Fresh bread that makes your kitchen feel like a five-star restaurant every day.
Handcrafted sourdough loaves, flaky pastries pulled from the oven each morning, and a thoughtfully stocked grocery counter — all at 863 12th Ave NE in the heart of Norman.
From our oven to your table
Every item is made with intention — simple ingredients, time-honored techniques, and the kind of care that only comes from doing it right, every single day.
Bakery
Artisan Sourdough
Long-fermented loaves with a crackling crust and tangy, open crumb. Baked fresh every morning — when they're gone, they're gone.
Bakery
Handcrafted Pastries
Flaky croissants, fruit tarts, and seasonal specials made from scratch. Every bite is layered with real butter and attention to detail.
Grocery
Curated Groceries
A thoughtfully selected pantry — olive oils, artisan cheeses, local honey, spices, and staples you won't find at the big-box store.
Bakery
Specialty Breads
From dense ryes and seeded loaves to sweet brioche and focaccia. We bake what Norman actually wants to eat — not what's easiest to ship.
A neighborhood place built on something real
The Palace started with a simple belief: that the food your family eats every day deserves the same care as a special-occasion meal. We opened our doors on 12th Avenue NE because Norman deserved a bakery that treats every loaf, every pastry, and every shelf item like it reflects directly on the name above the door.
That means sourdough that actually ferments long enough to develop flavor. It means pastries made with real butter, not shortcuts. It means a grocery section stocked with things we'd put in our own homes. It's not a marketing line — it's just how we operate.
The Palace has become our Saturday morning ritual. The sourdough is outstanding, the staff actually remembers our names, and we've discovered half our new favorite pantry staples right here. It's the kind of place that makes Norman feel like a real food city.
Come say hello
