Here’s what Lovefood has to say about Gaston’s...

“This small bakery in Boise may be mostly pastries but the bread it offers is equally impressive. It’s made with Idaho wheat that’s milled into flour, keeping the bran and germ for flavor and nutrients. The country bread (a rustic, open-textured loaf), Idaho wheat bread (made with 100% local wheat), and sourdough are all said to have a great crust and chewy texture, while the brioche makes amazing French toast.”

Gaston's has the perfect breads and pastries for your every day life, but it's also a great option for holidays like Easter coming up, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and so on.
