Saint Bread is a bakery in Seattle, in the U.S. state of Washington.[1]

Description

[edit]

Saint Bread is a bakery in Portage Bay, near the University of Washington.[2] The bakery has stained glass windows, outdoor picnic tables,[3] and a covered patio.[4][5] The menu includes pastries, toasts, burgers,[6] sandwiches,[7] salads, and grain bowls.[8][9][10] Cookies have included the "gochudoodle" (snickerdoodle with gochujang).[11] Pastries have included cardamom knots, chocolate croissants, and melonpan. Adele Chapin of Eater Seattle said the menu "spans French, Japanese, American, and Scandinavian traditions".[12] The bakery has brewed coffee from Proud Mary Coffee, which operates a cafe in Portland, Oregon.[13]

History

[edit]

Yasuaki Saito, Michael Sanders, and Randi Rachlow opened the bakery in a former boatyard in April 2021, in what used to be a machine shop operated by Jensen Motor Boat Company.[7]

In 2022, the business was among local bakeries participating in a bake sale benefitting abortion access.[14] Saint Bread announced plans to expand in 2023.[15]

Gabby Park was the pastry chef at Saint Bread.[16]

Reception

[edit]

Harry Cheadle included Saint Bread in Eater Seattle's 2023 list of the city's 16 "most perfect" bakeries.[6] The business was included in The New York Times' 2023 list of Seattle's 25 best restaurants,[17] and in 2024 was rated by Bon Appétit as one of the nine most creative bakeries in the United States.[18]
