Companion Bread has been making craft breads and pastries since they pulled their first baguette from the stone oven in late 1993. By focusing on the 4C’s – their companions, their customers, their community and their company – They have built a small bakery with strong reputation for doing things right.

At Companion, they are the business of baking bread. But they are also in the business of supporting small growers and producers, encouraging sustainability, pushing culinary limits, even fostering friendships. To them, the creative process and the many people it touches along the way are as important as the loaf itself.

In 2007, USA Today named Companion one of the “Top 10 Artisan Bakeries” in the country. Today, Companion’s bread is served in more than 100 local restaurants, 30 Schnucks and Dierbergs, and the company has cafes in Clayton and Ladue.
