Breakfast
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
With prime people-watching, perfect pastries, and lovely espresso drinks, this bakery-café is a quintessential slice of Paris on one of San Francisco's busiest streets. All the ingredients are top-notch (butter from Normandy, fruit from local orchards), and the results show that, whether you're just picking up a few treats for the road or having a leisurely shopping-break lunch at a sidewalk table.
