Bread pudding reminded me what it is to be alive. Lady that took my order was super cool too.

Pretty much the best Fried Chicken sandwich you can get anywhere. Their desserts are seasonal so you aren’t guaranteed to get the one you want, but if at all possible try to go when the Bread Pudding is in season; that’s their best dessert.
If you're ever in the east bay, i highly recommend you check it out.

Bake sale Betty…… Mmmm Mmmmm DELICIOUS! this place gets packed and busy and the operation time is limited, so if you go there, it may have a long line, but they will get the orders in and out real quick. The chicken is tender and crispy, the slaw has a little spice since it has jalapeño’s in it but it’s a nice blend. If they have the strawberry short cake… GET IT!! ITS HELLLLLLLLLAAAAAA GOOD HAHAHA.

Oh my goodness, I had my marching orders here. I went to pick up several fried Chicken sandwiches for my daughter. This is one of her go-to spots whenever she comes to the Bay area. Also, I added a couple of molasses cookies and and oatmeal raisin cookie. That molasses cookie is worth going back for again and again!

Bakesale Betty was the first iconic place to serve gourmet fried chicken in the East Bay. Sandwiches come loaded with delicious slaw (no mayo), on a fantastic bun or in a salad.
Secret menu: Fried tofu sandwich. Might be better than the chicken!

Desserts to die for:
Strawberry shortcake
Strawberry rhubarb pie
Apple pie
Ginger cookies.

Only open limited hours, no seating.

If you love shortbread cookies this is the spot. I recommended the chocolate chip walnut. For me I love their pies. Their crumbles are so damn delicious. Also you wouldn't expect it but they have salads and chicken sandwiches which are fantastic.

If you haven’t been to Bakesale Betty, you’re
missing out on something truly special. I ordered the apple rhubarb crumble pie and the strawberry shortcake, and both were absolutely phenomenal.

What stood out most was the balance — not overly sweet, but rich in flavor and incredibly fresh. The crumble topping on the pie had just the right crunch, and the filling was perfectly tart and comforting. As for the strawberry shortcake, it was hands-down the best I’ve ever had — light, fluffy, and full of real strawberry flavor without being sugary.

I’ve had my fair share of desserts, but these two stand out as some of the best I’ve ever tasted. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re anywhere near Oakland!

The famous fried chicken sandwich is legendary for a reason! The line looks long but moves pretty fast. The coleslaw is a perfect touch
