Cute little bakery shop that has wheat and sourdough bread! The service was super friendly and had enough seats inside and outside. Also spacious parking lot as well. -Bagel: Amazing amazing sourdough bagels with herby cream cheese! Cream cheese was not overwhelmingly cheesy, light and compliment the sourdough bagel well. Probably one of the best bagels I ever had! -Focaccia: yummy, very healthy taste as it's made with wheat. My mom loved the -Mountain Bread: had cheese and tomato inside. Outside was crunchy and inside was dense! Mom loved this one! read more

I simply don't understand any business in this are (Mt Tabor) that would close at 2 pm. Disappointing as hell! I'm from the East Coast. The best areas, the best bakeries would be more likely to open at 11 and close, maybe, at 6 or 7. Even that's not late enough. This area has gotten more . . . ladidah in the 30 years I've lived here. I've seen a lot of businesses come and go. The ones that don't go? Lots of flexibilitiy. BTW, that location seems to be jinxed. Another reason you might want to start out with more "neighborhood" (person?) friendly hours. No matter how good your baked goods are. Just a thought . . . read more

Service / food / ambience: 5/5 We came this past Monday. Weather was warm, outside seating was open so there was a good amount of seating. On rainy or cooler days, I could see seating being issue during peak hours. Parking is also very limited. We walked up, the cashier was nice. She warned us that they were out of a few things as we came later the day. The menu is extremely limited - three items on the menu for actual lunch. We ordered a Loxsmith - sub cream cheese for avocado (crazy I know!) & a Chicken sandwich. We also got two hot jasmine green teas. There was an auto gratuity / service fee that applied. Our total came out to about $50. The food took a little longer than I'd think it would but the food was absolutely delicious. I wasn't too thrilled with the amount of dressing that drenched my salad but the dressing itself was good. I'd opt for it to be on the side next time. We were very satisfied with our food, but this was a much pricer lunch than we expected from a bakery. Nonetheless, the sandwich was a treat. Their pastries/bread look great too. I'd come again. note: despite how good the food is, the challenge to find parking, prices and very limited menu made me hesitant to give it a 5/5. read more

I've been wanting to try Tabor Bread ever since Maurizio from The Perfect Loaf posted it on his Instagram story. Tabor Bread bakes 100% whole grain sourdough goods, and boy are they amazing. My husband and I arrived around 1pm, about an hour before closing. There were about 3 options with limited quantities still available. This made our decision much easier, though I would recommend going earlier in the day if you would like more options. We ordered 1 of each, this included a breakfast sausage brioche, a mushroom gravy brioche, and a buckwheat chocolate chip cookie. Everything was absolutely delicious and well worth the price. The bakery itself is super cute, with a small seating area and a little fancy pantry goods area too. I am already planning my next visit! read more

Great bread yes, great pastries, cute interior. The bagel with beet cream cheese is the perfect combination of simple yet fresh and delicious ingredients. My only grievance is that it's overpriced asf. Unless your rolling in money or wanna treat yourself here and there your gonna be spending a pretty penny for some bread. read more

There was no menu whatsoever except for a board that listed the sandwiches but didn't say what was on them. Nothing was labeled with any descriptions or ingredients, so we didn't know what to get and the line was too long to stand there and ask multiple questions. So we ordered what looked good in the case. Mistake. The savory "brioche" was very tough and freezing cold with congealed gravy or maybe it was cheese, genuinely hard to tell - no offer to warm it up. The seasonal scone was hard at first but then turned to powder in your mouth, like the consistency of kinetic sand. Very difficult to even swallow. The blueberry muffin was ok. The coffees were fine. We left and got more food elsewhere. Aesthetically the place is cute, but that's pretty much the only positive thing I can say. read more

