Columbus Baking Company

I wish I lived closer. I grew up in Syracuse and actually was neighbors with the owners of Columbus Bakery. Now we are talking back in the 60’s. Great people. Use to go over everyday for a cup of coffee. And I was 4. My mom would tell us stories about them when we lived next door to them. I tell my wife all the time about the bread. It would be worth doing a road trip to just get a good fix. There is no substitute for the bread. Keep doing a great job.

It's the best Italian bread I've tried here so far. Simple. Straight forward. Real. No preservatives taste. You don't need anything else because the flavor is perfect. I missed this taste and texture so much. I didn't think I could shed tears on a piece of bread, but here I am. The first time since I came to Syracuse I tasted a real good bread.

Going here is like flying back to ITALY. Old world real bread. Making bread with high gluten spring wheat soft inside crispy outside. Inexpensive & delicious. Boule, long loaves double baked crispy crust and flat breads.
