"Love is not the secret ingredient at this North Beach bakery. Who knows, it might be, but the most notable thing about The Love Loaf is that they mill their own flour on site. It’s a laborious process most bakeries opt out of, and you can really taste the extra effort in their sourdough and focaccia, which they offer as whole loaves, simple toasts, or in a selection of two- or three-ingredient sandwiches. The sturdy focaccia is excellent as the canvas for the bacon, egg, and cheese, whereas the croissants are fine, and the sourdough cinnamon roll could use more cinnamon. So stick to the sandwiches or walk out with a whole loaf." - Ryan Pfeffer
