Brian’s Breads

Their rosemary olive dinner rolls are amazing. We like Brian’s products because they’re fresh, reasonably priced & not filled w/​a bunch of preservatives. Plus we like to support local businesses so when I’m in Food 4 Less, I pick up a bag of dinner rolls and some sliced wheat sourdough. So delicious!

Brian’s bread soft fresh and tastey. We can purchase it at the Food 4 Less I and grocery outlet in Atascadero. Perfect to toast for garlic bread on the BBQ or sliced bread for sandwichs.

We have been sourdough lovers for longer than I can remember, my personal starter is over 50 years old. Brian’s Breads are the best, just don’t get any better!

Best sourdough EVER! Brian’s bread comes in many shapes, sizes and flavors! Rolls, baguette, wheat, Rosemary …

Best. Bread. Ever. Basic ingredients, no soy flour added as SL Sourdough has done.

The best sourdough bread around! Love that it’s local. Brian’s sourdough is our family’s favorite by far!

We were on a short road trip down south for some R&R when we had a chance to try Brian’s Bread. We’re from the San Francisco Bay Area and we don’t have sourdough like this up here anymore. (Insert sad face) When we tried to bread at the Cracker Crab in Pismo we knew that we had to buy some.
My husband and I LOVE bread… When the server brought the bread to the table, my Husband tried it first. He said, «You don’t want any of this bread, save room for your dinner.» Then he looked at me laughed and said, «This is the best Sourdough I’ve had in a long time.»
On our way home we ended up at the Bakery… Unfortunately, they are wholesalers and they aren’t able to sale to the public.
One of the employees by the name of Sue came outside and greeted me and pointed us in the right direction. She was awesome!!! I have to say hand down the BEST SOURDOUGH BREAD EVER!!! This coming from a bread lover…
Please find a way to sale Brian’s Bread online! Till then I will be taking more trips south to get good bread.
Keep up the great work!!! Thank you SUE!!! You ROCK!!!

Went to Cambria last week, bought a loaf of Brian’s sourdough at Soto’s. We had never heard of Brian’s bread, but my husband and I both said it was the best sourdough ever. Then we went to Sebastian’s in San Simeon, for a hamburger and pattie melt. The beef there is supposed to be the star, but Brian’s rye bread and the hamburger bun were the best ever! We asked where they bought their baked goods, so we know it was Brian’s bread. When we returned to Cambria we bought another loaf of sourdough. Yummmmmmeeeee!

Thank you so much for supplying your fabulous bread for Cannon’s fundraising event tomorrow. Always so delicious!

Dear Brian,
You’re bread is really awesome. I’m not sure if it was you who we we’re about to strong arm across the street from Dorn’s, but the ‘Asian Mafia’ was gonna take your bread, sit in your van and stuff our faces full of sourdough goodness.
Really. I’m not sure if we go to Dorn’s to eat your bread or if it’s the other way around, regardless, it’s awesome. We spoke with the delivery guy and we were told where to buy the goods, so we went to our nearest Albertson’s on our way out of Morro Bay and bought a lot of bread. It was embarrassing but we didn’t care. As tourists, instead of buying ‘Morro Bay’ sweatshirts, we bought ‘BRIAN’S BREAD!‘
I myself don’t eat a lot of bread. But I can assure you that I ate both heels from my bread basket and I’ll do it again! We might even give up rice for your bread… well that’s a stretch… but we’ll see!
Keep on baking!
Sincerely,
The Weird Asian Group of People Who Loves Your Bread

Quite simply, it’s the only bread we buy and we (my wife and I) are very particular where bread is concerned. It’s become a staple in our home for the last 2 years. I want to personally thank Brian Francisco for working so hard and caring so much to put out such a high quality bread. Brian, we hope you know that your commitment to quality is truly appreciated, how refreshing it is to read that there are only a handful of ingredients in your bread when even most grocery store bakery breads contain paragraphs. We want you to know how much we appreciate it. It’s to the point where, if Brian’s bread were not available, we’d probably resort to baking our own because we just wouldn’t be satisfied with anything else. Ingredients mean a great deal to us, wholesomeness mean a great deal to us. We are very willing to pay for the difference. We hope that your success is as balanced as our satisfaction. Sincerely Evan and Lynn.

Brian’s bread IS SLO Sourdough. You all know that, right? Well, I should say it IS what San Luis Sourdough USED to be. Then they (Brian, I guess) sold the brand to Sara Lee. Brian’s bread is the new San Luis Sourdough. It’s the best and all the best delis in town (like Full Belly Deli in Paso) use it for their sandwiches. Sourdough is from California and Brian’s Bread is from San Luis Obispo. ‘Nuff said.

Real San Francisco sourdough seemed to have disappeared years ago, except perhaps in San Francisco. We have tried many sourdoughs, even some from small famous bakeries, and have not found it. BUT, we just found it! The big Brian’s plain sourdough baguette is fabulous. It has the real old fashioned sour taste and is chewy, dense, real bread. We are very happy. I hope Brian’s does not get bought out by any of the awful regular bread makers.
Thank you Brian’s for having the brains and creativity to bring this pleasure back for us.

We have been buying SLO Sourdough for several years but became fed up in the last 6 months due to the decreasing quality, (large holes in every loaf — apparently «air» holes or something in the production).
When Vons started having Brians Sourdough, we quickly realized the great improved taste and overall quality — you must try this bread if you like good old fashioned sourdough.

I have never been to the bakery, but I will definitely go when I am in Atascadero. I found Brian’s Bread at Spencer’s and the Albertson by our apartment in Orcutt. I have tried the Rosemary, Cracked Wheat, and regular sourdough flavors. I have used the baguette, slicing and toasting with olive oil and garlic for bruschetta– Oh My Heaven– Yum-​O! This is the most AMAZING bread ever. I usually try and lay low on the carbs, but I told my husband that for the time we spend up here I am going to throw caution to the wind and enjoy this bread! The flavor is delish, and the texture is nice and chewy.
I have never had anything like it anywhere else– so I will enjoy it while I have access to it! It is the same price that you would pay for other «store» bread like Sheepherders, but it’s fresh not all chemically fake. If you see this bread buy it, if you don’t like it you can give me the leftovers! Ha! Totally not kidding!

Best bread in North America! Simple as that.

Awesome bread. Much more «sour» tasting than San Luis Sourdough. When I was a kid, SLO sourdoug was a staple in our house… but Since they got bought by Sara Lee, things went down hill. Brians bread is my new favorite.

After being a SLO sourdough faithful customer from the day they opened their door. I have recently become VERY disappointed in the quality of their product (my SLO bread get moldy just after a few day of purchase. Today I bought my first loaf of Brain’s Bread, had to open a give it a taste all I can say is WOW!!!

Hey — Straight and Simple! You can get Brian’s Bread at Spencer’s and other stores and it is Good sourdough. A little smoother than SL sourdough and sliced a bit thinner and I really like it toasted!

Brian’s Bread is the Best Sourdough Bread around and it is made right here in Atascadero. For years San Luis Sourdough was it for me but times have changed and so have my taste buds.
