Le Marais Bakery

In our kitchen, croissants are small batch crafted with a combination of local and French butters and freshly milled organic flours. Our doughs are made with all-natural, house-made starters and long fermentation periods. As much as possible, we work with organic ingredients from the Bay Area farmers we’ve partnered with since we’ve opened. We take a lot of care in sourcing flour from Central Milling, our dairy from Straus, butter from Normandy, France, an old mustard owner Patrick Ascaso loved as a child, berries or apples from the best growers, and though we serve many vegetarian meals, we also source sustainably raised and organic meats. “As the name implies, you’ll find all things French and scrumptious here. Drop by for a decadent chocolate-banana croissant or a loaf of rustic levain, but linger for a heartier bite – think thoughtfully-prepared salads, sandwiches, and toasts – at the adjacent bistro.” — Food & Wine Visit us at our Marina, Castro, and Lower Nob Hill location!