Tabor Bread is an absolute gem in Portland and easily one of the best bakeries I've visited. From the moment you walk in, the space feels warm, welcoming, and full of that incredible fresh-baked aroma that tells you immediately you're in for something special. Everything looks beautifully made, and it's clear that a lot of care, skill, and passion go into every loaf, pastry, and detail. The bread is truly outstanding: rich in flavor, perfectly textured, and the kind of bread that reminds you how exceptional simple ingredients can be when they're handled by people who really know what they're doing. The crust, crumb, and freshness are all spot on. Their pastries are just as impressive, with that perfect balance of beauty, flavor, and craftsmanship. Nothing feels mass-produced or ordinary. What really makes Tabor Bread stand out is that it feels both elevated and genuine. It has the quality of a place that takes baking very seriously, but it still feels approachable, neighborhood-friendly, and full of heart. Portland has no shortage of good food, but Tabor Bread absolutely stands out. If you appreciate amazing bread, thoughtful baking, and a place that clearly cares about quality, this spot deserves every bit of a five-star review. read more

Charming little bakery that specializes in local whole grain & naturally leavened sourdough baking. We came on a Saturday morning and there was a line (as expected) but it moved fairly quick. There are so many baked goods to choose from we ended up getting bagels and some pastries to take home. Great quality stuff, will be back for sure! read more

I love a good lox and this place delivers. My only complaint is that I wish the salmon portion was a little more generous but the flavors still pack a punch. Their pistachio croissant is flaky and filled with pistachios so can't complain there. The ladies taking care of us were so friendly and helpful. I need to come earlier to grab a table next time because this place gets packed especially on a weekend. read more

Wow, thanks Tabor Bread; I came here this morning and now I have to sell my house and move within walking distance of you because you're SO good! Spectacular breads, sandwiches, pastries and coffees! My dining companion and I shared a breakfast sandwich which was on a glorious poppy seed bun, had aioli, microgreens, red onion, sautéed mushrooms and we chose avocado over the alternative breakfast sausage. We also had our egg over hard since we wanted to cut the sandwich in half and it was perfectly prepared. Latte and cappuccinos were as delightful as they were beautiful. Exceptional service by all staff and very clean restroom was appreciated. read more

This is the kind of place that you feel grateful to have in your city. Fresh bread and pastries, and kind service. It's the simple things here that will make you smile. The menu is small, but the bread speaks for itself. There's indoor and outdoor seating, and there is usually a line...so come early! We tried the chicken sandwich, lox, and the orange vanilla matcha. Everything was delicious! We even took home some garlic rosemary loafs for tomorrow morning. read more

Tabor Bread has a great selection of bread and some delicious coffee. I usually wouldn't care a ton about this but after a few visits I wanted to highlight that their menu is very unclear! I had to just guess what I could order because it wasn't laid out at all! I asked my friend what they had to offer my first time because there was a long line and I didn't want to take too much time from the cashiers. The workers were very nice and answered all my questions but I just wish it was laid out clearer. Very cute space and warm vibes but need more clarity especially during a rush! read more

*** updated- big fan of the bagels here and the new salted maple donut. Definitely try it out read more

3pm daily great place to work from if get here early! it's very charming inside & in a charming neighborhood. all top quality wheat & ingredients, milled in house, healthy but a tad pricey. for example my chicken sando was $17. then again, quality is very high! Honestly one of the best sandwiches & salads I've had in Portland. One request: give a big more of that delicious side salad! Portion is a bit small & it's so good. In fact I'd love to see a larger berrio's as its own menu item, it's that good! i got here at 2pm and much seemed sold out (prob a good sign!) so i recommend coming here earlier in the day to have more to choose from. read more

If you're willing to stand in line and pay a relatively premium price plus a 15% gratuity, Tabor Bread can't be beat. Their loaves, buns, bagels, and assorted sweets and savories are both lovely and simply delicious. We particularly like their seeded loaves and buns as well as their chocolate and almond croissants. As advertised, Tabor Bread specializes in 100% local whole grain and naturally leavened sourdough baking. The difference between this bakery and others is the wide variety of baked goods offered, and the products themselves, their chew and their taste. Certainly worth the time and price. read more

