In Short
There's one bench and a couple of chairs for pizza eaters to perch on while munching, but this is really a takeout sort of place. Thin-crusted sourdough pizza is crammed with different toppings daily. While the bakery makes a variety of breads each day, the sourdough bread is good enough to come back for. Rolls, cheese, yogurt and pastries--including chocolate cake--are available to make the start of your day a little sweeter.

Most bakeries, especially in SF, are populated by two kinds of people. Tourists, or college kids in letters scribbling notes for their medical exams. This place however, is different. It's a co-op, which means everyone makes money if the bakery does. Not always the best system, but in this case it works great. This place makes the best baked goods around; even the pizza is awe-inspiring. My girlfriend is a scone connoisseur; I've bought her those little floury, fruit filled, tea toddies from here to Hong Kong; literally. And by far, her favorites are from this bakery. My only complaint would be the people on bicycles who make this their terminus after a trip through the park. Seriously people, you are hot, sweaty, and some of you just should NOT be wearing skin tight garments around the general public. That aside, if you manage to make it early enough, they have a great selection, and some chairs outside to scarf down all kinds of cool stuff while you sample coffee from the shop next door, along with "Sunset" culture. If I should leave you with any parting words, it would be these: don't eat the pizza on a date; or at least make sure your SO partakes as well. Nothing like going in for a good-bye smooch with lethal garlic-olive oil pizza breath. Ewww. But seriously...totally great place. Go for it; you won't be disappointed.

This is hands-down my favorite bakery in San Francisco. The breads and pastries are delicious and fresh, and never sickeningly sweet or heavy. The pumpkin muffin, corn-cherry scone, brioche knot, and pecan roll are my favorites. It's almost unbelievable - every single thing they make is good! The thin-crust pizza is very tasty, light and not too cheesy - it can be a little on the oily side however. Arizmendi is usually crowded and the seats are all taken, and parking is pretty bad - still, the addicting baked goods are totally worth it.

Arizmendi is the best bakery in the area. Their scones, muffins, and cookies are delicious, but make sure to try their pizza above all else! The staff of this co-op is friendly and helpful.
