Blackmarket Bakery, originally from Orange County, recently opened a location in San Diego. The bakery offers a variety of baked goods, coffee, and sandwiches.
We visited one of the locations in Orange County a few years ago and enjoyed the baked goods and the nostalgic and fun décor, so we were excited for the San Diego location.
We visited during soft opening week. The patio area is not yet set-up, but they do have some seating indoors and a full menu available.
We got our goods to-go. Here is what we ordered:
Farmhouse Sandwich
Eggs, bacon, cheese, sandwiched between a brioche bun. This was a good sandwich, but not particularly special. We’ll probably try something else next time.
Cold Brew
They serve Dark Horse coffee here so we were able to get our cold brew fix.
Chocolate Croissant
The croissant was loaded with chocolate, though the pastry itself didn’t have quite as any flaky layers as I usually prefer for croissants.
Black Widow Tart
This is one of their signature desserts. It has a chocolate tart shell filled with caramel and topped with chocolate ganache filling.When you cut into the tart, the gooey caramel layer just spills out. I remember liking this when we had it a few years ago and enjoyed this one as well.
Overall, we had a good first visit. We’re excited to see this bakery open up in San Diego and will have to come back to try more once they’ve settled in.
