We currently bake three varieties, most available in white or whole wheat flour:

Country Loaf ($15) — Our classic sourdough with a crispy crust and open, tangy crumb. The one that started it all.

Olive Loaf ($18) — Studded with briny olives throughout. Perfect with butter, cheese, or on its own.

Walnut & Cranberry Loaf ($18) — A sweet-savory combination with toasted walnuts and tart cranberries. Great for breakfast toast.

Our menu may rotate seasonally — check the Store page for this week's offerings.

We'd love to hear from you! For custom requests, large orders, or special occasions, please reach out to us and we'll do our best to accommodate.

Just four: quality flour, water, salt, and our own sourdough starter. That's it.

No preservatives, no additives, no commercial yeast.

Yes! Our sourdough is naturally vegan — just flour, water, salt, and our starter. The Walnut & Cranberry Loaf is also vegan. Note: Our Olive Loaf and other seasonal varieties may contain additional ingredients — check the product description on the Store page for details.

For the best experience:

Fresh (1–2 days): Cut the loaf in half and store it cut-side down on a cutting board. The exposed crumb acts as a natural seal and the crust stays crispy.

Longer storage (up to 3 months): Slice the bread and freeze it in an airtight plastic bag or freezer-safe container. Toast slices straight from the freezer — they come back to life beautifully.

⚠️ Avoid storing in a plastic bag at room temperature. This traps moisture and makes the crust soft and chewy instead of crispy.

Our sourdough naturally stays fresh longer than commercial bread thanks to the long fermentation process. Expect 1–2 days of peak freshness when stored properly (cut-side down on a board). After that, it makes incredible toast!

For longer keeping, slice and freeze.

Not currently — we're a small, one-person bakery and all orders are pickup only at our NW Austin location. We appreciate you making the trip!
