Happy to have found this lovely bakery in San Mateo downtown. We love their sourdough breads, sweet and savory pastries. They have long lines on the weekends so prepare to wait at-least 10-15 minutes if you are getting coffee with your pastry.

Some of my favorites are “tomato girl”, “Kouign-amann” and “everything croissant bagel”. Their chocolate sourdough and olive sourdough bread are also very unique and tasty.

Hands down the very best patisserie / bakery / croissants place in the Bay Area. Absolutely perfection. I’m not just saying that: I’ve compared it to some of the big names in San Fran and beyond. It’s true, unadulterated French bake craft at its finest. Be there early morning or the best stuff will be gone sometimes even by 10 AM.
I lowkey think the mini chocolate croissant is the sleeper hit here. Pretzel croissant dough for a little extra chew and some salt to contrast and bring out the chocolate 🤌😚

Also complies with my harm reduction diet, 12oz coffee cup for scale. The back patio is lovely as well.
