Back in April, Welcome2TheBronx broke this exclusive story that Zaro’s is coming back to Parkchester after closing its store in 2015. Now, Pix11 news has picked up the story (4 months later) so check it out below!
April 8, 2017
Several weeks ago we received a tip that Zaro’s Bakery was returning to Parkchester after over a year since it closed down their iconic location.
For over 56 years Zaro’s served the Parkchester and Bronx community until an increase in rent forced them to close.
The tipster said they were reopening at a nearby location.
We called Zaro’s to confirm their reopening several weeks ago and an employee laughed and said “maybe” but we’d have to speak to someone else regarding it.
This past Saturday we received an email from their PR department declining an interview at this time.
Although we didn’t get official confirmation from Zaro’s, we’re pretty confident that indeed they are returning (hey, dreams do come true!) but until then, we’ll be patiently awaiting any official announcement.
