Our story

A bakerythat came home.

For years, 222 Artisan Bakery lived on Main Street. When the doors closed, the conversations didn’t. People asked about the bread at the farmer’s market, at the post office, in the line at the coffee shop down the road.

So we came back. A few blocks over, on St. Louis Street, the city kept our number. The starter is back in its jar. Sundays still smell like sourdough. Trevor still reads your email.

Boulangerie · Pâtisserie · Viennoiserie

Three French traditions,baked fresh at 222.

On the bread board, in the pastry case, and on the croissant rack. Every morning we work all three.

The classics, baked daily.

Rye, sourdough, brioche, multigrain. And like a true boulangerie, we have baguettes and more. Made fresh. We’ll slice it for you here.

Pâtisserie

Macarons, tarts, and the sweet stuff.

On certain days we make macarons. The pastry case rotates with fruit tarts, Danish, and the seasonal specials. Custom orders when time allows.

Layered dough, every morning.

Not just a French bakery. We layer the dough for croissants, brioche, and the cinnamon rolls regulars order before we even open.

The cafe

Drip, espresso,and a chai you’ll remember.

The beans come from down the road. Trevor roasts them at Plaid Coffee, his small roastery a few minutes away, and walks them over fresh. The pour is unhurried. The cup gets the time it needs.

Stay for the chai. People come back for it.
