★★★★★ 5.0 Elder Harris · Jan 2026

I'm absolutely loving the bread here! The staff is always super friendly and kind, which makes the experience even better. My go-to order is the garlic, onion, spinach with balsamic vinegar - I got hooked on it thanks to a delightful employee who always makes sure I get the perfect loaf. Honestly, it's way better than the processed stuff you get from the store. The quality and care that goes into making each loaf really shines through. I mean, you can taste the difference when something's made with love, right? 😊 I've been going to this spot for a while now, and it's always a treat. They have a great selection, but that garlic, onion, spinach with balsamic vinegar is my top pick. If you're a bread lover, you gotta try it! The atmosphere's chill, the staff's top-notch, and the bread's, wel

In the heart of Lexington Center, When Pigs Fly has a large selection of fresh, yummy, artisan breads. You can choose to have your bread sliced and staff will put it through the machine. They also sell jams, oils, and WPF merchandise like hats and shirts. And don’t forget they have doughnuts on the weekends! They frequently have a promo of "Buy a $25 gift card, get a free loaf!". Each loaf is around $8-$9, so this is a great deal! There is a tasting station by the entrance of the door, where you can sample different kinds of bread with jam, self served. Staff is friendly. Store is super clean. No sit down tables, counter service only. Highly recommend you stop by if you’re in the Lexington area! Rancatore’s Ice Cream is right next door!

★★★★★ 5.0 Alex Kim · Nov 2024

In a quaint pocket outside of Boston, When Pigs Fly Bread is a sweet wholesome and delicious visit. We’ve been coming to this location for a few years and now and the bread and staff never fail to disappoint. There something about visiting a bakery where you can browse the isle on your own speed rather than having to make rushed decisions that feels so much more welcoming. I love how you can inspect and admire each of the seemingly dozens of varieties of fresh baked bread. You even get to (use a glove) and choose your own loaf! As you’re checking out the staff will give you the option if you want to slice your bread right there. Even if you can’t finish the whole loaf within a few days, all of their breads freeze well and are delicious toasted with butter. Our personal favorites are t

If you are looking for homemade fresh bread (definitely not from a supermarket), then When Pigs Fly Breads on Massachusetts Avenue in Lexington, Massachusetts is the spot for you.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Cameron Tylek · Aug 2023

Large selection of 'house made' breads. I chose two loaves and had them sliced. Staff was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the breads were on the heavy side, leading me to wonder where the breads are actually proofed and baked. My guess would be they're either baked in Maine and shipped to each store, or baked in each store from frozen. Edit: response to this review has confirmed they're baked in Maine and shipped to store.
