Flour & Branch

I had the pleasure of visiting with some friends for breakfast, and it was absolutely amazing! The owner was incredibly sweet and provided outstanding customer service. He took the time to explain the menu and recommend some great dishes, showing so much patience. The pancakes were by far the best I've ever had, and the cookies were simply irresistible. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and made from scratch. I can’t wait to return—everything was just so delicious and the place itself is so cute and cozy!

Dear Four and Branch! Your pastries as far from "normal". I've been obsessed with the twice baked pecan&chocolate croissant, this is just a small heaven in the middle of the day. I recommend to go there, you'll feel like home! i just decided to take one to me flight back to Estonia to feel cozy! Take care, Kristina

Michael is a happy host! Amazing breakfast bagels and pastries. Coffee is strong and delicious. Warm and relaxing atmosphere. Nice touches like fine bone china and flatware. Clean toilet is a big plus!

Pricey but justified given the super eclectic and cute decor with real candles. Didn’t have real food, just got a few pastries but they were delicious. Staff also attentive and friendly. Definitely recommend the stuffed French toast- more of a decadent dessert if you don’t mind having dessert for breakfast/brunch like me :)

Family owned clean, beautiful ambience with the best pastries I can recall having since my last trip to Paris! Amazing place to relax have a coffee as it’s not super loud and has lovely seating. I had egg and bacon pastry - AMAZING - while I did 30 min of work. Couldn’t have had a better experience!! ps: the ham is made in house and it’s unbelievable delicious.

This place has quickly become my favorite bakery to hangout at in the city. You step in and it feels like you’re in a small town somewhere closer to Europe than the bustling streets next to the bay bridge The owners clearly love what they do, from explaining each pastry in detail, to crafting the menu, to making sure you have a good pairing of selections And the food! My wife recently made me promise I’d only get the beshert stuffed French toast once a month. Everything here is incredible, but it feels unfair to compare other baked goods to the stuffed French toasts here. I highly recommend

I wasnt ready for how many pastry options this place had. All of them super delicious sounding and the kind man working there gave me a full breakdown of all the options. I was looking for something savory so I went with the breakfast Danish with the egg. I also tried a Lions mane latte like drink which was delicious. I want to come back and try more !

The pastries were decent but not amazing, I got a croissant and the stuffed french toast. Their vanilla latte was very tasty, atmosphere was pleasant making it a nice space to spend time in, and service was above and beyond as the employees were super friendly and inviting. Prices are also fairly high, even for SF.

A San Francisco treasure and delight! Warm, cozy homey. Great pastries--lemon tarts, cheese tarts, drinks, cookies, kouign amanns, buns, breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and more. I loved their large, filling, cheesy breakfast burrito with their homemade brisket. Great, friendly, personable, helpful, knowledgeable service in a great space.

This is such a warm and cozy neighborhood spot. They have some creative pastries on display, like a giant French toast and their cookies. Everything looked delicious. I had the Chipper cookie, which they warmed up for me, and a cup of coffee. Also got the Wheel to-go. The pastries are sweet and delicious, perfect with a hot cup of bitter coffee. The staff know their stuff; ask them about their sweets and they'll rattle off the many ingredients included that you didn't even know about. It's obviously a local spot because they were on a first name basis with many of the people who came in. Will need to stop back in for a proper brunch!

I wish I was a local so I could go here every day. Why this place? Because the Breakfast Sandy will absolutely change your mood. Well at least for me. The beautiful sandwich comes with not one but TWO poached eggs (cooked to perfection btw). Aka you get two sandwiches for the price of 1. We're talking sausage patties in it. A side salad. An amazing sauce to put in the sandy. I was depressed because the rain, but after one bite. Instant smile. Also, the service was really great. The cashier/server was very sarcastic/funny and he gave me and my friend a free "Brookie" which is a delicious peanut butter chocolate chip cookie and a sticky bun! As for ambiance, the cafe is just so cute. The aesthetic is giving cozy, homey, and there are little items you can buy (candles, etc.).

