Great Asiago sourdough bread, pastries and Sierra Mud cookies. The service was quick and the vibe is clean and productive.

Pulled in for a sandwich and cup of coffee. The tuna sandwich was on fresh sourdough bread. The cup of coffee was hot and smooth. Great spot to get a simple cup of coffee and good food. Not crowded which was refreshing. read more

This little bakery bakes up some great pastries and whips us some delicious sandwiches! Ratings for what we've tried so far: Hot coffee - 5/5 Breakfast croissant sandwich with bacon - 5/5, great size and yummy thick bacon! Breakfast croissant sandwich with sausage - 3.5/5, great size but sausage wasn't anything special Blueberry muffin - 5/5, delicious and even blueberries in every bite! Cinnamon roll - 3.5/5, might just be me but I'm not a big fan of cream cheese frosting and the cinnamon roll was more bread than pastry felt like. Sliced sourdough bread - 5/5 Customer service 5/5! Staff is very friendly and the place is clean. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Stopped here for quick sandwiches for the road. Delicious, fresh sandwiches. Sourdough bread was super fresh, thin and tasty. Grabbed two loaves of Asiago sourdough freshly baked for home. Great service. Will back on our next road trip! read more

Super small little bakery offering the most delightful GF Sierra Mud Cookies. I was just passing through, but had to stop and grab a bag for hubby to try. OMG ... he devoured the whole bag (minus giving me a little nibble to try!). Then he proceeded to tell me these cookies were the best GF cookies he's ever had and that they should be sold nationwide. Haha Friendly staff and super clean shop! read more

Good little bakery! Seem to cater to locals more than tourists. Workers knew a few of the customers that came in. We got: - kids ham and provolone on sourdough - kids enjoyed this, bread was soft - BLAT on sourdough - really good and filling - cowgirl cookie - apricot oatmeal, a little too sweet - spinach artichoke croissant - sourdough loaf They also had a few organic fruits for $1.50 each in a basket. Lots of drinks but no whole milk, only low fat. Lots of bread options and self slicing machine. Clean bathrooms. read more

if you want good bread, THIS is the place! Roamed over here instead if the "other" well known bread place and what a pleasant surprise. Their multigrain wheat is amazing as is the sourdough and the cookies - especially the Molasses cookies are so yummy! Cool, local spot with a limited selection of breads but quality made! read more

Stopped in here for breakfast before we set out on a short backpacking trip. I hope to be able to come here for lunch in the future, as the lunchtime sandwich menu looks good... and they have a daily soup! I ordered a bagel with peanut butter and my other half, a sausage breakfast sandwich. The bagel was good! Definitely tasted fresh. It wasn't.. boiled like a traditional bagel though? I'm not sure, but it didn't have quite the same texture as a bagel you would get from Noah's or Einstein's. The breakfast sandwich bread wasn't toasted, so at least we know to ask for that next time. (It was on sandwich bread.) I really like the self serve coffee and tea area in the back -- very convenient! A jug of water is also readily available... so drink up before you hit the trails! 2018: 33/100 read more

Delicious bagels with generous spread at a reasonable price, and tasty loaves as well. We'll be stopping here on our next journey through town. read more

Mt Tom sandwich was once great! Now, it doesn't come with bacon and the sun dried tomatoes aren't the same either..... won't be getting that one again. Hopefully the cookies are still fabulous read more

Best sourdough ever. My San Franciscan husband agrees. The pastries are to die for, too.

Stopped here on our way home from Mammoth. Cute bakery with a lot if delicious choices. Not much space for eating and it was crowded on a Sunday at 11a. But there is outdoor seating if the weather permits and clean bathrooms is a plus. Our group ordered a variety of sandwiches and cookies. Everything was fresh tasty and delicious. The sandwiches were large too. All the cookies were delicious! The lemon cookie had plenty of lemon, the molasses cookie wasn't overly gingery, and the mud cookie was super yummy chocolate. I ordered an everything bagel which had loads of everything topping. I do wish I had known they have a pesto cream cheese. Apparently it's not on the menu. I'll have to try it next time! read more

Our turkey sandwiches were amazing! Unfortunately, after 1 bite, we got distracted by someone and the dogs ate BOTH sandwiches. Ivy and Hazel are giving them rave reviews. Good portions of meat, cheese, tomatoes and other good stuff. The bread was to die for. Don't miss it! read more

Mt Tom and mushroom Brie soup were both fantastic. Perfect for any road trip lunch stop.

This is by far the best bakery I've been to. Everything I've tried, cookies, croissants and the Mt. Tom sandwich have been excellent! This is the first place I go when I'm in Bishop! read more

Excellent! I had lunch from here and it was delicious! You can order online, very easy process and select a pick up time. My food was all ready when I arrived. Busy place great locals spot. I had a turkey sandwich, chips and a molasses cookie, it was so tasty! I'll definitely go back. read more

Came here on the independence day, and everything is almost gone already! With the limited options left, I still enjoyed my visit here a lot. Service (5/5): The staffs were nice, especially the lady who helped me. She was patient and funny in answering my questions. Food (5/5): Roast beef sandwich (6/5) - The portion was generous, and they put a lot of vegetables in the sandwich, which I love. My favorite part was the homemade horseradish sauce! It wasn't heavy like mayo and super refreshing. Chocolate Ganache Croissant (5/5): I left it a little long in my car, the chocolate was super melted, but still tasted really good! Chocolate mud cookies (5/5): A little on the sweeter side, but it's perfect. Rich, deep chocolate taste (Similar chocolate crinkles). read more

