    My wife came home with a 1/2 loaf of dill bread from our close friends. The bread was incredible. I just stopped in and tasted the beer bread and the vanilla egg bread. I was super excited to taste some homemade french toast in the morning and it did not disappoint. The vanilla egg bread should and does make an awesome breakfast. The staff is friendly and helpful. You can sample each of their breads to try before you buy. I dare you to try and not buy!

    Highly Recommend.

    All around great stuff.  The Italian loaf was nicely crisp on the outside and the rolls were perfectly doughy.

    The best part? The great selection of vegan foods, including a good chocolate chip/cherry muffin and an amazing chocolate chip cookie (one of the best I've ever had).  So glad this place offers vegan treats.

    I bake bread. I not only enjoy the process but I am pleased with the resulting loaves. My self pride diminished the first time I entered Breadsmith. How can the baker take the same ingredients that I do and create so many variations? I cannot turn my white flour into Italian, French, or country.

    If you want very good bread and want a huge selection this is your store. At Easter I went to every eastern European bakery for the sweet egg bread that must sit on the holiday table. Every place was sold out. As a last resort I went to Breadsmith and there were large loaves of Babka. Surprisingly, that loaf surpassed most of my past choices.

    The baker is a craftsman who succeeds in recreating the best of world breads. This bread makes every sandwich special and becomes a costar at every meal. Only the small sub type loaves have disappointed me, but then I have not found one good sub loaf anywhere as of yet. My banh mis suffer for lack of proper bread.

    I have recently been back to try the chocolate chip cookies again...much better this time around and the sugar cookies with the natural flavored fruit glaze are very good too...loved the orange glazed :)

    Five stars for the Brioche twirls and the French Peasant bread... only thing I haven't been thrilled with is the hoagie roll... a bit too sweet and missing that nice outside crispiness.

    I love a good artisan bakery. Located on a corner off Detroit Ave, Breadsmith offers free 15 minute parking on the street (by the meters). I sampled some of their bread offerings, all very good and went home with a baguette (which was not sampled). Sadly, the baguette was a little disappointing, really doughy and dense, more like Italian bread. For the price I could get a better baguette at Heinen's.

    I would come back, if only to try something else, but for now I could take it or leave it.

    The breads here are tops and fairly priced. I think the pastry/sweets are much, much better at Blackbird Bakery down the street though.

    There is nothing like fresh baked goodness. And no-one in the area delivers quite like Breadsmith does.

    For the same price of the "gourmet" bread in supermarkets, you can get the real deal here.

    We actually stopped and got some bottled juice and scones for breakfast, and picked up some monkey bread and a pan au rustique for later consumption.

    Everything was fresh and delicious!

    Love this place! The vegan chocolate cookies are awesome!  Love their bread...fresh and delicious. Today got the Greek Olive Focaccia w/cheese, YUM! The employees are super nice and extremely helpful.

    This place is the #1 reason why I can't lose weight.  Their breads are incredible.  The Power Bread is my favorite.  They don't feature it on their menu--it's only available every other Thursday.  And the Tuscan Herb and Granola breads are amazing.  They will let you sample all of the breads of the day.  They also have a nice selection of jams and other delicious goodies so if you need a quick gift it's a great grab.  And I am quickly racking up my 12 punches to get my free loaf of bread (and dare I say a larger size pair of pants...gulp).

    I ran across Breadsmith about the same time I ran across Crazy Mullets up the road....I'm a fan of micro bakeries and just had to stop and give it a go.   Has not disappointed yet.   I usually get a treat on my way home from Mullets and have tried the cookies, scones (yum), baguettes and other bread.   Heinen's, while good, still has a grocery bakery taste.....Breadsmith is the real deal artesian bakery.
