Mr. Holmes Bakehouse - San Francisco

Wanted to visit place so many times and finally made it here today! It is a tiny shop that has a trendy design. Very cute and modern. They got a good selection of both sweet and savory, and I opted for their sweet choices this time. Their apple cream donut was very good. Not overly sweet and the apple cream inside was fresh. Finishing it won’t make your tastebuds full of sugar, so I liked it. Got their matcha croissant but have yet tried. I fee that I will like it. The size was small, and I got both for $8.1. It is on the pricey side, so -1 star overall.

Great neighborhood bakery for modern pastries. From sweet to savory they have something for everyone. Get there early because they tend to sell out of the legendary kruffins fast. Make sure you get the box, which usually fits up to 6 pastries. Runs about $20 to $30 bucks but it’s worth it.

Usually a huge line but only one person in front of us on Friday morning. The croissants really are amazingly puffy and just a bit crunchy even with the fillings. The lemon meringue doughnut was good and the meringue was perfect on top. The raspberry hibiscus croissant was amazing and not too overbearing. And the garlic herb croissant roll was very garlicky (so watch out who you talk to after haha) but delicious!

10/10 This place was SO GOOD! I made sure I got there early before a line started, but the service is great and super fast so I wouldn’t worry too much if there’s a line. Their flavors for some things change every day so I recommend checking to see what they have depending on the day of the week that you plan to go. I got the Chocolate Banana Cruffin which was DIVINE! It had the perfect flaky croissant texture and taste in the cutest shape of a muffin. The Churro Croissant was also AMAZING! The Pastrami Manchego Croissant was yummy as well. Also this place is an Instagram pic Heaven so make sure to wear some cute clothes!

We were prepared for a long wait, but to our surprise, there was only one person in front of us. Looking through the display window, we discovered just four chocolate cherry sticky buns and a small pile of cornflake cookies remaining. It became clear that we had missed out on the cruffins, as it was already 2:30 PM, so we decided to go with the chocolate cherry sticky bun. It certainly lived up to our expectations. The outside was crispy, while the inside was beautifully flaky. The center was filled with slightly tart cherries that complemented the dark chocolate drizzle perfectly.