I recently got a strawberry cheesecake croissant to-go and it was really great with a nice flaky croissant shell and custard cheesecake filling with strawberry pieces in the center. I love that it's not too sweet even with the chocolate topping. It's the perfect indulgent treat and large enough to share.

I asked the cashier for something better than Starbucks and they ended up giving me something better than Starbucks

This is the cutest Parisian shop with delicious savory and sweet baked goods. Not to mention the wonderful coffee, I got the orange blossom dulce de leche latte. Beautiful decor and friendly service. Thanks for a great experience. Will be back to try your brunch options. I got the caprese tart which was fantastic! So many good options!

This place is SO cute! Perfect for a girls brunch or coffee date. I will dream about the mushroom danish it was absolutely delicious! Also loved the French toast. The front server was so kind and explained all of the bakery items to us. Wish I got his name! But he was great!

What a cute place!!! I first visited years ago when at least 2/3 of the café/bakery was under heavy construction, so when I walked in recently, I was surprised and delighted by how much bigger it is now, plus how well decorated it is. It's now not only a bakery, but also a coffee shop and brunch cafe. On a Saturday afternoon, there were people here both in small groups and solo, enjoying a full brunch, treats, or just coffee. I really love what they've done with the space. It was dimly lit, which provided a nice ambiance for a Saturday afternoon. There was a wall full of beautiful and fun items that were decorative and available for purchase. (I didn't take a photo because there were people standing in front of it who seemed to want privacy.) The employee who assisted me with my order was friendly, too. I adore their chunky cookies. So far, I've tried The Salty Sombitch, which is my favorite. The PB&J cookie is also great. This time, I took my order to go, but next time I will stay a while to enjoy their space and try out more flavors. The signs outside advertising their "secret brunch society" really piqued my interest, so I googled it when I got home. It appears to be a prix fixe brunch that you have to reserve via email since they have limited seating. The menu sounds cute! Don't forget to sign up for their loyalty program (it's linked to your phone number), so that you can earn rewards.

I've been to Flour and Branch more than a handful of times now and I've never had anything but positive experiences here, from start to finish. It's never been too busy inside when I visit and I've always been able to find a seat if I decide to dine in, or South Park is just around the corner if I do takeout on a nice day. Despite any traffic noise and chaos (especially during rush hour) outside, the vibe indoors is generally casual and chill, with some cute decor and products to look at while you wait. There are so many sweet and savory goodies offered in their display that I find it hard to choose sometimes, but the staff are there to lend a helping hand if you have any questions. If you know you'll be in a rush, you can order ahead using Toast. As I said, only positive experiences here and I look forward to going back soon.

Amazing decoration and also able to purchase items in the self (great for gifts). Get there early to have a seat. The employee was very helpful and apologetic for the wait times. Pastries are super yummy, flakey and light to the crunch for croissants ($6.50)! Kouign Amann with strawberry rose ($7), the complete had a bold flavor and breakfast danish ($8) was good. On top of their pastries, there is a dedicated menu for brunch. If anyone is looking for the famous supreme rolled croissant (pinwheel), this cafe has it, it is $10. Overall, great cafe to go to!

I think this is a great location to study or work from during the day. The staff were very sweet and helped recommend desserts and drinks. I personally thought the chai was lack luster and watered down, but would be curious to try the matcha here next time. The pistachio croissant was good though!

I'm so happy this cute, cozy cafe & bakery opened up by my work. Since the pandemic, so many places have closed so this place is a breath of fresh air. It's nicely decorated, cozy, & super cute inside. Glad it's not your typical coffee shop chain. They have several cute miscellaneous gift items you can purchase as well. All the bake goods look DELICIOUS! It reminded me of B.Patisserie. So fresh & large! Also, I have to say their Vanilla Latte w/oat milk is the best I've ever had so far. It's listed as "Vanilla Bourbon". Looks like specks of vanilla bean. It's SO good! I can't rave about it enough. The service is over the top. My first time there, the guy behind the counter came around and gave me the rundown of all the pastries behind the glass. There was another guy, I heard someone call him "Michael", I think he's part owner is really nice! I've seen them great everyone the same way. They make coming here so comfortable and homey. Such a great find! Highly recommend!!!

