Fornax Bread Company

Stoped in for dinner. Had the best Greek Salaid ever!Took home a small, thin crrust pizza With fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and balsamic vinegar. My daughter loved it. With the new owners bakery goods looked much better. Best of all I was greeted with warm, smiling faces and treated very well. I will be going back often.

I've loved this place since I was a kid. They recently went under new management, so the place feels a bit less homey and cluttered but is more aesthetic and clean. I love their bread, and their combos are honestly so worth it! The service is amazing! I got a combo for pickup, and my salad was missing its chicken. I let them know, and they offered me a fix! I wasn't able to come in until 4 days later and the lady at the register remembered me and the salad. 10/10 spot! It's like a hole in the wall but I love it! 100% recommend!!

I was exploring Roslindale with my son and we had an amazing dinner and were walking around for dessert when we saw what appeared to an extremely promising bakery. First thing I noticed was that I wasn't greeted by wonderful bakery aromas. I assumed because it was late in the day and they probably weren't actually baking anything. But the shelves were full of lovely looking breads and the cases full of pastries. So much so that it took us a while to decide. The young lady at the counter could not answer a single one of our questions about any of the pastries. She asked the gentleman behind her who also had limited knowledge of the pastries. He did know the breads however. We love sourdough so we bought a lovely looking loaf as well as three pastries. Upon arriving home for our desserts, we both were disappointed. They looked fantastic, and they were reasonably priced, but there was something missing in the nuances of flavor and texture in every part; filling, icing and the base cake. It reminded me of what so-so supermarket pastries used to taste like 20 years ago. Neither of us continued eating our pastries. At least we had the bread. The next morning upon trying to cut it, we found it hard straight through ( I mean as if we had left it for three days on the counter without bag or cover) except a tiny, tiny section in the middle of this large loaf. And the little bit in the center we tried had only a pale hint of a sourdough taste but otherwise bland and claggy. We threw it all away. I remember being impressed at the store that the prices were extremely reasonable for such lovely looking things, but I would have paid more for a better experience.My favorite pastry shop in my neighborhood has a sign that says their breads are from Fornax. I have never bought bread there and now won't.

Really nice bread place in Roslindale. Has a variety of type of breads. The challah is top notch, nicely braided, with a good chewy texture. The ham and cheese croissant was decent, though some of the layers of croissant were more dense than I had anticipated. The baguette was rather unique - a bit denser than usual but enjoying the outer crust.

Came here for the first time today and was very impressed. I initially came in for cupcakes for myself but wanted to try other things if they looked appealing.I was greeted once I came In by a very nice young woman who was super helpful as a first timer. She was gracious and happy to help me, such a true rarity in Boston these days. I liked the cupcakes, but I actually think the homemade Oreo cookie and the banana bread were the strength for me.Lovely! I wish I got more banana bread when I was there!!!!

Stopped here while visiting friends, not enough seating for our party but I picked up bags of the English muffins and Welsh cakes to bring home. Absolutely delicious! Welsh cakes were like a scone-like biscuit with dried cranberries, fine buttery crumb, sooo good toasted with European butter. The English muffins were an appealing yellow color with a delicious yeasty flavor that was incredible with sausage gravy, sage, and our own sunny egg. Hope we get an invite back so we can return soon!

Delicious, homey baked treats. Food I've tried:- WALNUT CURRANT SCONE ($2.95): very nice and crumbly scone - simple, yet delicious. - BUTTERMILK BISCUIT ($4.50): this is a crumbly biscuit, with a bit more springiness in the dough than the scone. Initially I thought that the dough was a tad too salty, but the more I ate, the more the salt paired well with the butter. - For the price, both pastries were generously portioned, especially the scone. They have rotating scone flavors throughout the week. I was also sad to find that at times my two favorite pastries (scones and biscuits) were sold out by the end of the day when I visited. Atmosphere:- Small amount of seating inside, around 3 tables. It is definitely a take out place rather than a dine in location. Decor is very homey. Service: - The staff are friendly. Overall:- Great bakery, with delicious bread for a reasonable price.

I adore this place. They have done some renovations and looks great & quaint. Their staff are so sweet and welcoming. I admire them for working through the recent heatwave to make their customers happy and satisfied with their scrumptious food and drinks. (Fornax staff - you guys are all amazing!) They recently added matcha latte to their menu among several other delicious drinks!! I love their sandwiches as well as my family. We also appreciate their sweet treats for the kids... and the adults too ;) They do have vegan options in addition to gluten free options for those who are wondering and looking! Must stop if strolling through the village.

The bread is delicious! They have a very wide variety of cookies and treats that are good!The classic chocolate chip was my favorite.

Under new leadership and ownership, this bakery is really shining! All the same classic recipes and menu, but the place has been seriously cleaned up. Can't wait to go back. The bread and sandwiches are delicious! Sandwiches used to take forever to come out, but now they're prompt and still just as delicious!
