Pittsfield Rye Bakery

Welcome to the Pittsfield Rye and Specialty Breads Company, the Western Massachusetts home of superior craft-baked breads that are made with old world care and dedication to quality. Pittsfield Rye Bakery was founded by Charlie Robbins in 1929 when he moved from Brooklyn, New York with his original rye bread recipe. Now owned and operated by a third generation of the Robbins family, we continue the traditions that would make our grandfather proud. Pittsfield Rye and Specialty Breads is primarily a wholesale baker, although we do have a retail store that is open Fridays and Saturdays, from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. In addition to frozen dough, thaw & serve, and par-baked frozen breads, we provide bread to restaurants, hotels, schools, and supermarkets throughout the region. We have also been partnered with the Big Y World Class Markets for over 20 years, where you can find our Seeded Rye, Plain Rye, Marble Rye, Black Russian Pumpernickel, Berkshire Bread, and – coming soon – our newest bread, Honey Sunflower. You might also find us at seasonal farmers markets and craft fairs. We are a nut-free and kosher pareve facility using only the finest ingredients, expertly developed recipes, extended fermentation, and hearth baking. Our mission is to provide exquisite products and service that will exceed our customers expectations, focusing on the creation of breads and rolls that are essential components of a healthy lifestyle.
