i got a "focaccia" and a "sourdough" loaf. both were incredibly dense and overly sweet, almost like cake. i would not call this sourdough. just because its made with a starter vs yeast doesn't make it a sourdough - sourdough should be airy. and sour. this tastes and feels like wonderbread. very disappointing.

Bought a loaf of banana pepper bread at the Findlay Market this past Saturday. Unfortunately the bread was not cooked inside at all and had to be thrown out.

Omg one of the BEST sandwiches I've had for a while. Breakfast sandwich with bacon was well worth the wait and something I'd go out of my way to get again next time I'm in town.

The sandwiches are great, but I have not been able to order one for a few months now, twice the panini station being unexpectedly closed before noon, and the other two times being told there would be a 2 hour wait for my order. The most recent time I went to just buy bread (since a sandwich was off the table) and stood by the register waiting to be served for quite awhile with no one noticing me. Eventually I just left without buying anything. I do really like this place, but it’s a bummer to see the service take such a huge hit.

The tomato foccacia was amazing!!

It was a very long wait ~40 minutes, and a very bad sandwich. We couldn’t finish the food. Will not come back.

I hate leaving negative reviews, but frankly... yikes. I got the focaccia, expecting a pillowy soft and chewy loaf but what I got was dense, dry, and halfway cooked. Flavors were alright, but otherwise it's hardly edible. Spent $15 on two loaves and would have much rather spent my money elsewhere.

got a breakfast sandwich a few days ago, thought the price was a bit much but then I got the sandwich. it was delicious and they don't skimp on the toppings. definitely recommend :-)

I got the jalopeno cheddar bread. I must have got a bad batch because the middle was still slightly doughy.The employees were very nice and I did eat some of the bread which tasted good.Maybe I’ll have to go back another day and get a better loaf but slightly disappointed so far.

Some of the best soft sourdough bread in Cincinnati. It's definitely different than a lot of the harder fresh breads you will find in town. If you like softer breads you should try them.

We were here on a busy Saturday morning and needed some fuel for the day. On a hunt for a breakfast sandwich, we saw Em's. The sandwich is around $9-11, which is hefty, but the quality of the ingredients was well worth it. To start, the bread? Amazing. The pesto sauce? It added such a tang and twist and really complimented the egg. The spicy and sweet bacon? We were obsessed with this part. It was spicy! But the combination of all the flavors really paired well. You could even taste the sharpness of the cheddar. We added avocado for some flair. 10/10.

Bread is great and stays fresh. Also can be frozen with little effect. And if you like the bread, try the cinnamon swirl. WOW.

My daughter lives near Findlay Market, so she is my dealer when it comes to supplying me with the tastiest bread I've ever had! We made French toast this morning with the sourdough bread and it was sooooo yummy. Best bread in the Nati!

Waited 45 minutes for avocado toast! They kept serving people that order way after us. I understand it's a small operation but figure out how to fulfill orders in the order in which they come in
