Four Worlds Bakery

Fantastic sourdough bakery. Go early to grab bagels

Visited Four World Bakery for the first time; two differnt bakerys in one week. Anyway, I heard about their famous Croissant and Baguettes. We purchased a loaf of Baguette and a half dozen Croissants: Three plain for me and three almond for my partner. When I took a bite, I yelled, Oui! Oui! Crispy outerlayer of plain Croissant flew all over the table but the inside was buttery and chewy. Wow, It brought back memories of being in France. Okay, let me calm down for a sec... Their Baguettse were just as good, a crunch followed by pillowy soft and chewy on the inside. We have to do another Four World Bakery run very soon. TIP: You have to get here early or you'll go home with an empty bag.

One of the best bakeries in the city. No stupid hype about "it's in South Philly and the great grandfather started the business with an old family recipe...blah, blah". The point is that that *this* Baker at *this* time: makes incredibly good breads, bagels, and croissants.I'm not sure whether or not to be happy that more people don't know about it ... I mean, they do occasionally get a line, so I want you to keep away ... But on the other hand, the owner should be a millionaire because he deserves it.
