Arcangeli Grocery is located in a small country town called Pescadero. Pescadero, California? Where is that!?! Well it's "a beautiful coastal town two miles off Highway 1 between San Francisco and Santa Cruz." I was recently introduced to their bread at a dinner and then some good friends took my wife and I on a road trip to actually visit this place!
Arcangeli Grocery is famous for their freshly baked artisan Italian and French style bread that they bake all day long! They also boast a deli that makes great sandwiches and pizzas.
Quaint, unassuming grocery store with a lot of history and vintage pictures from the past.
The cashiers and deli workers are all so friendly and helpful!
They offer a few tables in front of the store but if you walk around to the backside of the building, they have a large picnic area with picnic tables where you can sit and enjoy the surroundings. They do have three port-a-potties also.
I ordered the...
#1 The Godfather (grilled): salami, mortadella, prosciutto, provolone, lettuce, onion, pepperoncinis & garlic-herb spread on pesto foccacia.
My wife went with the BYO (Build Your Own) Sandwich.
Hot Pastrami: soft roll bread, Muenster cheese, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, & mayo.
Both sandwiches were piled high with meat and both equally delicious! The pickle was good too. Not too sour.
I can see why people take roadtrips here and make a nice day out of enjoying the ocean, scenic views of the nice coastline, wildlife, etc.
We brought home two loaves of artichoke herb garlic bread!
