About Old Mission Bakery

At Old Mission Bakery, we believe in keeping things local, wholesome, and full of flavor. As a proudly family-owned and operated bakery, we source the finest local ingredients to create artisan bread that is as good for the community as it is for the soul.

Our breads are made with care, using healthy, natural ingredients like olive oil and unrefined sugars such as honey, maple syrup, and molasses for a touch of sweetness. Each loaf is lovingly baked in cast iron, giving it a distinct crust, rich texture, and the unmistakable warmth of home-baked quality.

Customer favorites include our Creole-inspired Zydeco Bread—perfect for sandwiches—and the sweet, indulgent Cinful Swirl. Can’t make it to the bakery? We’re proud to offer shipping!

wanted the cinnamon swirl but not made on Mondays. gal was super nice and said that since they make it a few times a week to call in and they would set aside a loaf:). yes it's a lil pricey at $7.75+ a loaf but if I wanted a good French toast bread I know where to go . ty!

Old Mission Bakery has the best bread in Traverse City! Every loaf is fresh, flavorful, and baked to perfection. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into each batch. As a family owned bakery, they put heart into everything they do, and it shows. Whether you’re looking for a classic multigrain loaf or something unique like cinnamon swirl, this bakery delivers every time. If you love great bread, this is the place to go! Trust me.

Family owned and operated using fresh ingredients to make incredible breads and treats. We have been going since we found them when getting married in TC 7 years ago and were looking for a local brunch treat and found their cinnamon rolls. They are incredible, and you cannot go wrong with any of the bread options either. Zydeco bread is our favorite, esp for BLTs or grilled cheese. Always delicious and consistent - our first and last stop anytime we are in the area!

I highly recommend Old Mission Bakery! Their bread is delicious and fresh. I particularly like the Cinful Swirl, and the Drunken Reuben. They have half and full loaves. You can have them ship it to your home, or stop in their store (M-F). I’ve also purchased their bread as gifts for family & friends and ship it to them. If I could give them 10 stars here, I would!

Thank you for making such a great loaf of bread. As a customer, I truly appreciate you using high-quality ingredients and healthier oils as well. I know the price point needs to be higher for these quality ingredients. I wish all producers could follow your lead. Happy, satisfied customer!
