The Scene
A one-of-a-kind space 5x larger in size than their previous spot, Aki's Breadhaus offers a German-inspired experience centered around their traditional baked pretzels, bread and pastries paired with a new wine-bar experience: WunderBar. The space brings together a bakery counter, wine bar and varied seating with a design that feels welcoming and unique.
Notables:
- Tile pattern inspired by traditional, gingham Trachten shirts
- Windows behind the bar looking into the bakery production area
- Custom millwork and hanging pretzel display built by Aki himself
