Best Fresh-Baked Bread

Beyond Bread

Sick of plain old white or wheat? Beyond Bread offers more than 30 types of fresh artisan bread. On any given day, choose from baguette, ciabatta, cinnamon raisin, garlic Italian, multigrain, parisienne, rustic, rye, wheat or white--whew! And with each new day of the week, the list extends for the specials. Mmmm, nothing says Friday like a feta, spinach and onion loaf. Either grab a sandwich featuring your favorite type, or pick up a loaf for a week's worth of lunches! Perhaps the best thing about Beyond Bread's bread, though, is that it gives back. Every day, the Community Food Bank picks up leftover loaves and gives them to people in need across Tucson and Southern Arizona. That is some classy bread.
