While it would be amazing to meetup and exchange bread and pastries, this isn\u2019t actually a bread club. Feels Like Home, the hospitality group behind Michelin-starred Mamani, Bar Colette and Namo<\/a>, is opening a bakery in The Quad in Uptown. And, on-brand with their other projects, this bakery comes with a quality-above-all approach.<\/p>\n

The 30-seat bakery at 2681 Howell Street is currently in a soft-opening phase and will have a grand opening on Monday, March 9. <\/p>\n

Calling Up Big Names
\n\"AThe Bread Club\u2019s Baking Director Peter Edris<\/p>\n

Feels Like Home recruited Peter Edris as its head baker for this new spot. Edris grew up on a farm in rural Pennsylvania and got a job at a French restaurant where he fell in love with the kitchen. He studied at the New England Culinary Institute and eventually landed in New York City, where he created the bread program at Aureole and was lead baker at Frenchette Bakery.<\/a> <\/p>\n

Feels Like Home might have the strongest scouting game in the Dallas restaurant industry. The group also recruited Christophe De Lellis for Mamani, which opened last year and quickly earned a Michelin Star.<\/a> Prior to that, they recruited Michelin-recognized Ruban Rolon to run its cocktail program at Bar Colette in the West Village, which was nominated for Best New Bar by the James Beard Foundation in 2025.<\/p>\n

Edris is marrying European baking traditions and Texas-grown grains. The Bread Club futher sets itself apart by using an in-house stone mill for its grains.The full menu goes beyond just bread, however. In addition to traditional loaves, there are laminated pastries, sandwiches, salads, sweets and more. <\/p>\n

Edris draws influence from travel through Asia and Central America, as well as a deep love of Italian, French and Mexican food. Leveraging those influences with Texas grains should make for an interesting program. <\/p>\n

Specific breads include:<\/p>\n

Texas Country\u00a0\u2014 Naturally leavened, house-milled Texas wheat
\nMilanese\u00a0\u2014 Saffron, Parmesan and crispy rice
\nBaguette\u00a0\u2014 Classic, or with sesame seeds
\nSprouted Quinoa\u00a0\u2014 Texas wheat and sprouted quinoa
\nFougasse\u00a0\u2014 Mediterranean wheat with green olives
\nCorn Pugliese\u00a0\u2014 Twice-fermented Texas corn and durum wheat<\/p>\n

Pastries and sweets include one of my personal favorites, a kouign amann, among others priced at $5 to $12: <\/p>\n

Chocolate \u201cB\u201d Croissant\u00a0\u2014 The Bread Club\u2019s signature pain au chocolat
\nKouign-Amann\u00a0\u2014 Caramelized Breton-style pastry
\nLemon Meringue Tart\u00a0\u2014 The Classic
\nSoft Serve\u00a0\u2014 Vanilla gelato and strawberry sorbet offered with pistachio cream, honey, chocolate syrup or hazelnut crunch<\/p>\n

There are also several sandwiches, priced from $13 to $17, including a jambon beurre, tuna Nicoise, grilled cheese and spicy chicken salad. <\/p>\n

Beverages, Too<\/p>\n

The Bread Club also has a full beverage menu. Signature drinks include a Pistachio Cream Top and an Einspanner Latte (vanilla-bean cold foam and cocoa). Everything is made on a La Marzocco machine. There are also matchas, drip coffee, cold brew and teas.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for something stronger (and aren\u2019t we all), there is \u201can eclectic selection of wine, beers and non-alcoholic cocktails available to enjoy on premise or take home,\u201d per a press release. <\/p>\n

The bakery\u2019s shop also has tinned fish, smoked fish, Spanish potato chips, Ib\u00e9rico ham, cured meats, olives, jams, honey, spices and more. <\/p>\n
