The instant you step foot into Grateful Bread, the smells slaps you in the face, in a good way. For lack of a better way to say this, it makes you want to lick the walls, seriously. The menu is full of surprises, bread, cinnamon rolls, huge cookies, and muffins are bountiful, you can't stop at just one of anything.

Remember when you went to the wharf in San Francisco, and got a nice hunk of ACME bread? Me too. Now you don?t have to drive a hundred miles out of the way to get it either, thanks to Roseville Bread Company. If you want to compliment your fancy gourmet dinner and blow your friends socks off, make sure to make a pit stop at RBC. Your friends will rave, and I think owner Marty Ellison might even let you take credit for the bread if your nice.
