ar·dor /ˈärdər/ noun the act of doing something with enthusiasm and passion

Ardor is a neighborhood restaurant & bakery focused on simple, ingredient-driven cuisine executed through old fashioned cooking techniques, preservation and fermentation.

The word ardor has multiple definitions, all related to the idea of burning.

Be it physical burning — in the oven or over an open fire — or an internal burning desire and passion, the word ardor embodies the evolution of Ardor Breads & Provisions, from its humble beginnings to its recent expansion.

Ardor was founded on the idea that every great meal starts with great bread, with grains that are locally grown and fresh milled. Naturally, the new restaurant menu is driven by the same standards, finding inspiration through old fashioned cooking techniques, preservation and fermentation.

At The Ardor Garden, one of the top farmers in the region is growing the highest quality vegetables for our menu with just seven miles to travel from soil to cooler. When sourcing, curating and preparing ingredients, quality of product will always come first.
