Description

Dos Hermanos Bakery operates at the intersection of 10th Avenue and Stark Street in southeast Portland's Buckman neighborhood, [2] and previously operated on North Killingsworth Street in the northeast Portland part of the Boise neighborhood. [3] It has a 7,000-square-foot production area and warehouse, operating in the same development as a Fracture Brewing taproom and Lil' America, a food cart pod. [4] [5] The interior of Dos Hermanos has terracotta-colored tiles and a mural depicting Chichen Itza. [6] [7]

Dos Hermanos offers sandwiches, [8] sourdough, [7] and Mexican-inspired baked goods such as baguettes with habanero and pumpkin seeds, as well as conchas and small pies with ham, cheese, and jalapeño. [9]

Sandwich varieties include the Bada Bing (Italian cured meats, provolone), the Beast Master (roast beef, horseradish, chips), [10] the Get Him to the Greek (chickpeas, feta, olives, pepperoncini), the Irish Goodbye (corned beef, sauerkraut), and the Papa Gabe (chicharrónes, escabeche, ham, queso fresco, salsa verde). [11]

History

The business was founded by brothers Gabriel and Josue Azcorra, from Mérida, Yucatán. [9] According to The Oregonian : "In 2017, ChefStable owner Kurt Huffman reached out to the brothers to see if they might be interested in taking over Philippe's Bread, an 1,800-square-foot bakery originally opened by French baker Philippe Garcia to fuel several ChefStable restaurants, including the rapidly growing Lardo. Huffman told the brothers that if they managed to turn the business around, they could earn an ownership stake in the business. After rebranding as Dos Hermanos in 2018, the bakery quickly turned a profit." [7] The brothers owned 50.1 percent of Dos Hermanos in 2023. [7]

In 2023, Dos Hermanos moved from Boise to Buckman [10] [12] and made approximately 18,000 loaves of ciabatta weekly. [7] It has supplied baked goods to local restaurants, [13] such as rolls for Demarco's Sandwiches, [14] [15] bread for Kimura, [16] and brioche for Monster Smash. [17] Dos Hermanos has also supplied English muffins to New Seasons Market. [7]

Reception

Michelle Lopez and Janey Wong included Dos Hermanos in Eater Portland 's 2024 list of the city's best bakeries. [18] The business won in the Best Bakery category of Willamette Week 's annual 'Best of Portland' readers' poll in 2024. [19]
