ThoroughBread Bakery — Restaurant in Austin

Located next to convenience store with a small parking spot that has only 4 spots shared with other business, this grab and go place has some really delicious bread and cookies. Their cookies are a little more on denser bigger side, kind of like Levain style cookies except with more filling in the middle if you get a stuffed Ollie and not quite the crispy bottom that Levain bakery cookies achieve. I got their classic chocolate chip cookie, which was good and for being such a big cookie filled with chocolate chips I am glad it wasn’t overly sweet though you can definitely split one cookie with two people. I also got the Banana Nutella cookie which reminds me if banana bread decided it wanted to make a little sandwich with Nutella in the middle and then shaped in cookie form. It’s more of a doughy cookie than chewy or crispy cookie. We also got the chocolate peanut butter cookie and you better love peanut butter because the peanut butter is strong, but delicious. We also got the wheat sourdough loaf and the crust on it is incredible and I loved that they do the fancy markings on top to like one the bread/steam to escape (I should know what it’s called but I never got into my sourdough era). Even for being made with wheat four and having blend of seeds, I did not find it too overwhelming and found it delicious to make a grilled cheese and loved that even though it’s healthy it didn’t taste overly grainy or overly “healthy” if that makes sense. It had a really great crust and interior and some nice little bubbles. I also got the avocado, egg, and cheese burridough which I thought it was ok - I wish there was more filling, I found that the bread to filling ratio was more bread than filling, and wish the filling had more salt/flavor. I am glad it came with mild salsa to dip it in to give it that extra kick/salt it needed. Probably my least favorite out of everything I tried.

Parking lot wise they have a very small lot shared with other businesses. Don’t park at the convienient store next door. There is also street parking.

There is no eating inside, but they do have a small bench outside (unshaded) if you want to enjoy the treats right...

Honestly, just go there. Sweet tooth? Carb craving? Or just in need of some fresh, steamy, incredible sourdough?

Walk into this quaint little cubby of a bakery and get smacked in the face with that unmistakable aroma that kicks your salivary glands into gear. It's like something in your body knows when bread is done right.

Life Hack: buy a minimum of three loaves - The Car Loaf (eat on the way back home because you can't resist), The Sharing Loaf (the one you present to people at home who are expecting it), The Secret Loaf (one you don't have to share... you can just hide in the bathroom and stuff your mouth while they think you're taking a shower).

And the cookies? Oh sweet heaven, the cookies! I've never had cookies like theirs - the kind that make me spontaneously proclaim "yummy yummers" aloud... the kind that make you lie to yourself when your mind whispers that it's okay because you'll only have one. Big enough to share, but so good you won't want to - that's what they are.

P.S. Don't forget to grab a scone, too - all the carbs of the loaf, half the guilt of the...

I’ve been coming here for a while - I tell everyone they are the best cookies in ATX. I just came to buy 10 cookies for my co-workers because I want them to try them!

I cannot believe how my experience just went. Whoever the lady that helped me today was, she needs to be spoke to by her managers about customer service. She was extremely rude, rolled her eyes at me several times. I honestly couldn’t believe it - I was saying please and thank you… she was frustrated that I asked for a bag and she very sarcastically said “anything else?” Because she thought I was needy (only asked for 2 separate boxes because I’m giving cookies to 2 different groups. I said no, and to be honest you haven’t been very friendly and she had the audacity to reply and say “neither are you”. I was in shock.

This is unacceptable customer service… puts a very sour taste in my mouth about coming here. I hope her managers speak to her. She is working right now which is Aug 26 2025...
