One of those spots that leaves you wishing it was in your neighborhood. Counter service with kind, friendly staff. We tried the ham and cheese croissant, it was simple and delightful. My daughter had a waffle with 2 eggs on the side. Hubby tried the bagel with avo and ham. I had a latte and Hubby chose the Chai. Their chai is spectacular, full of spice and not sweet. read more

Coffee was great. Sandwiches were fresh and delicious. Wish there was more seating but it seemed like most people were there to get fresh bread and go, rather than stay and eat like us. read more

Honestly I was disappointed with my experience! The counter is a bit overwhelming. Lots of beautiful patties though! I got an almond crossiant and cinnamon roll. The crossiant was not great, so little almond flavor. The cinnamon roll was a very flaky and tasty treat. Biggest disappointment was that they couldn't heat my pastries, which seemed so odd to me!! read more

The lady working hates her job, I was in such a good mood until I had to interact with this individual, foods great tho

Oh my gosh! Wow! We visited "Bread' Cafe's" old town location, on 8th Avenue this morning. We wanted coffee and a little something sweet, The gentleman behind the counter was friendly and when asked, offered a brief description on all of the morning's pastries. My husband and I each ordered a "Cheese Danish," and as an afterthought he ordered an Oatmeal Date Cookie, and I an Orange Ginger Scone, to go, along with two large simply brewed coffees with generous cream, as requested. Less than $20 and Oh My Goodness, so delicious! In fact, so good that Terry went back in and ordered two more cheese danishes to take back to our self catering BnB, for another day! Definitely worth the visit. Great coffee and amazingly delicious pastries! I'd love to try their Bread sometime! Thank-you for being so very accommodating! read more

3.5 stars. Chocolate chip cookie was too crispy and dry for me. I like that there were lots of chocolate chips, but the crispy dry texture just wasn't for me. It's quite cheap though (coming from DC, I liked the cheap prices around here!). The salami sandwich was good and flavorful though--4 stars for that one. read more

Stopped in for a pastry and coffee this morning and have been sour ever since. Bread has been our go-to for pastries and sandwiches for years and we have always been excited and delighted. Today our coffee was alright but our apple turnovers were subpar...think of what you get at the grocery store. They were smooshed flat and were lacking in flavor (where's the apple?). I hope our next visit isn't this disappointing and it was just an off day. Bread is usually a must when we are in town so hopefully it was just a fluke. read more

Pro Tip: I'd suggest arriving earlier in the day for the freshest items. I arrived at 2:30 - maybe it's the way they bake their cookies but my "chocolate gulch" and "sow your oats" cookies were too crispy-dry for my liking, although they had a good flavor. Also my pre-made mozzarella sandwich bread was soggy but I ate it for dinner so that's on me. They told me if you are arriving late in the day and call ahead they will make you a fresh sandwich closer to your arrival time - score! On the bright side the olive bread was 100% delicious and we enjoyed it over several meals at home. The young lady behind the counter was super friendly. They sell a special whole bean (not ground) Durango Coffee Company "bread house blend" we look forward to trying. We would give this place a second chance for sure and hope you enjoy your goodies! read more

Best scones in AMERICA !!! Really excellent bread as well. The only downside is the employees!! They are pretentious and rude but totally worth it hahha just get your stuff and go!! read more

WE LOVE BREAD!!! This place is truly a gem and the prices are amazing for the great types of bread offered. Would definitely recommend the potato sage bread and rosemary bread, although all their breads are incredibly moist and soft, even days after buying. We frequent this place much, as whenever we are in town it is a first stop place. read more

So I got a croque madame, which isn't a sandwich I'm particularly fond of, but I knew this place was going to do it right, and they nailed it! The ham was clearly high quality, tender and delicate. The bread was exquisite and toasted so that it had a perfectly pleasing texture and crunch. The sweetness from the preserves was perfectly subtle; classy not overpowering. Truly one of the best breakfast sandwiches of any kind that have had! Can't wait to come back next time I'm in SW colorado read more

Bread is a longtime favorite from the time I lived in Durango. Now it's a must-stop whenever I'm visiting or driving through Durango.The breads, sweet treats and granola are superb. The crew is always friendly and helpful, a great benefit with so many choices! read more

man i love this place but today just wasn't the day it seems, worker gave rude stares and acted unprofessional because i was confused about their sign size and drink size difference. i tried saying thank you and he brushed me off. quite rude, and i hope i see him again to ask him what his problem was that day. unnecessary read more

