This place is an oasis on the beautiful coast CA. Delicious breakfast and pastry options.

Just had a "Hog" sandwich. It was amazing!!! Like soooo good! Roni calzone for my son. He loved it. turkey avocado cheese was a hit for my other kids. Fresh tomatoes. So perfect. They didn't skimp on the avocado and the bread was FRESH. Mouth watering!! Wow! Amazing! read more

Twofish is the kind of place that is destined to disappoint. Destined, I say! What am I talking about? Well, every single comment related to Sea Ranch that exists online, in people's guestbooks, and in people's memories from that one time they went to a wedding in Sea Ranch six years ago--or what is seven?--seems to bring this place up. "Walk to Twofish; you won't be disappointed." "Twofish is the perfect place to enjoy some baked goodness." "An unexpected treasure awaits in Twofish!" As you can see, I've standardized the spelling, as I've seen it written "2 Fish," "Two Fish," "2Fish," "Too Fish," "toofish," "twofish," etc. I'll only use one more question mark in this review; I swear: Did Twofish disappoint? No way. How could Twofish disappoint? (OK, so I lied. What are you gonna do about it? Hee hee.) Twofish isn't perfect, but it is great. Each pastry and bread looks delicious, and each one is delicious. OK, I haven't tried them all, but the three I did sample were delicious. In many ways, it reminds me of Schat's Bakery in Mammoth (www.yelp.com/biz/schats-bakery-mammoth-lakes-3). The main difference between Twofish and Schat's, besides their locations, is that Twofish is tiny. Tiny tiny tiny. So tiny, in fact, that I think they should rename it Tinytinytinytwofish. The outdoor seating area is cute, as are all the dogs people bring here, but if you aren't fortunate enough to snag a seat outside, you'll be relegated to one of Twofish's two tiny tables. That lack of proper indoor seating is where Twofish loses its fifth star. It's still, excellent, though; and if you are in Sea Ranch, you should totally come here. You won't be disappointed.* *See what I did there?# #I do apologize. I used way too many question marks in this review. read more

Always our first stop when heading to Sea Ranch. Calzones for dinner and pastries for the morning. Food is delicious and service is friendly. read more

I hate leaving this sad review, but it needs to be said. Yes, they are super friendly ..... but only if you're a local, or unless you came in and there was nobody else around that they were forced to help you. The baked goods smelled and looked delicious - too bad we didn't have any to actually judge for ourselves. This is off the beaten path, and we were very willing to go out of our way and risk coming in to an empty bakery because the reviews were so wonderful. It's a shame. We came in on a Sunday morning, excited for coffee, pastries, and some yummy snacks to take home with us. Unfortunately, we were never greeted. We were never acknowledged. And we were literally pushed out of the way by others (mind you, my bf is a 6'5" ginger, so he's very hard to miss). Initially we thought there was a line. So we waited in it. 5 minutes later, the people in front of us didn't ever stop talking, and others were going behind the counter to hug the employees. So we made ourselves present in front of the pastries, trying to catch the eyes of one of the 3 employees behind the counter. No luck. So we tried the line again. Nothing. No greeting. No eye contact (however, it would be hard to miss the only brown person in the room and a person that is about a foot taller than everyone else in the place). Then some lady goes up to the register and one of the gals drops what she's doing to help her. So we got about 6 inches behind this lady so that the girl would at least notice us. No such luck. The lady paid. And the girl walked away. We could tell we weren't welcome there. What a shame. We were ready to buy one of everything. But now, all they get is a bad review, and we're out an hour of our time (getting there & waiting there). Don't waste your time. There are other options with equally great options along the 1. read more

Don't come here. I don't want you here. Don't buy that brioche. Stop eyeing that morning bun. That's mine. Get away. Put down the brioche and no one gets hurt. Seriously if you find this place? Keep your mouth shut. Tell no one. This is just between us. Too many people already know as it is! Sometimes there is NO BRIOCHE AFTER 9AM!!!!! 9. A. M.!!!!!! This is classified. read more

I very rarely give a review to a place in which I have not eaten, but it's not because we didn't try. During a beautiful drive up route 1 on the coast, Sea Ranch was the perfect place to stop for lunch. Twofish received good Yelp reviews, so off we went. We walk past a half dozen people eating outside, and waited in line behind another women at the counter for 5 minutes or so, while another woman was served food at the counter. While we're waiting , a woman finally comes over and says "if you're here to order food, we just ran out". My wife and I chuckled thinking she was just joking. Without cracking a smile, and with a rude tone , she said "I'm serious, we're out of food." The locals can keep this one. read more

