I had an amazing sandwich! I ordered the Turkey Cobb Sandwich on the sliced sourdough. The bread was incredibly fresh and tasty. Whoever thought to put a Cobb salad on a sandwich was genius. The bacon with freshly cooked just right. The Gorgonzola cheese was the perfect addition to this sandwich. The sandwich is large. Smaller appetites may want to share. We ordered to take out and it was ready when we arrived. While we didn't eat at the cafe, the energy was good and there is a nice outdoor eating area. read more

Above and beyond. I had a presentation and needed to feed 65 people and wanted to feed them a hot breakfast. I put in an order for their delicious egg danishes one vegetarian and one with bacon. The night before not knowing how I would heat up the food. I asked if the kitchen could heat up the danishes before I picked them up. Even though Con Pane usually doesn't do hot catering. They went to another one of their sister restaurants and borrowed two hot boxes so I could have a warm meal for my event. Thank you to Dania, Tyler and all the staff that made this happen. Way to go above and beyond. Many Thanks Saskia Snyder Atelier Interior Design led by Remodel Fluency. read more

Came here for brunch on our staycation. Although we've been here several times, but it was more than a decade ago. During that time, the restaurant had changed very little, if at all. We ordered a turkey club sandwich, grilled cheese and tomato soup, and a chocolate hazelnut brioche to share. For drinks, we ordered a hot chocolate and an Americano. The sandwiches were both good, the highlight being the fresh bread. The grilled cheese went well with the somewhat pricey soup ($10 for small bowl). I enjoyed my coffee and my son seemed to enjoy his hot chocolate as well. The restaurant is very busy, but there are plenty of seating inside and on the outside patio. The servers were very nice and helpful, which is always welcomed. If you like Artisan bread, this is a nice place to indulge. read more

Have had pastries and iced tea there. My sister did not like her coffee drink but I think everyone liked their pastries and cookies. It was a sunny warm day and their staff brought my dog a bowl of water unprompted. So kind and thoughtful of them. Their service is very friendly. Edited for typos read more

I just love their breads. Great place to have amazing bread with butter and jam with your coffee or any of their delicious pastries. read more

My daughter visited Con Pane when she had friends in town from North Carolina. She loved it so much that she took her sister another time and then me last week. I got the turkey Cobb sandwich on the rosemary bread. It was delicious. I might add picked red onion to have more contrast with the blue cheese/gorgonzola. My daughter is a pescatarian and I'm glad they have a vegetarian sandwich offer. She said it was amazing. The peanut butter toffee cookie was so good but I wasn't a huge fan of the cowgirl cookie. It was too dense and dry like the Ausi bites at Costco. Parking is nearby in several lots but you might find street parking. read more

Cinnamon Roll with Raisins suuuper legit. Brioche dough is soft, moist, and elevates height of cinnamon roll. Raisin are just Raisins. They add just enough cinnamon spread. Cream cheese glaze is good enough to drink. Worth it! Chocolate Hazelnut Twist is good, but I should have read it is also a brioche dough. When you get that combo of chocolate, Hazelnut, and powdered sugar, it's the truth. Black coffee is hot and delicious. Highly recommend to go along with breads. read more

This very busy breakfast, lunch, and bakery establishment is yet another of the Cohn Group's constellation of eateries. I dined at Vintana, another Cohn restaurant, where I learned about Cohn's loyalty club, which I joined, then received $10 off at any Cohn-establishment. What a deal! The menu offers many mouth-watering choices of mostly sandwiches and pastries, but I opted to buy a loaf of their artisan multi-grain bread to take home. Tender crumb, yet hearty, it was delicious, and I was glad that I had asked for it to be sliced, as I enjoyed several slices on the way home. Put in the freezer at home, this substantial loaf lasted me 2 weeks, it was so large. Next time, I'll stay for lunch, or buy a picnic take out box. Accommodating service. Outdoor as well as indoor seating. Lots of nearby parking. read more

My dad, sister, and I grabbed an afternoon meal and on our way to the parking lot we spotted this gem. Immediately, I was drawn by the clear invitation the bakery and cafe makes in its open doors and great outdoor and indoor seating area. By the time we entered, it was clear that the breads are a hit. They go out so quickly! Please note that there's a separate line you can stand in if you are just grabbing baked goods. For our first visit here we grabbed the following: *Cinnamon bun (plain) - an absolute must! There's an option for a raisin-based one too *Croissant - it was a delightful surprise to discover the croissants were visibly salted and to a degree that was surprisingly delicious *Plain loaf - one of the largest ones and few remaining loaves of bread that remained. They can slice it for you to take home *two drip coffees and house lemonade The staff brought us our order in person with utensils packed in the bag which we were grateful for. Thank you all so much! I hope we can come again to check out the sandwiches and soups and more bread! Inside and out - this place made my heart sing for joy because it embodies the definition of a bakery and cafe so well! read more

Wow what has changed other then new ownership less meat more expensive? My 15.00 turkey sandwich had so little meat you tasted bread & tomatoes.

