I love this place. It's hidden away in the not-so-accessible part of Cambridge and it requires a trip to this area, but it's so worth it! At 11 AM they bring out the flatbread pizzas and they're delicious!!! The Tomato feta cheese one is really light and tasty. The chocolate crust song that also made me. read more

I live next door to this place. It is so fresh. They have all types of bread. My husband likes the chocolate croissant. I prefer the almond one but honestly both are amazing. They even have flatbread pizzas. I would definitely suggest popping by. read more

Iggy's breads are amazing. The Khorasan (formerly Kamut) is my favorite. It keeps fresh for an amazing amount of time, more than any of their other breads I tried. But don't even think about buying their bagels. These are not bagels, but circular bread with a hole and stuff on them. I will not dock them 1 star for them, but if you know what real New York bagels are - this ain't them. Go to Wicked Bagels in Lexington for those. read more

Great selection of freshly baked goods, I always leave with some 7 grain sliced. Toast it up and some salted Kerry gold will bring you to Heaven. read more

The best! Staff is so helpful. Everything is always so fresh! The pecan cookies are amazing! All the breads are fantastic

First time walking in this restaurant, very impressed with the customer service and especially the food, if you want healthy food at a good price and excellent pizza this place is the best read more

Going to Iggy's actual bread bakery on Fawcett st. is an entirely different experience from just buying a loaf of bread in a store. I bought a wonderful loaf of bread and had an amazing mozzarella and tomato sandwich. So much fresh bakery items to choose from. Its the best. read more

Love that place! How simple is that?! Great bread and buns and all their bakery products hands up, the best! We come and get their bread couple times a week and we were never disappointed. If you come around 10 am you can get amazing ciabatta bread hot from the oven. Also girls working there so nice and always attentive and polite. Keep up with a great work read more

Best bread in the world! I've been coming here since I was little and I've been coming here with my family every week (please don't judge :D). Really cheap prices for really good bread! I would recommend getting their ciabatta and their french rolls (great for kids). They sell a variety of breads form raisin-pecan to really good bread pudding! Their bagels are a bit chewy, but they taste really good. If you are in the mood for great bread or want a fresh bagel, I highly recommend that you come here. read more

I'm kind of stunned by the other WOW reviews of Iggy's. It's a cult with no justification. The basic breads are good, if dry, but their croissants, brioche and other pastries are just meh. Really dry, not a ton of taste, no buttery lushness that melts in the mouth. If you've ever had a real french croissant you would toss theirs instantly. The flatbread pizzas are good if hot, but bland once at room temp - which happens fast. A disappointment not worth the drive. read more

Even though it is hard to find because it is stuck back among warehouses it still gets a rather steady stream of customers. The bread is very good here as well as the other baked goods. i really like their brioche Pullman. We enjoy the croissants as well although better can be had in Boston. read more

We love iggy's bread and shop there every week but their management should pay attention to who they hire for work at the store. Today there was unbelievable traffic on Concord Ave and we were able to make it at the store 3 mins to 6 pm. The girl locked the door although she saw me, we showed her the time on hour phone indicating we still have 3 mins which is more than enough to buy loaf of bread. Unbelievable, so dissatisfied read more

I am currently on my quest to try everything Iggy's sells. It is already a family legend, and we bring their bagels with us everywhere we go. I would tell you what my favorite thing on the menu is, but then I would be worried that they would be sold out of it when I show up on Sundays, which they frequently are. Great breads and pastries! Also, Iggy's if you're reading, please add more cookies to your selection! For the little ones. :) read more

Why get Iggy's second hand from Whole Foods or wherever else you shop? Just go to the source and get it hot and fresh. As much as I love the breads at High Rise, they just do not compare to this Cambridge fixture. read more

Tis cool. Hard to find place, I had to make like 4 u-turns and a phone call before locating the target. anyways, I can report good pizza, decent pear slices, okay plum slices, pre-made exotic sammiches, empty wallet. The store is not like anything you'd expect. Kinda weird actually, more like a warehouse room than a store...aptly set up so they can pack/escape very quickly if there's a carbohydrate raid. read more

We have been customers of Iggy's since the Watertown days. The baked goods are excellent. Their sheet pizza is good sold by the slice. Baguettes, Francese Bread(Boule like), and sweet rolls will not disappoint. A little tough to find but worth the trip. Enjoy. read more

