So we just got back from Europe last weekend and in Paris we had the most amazing croissants
and almond croissants they're so fresh so cheap and we had them every single day. And
we really miss it. We're on the hunt for best pastries and croissants in San Francisco.
Here are the 5 Best Bakeries in San Francisco. And now we're going to Arsicault in Inner
Richmond. It was named the Best New Bakery in 2016 and it has been super popular since
then. This place has super good croissants and they're super super flakey. We're in line
right now. Today is not too bad. Even if it's long it goes through pretty quickly because
they have very few select things on the menu. We got an almond croissant. Plan croissant.
Kouign Amann. It spelled "Kouign Amann," but it's actually "Kouign Amann." The owner literally
just took out a tray of these croissants. Look how fresh they are! Super rised up. So
flakey. So fresh! We have an almond croissant here and yeah this is definitely really flakey
and this looks really good. I'm making a mess. Yeah that's amazing. CRINGEEEE And a lot of
French people who have come here have said that these are indeed pretty identical to
the ones you'd find in Paris. And it helps because the owner is a French guy. You need
to come here and try this! Here we have the Kouign Amann, this is a little bit different
from the croissants that we're having. It's a little bit crustier and crunchier. It's
also really, really sweet so if you're into sweets, this is for you. Wow! I have it all
over my face. But yeah do you see how crumbly that is? Arsicault won that award and yeah
they definitely live up to the hype. So good! B Patisserie is a modern and aesthetic bakery
that boasts a huge selection of traditional French, as well as American-style, pastries.
Almond cake, which is gluten-free. Kouign amain. A regular croissant. Very flakey! Very
light, not so sweet. Really good almond flavor. Here we have the Kouign Amann, as you can
tell, crumbly and flakey. If you're not super into sweets and you want a Kouign Amann, I
definitely recommend this place because it's got more of a mild sweet flavor. Mmm, so light
and airy! Flakey. B Patisserie has great aesthetics, the flakiest and most delicious croissants
and we love their almond cake. We've been eating so much today. So we have leftovers
for tomorrow. Make sure to line up early to get some of their amazing cruffins. But remember
that Mr. Holmes also has a ton of other delicious goodies. The line started moving at 9AM, it's
moving pretty fast because there's a limit of 2 cruffins per person so people just get
it and go. We got a strawberry shortcake cruffin, cookie dough doughnut, and a matcha croissant.
The bread alone on the cruffin and doughnut is really good, but that filling just makes
it even better. This cream in here! Super good, it's not super sweet either. I'm a mess!
It's good! It kinda tastes like the matcha Kit-Kat. Never had a matcha croissant before
so this is definitely different. We've been here before, however, we've never ever had
the cruffins because we always got there too late so for once we woke up a little earlier
and got in line and now we have cruffins to try. People say you need to line up at 8AM,
you don't really need to. It's Saturday and we still got them at 8:45. Next up is another
amazing, amazing bakery: Neighbor Bakehouse! This place is a must-try if you're in the
Dogpatch area. They serve my favorite nitro cold brew here! I just love nitro cold brew
so much oh my god. We have an everything croissant. Ham and cheese morning bun. Cappuccino. This
is a cinnamon almond bostock. Similar to like a brioche type of bread I think, but more
of a cake form. Heavy! Pretty dense. If you're a big ginger fan, that's really good. I love
the pastry dough here. Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. Here we have the everything
croissant. Certainly has everything on it, underneath. Get inside there. I got a mouth
full of cream cheese, but no complaints. The great thing about these popular places in
San Francisco bakeries is that the lines are pretty long so they're always very, very fresh.
And Neighbor Bakehouse also has this nice patio area it's busy today, but there are
still places to sit because a lot of people are taking it to-go. We are at Tartine Bakery
which is actually different from their cafe in another part of the Mission. This one is
more of a bakery, with more pastries, less of a cafe sit-down and more of a quick grab
bakery. I got the matcha latte, which they have from Stonemill Matcha down the street.
We got a ham and cheese croissant. Frangipane tart, which is almond cream with the seasonal
fruit, which looks like figs. My favorite almond croissant, oh my gosh this is heavy.
This is really heavy, actually. So good! I ordered a frangipane tart, it's a little tart
that has almond cream filling, has also almonds on it and powder sugar and some fruits and
just lightly sweet with that fruit and the almonds and the crumbliness. It makes it delicious.
So those are out 5 favorite bakeries in San Francisco. Let us know in the comments what
are your favorite bakeries. Thanks!