We were in the area for an event and came here for a quick coffee and snack. This spot got pretty busy on a Saturday but still had plenty of seating. I tried the Rose Latte which was so good. It was balanced well with the amount of sweetness. I also ordered a mini cinnamon roll which was just ok. I think the bigger one Rodger for the table, and heated up would have been better. I didn't try any breads or sandwiches, but they all looked so good, so I will be back! read more

A must-visit for anyone who appreciates quality coffee, great bread, and genuine atmosphere. read more

I wanted to update my previous review because Con pane has truly shown what kind of business they are. A few months ago, I mentioned some miscommunication about their Dutch Crunch bread, my absolute favorite. After two Saturdays in a row where it wasn't available, we stopped going weekly, even though we still loved everything they made. Today, my husband came home and told me about an unexpected interaction with the general manager, Dania, and it honestly meant a lot. My husband didn't approach anyone, yet the GM recognized him, came over, and kindly explained exactly what happened during those weeks. It turns out it really was a perfect storm, some internal communication issues and then a batch that didn't meet their standards, so they chose not to sell it. That level of pride and transparency says everything. We're all human, and things happen, but how a business responds matters. Con pane handled it with honesty, kindness, and genuine care. If I could give them a million stars, I would. Their Dutch Crunch is back (and as amazing as ever), and my appreciation for their team is higher than ever. If my earlier review gave you pause, I hope this update helps. This place is truly wonderful. And for anyone planning ahead...they also offer catering and are taking holiday orders. We'll absolutely be placing ours. read more

The pairing of a hot Americano with a cinnamon roll is a go-to for me. It is a way for me to determine if this is a place I would visit again. I walked into Con Pane with the plan of ordering an Americano and doing some work. When I saw the cinnamon roll I had to go for it. Busy vibe, obviously a popular place as the line was long but it went quickly. When I ordered my cinnamon roll I was asked if I wanted the one with raisins. Not sure how I feel about that. It almost feels blasphemous but I will reserve my judgment until I return and try this potential abomination. You never know, I may be converted. Outside seating was pleasant as it was a beautiful sunny day. The Americano was fine. I would give it a 6.5 out of 10. I'm not against bitter coffee but there is a limit. The cinnamon roll did not disappoint. Warm with a good balance of firmness and gooeyness. I do like the middle of the cinnamon roll to be extra gooey, just on the edge of raw. This one was consistent all the way through. The icing was just sweet enough. It did not make me seek out insulin. 8.5 out of 10. Will I come back? Definitely. I have to give that butterscotch latte a try next time. read more

The Turkey Cobb on Pt. Loma Sourdough is one of my favorite things to eat in San Diego. First off, let's talk about the bread. The Pt Loma Sourdough is my favorite Sourdough bread, full stop. It's light and fluffy, with a slightly sour taste, but it also retains the firm, sometimes crunchy crust. The sandwich itself is delicious, packed with peppered turkey, avocado, bleu cheese, lettuce and other ingredients that combine to create a perfect bite almost every single time I order it. You'll also have a difficult time not ordering a cookie, or a loaf of bread to go. read more

During the week life takes over, work, stress, everything at once. I just take a breath and tell myself: wait for the weekend. I grab a chocolate or almond croissant and a latte from Con Pane and walk to the park. The croissant is still warm. It breaks into delicate flakes and the steam carries that deep baked-butter smell that feels like a hug. The center stays soft and rich. Then the latte follows and settles everything. My brain finally shuts up. For a few minutes, nothing needs fixing. Is it the weekend yet? read more

Updating my review after 10+ years, and honestly? My opinion hasn't changed--I still love this place. I always get the Turkey Cobb on kalamata olive bread and it's hands down one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Somehow, after all this time, it's still just as good as I remember. Also gotta shout out the shortbread cookies. They're these buttery little melt-in-your-mouth bites of joy--can't leave without grabbing one. Con Pane has been a longtime favorite, and I'll absolutely keep coming back... hopefully for another 10 years! read more

I get that this place literally translates to "with bread".... And I love my carbs, but they are really not doing themselves any favors by having literally nothing else on the menu. It's all sandwiches, slices of bread, and pastries. I went with some friends this afternoon after kayaking at liberty Station. We were totally starving. I ordered the half sized portion of the "almost grilled cheese" sandwich and asked for a bit of jam on the side. The sandwich had nice flavor with the melted brie and Gorgonzola, but the cheese to bread ratio was really off in my opinion. Would've absolutely slayed with a cup or bowl of some sort of soup on the side or a small salad. My man got a half roast beef sandwich that looked good but quite basic. It also had a large amount of red onions on it, which was a bit of overkill. So basically, after eating bread with more bread for lunch, which I love, I went home and was automatically already hungry and had to make myself something additional to eat. I'll know for next time this isn't really a place for me that I get a meal, it would be more like a coffee and a pastry spot. We also went for the cinnamon roll that was highly recommended by the girls working at the counter. That was super tasty. The cappuccinos are nice. They use Cafe Moto, I always love it when they use one of the local roasters. The ambience was just OK for me. The place is very busy and being fast casual. I appreciated that they came around, offering to bus our table throughout the meal, but it kind of came off like they were trying to rush us out of there. We had two other people in our party so the bill for our table of four was more than $100 after tipping. read more