This was my first time at Tabor Bread and what a wonderful treat! We came near closing but they still had some food available. The bagels were fresh and so tasty! The coffee was amazing as well! The perfect little brunch spot truly. I was able to buy a loaf of French bread to take home and that was just perfect. I love Tabor Bread!! read more

I can't believe it took me so long to come here and I'm officially obsessed now. I didn't even try a sweet pastry yet! Just their insane bagel sandwiches. I brought my parents when they came to town and we got there around 9 to a minimal line. By the time we left the line was out the door! The cutest mugs for coffee and plates etc and ambiance! Love!! read more

After a hearty walk at Mt. Tabor we headed to Tabor Bread for breakfast. The everything bagel with lox was very filling. Plenty of salmon to share with my wife. Their coffee was also very good. Inside was very tight, as it was very busy and there is limited seating, but there is a a couple of tables outside in front, and a couple outside in the back. The store itself is very cute and the bakery behind the counter was bustling. The service was quick as we sat outside in front to enjoy the weather, and the bagel & lox. read more

A cross between a European bakery and a Portland coffee house. In one of Portland's nicest neighborhoods to boot. I had the breakfast sausage brioche and it was amazing. The pastries are divine, fresh and unique. They make them. Not a ghost kitchen. The coffee is spot on. You can buy all variants of specialty flours and sourdough starter too. It's a wonderful place to visit. read more

It was a beautiful spring day so we decided to go for a walk at Mt. Tabor. I'd been dying to get my hands on some Tabor Bread, so we decided to stop here first. There was a small line, but it moved quickly and we were able to snag a table with no problem. My daughter and I both went with a garlic cheddar bagel with herby cream cheese. The bagels here are some of the better bagels in the city - nice and crispy on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. The herby cream cheese had big chunks of dill and green onion, it was very flavorful with a little drizzle of olive oil. My husband went with their Belmont breakfast and bagel and seemed to really enjoy it. We also shared a sweet brioche which was half cherry and half lemon on a beautiful and fluffy brioche. Their pastry case is hard to resist, so don't! I also got their tiramisu latte, which was probably the best latte I've had all year (and I've had a lot). It had the perfect amount of chocolate and a little smear of mascarpone. Definitely worth grabbing a coffee here! We will definitely be pairing this spot with future Mt. Tabor walks. I'm already looking forward to our next visit! read more

My husband and I went late on a Tuesday morning and were very surprised to see a line out the door. It must be good if there's a line at 11a Tuesday?! Turns out, it's just slow and understaffed. We waited 45 minutes for a bagel with lox. They also "oversold" the bagel flavor so we didn't even get what we ordered. I had a "sweet brioche" thing with lemon curb and raspberry but it wasn't very sweet. I kind of dry and I guess I just don't like sourdough with sweet stuff on it. Also seems way overpriced. They have an $18 breakfast sandwich!?! read more

I got a jalapeño bagel with the herby cream cheese & the vanilla donut due to high popularity :) The bagel was good, although I would argue that Seize the Bagel is honestly just as good, especially for a way lesser price. However, the vanilla donut! Oh my, it was perfectly fluffy & not too sweet. My friend who doesn't even like donuts enjoyed this. There's almost a hint of cinnamon or cardamom, which I loved- the ratio of icing and donut was perfect too. She also got the veggie sandwich that had squash, goat cheese, arugula, and pickled onions- SO YUMMY. even cold, it was so flavorful and not dry at all. next time i visit i would rather get the sandwich and skip the bagel, even thought it was really good. you can tell they use quality ingredients. overall honestly a great brunchi would visit again just for their pastries read more

