Have been going here for years but on our recent visit we saw a huge increase in the price of all items. Also the pizza slices have gotten much smaller. An order of meatballs that used to be $8 is now $15. For three meatballs ! They had a huge salads in the past but now they are tiny. They recently expanded into the space next door but it was much better & more reasonable when they were just on the corner. read more

Magical sourdough sold hot, and the focaccia is out of this world! We dropped in two mornings in a row for breakfast treats. If they offer the bacon egg and cheese English muffin, get it and thank me later. They have a quick walk up window which we loved. A must for any trip to the coastal stays such as Dillon beach! read more

As I was looking for a place for lunch on our way home from an overnight trip to Bodega Bay, I found this place. The hubby really loves pizza, and they seem to be known for their pizza, so I thought we'd stop here. It's about half an hour south of Bodega Bay on Hwy 1. We got there a little before 11 am, so we waited a few minutes to order. Thankfully it wasn't too cold as they don't have an indoor dining area. They have some barrels set up on the sidewalk with stools for sitting. We ordered a Pepperoni and a Jabroni which has mozzarella, aged provolone, veal and pork sausage and spiced broccoli rabe. Each was $11. Not sure why people are complaining about the value of the pizza. The pizzas were a good size and $11 is a good price. I make pizza at home and I usually cold ferment the dough for 2-3 days, so it takes time and patience. You don't have to go through all that for $11. Loved the dough. It was light, airy and the toppings and sauce were just perfect. I would highly recommend stopping by here or taking a slight detour. So worth it. I was just sad that I didn't get to try their croissants and other pastries. We were too late for them. Even though we came on a Monday morning, they were sold out. Glad I got to try the pizza though. Next time we're in the area, you bet we're stopping by here. And if you want to walk off some of the calories, Dillon Beach is a less than a 10 minute drive. read more

The coffee here was great! Unfortunately the line/order area is very unorganized/small and there was a mass amount of bees, flies and other bugs EVERYWHERE. There isn't any indoor seating so I'm not sure if this is typical but having to swat bugs away the entire time waiting to order and eating was not ideal. read more

A wonderful stop if you are going to or from Tomolas or in the area. Amazing breads freshly baked, cookies that looked and smelled divine, lots of other tempting pastries and freshly made treats. The coffee drinks were very popular, and the selection of teas made me very pleased. So happy to have an organic, herbal, yummy tea selection. Great, friendly service. Outside seating and street parking. read more

I went on a Monday morning at around 9:30 and bought a seeded sourdough round and it was absolute delicious and very expensive $11. I also got a latte which was very good too. They had a food truck out front. Despite the price of bread I will still buy there, just not two loaves as I normally would. read more

Stopped by here after picking up some oysters at tomales bay. The pizza was delicious but didn't realize one slice could feed 2 people. We definitely over ordered. The espresso chip bread pudding was good in flavor but just a tad bit on the dry side. Carrot cake was yummy. Nice place to check out on the way to the beach. read more

I am so in love with this place. I've been coming here for years and fall more and more in love each time. I so badly want to work here but the drive would kill me. I'll settle for a monthly visit! The food is great, the place is adorable, and just down the street from my favorite campground. A must visit! read more

I love the way this little corner café restaurant is set up! Everything is really blocked off from the public except it was incredibly windy! Their flatbread pizzas looked scrumptious!! Sadly I have so many food allergies I couldn't eat anything from here due to my allergy to gluten, eggs and dairy. Lol but everything smells and look delicious!! read more

Loved how close we stayed to this delicious bakery, as we were at least twice despite having a kitchen and plenty of groceries to cook our own breakfasts! But the fresh pastries and loaves of bread were just too tempting. As for the coffee, it definitely hit the spot! Service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend stopping here if you're in town. Oh yeah, and their pies are to literally die for!! read more

