15 Essential Bakeries Around Boston

"Need an excuse to get up early on a Saturday? Let Sofra be that excuse. Lines form early before their 8 a.m. opening, but the glorious aromas of za’atar and perfectly caramelized kouign amann make the wait to get inside worth it. James Beard award-winning pastry chef Maura Kilpatrick offers an array of Turkish-inspired pastries made from New England grains, like the simit, a braided bagel covered in toasted sesame seeds. The shop also offers a brunch and mezze menu featuring Turkish çilbir (poached eggs over green garlic yogurt with fingerling potatoes and chili butter), olive oil granola sprinkled over labne with local honey, and baked feta among others. Browse their selection of Mediterranean spices, dips, and prepared foods while you wait." - Katie Draisen
