About Boudin Bakeries
In 1849, Isidore Boudin combined his skill of French bread baking with fermented wild yeast nurtured by the fog-cooled air. This magical combination created The Original San Francisco Sourdough™ -- Boudin. The bread with its dark golden crust, soft, chewy center, and distinctive flavor soon became a local favorite. We are San Francisco's oldest continuously operating business. Much has changed since our boomtown beginnings, but one thing hasn't: our commitment to honor and preserve the art and science of The Original San Francisco Sourdough™
Joining our team
As the oldest continuously operating business in San Francisco we have learned that when we break bread together, fresh every day, good things happen. We offer a variety of ways to join a team of hard working, spirited people who take pride every day in building the next 150 years of history for Boudin -- all while having fun!
