At this bustling, charming bakery in SF, fresh-baked bread shines in every dish from artisan loaves to delicious sandwiches and sweet pastries.
"Because this massive, warehouse-like Mission spot is run by the legendary bread wizards behind Tartine, it should come as no surprise that the sourdough crust on these pies is operating on a different level than other tangy crusts around town. Puffs of hot air escape the charred bubbles when you take a bite, and the crust is thin yet sturdy enough to avoid sogginess. And toppings like prosciutto with a runny egg or curled-up pepperoni are simple but flawlessly balanced. House ranch (extra dill-y) is on hand for dipping, as are cocktails, wine, and salads made up of 50% parmesan." - julia chen 1, lani conway
"Provided that you have infinite patience and nowhere else to be, getting a table for brunch at Tartine Manufactory will be the best thing you do all weekend. The pastries are fantastic, the egg sandwiches and salads are stellar, and the space resembles a friend’s wedding at an organic farm in Napa. They also have a mini coffee shop inside with pastries and fresh sourdough to-go if you can't bear the wait." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
"Sure, Tartine Manufactory is primarily known for making incredible bread, but this spot also serves a dinner menu of seasonal vegetables and proteins that are both very fresh and not doused in butter and cream sauce. It’s an excellent choice for breakfast, too - the smoked salmon tartine is delicious, and the yogurt with granola and bee pollen is one of the best things in a bowl you can start your day with." - taylor abrams, will kamensky
"To do away with a daytime conniption, beeline to Tartine Manufactory. The offshoot of Tartine in the Mission is in a warehouse-like space with plenty of see-through surfaces and serves fantastic brunch, including sourdough toasts, puffy morning buns, and omelettes. Plus, the ambient noise of the bread-making conveyor belts will lull you into a flow state." - julia chen 1
"Tartine Manufactory, the younger and even more ambitious sibling of Tartine Bakery (which is also in the Mission, and worth your time), is a destination spot for anyone who appreciates simple, impeccably made baked goods—and more. This space is beautifully designed with incredible natural light at most hours of the day. We like to pop in for a breakfast sandwich or house-made granola in the morning, or drop in during lunch for tartines and salads. Or for more of a sit-down situation, come at night, when they do excellent sourdough pizzas and cocktails. " - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