Tried their salami sandwich, flavor is there but bread was tough, hard to bite, hard to swallow and sandwich was very greasy, not impressed Ham and cheese croissant was good, bread crispy from the parmesan Chocolate chip cookie: very thin and crispy. I prefer gooey cookie but thats a personal preference. Overall not impressed read more

Been going here for 12 years and have always been quite pleased. The past year however I've been quite disappointed several times. New staff members I'm assuming. Perhaps more training is needed. Last month my turkey sandwich was made with two end pieces of bread and was literally less than half its regular size and had very little turkey. This BLT pictured was gross. I first noticed the uncooked bacon (zoom in on the tomato picture and you will see) . Then I opened the sandwich and saw that every tomato was all wilted and the core/stem hadn't been removed. Plus the bun was burnt. Seriously! Come on! Still always very please with the pastry's, but your sandwich makers are horrible. I Still and will hopefully always love this bakery, but hope the quality doesn't continue to decline. On a side note: I will like to request that some breakfast options be added to the menu. Perhaps Bagel or croissant with egg, bacon/sausage and cheese. I know several loyal locals that would love this. read more

Delicious breads, sandwiches, blueberry danishes. Limited but available gluten free options. Day old sandwiches are the best bang for your buck if you aren't picky with your flavors - I had the mozzarella and it was super yummy! No posted menu but browsing the bread racks before jumping in line seems acceptable. They support Planned Parenthood but they aren't overrun with political stickers or signs. Friendly staff! E.g. I bought a gluten free banana bread for a friend and then remembered they needed new coffee beans - so 15 minutes after purchasing (I was enjoying my Danish on a bench outside) I returned the bread in exchange for a special Bread blend from Durango Coffee Company - no hold ups or problems encountered! Bread bakes their items here and then drops off items at their downtown location which has a slightly smaller selection (but their downtown location has free wifi! And more seating). Minimal sitting outside - just a few benches, so it's more of a buy and head out sort of place. No wifi. Plenty of bicycle parking though! read more

Seems like this was a bad day for them because everything we had was subpar and didn't live up to the other reviews. We came early Sat morning. Every pastry we had was really dry (we had many: almond croissant, regular croissant, cream cheese danish, and cinnamon roll). Our quiche was cold and pretty bland. We also took home 3 cookies. The famous oat one was also really dry. I like crunchy cookies, but this was so baked it lost all moisture & definitely wasn't soft on the inside like some reviews said. The peanut butter cookie disintegrates upon biting, which made it feel like pb powder instead of a cookie. The gingerbread was okay, nothing amazing. Really disappointed! read more

After reading another review about sandwiches to go we knew we wanted to grab something. I had the time turkey sandwich and my husband had the Italian. Both were really good and hit the spot for lunch as we traveled to the Mesa Verda area for the day. We also had a ginger cookie that was fantastic. read more

Great cookies! Amazing bread! Helpful employees :) Not sure which cookie is the best so you ll have to get one of each! I also love grabbing a bag of their day old bread. read more

Coffee wasn't great, and our quiches were cold... also came out to be $22, and we regretted not going elsewhere for a larger, warmer breakfast. Not sure where the positive reviews are coming from, maybe other desserts? Logo and space was aesthetically pleasing, but food and coffee were both disappointing. read more

My boyfriend and I came by here to grab an easy lunch and coffee and we were blown away! The coffee was smooth, the cookies were incredible especially the chocolate coffee one, and the sandwiches were the show stopper! We got a pastrami and the ham and Brie sandwich both were perfect! The flavors were so defined and the homemade bread really brought it all together. Also the employees were kind and helpful! read more

The only reason I'm giving it 2 stars is for the ambience. Overpriced, average (at best) waffle and green chile croissant. Syrup for the waffle was ice cold and there was barely any green chile on the green chile egg croissant. Eggs were luke warm. Went here based on the 4 star review on Yelp. Wouldn't go back. read more

Consistently incredible pastries, bread, and service over the decade that I've lived in durango.

