Introducing The Elephantine Bakery, serving fine breads and pastries inspired by the Mediterranean. Coming soon (hopefully very soon!) to our new home at 10 Commercial Alley, Suite 2 in Portsmouth. The bakery is named after Elephantine Island in the Nile River, where an ancient Egyptian bakery was excavated. The trade of grain, much of which originated in Ancient Egypt, profoundly shaped the history, development, and culture of the Mediterranean region. We are still connected to these events and places through the bread we eat today. We bake using traditional artisanal techniques and are inspired by the taste and spirit of the diverse and dynamic countries that border the Mediterranean Sea. Open date and details soon! We are so eager to welcome you to our new space.
