A visit to Greenhills Irish Bakery was one stop on our Saint Patrick's Day shopping run last Saturday. This time of year, we like to have a supply of soda bread and brown bread on hand.
With many places, this is the one time of year they make it. Greenhills has it all the time, and even late on a Saturday afternoon our breads were still warm. Click on the thumbnail views (above) to see more of their soda bread with caraway, brown bread, and scones– blueberry and raisin.
The service was warm and friendly, like we walked in there every day. The staffperson explained they only had soda bread with caraway seeds. We said that was the way we wanted it and other customers joined in the seeds vs no-seeds discussion.
In addition to fresh baked goods (and they do have far more than breads), they had a small display of favorite products for Irish ex-pats and those who love to try things from other lands.
