    TLDR: good quality ingredients, hearty rather than delicate, and worth trying if you're into artisan bread The Cheese Board is known for their pizza (which I've tried ofc) but I've always wanted to try their bakery as well. I got 2 things and I rate in order: - Chocolate thing $3.75: never had anything like this! it's denser than a bread but not as dry or crumbly as a scone, which is why it's maybe just called a "thing." Studded with quality chocolate chunks. - Rosemary puff: $3.25: oiled enough to color the brown paper bag, airy and beautifully baked bread but studded with so much salt on top that the saltiness overwhelmed any rosemary flavor The breads are on the smaller side but considering that croissants and cookies are easily $5+ these days, they aren't outrageously pricey. However, if you aren't someone that intentionally seeks out unique/quality breads, I wouldn't waste my time waiting in long lines or dishing out $$ for these.

    First time here last week and it was a whirl wind of confusion. There is a line that moves TOO QUICKLY. I felt like I didn't have enough time to look around. There was literally too much to soak in. There were lots of cheeses to choose from. Not much interaction with the workers. And bread... I love bread. I just got whatever was recommended to me.

    Love this yummy, delicious , unique pizzeria with a Berkeley flair. Always scrumptious no matter what the combination of the day maybe It's worth the wait and great conversation you pick up in line. I need to visit again. It's been years since we ate there. The pandemic took them out of radius. Now we'll be back

    The shop is very quaint and has a wide variety of baked goods + farmer's market quality condiments. This is a Berkeley staple! The apple cider was very tasty and warm. It seemed like they poured it from a premade container that was sourced from a local farm and then warmed it up. Both baked goods were fantastic and baked fresh that morning. The Rosemary puff is lovingly described by my friend as a "savory donut" - and for good reason! It has a sourdough base that is both fragrant and flavorful, but not overpowering. It has the perfect amount of sea salt seasoning and rosemary flavor, and just enough oil to make it soft and slightly juicy in the best way possible. It tastes great on its own or with one of the sauces sold at the collective! The pear ginger muffin was also very yummy and fresh with a distinctly citrusy flavor. It was fluffy and not too sweet. 10/10 experience!
