Visiting from Nashville and found this brand at Schnucks. Googled them to find out the companies story and love the idea of this place. The cinnamon rolls were great too!

I went to this location in Soulard Market. The smell of the bakery was incredible. The employees are extremely nice and helpful. My only complaint was that the double chocolate chip cookies were overcooked and difficult to chew; they were not edible. Maybe next time I go, things will be better.

I was a little disappointed in this bakery. The cinnamon rolls were just ok and the garlic herb brioche was a bit dry and just not very good. I will say that I did not go on a busy day, so I may give this place another try on a weekend.

Bought two packs of cinnamon rolls. All were hard and stale. I had to throw away everything I bought, if it's not fresh take it off the shelves.
Ran across their Bakery Store down at Soulard Farmers Market on Friday.For those of you who don't know anything about this bakery, you really need to know what you're supporting as it's so amazing. Their story touches the heart strings, along with their baked goods being so delicious and yet simple.Prices are so reasonable that you can buy several baked goods and know you're supporting the employees' wages.The White Cream cake was so yummy, not heavy at all, and the icing is perfect. Then, the Cherry Pies rolls were a first for me. By golly, they were scrumptious big time.There is hope in the bakingBridge Bread Bakery is a non-profit social enterprise in the city of St. Louis employs individuals experiencing homelessness and provides them with marketable skills and reliable employment.

I was unaware of their mission (which is amazing), and had purchased three desserts from them at the Soulard Farmer Market (against better judgement….I’m trying to lean out during this cutting phase?) and man, they were so good. I will be visiting them - and just running for another hour to burn the cal off ?
Delicious bread and pastries. Fantastic mission to help people experiencing homeless.
Friendly staff, great bread and coffee, great building and business history. It's definitely a place to visit on a weekend stroll down Cherokee.
Amazing baked good and reasonably priced. They also help the community and love their cause.
I LOVE this bakery's purpose the most. From their website: Bridge Bread Bakery is a non-profit social enterprise that provides supportive employment to people without safe and stable housing.Not only are they doing something meaningful for the community, but their baked goods are top notch. When my husband and I stopped in on a chilly Friday morning in December, the owner was giving a presentation to a roomful of kids and their parents.We enjoyed their cranberry orange and cinnamon apple rolls. My only wish is that I could have enjoyed it warm upon buying it. I'm confident they would have heated it up if I'd asked, but we were in and out quickly so as to be quiet for the presentation. I saved half of it so I could heat it up at home and it was well worth the wait.
