"I can’t believe I paid $7 for this croissant… I’m ok with spending $28 on FOUR pastries (one of them is not on the picture bc I had to pop it in the oven for it to be edible..) expensive but might be worth it, right? Well this is NOT IT. I’m sorry, I don’t like leaving bad reviews but when you are charging these prices you have to do better… shame."

"This is a gem of a bakery and coffee spot. Tucked in the Woodland neighborhood in a residential neighborhood and you can get breakfast sandwiches, lunch in addition to their wonderful pastries and cookies. I took some home with me too. How this place doesn't have a line out the door all the time I don't know, but people need to know about this family owned place. They took over from the previous owners and they are so nice. Its calm and has a back patio too."

"Cozy little bakery with wide variety of vegan muffins that are corn based. First time having a corn based muffin, and it reminded me of cornbread. Not too sweet. Loved it. So special that they’re still making muffins with the original recipe."

"The baker or bakers at Muffin Mania used to make the absolute best butter croissants in all of Marin County. After Armida purchased the business, for a while, they retained their skills in making butter croissants that would rival those made in Paris. It's been a while since I consumed carbs so I went today to treat myself. What they now sell, for $6, as a butter croissant, is little more than a piece of bread. Lacking is the rich, delicious flavor of butter. Lacking is the crisp flaky exterior. Special talents and skills were lost in the ownership transition."

"Organic bakery in the heart of San Rafael. I came upon this cozy cottage looking place when I got off the beaten path of 4th street. Worth finding! Coffee and hot and cold sandwiches available but the variety of baked goods was so creative … I went for the sweets… the banana Meyer lremon bread/cake is a standout. And I loved loved loved the whole wheat very muffin. Incredible flavors and healthy ingredients! Yay! . I no longer have to be sad that Arizmendi is gone from the San Rafael scene. What a gem…. They even have an upright piano and a children’s books and game corner. I’ll be back!😊"
