Stopped in for 3 Tom Turkey sandwiches for the road; had ordered in advance by phone, or can also order online. Everything there looked great - bread, cookies, pastries. Friendly service. Will definitely be back!

The bread is the best in the area! They have an amazing spread to choose from! Everything is so fresh and tasty! I had the spinach & feta cheese croissant .. life changing !! I nibbled off my friends baked goods and they were all 10/10 on all boards! Took a sour dough loaf back home and still enjoying it today! Service was nice and ambiance was casual! Definitely my pit stop on my way to mammoth!

We were able to stop by Great Basin Bakery during our road trip back down from Tahoe. Lovely little bakery and not as crowded as the other bakery in town that was recommended to stop in Bishop. Staff were friendly. I bought the roasted garlic sourdough loaf to take home. It was soft and flavorful. We ordered 2 bagels for lunch. Lox and capers with cream cheese on an everything bagel and then a jalapeño cheese bagel with cream cheese. They were very generous with the cream cheese and their bagels had great texture. I also got an iced coffee, pretty standard. I wish they had more options for drinks. Restrooms were clean which is a plus.

Great food and service...but be aware of how you calculate the tip. For larger amount, they will use percentages for tip but for smaller amount they will use a "flat" rate. ( for ex, a bag of chips that costs 2.25, tipping options would be: $1, 1.50 or 2). Was grateful for their friendly service but had to question when I paid 4.25 for a bag of chips after adding tip.

The best breakfast bagel sandwiches in town. Local no frills spot for quality food. Quick and friendly service with hot sandwiches loaded with egg and meat (I got ham) for a reasonable price. You can choose your bagel flavor and add protein option for an additional charge. They have fresh bread and pastries, and a self slicer if you get a loaf. The pizza bagel was especially delicious!

Our favorite hole in the wall bakery we love to stop at on our way to or from Mammoth to pick up some bread. Sometimes we get their assortment of tasty cookies, but the garlic sourdough bread is a MUST. We take it home to make pastrami sandwiches. Unfortunately they only make the garlic sourdough on Fridays, but rumor has it they are considering adding Sundays to the rotation.

They are bust down best vegetable veggie sandwich in da world. So much spinach and so much flavor cuz of pesto they ARE GOATED. Always solid and consistently good. Cute inside and bread is rlly good. Usually crowded but it wasn't today!! Great! Nice people

Family atmosphere. Fast service. You know you're at the good place when there are just as many locals ordering. Ordered the Mt Tom Turkey and the Muffuletta. Wish I took a picture of both. Muffuletta was eaten the next day and held up being in the cooler overnight. Like how they split the lettuce in two layers. Fullness of the sandwich was not just in the center. Also had the Rosemary Shortbread, excellent balance. Not over done on the Rosemary and soft crumb.

I only knew to check this place out because a couple of rock climbing friends said this was a competitor to the famous Erick Schat's so why not. In the end, I'm so glad I did because I love this place! It's much smaller, less busy, and has less products than Erick Schat's but what they sell IS amazing and delicious. They have basic breakfast options on bagels or croissants. Sausage, egg, cheese options. Next time I need to get myself a sausage, egg and cheese croissant. Friends got it and looks delicious. Pre cut in half too! There is a large variety of bagel options and there's smoked salmon, lox spread and cream cheese options. There's freshly baked bread as a whole or slice. They even have a self slicer and toaster to use! There's even cookies and hot sauces and honeys. There were also delicious looking little pies like apple, pumpkin. Looks super cute and rustic! Both of our sandwiches were pre-cut in half! Makes it easier to eat and split and take pics of the cross sections! BLAT (with provolone added; bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato, mayo). Bacon was perfectly crispy and toppings were fresh. There was the perfect amount of mayo so that it's not dry. Choice of bread included French, sour dough or multi grain. Bread is soft.. Muffeletta (ham, salami, provolone, garlic relish, lettuce). The garlic relish was an interesting tart taste and refreshing. Tasted like a tamponade. Could use a little spice. It comes on a French roll bread that's toasted. Tazo chai was chai tea with half and half to give it a delicious chai creamy drink. It was perfectly sweetened. I liked it! I asked for less ice on my tazo chai drink and they still filled my cup up! Thank you!!! Pros: -Service is friendly!! People are nice! -Food is good! Breads are soft and freshly made. -Fast service. -Self service water with cups. -Self service milk for the coffee, sugar packets include the brown sugar and napkins. -Self service bread slicer and toaster machine next to the breads. -Hot sauce for the sandwiches. -Accepts credit cards including AMEX. -Women and men restrooms with two stalls each are clean and spacious! They're located behind a hallway past the kitchen. There are toilet seat covers. Cons: -Their coffees taste just okay. Nothing special for black or iced and no variety. I would visit a coffee shop for that. -Very little seating area so it's hit or miss during rush hour but I wouldn't put it against them. Tip: Is there a parking lot? It's so small I can't tell but plenty of street parking in the nearby residential area!

Awesome bakery, breads, cookies and sandwiches. This, to me, is a must stop when driving g through Bishop. I recommend the Mt Tom Turkey sandwich on a roll. Also high up there is their BLT on sourdough. And don't forget to get a bag of cookies and some of their fresh bread. The demi baguettes are awesome. Best place for sandwiches in Bishop.