Small but cozy bakery. Tasty breakfast brioche! It was savory and the bread was soft. I also had the pistachio baklava croissant was delicious as well. The doppio was very good as well. The staff was super warm and welcoming. I'll definitely come back to try more items. read more

I ordered the Foccacia of the day, Buckwheat Chocolate Cookie and Mom's Chicken Sandwich. Everything was delish! They were out of ham and cheese croissants by 11 AM. The chicken sandwich was a bit bland. Tomatoes and a Spear Pickle on the side would have made it much better. However, the sandwich bread, house made, was very good! It would have benefited with more shredded chicken, though. They also put potatoe chips in it. If I would've known that, I would have asked to put the chips on the side...Just saying! Be aware that they put on a 15% tip on your tab, even if you get your order to go. my total came to $32.20 for those 3 items. I had to wait my own table... so much for working for your tips! The Shredded Chicken Sandwich (Mom's Chicken) was $17 alone! It was tasty enough, but not worth that much! I highly recommend any of the breads. They use high quality flours, grains, as well as being non gmo. I just think "tips" should be optional upon service. Thus, one star deducted from my rating. read more

I went in sight unseen! Saw / heard a recommendation and Tabor Bread ended up on "the list" of things to do! I'm newer here and REFUSE to lean into the grey season I have an ongoing list of things and today was a celebration kinda day. Parking is a tad spicy so be patient and keep a sharp eye... I went round at least 4 times and I'm ok with this, did you see the pics?!? Ok so step into this small /quaint shop with windows covered in condensation... the warmth and delicious smells meet you with a hum that says busy good. I stand in line and gaze about at all the delights. There are books, and a menu to keep an eye on as you advance... but the fridge had something labeled passion fruit?!? What is it?!? The bagels are a secret until you reach the front of the line. Sesame bagel for the loxsmith and the winter sweet danish. Shareable and with the wait read more

Quality bread, quaint atmosphere and decent pricing. For a small lm place they had a lot of seating. Walk or street parking only.

FINALLY Portland has a naturally leavened bake shop (that isn't Ken's - no offense to Ken, but I prefer Tabor). I agree with Kim - I can indeed live on bread alone, and often do. I bake at home - a lot - and frequent renowned bakeries all over this star-spangled land (I go a lot of places) and Tabor Bread holds its own right alongside Hewn Bakery in Chicago and Tartine in Frisco (I'm from there so I can call it whatever I want, up to and including Frisco). I've quickly made Tabor Bread a regular stop on my weekly provisions pickups, and I stock up on loaves, bagels, and always by a little treat or two while there, whether in the form of a sandwich or a sweetie. The ambiance is pretty a-ok, too - if it's in the middle of a rush, which it often is, you'll have a hard time finding a place to sit and enjoy a coffee or toast; and you may wait in a very long line at times, but it's cozy and the people-watching is really spectacular. Plus, the yeasty bready smells wafting from the kitchen can't be beat. My only complaint is I do wish they'd get a bread slicer - I'm prone to slicing off my digits at home so would love to outsource this task to a precise slicing machine. read more

I finally got to visit Tabor Bread in their new location at the corner of Belmont and 45th! They've been there for a while now (since Jan 2023), but I had only visited them at farmers markets for the past little while. Their new spot is super cute. It's got big windows, it looks like there's plenty of space for baking in the back, and it's got cute decorations throughout. There is a bit of both indoor and outdoor seating. They still make some of my favorite breads and pastries in the city! read more

Local flour, organic sugar, sourdough (good for digestion) croissants, bread, sandwiches, desserts. I think if you want a treat, this place offers the healthiest options available in town. They're on the expensive side but you expect these prices for the high quality of ingredients. They're very friendly too! read more

