Alder Street, San Francisco
Bread worth the line, coffee while you wait.
A small neighborhood bakery. We mix the dough the night before, bake pastry at dawn, and pull the country loaves out at 4:30 every afternoon.
Country loaves out at 4:30 pm daily
Today's bake
What comes out of the oven, and when.
One deck oven, so the day runs in order. Pastry first, bread last. Loaves sell out most days by 6; you can hold one by asking at the counter before noon.
