I was searching for fresh sourdough bread in NW Houston and discovered Artisan Bread Gallery about 5 miles from my house in Jersey Village. Unfortunately the location on Windfern was closed but a sign on the door said they had a 2nd location at FM 1960. I went to the FM 1960 location and was so glad I did! They have a full selection of fresh breads: sourdough, jalapeno, rosemary garlic, cranberry walnut, boules and loaves. They also make fresh sandwiches and sell kolaches, doughnuts, churros, croissants and organic coffee, espresso, latte or cappuccinos. I am so happy this business is nearby! They are so friendly and serve to pls! read more

Oh my gosh! This is the real deal! We love the San Francisco sour dough and the walnut and berries bread. The olive oil bread is amazing! Love it all. So fresh. No fillers. No additives. It's the way bread used to be. Now you and get it! read more

20/10 top tier bread! I stopped by for lunch during work, got a cold sub with turkey, Swiss, tomatoes, lettuce, and jalapeños. The bread was amazing! Service was quick and wonderful, but I do have to note there are no seats or tables... don't care tho, I'll happily stand all day for that sandwich. Stop byyyy! Trust me! read more

I have tried the bread the Kolache's, the sandwiches. All of it is fantastic. I definitely recommend the Kolaches and the Hot Capicola sandwich, fantastic. read more

every time i come here they give me a sample of something! i came just to pick up some bread for sandwiches at their new location. they have a good seating area, cozy environment, and fast service. but be aware- kind of busy on weekends (which isn't an issue with how fast and nice the service is). you are welcomed with the smell of delicious bread as soon as you walk in. i just wish they had vegetarian options for their sandwiches! i got the jalapeño bell pepper bread and it was loaded with peppers. it complimented the caprese i made :) read more

This bakery has been on my list of things to try but I have to get out extra early before work to make it here. They were super friendly and I was so happy to get a taste of all they had. I ended up with a loaf of country sourdough, great and crusty. Very good when grilled in a skillet with butter. Also got a chocolate croissant - it was good but I wanted the chocolate to be piped in. It seemed to be spread onto the croissant then heated. The breakfast biscuit with sausage and egg was really good. I also got their glazed donut, good but not too sweet. They gave me a complimentary donut with cream. It didn't have enough cream for my taste but I appreciated it. Overall I will go back for the fresh baked bread. read more

Tried this place last week May 13th for the first time and it was just a bad experience all around. Ordered 2 sandwiches. My sausage egg and cheese sandwich had a hair. I immediately threw it up & was upset. I called up the business, explained the situation & the employee who answered my call tried to ask me how long was the hair, when I said about 2/3 inches she said I couldn't have gotten a hair as it's male employees cooking & then tried to tell me she couldn't find my order in her system and to drive up back up there to see if they would offer refund. I didn't say anything & hung up the phone. I get a text about 20 min later... Apparently from the owner.. & well yeah.. didn't go as I would think would had been the appropriate way to handle this & well per attachments.. my loss was deff their gain.. sad this experience was unfortunate as I see the ratings are good.. but for me, it just wasn't a great experience at all and for that I would not return nor would I recommend. read more

First time at their new location on 1960. It is larger than their other location. Looks like they have a larger selection of sandwiches and coffee. I purchased loaf of sourdough bread and a strawberry kolache. They were delicious. The bread is was fresh and tasty . Employees are helpful and friendly. This location is much closer to me than the one on Windfern. They have all kinds of different fresh breads and pastries. Can't wait to go back there for lunch and coffee one day. read more

The food is amazing here ! Customer service is top tier! Just moved to the area and passed by and had to stop. They have amazing hot soups and our sandwiches were out of this world ! read more