Super cute coffee shop Staff was super friendly and gave great recommendations and offered coffee samples if you want to try before you buy The Nutella cookie was amazing had to take some to go (they even offer to warm it up) Husband tried the chilaquiles and he said it was good and he's a picky eater Definitely recommended checking out this place don't get discourage by the walk there you won't regret it

Visited to grab a cookie, and was so happy I popped in! It is the cutest storefront, and everyone was so kind. I had my dog with me, which I was worried about, but he was welcomed and offered a treat. Can't wait to come back!

Outstanding pastries and delicious brunch sandwiches. Although their prices are on the upper end, I don't mind when they are baking with high-quality ingredients. I bake occasionally so I recognize and appreciate amazing bakeries. Flour & Branch is worth the detour to come near SF downtown where parking is difficult and traffic is bad. It is too much to type but I guarantee anything you order would be excellent. If you have time, ask them to have it warmed up and enjoy the goods on the spot. My mocha is creamy and not too sweet. Portobello Sandy and Breakfast Sandy both are delicious.

One of the few places that live up to the hype, everything from the service to presentation was amazing. The waiter was friendly and provided recommendations. There's 4 small tables inside and one large table for 6-7 people that was hosting a birthday brunch so they were quite busy. - The sweets: cookies and stuffed bread pudding were divine, the best I've had! Their vanilla lattes paired well with the pastries too. -The savoury: green eggs and ham were an interesting take to the infamous Dr.Seuss meal but the eggs were not green lol but they did have avocado & spam. Can't wait to be back to try all the pastries!

Why is this place such a vibe? This place is seriously such a vibe. It's soooo cute and the service is literally top tier. You'd never think to check this place out amongst the corporate buildings in the area, but the great home-made pastries and fantastic (and weird) coffee syrups is definitely worth stopping here for. Come on - banana corn and white chocolate!

Omg on their cookies! A friend so very kindly brought some cookies from this bakery and they were amazing. Not overly sweet, creative ingredients and just so good! Started off with their Salty Sombitch and Cinnamon Toast Corn & everyone was vying for the crumbs. Then i read their box which suggested heating them up a bit at 350 for 2 minutes...this just elevated their yumminess. Had the Chipper and Nutella Stuffy this way warm and wow. I'm definitely making my next trip into SF to get more!

Popped in randomly on our way to the Caltrain. The flowers drew us in. They were closing but Michael was very attentive and recommended some great drink options and even threw in a couple cookies since we were the last folks in for the day. Wish we had come earlier to sit and enjoy the comfy seating with a good book. I'll have to come back next time I'm up in the city. He did say they are looking at expanding to some new locations so I'm going to keep up with them. This is exactly what I'm looking for in a little cafe.need to cone back for brunch. Michael said they make a lot of things in-house, which I love!

Spent the afternoon catching up with a friend at this hidden gem in the SOMA area. It's such a cute cafe with vintage vibes. There are a few tables and free wifi, if you wanted to work here. We ordered the Guava Danish and Matcha Spiral Croissant. The spiral croissant had a tart passionfruit filling in it. Both were on the sweeter side, so these might not be for you if you don't like sweets. The prices are a bit steep, but the workers are incredibly friendly. The cafe is still really cute and cozy, so worth the try!

Good food - the twice baked croissant was actually really good! Good Coffee - we got banana milk and sweet corn and it was just amazing! Dog friendly (:

If you're looking for amazing pastries, cookies, coffee, sandwiches, pancakes & cute home goods & gifts, this is the SPOT. I love love love this place and they can't keep me away. An awesome reward system, friendly owners & workers, amazing coffee and service. You can tell everything is made with love and sooooo fresh. The best yogurt with home made granola topped with honey, bee pollen & berries. Amazing bagels with homemade specialty butters, jams, and cream cheese. This place is to die for! I bring all my friends who aren't from the area. A must have and will have you running back for more. 10/10, will be a regular here for a long time!

