Black Forest Bakery & Cafe

My advice is to get there as early as you can because they sell out. They’re that good! They make the best focaccia I’ve ever had! Super spongy and flavorful. A great local gem.

not sure if there have been some changes in the kitchen or something but their stuff hasn’t tasted as good lately. i had an incredible chocolate glazed berliner a couple months ago from here and hadn’t seen them since, so i was very excited to get one today and it was… meh.

Some of the best bread I’ve ever had. I stopped coming here because they now expect a tip in top of the $17 bread. It makes me feel like an jerk when I don’t tip places. I always thought that tipping was associated with a services not really for products… Are the owners not paying the people working in the van and passing it off to the customers? Idk. I go to tartine now. Which isn’t as good but the interaction is less awkward.

On February 14, 2023, I finally tried their OG sourdough rye bread & it was very good. It was very moist and the crust wasn’t too hard either. It was perfect. I will definitely come back to try some others.

Black Forest is amazing. Rodney drive - yay! Rad peeps - delish breads - lovely service can’t get enough of their bread! Order it up - you won’t be sorry!!

The bread is good! Really good. Simple ingredients, how the bread should be. But I came to the truck some many times, and they didn’t have whole assortment like focaccia or Berliners or even the type of bread I wanted. Once, then were even closed. It’s 30 min drive for me. They advertise themselves l as being open from 9am and then I’m coming there today, and they’re selling OLD BREAD from Wednesday, and don’t have fresh bagels nor focaccia. And the woman who’s in the truck saying in a patronizing way “Have a good day” when I showed I was not happy I came for nothing, AGAIN. And it happened so many times that they didn’t have the whole assortment, like I mentioned before. And then one time this guy is asking me for a tip, when I said NO with a surprised face, he gave me an attitude! It’s a bakery, not a restaurant. Tip for what? For me driving 30 min to get nothing because they don’t have it in stock? But then I’m reaching out to them with exact same words and that they wasted my time and money gas, and first she apologized and offers focaccia for free, but later on she takes it back! This is unbelievable to me, and not American standards for sure. So the bread is good but not good enough to be treated like that as a customer. After all, the whole experience is important.

We bought the sourdough focaccia and it is truly what dreams are made of. High quality ingredients, delicious flavor and absolutely perfect. Wish they did bread flights so we could try all the breads at once

You will dream about this bread it is so delicious. My amazing coworker told me about it and I just had to try it trust me you won’t want any other sourdough bread after you have had this bread! My two favorites are the OG sourdough and the sesame sourdough loaf. The bread is so delicious alone. The owner is really nice so is the guy that works for them. So happy they are so close to me.

I have travel the world to experience the best life has to offer. I came across Black Forest Bakery here in Los Angeles and fell in love. I purchased a loaf of sourdough. It was the perfect blend of sour, soft and crunchy exterior. My next purchase was several loaves because I wanted my loved ones to experience bread perfection! It was like a hug from Jesus!

I’m a bread lover and this is one of the best sourdough I have ever had. Great in every sense. I am so lucky to be their customer. I have also tried the pizza base and it did not disappoint! Yum!! And thanks for the professionalism and friendliness!! I keep coming back for more!