Great bakery. We ordered sandwiches on-line to take to some backpackers at Onion Valley. The ordering was very easy/efficient and ready on time. The sandwiches were outstanding. We had the turkey, turkey salad and BLAT. Especially liked the turkey salad--a taste of Thanksgiving, but definitely turkey salad. We also picked up some mini cinnamon rolls which were great. The staff were very friendly. If I had to choose, I would stop here instead of Shatt's (gotta go at least once, but does have a huge variety of baked goods) or Silly Beans where we would have had to wait 45 minutes for sandwiches. Parking a bit limited if you are driving. Ambiance is kind of rustic which is fine with us. read more

Always a treat to come here and eat, love the bagels and pastries! Good lunch options, a bit small inside and can be busy at times but well worth the wait. read more

Great food. Great service. Great music. We were a large party and were accommodated with ease. I have not one bad word to say. Will go back!

The owner listened and got everyone into shape. The results were immediate and that's commendable and impressive. There was never a need to go to the competition and nor will there ever be. read more

Yes Yes a thousand times Yes!! This is a must stop for Mt Tom turkey sandwich when hiking in the area. Molasses cookies are amazing as well! Service and quality is consistently great, appreciate this local gem and getting away from the more heavily trafficked bakery along 395. read more

Delicious soup and best sourdough I've ever had. Sweet and kind staff it was a lady at the front . Was just passing through from mammoth but loved this place read more

This bakery is now on my list of 'must stops' when I'm in Bishop. Main reason? Their vegan oat chocolate chip cookies! Super good and totally hit the spot after a few days of backpacking in the Eastern Sierra. I got a loaf of the multi-grain bread as well but that was nothing special - next time I'll try out their sourdough. They have quite the selection of baked goods! read more

Update 4/23/2022 - Still our go to spot on the way home from Mammoth. I guess they no longer serve Black Sheep Coffee. Now it's Indy Coffee. Still good and I do recommend you use your own travel mug because the paper cup they give you has a shaky lid that is not very secure. Three of us got bagel breakfast sandwiches that were delicious but a bit on the greasy side so have those napkins ready. It also looks like they remodeled a bit since the last time we stopped in. The restrooms are updated and so much better than before. read more

A smaller bakery that felt very much like a local ma and pa shop. Super cute with delicious ham and cheese croissant with coffee. One thing that stood out to us was how they made their own bread and sold them by the loaf to locals. Rather than a spot for the wayward tourist, Great Basin felt more like a spot for locals. This is exactly the kind of bakery you want to find in small-town Bishop. read more

Why when one buys a loaf of bread at the old Rite Aid shopping center the cash register inquires if you want to leave a tip? This is for doing their job and ringing up a loaf of bread. Although I do like the bread, I question their business practices. Are they going to load the bread into my car? Tipping is for services rendered, not for someone who just does their job. A good friend of mine worked on the satellites that cellular phones work off of, he questioned me one day, "Where is my tip for building these satellites every time someone makes a phone call." Last time I was in there, a man who worked the register talked to a woman for 2 minutes and 15 second while I waited at the register. After making me wait, the register still inquires if I want to leave a tip. Product = Excellent, Service very questionable. read more

Best Bakery in town!!! All the bagels are top notch and they have different cream cheese spreads or you can add meat with cheese, egg etc. cookies are baked fresh every day. You can't go wrong at this place. read more

Very nice staff, clean establishment, no frills but everything was exactly what we were looking for. The croissant was very buttery and flakey, and the jalapeño cheddar bagel was doughy and crunchy. Great prices too, this will be our go to breakfast spot in Bishop! read more

Everything here is so dang good! We always come here and it just keeps getting better. The wife and I really like the staff and appreciate the covid compliance with masks and such. Makes me want to spend more money here than my doctor would like! My friends all agree. Try the BLT on sourdough. You won't regret it. And the coffee is out of this world. Roasted right across the street at Indy coffee! read more

Amazing sourdough!!!! Went inside after we were searching for a better sourdough than the tourist trap up Main. I found it! Service was nice and the vegan oatmeal cookies and plain bagels were BOMB too! We will stop for more on the way out of town. Soooo yummy! read more

Really good pitstop heading thru Bishop.. Great generous portion on creative sandwich FRESH !! Awesome bakery items also! Just off the main street toward south end of town . read more

The best part about this bakery besides its products is that the tourists don't know about it. The employees are the best.

Early morning visit in Bishop. Small shop with lots of baked good to check out. I got the the breakfast sandwich with hand their whole wheat bread and a raspberry scone for coffee dunking. I shared with my dog on the outside table. Plenty to share and hit the spot. read more

We were going stir-crazy from sheltering in place and needed to get out for a day drive. With so many places closed, our expectations weren't much. We noticed Great Basin Bakery on our walk the other morning and decided to give them a try. WOW! What a great place. Obviously, these folks know their way around fresh baked bread (the sourdough was amazing). But, all of their ingredients were spot-on as well. My wife had the Mt Tom Turkey Sandwich and loved every bite of it. I opted for the Muffuletta. While the bread itself was different than the New Orleans version, the salami, ham, provolone and olive spread were the real deal. In fact, I preferred the thinner sourdough over the traditional muffuletta bread which is too thick and distracts from the fillings inside the bread. We are only here for a month and will definitely be back! read more

Delicious soup and sandwiches. We stopped in after a long snow day and it was a perfect amount of food to get back on the road. Highly recommend for a quick stop morning or mid-afternoon. We had the roasted bell pepper soup and the famous turkey sandwich. They have a variety of options for all ages. Give them a try! :) read more