I don't have a single picture of any of the pastries here because I literally devour them the instant I get them lol but you just gotta trust they're pretty. My favorites are their rotating danishes: 1) mushroom & Gruyère 2) caprese Both of them are incredible and very well done. Can't recommend enough! Ambiance is also pretty cute inside.

At last I got to try this cute little bakery in my neighborhood and it didn't disappoint! They have super friendly staff and great variety of pastries. I tried to pick not too sweet options so I got morning bun and twice baked pecan croissant to go. I was asked do I want them heated and also packed nicely. That's the level of service I'm missing in a lot of local places. I loved both pastries, they had great balance between crispiness and gooeyness and were super fresh + not too sweet as I wanted. Planning to come there more often taste more of their stuff!

Okay people, I'll be honest with you... I was trying to gate-keep this place. Last thing I want is my favorite bakery blowing up so big I got to wait in a fat line. I came to a realization that this was selfish and the people deserve to know what goes on in this place. What goes on is the makings of the best freakin cookies you can find. You come for the cookies and you try their other offerings. Unique flavors and some classics that are executed on perfectly in the same style of cookie. A thicker chewy type that will blow your face off if you have the patience to get home and pop it in the microwave real quick. This place is in the cuts and you would never notice it unless you knew exactly what you were looking for. And if what you are looking for is the best cookie in SF, then look no further. (4.9 Stars)

Food favorites: kouign amann filled with nutella (flaky, sweet, divine) Service: super personal Vibes: tea partyesque, pretty florals (peonies and all!)

Adorable hidden gem! I stopped by to kill some time in between lunch. Super cute and sassy items for sale. People behind the counter were very nice and welcoming. I got the veggie danish which was a tasty bake of flaky base, gooey cheese, red peppers, tomatoes, and pickled jalapeños. I loved it. Nice little kick with the spice. Also got an iced matcha which was spot on. Would definitely come visit again if I'm in the area!

Loved the delicious baked goods, friendly staff and adorable atmosphere. I'll definitely be back

This is a place that makes your day. The moment you walk in, you would immediately feel better. Maybe it's because of that sweet bready smell, or the cozy Frenchy ambiance, or their super warm friendly staff. Please order yourself a cookie, at least, or try their stuffed French toast. That crunchy bright cookie shell and melting dripping Nutella inside will just put a satisfying smile on your face. I truly like this place, will make sure to come back again.

I had a work meeting in South Park and discovered this shop on my way back. This is a cute bakery + gift shop combo containing sustainable skin care products (including travel kits), journals, lavender scented eye pillow buff, "cozy by the fire" sets, blankets, pillows, scented candles. I ordered a veggie quiche (broccoli and bell peppers) and Americano, thoroughly enjoyed every bite - crispy on the outside, soft on the inside with perfectly baked eggs. I also managed to grab a Korean skincare travel set

Best coffee shop I've ever been to!!!! Their customer service is absolutely amazing and the place is super cute and cozy, great ambiance!! They make their own syrups and pastries in house and they are all soooo goood Can't wait to come back really soon :)

I got their Mashugana, Chocolate Covered Cookie-Berry Stuffy, and The Chipper to bring home to try. They helped me pretty quickly when I went to pick it up. Before I tried each thing, I heated them up in the oven for a few minutes. I expected the Mashaguna to be pretty custardy/gooey and have more chocolate flavor, but it was more bready than I expected. However, it was still pretty good with some nice flavor from the fillings. I think I would have enjoyed it more with some vanilla ice cream and maybe some fudge. I enjoyed the cookies more. The Stuffy had a good amount of cheesecake and strawberry flavor, surrounded by some nice sweet (but not too sweet) cookie dough. The Chipper had a good balance of chocolate and espresso flavor. The rice crisps gave it some interesting texture. I would come here again for cookies, though for their other items, I might try them in store to have them fresh.

