Martin’s Handmade Hard Pretzels in Lancaster, PA

Before machines made pretzels by the thousands, they were twisted by hand…

That’s how we still do it today. In our Lancaster County bakery, each batch follows the same hands-on process passed down through generations. You can see it in the way the dough is shaped, the way it bakes, and the way it tastes. It’s a slower method, but it’s what gives our pretzels their signature crunch and character.

From the farmland around us to the hands that make them, everything about our process is rooted in tradition. And once you try them, you’ll understand why it’s worth keeping it that way.

Martin’s Pretzel Bakery is a true classic. Watching hard pretzels still being hand‑rolled to this day makes the experience even better. Fresh off the line, they’re crisp, flavorful, and full of tradition—an absolute must‑stop for pretzel fans. 🥨

I was raised on these pretzels. We had a pretzel jar instead of a cookie jar in the kitchen. I don't live in PA anymore but I stop by the shop almost every visit. The staff is just as sweet as can be. Often offering a hot pretzel fresh out of the oven while you shop. Best pretzels on the planet as far as I am concerned.

What an amazing little store/factory! Upon arrival I was offered a warm pretzel and then offered samples of the flavored pretzels I was debating. They hand roll every pretzel and you can watch through the glass window. The chocolate covered pretzels are unmatched! I'll be back soon!

I’m from the deep south and grew up not even knowing what a pretzel was! And here is this dear, sweet little Bakery, making all these pretzels by hand! Keeping a business going that their parents started something like 75 years ago!And, this place has recently had a very nice makeover with one of the ladies getting involved to clean things up and spruce up the place. Let’s support this family business! I’m very impressed with it.😀

Wow what a great little spot. The owner showed us around the pretzel making factory and gave us a fresh pretzel to try. We were so impressed by the care and thoughtfulness of the owner. I would definitely recommend!

I LOVE Martin's Pretzels! They are so good. If you can, the honey mustard pretzels are the way to go! We just purchased a 10lb box of the honey mustard pretzels to share with our friends & family. We were able to ask them if they did 10lb boxes and the woman behind the counter said she thoughts so and next thing we know, were out of the retail space with everything we needed in hand!

Martin's Pretzel Bakery of Akron, PA is the BEST! I order the 5 pound bag of broken special hard pretzels with no surface salt. It's pretzel perfection delivered by UPS right to my door! This is all that's left. Pretzel dust. Time to order more.

Martin's are the best! One of the few places that have Whole Wheat pretzels. I order them online to have sent to South Florida. They are well packed and rarely have any broken ones. The customer service is Fantastic! See attached photo of shipping manifest. Now that's down home care!

This is the Martins pretzel Company where they make hard pretzels. It is a little bakery that has a retail outlet. You can buy all sorts of Martin pretzels flavors. They have a hug window to see the people making them. Nothing fancy but cool to see. We like good hard pretzels made with simple ingredients. You can buy 5 lb boxes of whole or broken pretzels. Good place to stop if your piddling
