A bakery that specializes in loaves has a different schedule and menu than a pastry shop. Every bakery here has bread, sourdough or artisan in its name or category, or names bread on its own website.

Reserve your loaf. Small bread bakeries bake a limited number of loaves each day, and sourdough often sells out; some take pre-orders or offer weekly pickup.

Common questions

What is sourdough?

Sourdough is bread leavened with a fermented flour-and-water starter instead of commercial yeast, which gives it a tangy flavor and chewy crust.

How long does fresh bread keep?

Crusty artisan loaves are best the day they are baked; after that they keep in a paper bag for a day or two, or freeze well sliced.
