This was a spur of the moment find on our way to Hammond Castle (also well worth a visit). We were hangry and looking for breakfast-ish options and Source Bakery more than hit the spot. Their menu is centered around the almighty biscuit - biscuits/scones are one of my favorite ways to inhale carbs but they can run on the too bread-y side of the spectrum. These were fantastic: delicate crumb, beautiful golden color, and sturdy enough to hold in all the sandwich fillings. I went with the classic breakfast egg sandwich (scrambled egg, cheese, and arugula) and added sausage. This was one of those rare situations where the bread vehicle outshined the fillings. The egg, while nice and fluffy (and tasted like real egg instead of the diluted mix I've had elsewhere), could have used some more seasoning and was begging for a healthy dollop of ketchup or hot sauce. The only thing that came through strongly was the salt crystals on the top of the biscuit. Tried a bite of my husband's chicken salad on a cheddar/onion biscuit and had the same reaction - the biscuit overpowered everything else. Not that I'm complaining. The bakery is on a side street off the busier, more touristy Rogers Street. I had this idea too late but next time I'm in Gloucester, I'd take a biscuit sandwich to the beach area along Western Ave. The cafe itself is very, very cute, with little nooks and crannies everywhere for seating and even a comfy looking couch. Bathroom was clean. We found a parking lot one street over in the other direction. read more

Source Bakery - Classic breakfast sandwich on a biscuit - Bakeries Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

We love coming to this bakery when we are in town. It really is phenomenal and deserves all five stars. I highly recommend their buttermilk biscuit. We had the sausage, goat, cheese, and arugula biscuit sandwich. It was amazing. We also had the miso breakfast sandwich, which was also excellent though it is just served on regular bread, which isn't anything remarkable. We also got a monkey bread which we had gotten before, and it was delicious. They also recommended a sweet hand pie, and we got the apple one. It was also excellent - not too sweet, not heavy, just flaky goodness. This is an absolute five star experience worth every bite of saturated fat, salt, and sugar!! read more

A beautiful bakery, amazing food and setting. Wish I could afford all of it, just too pricey for us. Made us think of Italy, except for the cost. Sad thinks cost so much in this Country but I get it. I guess. read more

Stopped in before a work event and had the breakfast sandwich and a blueberry hand pie...came back two hours later with coworkers and had the coffee cake; this place is just that good! The biscuit is fantastic: slightly crispy exterior and fluffy interior. The hand pie was phenomenal as well. The coffee cake was good - the other two items stood out more - but then again, my taste buds may have just been desensitized by all of the carbs I had within a few hours. Highly recommend and will definitely return! Lots of seating inside and great for small groups too. read more

decent pastries!!! nothing amazing but deff notable. cute vibe nice atmosphere, friendly staff!

Warm, welcoming bakery and cafe. Their pastry is on point. Peach hand pies? Amazing. Savory quiche with a crust of tender buttery goodness? Delicious. Loved the collection of board games, and the local art on the walls. As an unexpected bonus, the space is quite large with lots of cozy seating and different areas to settle in while you tuck into your latte. A highlight for our little family while staying in Gloucester this week. We will be back! read more

Source Bakery - Morning monopoly with a side of warm cinnamon bun - Bakeries Near Me - Gloucester, Massachusetts

Just next to the Main Street corner, source offers and wide assortment of fresh baked and breakfast goods backed up by what has to be the best coffee in the region. BUSY but worth ANY wait. Clearly, a town standard with knowledgable staff and dedicated following. Source is to bakery what Turtle Alley is to chocolate. Before you know it, you've spent more than you wanted but, got more than you expected. We'll be back. read more

Visiting from L.A., I found Source Bakery here on Yelp. Wow. I ordered a buttermilk biscuit, two square fruit tarts, and an open-faced lemon custard tart...and all of them were worldclass delicious. And rich. And plenty to go around for a group of 5 to snack on with breakfast for two mornings. I wish I lived closer year round! read more

This is a fairly new bakery in Gloucester tucked on a side street off Main. We tried the hand pies, feta &spinach and a potato, bacon, cheese. We requested they be warmed! Both were delicious. The crust was flaky, crispy and flavorful! The interior is spacious and open with high top options and comfy upholstered chairs at some 2 tables! We will definitely be back to try some of the sweet options ! read more

Finally a coffee shop w delicious coffee in gloucester!!!!!! We were in town visiting for two days and we went there total of three times! Their cold brew is pure bliss and perfect!

Their yogurt w granola and jam is to die for, their biscuit is so crispy yet buttery, their apple crisp pie is rich w apple gooey warmth w the perfect amount of crispy crumbs on top. Their reubin breakfast sandwich was one of the best ive ever had and loved that it wasnt so meaty but more sauerkraut-y ! Everything is so so so good here i almost wish i didnt share it with anybody and i wish i stayed few more days to try everything on the menu. I told my husband i want to book an airbnb right across the street from this cafe!

