You know the bread must be good when you see a long line to buy it. We had lunch there our first day in SF - we liked the cheese sandwich. We also grabbed a loaf one morning. So fresh. Cash only.

Got there right before closing time and the clerk was accommodating. The olive loaf was perfectly crust & soft. Good to eat all by itself.

On day 2 of our trip we went to Tartine Bakery (see review). So on day 3, we walked down to the Ferry Bldg from Union Square, and had pain au chocolat and almond croissant from Acme Bread Co and a cup of Peet's coffee. Oh my, what a delightful way to start the day. The croissants were just the...

Got there around 7 AM so there was no line which was nice. Girl at the counter took the time to explain to me two different types of bread. I got a loaf of their sourdough bread. It was good, but nothing extraordinary. It's bread. At a fair price in a touristy building.

I live in San Francisco and get to enjoy Acme Bread whenever I want - luxury I know! On my last visit, I ordered my usual Epi loaf and then I asked simply, 'do you have any Rye varieties?" The clerk, in an exaggerated loud voice said, "Dye? No, we don't dye our bread!" No I asked again and then...

Go there early. The most popular bread sell out at around 2pm. My favorites are their green onion slabs, Pain de Mie and their specials. Last time I went there three weeks ago, they had roll with dry fruits. They were really delicious. Staff was really friendly.

If it aint ACME, it aint worth having! Best bread in the Bay Area. The crust is so tasty and good. I love to just hang out and smell the baking bread. Definitely worth seeking out. Demand that your local restaurant serve ACME bread.

I found this gem in the ferry building. It had a line for fresh baked bread. I enjoyed the sour dough.
