This centenarian establishment has been perfecting the art of bread-making for over a hundred years, crafting loaves that have become a staple in Bay Area households and restaurants alike. Bordenave's specializes in sourdough bread, a San Francisco favorite, elevating this humble staple to new heights with their time-tested recipes and techniques. The bakery's commitment to quality is evident in every crusty loaf and pillowy pastry they produce.
