Merridee's Breadbasket

Today Jim Kreider, Patti Jobe and an exceptional team of dedicated bakers, cooks and customer service staff, continue to provide local patrons and visitors from far and wide a truly unique and delightful experience. Everything is still made from scratch, the old-fashioned way - resulting in not only great taste but a nutritional product as well. You won’t find any pre-made mixes in this bakery – just bags of flour, whole grains and sugar, flats of eggs and cases of real creamery butter. It takes a lot of loving care to transform these staples into the delicious pies, brownies, cookies and breads you will find on the shelves every day. The menu includes the ever-popular chicken salad sandwich as well as tuna salad, egg salad and pimento cheese sandwiches, and a variety of grilled specialties all served on fresh homemade bread. In the fall of 2006 a full-service espresso bar was added, offering an extensive menu of old-world Italian style specialty coffees and espresso drinks. Merridee’s also features a daily variety of homemade soups, quiches, fresh salads and delicious desserts of pie, brownies, cakes and cookies. Merridee’s Breadbasket has been featured in Southern Living Magazine, on the Food Network’s “Best of Baker’s Show” on Nashville Public Television’s "Tennessee Crossroads" and has received the Sizzle Award from Southern Exposure Magazine for being voted Best Bakery in Williamson County… three years in a row! Come and see why Merridee’s continues to be a favorite place for local folks and visitors to gather and share good food, good conversation and good coffee.
