We definitely love our pastries and sweet treats here in Rhode Island. For a small state, we have a large number of bakeries, each with their own signature style. And you certainly won’t find anything quite like Village Hearth Bakery anywhere else in New England. This European-style bakery is one-of-a-kind.

Village Hearth Bakery is located in Jamestown.

When Village Hearth first opened, it served as a small artisan bread bakery with a takeout-only retail store.

There’s a lot to love about this charming place, but the most impressive part is the wood-fired oven that was built brick by brick.

If you love pizza, you’ll definitely want to stop by on a Sunday, which is Pizza Night.

If it seems like the pastries taste different here (in a good way) it’s definitely not your imagination.

Not only does this bakery serve the most delicious food (not to mention the addictive coffee and tea), it also happens to be a great gathering spot.

Village Hearth Bakery has limited hours in the fall and winter, so you’ll want to pre-order your treats as soon as the craving strikes.
