Loafers Bread

Delicious! Super fresh sandwiches and salads. The bread and pies are amazing. A smaller menu then panera but a gazillion times better with taste and quality.

Loafers is a locally owned bakery/​café. Their loaves of bread are made fresh daily. I haven’t had a bad sandwich at this place, but my fave is their meatball sandwich. I think unlike before, they are only sold on certain days (mon and sat?). I usually check their twitter to see the daily sandwich and soup menu. I’ve only had their chicken cesar salad but my husband recommends the chef’s salad w/​chicken. I trust him as he has lunch at Loafers almost everyday.
The portions are big and definitely filling. They have a half and half option where you can get half a sandwich with soup or salad.
My other faves at loafers are their challah bread and pumpkin choc chip bread. They also sell natrona bottled sodas. Workers are usually friendly. A little disappointed that the workers don’t ask for your loafers dozen club card or offer it. Dave is the only one who seems to remember and he’s really nice.

Wonderful atmosphere. Genuinely happy and helpful staff. Family owned farm/​business. Fresh flour daily. Great selections of freshly made breads and other baked goods. Challah, Laurel Mountain Herb and Cinnamon raisin walnut were a few of the choices during my visit. I can’t imagine you’d visit on a day where a delicious variety was not available. The sandwiches were perfect and made to order. We’ll be back.

Yum! What a great option for lunch?! I usually do Panera or Zuppas but, today, I wanted to try something new. They have a ton of bread (duh!), sandwiches and salads. I had the pick two combo… you get half of a sandwich and a cup of soup or small salad for $ 6.59. That’s really affordable for delicious food! The ladies here were super friendly and got my food put together within 2 minutes. There are enough eating for 50 people, about 10 outside and 40 inside. Today, I got the turkey/​bacon club and a cup of chicken gumbo. The gumbo was not spicy at all but very flavorable. The club was pretty good — turkey was thinly sliced and toppings were high quality. I, also, got the lemon blueberry pound cake for the team and that was really good (especially when paired with coffee). I’ll have to add this joint to my weekly lunch routine!

Being a bread lover this place is a paradise for me! A nice variety of bread types to choose from and all look and (in fact) taste amazing. The challah bread is my absolute favorite and close enough is the cinnamon bread. You should also totally try the cinnamon sugar covered nuts! In some sense I am glad I live 30 minutes from Loafers because otherwise I would eat on loaf of bread every day!
Their lunch sandwiches also seems great and I will definitely have to try them next time!

I gotta say, I had my doubts when first coming here. I simply though this would be your average sandwich shop and would be just a clone of Panera. In retrospect, I was wrong.
The reason to come to Loafers is the bread. The bread is what will keep you coming back. Their is so many different grains and flavors used in their bread, plus they change occasionally. Their is also a decent range of side dishes from potato salad to soup. The sandwiches are fresh and full of flavor, so your tastebuds will be satisfied. But this is only for lunch and dinner.
For breakfast, I have mixed emotions. They have divine muffins and coffee cake. Believe me, they have at least one sweet treat that you will get addicted to. But as for sandwiches, they only have one type. As for me, I love variety. So only having one type of breakfast sandwich is a real letdown. Couldn’t they make it like McDonald’s and use English Muffins or Croissants and not just bread? I don’t know, maybe it is just me, but they lost some points for that.
One last thing, you could also buy straight-​up loaves of bread. I can’t praise the bread enough. All in all, Loafers is perfect for those for want something sweet for breakfast and fine quality bread for a sandwich for lunch.

Everything is baked at this site and some bread goes out to the Cranberry and Fox Chapel locations. They use natural ingredients and Artisan baking methods.
They have a dining room that is a little like Panera, but with better food.
The staff was very friendly.
If you are buying bread, get there a little earlier, as they sometimes sell out of inventory. Everything is made fresh, so I can completely understand.

Amazing how great bread can make a sandwich excellent! Wonderful service & really reasonable prices when we had lunch there today. Ended up purchasing a challah and a cinnamon swirl loaf to go & I’m not sure we’ll have any left by tomorrow. We were visiting from out of town but will definitely stop here on our next visit.

Loafers has the very best bread I have ever had anywhere!!! It is unheard of to find so many breads in one place that are made without preservatives, gmo’s, and processed sugars. Clearly they are doing something right, what with 3 locations. As all natural foods are touted more and more as the key to healthy and longer lives, I see places like Loafers that offer the same types of products we are used to eating but in a healthier way going far. I would love to see them expand… Philly and New York next please!

I always walk in for a sandwich and walk out with a loaf of bread and cookies. Everything is always made fresh. The bread really makes the sandwiches. They even serve basic PB&J! They have homemade granola. The lemon blueberry loaf is excellent. I like the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and the cinnamon rolls. Who am I kidding? I like everything they serve!

This is one of my favorite places to come for a heathy fresh meal! This is the perfect place to go whether your meeting friends for lunch or eating alone! It’s a casual relaxed atmosphere.

I walked in at 10:45, and despite the sign that said they had breakfast sandwiches, I couldn’t get one because it was after 10:30. (The restaurant was empty and making an egg takes 5 minutes.) After they said no to that, I asked if they would make a Caesar salad wrap or sandwich, and again, no. I got the veggie sandwich, which was quite good. They also didn’t have honey for tea. The sandwich shop side of the business seems not accommodating and poorly equipped.

This place has some really unique breads and the selections change daily. They also have samples of some of there breads available. I got the Laurel Mountain herb. Yummy! Other examples include German Stout available on Mondays, Montana Multi-​Grain on Tuesday, cherry apple on Wednesday, Blueberry pineapple on Thursday, English muffin on Friday, and Sunflower Whole wheat on Saturday. They also have other items like lemon blueberry pound cake and banana bread. If you are familiar with the great harvest bread company it is very similar. It is nothing like Panera
They offer only round unsliced loaves the way bread was sold until the early 1900s. Because there are no artificial preservatives, a sliced loaf would go stale too fast. Nutritional information is available for all the bread
They offer free delivery for 7 or more box lunches

The MOST awesome Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies not baked by my Grandmother!
Food is definitely homemade. Unique and definitely worth a trip.

Same idea as Panera, but with a smaller and more local feel. I can recommend the garden veggie sandwich. Reasonably priced sandwiches, salads, soups, breads, and muffins. Friendly service.