Route One Bakery has a welcoming ambiance. It's a street cafe with outdoor seating, with a covered walk-up window. The service was friendly and prompt. I tried: Garlic Herb Focaccia, Olive Round, Almond Croissant, Chocolate croissant, and plain croissant. All were fresh and absolutely Delicious. There is parking across the street along highway 1. I will return to try more. read more

strange encounter! Yesterday a group of us stopped here for coffee/food. My friend and I intended on splitting an iced Americano. Easy enough, correct? But nooooo, we were refused one as, get this, they cannot "give out" water (verbatim), and since the Americano contains coffee and water we were refused! We got an iced espresso drink of some sort which was very good, and my friends also got some nice snacks and iced drinks. I do appreciate how Route One has arranged to offer the use of the bathroom to patrons of the place next door in the adjacent part of the building as well as those of Route One, instead of making people traipse over to the park or worse. But back to the Americano.... aren't ice cubes made of water? Aren't espresso drinks expressed with water and dishes washed with the (assumably same) water? Maybe there was a misunderstanding and I hope this can be clarified. read more

Stopped in with friends on our way to Dillon beach. Each of Us Ordered a slice of pizza. A bit in shock that a slice was $12. I soon was presented with a huge slice of delicious margherita pizza. It was the size of a personal pizza. Fresh and delicious. Worth every penny. Will be back again next beach trip. read more

I'm a long time fan... So don't kill the messager. Bakery goods/ bread..epic.. nothing better! Pizza..well, Is it pizza or a Focaccia bread w/ toppings? I'm going w/ focaccia!! Good but not a " go back for " item Keep up the good work all . read more

Well, waited all week to order a whole pizza because it's the only place close to DB that does it and wanted to treat the fam. Called during the week because their website made it look like they do it everyday. They said no only weekends. So I call Saturday and guess what, they're not making pizza. Lady on the phone made it sound like this happens often. This is 1 of 2 places to eat out here and the menu is just so inconsistent so I don't bother anymore. Foods alright if you can get it but never much left if you go after 10am. read more

Fresh local bakery. I visit every time I'm in Dillon Beach. I usually get there in the morning for some breakfast pastries and buy focaccia or baguette to complement my dinner. read more

Stopped by here after taking my dogs to Dillion Beach and I'm so glad they have this little gem here! Their pizza is so amazing that I can't wait to go back and try every one. This place also makes delicious breads, croissants, and desserts from scratch so definitely check them out. They do have a lovely dog friendly out door patio where you can sit and wait after you order from the register. read more

Staying 10 days in Dillon Beach. Been here twice, hope to make it 3 times before we go home. We've tried the whole pepperoni pizza, a bunch of pastries, and the jalapeño cheddar bread. Pizza is very thin crusted. I saw other people with thicker single slices so maybe there are other kinds, but when you order a whole pepperoni pizza just know that it's ultra New York style thin. And it's amazing. Genius pizza. We're from San Jose and you can find anything good anytime but this has got to be top 5 of my fat and chubby life. Please get this. I hate San Jose now. Why can't we make a pizza? Jalapeño cheddar bread (loaf) is also outstanding. I don't get how it's so good. At home, I buy jalapeño cheddar loaves at farmers markets and they are garbage compared to this. I'm forever spoiled. Pastries - boyfriend tried 4 of them. I tried one that looked like a frosted, braided muffin. It was honestly the best pastry I have ever had. On our way home I hope to stock up on these. The staff were so sweet and helpful. Such nice, kind souls. Felt like friends. If you are thinking of stopping by here, go for it. You'll love it. The earlier the better because things sell out early. read more

My friends and I did a road trip and we stayed the night in Tomales. In the morning we went to the bakery before heading out and honestly one of the best spots I've been to. They had the largest, softest, most flavorful focaccia bread for $5 and my mind was blown. The cookies here and pastries my friends bought were equally amazing. Highly recommend stopping by. read more

Wow, shared a slice of thick crust pizza. Spicy pepperoni, tasty, tangy sauce and just enough cheese, but not too much. The deep dish reminded me of the Detriot style crust. Fluffy enough but with a perfectly crisp crust and good bread flavor. I'm already craving another slice. Can't wait to try other things, it's worth the hour drive! read more