The only game in town for fresh baked goods is Twofish Baking Company. Prices are unreasonable. The ham and cheese croissants can be used for door stops. I hate to be negative, but there is nothing good I can say about this place except the cinnamon rolls are diabetes in a bun. The place is located off the beaten path in Sea Ranch, CA. read more

Awesome place! Fantastic sandwiches and cookies! I only walked out with one, amazingly. Pulla on Sundays . They are dog friendly at the outdoor picnic tables. I will definitely stop again! read more

We recently had a vacation in the Sea Ranch area and heard about the amazing sticky buns at this cafe. They did not disappoint! We don't get out this way often but when we do this will most definitely be one of the places we return to. read more

Went to Twofish last weekend to get a big box of pastries for the road. We were looking to drop $50+ on baked yum yums and a few large coffees. The reviews and pics looked amazing, so we figured we'd indulge our inner fat kids on our three hour drive home. When we arrived, there was a short line, figured it wouldn't take very long. The line didn't move for 5 minutes. The employees stood there chatting with a couple about their weekend events. We stood there for another 5 minutes, no greeting, no eye contact, no acknowledgement that we existed. More people got in line behind us. Still nothing. After 10+ minutes of waiting and trying to catch their eye we decided it was time to go. Bottom line - customer service is nonexistent here. This is a locals only joint, so if you live in Gualala, you'll love this spot. If you're a tourist, I strongly recommend you don't waste your time driving or waiting in line here. I'm all about supporting small businesses, however I'd like to at least be acknowledged before I give you my cold hard cash. read more

You normally need an elaborate system of blaring sirens and winches and pulleys to get out of bed any time before 9 AM. But when you're spending a lazy weekend up on the north coast, you actually wake up bright and early simply because you're too excited by the natural world around you to wallow in the sheets. You wake up mentally and physically hungry, and you want the best food to accompany the sweet, pungent air and the amazing views all around you. So you head over early to Twofish Bakery, and you pick up amazing croissants, rolls, baguettes, and whatever other baked goods you fancy that morning. You take them back to your little secret coastal getaway, fix yourself up a mug of warm green tea, and go to town as you stare at the waves. You are a good citizen of the environment and eat every last crumb instead of letting them drop on the ground where deer or birds might come across them. That's what you say to yourself, but we all know it's because you can't bear to waste a single tasty morsel. That's how my mornings on the north coast are, thanks to Twofish. It's been awhile since I hit up this bakery, but if they're still selling the Sea Ranch Lodge Cookbook do grab it. An old-school, spiral-bound cookbook by locals that focuses on seasonal coastal produce, it's a great find for any foodie. read more

Me and my grandpa used to go there then they kicked is out for no reason they have bad food bad service and just a bad attitude to the customers strongly suggest that you go somewhere better such as trinks ,ranch cafe or even the chevron food mart read more

Try the morning buns or the sticky buns, you won't regret it! Sure Sea Ranch is a small town, but they sure know how to do it right. In addition to breakfast sweets, Twofish makes bread, granola, scones and, on special nights, pizza! They also serve coffee, beer and wine. We took a half dozen combo of the ginormous sticky buns and morning buns, took it back to our crew of 8 and they were gone within an hour. They're just that good. read more

Excellent pastries. We really enjoyed the sticky bun, raspberry window pane. Be aware that this location does not serve lunch any more, bread sells out quickly in the morning. read more

Nice buns! Really. I think you have really nice buns. And I have saveured many buns. I am from San Francisco.

Just stopped by chance and what a gem! The best burritos and biscuits I've had in many a travels! They bake their breads daily and the food is fresh, homemade, and seasoned well. Wonderful staff. Definitely make it a part of your itinerary!! read more

So totally delicious and awesome pastries. I had the biscuits with ham and cheese. And the best latte I've had in months! read more

Twofish Baking - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Stewarts Point, California

"Hidden gem" would be an understatement to describe this lovely community gathering place tucked into a small and nondescript row of buildings on the "land" side of Highway 1 in Sea Ranch. Given Twofish is the only real dining option in the immediate area except for the Black Point Grill at the Sea Ranch Lodge, it's a lucky thing that it has so much going for it. The vibe is seriously friendly and unabashedly casual here, with the staff walking around talking to each other and to patrons and making everyone feel like part of the Twofish family. We adored our warm and witty server, and appreciated the freshness and quality of the food. There's not much of a menu here at dinnertime, and this spot only provides dinner (pizza and salad) a couple of nights a week, so check ahead. We got a tasty chopped salad with creamy herb dressing to kick off our meal. After walking past our neighbors' table, we couldn't resist ordering the garlic and rosemary flatbread, which was delicious and complemented the salad perfectly. After the salad and flatbread, out come a white pizza with Italian sausage. The crust was crisp and chewy and toppings worked together very nicely (hello garlic!), the sausage was flavorful, and the ricotta a creamy treat. I had one significant Twofish-related disappointment: I never made it back for their legendary breakfast buns and pastries. Each of mornings I went the ominous "closed" sign swung from the door. As I said, check ahead. read more

