Crispian Bakery is a small-batch bakery producing French-inspired American breads and pastry for Alameda and the surrounding Bay Area. We offer a range of classic baked goods for retail purchase or special order, such as croissants, pies, cakes, and naturally-fermented breads, as well as seasonal specialties, highlighting produce from our local farmers' markets.
This day is called the feast of Crispian:
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say 'To-morrow is Saint Crispian:'
- Henry V, William Shakespeare
