Was in Erie PA on our hunt for Pepperoni Balls. Thanks to Yelp we found Art's Bakery…read more Loved the pepperoni balls. Just heat in the oven (400f) for 3 to 6 minutes. We cut ours in half before we heated them. This is a great neighborhood bakery. We also purchased cookies and cinnamon breakfast rolls. Everything we tried was yummy. It's a complete bakery - they had breads, cookies and others desert items. Plenty of friendly wait staff behind the counter. Open 6 days a week. It's a 5. Parking in front- the place is very popular when we visited there was a large crowd of folks buying their baked goodies.

I've been a loyal Art's customer since it was owned by Art (the original building was so small you…read morehad to go outside to change your mind and the floor was on a tilt). The Gordon years were great as well. These new owners have finally turned me off. 3 times in the past month I've stopped for rye bread and all 3 times they've been out and have said they won't be making any more soon. Wouldn't you think if you sell out you'd put it on the schedule to make more. I also purchased a dozen chocolate chip cookies and discovered 2 were half pieces (essentially i got 11 cookies). They also seemed to quit carrying local products (i.e. maple syrup). Such a shame a local institution has declined so significantly.

I was immediately won over, though: they're squishy in such a way that the dough absorbs the pepperoni grease just perfectly. Pepperoni bread is also pretty good but not as special as the balls.

As a lifetime Erie resident I'm not going to lie, I gave it an extra star for nostalgia. Like most…read morepeople said, they're not the friendliest bunch, but not necessarily rude. The bread is amazing. Cannolis, best in town. Pizza so good. Keep in mind, the earlier you go the better selection and quality. I mentioned being a lifetime resident and have enjoyed their food since I was a child. My grandfather used to go every weekend when I was growing up. As soon as they opened without fail. Without giving my age, it's been decades and their quality has been consistent. I'd definitely recommend it, but can see how some can be turned off by the experience.

You can add avocado, which is always a big selling point for me. They have various breads and rolls made in house, including a cheesy garlic. I had a chicken sandwich. One son had a hot dog, the other chicken tenders. everything was well made and served promptly. The only thing I didn't like is the sandwiches came with chips made in house instead of fries unless you paid extra, and the chips were kind of bland. Service is great. The space is lovely. I think I'll try breakfast next time we're in the area. I think it's available all day.

I ordered the Country Fried Steak Breakfast with a side of potato pancakes, which was fantastic! It was served perfectly, and the portion was generous. Prices are very reasonable. Located in front of the Copperleaf Apartments, it's a very cute area. They also offer outdoor seating, weather permitting, which is quite a nice feature. As in their name, they are a bakery as well. Upon entering, you can view their cases displaying all the baked goods... which looks delicious. I highly recommend it, and I will definitely be going back!