Really cool little gem in Sea ranch... Totally a local spot. They take all plastic cards and are pretty speedy.. Locals say the Calzones are the best they ever had.. See the picture I added for proof.. If your ever here in the rain this is a great place to warm up read more

Great new place! VERY rustic, but still has the same great items and service as before! The breakfast pastries are always worth going for, and pizza night (currently on Fridays), is a must. The upstairs section is great - it almost feels like being in an old barn. Upstairs is the bar, along with a bunch of seating. There are the two large "community tables," along with some single tables off to the sides and in corners. The Italian pizza is always the pizza to go for! Get there right when they open, however, for the best service, seating selection, and highest "quality" of pizza. read more

Best latte I've ever had in my life. The sticky buns were everything to write home about. I'll be dreaming of them until I can get back. Bread looks and smells amazing. read more

10 or 12 years ago I visited Sea Ranch every month or so and every time I visited I bought tasty delights at Two Fish Bakery. Since that time, the bakery has relocated to the Stewarts Point store and, unfortunately, the quality of the baked goods has declined precipitously. Yesterday I bought a wide assortment of scones, pinwheels, morning buns, etc. for our large family group. The scones and the muffins were just ok but everything that was yeast-based was pretty bad. They tasted as though the dough had not risen long enough, i.e. they were heavy, heavy, heavy. Bad day for the baker? Maybe so, given all the positive reviews I see here on Yelp. We ended up throwing out about half of what I bought. Too bad! read more

In the short span on a few hours (near the end of our most recent Sea Ranch vacation), we two hungry grown-ups tried (1) a cinnamon sticky bun, (2) a cinnamon bun, (3) a currant-orange scone and (4) a veggie pizza. What can be said that hasn't been said? Well, since it's been established that EVERYthing served there is skilful, inspired constructions of only the best ingredients (yes!), may we urge you to remember that the offerings and the hours are decidedly eccentric. I'm not sure it's clear that they don't serve everything at all hours of the day. For example, the cinnamon buns are available on Friday and Saturday only, and you better get there at 8:00am or you'll miss out. And the sticky buns (a gorgeously gooey treat) is available Weds and Thurs only at 8:00am. And pizza. They start taking orders at 5:00pm, Friday or Saturday, and it helps if you call in your order. It'll be ready in 20--35 minutes. It may also be available on Weds and Thurs. Heck, just call 'em. Sorry this is kind of scrambled. I'm just trying to make sure you understand that they run out of stuff real fast. But that is the only disappointment we've had with 2Fish. PS. To get there, you drive to the southern end of Sea Ranch on Hwy 1, looking for Annapolis Road --- connects with hwy 1 about 1-2 miles NORTH of the Sea Ranch Lodge. Turn onto Annapolis and head East up the ridge, and a short mile, at the top, where the airstrip is, you'll find Verdant View, coming in from the right. You're several driveways from pure joy. read more

The food here is spectacular. Extremely fresh and tasty. There's always a line in the morning, so come early if you want to have plenty of options. Everything is good - I'd recommend everything here! read more

Delightful bakery at the Sea Ranch. We had a scone, chocolate croissant and also got a loaf of the sourdough. Also one of the yummiest chai lattes I have had in a while. The are open the latter part of the week and weekends, so it's worth calling to confirm they are open. There was a line out the door both days I was there and you could tell it was a place were everyone was welcome. Super friendly staff and all the customers are chill and patient. Can't wait to go back once we make our move up north and try the lunch items! read more

I liked this place. The shop itself is cute and quaint. You can sit at a few tables, or at the counter and watch the ladies make sandwhiches and other tasty treats. We had an amazing sticky bun and warm drinks there, and then took our delicious sandwhichs with us to eat in the field (literally). Amazingly, my sandwhich wasn't mushy at all when I ate it a few hours later. I would definitely reccomend this place if you are in the area. read more

Sadly was not able to stop in for breakfast treats that look great on the pictures. I will have to try that another time. We came for Friday pizza night. It was very popular. The service was really friendly and all the regulars were nice and willing to help us navigate the process of ordering, upstairs seating, and paying the bill when done. Everyone seemed to be having a wonderful time. The indoor seating was full. We lucked out on getting one of the last places to sit. Others were waiting and barely got a table when their pizza order was ready. The pizza was yummy and hit the spot. I would go again - and try breakfast pastries. read more

