Noe Valley Bakery

As someone who lives in San Diego and can't seem to find a decent scone anywhere (I've been trying for 2 years), whenever I travel I look for the things I miss the most from the east coast and let me say that Noe Valley Bakery satisfied my scone craving and then some. The place is adorable and everything looks like a must try. I bought the cranberry lemon and the blueberry pecan scones, but I only had the cranberry lemon scone so far and it was a taste of heaven. I was eating the crumbs (not even embarrassed to say that) Moist and flaky, not too sweet, baked to perfection. This is my 2nd time in San Francisco but I can affirm that whenever I'm in town I will definitely be back. I will probably stop by here again before I head back down to SoCal!! A must check out spot for sure!

I live blocks from this bakery which is dangerous. My favorite breakfast item is the cheddar and chive scone..which I get warmed up! The pastries are great, I have had them all. I will pick up a box for work. It also is my “go to” for birthday cakes. They have a great variety of flavors to satisfy every birthday gathering. You can even order sheet cakes. You can even get frozen cookie and scone dough to bake yourself. I highly recommend trying. Don’t be surprised if there is a line… it goes quick. They have a very efficient and friendly staff. Enjoy!

Super duper fun times at this bakery. They have lots of yummy foods and also bake goods. I personally ordered the m and m cookie the lemon tarts the pecan cookie. The people that worked there were super nice and they even put our food in bags! I throughly enjoyed my time at this bakery and I will definitely be going again to this fine establishment.

Stopped by here for the first time on a Sunday around 12 noon. There wasn't much of a line and only had to wait a few minutes to get in. Everyone working there was very pleasant and friendly. The cupcakes are on the smaller side, but they are delicious! The person helping made it a point to ask if we only wanted one of each cupcake. I'm guessing most people often get many :) On our next return, we will probably be getting more than one of each. Dangerous! We also tried the twice baked almond croissant. It's not Jane-level good, but we enjoyed it! I would have liked to have seen a little more frangipane inside.

This long time local bakery maintains its history of great taste and unusual combinations. I like their large chunk fig bread reminiscent of similar Parisian loaves. And the cherry chocolate bread doesn’t skimp on ingredients either with healthy bits of fruit and meltable chocolate nuggets that smell wonderful in the toaster. Another personal favorite is their seed coated caramelized onion bits baguettes which share their fragrance in the bag driving home and explodes with sweet aroma when toasted.

Fantastic independent bakery with a large selection of breads, quiches, cakes, cupcakes, pastries, cookies, and other savory and sweet treats. Their gourmet cakes and cupcakes are beautifully decorated and tailored to the season. Their window decor is seasonal, lovely, and very creative. The owners clearly care about their business and it shows. This place is very popular and often has a line.
