The Scene – While the bakery remains a premier destination for its unrivaled loaves, it also carries a sophisticated selection of imported and California artisanal cheeses, specialty desserts, sandwiches and other gourmet items. – – The Food – Popular favorites include olive bread, roasted garlic and rosemary-olive oil, which will seduce you with its aroma, texture and taste. Simpler selections are every bit as satisfying. The pain rustique is crusty and flavorful; the country-white sourdough is great for sandwiches; and the baguettes are magnificent. Try them with…

Great bakery with extras

Their baked goods are heavenly. We especially enjoy the olive oil and rosemary bread. Pastries and savories are sometimes from the previous afternoon, but I prefer my croissants a little less flaky. The staff is helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Don't expect too much special attention during their rush times, but even on Saturday mornings the line moves quickly and they get your order right. I don't think the price is out-of-line with the quality.
OVERPRICED and OVERRATED!!!

I paid $4.25 for a very dry almond crossant and the Caffe Latte I ordered was barely lukewarm. Almost $8 for this? I'll stick to The Coffee Bean. There's also no parking on La Brea anywhere near this place during rush hour unless you valet your car. OVERRATED!!!
My favorite bread shop!

I go here often for the yummy cannele and dried-fruit scone, along with great breads, rosemary and olive, cranberry and walnut, currant ...
Fantastic pasteries and cheeses!

La Brea Bakery is nationally reknowned for its delicious breads and other treats, so the food will not be a disappointment to you! They offer a wide variety of skillfully crafted, and delectable foods in a charming French Bistro-esque atmosphere.
Everytime I went to La Brea Bakery, we went in to the bakery side not the restaurant, and took our pasteries out to their street-side tables to eat. We have even spotted celebs eating at La Brea Bakery!
