We came to Montana Gold Bread Co. to pick up dinner rolls for Thanksgiving dinner after reading some rave reviews. We walked into a busy shop with lots of options for breads and baked goods on shelves and racks all around the bakery.
We chose the Old fashioned dinner rolls and the Challah rolls, as well as some honey butter. When checking out, we were graciously offered a sample of some delicious looking breads and baked goods that were on the counter for the purpose of sharing. This was such a lovely and smart gesture for Montana Gold. Instantly we were able to sample the incredible quality of their fresh baked breads, and instantly we were pleased and excited about our purchase. Everything we tried was exceptional, but their sweet potato bread stood out as phenomenal, perfectly sweet without being a full-on dessert.
Our rolls were a big hit at dinner. Both the Old Fashioned rolls and the Challah rolls were incredibly fluffy and had such a nice texture and taste. The honey butter was also a nice touch. I would love to make this a tradition for Thanksgiving, but I know weโll be back to Montana Gold whenever weโre in the Richmond area. Definitely a Richmond gem and staple.
A CaryTown Diamond that I am giving my 5 pin ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ Award! It was a very warm welcoming place. The gentleman at the register greeted us with a Smile ๐. The aroma of fresh cooked bread made my senses go wild. I stopped in to buy some banana bread. Wow, it was good! You see I've been buying their banana bread at various stores, but today I went to the bread maker store. It smelled so good that we decided to buy our lunch and eat it there. And then the rain came down. It poured something hard...the rain came down. We had a fun time and was made to feel right at home. Check out my pictures, like and follow, and yeah give someone close to you a big big hug. It will make them feel really good ๐
After learning that Constance Wu worked here from her book, "Making a Scene", this has been on my bucket list to visit. They use fresh ingredients and make their dough in-house.
It's a very friendly, easy-to-park bakery where one can buy all sorts of bread, cookies, buns, and other baked goods with soft crusts. The staff were incredibly affable, providing lots of great suggestions and a lot of fun to talk with.
There is a dining area and a restroom for one to build and enjoy sandwiches. They also give free samples which convinced me to buy some hot cross buns.
This local bread/ bakery store still is going strong after 28 years! I still remember when this store opened back in 1994 and like how itโs improved since then. It operates like a well oiled machine, and everyone I saw there appeared very industrious and attentive. I bought several of their cookies and was offered a free fresh baked bread sample. I chose a slice of black Ukrainian bread. Delicious!
Lovely local bread bakery that offers a selection of sandwiches, loaves of bread, cookies, jams, and other treats. The gentleman who assisted me gave me a free sample of banana bread and it was very yummy. I also enjoyed the chocolate chip oatmeal cookie.
As soon as you walk through the door and smell the food you realize you're buying something! Very friendly staff that were helpful from the moment we walked in the door. Samples enticed us to purchase a couple of loaves we weren't considering before arrival. The Cinnamon Walnut Raisin bread was excellent, bought it. The Cinnamon swirl bread was excellent, bought it. Even the Gingerbread cookie was delicious with just the right amount of spice, bought it. We also purchased a cinnamon pecan roll, wish we bought 2! Lastly we got the 9-grain and look forward to enjoying it when we get back home to NC. Not one bit disappointed in any aspect of our visit or purchases.
Wow!! I forgot lunch and ordered delivery. Very impressed. The sandwich is large and don't skimp on toppings. I got chicken salad excellent just right balance of ingredients. I have big appetite and only got through half. Had the other half for late supper.
Side of potato salad and large cookie.
Got bread pudding with raspberry. Huge! I shared most if with office.
Found the bakery online and I am so grateful. I purchased a box lunch, oatmeal raisin cookie, peanut butter cookie, a cinnamon roll and a loaf of cinnamon bread. The staff was delightful! Friendly and helpful and willing to provide several sample slices. The turkey swiss sandwich was huge and fresh and the mountain herb bread was amazing. A new favorite stop when I come to town. Actually worth driving to town just to stock up. I live almost 2 hrs away too. Worth the trip!
Iโve lived in Richmond for a little over 2 years and Iโve never stopped by until today - what a mistake! I read about Montana Gold in Constance Wuโs memoir, and the way she described the love and attention that went into their products convinced me. The store was warm and cozy, and the gentleman that helped me at the counter insisted that I try the samples. They had an amazing candy cane chocolate chip cookie - and it was vegan! If youโre looking for vegan goodies, this is definitely the place to go. I had no idea until he told me. It is clear this business values the community and its customers, and I canโt wait to become a regular.
If you have not been to this store you need to go. Everything is very delicious. I got a multi grain bread loaf, also assorted cookies, cinnamon roll, and garlic knots. We also added banana bread and pound cake. Their prices are very reasonable as well. We also got a jar of apple butter barbecue sauce which was reasonably priced as well. I would highly recommend making this one of your weekly stops to get bread. They also had muffins as well. We will definitely be back.
