I am looking for bread bakeries in the area.
I know of Cait & Abby's. Are there others in our neighbourhood?
btw - Cafe Monet bakes their own baguettes - awesome. |

The best bread is at Orange Sanitary Bakery. Check them out. |

Orange Sanitary is great but Panera Bread in Essex Green - West Orange or on Morris Tpke. in Springfield makes great bread too - and a lot of varieties. Personally, I trek over to Newark on 1st & Bloomfield Aves. to Calandra's Bakery. They have been there for YEARS and has got to be the best bakery around! |

Calandra's is good and you can buy 2-3 baguette varieties at Kings.
Also -- Freeman's fish market sells excellent bread - don't remember who the bakery is. |

The bread at Cranes Bakery is phenomenal. The Pane Pugliese is better than any bread at any bakery around here. I've been to Calandra's a few times. It's not as good (although a very different style) as the Pane Pugliese, IMO. And Cranes is a HECK of a lot closer to get to. |

At the Wine Library you can get bread from Sullivans Bakery in NY! It is incredible! Im an old time Colandras fan as well but now I only have to go to the Wine Library for incredible bread. (and cheese, and chorizo....) |

Thanks for the heads up Boomie, just to let you know the bread at Cranes is also from Sullivan Street Bakery. It's the best. |

I second Calandra's (there is a Fairfield location as well), but if you're in a hurry, Sanitary is the best.
I'll have to try the Wine Library after the above review, however! |

If you want great Italian bread go to Mia Famiglia in Millburn on Main Street, otherwise go directly Niccola in Montclair. |

New World catering and food boutique has some terrific breads as well. Their tahini tuna panini was out of this world!!!! Also, they have somebody making fantastic desserts that I was not expecting in town. |

Wine Library is also selling cheese now! They have Parmesean Reggiano (sp?) for $9.99 a pound. Great Price.
I go to Cranes for the Sullivan Street breads though - he has even ordered special stuff for me when I request it.
WE NEED AN ARTISANAL BAKERY (or a branch of one) IN TOWN! |

I think that Wine Library only carries bread on the weekends.
Mia Famiglia has great Italian bread and specialties.
Whole Foods has a decent assortment of breads.
Sonny Amsters in the Millburn Mall...but they are supposedly getting kicked out of their location soon.
