What People Are Saying About rockenwagner bakery cafe

In Short – The small, subtle storefront belies a large and bustling bakery, where white-clad kitchen workers in back churn out a buffet of exotic Bavarian specialties. Pretzels, scones, brioche and strudel highlight a confectionary lineup of freshly prepared treats that mix in such unique ingredients as ginger, plums, walnuts and blueberries. Popular daily sandwich specials include selections with brie and sauteed mushrooms, while soups, salads and Austrian coffee complement meals.

ripped off. Go to Bay Cities Deli instead

by mfitzpatrick33

I ordered 2 mini sandwiches. I signed the receipt. It was around 8 bucks for the two small sandwiches if I correctly remember. I was asked if I wanted a copy of receipt and I regretfully said "no thanks."

The next day I had a charge on my bank account in the amount of nearly 14 dollars.

My belief is I was marked for not asking for a receipt and that the tip line (which shouldn't be on the receipt anyway because the sandwiches were just thrown in a bag) was filled out without my consent. Had I asked for a copy of receipt I don't think this would have happened. While only a few dollars more, I find this behavior appalling and nonetheless, criminal.

Only a few blocks away on lincoln and broadway stands Bay Cities Deli. Go there instead. While the wait is a little longer, it is worth the while. Way more for your buck and best sandwiches in greater LA

Pretzels and muffins

by sbak

I love their 5 grain muffins, they're HEAVY but delicious.

Great fiber.

Also their pretzel bread is yummy but I have not had other food there yet.

Rockenwagner Bakery

by mcbaldwin

This is a great little hole-in-the-wall bakery. It's walking distance from my house, and I frequently pop by to grab a loaf of fresh-baked bread. Hans R. does a great job of providing the basics and some really interesting baked goods. It's got coffee and sandwiches and a couple of sidewalk tables. A very pleasant place to hang and chat and chew.

It is not a full on restaurant or cafe. Just a great Euro-style bakery.

  • Pros: Great baked goods, interesting specialties, convenient location
  • Cons: limited hours
