From South St to Dupont Circle - Boulted Bread’s new home is just a few blocks away from its original location where all the baked goodness began in 2014. The reason for the relo? More space!
This adaptive re-use project transformed an existing 4,600 sq ft warehouse building into a bakery and cafe retail space. One of the primary design goals was maintaining Boulted’s ingrained family and friends vibe.
A 30-foot counter built from reclaimed lumber separates the baking from the seating, and showcases the day’s baked treats (croissants, pinwheels, and bialys to name a few). Behind the counter you’ll find a large, handmade bread rack presenting the day’s loaves. As on South St, the new location contains an enclosed mill room supporting the creation of in-house milled flour - with the capacity to produce more of it! Similarly, the new oven can bake up to 120 loaves at one time (previously only ~36).
In front of the counter is a seating area of thrifted and vintage pieces that accommodates up to a couple dozen people - from friendly-faced regulars to newcomers alike. If you haven’t had a chance to stop by, go and see em! Open 7am-4pm Wed-Sun.
