Local & Loved
Waverly staple
Proudly serving our community with ingredients sourced from nearby farms.
A Bakery Born From a Little Obsession
The Grumpy Grizzly started with one sourdough starter — a bubbly, temperamental culture that demanded attention every single day. What began as a late-night experiment became an early-morning ritual, and soon the whole neighborhood noticed the smell.
Today, we bake on Broad Street using the same patience and stubbornness that got us here. Every loaf is hand-shaped, every batch is fermented slowly, and every customer is treated like a regular — because that's exactly what you are.
Our grocery section features local cheeses, small-batch preserves, and pantry staples we'd actually use at home. If we wouldn't eat it ourselves, we won't sell it to you.

From Our Oven to Your Table
Every item on our shelves earns its place. We bake what we believe in, and we stock what our neighbors ask for.
Artisan Sourdough
48-hour cold-fermented loaves with a crackling crust and open, tangy crumb. Baked fresh every morning.
Butter Pastries
Layers of French butter folded by hand — croissants, pain au chocolat, and seasonal fruit tarts before they sell out.
Cookies & Confections
Chunky chocolate chip, brown butter oat, and seasonal specialties. Made in small batches — they never last long.
Local Cheese & Charcuterie
Hand-selected cheeses and cured meats from upstate New York farms. Perfect for your next gathering.
Preserves & Pantry
Small-batch jams, honey from local hives, and shelf-stable staples we trust. Tastes like summer in a jar.
Coffee & Drinks
Locally roasted coffee, fine teas, and cold-pressed juices. The perfect companion to our fresh-baked goods.
Behind the Front Door
A peek inside our bakery — the flour, the fire, and the quiet chaos of a morning well spent.
