Edit in response:
The muffin is great, sausage is good, egg is perfectly fine. But especially at $15 for a breakfast sandwich, the flavors need some brightness to balance them out, at least for the standard 'breakfast sandwich' option.
- Mayo
- Arugula
- maybe some tomato or onion?
- Other hot sauce (maybe a bit of a condiment bar?!)
I am nearby so I walk a few blocks home to add the missing ingredients and bring the whole thing together but it would be great if I didn't need to.

Original review:
Great (and large) english muffins!

I’m usually whatever about cinnamon rolls, but the ones at Leadbetter’s are pretttttttty damn good. The blueberry banana bread is also perfect — dense, not too sweet, and still moist the next day.

Very happy to finally have a solid pastry shop in the Castro!

I’ve stopped by a couple times and felt compelled to leave a review after my most recent visit. I had the Smoked Salmon sandwich (everything English muffin, cream cheese, smoked salmon, pickled red onion capers and some seasonings): it was the best smoked salmon sandwich I’ve had, bagel or otherwise. It was just incredible. I cannot recommend it enough.

My wife and I also love their cinnamon raisin English muffin with the homemade jam, the raspberry jam is just wonderful.

Overall: they have top notch English muffins and great baking here, and now I’ve learned can put together the best Smoked Salmon sandwich. Highly recommend for a casual breakfast/brunch!
