Luigi’s Family Bakery

Luigi’s is quite simply a little old-​school gem. The family bakery is located in an unassuming brick building, but as soon as you step out of your car you’ll smell the deliciousness going on inside.
Crusty breads and rolls, home-​made doughnuts, and a nice little selection of Italian pastries fill a glass-​front cabinet adorned with handwritten signs describing the offerings and prices. Good luck choosing! Everything I’ve ever tried has been wonderful. And I love that the bread has about four ingredients – none of which are scary-​sounding additives!
Happily, the warmth doesn’t stop with the tasty baked goods; the service is just as special. I’ve never stopped there without a good story to tell when I got home. On one visit, I ordered doughnuts, a couple pastries, and two loaves of bread. When the gentleman behind the counter told me, «That’ll be $ 3.25,» I said, «That doesn’t seem right. It has to be more than that!» His smiling reply, «I own the place, it costs what I say it costs.» Yesterday, I slipped in a few minutes before closing and I ordered Italian bread. After a few moments of discussion, the ladies at the counter concluded that the two loaves left were «too hard» and offered me BOGO French bread instead – two loaves for $ 2!
Luigi’s is not fancy or upscale, it’s just wonderful. Skip the supermarket bakery sometime and give them a try!

Delicious breads, pastries and pizza. Their pizza dough is excellent. Reasonably priced too. The inside could use some updating

This is a hidden gem, unassuming on the outside and full of warmth and hospitality on the inside. We tried a delicious almond pastry and a warm cinnamon roll. The roll was subtly sweet and just the right size. Took some Italian bread home to enjoy during the week and was very pleased with the affordability to quality ratio. The woman who helped me was patient and made great recommendations! She also slipped in a cookie on the house. I left a happy camper and can’t wait to go back.

There is no better Italian bread in the city! Everything we have gotten at Luigi’s has been fabulous! Our family highly recommends this locally owned family business! Oh and the pastry hearts are very tasty!!! Luigi’s is a little bit of heaven.

We travel to Buffalo, NY once every two years. We ALWAYS get bread, rolls & other baked goods from Luigi’s. This is a REAL Italian family bakery! There’s none better. My wife loves their frosted, flaky heart-​shaped pastry. I love the sesame-​seeded Italian bread. If it wasn’t such a long drive back to Florida I’d fill the back of the car… but I’d eat it all before we got to Tennessee! Mangia and enjoy the BEST bread & baked delicacies east of the Mississippi!

A true Italian Family bakery. It’s been around for decades in different locations around Buffalo but has always been my favorite. Have known the family most of my life and will tell you they are a hands on operation.
Mostly breads and rolls but a few good pastries and other sweets.
Always a must stop around any Holiday like Xmas or Easter.
So stop by and try it instead of a supermarket bread.