Very cute, whimsical bakery with a lot of nice seating areas and decor. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by the owner and given an overview of each bakery item that was available that day. I was really impressed by the unique variety they had -- every item had an interesting ingredient twist to it which I had not seen before at another bakery. My friend and I decided to get two of their best selling cookies to try based on the owner's recommendations. These were so tasty that I decided to pick up some additional cookies and pastries to-go. I loved that these were not overwhelmingly sweet. I will definitely be coming back to try more!

I was in the area for a meeting and wanted a quick bite for breakfast. Flour & Branch was a pleasant little bakery with nice ambience and indoor seating. Both the croissant and Nutella stuffy was great! So was the service, the lady even asked if I wanted both of the items heated up. Would definitely come back for a visit if I'm in the area again.

The food is excellent, fresh, and the same every single time I go here. The service and ambiance gives you a warm comfortable feeling. So comfortable that you want to sample and taste everything there is to offer here. This place is my favorite in the entire city, with customer service that far exceeds every single place I have gone around this city. Flour and Branch is a San Francisco gem that is a mixture of all the best things from the best places. I highly recommend to anyone to give Flour and Branch a try. You will not be disappointed.

Hands down this is MUST VISIT place for cookies and baked goods! Not only are the offerings the highest quality but the owner/manager is generous to a fault. Was there the other weekend for first time right about when they were to close. Ordered some cookies and he gave us french toast at no additional charge. The cookies were dense, made with best ingredients and the french toast, full on flavor.. Must try, must go for anyone in SF.

Such a great spot. I got the "Hold My Beer Bun" and a coffee. They heated up the pastry for me and it was super yummy - thick though - had to eat it with a fork. Couldn't get my mouth to go wide enough to eat it without the fork! That particular pastry is a croissant type dough with blueberries, coated in their house beer glaze and brown sugar beer filling, topped with a beer cream cheese frosting and brown butter streusel. Try one, you won't regret it. They are super nice there. Extremely accommodating - asked for a to go cup for the coffee and stuff. They are all smiles. Will be back for sure. They have so many other pastries that I want to try.

Took our kids here for the first time today (Friday afternoon). Easily found free street parking right around the corner. Cute and clean space, amazingly attentive service, and yummy food. The pastries are huge and delicious. You can tell everything is high quality. We were hungry/cranky when we got there and left very happy. Highly recommend!

I think I just found the perfect croissant. Absolutely delicious. Same can be said about the cookies tried and the guava cream Danish. Definitely give them a try while in the area.

the staff are super friendly and welcoming, they kept asking how they could help. the cafe itself is pretty cute. the morning bun was so-so (a bit gummy inside), the twice-baked pecan croissant was a bit more dark than I would like but tasted delish

Such a beautiful space, so many choices for snacks and full brunch! My coffee was custom crafted with a barista and served to me at my seat. A perfect place to enjoy some coffee and a pastry after a train ride!

My new go-to spot when I'm in the neighborhood. Pastries were out of control; I had the kouign aman stuffed with house made rose berry compote. Bonkers. The cold brew (my caffeine tolerance is up there, cold brew or bust) was ~phenomenal~. As I sit on their super cute couch, I'm phasing in and out of reality. That's some good juice! The most lit candle on the cake would have to be the gentleman taking my order. When it became apparent that this was my first time, he guided me up the mountain. Apparently the cold brew recipe is his, and he should be proud. Great work team!

