Our Daily Bread

I love that they’re a local health food store and I love to support local. I always get their veggie juice when I go to the farmer’s market and we love their Italian bread. They’re also one of the few places that carry Inko’s tea and Kevita Kombucha. I also appreciate their deli with vegan and vegetarian options. The only problem I have with them is their quality control and cleanliness. Their produce looks pretty rough and I’ve seen bugs in their food case :(The store and shelves are always pretty dusty & dirty, and granted its in a very old building.
I bought some of their peanut butter cookies today which I had to return because they were very bland and dry :(the girl told me that it was because they were baked with all natural ingredients like honey. I told her «yeah I eat stuff like this all the time, it’s just not very good.» Peanut butter & honey cookies are supposed to taste delicious I’m actually surprised that someone could mess that up :/​bummer! Anyhow, it’s somewhere that I will stop on occasion to get some variety of things that whole foods doesn’t carry. Like energy bars, chocolate bars, tea and jerky that can be hard to find. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area :)

Now this is a neat little health store/​bakery. There is a good selection of food items for the more health-​conscious of persons. When I try something from the bakery it’s almost 100% guilt-​free because I know it’s made from natural ingredients. I even enjoy days at The Farmers Market downtown when I head indoors and get to purchase some sweet treats from Our Daily Bread. It is slightly pricey however this food here does the body good so I don’t mind paying more for better food.

Nice little shop, the customer service is great. I dropped by to grab some beeswax and they had exactly what I was looking for at a reasonable price. They also have a little eating café inside where you can order sandwiches or lunch items. It’s not on my part of town, but I’ll def try to stop by whenever I am in the area.

Bread’s good, pastries (cupcakes) blueberry and chocolate were bad enough not to finish– the chocolate was loaded with coffee. The package of blueberry muffins were loaded with cinnamon, regular cinnamon which can be toxic in those amounts. Cinnamon wasn’t even listed as an ingredient on our pack of four so it was quite surprising. Our lentil and kale soup came out cold, but we waited long enough and didn’t want to make a fuss so we took it home. We also ordered a quart of cabbage for new years that was apparently short. I brought this up to the two guys checking us out, and the older gentlemen just responded’ «so what, you think it’s short?!», and that was that. What an awesome way to run a business. Also wanted to purchase a few other things but they were either expired on the shelf or spoiled. Haven’t had a good experience since coming here and today will be the last. I love supporting small businesses, but this one is lacking– from the food, to the service; this one is quite subpar. Whole foods beats them in price, quality, and service by far. Was hoping to support local and not a corporation, but we’ve wasted too much money in our quest to find something that would redeem this place. ODB definitely has tons of potential and I hope they get their kinks out if they truly want to be successful.

They have the best protien powder! and healthy snacks!

Excellent selection of herbs, supplements, pure juices, etc. I picked up a bag of sweet potato chips. Delicious.

I know this place is known more for its bread and lunch/​sandwich counter, but I wanted to add that they have an excellent selection of vitamins, supplements, and tinctures. They have the best selection I have seen outside of a dedicated vitamin shop and its the only place I have seen in years with tinctures. I bought a good selection of vitamins and an anti-​viral tincture for cold sores. Prices are reasonable.
I have not had lunch here, but after reading the other reviews I will do so soon. I did buy some bread and it was very good. The only complaint I would make is that I would have expected a bit more different varieties of bread since that is what the store is known for, but it is a small place.
I will be going again very soon.

I was in Baton Rouge for a conferance where the catering people did not understand the word Vegan. After three meals of getting back a worse meal than the original, I left and found this little piece of heaven. You can so easily miss it. Thank God for Unilocal.I went twice in my three days. The food was fabulous and the option were many. The help was sweet, except for the first day, there was a preoccupied older guy who seemed inconvenience to help me get a sandwhich in the deli area, but it was worth the sandwhich. My next visit allowed me the chance to get a tofu burger that was awesome. So if you are ever in Baton Rouge and need REAL WHOLE FOOD… this is the place.

Excellent excellent food. The best part is it tastes great and it’s actually very healthy for you. The bread is delicious. The only thing is I wanted salt and couldn’t find any but that shouldn’t deter you from coming here. It’s totally a natural remedies environment and the people are chill and pleasant. This is the direction our countries food needs to go in!

I drive between Houston and N.O. 4x a week, and I’ve done this for nearly two years: I thought I was gonna have to commit hari-​kari if I had to eat another BK Veggie! I am seriously glad I found this place: the lunch specials are really good, the prices are fair, and the bread is good. Really, extremely good… I’m gonna stop there tomorrow on my way home!
