Wow...this place is just a happy beginning!…read more Yes parking may frustrate you at times, and maybe the line is a bit long...even though it moves fast, it looks intimmidating..But this place DELIVERS! They have a pink espresso machine, a pink dough mixer, and the cup lids are pink. The staff is super focused, and friendly....Greeted with smiles and great suggestions, I got to try a number of treats. (Not 10, their max limit per order-customer). The Pistachio croissant...Pretty special, I never had it with a cream filling. The little flat bread with eggplant and pomegranates and harissa drizzle...super!. Tahini chocolate.....the list goes on...The olive bread. So if you are going to make it to any part of the northern CA area, specially San Francisco (Yes, there are great bakeries around here), I would put this on the top of the list, as the preparation is all from scratch, and the unique flavors and approach to some well known treats is something one must enjoy. Oh, and on top of that, I ordered a plain espresso, and the barista managed to do it justice. So dont be on the fence on the coffee making and quality. The location is on the steeper roads that I have no idea how people deal with living here. Good job, as once you stop in the middle of the climb, you will likely spin some tire to get traction, and that is on a dry day! The bakery is among a residential area.

TLDR: To no one's surprise at all, Butter & Crumble is still…read moremy favorite bakery in the world. They still have the crispiest, most innovative pastries every month, and September 2026's menu blew me away. I know the line can be long, but they are working as fast as they possibly can and there's so much love in the pastries that the wait is worth it. ------ FOOD (SEPT 2026): 1. EGGPLANT DANISH (5/5) One of the must unique pastries I've ever had. I would say this is a must try for this month, especially if you like Middle Eastern flavors. The eggplant was super tender and very easy to bite through. But what I appreciated the most was the layers of complexity with this danish -- zhug below the marinated eggplant, and not only whipped goat cheese and harissa on top, but also sprinkled pomegranate seeds on top for added acidity and brightness. 2. APPLE VANILLA BEAN CRUFFIN (5/5) Apple pie in a crispy croissant muffin! Fresh apple pie filling is extremely generous, and most importantly, the vanilla bean diplomat cream on top was actually a nice balance to the sweetness of the apple compote. A great fall pastry for this month. 3. CORN PROSCIUTTO CROISSANT (5/5) A super familiar and comforting flavor. The corn and basil bechamel sauce was addictive and abundant. It will never cease to amaze me how their pastries can be full of fillings like this and not get soggy. The "prosciutto" in this had the thickness and texture of deli ham vs. prosciutto (I actually prefer ham to prosciutto), so it was extremely tender and easy to take bites. 4. BROWN BUTTER CORNMEAL TWICE BAKED (4.5/5) I love their twice baked croissants so much because they have the perfect flakey texture. The chocolate filling brought this entire croissant together. I thought the cornmeal frangipane was super creative and interesting, but at the end of the day this wasn't a 5/5 for me simply because I ultimately decided that I would have preferred a smoother texture to a grittier cornmeal texture. But that is simply personal preference, and the flavor was still phenomenal. 5. TAHINI COFFEE PAIN AU CHOCOLAT (4.5/5) Great pain au chocolat. Full of both tahini and chocolate filling, though didn't get as much of the coffee flavor. Extremely flakey pastry. I've had other tahini chocolate croissants so this isn't the most unique flavor combination, but this was one of my favorite renditions of this combo. 6. RICE ROLL SPECIAL BUN (4.5/5) A divisive one! Butter & Crumble is exception for the quality of its crispy, flakey pastry, and this item has very little of that. It's extremely soft and possibly soggy, but not in an unpleasant way at all. In fact, I actually loved how soft this item was because the pastry didn't outshine the quality and flavors of all the other ingredients in this. The spicy chili oil on top was chef's kiss on top of everything. I've never had a pastry like this before, and I don't think I ever will again. Bravo. ------ ENVIRONMENT / AMBIANCE: * Same space as always, and the line was only 1 hour last week, which was totally doable * They're really emphasizing staying quiet to respect the people in the neighborhood, so don't bring any loud friends here! ------ SERVICE: * The ladies here were lovely as always! One of them was the outdoor coordinator who visited everyone in line with the latest menu and information on ordering so you could plan ahead * Was very fast getting a box full of pastries, but if you order a drink, expect to wait a little longer inside since those are made to order

The owner welcomed us as we walked in and it's a very nice spice and tea place on the second floor…read moreof Pier 39. We looked at the honey and the spices. The owner came over and introduced us to the jars that are all around the shop. You can open these jars to smell whatever spice or tea to get a feel for what you would be purchasing. If I remember correctly, the owner and his girlfriend blend it themselves. We purchased some flavored salts, and cranberry apple jam honey. They also had samples of a white strawberry tea that was amazing. This store is great and the service from the owner was fantastic from a details end. I appreciated what they were doing and definitely will be back when we venture out to Pier 39 again.

