Crema's Take

Model Bakery's legendary English muffins—reportedly an Oprah favorite—arrive impossibly fluffy and pair perfectly with their robust dark roast, making this an essential stop for anyone serious about Bay Area breakfast. The kitchen executes their limited eggs benedict menu flawlessly (the Southern sausage version is a Walnut Creek exclusive), and the espresso-forward coffee program gives you reason to linger in the relaxed, walkable atmosphere even after you've finished eating.

What to expect

Espresso-focused. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Really love the fact that they have a single option for the eggs benedict. Can never go wrong with their english muffins. I heard this Southern Sausage Eggs Benedict is a special to the Walnut Creek branch.

Came here for brunch with my cousins and was told that the English muffin is one Oprah’s favorite things. The English muffin was pretty good. It’s very fluffy to eat. I had the mushroom sandwich which was good.
