Our Story

Built on
simple conviction

Real 28 was born from a straightforward belief: people deserve access to genuinely good food without complication. On Washington Street in Lynn, we set out to create a place where handcrafted bread and quality groceries share the same shelves — because they belong together.

Every morning, our bakers arrive before dawn. Every shelf is stocked with intention. We don't believe in cutting corners or hiding behind labels. What you see is what you get — and that's the standard we hold ourselves to, every single day.

This isn't a trend we follow. It's a practice we've kept, and it's what brings our neighbors back week after week.