Bread is a staple in Durango. If you don't go here at least once a week you are muy loco! Jen AMAZED me this weekend. A customer was a Fruit Loop and Jen still treat them with kindness. Their customer service is as exceptional as is the bread. When we visit from Montrose we have neighbors who place orders with us. Life is even better because they open shop downtown for lunch. Cannot say enough good things about this place! read more

Excellent bakery that makes excellent..... bread! Yup, their bread is all things good! But the scones.... Are to die for!

Yay for bread! We love getting loafs here each week (sliced is great), and they make one of the best scones I've ever had (honey nut)! Prices are reasonable and I really appreciate that since so many other places are outrageous with what they are charging for coffee- thanks for keeping it real Bread! read more

One of the best bakeries there ever was and the prices are damned good. The situation with tipping employees leaves a bad taste in my mouth, however. read more

Delish! Cookies are enormous and it tastes as if they use the highest quality ingredients, prices are great! They also have some outdoor eating area that has shade! Kids loved the place and they also have a deli. It's a place we will come again! read more

I hate to say this because I love this community and I want all the local businesses to succeed, but my experience with the new downtown Durango location of Bread was awful, and some feedback is in-order. The salami sandwich I had was tough, chewy, soggy, and stale. It was one of the worst sandwiches I've had. When I asked for some mayo to put on it, the employee told me that they don't have any at the downtown location because all the sandwiches are made elsewhere. During the time between when the sandwich was made (in some other location) and when I bought it at 11:45am, the bread got stale, the lettuce got soggy and wilted, and it was an overpriced and lousy sandwich. If you're going to offer sandwiches, make them within an hour of when you're going to sell them - it shouldn't be that hard. If it is too difficult to do that, don't offer sandwiches. I didn't try anything else, and I'm not inclined to return. But from looking around, it appeared that there isn't much selection at the downtown Durango location. I hope they improve so they get repeat business. Given the sandwich I just had, I won't be back there any time soon. read more

It's just OK. Let me repeat that: it's just OK. Yes it's better than the City Market bakery but everything here is bland and insipid. Their scones and muffins have only a hint of the flavor that you're buying them for. Their premade sandwiches sound great based on the ingredient list, but it's bland bland bland. They don't make French bread and I'm convinced they would suck at it, regardless. Stick with their olive loaf (good) and chocolate chip cookies (hard to screw those up). read more

if you want a hearty, presumably healthy, definitely not low calorie, oatmeal cookie, you can't go wrong at Bread in Durango. We took several on the road with us. My biggest regret is that we didn't get more and that we didn't try their other baked goods. Lunch there was good as well. Plus, they had wonderful cold brew coffee that was great with the cookie. read more

This place is awesome. We were in town for a long weekend of skiing, and a friend told us this was the place to go to grab sandwiches for a ski lunch. The place is pretty small, and signage not the best, but I think it's to keep it a locals secret. Seems like it's best to get there early. We had a tiny wait in line outside as they only let 2 parties in at a time due to covid. But they seemed well set up, and practiced all necessary safety protocols. They have a list of the special breads they bake every day of the week and small pastry counter with all the delicious looking goodies for the day, cookies, brownies, muffins... but we went for the sandwiches. Once in the store, off to the right, they have a display case of pre-made sandwiches. I'm not normally one for pre-made sandwiches because often times I get them and the lettuce and tomato have made the bread soggy and it just starts falling apart before you even get in your first bite. Let me tell you, these sandwiches were perfection! They had a number of different ones, maybe 5-6 kinds. Turkey and cranberry, BLT, pastrami, mozzarella, ham and cheese and maybe one more, a salami? Anyways, they are huge and delicious and served on their amazing bread. These things are so good, we went every morning, 3 days in a row to get them for our ski lunch. And yes, I ate that turkey one 3 days in a row, and every time was better than I remembered. The cranberry added a nice sweetness without it over powering the sandwich as a whole. Everyone else went for the BLT. Served on a huge roll, the bacon was delicious and thick cut and nicely smoked. And they serve coffee/espresso so it was the perfect stop for us to get our morning coffee and our lunch for later before heading up the mountain. I suggest getting there early bc I'm sure they sell out of those tasty sandos! I also got a mini loaf of a gluten free blueberry banana bread that was so satisfying. Prefect touch of sweetness, moist, and had great texture. I honestly can't say enough about this place. Thank you so much for feeding us your deliciousness! I just wish they had one here in San Diego! read more