Amazing food in a spectacular location. Everything they make is good, from the morning pastries to the sandwiches and pizzas. Oh, and pie, amazing pie! Get there right when they open or prepare for a long line and prepare for them to run out of things. That's a good thing though, it means they make what they can make well and when it's gone it's gone. I hear they are opening a store front in San Francisco - we will be headed there as soon as they open! read more

Twofish Baking - This pie is no joke!! Apricot Cherry deliciousness. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Stewarts Point, California

I post this with hesitation as part of me would like Two Fish (and Sea Ranch) to be a little best kept secret...but oh well here you go... We love Sea Ranch and we visit 3 to 4 times a year and have been visiting for many years now. Part of the charm of Sea Ranch for us is knowing that we can have our favorite ham and cheese croissant and morning bun at Two Fish. We also just got back from Paris and we can dare say the pastries at Two Fish are better than some we have tasted in France. During the summer or holiday week-ends, you have to order to reserve or you will be disappointed when you get there by 830 a.m.and the croissants and morning buns are gone. We also love the sense of community when you walk in and sit to have your coffee and delightful treats. The lady owners Magarett and Hilla know their customers (or most of them) and as rightfully captioned in their website, there is a Two Fish tribe outthere! Those who love Two Fish know you are part of the tribe! read more

Came here Monday afternoon for lunch.. place was not busy at all and almost seemed like they didn't have too many options. Many of the pastries were gone out of the case, but I wasn't shy on asking if they had any goodies stashed in the back. Got a tuna sandwich and an old fashioned soda out of the handmade fridges in the middle... a really great place to treat yourself if you find yourself up north or on your way back into the city. read more

Took a family trip to Sea Ranch and stopped in for lunch after visiting Fort Ross. Had one of the best sandwiches I have ever eaten at this spot. Everything was fresh and the bread was amazing, and I am not a bread kind of guy! Had some local brews on tap that were tasty, and the kids had a rootbeer float. Staff was friendly. We will be stopping off the next time we are in the area for sure! read more

Well, the secrets out and everyone that's "in the know" has found Twofish in Sea Ranch, CA. Gorgeous breakfast pastries. I'm not a morning bun fan (*cough* "pass the water, pls") but these are moist, delicate, flaky and delicious. Do not pass up the London Fog...it's their version of a chai latte but so much more than that. My husband and I shared one and almost got divorced over who would have the last sip (I gave it to him...that's the kind of wife I am...plus there may have been backwash...ugh). Go early or leave empty handed. Also, bundle up and prep for a wait since there's almost always a long line and you'll spend some of your time outdoors. read more

We rented a place in Sea Ranch for a few days & ended up fairly close to this place. In a word - super tasty. We never bought the same thing twice. Partly because they run out of stuff early, partly to try a few different things. The whole grain bread had just the perfect crust and great flavor, the chocolate croissant is simple and only mildly sweet (which is the right way for a chocolate croissant), and my girlfriend is already mourning the loss of her granola - even though she went back for a 2nd bag before we left and has not run out yet. It really is that good. If we're ever passing by that part of the coast, I could easily see us taking the long way and stopping in at Two Fish. read more

Love this place - great baked goods and a great place to stop if you are traveling the coast. We enjoy their sandwiches and breakfast burritos too! The store has a historic charm and I would recommend stopping even if you aren't hungry. Great place! read more

The Twofish bakery is a really unique place to visit. It's an old general store and sits beside an old farm house. It's got all this old stuff sitting around and sells all the old candy us old folks remember. They have the BEST frozen mocha on this earth. Great baked good and sandwiches too. They also sell some groceries. read more

Just updating this review based on our annual trek to Sea Ranch. Pastries are still just amazing - we had chocolate croissant, sticky bun, ham/cheese croissant. Pre-ordered/picked up some baguettes which made great sandwiches for lunch today. The owners are very friendly, even to non-locals. However, their staff need to be better trained on taking large, multiple-item orders; the staff person that took my order on Saturday completely missed my order for two pizzas, much to the sadness and dismay of my group (granted, this staff person looked like she has trouble counting past the number 10, so maybe it was Help-Out-The-Local-Village-Idiot Day). read more

Wow, who would have thought there'd be such an AMAZING bakery in the sleepy town of Sea Ranch?! The pastries here were absolutely delish!! Flaky yet crispy, sweet but not too sugary, and buttery but not too rich...perfectly balanced flavors and textures in each luscious bite! I was in breakfast heaven as I gorged on their almond croissant (my fave), scone, and cinnamon roll. Good thing I can get my pastry fix at Tartine Bakery in SF, otherwise I'd have to brave the treacherously windy roads up to Sea Ranch more often! read more

The best home baked goods and vintage candies. There are also local hand crafted things.

Good options - nice calzone, ice cream, other snacks and some rare sodas. Best quick snacks if staying in Sea Ranch.
