PORTLAND FRANZ BAKERY TOUR PROGRAM

2025–2026 Bookings

Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at our historic Portland bakery! During your experience, you will have a guided tour and sample some of our delicious products. Perfect for guests ages 7 and up, this is your opportunity to see how the dough is made—literally!

What to expect:
      • Start with a short history of Franz Bakery and our roots in Portland.
      • Walk through our Portland Bakery with a knowledgeable guide.
      • See how Franz Buns are made—from ingredients to oven to packaging.
      • Enjoy tasty Franz samples and visit our Bakery Outlet to stock up on your favorites.
Please note:

Our Portland facility is over 100 years old. Tours include walking up and down multiple flights of stairs and passing by hot ovens. There are no elevators, and the environment may not be comfortable for all visitors.

      • Full-length pants or skirts (no shorts)
      • No visible jewelry or piercings (including facial or ear piercings)

These rules apply to all guests, regardless of age.
Guests who are not dressed appropriately will not be permitted to join the tour.
