2025 Best Bread: High Mountain Bread

May 13th, 2025 in Ellijay Restaurant Week

Congratulations to High Mountain Bread for winning Best Bread in the 2025 Ellijay Restaurant Week! 🏆✨

Tucked in East Ellijay, High Mountain Bread is a cozy local favorite known for delicious breakfasts and quick, satisfying lunches. Their shelves are filled with fresh-baked loaves like cranberry sourdough, croissant loaf, and their must-try classic country sourdough, crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and full of flavor in every bite.

For savory options, don’t miss the buttery croissants, everything bagels, and ham and cheese danishes. And when it comes to dessert, their blueberry scone is a local and visitor favorite, alongside sourdough chocolate chip cookies, sweet monkey bread, and other fresh-baked treats that make the perfect afternoon or morning bite.

Their breads are the base of some of Ellijay’s favorite meals. You’ll find them at Roo Mountain Vineyard’s sandwiches, River Street Tavern, and in the soft brioche buns served at Poole’s Bar-B-Q and Cress Creek. And if you’re craving a quick bite, try one of the fresh sandwiches made with their bread and thoughtfully prepared by Mountain View Artisanal.

Whether you’re picking up breakfast, a quick lunch, or a little something to take home, High Mountain Bread is an East Ellijay favorite you’ll want to visit again and again! 🥐🍞✨
