About us
A corner bakery, the old-fashioned way
Crumb & Hearth started with one deck oven and a sourdough starter named Gus. A decade later we still mix every dough by hand, mill our rye in-house and buy flour from a family farm in central Illinois.
We’re open early so nurses coming off night shift, kids heading to school and everyone in between can grab something warm. Day-old bread goes to the neighborhood food pantry every evening.
Order ahead, skip the line
Call or email by 2 pm for next-morning pickup. Whole pies and catering trays need 24 hours.
