Welcome Home
Dining · 1 location · Brooklyn: Bedford-Stuyvesant
A tiny Bed-Stuy bakery two friends opened with a Kickstarter campaign, now named the New York Times' 2025 Bakery of the Year. Co-founders Isa Steyer and Billy Wright still run the single storefront themselves, splitting tips evenly between kitchen and counter staff.
The Big Picture
Welcome Home is a single Bed-Stuy bakery owned outright by its two founders, funded at its 2024 launch by individual backers on Kickstarter rather than any investor or fund. As a young, single-location bakery open less than two years, it has little public labor or environmental track record beyond a clean search across every applicable database. Co-founders Isa Steyer and Billy Wright still run it day to day, with no outside investor or executive standing between them and the counter.