Stopped by on a whim--had no intention of buying anything, just wanted to check it out. The lady behind the counter offered me a whole slice of cranberry walnut bread as a sample. It was absolutely delicious, so of course I bought a loaf... and a danish. Both were promptly devoured. I went back again, debating between a cinnamon roll or another danish. The gentleman at the counter gave me both for the price of one--and even tossed in two extra breads. I was genuinely surprised and deeply appreciative. These folks are the real deal. They've earned every single five-star review on Yelp. 10/10--highly recommend for the fresh-baked bread, but even more for the kindness of the owners. read more

The Boudin kolache is pretty good as it tastes less gamey than other versions (famous and small shops) and has a lot of rice and meat. The bread is chewy and similar to sourdough in taste and texture. Focaccia slice (vegetable) has a thin slice of tomato, sliced onions and mushrooms. It kind of tastes like a supreme pizza. The cherry and cream cheese danish has a thick and slightly tart flavor. The ham and cheese croissant is pretty good. The white cheese, fried egg and thin slices of slightly salty ham make a satisfying combo. They have a small bacon, sausage, egg, and cheese burger, which is way better than what you get at the normal fast food places. They don't have typical jam but were willing to give me a small container of one of the fillings at no cost. The raspberry filling has a similar thick consistency of the cherry with a more berry flavor. There seems to be only one man working the front, but the others may step in if the line gets backed up. I would say the customers are a little grumpy because a 5-8 minutes wait seemed too long for them. read more

I've passed by this bakery 1 million times. So I finally stopped by and now I'm kicking myself for not stopping by sooner. This is a hidden treasure! Fresh baked bread, fresh baked pastries. So so delicious. I'm no longer going to be buying bread at the grocery store and buying all my fresh bread & pastries here. read more

Great place! Hope you make almond croissants a priority for an addition to your menu. Also, French cruller donuts.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this bakery, but more than anything, the wonderful people who run it. I needed 4 dozen donuts at the last minute, when they were about to close, and they were so kind and accommodating. The donuts were freshly baked and ready; the water polo kids devoured them and said they were the best donuts they've had. I've tried their pumpernickel, almond, jalapeño, and rye loaves, and they have all been delicious. This bakery is a true old-world bakery, not many are left like this one, especially with the superb service. The location is great, and parking is plentiful. If you are looking for homemade bread or pastries, you gotta try this place. read more

Artisan Bread Gallery - Delicious almond bread and 4 dozens of donuts. - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

There's no other place in Houston that compares to this hidden gem. I've been on the hunt for a top-notch bakery, and I recently stumbled upon this gallery right under my nose. Having worked in the gallery district near Woodway, I can confidently say there's no bakery nearby that offers anything close to what you'll find here. I tried the Country Sourdough bread, which is wonderfully soft, along with some delicious kolaches. I was treated and indulged in a jelly-filled donut (either cherry or raspberry) that wasn't overly sweet, which I really appreciated. It was incredibly fluffy and flavorful. From now on, this will be my go-to spot for baked goods. They offer an impressive variety of breads that's too extensive to list! read more

My wife and I were headed to the airport to catch our flight and decided to stop at Artisan Bread Gallery and WOW is all that we have to say! The Kolaches were so fresh and the woman who served us was so genuinely nice. Will 100% be a repeat customer. Thank you for being so hospitable. read more

I wanted to give the app too good to go a chance, and this place popped up. They have plenty of parking, and it's like a grab and go place. I couldn't help but order more in addition to my too good to go order. We got to try their doughnuts, sourdough, kolaches, danishes. This is the real deal, they are very high quality. This isn't your typical white bread junk. They even had a little sandwich making station that I'm interested in trying. read more

First time there, so we tried a variety of items. Everything was really good and the prices are very reasonable. We've been looking for a bakery like this since we moved to Houston in June. Can't wait to go back. read more

Provided magnificent service and breads. I ordered something special for my students. They came through magnificently. Looking forward to future orders. read more

Long over due for this review.. had a wonderful experience not only trying a variety of breads and sweets but meeting the owners. I would come back regardless of their kindness, but getting to know them made the experience just that much better. It's a small place, but what they manage to do there is incredible. Highly recommend read more

