A Conshocken gem. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I have ordered pizza’s for celebrations, high school and college sporting events, and work events. Call the day before. Their design stencils are a hit. Love the fact that generation of family are working there. Yesterday’s 3 sheets of pizza were gone in no time.

We go once a week at minimum to get fresh bread or tomato pie. Everyone who works there shows great kindness to my children. The baked goods are so reasonably priced especially for the quality. This is a neighborhood gem.Kid-friendliness: They give my kids a free dinner roll sometimes which is so kind of them.

When we moved to PA, we decided to try all the local traditional foods. Couldn't understand or get behind the tomato pie thing until trying this one. They carry it at a local market by me. I actually could do this over traditional pizza any day!

Great rolls and deserts. Opens super early. Call ahead for large orders and it will be ready when you arrive.

My family is OBSESSED with this bakery. We stop by about every three weeks, buy a dozen hoagie rolls, eat the most delicious sandwiches for a day or two and then freeze the rest for fresh bread throughout the weeks. We basically stopped buying sandwich bread because of our visits and our meals are so much tastier! Conshy Italian Bakery is affordable, delicious, and it feels great to know we're supporting a long standing local business! We've also tried their burger buns and tomato pie, both delicious (the hoagie rolls have really won our hearts though). Contrary to some older reviews on Google and elsewhere, they do now take credit cards! The staff is also very helpful and always super quick. We know even if there's a bit of a line, we'll be in and out fast so we can always drop in our way home and grab our beloved bread.

I don't think bakeries should be reselling apple pies from Costco.Their breads and other desserts behind the counter are decent

The best rolls for making hoagies and steak sandwiches! The rye bread is also the best around! Everything is really so good!

I know these cookies aren't made there at the bakery, but my sister in law bought 2 containers of Cookies from Brooklyn. They were horrible. Stale and tasteless.

I had the opportunity to try this delicious tomato pie while at an event. I’m a huge fan! The freshness and flavor are amazing!

Best rolls and bread around for sandwiches and such!!! Used for a recent party and everyone loved my wife's homemade from scratch meatballs and Conshy rolls of course!!! The roll can make or break a sandwich!!! Sandwiches were awesome!!!

I fought with myself to give this review a one star or two stars. The sauce on tomato pie was good but it was doughy and tasted like it sat a few days. I bought 4 Sfogliatella pastries and they were not crunchy and we're definitely old. The cannoli was tasteless. The baguette I bought was hallow feeling and not worth the money. I took a special trip to the bakery because I remembered the tomato pie was amazing many moons ago. It was a waste of gas and money. The one worker told me that the pastries are frozen and brought in from somewhere. So if you don't want par-baked pastries then skip them altogether. I also didn't like the way the one woman at the counter made inappropriate religious jokes and was rude to customers... the Philly attitude, I'm right, you're not. Im definitely never giving them another penny of money. Don't waste your time .

Originally a small river town on the Schuylkill River north of Philly, Conshohocken shifted from quaint to bustling suburb in the middle/late 20th Century as waves of city dwellers with a little money in their pockets sought a better family life by moving in all directions out of the urban core. This included the ethnic enclaves that had called the neighborhoods of the City of Brotherly Love their homes for more than a hundred years. Many remained on the old narrow streets, but younger generations wanting more space to grow, heard the call and moved outside the city's grasp, even if the older generations stayed put. Conshohocken Italian Bakery began in 1973, many decades after the founding of the inner city bakers like Sarcone's and Casia's. Their plant on Jones Street has expanded several times, but the recipes and authenticity of their products has never changed. Yelp Bro, Omar S. and I visited this landmark dough merchant as part of his exploration of Italian hoagie rolls and tomato pie, for his search for the Holy Grail - the apex methodology for baking the best at home rolls and TP in his San Diego kitchen. The factory was way more modern than the others in the city, but the center of the operation was the woman behind the counter accepting orders from walk in customers, and more so from telephone orders. This bakery does not accept orders any other way, so "Diane" was the key to the whole magilla. She was a mistress of ceremonies, with a light comedic touch and genuine love of the customer and business. Omar was really taken with their interaction. And, why not? She was the gatekeeper to some of the best Italian bread and accessories in the region. Turned out, their rolls had about a wonderful crispy crust and light textured innards. Just enough sugar to allow the sandwich/hoagie rolls to be delicious naked, or with shmear of butter. Only Sarcone's was its equal. Although Tomato Pies are a Philly Thing, and really not my favorite, Conshy Bakery had a damn good variant with a light sweet and garlic flavor in their sauce. As my family would say:"I could eat it...!" All their loaves looked and smelled great in the racks. Conshy Bakery was the biggest surprise of our five shop tour. Definitely deserves a visit when in the mood for awesome Italian rolls made with flour, salt, water, yeast, whey, cornstarch, soy/cottonseed oil, wheat flour Daren and dextrose arises. Yes, Sir! PS. They also have a large tray of Stock's Pound Cakes for your sweet tooth. Stocks is yet another famous Philly institution that produces the best heavenly moist pound cakes in the universe. That lemon iced brick is stupendous.
