I visited this bakery after a trip to Daily Whisk Matcha across the street, and their baked goods were the perfect addition to my drink!

I ordered their double chocolate banana bread and a spinach-mushroom danish (forgive me for forgetting the bakery’s name for it), and they were both absolutely delicious. A lot of the time, bakeries make their goods either way too dry or too oily, but that wasn’t the case for The Local General Store, so I definitely recommend!

Talk about AMAZING pastries! These were some of the best puff pastries we’ve tried from all over the world. Great flakiness, immense flavor, and cooked to perfection. The staff was awesome and kind as well!

This is not a regular breakfast sandwich! I was shocked at how huge it was. It had so much presence that I didn’t want to eat it…but I did, and wanted to nap after😅! Flavors and ingredients were amazing! Don’t forget to pick up some fresh spam at the butcher counter!

The Local General Store was everything our friends had hyped it up to be. A local butcher shop that’s pumping out one of the best breakfast sandwiches you will have. They don’t have options you just order what it is for the day which I enjoyed. Place your order at the counter about a 10 minute wait for your sandwich. 4-6 bench seats along the window but very much a to go place. Loved they put it in a box for me so they traveled well. The place itself is just a butcher shop which was bustling and I enjoyed watching people order things and hear chatter about how this of that was so good I had to come back. Now onto the sandwich, the bread is incredible not sure what kind or who makes it but I want more of the soft but sturdy bread to stand up to the sandwich. The meat of the day was a link sausage of sorts cut into thin slices piled high. Egg is made in the fold style and is perfectly fluffy. Sauce was great. Don’t have a suggestion on what I would change about it. Besides I wish I could go everyday and try out the different combinations. Keep up the great work! Can’t wait to come back on our next visit.

We’ve been wanting to try this place for a while and man, it did not disappoint! The char siu croissant was delicious with a nice glaze, flaky and the filling was ono! The lilikoi guava danish was amazing and the croissants were some of the best we’ve had. Will definitely be back.

I purchased pork chops, corned beef hash, sausage, ground beef, Italian sausage, cinnamon roll, and chocolate haupia pie!!! The pork chops were juicy and tender, the cinnamon roll was good, but the star was the chocolate haupia pie!!! Definitely be back for the fresh meat and yummy 10/10 desserts!!!

Excellent croissant loaf and local meats. I've stopped at a lot of butcher shops across the US and their bacon is among the best. Nice job on the pork rillette too.

The char siu croissant was delicious . . . messy, but delicious. (don't try to eat it in your car while driving)

I was gonna take a picture but it smelled so good I just ate it.
The honey toast was so delicious 10/10.
The Char Siu Mustard Pastry 7/10.
There was little to no meat filling but it was still really really good tasting.
Staff were amazing!
