“I am so glad I stumbled upon this little place. I've driven past San Rafael. I don't know how many times, and never knew about this bakery!! Granted, they mainly have bread, their pastries/croissants were delicious!! I do have a gluten allergy, so my stomach is sensitive to gluten, but every once in a while, I cheat. Lol I was able to buy their extra sourdough 6 inch loaves and split them with my coworkers. I also got six different pastries for my coworkers, and they told me that they loved the strawberry croissant, blueberry croissant, cinnamon twist, cheese, croissant, and chocolate croissant! Everybody said how flaky the crust was, and how soft and gooey the middle of the croissant was! As I walked in, there was a nice lady that worked behind the cashier desk, and she had a really pretty eye make up on! I've never been able to do my make up, so I always noticed it. Lol she was very sweet and helpful but I asked what the difference was between The traditional sourdough and "extra sour sourdough, "and she said she only knew that the extra sourdough had to sit over a night and the other bread they could make the same day. I'm pretty sure that has something to do with the yeast since I bake, but I always kill yeast, so I'm better with baking soda and baking powder. Lol I digress, and it smelled delicious in there. A small little storefront, but a huge inventory of bread in the back! Quite literally forklifts were moving bread Around and delivering orders! Lol I will definitely be back again!!“
“This place is the best and I hope they never close! I grew up in the area but now live out of the country and my family has relocated to the east bay but I still make the 60 min drive all the way to Jelly Donut whenever I come to visit them. The owners are super friendly and generous, often throwing in an extra freebie too. We've tried 4 other donut shops in the east bay and none are even close to as good as these. Long live Jelly Donut!“
“We had the very best experience with baked blooms for our wedding tasting! Sarah was incredible! She reached out to help us with our tasting and set up cupcakes in our wedding colors. On top of everything, when we got stuck on the bridge and we’re late to pick up- they waited and made sure we got our cupcakes! The flavors and designs were perfect! Can’t wait to order for our wedding! They made our day!“
“Portside Bakery is phenomenal. During the pandemic, this family run business would deliver their amazing loaves to keep their community smiling and fed. These days, they are still a staple in my favorite food rotations and I literally DREAM of their pastries. This is one of my favorites, but you also MUST try the one with mushroom and the one with salmon. They are unreal. Whatever you do, do not miss out on this good spot run by great people.“
“We're from San Francisco and were getting married in the city, but decided to venture across the bridge after striking out on other vendors due to price, size limitations (270+ people), or general availability. We feel so lucky that we came across Krumbs based on the A+ experience, from tasting to delivery. One thing we truly hoped for was a true cake-tasting experience. In the post-COVID landscape, everything is "come buy cupcakes and let us know what you think." We went out to Krumbs and were so excited to be able to sit down and be treated to all of their cake, mousse, and frosting flavors, and even though we had only inquired about one flavor, we left with two. They were also super-flexible when it came to design and weighed in with their own opinions after learning about the wedding vibe, cake topper, etc. Their pricing was affordable but the experience felt premium in every way, from the tasting to delivery and putting the finishing touches at the venue. We were able to hand them off to our venue coordinator and they managed everything from there. We also had them do our sheet cake for the rest of the guests so everyone could have the same experience. We like them so much we went back to buy a birthday cake for my mother-in-law a few weeks later. SF is great but I feel like we found a gem in Krumb's and would recommend them to anyone.“
