Bread Baker

The Dixboro Project is an innovative and visionary hospitality concept situated in the historic village of Dixboro, Michigan. This unique establishment encompasses a variety of experiences, blending world-class dining, transformational hospitality, and an immersive connection to nature. At its heart lies The Dixboro House, a restaurant carved out from the original barn structure that dates back to 1880. This century-old barn has been lovingly restored, maintaining features such as exposed 140-year-old timbers, a gambrel vaulted ceiling, and the original stone fireplace, all combined with a modern kitchen designed to provide guests with a blend of rustic charm and contemporary comfort.

In addition to The Dixboro House, the project includes The Boro, a side-door takeout café offering woodfired pizzas, takeaway meals, expertly baked goods, Roos Roast coffee, adult beverages, and a variety of other delightful offerings throughout the day. The Bakery, forming a vital part of the overall operation, produces world-class baked goods such as signature cakes, savory quiches, and fresh bread used throughout the establishments.