Stopped by this charming little bakery this morning! The smell that hits you when walking in is so amazing that you know you're exactly where you should be! The manager's friendly smile and attention to detail and customer service set this place above all the rest! Now let's get to the food... A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!! We were offered multiple samples during our visit and ended up getting a plethora of items to take home and enjoy! All of it was great but my favorites were the jalapeno kolache on sourdough, the chocolate croissant, and the cream cheese kolaches!!! Don't pass this place without stopping in! You'll be glad you did!! read more

Best bread in town! Pastries and kolaches are delicious! Service is exceptional. Can't wait to try the sandwiches next.

A Facebook group I follow suggested this place, and after my initial visit, I was completely sold. The sourdough bread here is simply the best! I even brought my mom along once, and we couldn't resist taking home some of their delicious jalapeño bread. The service was top-notch, from the warm greeting to the detailed explanations of each bread variety. read more

This is top tier bread and service! The breads and breakfast items are delicious. The pastries are also delicious. You have to time it just right otherwise there is a line of folks waiting for service at any given moment. These folks know what they are doing and I'm a regular customer. read more

We went today after church and their choices in breads and pastries were really wonderful. Got rye loaf and olive loaf. Can't wait for a huge ham & Swiss sandwich tomorrow for lunch! Just disappointing there isn't an eat in area to enjoy a coffee and pastry. Location is kind of weird. Hopefully they do well and move to a place that can accommodate eat in. Place smell WONDERFUL when you walk in so you know it's fresh made! read more

I went there looking for sourdough bread. The service was great. A good variety of breads. I was given a sample of different breads to try. I told the woman it was my first time there. She made suggestions of what to get this time and others in the future. She answered my questions and told me the best way to store the bread. I also got some free goodies. The bread is so flavorful. I will be back but need to space out the trips so I don't regain my lost weight! Thank you so much. read more

Sitting in the parking lot munching on a roll. I need to get this review out now. I'll be brief... Bread the way it's supposed to be. Top quality everything right down to the water. There's a passion for an art here that you just don't see too often anymore. These guys have it wired. This is by far the best bakery I have been to in Houston, or a lot of places for that matter. If you like bread, don't miss this place. If you're on some low/no carb kick, I'm sorry about that but I'll happily eat your share. read more

Super nice people. I was just driving by, saw the sign and popped in just to see what they offered. I walked out with a loaf of Polish rye, a pretzel and a boudin kolache. Good bakeries are hard to find, I will definitely be back. 5 Stars! read more

Awesome European bakery great staff always friendly and answers all questions on bread I haven't seen. And real kohlaches !!!!

Super inexpensive! Everything here is amazing and the staff is the sweetest. Can't go back to buying bread anywhere else!!!

Friendly, small bakery which offers great variety and moderate prices. It at the end of a 5-6 strip shopping center, tucked back off of the service road on the north side of Beltway 8...I suggest using your GPS the first time to locate it. Plenty of parking. I highly recommend stopping by. read more

OMG the cream cheese cinnamon rolls are decadent. You'll need an hour at the gym to work it off, but completely worth it. The pretzel twists really good too. Will try to do follow up posts while I work through all their pastries and breads...and try not to add 20 pounds. read more

Excellent place. Solid help behind the counters. Great bread,great choices. Recommended

This has been our to go place for sourdough! A little out of the way for us but worth the trip every time. Many varieties to choose from. The sun-dried tomato is currently our favorite! Sweetest old man helped us while they were closing. Will keep coming back. Thank you! read more

I really enjoyed the sandwich I bought here! I got roast beef on ciabatta with lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo and spicy mustard. A 12 inch was enough to split with my husband, and my half was enough for 2 meals. We also tried a blueberry Danish which was great. Very friendly and they will be opening a second location. read more
