ABOUT WEST COAST SOURDOUGH
SAN FRANCISCO BORN AND BREAD.
A sandwich is only as good as the bread it comes on. Everything we build starts there.
THE BREAD COMES FIRST
Before the fillings, before the first bite, there’s the sourdough. Ours starts with a culture that traces back to mother dough from 1995. Naturally fermented and free of preservatives, each loaf is hand rolled by artisan bakers in the Bay Area, then baked fresh at our locations.
That golden crust. That soft center. That signature tang you notice the moment you take a bite. It’s why sourdough is in our name.
We build on that foundation with meats sliced daily, fresh produce, and generous fillings. Made for your everyday cravings.
YOU’LL SMELL IT BEFORE YOU ORDER
That fresh bread aroma when you walk through our doors? That’s the welcome we believe in.
Our sourdough ferments for more than 24 hours, developing its signature flavor before it ever reaches the oven. Then we bake it fresh at our locations, bringing out the golden crust and soft center that make every bite worth looking forward to.
It’s made for holding generous layers of your favorite fillings, dipping into warm soup, or enjoying just as it is. However you order, the bread gets its moment.