The prices at Tabor Bread kinda seem egregious because they include gratuity. Gratuity for what? I'm ordering a to-go order. Maybe they are trying to give their several workers a fair living wage, but there are two people working the front, several people working the back, no line on a Tuesday morning and 1 person eating a croissant at a table. No line, there was however a 10 minute wait for a bagel with cream cheese and butter. When I ordered the bagel per my wife's usual preference, the woman working the counter warned me not to get butter and cream cheese. This is a first. I've ordered a bagel at countless places this way and never been turned down but here we are. I ordered a croissant and pistachio morning bun for myself. The croissant is amazingly soft in the middle and crisp on the outside but there is a huge tell. It seems like they freeze their croissants after shaping which makes the outer shell flake into impossible bits. There are so many flakes they have formed a pile. This is a problem even in Paris and as I was once told by a Parisian taxi driver. Fresh croissants are hard to find even there. The pistachio morning bun is sweet from sugar and seems to have a syrup added to it but the flavor of pistachio is lost. The bitter parts of the pistachio are coming through, and here I was thinking this was going to be a sweet bun with all that sugar. Remember that bagel? It's here and it came in a box. Every pastry came in a paper bag, but the bagel in a box is something. It comes with a lemon wedge. Never seen that before. The bagel is soft and lacks a kind of chewy quality I'm accustomed to, from every other bagel I've eaten. 3 pastries and a bagel totaled almost $40. I'm getting tired of bougie bread. Baking is a working class job and working class people deserve good bread, but the prices here are out of reach for some. I search far and wide for good artisanal baked which brought me here based on a recommendation online. The listed prices are honestly fair for artisanal bread but for the price I expect perfection. The prices you see are not what you pay and that seems like robbery. There is a hidden mandatory gratuity fee that is most likely 20%. I don't mind tipping. It's part of American culture, but the pastries are falling apart as I eat them and I'm ordering to go which means no table service, all the worker did was argue with me about how to order a bagel and handed me a few pastries she gathered. I had to wait awhile for a bagel with cream cheese and butter, a rather simple order. How the croissants flake into bits is a huge tell. I wouldn't mind as much paying a mandatory gratuity if I knew someone was coming in early that morning, shaping and proofing the croissants a final time instead of freezing them. It makes it seem like the workers here want the reward without doing the hard work. If you have money to throw away eat here, but if you want to save your hard earned money and purchase artisanal pastries in Portland you can certainly find it elsewhere and get better quality. read more

Revisited again after many years and I think they've changed their location? The inside is modern yet so cozy and cute. We came to grab a country loaf but was gifted a huge Berry Donut which we enjoyed. The glaze on the donut was so gourmet and delicious. You can taste the berries for sure and the donut was not sweet at all. The dough almost even had a savory hint to it. Would love to dine in sometimes soon! read more

I must agree that the product is fantastic. But it's SO expensive. They charge 15% included as a tip. They don't tell you this. Then they have a tip basket and people do not realize they are tipping twice. This is VERY dishonest. I used to go there but not so much anymore. THey need to alert customers to the included tip and take away the tip basket. They used to tell us but no longer! Really????? read more

Tabor Bread is my husband's favorite bread, ever! However, even though the small staff is Portland friendly, it is small, too small to handle the business they have. How much could it cost the management, $20. an hour. That's one order at Tabor Bread. Anytime we go there, the line is out the door, which seems to be a thing here in Portland. However, 45 minutes plus and automatic 15% gratuity is crazy on a $12 loaf of bread, to go! Perhaps for those who are ordering just the bread 'to go' they have another line with one more assistant. Not rocket science.. If time = money, and time does = money sometimes. 45 minutes, plus $15 for a loaf of bread is more like $50 for a loaf of bread. Not sure we'll keep going back because the wait is ridiculous. However we may anyway, because Tabor is some of the best 'made fresh daily bread in Portland'... PS we're retired, yet still, who likes to wait, for bread... hummm??? read more

Loxsmith - yum. Tiramisu latte - delicious. Service - very friendly We were disappointed with the cheddar pain suisse. It had beautiful flaky layers but the overwhelming flavor was ground mustard.
