Pastries
Banana Chocolate Chip Loaf

Pumpkin Ginger Loaf
The pumpkin spice bread is our version of gingerbread. Made with pumpkin puree and a blend of warm, fragrant spices, such as ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. This bread's flavor is more spice than pumpkin and always a seasonal favorite! Sold by the slice, half loaf or whole loaf.

Simple and, oh so, satisfying. Fresh sweet butter and seedless raspberry jam slathered on a crunchy baguette. A traditional favorite and a real crowd pleaser.

We use the same delicious dough as our baguette to create a sandwich-ready size and shape. Our go-to bread for morning toast!

We stopped by Levain Bakery, a 30-year-old institution, and it definitely lives up to the hype. The cookies are perfectly baked—crispy on the outside yet warm and soft on the inside, with an amazing texture that makes each bite memorable. Their coffee is also worth mentioning—smooth, balanced, and pairs perfectly with the baked goods. My wife absolutely loved it as well. A must-visit if you’re in the area!
