Do not miss a chance to get a sub from this wonderful shop attached to the bakery here. The ladies inside were very friendly and welcoming and the sandwich was a 10 out of 10. Fresh bread, fresh ingredients, I even watched her snip a few basil leaves off their basil plant in the front window for my sub. Just a really fantastic little shop. Be aware it is cash only but please don't let that stop you.

Stopped for subs after people saying they were amazing. Will not get another one. The cheese was sliced so thin you could see through it. The meat was also cut thin which is why the sandwich was not good. No real taste for lack of ingredients. However the bread was excellent.

Best Italian subs on their fresh made bread. Great mini focaccia for a $1. Really nice people.

I have been passing this place by for years and never stopped. Now I'm kicking myself for never stopping. The subs here are amazing. The Michele special tastes phenomenal! One of my top 10 sandwiches I've ever had. You will not be disappointed. The bread is fresh baked in house. Panzerotti are also available. Only cheese though. Those are super good. They also have cookies, chips and pop. Don't forget to pick up some focaccia bread while you're there. Delicious! Get here as soon as possible!!!

Bread factory. Friendliest staff and good prices on fresh bread. Hard rolls, italian breads and long french baguettes.
Delicious old fashioned sub! My kids devoured them.... bread is old school fantastic! The ladies behind the counter are genuinely PHENOMENAL! We don't live near but will make this trip more frequently.

Helemaal top deze plek. Wat een leuke vrouw. Naast de gekochte Michele’s Special werden we bedolven onder de extra broden en een candybar toe. Echt een must om even een bezoekje te brengen.

Recently visited Michele Baking Co. and was extremely disappointed to find out that they only accept cash as payment. This inconvenience caused me a lot of frustration as I had leave the restaurant to find an ATM in order to pay for my meal. Not only did this disrupt my dining experience, but it also wasted valuable time and energy. I highly recommend Michele Baking Co. to consider accepting other forms of payment for the convenience of their customers. Overall, my experience was overshadowed by the inconvenience of their cash-only policy."
Best backers around! I highly recommend their sandwiches

This building from the outside can be a little intimidating from the outside because it just looks like a factory, but it is definitely worth stopping for some fresh bread and sandwiches. Just pull in the front parking lot (North side) and walk in. The prices are like stepping back in time to the 80's with everything being super affordable.The sandwiches here are bigger, fresher, and cheaper than any of the chain sandwich shops. Not the mention the customer service is some of the friendliest I have encountered in literally years.If you drive past this place to go somewhere else for a sandwich, you are doing yourself a huge disservice.

Stopped in here and didn't know what to expect. Elderly Italian lady greeted me, so nice and friendly! Got a 6-in Italian sub and a panzerotti. The sub was larger than 6 in, quality meat, a nice tasting dressing and not all the other stuff they throw on at other places, like lettuce and tomatoes and whatever else. Simple and perfect.I say this with pretty good knowledge of all the popular Italian sub places in the area. I have lived in the neighborhood all my life.Since it was my first time here she also threw in a couple of loaves of bread for free, a very nice gesture. I will be back.

I went here after hearing great things about their service and baked goods. I visited just before lunchtime on a Thursday and there were 2 customers in front of me. The workers at the counter seemed confused and disorganized. There was nothing showing what kind of bread was available or prices. I asked for a baguette and a small foccacia and the young man bagging my items used his bare hands to handle them and also take my cash payment. I was charged $2 and was given an extra baguette which was a great deal and very generous. The items I purchased were okay, but certainly not the best in the area. Based on my first impression, I won't be going back.
Parking: Small parking lot right next to the entrance.
