"...it's the bread that has made Pain D'Avignon a success. The men now supply grocery stores, hotels, restaurants, and caterers all over New England. Olive Chase, a Hyannis-based restauranteur and caterer, says despite Pain D'Avignon's large distribution, 'they're able to maintain their quality and make beautifully handcrafted artisan breads.'"

"The ongoing support we receive every week from you and your store, in the form on many varieties of the best bread available on Cape Cod, has played a significant part in enabling Lower Cape Lunch to make a material difference in the lives of people who are in need..." -Stephen B. Elmer, LOCAL - Lower Cape Lunch
Saveur Magazine"The bakery's cranberry pecan bread is lushly studded with tart dried cranberries and more chopped nuts than should be feasible in a single loaf. Its baguette is perfectly textured, with a toothsome crust. Even the bagels — made in the Jewish-traditional style — have real flavor and a satisfying chewiness." -Saveur Magazine, February 2006