True conversation in the car last weekend between me and my husband: ---Mmmmmmmmmmmmm! I'm so glad it's Saturday. I got out of bed just to have this bagel. [examines bagel totally and completely encrusted with different kinds of seeds]. --I know. It's like they bought too many seeds and were trying to stick as many as humanely possible on here just to get rid of them. --I don't know how I existed before Iggy's. --It's hard to eat and drive--I might choke on this bagel. But, what a way to go--eating an Iggy's bagel. That would be great. read more

After hearing the good things about them, I decided to give Iggy's croissants "fresh from the oven" a try this morning by making the drive to their facility in the industrial park in Cambridge. Unfortunately, they had no fresh croissant ready and no prospect of any in the immediate future. Oddly, I was offered day-old mini croissants as a substitution. I passed. read more

The bakery is lost in an semi-industrial zone in West Cambridge but it's well worth the trip. Their french style croissants would make most any bakery owner in France jealous. Great breads, pizza slices, etc. Very concerned about using local products when possible as well as organic products. Not dirt cheap but not overpriced either considering the quality and the exclusive use of organic products. read more

Love love love this place! So glad we are close by! I love being able to buy the brioche rolls in singles. The rustic sourdough is our favorite. Always so fresh. Has a nice crust and it's so soft inside! Staff is always friendly, and they always give away samples... can't beat that! read more

iggy's bread is the closest i've found to real german bread. having spend all my teenage years growing up in germany, my standards for good bread make it impossible for me to really be impressed by most bakeries, but seriously, iggy's wins hands down around here. and not just for bread either, everything i've tried has been AWESOME. i often opt for the spelt bread, or the country sourdough. mmmm so good when fresh.... oh and a free little tip. if you want to keep your freshy baked bread from going stale after 24 hours, freeze it! bread defrosts relatively quickly, and you can always pop it in the toaster (not microwave) to speed things up. yay for fresh bread every day! read more

This is probably the best bakery I've been to in New England. I ate several items and thought they were all pretty good. They aren't as good as some of my favorite west coast bakeries, but I've come to expect that. The service was really good and they've got an awesome setup. Really happy I went and I'll go back sometime for sure. read more

Went to Iggy's with my co-workers during my first week on the job (work right around the corner, then a left right jog, go straight, then right again). I was utterly surprised to say the least, I couldn't believe there was a restaurant in the little industrial park, let alone a place that was so good! There are so many bread samples that I had to try every one, three times. I've only been once, but I had the salmon with cream cheese on the bagel and it was really good. I am told everything there is scrumptious as well, especially the croissants , definitely worth checking out. read more

I purchased Iggy's bread at a local farm (Wards Berry farm) and the quality and taste of this bread was delicious. This is the best choice for me and my family who recently decided to eat more plant based foods and breads that have less chemicals in them. read more

Does Iggy's really need reviews? Terrific bread and one of their specialties is, IMHO, the best loaf of bread in Boston (and lots of other places) -- the Francese, large or small -- bread that fights back! I recommend the unsliced version, so you can cut it lengthwise first (like a bagel) and then across, and get a big swath of crust on one side of each piece. Toast and soak with high-quality butter. Ummm...hmmmm! Or, melt extra-sharp cheddar cheese on it until brown. read more

We stopped by to grab a quick breakfast on our way to explore the city, and picked up their olive pizza, potato/red pepper pizza, sticky buns and a chocolate croissant. The potato pizza was ridiculously tasty, and the sticky buns with their pecan-toffee coating did not disappoint at all- rather redolent of Dominique "Mr. Cronut" Ansel's famous DKA pastries, although these were quite a bit denser. Service was efficient and the bakery very clean. They are extremely affordable to boot- our picnic basket of goodies added up to just $14 and change. And their bread display was oh-so-tantalizing- we decided we definitely need to become regulars after today! read more

Fresh bread made right here in Cambridge. I am a frequent here and certainly a huge fan!

