Bread By Us

About Bread By Us

Bread By Us opened at their new location on Smirle Avenue in January 2026, bringing their artisanal sourdough expertise to the Hintonburg neighborhood. This dedicated bakery focuses on the fundamentals: high-quality unbleached and untreated flours, traditional sourdough techniques, and daily fresh baking.

Each loaf is crafted with care, from focaccia and ciabatta buns to country sourdough and hearty whole wheat loaves. The bakery's commitment to quality over quantity means every batch receives the attention it deserves, resulting in bread with superior flavor, texture, and keeping quality.

Operating Wednesday through Sunday, Bread By Us has become a neighborhood favorite, with locals timing their visits to snag warm loaves fresh from the oven. The cozy shop atmosphere reflects the artisanal nature of the product—simple, authentic, and focused on the craft of bread-making.
