I've been popping in and out of this place for almost a decade now. Great bread and cookies. It's a small store where everything is right there when you enter, so there's not much to say about it. The service is always good, you can ask for suggestions depending on what you intend to have with the bread, and that's a stamp-off card (one for bread and one for treats). It must be mentioned that this place is resilient. They kept up operations even after someone drove through the front window. I'm sure that's one of the last things they expected to ever have to weather (aside from a pandemic), but they've kept on going.

Visited out of the whim yesterday for the first time. Absolutely stellar swiss peppercorn. The employees were very helpful, and the couple of baked goods we got were top notch as well. I'm going to have a hard time purchasing bread anywhere else from now on, and I live 25 minutes away 😂. …

This place will be closed until August 14th so the employees can take a vacation! Who does that for their employees! What's left in the shop is being sold today, plus a free pastry, cookie, or whichever is left. I bought a favorite Honey Whole Wheat, and yes, they slice the bread for you. They also have jams for sale and fresh baked buns for burgers. I hope you'll stop by when they open again! You'll be greeted with happy employees.

Bought a loaf of their bread at another location and decided to go to the Breadsmith Bakery. Bought a loaf of Cherry Walnut, Swirled Rye, and a loaf of Cinnamon Swirl. Got one of the BEST Brownies we've ever had! It's an awesome shop for homemade breads and treats. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A real gem. A great local bakery with solid regular items (baguette, italian and french loaves, ryes) and special items around holidays. All are well (and locally) made. In addition, the owners/proprietors are friendly and knowledgeable.

I stopped in for the first time on Saturday afternoon. I bought two loaves of bread (cinnamon swirl & espresso chocolate chip) and two goodies - a peanut butter cookie and an almondine - I should NOT have done that, I should not have bought just one, I should have bought them ALL! They were amazing. The cookie and the breads are also fabulous! The cinnamon swirl makes AMAZING French toast! The owner gave me a tip of putting it in the freezer for about 15 minutes before slicing it and THEN making the French toast. It worked fantastically and it was SO good! The espresso chocolate chip just takes about 15 seconds in the microwave before you spread butter on it and eat it with your coffee. I don’t know why I have never stopped in here before, but now, this is where I will get my specialty breads. Unlike other places, he isn’t raising his prices through the roof, he is keeping the costs low for the customers. I also learned that all of the bread is made fresh each night and whatever doesn’t sell is donated to different organizations. This owner is someone that cares about his community and his customers and that was so refreshing to hear. It was great talking with him and the other employee that was there, I walked out of there feeling happy and excited to 1) try all my goodies, and 2) feeling like I had found a new treasure. I definitely recommend Breadsmith and will be going back as soon as we finish the what we have!

We stopped into Breadsmith while visiting family from out of town. We grabbed some pastries and banana bread for our family. We had a wonderful experience talking with the owner. As we were leaving after checking out he grabbed one of his most popular bread loaves (Michigan Cherry Walnut) and gave to us so we could try it. It was so incredibly nice. Will definitely be back when we return to Michigan!
