Located on the famous Big Sur, California coastal stretch of Highway One. The Big Sur Bakery and Restaurant serves wood fired American Classics to an ever growing base of loyal customers. The restaurant is open for brunch, lunch and dinner, with a menu that changes with the seasons. The dinner menu features a lineup of delicious soups, salads, pizzas, roasted vegetables, seafoods, and meats from the wood fired oven and grill. Wood fired cooking isn’t the easiest way to cook, but the flavor imparted is worth the extra effort.
From 8 a.m. each morning, Big Sur Bakery entices with the smell of freshly baked wood fired bread. Every day they bake fresh handmade breads, pastries, tarts, cookies, and cakes.
Big Sur Bakery and Restaurant sources as many of its ingredients as possible from local farms and producers. This allows the chefs change the menu regularly to produce simple, seasonal cuisine, using what’s best and freshest at any given time. The best ingredients, after all, will always speak for themselves.
One of the best of a host of great Big Sur Restaurants, Big Sur Bakery & Restaurant is a collaboration between restaurateur Mike Gilson, pastry chef Michelle Rizzolo and head chef Philip Wojtowizc. Both Philip and Michelle are graduates of the Culinary Institute of America, Hyde Park, New York.
Located in a seventy-year-old lodge in the center of Big Sur's scenic corridor. It's a uniquely charming location for any occasion, from a romantic brunch, to a special dinner, to a wedding reception.
We hope to see you soon!
