The Bread Peddler 222 Capitol Way North, Olympia, WA 98501

"Imagine you live in the sunless, waterlogged hellscape that is Olympia, Washington. On one particularly wet and sunless day you find yourself in a cozy French bistro. There's only a single soup option, the daily special. You order it like a hero, or run away like a coward. A bowl plus fresh bread is only $6.75 anyways. You rejoice at the earnest and humble nature of this meal, and it transports you to a provincial life of simple choices and honest food. A chef brings it out, and you exchange small talk for a moment. The rain outside your window has now become like an old friend. Anyways, soup and bread yum!!"

"We love this place! Whenever I come home to visit my family in Olympia, we always go here in the mornings for their apple fritters and quiche. It's always a highlight of my trips home. It's always pretty busy inside but I can see why. The food is always sooo tasty and the staff is really nice too."

"Let me tell you, if you are looking for a delicious sourdough bread look no further. I went right at 7am when they opened. Got home and the bread was still warm enough to spread butter over and have a slice. Heaven. Definitely qualifies as an emotional support loaf. I'm also snacking on their chocolate cream cheese Danish. Absolutely delicious. Prices were very reasonable for the quality. It was a bit dark when I went in and I was having a hard time reading the bread types but 10/10 recommend."

"The best croissants and French pastries outside of France. Love, love, love everything about this place from the bread to the brunch."

"I've been looking for some quality bread. Google helped me locate this shop and I drove out to see what breads they offer. I was not disappointed it was worth the drive. I haven't been able to try the 3 loaves I purchased but I did eat the almond croissant in the parking lot and it is a high value experience. Such a good pastry. It would take to many words to describe. I would say this shop is a destination."
