What a nice little shop, glad I live so close by. It wasn't until I dropped in to shop some options that I found that La Faine offers such a spread of delicious goods to buy that I couldn't help myself but nearly get one of every! The service was really friendly and helpful if I had questions. Also, I loved the walk-in atmosphere of the shop.

Bought a lemon cheesecake for a surprise birthday gift. This sweet treat was absolutely delicious. My hubby does not like lemon deserts much but thoroughly enjoyed the lemon cheesecake. The cheesecake was creamy and had a delicious glaze that was not overly powerful. Our only problem with the cheesecake was that it did not slice well, it crumbled when slicing. Oh. . . The crust is to die for, it left us wishing there were more crust to cheesecake ratio.

I'm so glad the owners opened up this boulangerie on College Avenue. Wonderful breads and pastries, fresh coffee, and outstanding customer service take me across the Atlantic to the neighborhood cafes in Paris. Oaktown needs more stores like this. The owners live in Oakland, they have three shops in Oakland, they hire locals to work in their shops, they promote a "Buy Oakland" approach supporting other local businesses, and most importantly, they make good stuff! And it's consistently good, visit after visit...in fact my waistline will attest to it! These stores are neighborhood jewels, and I'm so glad they're here!

I order a fruit tart every year for a Gatsby Summer Afternoon picnic. These are theeee most beautiful tarts ever. And they’re delicious. The coffee isn’t great but I can’t even deduct a star in good conscience because the pastries are so good.

La Farine is a cute little bakery. They have a pretty solid selection of baked goods; both savory and sweet. If you happen to be in the neighborhood, you should absolutely pop in and grab a small pastry to snack on, or even a loaf of bread to take home with you.

It has been awhile since I last visited, but today I was instantly reminded of just how amazing this bakery is!
The staff are so so helpful and friendly. I took home two of their savory focaccia breads. Goat cheese, pine nuts, and green onion and kalamata olives and red onion. Warmed up in the toaster oven, they were perfection.
If you have never been here or haven't been lately, you should rectify that immediately!

I love La Farine! Come here all the time. Ordered a cake for my daughter’s birthday and it turned out spectacular! They decorated it so cute. Also love their fruit tarts. One of my favorite places.
