SAN FRANCISCO BORN & BREAD
About Us
Natural Ingredients. Natural Taste.
Our sourdough is completely natural & 100% free of preservatives! Proudly using a starter that originates from a mother dough from 1995, our bakery in San Francisco is always working overtime to keep our stores fully stocked & your belly full!
Our Story
How did we get started?
West Coast Sourdough started because our founders humbly believe a sandwich is only as good as the bread it comes on! That is why we use the finest sourdough bread, hand-rolled by our artisan bakers in the Bay Area. We hand-slice our premium meats daily, and always use local produce vendors for daily deliveries! So when you're ordering in a West Coast Sourdough, your sandwich has bread baked seconds ago, meat sliced minutes ago, and crisp produce that was on a farm hours ago!
Fresh Means Now
How often do we bake our bread?
Every few minutes! Our ovens are always baking from open to close, with fresh batches of sourdough coming out right before your eyes!
Just Flour, Water, & Salt
Why choose sourdough?
Aside from being delicious? Sourdough has folate, a B vitamin that’s important for heart health - about half the amount we need per day can come from a thick cut of sourdough! Sourdough is also rich in thiamin and niacin, both of which can boost your metabolism. It’s packed with iron for oxygen, zinc for your immune system, and magnesium and calcium for bone, muscle, and nerve health.
Location is Key
Where is the BEST sourdough?
You can make sourdough bread anywhere, but there are only a handful of places in the entire world that have the optimum conditions to allow for truly delicious sourdough bread to be made. San Francisco, with its unique mix of temperature and moisture, is one of these spots, and during the California Gold Rush, French bakers brought sourdough baking techniques to the West Coast.
We Love Giving Back to Our Local Communities!
We are proud to share that 100% of our locations in 2021 sponsored a local middle or high school sports team, 87% of our locations hosted a Spirit Night to raise funding for local educational causes, and 4 out of every 5 West Coast Sourdough locations donated an additional $500 or more to it's communities!
National Sandwich Day!
For National Sandwich Day in 2020 we wanted to partner with a local non-profit to not only give them delicious sandwiches for their team and donors but we also wanted to make a financial contribution to aid them in their efforts of improving the lives of those who live in the greater Sacramento area.
We chose My Sister's House because they have an amazing mission to help women and children who have been victims of domestic abuse and human trafficking to heal and start on a new path toward love and happiness.
We donated 120 sandwiches on November 3rd to them and also donated $0.50 of every sandwich we sold that day at all of our locations to My Sister's House.
