There’s nothing like living in Buffalo, but there’s something pretty special about the fact that you can be in a more rural area within just a short amount of time. Unfortunately, with work and the obligations that come with a busy life, it can be difficult to take a moment to explore outside the city limits. That’s why we love this little bakery. One step inside and it’ll feel like you’ve gone to the country!
At first glance, Five Points Bakery just looks like a big city building.
Jane B / TripAdvisor Given that it’s technically IN the city, the rough first sight doesn’t surprise.
But, get a little closer and you’ll see how special it is.
Jeremy B / TripAdvisor What first looks like an imposing building becomes wood covered and inviting.
Walk inside and you’ll be greeted by the unmistakable smell of bread baking and coffee brewing.

While the freshly baked bread is great, it’s the Five Points Bakery commitment to sourcing locally produced ingredients that really makes this spot special.

You can walk in for a fresh one (our favorite option!), get them frozen for later, or pick up some that are unbaked to finish them yourself at home.

The loaves of bread baked daily are 100% whole grain, produced with local grains that have been stone-ground right at the bakery.
Five Points Bakery / Facebook The flour used in the bread is soaked for an entire day, making easier to digest, even if you’re sensitive to gluten. Each bread is blended with organic, local, and seasonal ingredients that don’t have any hormones or antibiotics. Then they’re hand formed and baked on stones to create the most hearty bread.
They even offer bags containing the ends of bread to ensure that nothing is wasted and giving you the opportunity to taste different varieties. For just $1!

We recommend the full experience, but if you can’t make it into the bakery, look for them at local farmers’ markets throughout the area.
