House Of Bread — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I love this place. the bread is delicious, from baguette to boule. it's crusty on the outside and tender and fluffy inside. absolutely perfect for dipping in soups and shakshukas and all sorts. sometimes I buy a baguette and eat it with sharp cheese. yum! without hyperbole they make the best chocolate chip cookie I've ever had everyone who works there is super friendly and stops to chat and say hi. in a busy and sometimes unfriendly place like a city, this is appreciated. they are warm and welcoming every single time.

I used to bake my own bread, but what they can make here is so much better than what I can achieve. Also I love to support a small local business and they absolutely deserve bread loyalty.

Wow. 10 Stars! Best Bread and Croissants i've had in the U.S. Do not be confused by the very unassuming, basic little storefront. It is easy to miss this place, there is little signage, and the store is tiny. But OMG, this is REAL bread. One slice and you will ask yourself what you have been eating all your life (unless you have been lucky enough to visit some artisan bakeries in Paris). The whole wheat sourdough is AMAZINGLY GOOD---dense, flavorful texture inside, leathery crust outside. This makes the stuff they sell at even higher end stores like Bristol Farms taste like cardboard. And try the chocolate croissant--hands down the best one I've had outside of Paris. Period. This place may be the best kept foodie...
