The bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on sourdough bread was really good. Heard it was a staple, and it did not disappoint. However, you should be weary of your surroundings in this area, as I encountered some violent homeless individuals.

Everyone should visit this place!
If you want to try ONLY the famous soup, then calmly take the menu on the ground floor, go to the cash register and for distribution, take any free seat and self-service! Convenient and fast!
If you want to try other dishes of this restaurant, then go to the SECOND floor, wait until you are invited to the reception and shown to a table. The menu is extensive and there is also a children's menu!
Parking: Parking on the street or covered parking, paid.

Recommended dishes: Clam Chowder in Sourdough Bread Bowl
The employees here are so kind and attentive. Food was amazing, salad was very fresh and bread was incredible as always. The soul is thick and hearty. Inside the establishment was clean and safe. Overall a great experience. The only disappointment is that they can’t offer parking validation, not even partial. We spent about $18 on parking because it was $6/30 minutes in the parking garage, and it actually took us a while to find the restaurant.

I tried the Clam Chowder and it was honestly disappointing. I didn't even finish it. Plus they didn't have the bread bowl... the price is the same... I would look for another place to try this dish
Their classic French dip is just roast beef on bread - no cheese. That's like serving a BLT without lettuce and tomato.

Had the clam chowder. Sourdough is ok, soup tastes good but with only a few clams and a lot of potatoes. Sourdough bowl is more like gimmickry and certainly a waste of food.
Service woman seems not friendly.

If your website is showing 10 minutes for a pick up time for a simple breakfast burrito, it’s NOT OK to have them ready in 25 minutes.

We had soups and butter croissants.
I understand that the bread seems exceptional to the locals, but in the end yeah nothing more. The concept of eating your soup in a loaf is original. But it stops there. The crust of the bread is nothing exceptional, thin and not crispy and 3/4 of the time the loaf ends up in the trash because it is too bulky. The butter croissants were not fresh at lunchtime (no crispness).
In summary, it doesn't break a duck's legs, a tourist fuss for not much.

Took us ages until we were able to book our order at the self-service. The staffed counter also wasn't quick at all. Food was good, but given the fact that this bakery is so famous, I would have expected more. Nothing special but good.

As soon as I entered Boudin Bakery, the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere immediately appealed to me. The bread, the true star of the house, is of exceptional quality, with a crispy crust and an airy crumb which demonstrate the artisanal know-how.
The dishes served on site are a treat for the senses. Each bite is a discovery, a blend of authentic flavors and freshness that delights the palate. Five-star service adds to the experience, with attentive and passionate staff making every visit memorable.
Located in the heart of San Francisco, Boudin Bakery is more than just a restaurant; it’s a culinary destination where every meal is a celebration of taste. I can't wait to come back to rediscover the delights of this unique place.
