Bread baked
this morning.
Pastries
still warm.

Larder is a two-location bakery cafe in San Francisco — Mission Street and Lower Pacific. We open when the bread cools, around 7:30, and we close when the pastry case empties, usually 3 in the afternoon. No app. Just a phone number.

Three columns: bread, pastry, coffee. Rows update through the day — when the rye sells out at 11, you’ll see the strikethrough. The page reloads every five minutes; we update the actual board first, this second.

call (415) 555-0148 by 4 pm to hold a country loaf for tomorrow.last updated 11:42 am
from the ovenevery morning before sunrise

Naturally leavened.
72-hour cold rise.

Every loaf in the case starts three days before you walk in. The starter is a fifteen-year-old culture from a sourdough cooperative in Berkeley. The flour is Cairnspring Mills heritage wheat, milled in the Skagit Valley and trucked down weekly. We bake nine loaves daily; on Saturdays we bake eleven.

Four
names.

Most of what we bake comes from these four. The flour, the butter, the fruit, the coffee. We don’t list every supplier — that gets boring fast — but these are the ones whose calendars set ours.

  • Cairnspring MillsSkagit Valley · stone-ground heritage flourSingle-vintage Edison wheat — milled within 48 hours of every delivery.
  • Marin Sun FarmsMarin · cultured butterTwo days a week. Honest cream — different texture than supermarket.
  • Frog HollowBrentwood · stone fruit, jamGalettes through summer. Their apricots set the calendar.
