Description

Portland Monthly has described the Pearl District location as "a sun-flooded shop where a dozen types of bread (Griffin’s pride: a caraway rye), superb scones, pastries, pies, and croissants are thoroughly enjoyed by the neighborhood". There are additional locations in the South Waterfront district and in northwest Portland. [2] The 2,300-square-foot space in the Pearl District has a seating capacity of approximately 60. [3]

History

Plans for Lovejoy Bakers to open in the Pearl District emerged in 2009. [4] The bakery opened in November. [5] Kyle MacLachlan visited the bakery in 2010. [6] In addition to breakfast and lunch service, the Pearl District bakery began a dinner series in 2011. [7] [8] [9]
