Artisan breads, handcrafted pastries, and a curated pantry — sourced with intention, baked with patience, and offered without compromise at 715 Ferry Street.
Every item on our shelves has been chosen or crafted with the same standard — it must be something we'd serve our own family.
Sourdough, country loaves, and specialty grains — each baked in small batches using traditional fermentation.
Croissants, danishes, and seasonal tarts — layered, folded, and finished by hand every morning before the bell rings.
From olive oils and artisan cheeses to spices and preserves — provisions that elevate the everyday meal.
Desserts that follow the calendar — rooted in what's ripe, local, and at its peak.
Pirates Den opened its doors in 2020 on Ferry Street with a simple conviction: the food people eat every day deserves the same care as the food served at their best meals.
We bake in small batches. We source from suppliers who share our standard. We turn down products that don't meet the bar — even when it's easier to say yes.
This isn't a chain. It's a neighborhood bakery and grocery on a quiet street in Dayton, run by people who believe that showing up with integrity every single day is the only recipe that matters.
We know where our flour comes from. We ask questions about everything that crosses our counter. If a supplier can't explain their process, we find another one.
Our sourdough ferments for 24 hours. Our dough is folded, not rushed. We'd rather close early than sell something that isn't ready. Good bread cannot be hurried.
We're not passing through. We're here — on Ferry Street — to be part of this community long-term. That means showing up, staying consistent, and earning trust daily.
