When Hans Rockenwagner opened Cafe Rockenwagner, he aimed to introduce an Old World twist to the trendy flavors of California cuisine. Later, he made a bigger name for Cafe Rockenwagner by adding Rockenwagner Bakery to his repertoire. With a team of European bakers and pastry chefs, Rockenwagner Bakery has become a favorite of big-name clients.
Rockenwagner Bakery can also be seen at local farmer's markets, as the breads and pastries are baked daily with fresh, local ingredients. Cafe Rockenwagner provides advanced customized catering services for any event, from lavish business parties to small celebratory brunches. The pretzel burger is a huge hit with regulars and visiting guests, and it was invented by Hans himself. Other popular menu items include the avocado toast, grilled weisswurst and German apple pancake souffle.
