La Boulange Bakery Cafe AKA La Boulange de Walnut Creek is finally open in Walnut Creek at 1348 Broadway Plaza next to the old Bing Crosby’s, which itself is currently being remodeled and will become a bar gastropub called The Corners Tavern.
Here’s a glimpse of the inside:
Plenty of baked desserts, breads, salads and open-faced sandwiches among other things. Compared to the Lafayette location this seems likely to get more traffic, hence the Formica tables that are easier to clean. The immense amount of natural sunlight beaming in really opens everything up, and the food was quite good when I tried it for lunch today.
This is a great addition to Broadway Plaza as that area lacks the quality eateries available downtown. Any fans?
Update: Thanks to the commenter for pointing out that it will be called The Corners Tavern with a gastropub concept.
