Jewish Life

Bubbe (Yiddish for grandma) knows best when it comes to dispensing life advice with warmth, love, and a dose of chutzpah. If you’re facing a dilemma, have something weighing on your mind, or are just looking for a soft-as-a-matzah-ball shoulder to rest your keppe (head), our team of real-life bubbes can help. 

Ahead of the High Holidays—a time when many are thinking about how they want to show up in the new year—Sixth & I’s bubbe brigade will be popping up around the city to offer timeless advice for problems big and small. Everyone is welcome to talk to a bubbe, whether you’re Jewish, Jew-ish, or simply a big fan of grandmothers. 

We promise they won’t pinch your cheeks, but they’ll probably call you bubbeleh (sweetie or darling).  

What Would Bubbe Do?® kicks off Friday, September 12 from 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm outside Sixth & I, ahead of Shabbat services. Stay tuned for more times and locations to be announced.
