If you want an exceptional cappuccino, almond croissant and the feel of walking into a bakery in Italy you must give this bakery a try! It's unmarked on the sidewalk( at least today) but it's between Jefferson and Beach Street on Leavenworth St. ( attached to the Dole Building) My husband and I always visit this Bakery/Cafe and love sitting outside enjoying the weather and ambiance! Give it a try you will not be disappointed read more

The service was way too slow!!!! One employee to do everything.! Two people in line ahead of us and it took over 30 minutes to order read more

Is not like the pictures! Smelled like urine, flies flying around inside. Bread had no flavor, only one flavor coffee. The person working there seemed to not want to be there , annoyed when asked about the coffee/ food. Would've rather eaten at our hotel especially for how much everything was priced! read more

Pomegranate - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

It's a good shop. Sad they didn't have pomegranate juice in the morning when I went there. That's sort of the whole point of your shop's name. Plus I love pomegranates. So that was unexpected. Yet I did order the orange juice and breakfast sandwich. The service is great. Space tiny inside to dine. Yet I did dine in and it was fine. The breakfast sandwich was ok. The orange juice ok. It just wasn't that flavorful. read more

Pomegranate - Breakfast sandwich - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

Found this place walking around bright and early in SF and it was one of the only spots we saw open. It was such a pleasant surprise stopping in here. I picked up a box of pastries for everyone and was recommended the Almond Bearclaw which was delicious. I picked up a cream filled glazed crumb donut which was the BEST. I would come back just for that it was seriously incredible. We also grabbed a latte, raspberry danish and an apple strudel. There was only one person working and with this being the only open spot it was a bit busy. Perfect place to stop by if you're in the area before 8am when other businesses start opening up! Great pastries and coffee. read more

Feels like an airport cafe, dingy, half done and windows and fixtures haven't been dusted. Nice selection of pastries and donuts and some breakfast sandwiches as well as a full coffee bar. Odd hole in wall in need of a makeover. Decent place for a quick breakfast. No bathroom which feels illegal? With some effort this place could be much better. read more

Positives: conveniently located in fisherman's wharf, close to shops and tourist destinations. The person working was very kind and made our food as fast as she could with all her other orders. She even threw in a little fudge dessert for my girlfriend's bagel. Negatives: I know rent must be high in this neighborhood, but if I'm paying $15 for a sandwich, I expect there to be more than 1 thin slice of Turkey meat. Same for my girlfriend's lox bagel; just one thin slice of salmon. I'm willing to pay SF prices anywhere I go, but adding a bit more substance to the food isn't going to break the bank. It's like someone just set up shop in a high traffic neighborhood, minimally staffs the place, serves bare minimum offerings and over charges for low quality food. read more

Pomegranate - Good coffee - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

The staff was polite. The coffee on the other hand... I ordered an iced americano with a light splash of half and half. What I ended up getting was iced coffee and they did not have half and half. If she did not know how to make it or if the establishment does not offer that drink, she should have disclosed it before charging a customer. Customer tip: If you're going to advertise yourself as a coffee shop, please serve all the coffees that a coffee shop should offer. The pastry was delicious though. read more

Pomegranate - Avocado toast - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

We came here looking for a quick bite to eat and coffee while waiting for a bus to Muir Woods. There were barely any customers where many of the surrounding cafes and restaurants were packed, which we probably should have taken as a sign. We ordered a ham and cheese on an English muffin ($7), and a salmon avocado cream cheese croissant. I could have made the English muffin sandwich in our hotel room. The salmon avocado was fine enough, but the vegetables were old and soggy. The cappuccinos were decent and the woman at the counter was sweet. Unfortunately, I do not recommend this cafe, if you are looking for a quick stop, head somewhere else. read more

Coffee was decent. Food is a zero. Way below average. Do t eat here. Spent $55 for a bagel, breakfast sandwich and 2 coffees: They didn't get things hot. So Luke warm bagel and breakfast sandwich. This place is not a repeat place for us. read more

Superb service, delightful menu, and an inviting ambiance! A perfect dining experience!

