Do you have a favorite local bakery or cafe? How has it done during the pandemic?

Now, as things are starting to open up, I hope they will do even better and I will be able to enjoy coffee and cake in the shop in person. So what is your favorite local bakery or cafe? Have you been going there, visiting it or have been able to order take out from there during the Panda make? How have they done? And of course, what is your favorite item that you always get from there

croissants 🥐 !

I always order an almond croissant, and they do a very nice job. And I'm especially impressed with how tender and soft their croissant is and the large portion size. That being said, I think my absolute favorite almond croissant is from Patisseri Rotha. There's a French trained Patisserie chef in Albany, California. They're right there on San Pablo Avenue, and they not only do croissants and Queen Amon, but other French pastries. Everything I've had there has been brilliant flaky. Totally. Okay

@Tim Thanks for the recommendations!

Hey, Tim, thanks for your response and thanks for those two great recommendations. For whatever reason, I have not tried them out, even though I've been living in the Bay Area for the last 20 years. So now I have two more Yummy Bakery shops to try out the next time I drive across the Bay. Thank you

FONUTS

I always love me. A good bakery or cafe recommendation. You know, this Irish coffee, it's just always running through my veins. At any rate, my favorite spot. There are two locations, one on West Third Street Street, and then one, I believe in Studio City called Phonuts. And they're called Phonuts because they are. I guess you would say fake, Donuts they're vegan and gluten free for me. That's just amazing, especially because it's really hard to find
