Fresh Market has some half way decent loaves - their best might rate a 7. I thought that with all the urban east coasters retiring here, there would be a demand for quality, but I guess not.
If you do not mind driving about 90 minutes south Mazzaro's has excellent crusty bread.

Pizza is not as good as NY but we have found places we enjoy.
