Has Denver’s Restaurant Labor Pool Dried Up? | Eater Denver

"After closing for about a month due to low staffing, the Golden bakery at 429 Violet Street has reopened and restarted its wholesale arm; the owner notes bakers are particularly difficult to find, is partnering with the Colorado Restaurant Association to create a bakers apprenticeship, and used the downtime to interview, hire and train new staff while consolidating production and eliminating some of the most time-consuming products and processes." - Gigi Sukin

The Restaurant Labor Shortage Is Playing Out on This Baker’s Instagram | Eater Denver

"Located at 425 Violet Street in Golden, this bakery and wholesale supplier announced it will stop selling from its retail storefront on Saturdays while continuing wholesale operations. Owner Jeff Cleary, a 30-year restaurant-industry veteran, posted on Facebook and Instagram that the closure was "due to labor shortage," blaming a lack of staff and difficulty finding "competent" employees. The announcement drew sympathy from other bakers and chefs, while some commenters attributed the problem to Colorado’s marijuana industry or generational attitudes. The conversation also touched on wage pressures — noting Colorado’s tipped minimum wage was $7.18 in 2018 and set to rise to $8.98 by 2020 as the regular minimum wage reached $12 — and included a baker (@proofbread) who argued that higher wages often lead businesses to raise prices, calling labor the most expensive ingredient and supporting living wages but rejecting them as an entitlement." - Josie Sexton

🥖🥐🥯🍞🥖 Grateful Bread Company in Golden is hands-down the best spot for artisan bread and pastries. The chocolate Babka, sourdoughs, and croissants are always fresh and incredible. Get there early on Saturdays before they sell out—this local gem is worth the trip every time!

Just picked up my Thanksgiving order and it’s is amazing. Nibbling on the Orange Dark Chocolate Cookies , in between the Ginger Molasses cookies ,both are to die for. Trying not to dig into the Chocolate Pie that weighs about 2 pounds , Kathy sent some rolls as well. It’s going to be a very filling Thanksgiving,thanks to Greatful Bread . Thanks Jeff and Kathy!! Yuuuum!

What I adore about this family-owned business (beyond the quality and variety of artisan breads and pastries) is that you can see the wholesale bakery while you wait to order and they hire local high school kids who get experience during their Saturday retail hours to learn customer service. The outdoor greeter is always friendly and welcoming. There is a feeling of community. As another reviewer, Robert Powell, noted the appeal is the high quality fresh-baked products and opportunity to buy items normally only sold to restaurants. Go early (10-11 am) if you have a certain item in mind to ensure you’re there before it sells out. I’ve been going since 2015 and everything is delicious. I like to go closer to closing (2:30p) when there’s hardly a wait and choose from what’s left. Anything that doesn’t sell is donated to a local food charity that afternoon.

This is an absolute gem. There is no better bread Ive ever tasted. Of course, you must make sure you show up during the 4.5 hour window they are open per week - or else your week will be that much worse for not having the grateful bread to eat!! I truly think this may be one of the best sourdough bread producers in the country, if not the best.

Super fun experience. Had no idea how it worked, but everyone was helpful from picking a number & getting a clipboard to waiting "on deck" & going inside to the young ladies fulfilling our order. We tried a variety of items & everything was extremely flavorful. We will definitely go back next time we're in town.

The rating says it all. The products speak louder. The best chocolate Babka ever. The best rye. Lavender sourdough? Yep. Croissants, cookies, pain au chocolat...and on and on. Exquisite delights that are a feast for the eyes. Friendly, outgoing, kind and helpful staff. Retail customers can only get their fill on Saturdays. Get there! Share with your neighbors and friends.

I love this place, very much suggested bring your own grocery bags you can never buy just one thing! I got sourdough lavender, rye bread, cinnamon roll, sticky bun, and a  Chocolate Babka roll! Enjoy the photos, but more importantly go and smell the bread😂🤗👍🍞🥐🥖💜

YUM!!! My husband and I pre-ordered online for Thursday pickup and the process was very easy: I received an email and text as reminder for pickup, and once we arrived our order was right there ready to go, no line or wait. There is a $20 minimun on the pre-order. The rosemary sea salt sourdough is wonderfully flavorful, and the jalepeno cheddar batard is a MUST TRY. So soft and delicious. I cannot wait to go back and try more.