12/30/07: We grabbed an iggy's french bread from fromaggio's kitchen and it was awesome! Baked to perfection, this bread stands well against the french breads I ate while living in Europe. Sweet and not too heavy, the crust wasn't too dry. read more

The second you enter Iggy's you are overwhelmed by the selection of sandwiches, pastries, pizza, and bread all laid out before you. Where to start? I have to just focus on making a few selections or else I'll be standing in the middle of the store thinking, "BUT I WANT ONE OF EVERYTHING! WHY DO I HAVE TO CHOOSE?!?" I love their mozzarella, basil and tomato sandwich, also their plum pastry thing. And the sodas are great too. Spindrift grapefruit is my fav! Everything is so fresh and tasty, and the staff is really understanding when you can't seem to decide. FYI, everything is takeout, there are no tables to sit. Three yums up! read more

Most delicious bread ever. I love driving here for some fresh bread/croissants and coffee. I only wish they had a place to sit and eat! read more

Best bread ever. Love this place. There's nothing they do wrong. Love the wholesale beakers so very much.

I love stopping by Iggys any time I can. Everything they have is great. I recommend trying the fresh squeezed orange juice.

Yup, 5 stars, "as good as it gets". I absolutely love everything I've had from this place. Two words - "jous jous". Like little round croissants they are sooooo good. My favorites are the bagels, the raisin & nut rolls (w/ or w/out goat cheese), the parm toasts, the pizza, could go on and on. read more

The bread at this place was fine, but the bespectacled Asian guy behind the counter really needs some lessons in customer service...management, this guy is doing nothing to enhance your brand. I walked up to the counter and the guy didn't say anything, just tilted his head in a questioning way as though to say "what do you want". I asked for a loaf of rye. "Sliced?" he said. "yes, if you would" I replied. While he sliced I noticed the croissant, ham and cheese sandwiches in the case. "are those something that you can warm up for me?" I asked. The guy said nothing, just shook his head. No "oh, sorry we don't have a toaster" no nothing. Then I checked out, he didn't ask me if he could get me anything else, he didn't thank me, smile, or say another word. The whole experience was like I was some kind of imposition on his time. Oh, and if you're going to offer Croissant sandwiches with ham and cheese hours after you make them, get a frickin toaster oven. The sandwich as it was was pretty lame. Dude, you are not cut out for a career that involves interacting with clients of any kind. read more

Amazing breads and pastries! I have never left here without a tasty goodie! The food is quality and the price is very reasonable. There are always a number of staff ready to help you! Try the cranberry walnut rolls- must have! read more

Delicious pizza and sandwiches (all pre-prepared for take-out); yummy breads, croissants, etc. Only bummer is there is no place to sit and eat your food, but they don't advertise themselves as a restaurant, so that is fine. I LOVE the olive and leek pizza they sometimes have. read more

The breads are always very good - chewy and moist. Raisin pecan and cranberry pecan rolls are awesome. The pastries (croissants and the like) are cold and not very fresh-tasting by afternoon. I've never been there right at opening so maybe the freshness is there at 7am, don't know. Wished they offered the tuna sandwich more often. It's delicious but it's never there when I go on Sundays. read more

There is no better bread than Iggy's. I've tried dozens of other recommendations in New York, Boston, Western Mass, DC, and Durham. I've tried making my own. And there is no bread - no single loaf, no roll, no mouthful of deliciousness - better than Iggy's 7-Grain Pullman. How good is this bread? So good that when my gf spent a month in Boston she overnighted it to me. So good that we have a standing agreement that when either of us goes to any city with any store that sells Iggy's bread we must return with at least one loaf. So good that we have traveled light just so that we can fill our carry-ons with loaves upon loaves. Also delicious: everything else they have. Go there. Go there now. read more

Quite good, but not good enough for me to want to drive back here all the way since Clear Flour is better (even though it is more expensive). The croissant and stick bun...both quite good but they are not as flaky as ones from Clear Flour and you can really taste that difference. The ham and cheese sandwich was also good, though can't say it's among the best I have had. The spicy salami Sicilian pizza...good but not my favorite. Overall, it is quite good of a place but the quality isn't top notch enough to entice me to come all the way here since I don't live close by. This said, it is quite a bit better than a lot of the cafes/bakeries in the Boston area. I also wish they have seating. read more

The best bakery in the town by a mile. I chance upon iggy's roll about 2 years ago and since then I been hooked on their raisin pecan roll. They have the best rolls and most delicious cookies ( almond croissant cookies are super delicious). If you have some free time, grab a coffee and few of those cookies and maybe almond croissant and enjoy them on the side of scenic fresh pond. You might probably be able to enjoy it doubly with all those people jogging around the pond and trying to lose some pounds and while you will be stuffing your face with heavenly butterlicious goodness. read more
