Love their little pastries and kolaches. I've never had their fresh bread but I know they sell tons. It's always super busy on the weekends. Definitely try their chocolate croissant! read more

baguette a dissapointment, not the firm dense bread I prefer, baked goods standard fare

Wow. I've been looking for a bakery like this, and I'm so happy that I found it. I placed an order for next day pick-up. It was ready when I arrived. I ordered different breads and pastries. I think my favorite was the cheese danish... or was it the baguette... or the sourdough bread? I can't decide. Everything is so good. You can tell the workers love what they do, and you can taste their care and thoughtfulness in the food. I even bought some sourdough starter, which I am excited to try since my "home-born" batch is gone. If you are looking for a real artisanal bakery, this IS the place. I just wish I lived closer. read more

Simply the best bread in Houston! Sourdough spelt; Organic Einkorn and White Sourdough

Bread is delicious. They also have specialty coffee. I am told the cinnamon rolls are great but I am yet to make in time. They are made fresh each morning and they go fast. read more

Walking out of this place with fresh warm breads that smell better than me. I bought a loaf of brioche, a croissant and they taste exceptional. The staff and the owner are attentive and helpful. I would recommend to give them a call before hand to confirm open hours. read more

Artisana Bread - Brioche - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

Outstanding service and products. Since there is literally no oversight of phrases like "artisanal" or similar marketing terms, it's easy to get lost in false advertising. This place is the only one I know of in Houston who conducts the business of baking in a truly artisanal way. Great strait and enriched products - go check them out! read more

Having traveled throughout Europe for over a decade, some of my most memorable moments were buying freshly baked bread in the mornings for breakfast and eating them while I walked back to my accommodation because I just couldn't help myself. For years, I wished I could buy freshly baked bread in Houston that were like the ones in Europe. I guess I just never looked hard enough! Early on in the pandemic, I discovered the Urban Harvest Farmers Market and that's where I stumbled upon Artisana Bread. It was love at first taste! I can't adequately express how much joy I experienced the first time I bought a baguette from them and ate it as I walked to my car. It may sound silly but I get chocked up now just writing about it because it brought back so many amazing memories. It's one of those things you can't adequately put into words. Whether it's the croissants, baguettes, or the variety of artisan breads made from different flours, I have always been blown away by the quality of the bread. They have truly perfected this ancient craft and I'm so happy I found them! read more

Overall: Down to earth and reasonably priced bakery to grab and go. All the bread is great and coffee is delicious with personalized service. This bakery is fantastic. It smells like the bakeries I've frequented in Paris and Italy - doesn't smell like chemical cleaners, and doesn't smell greasy like most shops and bakeries in Houston... We tried the croissant, pain au chocolat, apricot pastry, and ham and Swiss croissant. All were delicious, buttery and flakey. Their lattes are wonderful to. Alex hooked us up and made mine at the perfect sweetness. Thanks Artisana! read more

Artisana Bread - Apricot pastry, butter croissant, pain au chocolat. All were wonderful! - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

Best bread in town! Hands down! You will not be able to find a better croissant. They mostly do wholesale and partly retails. I try to go there every weekend read more

Drove all the way over, on the quest for authentic French style baguette. Before the 25 minute drive we checked their website to make sure they were open and even called. There was not even a generic answering machine. I really wanted to like this place. My wife and I have yet to find a good baguette similar to ones found in Paris. The ones that can be used as a weapon if needed they are so hard and crunchy on the outside; pillowy cultured goodness inside. The perfect contradiction. However the only contradiction I had today was the communication of Atisana Bread. What a shame. read more

Delicious, local bakery. I love their chocolate almond croissants and muffins, but they have a big assortment of pastries in the morning, as well as coffee. The inside is small but very clean. They also sell baked breads. read more

If you're looking for a FRENCH baguette, this is THE only place. I've spent a lot of time in France and have never been able to find anything even close. I sincerely hope this place lasts. The location may be sub optimal but you can tell that the owner is a purist. Great products. I'll be back everyday for my daily baguette. read more

Artisana Bread - Yummy crusty baguette. - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

Having been raised in Europe, I've been searching for a baguette worthy of the calories in Houston for the last 15 years, and have finally found it. Nice crispy crust, soft center, not like all those dense, soft baguettes you get at Whole foods, Kroger, or central market. The owners are true bread artisans. This is a shop you would expect to see in a city with a big foodie culture like Portland OR, or San Francisco, The owner was delightful and her passion really shows. They had some great looking focaccia too with tomatoes that I'm going to try next time. read more

Artisana Bread - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

A friend brought me some of their baked goods recently. Very very good, even from the fridge the following day. I wanted to check it out for myself and try their coffee. Did just that, and took a few friends with me. Same reaction, fresh and very tasty. Latte was quite good as well. Also very friendly staff. Only comment is that they need to have a few cafe style tables inside otherwise it's just to-go only. Nothing wrong with to-go but people need more options plus, the more cars in the parking lot, the more people will come. read more

Bread heaven on Pinemont. I love the croissants plain, chocolate, or ham and cheese, all are perfection. Delicious French bread, but one of my favorite items are the small milk and salt rolls. Great dinner roll, also the perfect size for toddlers sandwiches. Wonderful lattes, truly in the European style. read more

What can I say about Artisana Bread? It is so good to have found a true European bakery in Houston. Been looking for bread like this in Texas, and during a visit to Houston I found the most heavenly bread I had tasted in years, , just like in France or Italy. Sweat bread with Belgium chocolate, so delicious, Rosemary Thyme bread , my favorite with my Kerry gold butter and french orange or apricot marmalade or an a sandwich with any cold cuts, vegetables grilled or toasted , so gooood. You just have to take my word for it. read more