Great coffee and biscuits. Cool vibe, very friendly staff. Our go-to in Gloucester!.

Our favorite North Shore Baker now in Gloucester! Discovered this gem at Salem MA Farmers Market a few years ago. Everything we tasted was excellent. My favorite is the plain buttermilk biscuit. Tastes just like my Irish Grandmother's ones I watched her make from scratch over 50 years ago. I have been searching for this biscuit for over half a century. Love them so much I would mail order them or have several put aside at the market. The space they are in was once Alchemy. The space is great to people watch but it lacks a feeling of warmth and feels tired. Could use updated bench cushions and different colored paint and better lighting. The products are excellent. The lemonade is way too sweet. The hot coffee is superb. And those biscuits came with onions and cheddar this time. The staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. read more

Located off Main Street in downtown Gloucester this yummy little place is going to make a splash I'm hoping. Being familiar with there products though local farmers markets they now have a brick and mortar location. Amazing quiches, hand pies,fluffy biscuit and egg sandwiches are just of the few items that they offer. Bright friendly space with service to match. read more

I frequently go to Source because I love their biscuits with homemade jam. Not many places do them as well/have them at all around here. Everything I have tried tastes fresh and I haven't had any bad experiences with food or service! read more

I went here with my friend recently and I have nothing but amazing things to say! The person who helped my friend in I was so friendly and patient while we debated on what goodies to get.

Great bread. My son brought this bread for our Christmas dinner We thoroughly enjoyed it.

The best option in Gloucester, period, for baked goods and a simple breakfast sandwich. Very cool spot that is off the beaten path. The menu is limited which is a plus in my opinion. They make a few things really really well at a very fair price. If you are looking for an oat milk, steamed latte and a crummy bagel, head to Starbucks but if you want an incredible breakfast sandwich at a fair price, then come here. Everything is made in the kitchen from scratch. This obviously limits the menu but what they offer is incredible. And just to wrap up, the service is warm, attentive and friendly. read more

Do you enjoy buttery pastry and jam? Would you like a sky-high cheddar biscuit, moist on the inside with a sweet little crunch on the outside? Could you use a crumble? Or a sea-salt-sprinkled chocolate chip cookie? We tasted love, butter, and fresh local ingredients in every bite of every treat from Source. If you have ever heard of Gloucester, you are close enough to plan a trip just for the baked goods. We did. We bought a box of goodies before hitting the beach, and we left the beach in time to buy more before heading home. So jealous of the Gloucester locals! If you aren't beach-bound, the table space is cheerful and immaculate. Wish I were there. Still dreaming of the hand pies. read more

this is a five star Bakery with two star service. The hostess with the nose ring had all the warmth of the information desk at a motor vehicle bureau. Otherwise, the coffee and pastries are out of this world. read more

This is a great bakery in a tricky spot, there's been a lot of different shops in this location and I'm so happy to see these ladies having great success. The baked goods are divine. Cinnamon coffee cake, hand pies, cupcakes, and especially the biscuits. (Maybe slightly salty) and the biscuit breakfast sandwich is absolutely amazing. So so good. A big bite, but totally worth it. Yum and then some. read more

The ambiance and food/coffee was delicious and the service was impeccable. Can't wait to go back!

Was in the area for a day trip got there just before 11 and was really wanting breakfast. Can I tell you running into source was the perfect start to the day... friendly workers made us feel very welcomed . Me and my best friend split a breakfast sandwich with the most perfect scrambled egg w nice crisp bacon on a biscuit (that I am still dreaming about) . As well as a pie that was in the shape of a turnover with sausage broccoli rabe and feta . Being a chef for over 20 years I really appreciate great food and I promise you if you haven't been to source you definitely need to stop in. I will be back all the way from New Bedford just for my source fix read more

A true gem in Gloucester. Everything is delicious but be warned- The biscuits are insane. The original, the jalapeño cheddar, the dill- they all are out of this world! And a breakfast sandwich on a biscuit- it's a whole other atmosphere. read more

The vibe is also great for sticking around for a cup of coffee and a visit with friends. The service is great and we have loved getting to chat with both owners as they settle in. read more

If you're visiting Cape Ann this summer, or any time really, you cannot miss this place. Amazing pastries, Little Wolf Coffee (out of Ipswich), and hands down the best breakfast sandwich on the island. Pro-tip, ask for it with the cheddar-onion biscuit. Located off of main street towards the quiet end, it can be easy to miss, but guaranteed you won't feel the effort was wasted! read more

Amazing new bakery/cafe in Gloucester. The food is out of this world. Best breakfast sandwich I've had in a long time. Fresh out of the oven cinnamon rolls that were divine.

Can't wait to go back tomorrow read more

The new Source bakery in Gloucester is the best cafe in town. The fresh baked goods are so much better than what you get in a typical cafe. The coffee is good. And the inside is really well done and with plenty of space. There is no place in Gloucester that has all three. We'll be regulars this summer. read more
