Russ & Daughters Cafe, nestled in New York City, holds a storied legacy as a purveyor of premium smoked fish, caviar, baked goods, and specialty foods. Since its inception in 1914, the Russ family has meticulously curated an authentic New York experience, maintaining tradition and taste from their iconic East Houston Street location for over a century.

Steeped in history, Russ & Daughters has transitioned through four generations, each adding a layer of familial dedication to the business. From Joel Russ's humble beginnings selling herring out of a barrel to the modern-day legacy stewarded by Josh Russ Tupper and Niki Russ Federman, the evolution of Russ & Daughters has been a testament to resilience and quality.

The opening of Russ & Daughters Cafe in 2014 marked a centennial celebration, offering a contemporary twist on timeless appetizing classics. Boasting a cozy ambiance and skilled salmon slicers, the cafe invites patrons to savor the essence of Russ & Daughters' heritage while indulging in a range of culinary delights, earning accolades from esteemed voices like The New York Times.