I have been following their instagram account since last year and I finally got the chance to try their baked goods during the grand opening. I came here on a Saturday morning and it was easy to find street parking. Upon walking into the bakery, I was mesmerized by the floral interior design. The bakery is well lit and the setting felt welcoming. I love it when bakeries have an open kitchen and I could see a glimpse of the work behind the scene. The pastries are beautifully displaced and the staff are very friendly. I got my pastries warmed up and enjoyed them at the bakery. I tried the Breakfast Danish, the Ham & Cheese Croissant, the Twice Baked Croissant and the Chipper Cookie. The packaging is neat and pretty. I like the colored tissue papers that separated each pastry. The croissants and danish are all well baked and have distinguished layers. They are crispy and buttery with the perfect amount of fillings. They are all delicious and are in the top of the list of best croissants I've had in the Bay Area! My personal favorite is the Breakfast Danish; the hidden caramelized onions and bacon jam are a flavor bomb. The Chipper Cookie is a soft cookie and the middle is slightly under baked which I think is intentional. I personally prefer a more crispy/chewy cookie so I wasn't a big fan of the texture of this cookie. The marshmallow was dried and fell apart from the cookie when breaking the cookie in half. The coffee flavor is a good balance from the sweetness of the chocolate which I liked. I also tried their mocha and it was very good. The coffee is smooth and the chocolate wasn't too sweet. This is probably one of the best mocha I've had! I got it sized small and I wished I've gotten a bigger size! Overall, I had a great time here and I will definitely come back and get the pastries here again!

Adorable women owned bakery! So happy we walked here from our hotel vs going with the hotels tourist chain suggestion baker shop. Pretty sure we ordered from one of the owners, she was as sweet as could be. My friend and I sampled a few items, nothing was shy of perfection. The chocolate croissant danish was so flaky and the perfect amount of chocolate, the ham & cheese croissant was sprinkled with an everything bagel seasoning (so we thought) and was the right blend of salty and sweet, the Cinnabon melted in your mouth and the cream cheese frosting was divine then we split a Nutella stuffed cookie that was way better than anything you could make at home. Will revisit this place on future trips! The interior was adorable too if you dine in.

I've tried multiple times to like F&B as I work close by. However I feel that they are never transparent about their drink pricing. I ordered a drip coffee, and since they don't have any milks or creamers out on the table to DIY, you have to ask for it added. They don't tell you when you add a splash of "cream" to the drip coffee, that it is an additional $1.50 cost! Ordering a matcha, most places sweeten it for free - not here - I wanted it lightly sweetened and the barista helped me get 1.5 pumps of what was their standard sweetener, (he said it was normally 4 pumps) - without me realizing to sweeten a drink in any number of pumps was an additional $1.50, add that to my $7.75 oat milk matcha - adding up to $9.25. No thanks.

We had the ham and cheese croissant and stuffed French toast. Both were AMAZING! You can tell that it's super fresh and homemade, it was the perfect balance of salty and sweet. I've never had something like the stuffed French toast, it could almost be like a dessert but it's not too sweet. I love the decor, it's so unique and cozy, and the service was IMPECCABLE. Coffee was amazing and the owner came by our table to share about the food and drinks.

Live in the neighborhood and have been eyeing this bakery for a few months. Yesterday, we finally made it in. Wow Wow Wow Deliciously AMAZING We took home the French toast, morning muffin and told them to give us their best selling cookie. When we finally sat down to eat these items a few hours ago we were in heaven. Delicious. We will be back shortly and service was superb. Thank you for making your baked goods in our neighborhood.

These bakes (notably the cookies) are uniquely "to-die-for". Shipping them from San Fran to TX in the heat of summer is actually a good way to get the "fresh out of the oven" effect! (If you like your cookies hard and cold, this may not work for you.) The Brookie was absolutely my favorite. It may be because I'm kinda a sucker for brownies... and warm ones at that. Though, I certainly couldn't eat the entire thing myself (in one sitting, at least). The PB&J was the family favorite - definitely would need to order more of those next time. WHO KNEW PB&J in a cookie would be sooo good!? These cookies are a good, healthy (not that kind of healthy) portion (or two)! They're so good, though, I can certainly see one eating half and hiding the rest for indulging later. Next time I'm in the Bay Area, I'll certainly be stopping in to have the actual "fresh out of the oven" experience, and maybe try a few more of the drool-worthy bakes as well. For now, the 8 cookie gift box is my go-to gift when I want something fun, edible, unique, and legal in all 50 states.

Wow, phenomenal breakfast sandwich. Lovely little oasis for delicious lunch. Thanks! Note to others. Not fast for a lunch brunch sandwich, but might have been the day. But so good! Think high-end restaurant sandwich, not cafe regular egg sandwich.
