Starbread Bakery - Pittsburg

New management? New ownership? I'm not sure, but always a different experience with starbread. I've seen they've franchised in socal which is always a good sign. The senorita bread is hit or miss. Sometimes stale, sometimes fresh. I'd like to see their bread be fresh consistently. I hope the employees are being taken care of! I wish to see this business boom in the future, just like the old days! Good for work, good for coffee! Ambiance is quiet and the place is small! Not always busy every time I come to pick up bread.

So far my two experiences here has been hella good! The bread comes out freshly baked and glistening with butter and syrup or whatever that’s on there. I was there last Sunday when this man yelled at the lady giving the orders. He said “Where’s my bread!!??” And then proceeded to argue with the lady that she took his order and that the woman after me had gotten her bread. She didn’t take his order but he kept arguing that she did. She then told him that that lady did not get bread and that she got donuts .It was hard to tell the cashier apart from the person giving away the bread because they all had masks on and similar hair.He was upset because he thought the woman after me came out with two boxes of señorita bread but it was actually donuts. A few seconds after him being rude and making a scene he received his order. His son who was about 12 years old said, “SEE DAD! You didn’t have to do that!” Lol. The woman and I laughed. The dad never apologized!!We hoped that “man” learned a lesson! But I doubt it. He was so mean! I’m just happy to know that his son is not like him.Him being rude wasn’t necessary.I too wondered if the woman after me got señorita bread, but I thought maybe she ordered it before I got there and was just picking it up. I didn’t go crazy like that man. If I was that curious, I would have simply asked for the status of my order. Not yell out “where is my bread!!??”

I visited for the senorita bread, and it was everything I hoped for.

Delicious! The staff at the counter were friendly and helpful. The store is clean, although it's located in a somewhat run-down strip mall. Despite that, I would definitely return for the warm and tasty seniorita bread.

The star bread is excellent when it's fresh—truly delicious! However, it doesn't hold up as well the following day. A small batch is just right for anyone to enjoy.