We ended up getting a bourbon bacon salt, a honey spoon, and got a free tuna rub! The store was so clean and well organized. I love that the spices/herbs/salta/sugars all had jars that you could open and smell for reference. The candles are also noteworthy! They smelled fantastic and I might just have to make my way back for some! Overall, Andrew, Mauricio, Blair, and Ian made the experience excellent! If you're walking through the pier, definitely stop into the business and give them look and purchase!!

The whole ambiance of the store is such a vibe - my husband and I love it. Even down to the music being played. It passes the vibe-check as the kids say. lol. I've been in for their soft serve & cannolis - both so yums! You can never go wrong with soft serve! You can choose from either a cone or cup & they have a bunch of toppings - even the olive oil & sea salt which I have heard AMAZING things about but I am a plain-girly so I opted for a plain soft serve on a cone. EDIT: GET THE OLIVE OIL & SEA SALT SOFT SERVE - ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG, it's LIFE CHANGING! I would never think the combo works but it freakin' works! lol. TRY IT, you won't regret it! If you go here & don't get a cannoli, did you actually go here? Just asking. Cannoli choices: Plain, Pistachio, Chocolate Chips & Rainbow Sprinkles. My go-to is Chocolate Chips, it never fails! A great thing about their cannolis is that they make 'em after you order! Fresh & hot off the presses! They also have coffee but I have never tried it BUT it gives me a reason to come back!

As a local, I thought this was a tourist trap and I was WRONG. We ordered the combo plate with two…read morefish, four shrimp, and fries. It was more than enough to feed two women (almost too much). In addition, each piece was surprisingly FRESH and you can tell. If it was frozen prior, then you sure did a great job making it taste as if you just caught it from the ocean. The fish was falling apart and thick slices/fillets, the shrimp was bouncy and the fries were thicc. The batter was light and there were no air gaps and it was not greasy at all (someone is a pro at the oil temperature I see you) I've never been defeated by a plate of food before but I do dare say it was almost too much for me. Highly recommend (may take a while for your food to arrive but it is worth waiting).

It gets really hot, but thankfully there were quite a few benches with seating that had umbrellas to provide shading. Each bench also had malt vinegar (a must), ketchup, and salt. Fast casual eatery.

Definitely tangy and easily shareable amongst 3-4 people. - Fish only - comes with two pieces of fried fish and tartar sauce. This was pretty good and not too bad of a portion. We split it and ate one each. Good batter to fish ratio! Got our fish and chips cravings satisfied for sure! Bonus points for the pun, the Codmother is actually hilarious and definitely won me over. Would totally come back for more if I'm ever visiting San Francisco again!

The concept of this place is absolutely wonderful…read more One of my coworkers recommended this place which is a courtyard of cooperative small businesses operating together collaboratively and thriving in one of the most expensive cities.

We walked there and it was an easy 10 minute walk from mid - Market street. We were impressed with the variety of options that were available to us. The smells that hit you when you first come in are so amazing and intoxicating. When my coworkers and I were ready to eat, someone saw us come in as a group and had a table prepared for us. The atmosphere felt like a bizarre. So full of life and so energetic. You could be there to either enjoy the food, or collaborate with your colleagues. There are so many options, worth coming back and trying something different each time. Definitely check this place out!

Good to see you again Tanguito…read more I had the skirt steak with fries, and those fries were seriously good. Thick-cut, crispy, flavorful, and easily some of the best fries I've had in San Francisco. I could have eaten a whole second order. The skirt steak came medium. They didn't ask for a temperature, and I normally eat my meat rare, so I was a little nervous. But it was still juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. Argentina knows its beef. And then there's the owner, who made the experience even better. He was genuinely kind, and we ended up having a great conversation about his garden, his house in Buenos Aires, and his country Argentina. That kind of personal connection is something you don't always get when you're grabbing lunch. Great food. Great prices. Very welcoming. They've been here since 2008, and yesterday happened to be their anniversary. Happy Anniversary, Tanguito! I'm coming back for the choripán next time. That one is already on my list.
