Description

The Baker’s Table is a small-batch artisan bakery in the historic downtown of Parkville, Missouri — one of the Northland’s most picturesque and overlooked river towns. Everything is baked fresh on site in limited quantities using high-quality ingredients. Offerings include artisan sourdough breads, a rotating selection of pastries and desserts, breakfast favorites, cinnamon rolls, cookies, and seasonal specialties such as pies and cheesecakes.

Ownership and history

The Baker’s Table operates as a 100% woman- and minority-owned micro-bakery under owner and head baker Catherine Coughennower (of Frosted by Catherine Custom Cakes and Desserts). Catherine took over the space and has been building the operation with a focus on fresh, from-scratch baking in the heart of Parkville’s 19th-century Main Street district. The bakery’s presence contributes directly to the ongoing revitalization of historic downtown Parkville, complementing the town’s walkable antique shops, restaurants, and riverfront character. Its limited hours (often Thursday–Saturday) reflect the small-batch, hands-on nature of the business.
