A Neighborhood Institution

Since opening our doors on Brackett Street in Westbrook, The Baker's Bench has become a beloved destination for those who demand the finest in fresh-baked goods and artisan craftsmanship. Every morning, our bakers arrive before dawn to create the pastries, breads, and sandwiches that keep our community coming back.

We believe in doing one thing exceptionally well: baking with care, using quality ingredients, and treating each customer like family. Our croissants melt on your tongue. Our cream horns are perfection. Our sandwiches overflow with flavor. This isn't mass production—this is a baker's bench, where attention meets intention.

What We Offer

Pastries & Viennoiserie

From buttery croissants to delicate Danishes, our pastry selection changes daily. Chocolate croissants that melt in your mouth. Almond croissants that taste like clouds. Cinnamon buns that justify every calorie. And our cream horns? Simply perfection.

Artisan Breads & Loaves

Our farmers' bread has built a following. Crusty on the outside, tender within. Each loaf is shaped by hand and baked to golden perfection. The foundation of exceptional sandwiches, or the reason to sit down with butter and nothing else.

Gourmet Sandwiches

Built on our own exceptional bread, our sandwiches are a lesson in quality ingredients. BLT with crispy bacon. Pastrami on rye. Savory ham and cheese. Huge portions, careful assembly, bread that deserves to be noticed.

Sweet Indulgences

Eclairs. Bismarcks. Raspberry and cheese pastries. Our cases are filled with reasons to make today special. Nothing mass-produced. Nothing that hasn't been crafted with intention.

"When I want amazing pastries this is where I go. The croissants are melt in your mouth buttery and we loved both the Savory ham and cheese and the chocolate is the best around. We always add a few raspberry and cheese along with some Farmers bread."
