The fact that right when you walk into the Italian bakery, there is a sign that says "saturday beans" with a list of different types of beans/coleslaw/red hot dogs (a prized Maine food!) just squarely places you inside Lewiston Franco-American culture - and this is a good thing. I could never figure out why Lewiston has an "Italian" bakery - but I think it might be because they sell what we French-Canadians call "Italians" but what the rest of the U.S. would call a hoagie/grinder/sub. So, mystery solved? Maybe. I agree with the previous review - the Italian Bakery has The Best chicken pot pies, and also the best Salmon Pies (bless being Franco!!), which are available fresh on Fridays, or frozen otherwise . I grew up with the Grants' kids, so it's hard for me to bag on Grants Bakery - but I'd say they have amazing confections and that you should stick to Italian Bakery for your savory pies. I just love that this place exists. It's truly a cultural gem, and everything I've had from the Italian Bakery has been outstanding. I even brought a salmon pie (and some cretons!) home to Ohio for the boy and his brother to try... gotta represent!

I docked one to two stars because, as a person whose family owns a small, local business, I know how difficult it is to thrive in a setting of corporate chains. The thing that sets you apart is customer service, and good customer service at that. I come here quite frequently (weekly or so) and purchase relatively larger orders, mostly donuts, and take them to work for colleagues. I support the local Lewiston/Auburn businesses, farming community and markets, and enjoy my yearly CSA--because I know the impact that dwindling local businesses has to an area. I had finished an appt quite early on Saturday and figured I'd stop in to buy a cinnamon roll and breakfast sandwich (who am I kidding, and likely a dozen donuts). There was a line that wrapped around the back of the store to the register and a couple purchasing donuts. I asked the woman in front of me if I could order my donuts first (perhaps a separate line behind the couple?) as I thought that maybe the first line was for hot foods, desserts, etc. She didn't know, so I stood behind the couple purchasing the donuts and waited. And waited. And waited. They left, and I stood there. And waited some more. A nice gentleman came in behind me, pulled some beans out of the fridge and waited with me. I asked him if he knew whether I had to stand in line or I could order my donut(s) there first. He didn't know, either. I tried to get someone's attention in the store, and the young girl right.behind.the.counter avoided eye contact. Look, if I should be in line, please, someone tell me, don't avoid the woman who's 30+ weeks pregnant and sweltering. Ten minutes pass, and the line is nearly out the door, and the women who were in front of me are paying for their loaf of bread. Finally, I give up and leave. Mostly, because I don't think I'll be able to stand the heat in there for another 15 minutes, and this pregnancy isn't all rainbows and puppies like people have you believe. Maybe I'm at fault for not creating a scene or asking for a manager, or interrupting the already busy workers and patrons to ask, but I think I'm a dying breed who was raised with manners, and wouldn't intentionally cut in line--I just needed someone to ask me if I needed help and direct me to where I need to be. And I wasn't the only one clueless. If I was in the wrong, tell me, don't avoid me. I find that rude. Another option? Put up a sign for idiots like me. I ended up going to Grant's Bakery, where the goods are a notch below the Italian Bakery, but the customer service was much better. Even in a busy environment. In the end, maybe I won't go back there, because I've worked on both ends of the counter, and my time and money is valuable, too. I know one experience shouldn't taint a place, but more recently, my lukewarm interactions there have been disappointing. I don't like mornings any better than the next person. But, some of these scripted TV shows about saving restaurants have hit the nail on the head: your customers are what keep you afloat.

I go here once in a while but definitely They have the best donuts in LA! No joke, these are baked fresh every day and there so fresh and full of flavor. Must try the Boston Kreme and Coconut donuts.

They have impressed us with beautiful pastry platters and sweet platters for every occasion we have needed! Their subs, pot pies and breads are fantastic! Coming from the N Y area originally ....pretty wonderful cannoli!!!! Don't just drive by ....stop and sample , you won't be disappointed!

Their donuts are yeast based so it light , fluffy and plain fresh and delicious. I prefer this over a more dense cake based donut. Besides donuts they have all sorts of different goodies for your sweet tooth. They also make Italians sandwiches, beans salmon pies and all sort of goodies. My to go place for donuts, and pastries. Try them it's a gem in Lewiston!

My sweetie: "What are you reviewing now?" Me: "Italian Bakery" My sweetie: "Oh Yummy!" Reportedly the best chicken pot pies in town (available every Thursday, in individual or large size). We've verified they're much better than those from Grant's Bakery ("blah"). The upper crust is flakey. The lower crust also a good texture and flavor. The filling is a little bland but this is Maine and we're talking chicken pot pies. A-/B+ overall. Good dinner rolls. Decent grocery-store-grade pastries. Daily offerings also include Italians, Subs, and Pizza. Daily specials include burgers (Wednesday), Salmon Pie (Friday), and Beans and Slaw (Saturday). Open 7-5:30. Closed Monday. Closed Sunday afternoon.
