Our Story

Food that comes
from somewhere

Tri Town Foods was born from a simple conviction: that the best food doesn't need a long journey to be extraordinary. Located on Marlborough Street in the heart of Portland, we've built a destination where artisan breads, carefully selected groceries, and handcrafted provisions live side by side.

Our bakers work with real sourdough starters, stone-ground flours, and ingredients sourced from Connecticut farms. Our grocers hand-select every product on our shelves — from olive oils and artisan cheeses to pantry staples that actually taste like themselves. Nothing here is there by accident.

We're not a chain. We're not trying to be everywhere at once. We're here, on this corner, doing one thing with as much care as we can muster. That's the Tri Town promise.

The Craft

Time is the
secret ingredient

01

Source with intention

We work with local Connecticut farms and trusted suppliers who share our commitment to quality. If we can't trace it, it doesn't make the shelf.

02

Build and ferment

Our breads use naturally leavened starters and long cold ferments — 24 to 48 hours — developing flavor and digestibility that shortcuts can't replicate.

03

Bake and share

Every morning, our ovens fire up before dawn. By the time you walk in, everything is warm, fragrant, and at its peak. That's the standard we keep.
