Standard Baking Co.

Standard Baking Co. is an independently-owned and operated business that has been part of downtown Portland since 1995. Our intention has always been to make the best breads and pastries on-site daily for our friends, neighbors and community. Handcrafted and baked throughout the day in our 12-ton, stone deck oven, you’ll find slow-fermented French baguettes, hearty German Vollkornbrot, fragrant Focaccia, and our all-organic Miche, made from 100% sustainably grown, stone-ground whole grains sourced from local Maine farms. Hand-rolled croissants, brioche, and seasonal scones, are prepared in plain view in our open production bakery and often served still warm from our ovens. Everything we make embodies our commitment to artisanal methods, sustainably grown food and bringing joy to our community. The heart of our bakery is a small, dedicated group of hardworking bakers, retailers, office organizers, and drivers, who do their best each day to ensure that we've fulfilled our mission. We’re grateful to our amazing staff, loyal customers and the most supportive local community who allow us to do work that we love every day.
