Love their French bread. (Best in New Orleans). Great for non New Orleans sandwiches like Philly cheese steak or Chicago Italian beef.

John Gendusa Bakery, established in 1922, has been a family-run business for four generations and is one of the few traditional bread bakeries remaining in New Orleans. Known for its signature Poor Boy bread, the bakery produces an array of baked goods, such as po-boys and muffuletta loaves, crafted using a recipe passed down since its inception.
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina's devastation, current owner Jason Gendusa and his father committed to revitalizing this historic establishment, maintaining its legacy in the community. While primarily a wholesale supplier to local eateries, the bakery welcomes neighbors to stop by for a freshly baked loaf through the classic screen door.
