Stone House Bread is located in Traverse City.

In you are in Leland, stop by the Stone House Bread Cafe for coffee, sandwiches and soups, fresh-baked scones, and more. The Cafe is open every day year-round.

Here is their story:

Northern Michigan's first artisan bread company, Stone "House Bread was founded in 1995 by former Detroit newsman Robert Pisor who for years had sought the perfect loaf of sourdough bread. His crusty loaves, made with organic flour, well water and sea salt are hand-formed, allowed to rise slowly and baked in a steam-injected German oven. They can be found on shelves of groceries and specialty food stores and on restaurant tables throughout northwest Michigan.

Our promise is the freshest bread in the North, made every morning with the finest organic flour—fragrant, crusty loaves with the sweet tang of sourdough. The baguettes and boules that emerge from our venerable Matador oven (built in Stuttgart when John Kennedy was president) will prompt memories of morning walks in Paris and Rome. We believe you'll say, with celebration: Now that's an honest loaf of bread!"

Their line of artisanal breads includes:

• Asiago Cheese
• Charnushka Rye (a dark rye with caraway seeds)
• Cherry Walnut
• Ciabatta Loaf
• Cracked Wheat
• Epi Loaf (eight continuous yeasted baguette rolls)
• Focaccia Loaf
• Garlic Fougasse
• Italian Loaf
• Kalamata Olive
• North Country
• Rustic Baguette
• Seven Grain
• Sliced Bread (in both wheat and white)
• Spinach Feta

• Sweet Baguette Rolls
