There’s a little bit of history in every loaf.

This historic Tamaqua bakery has been dishing out fresh, warm and authentic Italian bread and rolls since 1957. Padora’s Italian Bakery uses an ancient, coal-fired brick dome oven to bake what locals call the “bread of life.”

You can find Padora’s famous loaves in fine restaurants all over Northeastern Pennsylvania, and on many local grocery store shelves.
