b. patisserie is hands down the best place to get pastries or a quick brunch. You will find a mouthwatering bar surrounding limited, intimate seating in this Lower Pacific Heights cafe with an outstanding and impressive array of scones, croissants, cookies and treats. Never once has anything tasted stale, it’s always fresh and baked to perfection. There is often a line, and it is worth every moment of the wait! Some of my favorite treats are the Chocolate Banana Almond Croissants or the Savory Cheese and Bacon Scones. The Flammenkuche is also too good to be true. The menu varies each day, but this place is an absolute MUST!
