Loaf - Durham

Loaf offers genuine French pastries and bread from a rather unassuming spot in downtown Durham. Be sure to visit this charming bakery hidden in the heart of the town. The service is exceptional, and the food is truly heavenly. You'll feel as if you've been transported to Paris!

Loaf Bakery is truly outstanding! While their prices are slightly higher than other local bakeries, the quality of their bread is consistently excellent. The flavors, craftsmanship, and attention to detail in their French pastries make for an experience that is truly enjoyable. I can't recommend Loaf highly enough!

We're traveling in the Research Triangle cities from AL and came across Loaf while talking a walk in downtown. The bakery actually just closed for the day but when the owner saw us at the door, he came out to greet me and my husband, gave us 2 blueberry galettes for free and welcomed us back in the future. We were so appreciative of his kindness and the pasty was absolutely delicious. If you're ever in downtown Durham, this is the place to go!

Wow! We picked up cheese pepper bread, squash croissant, tomato tart, cinnamon bun, salted caramel bun, walnut maple bar....I'm blown away as we are eating them at home in southern VA. I think our favorite is the salted caramel bun. I've had pastries all over as I own a cafe.....this is the best I have had ...ever.

What a fantastic little bakery in downtown Durham! They've adapted wonderfully to the times, making ordering and curbside pickup a breeze. Every day, they offer flatbreads that cater to both vegans and meat lovers. Their pastries and sweet treats are absolutely delicious, and each one is definitely worth a try.