If you haven't tried this place already, you are doing yourself a great disservice! I've been a professional baker/cake decorator for around 14 years and let me tell you, these people know whatisup. Everything I got looked like it could be in a magazine, so tastefully crafted and so very delicious. What really blew my socks off was the mushroom pizza with confit garlic, it was so divine I ordered a second one to take back home. Everyone I had the pleasure of talking to were so genuine and kind and I can't wait for my next visit to this lovely little gemKeep kickin' butt, you guys! Thanks for doing what you do! read more

Great bakery off of route 1 - got the olive bread, which was amazing, and the kougin aman - had never tried it before, and while the was quite good, think in general I prefer chocolate croissants. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area! read more

Great place to get pastries if you're there in the morning. Go early, before stuff sells out. They sell their bread to all the local restaurants, so we got to try all different kinds when we ate at Tony's, Dillon Beach Resort Cafe, and Hog Island. The pizza after 11 is great too, hits the spot after a beach day! Slices are very good portions. read more

We accidentally stumbled upon the Route One Bakery in Tomales and that was a great thing. We were there for the breakfast session two days in a row. The baked goods are fantastic. We tried a sourdough loaf, a ham and cheese croissant, an egg biscuit and pecan rolls. All were completely satisfying. The coffee and outdoor service completed the nice visits. It's worth a stop on the way through. We need to plan our next stop for afternoon pizza and sandwiches. read more

The pizzas are here, the pizzas are here! I loved the dough, both as a blistered traditional round and the deep dish Detroit style with beautifully carmelized cheese all around the edges. Toppings for today we're buffalo mozzarella, kalamata olives and pepperoni. Tasty, fresh pies and nice local folks. read more

Truly one of the best lunches I've ever had in the bay. Stopped on the way to Dillon Beach and was so pleasantly shocked. The square slice pizza was unreal - so doughy and tasty. The meatball sub was everything you dream about in a meatball sub - with giant meatballs a on a delicious hoagie. And the Apple pie was probably the best I've ever had. And the service was amazing - such friendly people! We got the peanut butter cookie and it might've changed my life - crunchy and sweet and perfect. read more

The pizza, the bread, focaccia oh my.... I feel like they are a little overpriced but I guess it hasn't deterred me yet ;-)

Surprisingly high quality bakery seemingly in the middle of nowhere. Lovely setting and far better than Bovine bakery in point Reyes

A long drive for okay pizza (more akin to a focaccia). Popular coffee place. Bikers everywhere.

Had lunch at Marshall Store and learned they get all the bread from Route 1, and that the businesses are connected. After hearing the pizza was amazing at R1 and an extended lunch at MS, we had to go to Tomales to check out AND get a couple pizzas and loaf of bread to go. So glad we did, and look forward to sharing this with others up for an adventure from the Bay Area. It's so worth an an afternoon out read more

The best almond croissant I ever had!! Thought it was a fluke so went back and no it's amazing! Went last week and got a seasonal focaccia with apples and rosemary and I almost crashed my car on the way home because it was so delicious. My only wish is that they had an indoor eating area for cold days but I'll gladly get it to go and on nice days sit on Dillon beach and enjoy it there. Love this little gem! read more

Great little bakery/pizzeria on the coast. Bread, pastries, and pizzas are excellent. Can get busy on weekends, but always worth it. No indoor seating, but several tables outside and some covered counter space. read more

Amazing bakery!!! Owner is so special- knowledgeable and sweet. Unique flavors I have not been able to find anywhere: *specifically* their passion fruit croissant! Blew my friggen mind! My husband swears by their bread, and he's a huge bread snob so that says a lot. He says get their cheese twists (and I would agree!) It's off the beaten path but if you're around, take the time to stop! read more

This is a must stop for all Pizza lovers on their way to/from Dillon Beach. One slice of this perfectly baked pie is enough to fill up a big guy like myself (don't make the mistake of ordering to much, however I did box it up and eat it later at home so I guess it wasn't a mistake!) The authentic flavors include, pepperoni, margarita, mushroom, and pineapple...joking, joking we all know that's not acceptable. This place has many other items on the menu to reach all the taste buds neglected by the savory pizza sauce. Delicious pastries, sweets, beer and all sorts of wine. I don't even like salads, yet I ate an entire Caesar salad because of how flavorful it was! ps. be sure to grab some ice cream next door. read more
