American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.

San Francisco is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and San Francisco follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

A San Francisco classic that I had for the first time, just in time for lunar new year. Undeniably the best dan tat I've had in my life. After standing in the line (or making your friend do it so you can wander around Chinatown), eat your egg tart while its still steaming hot, standing on the sidewalk. Cash only.

It's normal to automatically want to try out something, once you see that people line up outside a specific place. Same thing happened to us, with me waiting in line for 30 minutes to get the moon cakes and egg tarts. Not going to lie, the freshness of the products is out of this world, since they take your order and start baking them at that exact moment, hence the long wait. Honestly, though, I was good with trying them out once; I wouldn't wait in line for the same pastries again. They weren't bad, but they didn't make me want to go back for more. If you want to try the moon cakes, I would suggest the pineapple flavor. It was the best one out of everything, for me.

The bakery is overrated. The egg tarts are okay but not worth the wait. They have poor customer service and sell through the door. They don't even let you into the store. A lady goes to the door and asks what you want. If you don't know the names of the pastries, you're out of luck. We got the egg tarts and they were okay, nothing amazing. There's another bakery up the street that has similar ones and you don't wait 30 minutes. They also only accept cash and they don't have a sign stating that, you find out once you get to the door.... luckily we had cash. Egg tarts are $3.75.

Golden Gate Bakery ✨✨✨ Yes, the line is long and yes, it’s absolutely worth it!! We came for the famous egg tarts and even though they were almost sold out, the sweetest lady made sure everyone in line got something by selling one per person. We also tried the almond cookies and they were AMAZING ( my fav ) !! Tip: Cash only. a true SF classic. Just a heads up: the lady who works there opens the door, takes your order, and hands it to you directly. It might seem a bit abrupt at first, but that’s simply how the bakery operates and it works. She’s actually very kind :) 📸 @foodiegodmotheer

This place is an institution and I had not been since before the COVID Pandemic. The first time I had the egg custard tarts, it was AMAZING! Today, the crust was not as flaky, but the custard was not too sweet and soft. Check this place out and they take cash only.