Ordered an iced coffee, served it in a soggy paper cup. Bagels are $4.50 without cream cheese and $7.00 with cream cheese. $2.50 for the cream cheese (pictured below). The guy working forgot two of the 4 pastries I ordered and I had to go back. Ordered vanilla lattes, got sugar free vanilla. They weren't even busy. Total disappointment. read more

$10 ham and cheese bagel was barely toasted and the ham and cheese were cold. Nice person working but subpar food.

Nice little place for a light breakfast. Coffee was good and they have a big selection of pastries. We sat outside and enjoyed the morning. When we went, there was one person in front of us. The length of the line changes quickly. It was out the door by the time we were done. Very convenient to the hotel. We'll be back. read more

PLEASE BEWARE!! Do not buy anything from this establishment. It is absolutely disgusting. One of employees said the owner is making them sell all the pastries before placing a new order once per month, which is why the pastries look old and molded. Another employee lied and said the pastries were fresh and delivered that morning. I took a chance and bought one because I was so hungry. The almond milk is old and used until well after the expiration date. The place hasn't been cleaned either. The floors and and counters are filthy with flies all over the pastries. This place should be shut down by the health department. read more

It's called a bakery, but they don't bake anything. The coffee servings are small and the most expensive in the neighborhood. They also charge the most for an almond milk substitution. They have a chalkboard menu but the prices are higher when they ring you up. . I live a few blocks away and will not return. read more

Complete joke, not a bakery, nothing but empty shelves, immediately turned around and left. So sad, such a busy area and to not take advantage of the crowds & culture of SF.. No outdoor seating read more

Overpriced place, I took salmon avocado toast, where were few salmon peaces on regular cheap bread for $14 and Pomegranate juice for $7 without tax (which is from Costco)‍ paid $55 for 2 and still hungry and completely unsatisfied of food quality! My coffee came after I finished my food and coffee was not good as well. Do not recommend. read more

Walked in to tiny place with literally empty displays,- no pastries! Call themselves a bakery-? No outside seating either and it is most certainly NOT waterfront! What a lie! read more

Regular of the americano here, amazing stuff, also chatty and welcoming customer service.

I ordered salmon cream cheese bagel and it was awesome. And so warmly welcome from staff, he explained everything in my order because I have some allergies. I definitely recommend this place. read more

I worked in The Cannery for the better part of the first year I lived in SF. Admittedly, I was playing the "see how many hours I can spend in the office until I go bonkers"-game. Not liking to lose, I worked through most lunches and breaks (my choice) and rarely went far for lunch. I didn't seek out Waterfront Bakery, I ended up there by default. It was a lucky find. Waterfront Bakery offers pastries, breads, coffee and awesome sandwiches. I used to get their ham or turkey sandwich when I snuck away for 20 minutes. It's a great sandwich - good quality bread, fresh meats and veggies. They do a sliced cucumber that they cut into cubed sticks. I'll get a photo, but I really think these make the sandwich. The sandwiches are substantial. I ate half frequently and saved the rest for later. They also have delicious Ham and Cheese Croissants, which they can warm up in a press. Since the ingredients are A) Great and B) Three of my favorite ingredients ... It's a winner. The coffee selection is full of the standard fare, and everything I've had has been good. They also have bread for purchase, which I have never done. Bit looks good. Brass-Tacks: Classy little place. Small and hidden, a clearly the standards are high. The service is good, although a little on the laconic side. I'll trade quality for social effusivity. The space to eat inside is limited to a handful of tables, but the have an equal number outside as well. It's a cool little place to have a quiet bite or cup of coffee. One last note: The prices are VERY reasonable for the quality. read more

