Tartine Pasadena

Edit: seems like the owner took the recommendation seriously. There's rubber caps on all chairs. This is so much of a better experience. Thanks, I'll be coming back. The food and pastries here are generally acceptable, though I would describe them as generic rather than exceptional. When compared to some of Pasadena's truly excellent bakeries, such as Cars, the offerings here fall short of being 'special.' ​However, my primary issue is with the outdoor dining setup. The constant, loud screeching noise from the metal chairs whenever a patron moves them is genuinely troubling and disruptive. It significantly detracts from the experience. Simple solutions, like adding plastic or rubber caps to the chair legs(in orange), could easily resolve this major noise problem and vastly improve the atm

Extremely impolite. Try to be hip vibe and shop and all. But staff and food doesn't live up to the hype. Go to other Tartine locations. Charges or not even cut the breads for you when you buy a loaf. Food extremely expensive for what you get. Terrible. Just don't go :)

In the show, Chad Robertson, the co-owner showed the TV host Jon Fareau and Roy Choi how to make sourdough bread. Every time I go to San Francisco, I have to visit Tartine to get their croissant and sourdough sandwich even though I have to wait in a long line. The bread truly is spectacular, with incredible flavor and texture that may just ruin mass-produced sliced bread for visitors who fall in love with the good stuff. Tartine’s San Francisco cafe is a carb-lover’s paradise, with multi
