IZOLA

VOTED BEST BAKERY IN AMERICA !

Packed out on Saturday morning.

Back in August, 2021 we discovered IZOLA for the first time at their original location not far from here. Over the years we have tried just about everything on the menu and loved it all. Without a doubt Jeffrey and Jenny the co-owners have a vision, a commitment to bake the best sourdough bread and gourmet croissants in the world. When we heard their brand new state of the art bakery was opening around the middle of 2024 we marked our calendar. And once you have tasted their incredible sourdough bread and amazing croissants you will agree they are the best. My wife and I had a fun packed weekend planned down San Diego . . Padres game on Friday night and Stray Cats on Saturday.

FIRST UP ! Straight after breakfast early on Saturday we headed over here to pick up our bread & croissant order at 10am. Of course this was the brand new location . . . from the ground up. When we arrived in the street out front it was obvious parking was going to be a nightmare. BUT THEN ! A dude in a BMW was waiting for his wife to collect their order and soon after we nabbed his street parking spot very close to the bakery. We headed over to join the long line waiting at the front entrance to collect their online orders. MEANWHILE ! I went for a stroll inside and was amazed how many people were sitting at the cute red table and chairs 3 piece patio sets.

Fresh out of the oven !

While my wife held our spot in the pre-order line I hooked up with Jeffrey the co-founder / owner / master baker . . . we had a quick chat before he had to get back to work. Jeffrey always finds time for his customers and supporters. Eventually we picked up our online order . . 1 x Olive Toasted Pecan Sourdough and 1 x Almond Croissant. The best quality doesn’t come cheap but believe me it’s worth every cent. YOU ARE GONNA LOVE IT !
