Arizmendi Bakery (Lakeshore)

I love Arizmendi. I occasionally get the daily pizza and a small soup as a weekend lunch. The food is good, and it feels good for me. I didn't realize in the beginning that the pizza uses vegan cheese, but I really like it. It's got a consistency and taste similar to actual cheese. (I'm neither vegan nor vegetarian.) I enjoy the flavors of the daily pizza. It's not a traditional pizza, but the flavors work. I also appreciate that the baked goods are not too sweet. Expect a wait on the weekends.

The menu is quality through and through. I had their pizza of the day and it left me wanting to come back the next day. Pure deliciousness and fantastic prices. If you’re in the area, make this a requisite stop – you will not be disappointed.

This was a great find for us while staying in Oakland! We stopped back for a second visit during our trip since we were so happy with the food and baked goods we got on our first visit. It’s a collaborative bakery that’s a great spot to try out some amazing varieties of baked goods. Everything from baguettes, cookies, muffins, biscuits, bagels, focaccias, breakfast breads…a whole spread. You can’t go wrong! Everything we had was amazing. The scone I had was as good as any I’ve ever had, and the same goes for the hot pepper and cheese focaccia bread. We also enjoyed their cinnamon buns and blueberry muffins. The coffee is also very good and they make it in small batches to keep it fresh. My daughter enjoyed their iced coffee. They also had cold beverages, fresh fruit, and salads, but we

This is my favorite local bakery. Their special cheese rolls, savory croissants, pizza, soup, and cookies are all off the charts delicious.

Been here a few times, pizzas are always good. Pastries and cookies are usually pretty good too. Have to check the site for the current options since they change daily but they post the schedule a week at a time.
