Flour Craft Bakery — Restaurant in Mill Valley

Every single time I go hiking on Mount Tam or just cruising through this is my go to stop. ✭✭✭✭✭ Location: in the ex lumber area of Mill Valley this cute little area has been refurbished to provide outdoor seating to relax. ✭✭✭✭✭ Atmosphere: limited indoor seatings (one communal table and two high tables) with outdoor seating that has one area fully exposed and a sheltered area with gas heating for the winter (still gets pretty cold). ✭✭✭✭✭ Food: I come here for the soups and don't miss out on the daily menu blackboard on the right hand side of the counter. Vegan soups are great, very flavorful yet light. Much of the menu can be alternated for allergies purposes (or for vegan purposes). Provided tartines, toasts and salads as well a pastry section that will leave you mouth watering – vegan fruit crumbles in the fridge are delicious. ✭✭✭✭✩Beverages: coffee not as great - tried the cappuccino and the foam wasn't right and coffee was burned. ✭✭✭✭✩ Service: brisk and efficient, not as friendly as other venues. Price: SF avg café price - salads/tartines $12 toasts are $8. Wi-Fi: provided Time limits: none Outlets for...

Stumbled unexpectedly upon this bakery during my stay in Mill Valley. My friend and I tried several of their items. My favorites out of what I bought was my mudslide cookie and lavender scone.

We bought a lot (about 10 items between the two of us) and when I asked for a box, she scowled and walked away without saying yes. She seemed very annoyed.

The food and ambiance make this bakery worth...

I was diagnosed with Celiac disease over a decade ago, and have been trying gluten-free baked goods and pastries ever since. Here are the fast facts: Their lemon bars are second to none. Remember those incredibly buttery lemon bars Whole Foods used to sell years ago? Well, these are better, with more zesty zing of lemon, along with the buttery crust . The carrot cake with cream cheese frosting can be the cause of family infighting--it happened to me, it can happen to you. The cinnamon rolls–whether you're in the mood for one at the time or not, if they have them, you buy one. It's always a good choice. Don't be tempted by the limited-time-only seasonal pumpkin cookie. It's a circular, soft-baked cake–no chew or crispiness to speak of. There's more parking and a charming atmosphere at the Lumber Yard location in Mill Valley, but during my sunday visit at 11 AM this morning it was a cluster, peek hours I'm sure, but nonetheless it is way too small of a space to accomodate the long line and the staff appeared to be unprepared and...
