Give Thanks

The Give Thanks Bakery and Cafe is a little jewel tucked into downtown Rochester. It is next to Main Street Billiards but you have to enter the bakery through the back, facing the parking lot behind Main Street.

We get all of our bread here for the big holidays (Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas). Their daily bread selection is extensive and totally insane. You will have trouble choosing just one loaf. Get there early, their bread sells out almost every day. The folks that work here could not be nicer. The gal told me last time after staring at me intently that I had a nice face. I am not sure if she was working some kind of mind control to get me to buy more bread, but it worked.

They also sell European butter which is a super yummy to slather onto their rolls and bread. Do not miss their Almond Croissants, they are insanely good. Don't even think about the amount of calories that you are throwing down your gullet, you probably don't want to know. They also have a really cute selection of kids cookies, petit fours, torts, and all kinds of pastries that are too pretty to eat (but you will somehow manage it anyway!).

The Give Thanks Bakery and Cafe is located at 225 South Main Street.
