Starter is a neighborhood bakery crafting approachable, crave-worthy breads and pastries with an obsessive focus on freshness and technique. Freshly Baked Everyday, we combine time-honored fermentation, locally sourced ingredients, and small-batch recipes to deliver warm, flavorful goods that turn routine mornings into memorable moments. Whether grabbing a quick loaf or lingering over a pastry and coffee, Starter balances consistent quality with the welcoming charm of a true community bakery.

At Starter we prize honesty in our ingredients, curiosity in our craft, and generosity in how we share the results: simple, transparent recipes made better through skill and kindness. We believe in treating our team and suppliers like partners, investing time in fermentation and technique so customers get the best possible bite, and creating a welcoming corner of the neighborhood where strangers become regulars. Those commitments guide every decision—from ingredient sourcing to how we greet people at the case—so our bakery feels reliable, spirited, and a little bit restorative.
