Pop Up Brunch with Le Marais Bakery

Introducing: coffee and pastries at The Bindery on weekend mornings! 

 

Le Marais Bakery owners and Cole Valley residents Patrick and Joanna Ascaso are partnering with Mikha Diaz (Two Sisters Bar and Books, The Alembic) and Christin Evans (Booksmith, The Bindery), to bring a month-long brunch pop-up to The Alembic and a bakery pop-up to The Bindery. Marrying their passion for local and artisanal fare, Paris, and, of course, books, the teams felt The Alembic and The Bindery would be a perfect location for a Le Marais brunch foray into the Haight.
 


The menu at Alembic will feature the newly launched Le Marais French Roast from Verve Coffee Roasters, a dark European-style roasted blend, as well as classic croques, eggs benedict, famous avocado toast served on croissants, farmer's market salads, a croissant egg sandwich, and brunch boards, for which customers can select their own market ingredients to enjoy smorgasbord-style. The Alembic will have a specuial brunch menu, featuring mole bloody marys and other delights. Rounding out the menu are some child-friendly offerings, like french toast and a grilled cheese sandwich, both made with the bakery's fresh baked pain de mie. 
 


Le Marais will also have a bakery pop-up at The Bindery at 1727 Haight, serving Verve coffee in french press pots alongside a selection of Le Marais' croissants, beignets, cookies, muffins, scones, and pastries, including their beloved gluten-free pain de genes cake. ​​Live music and movies for the kids are also in the works for The Bindery pop-ups: we'll keep you posted!​
