Our Story

A bakery built on
slow dough and
slow mornings.

Tikal Bakery opened its doors on Broad Street with a simple conviction: that the best bread requires nothing more than quality flour, real butter, patient fermentation, and hands that care. No shortcuts. No industrial timers. Just the rhythm of a working kitchen.

What started as a single oven and a loyal neighborhood has grown into Central Falls' gathering place — where commuters stop for a coffee, families grab weekend pastries, and regulars know the baker by name.

Every loaf we pull from the deck oven carries that same intention. Every cup of coffee is poured the way you'd want yours poured at home. This isn't a chain with a playbook. It's a bakery that learned its craft the way craft is supposed to be learned — by showing up, day after day, and doing the work.

What We Make

From the deck oven to your counter

Every item on our counter is baked in small batches, starting before dawn. Here's what our ovens produce most days.

Golden sourdough boule with a deep ear split, dusted with flour on a wooden board

Artisan Sourdough

48-hour fermented loaves with a crackling crust and open, tangy crumb. Our starter has been feeding the community since day one.

Buttery golden croissants with visible flaky layers arranged on a marble surface

Laminated Pastries

Croissants, pain au chocolat, and Danish — each folded by hand, each layer separated with French butter and deliberate patience.

A steaming cup of coffee with latte art beside a plate of fresh pastries

Coffee & Café

Single-origin espresso, pour-over, and classic brews. Paired with a warm pastry, it's the kind of morning that sets the tone for everything after.

Soft golden dinner rolls piled on a woven basket lined with linen

Dinner Rolls & Flatbreads

Pull-apart garlic rolls, focaccia with rosemary and sea salt, and ciabatta — perfect alongside soup, salad, or a glass of wine.

A beautifully decorated layer cake with fresh berries and whipped cream

Cakes & Celebration Bakes

Birthday cakes, sheet cakes, and seasonal specials — made to order with your specifications and baked fresh the morning of pickup.

An assortment of artisan breads including baguettes, pretzel rolls, and seeded loaves

Everyday Breads

Baguettes, whole wheat, brioche, and multigrain — the workhorses of the kitchen, reliable and consistently excellent, every single day.
