Where do you buy your bread?

I'm devoted to Yamazaki which has a branch at Tesco Lotus North Pattaya.
I also like Continental Bakery (various branches).
I'd like to try others.

[moonseeker]

Foodland and Big C Klang. Regards. MS

[chakatee]

Yamazaki +1, the fresh white bread probably one of the best but later on the day or next day I can't eat it anymore

Friendship (Tai) Best (Nua) if in the neighborhood there.

Big C extra, especially the baguettes when still fresh

Basement Central, the best, pity about inconvenient location

Foodland, unfortunately more due to convenience, not so much due to their quality.

Tulip at Soi Siam Country and the Thai bakery (that attract lots of its products from Big C extra) right across of Tulip

[andre47]

Food Mart Thappraya Road near where the busses leaves to Suvarnabhumi is for me the number one.

Jomtien second road BACK FABRIK

"The Loaf", Soi Len Kee near the intersection with Soi Buakhow. Great pastries as well.

[jes]

I would say Freindship. lots of different breads and cakes.

[n210mp]

On the darkside?

The continental on Soi Khao Noi has wholemeal bread which whilst reasonable in taste is overpriced

The Tudor cafe on SSCC next to the traffic lights at Mikamon OKA the crocodile X road is also OK but the bread opposite at the bakery delicatessen next to the motorbike sales is better and cheaper

Having said that I brought two bread making machines over from the UK and its about time I made my own again, nothing like the taste of home made bread

[OMGImInPattaya]

Big C Extra has a nice selection of European breads, Best in Naklua has a good selection of German breads, French rolls and baguettes, as well as pita breads. Au Bon Pain does a nice whole wheat and multigrain loaves, and even the local Farmhouse breads available at "7" and elsewhere now does a thick slice whole wheat and 12-Grain loaves, which are nice for sandwiches.

Friendship and Continental Bakery, get soft bread rolls from the German bakery place on Soi Chayapreuk.

​ Tops, these days even Big C and Makro make decent bread in Sisaket.

[SheungWan]

Friendship really is excellent.

[crickets]

Deli darkside. Crusty. Contintal bakerys bread is not fresh.

[prk888]

still the best bread and pastries on the darkside - Baguette 89 on soi 89 near Aroi (which incidentally does the very best international buffet including welcome drink and desserts at B299 on a Wednesday)

The only European bread worth buying is from Bei Otto and sold at Friendship or Villa market. Also the German bakery Back Fabrik in Jomtien has excellent fresh bread, but more on the expensive side. All other bread types sold here are just not up to the standards we Scandinavians would call a bread.

For all round choice and quality it has to be Friendship for me. I realise there are backer its that specialise in certain breads but Friendship has a very good selection.

Rather narrow minded to say, different people different strokes. Some of us don't like heavy German bread but don't tell others it's no good......

Is this something new from the usual sponge bread they sell?

Haven't seen it anywhere.

Its been around for a while, Foodland, "Seven," and anywhere that stocks Farmhouse breads gets some loaves of these as well. It's not up to artisenal bread standards but for grilled cheese or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches it fits the bill.

Haven't seen it anywhere, and I frequently buy the regular whole wheat from farmhouse from Big C extra or foodland.Will have a look for it

[mike2011]

a bread map of pattaya in a sticky would be an excellent idea. Let's be realistic: We go for quality and also personal preferences but at the same time are likely to make some compromise on convenience. A good bakery in Jomtien will remain treat for someone living near Pattaya Klang and he/she is more likely to buy the bread at BigC. Another aspect is the price/quality relation. I find the bakery in BigC Extra still ok although not as good as in the past due to their price increases.

[lemel]

I second the Baguette 89 French baker on soi 89 near Aroi restaurant, great bagettes, large and small, differeent rolls, breads and sweet delicacies! open from 6;30 am warm fresh bread .....

[bartender100]

Bakery at BigC extra, go a long way to beat their baguettes and breads, French baker still works there.

Yeah that's the stuff. Foodland definitely stocks it, and the whole wheat variety as well. If you don't know already, Foodland has a small bread section in the main part of the store where they sell breads from outside bakeries like Farmhouse...you won't find it at the bakery in front. (Top of the 1st isle from the dairy isle...near the sodas.) Most of the "Sevens" in my area also stock it. Very nice when fresh...sometimes I just eat a couple slices plain.

Yes!

Try the ciabatta.

[OMGImInPattaya]

The double-chedder jalapeño bagels at au Bon Pain are the bomb...and I'm not the only one who thinks so as they are often all gone by the time I get there in the morning. They also just introduced chia-seed rolls for any health conscious folks out there.

Sliced bread, the best thing after real bread

No problem , if you're from Scandinavia you would know what we miss here , the white bread or loaf is not really what we would call bread, especially if its full of sugar and other additives.

I have lived in the US and had to suffer through my studies, I ended up baking the bread myself.

I agree. Their bread is the best. That's the BigC Extra on Pattaya Klang.

Balo I too don't like bleached white heavily sugared bread but I believe here in Pattaya we now have a good selection of artisan bread, one of my favourites is a wholegrain Scandinavian bread that I buy from Friendship (I believe from the Flag on the packaging it's Danish). And if theres nothing I like the look of I will make my own, it maybe white but I know what's gone in to it.

Yes, their bread and pastries taste exactly the same as they would if you had bought them from a Casino supermarket in France. It's uncanny. (Casino is the main name under which they trade in their home country of France: presumably they dont use it here because of the gambling connotations.)

The baker in the basement of Central is also very good but a fair bit more expensive.