2.5 Stars. Eh! A sad disappointment. I decided to stop by here for lunch while at work last week, and I was super excited after reading reviews. The variety of breads was great, I chose a Dutch Crunch roll for my Roast Turkey sandwich. The roll was a good size, and I requested to have my sandwich heated. After ordering, I decided to seat myself outside. They have about 4 little round tables on the sidewalk covered with umbrellas. Sandwich finally arrived, looked yummy, but it came out not heated as I requested. Not a problem, I just sent it back to be warmed up; the gal kindly apologized and brought it back out. While the sandwich definitely looked y u m my , and made my stomach growl even louder, after taking one bit into it, I quickly started wondering what the hell I ordered. The name of the game here is "Where's the turkey?!?" Can you see it? There was TOO much lettuce, a piece of tomato, Monterey jack cheese, and sliced cucumber. But I could barely find the turkery! It was such a disappointment. The turkey if you can't find it is on the bottom--a skimpy piece below the lettuce right before bread, not the thing below the tomato, which is the cheese. For the price, including a Fisherman's Wharf neighborhood employee discount, my sandwich and apple juice cost 8 bucks. *Blah* With a discount? So not worth it in my eyes. I will definitely pass on this place next time and head over to Safeway in the North Point Center instead if I'm seriously craving a deli sandwich. read more

Pomegranate - A sandwich, but barely any meat. Where's my turkey? - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

The Waterfront Bakery is NOT a serious sandwich place. Rip off: don't say no one warned you about the scant, transparent slivers of meat and cheese on your $9 sandwich. (See my 3 pictures.) You are not getting a ham & cheese sandwich. You are getting what is TECHNICALLY a ham and cheese sandwich. Between their almost non-existent servings of meat and cheese, the overabundance of veggies instead, and the barely-there smear of mustard, you'll wonder what you did to get on the sandwich-maker's bad side. I will never go back. Keep walking, and go to Tanguito, the Argentinian truck one street over, on Jones. Delicious empanadas, nice price, Yelp royalty. read more

I stopped in here while site seeing in San Francisco. I prefer things off the beaten path, and just wanted a sandwich and a cup of coffee. I had the corned beef sandwich. Delicious! Fresh bread, plenty of meat and a very good price. He had a variety of breads to choose from for your sandwich and it was freshly made. He even offered to wrap the leftovers if I couldn't finish. I finished it. There was a decent amount of seating as well. I would definitely come here again! read more

Lady working the counter was very kind. The pastries were not great though. The fruit tarte was good but the lemon tart was dry, gummy, and obviously not fresh whatsoever. We ended up throwing it out. Coffee was okay though. No alternative milks or flavoring. read more

Found on yelp in spite of widely varied reviews gave this place a try. Desultory staff seemed bothered by my presence I was the only person there and took them 5 minutes to even acknowledge me. Ordered macchiato as soon as I picked it up knew it would be bad, took one sip and threw it in the trash...all milk. Cinnamon roll was tough seemed To be easily day old if not older. read more

Baked goods are not fresh and delivered but staff is nice. For $4 per pastry I expect freshly baked goods.

Would not call it a bakery. Seller of pastries and breads is appropriate. We did not experience any level of customer service. Were told they only take cash at check out... not the norm in this decade. And more importantly all pastries were dry as we ate back at our hotel. read more

I was definitely tricked by the photos post on Yelp taken before the pandemic. The toasted turkey sandwich was comically bad. It was toasted but cold on the inside. The bread is not homemade. It was nothing special and easily could've gone to the grocery store and made it myself at home. I believe at one point this bakery was amazing but post pandemic, it is not back to that level yet. So sad! I was excited. read more

Waterfront Bakery manages to avoid the tourist trap vibe associated with many wharf establishments. It's semi-hidden, tucked away from the maddening crowds. Table or two outside to enjoy on fair weather days. And.. Fresh, fresh, freshy - FRESH! European-style baked goods, sourdough the way it was meant to be, excellent sandwiches, spot-on Cappuccinos. Cute, quaint and cash only. Remember that last bit or you'll leave with credit card in hand, hungry and vowing to return with currency. I did. read more
