Located in downtown Salt Lake City, Vosen’s Bread Paradise is a little slice of Germany. It’s delicious fare, which includes white bread, bread bowls, a variety of rye and delightful pastries, grace the tables of individual homes and the area’s finest restaurants alike.

The location is right on bus route 2 and a short walk from TRAX.

Markus and Silvia Vosen opened the bakery in 1997 and it has flourished in the little yellow Victorian house located at  249 West 200 South (across from the U.S. Post Office).

In addition to German baked goods, Vosen’s also offers a wide range of German, Italian and French baked goods and imported groceries all for a reasonable price. Freshly baked bread starts at $2.

The bakery offers catering, retail and wholesale services. Special orders should be placed by 1 p.m. the day prior to pick up.

Like many European shops, this one is closed Sunday and Monday, but you can visit Tuesday through Friday 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. or Saturday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
