our Story

Small batch, traditionally inspired breads and pastries. 
Each handmade with care.

The Bakery at 1871 started in 2022 in the kitchen of our Victorian era home. Inspired by the rich history surrounding us, we began baking small batch, traditionally inspired breads and pastries. Each handmade with care.

Before well-equipped home kitchens, bakehouses offered people a place to gather and bake bread in wood-fired ovens. After helping to keep the fire warm and sharing baking tools, they would carry the loaves on wooden planks back to their families and neighbors. These bake houses, and the food being made, were the heart of the community. We would like to carry on the tradition of caring in each small batch of baked goods that comes from our oven. From our home to yours.

We specialize in artisan breads, bagels and pastries. Every one is handmade in a small batch artisan process, most taking three days to complete. From our flour to our vanilla, we source and use only the highest quality ingredients. Then we bake fresh every morning.

We can’t wait to share our artisan baked goods with you.
