Small-batch pastries, sourdough loaves, and pour-over coffee — made fresh each morning on North Mill Street.

First since day one
North Branch Bar started with a simple conviction: the best food comes from showing up early, using real ingredients, and treating every customer like a neighbor.
We bake our breads, croissants, and seasonal tarts in small batches — no shortcuts, no preservatives, just flour, butter, time, and a little patience. Our coffee is sourced from roasters who care, and our counter always has room for someone new.
Located on North Mill Street, we're proud to be a gathering place for locals and visitors alike — a spot to pause, refuel, and stay a while.

Batch-baked each morning
Every item on our counter is made the same morning it's served. Here's what you'll find when you walk in.
Sourdough, focaccia, and seasonal loaves — long-fermented, crusty on the outside, soft within.
Butter croissants, pain au chocolat, danishes — laminated and baked before sunrise.
Pour-over, espresso, and seasonal specials — roasted by partners who value traceability and craft.
Tarts, cakes, and crumbles that change with the seasons — always using what's fresh and local.
Sandwiches, salads, and hearty breakfast plates made with locally sourced eggs and greens.
Custom pastry boxes and catering for gatherings — from office meetings to weekend celebrations.
Questions, catering inquiries, or just say hello — we'd love to hear from you.
We'll get back to you as soon as we can.
