We are a small, local, independently owned bakery in the heart of the historic Five Points neighborhood in Athens, Georgia. Our goal is to engage with our community through baking hearth-baked loaves of bread and pastries. While we are primarily a retail shop, you can find our products at restaurants and coffee shops around Athens. We welcome you in to get your weekly loaf, a sweet treat, and an espresso while watching our skilled bakers in production or life go by in the charming Five Points neighborhood. With over 15 years of experience in bakeries and kitchens across New York City and Cleveland, Ohio including The NoMad Hotel, Bien Cuit Bakery, and The Great Northern Food Hall, Kevin is proud to be the successor of Thom Leonard as owner of Independent Baking Company.
