La Boulange

La Boulange

We happened upon this place for lunch while wandering and exploring the city. After a couple of hours of hill climbing, we were starving. La Boulange is a cute little café-style soup/pastry shop. They have a few small tables inside and four tables outside on the sidewalk. We each (Sue and I) ordered a French onion soup and a double cappuccino. The total bill was $9.50 for each of us. I love French onion soup and have had it in many places. La Boulange, by far, was the best. The serving size was huge, it was the size of a mixing bowl. The soup was pure perfection. And the cappuccino was to die for. It too, was a huge serving (came in a large soup sized mug). Of course, the size of the mug made it difficult to drink without getting a pile of froth all over your face. But, it was totally worth the mess. Service is counter-style. You place your order at the counter and take a seat, they bring your order out to you when it’s ready. We waited maybe five minutes for our order which was great, we were starving. The line at the counter was only about a five minute wait also. We weren’t there during peak lunch time though, so that could make a bit of a difference.
Apparently La Boulange has a few locations. The one that we enjoyed was at 1909 Union St, (415) 440-4450. The additional San Francisco area locations are: 543 Columbus Ave, San Francisco, (415) 399-0714 and 800 Redwood Hwy, Mill Valley, (415) 381-1260.
I VERY STRONGLY RECOMMEND!