My friend and I met at 10:00 AM for a nice visit. We were happy to see that we didn't have to wait in a long line and our orders were delivered to our table promptly. I had to decide between savory or sweet and I chose the half veggie Cobb on sourdough with a coffee. I enjoyed every bite, and love the mung bean sprouts crunch and the salty dried tomatoes. Would have like more avocado though. It's always nice when sandwiches have a generous filling instead of being skimpy. My friend went for the orange roll and the dark chocolate and date scone. Both were tasty and ample and her latte was hot and delicious. We enjoyed our brunch outside and a good time was had by all! read more

Like I said in an earlier review, bakery is the theme this summer! Looking for a new place to walk, I didn't realize how big the park was at Liberty Station. And this bakery/cafe is right there! After Cako and I finished our walk, I went in and started ordering! I ordered a cinnamon roll, plain croissant, chocolate croissant, dark chocolate cookie, apricot ginger scone, and a loaf of the rosemary olive oil bread. Oh and the pesto foccacia and the tomato foccacia. Everything was really good! Especially that rosemary bread! The interior is large but a bit cozy and they have a great outdoor patio that I'm sure Cako would like. The only issue I had was the line for bread and pastry. The girl was working alone and not only rang you up but went and got your order too. I had to deduct a star because she forgot my apricot ginger scone, and since I live far away, I wasn't going to go back for it. Other than that, this place seems really popular with the senior community! I can see how it can get really crowded for breakfast and lunch! read more

Always looking forward to Con Pane for my favorite Turkey with sun-dried tomato sandwich. I don't even mind the price increase over the years. From $10.95 to the current $14.95 but skimping on the turkey while increasing the price is not a good business practice. I barely get like two slices of turkey in this huge sandwich. The bread and service are still great tho. I no longer have the urge to drive 30 miles for bread. read more

This location is open with outdoor and indoor seating. Staff are friendly and everything looked delicious. It was a cozy place for studying, working, or meeting friends. After grabbing coffee with hubby this morning, I stopped by here to pick up some sourdough bread. I wasn't sure how early they sold out so I wanted to get there as soon as they opened at 8:00 am. From a recommendation of the kind elderly lady in front of me in line I grabbed a Point Loma Sourdough baguette. I also added a Sourdough Boule (I asked to be sliced) and a Butter Toffee Peanut Butter cookie for hubby. Hubby came back from working and we came here for lunch around 11:30 am. Good thing I bought my bread this morning because they were already out of sourdough boules and baguettes. We split a whole Italian Salami sandwich on sourdough and a bag of chips. Even though they cut the sandwich in half, our halves could've been cut in half again. That is how huge the sandwiches were! I'm not a salami sandwich person but the ingredients were flavorful and went well together. Hubby loved that there wasn't any mayo in the sandwich. The flavored basil pesto infused oil and the pepperoncini were so yummy. The bread was light, soft and had a chewy crust. We will definitely be back for more sourdough bread. Plus, I want to try their Bread Bakers Plate and homemade granola! read more

My go to for gluten pleasures. Had the hazelnut chocolate twist and herbal tea while waiting in the area. Conpane was a bit off its game for my experience today. Hazelnut twist was cold and hard, almost like it's a day old (likely isn't but tasted like it). Next time I'll remember to ask to have it warmed up. Regardless, great spot to get one's sweet tooth filled. read more

Truly a bread lover's paradise. We flew into SD early one morning and a friend picked us up and brought us here for breakfast. The delicious smell of bread wafting everywhere and the giant displays of gorgeous loaves makes you want to order everything. We got a trio of bread and spread to share, and it was literally three whole loaves of bread. I thought that I would be stuffed after a few bites, but the bread is so airy and delicious and the spreads complement them so well that you find yourself eating more and more until only crumbs are left. Rosemary Olive Oil and Gruyère & Chive were amaaazing. Their coffee also comes in giant mugs. A huge -- pun intended -- plus. And don't sleep on the orange sugar bun. They looked so tempting by the register so we got one on a whim, and it was. so. good. My carb dream come true. The patio is a great place to hang, but you'll have to endure loud airplanes overhead, so if you're having a serious convo, you might want to take it inside. read more

Con Pane Rustic Breads & Cafe - Turkey Cobb is the best! - Bakeries Near Me - San Diego, California

This review isn't about their cinnamon rolls which to this family have got to be the best, or one of the best, in SD. This is about their service which, with the pastries, will keep us coming back again and again. So, just got off the phone with their manager, Rosa, who answered 5 minutes before opening. Imagine how hectic that must've been See, yesterday I ordered four rolls. One in a separate box so it could be warmed there and then eaten asap. Two boxes were in the bag. Seemed right...until this morning when I opened up the second box to find only two rolls, one roll was missing. I don't live in the area, but visit con pane regularly, so didn't want this to become a thing (and, yes,I also need to check INSIDE boxes). Despite it sounding as busy as usual right before they opened, Rosa listened, got the order details, and even shared it was a chance to speak with team so service is dialed. And then as if that wasn't enough she offered us our roll next time we're in. Service above and beyond...especially nowadays! Thanks Rosa. read more
