San Francisco’s culinary scene is about to get a whole lot more delicious with the arrival of Leadbetter’s Bakeshop in the Castro.

Get ready to drool, carb lovers, because Jamieson Leadbetter is bringing back his legendary English muffins and opening a dedicated bakery that will make your breakfast dreams come true. After a hiatus from selling his signature puffy muffins at local spots like Bi-Rite and Good Eggs, Leadbetter is returning with a vengeance.

A Muffin Lover’s Paradise

Starting mid-May, you can snag these heavenly morsels Wednesday through Sunday, with doors opening bright and early at 7 or 8 am. And let’s talk flavor variety - we’re not just talking your basic plain muffin. Think cinnamon raisin, cherry-chocolate, apricot-ginger, cheddar cheese, and roasted onion.

More Than Just Muffins

But wait, there’s more! The bakeshop isn’t just about muffins. They’ll also be serving up breakfast and lunch sandwiches that will make your taste buds dance. Located in the former Castro Fountain space at 554 Castro Street, this bakery is poised to become the neighborhood’s new go-to breakfast spot.

San Francisco’s Culinary Renaissance

This isn’t just about muffins - it’s about San Francisco’s ongoing love affair with artisanal, locally-crafted food. Leadbetter’s return represents the resilience and creativity of our city’s food scene, proving that great food can always make a comeback.
