About Kingston Bread + Bar
Located in the heart of Uptown Kingston, Kingston Bread + Bar is a vibrant bakery and café renowned for its handcrafted, naturally leavened breads and inventive sandwiches. Founded in 2017 as Kingston Bread Lab, this community favorite grew from modest beginnings—a home baking project with a dedicated following—into a bustling all-day venue. Initially popping up at Rough Draft Bar & Books, the successes of their pop-ups and popular bagel brunches led to the establishment of a more permanent location on North Front Street in 2020. Today, they operate from a revamped space on Broadway, which retains the location's historical essence with features like restored tin ceilings and exposed brick, while catering to a steady flow of locals with fresh breakfast and lunch options, as well as coffee and crafted beverages.
A commitment to quality in every loaf is at the core of Kingston Bread + Bar's operations. Each bread is made with sourdough starter, fermented for a minimum of 24 hours, and hand-shaped before being baked. The flours hail from a cadre of regional mills, including Hudson Valley Farm Hub, ensuring each bite captures the flavors of New York state. Signature offerings such as the egg sandwich on a milk-bread bun and the “Il Voltrono” Italian hoagie embody the café's inventive spirit, while seasonal pastries add variety to daily menus. Partnering with local farmers, breweries, and vineyards, this eatery not only delivers delicious fare but also strengthens its community ties, making it a vital part of the local culinary landscape.
