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.

Good to know
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.