Artisana Bread - My favorite, Delicioussssss. - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

We've been waiting to check out the bakery for a couple of weeks now, but every time we drove by they were already closed. Finally saw they put their shop hours up and HELLO, bread heaven! We only tried a few things (chocolate croissant, regular croissant, and bacon scone) but they definitely did not disappoint! The bread is so fluffy and yeasty, just the way I like it!! They only had batches of croissants, scones, and bagettes, which we were told, is typically what they do during the week. They save the loaves of bread for the weekend.. Guess where I'll be this weekend?? :) read more

Wonderful. Stopped in for an Americano and to quell my craving for a pain au chocolat croissant. Very nice, excellent selection of breads and such, friendly service, clean and very excellent food. Highly recommend. Having spent a little time in Paris where there are wonderful bakeries on every corner, Artisana is a welcome addition to my list of great places to get something good to eat. read more

We went there last week to try this bakery for the first time. We bought 2 frensh baguettes under the impression that we will get an authentic baguette but unfortunately it was not. The other patisseries were decent. read more

This place has some of the best bread I have ever tasted. They are not the cheapest, but quality is rarely cheap.

Whether it's a loaf of fresh bread or a delicious croissant you want to start off your morning, it is impossible to make a bad decision here! Everything is fresh, and I always ask the stuff for what they recommend when I am torn. read more

I buy bread here on a semi-regular basis. The olive loaf, French bread, cardamom pastries and croissants are solid bets. The holiday selections are also amazing and they also make good gifts. read more

This new bakery is great! The cinnamon monkey bread is gooey good. The baguette was perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy inside. They had some buttery rolls that were melt in your mouth. They had plenty of tasting options to get you hooked on their goods. Inventory was pretty low when we got there at 11:30 on a Friday, so get there early. I look forward to going back! read more

Absolutely outstanding! We were recently turned onto this place by a friend and we couldn't be more grateful. Despite the inconvenience, we've always gone to Central Market for our bread. That officially ends today, now that we have this wonderful bakery right in our neighborhood. Their freshly-baked breads and pastries are perfect. We look forward to many more carb-fests powered by Artisana Bread. read more

There is no other place like this in Houston. Wonderful espresso drinks made to perfection every time and a wide selection of outstanding pastries and artesian breads. After having lived in France for several months, one can truly appreciate an exceptional croissant. The almond croissant at Artisana had me at hello. To die for! The staff is super friendly and helpful, the prices are extremely reasonable and the quality is superb. read more

Rosemary is such a talented baker!! I love the hearty Scottish oat and wheat or the Italian whole wheat with honey. The whole wheat sunflower flax is also great. For a gorgeous bread for toasting or at a meal, the semolina is wonderful. Both are fabulous sandwich breads. I've been a huge fan of her booth at the Urban Harvest Eastside Farmers Market for years. I've tried all of her breads so far and enjoyed all of them. So great to see she has her own shop now. Just wait for Christmas - the home made panettone is amazing!! read more

Authentic French bakery right in your backyard! I am partial to the baguette and also the ham&cheese croissant. Also everyone is really friendly. If only she would bake Turkish Simit bread I would be in heaven! read more

Fresh, tasty and irresistible baked goods and treats. You will not truly know Mmm and Yumm until you try their monkey bread or the rosemary - thyme loaf. My boys cannot get enough of their ham and cheese croissants. Welcoming owner, very friendly and patient staff, convenient location. Win and win read more

They will be providing the baked goods in our coffee shop and I am extra excited!!

This is a authentic French Bakery & Pastry place you dont want to miss, Rose Marie is the Owner, she's very nice...awesome service !!!

We tried kolaches, almond croissant and jalapeño cheese biscuits. These tasted a day old. Maybe we caught them on a bad day?

Stumbled into this place, glad I did. Happy and surprised that a place like this is in N Hou/GOOF. Great bread, quality ingredients, good, friendly service. Thank you!! read more

The best traditional bread. Very nice place. The best bread for Vietnamese Banh Mi. Love it!

I'm a huge fan of Artisana Bread, previously at the Urban Harvest Eastside Farmers Market, and can't wait to visit the new shop location now that it's open! The owner truly loves and cares about what she does, and it definitely shows. Everyone who has tasted the things I've gotten from Artisana RAVES about the quality and wonderful home-grown texture and flavor of everything they make. Definitely worth a visit to stock up, and the breads freeze well also! I get some when I visit the Houston area and bring it back home with me -- always nice to have a fantastic loaf of bread or a few baguettes to warm up to make a special meal even moreso. read more

GREAT BAKERY!!!! This place is a storefront business that creates excellent European style baguettes and baked goods. I have yet to be disappointed. Located off the beaten path in a transitional strip mall. No seating . Try to get there early because they seem to sell out of a lot of items and close by 1pm. Great coffee too! read more

A friend from work brought in some croussoints from this place, and they were awesome. So my wife stopped by one day for a few baguettes. She ended up coming home with an olive loaf and their wheat loaf. They were rediculously good. This place reminds me of the bakeries that I've visited in Europe; however, I've never had a loaf as good as the olive loaf from Artisana. I'm looking forward to trying some of their pastries... read more

I'm so excited to find this fantastic new bakery on Pinemont between Ella and Shepard. The baguettes taste like they were made in Paris. Rolls, pastries and cookies all terrific It feels like a neighborhood bakery in Europe, with a friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. Make sure to get there early as it closes at 1 pm. read more
