-about bakeries, though the source does not specify when the Boston concept opened or how many locations currently operate. A street address for the Hallandale Beach café, operating hours, and a confirmed launch date beyond the Instagram post were not available at press time.
Whether Scheft has additional South Florida locations in the pipeline was not addressed in the source. The Hallandale Beach opening is the format's first test in the Florida market.
