Not sure if this is the correct board to post, but I’ll give it a shot. City Bakery is opening a store here in LA in the next month or so. Is it worth going or just terribly overpriced? What’s a sure thing?

I have a love/hate relationship with the City Bakery and I’m afraid it’s becoming a lot more hate these days. I find the pastries to be some of the best in town, even worth the super-high prices. The salad bar is also...

have to agree with the OP here — City Bakery is definitely on my overrated list. The food is fresh and seemingly healthy, sure. But, at the steep prices they demand, you can go somewhere without a sneezeguard around all the...

I finally made it to City Bakery. I’ve been to the NYC one several times and really like it. Overall, I wasn’t thrilled with my experience today, though. There must be less than half of the items carried in NYC....

I popped into the City Bakery on West 18th Street last week for coffee and was surprised at how dirty everything was. The tables downstairs were taken as usual (do people spend their entire afternoons there hoping for a pick up?)...

Educating customers and employees.

My own private analysis of City Bakery: 1. The law of Real Estate: location, location, location. Chic Brentwood commercial space is costlier than unchic NYC commercial space. The increased rent is offset by the salad bar price...

by City Bakery, do you think the chocolate chip cookies are the same as at City Bakery?? I don’t think they are, I think the recipe is slightly different – I haven’t put my finger on it yet – I must do...

Any word on the opening?

Any updates? : )
