Arizmendi Bakery is a network of independent bakeries located in the San Francisco Bay Area of California in the United States, including locations in San Francisco, Berkeley, Emeryville, San Rafael, and in Oakland. They are all worker-owned cooperatives which are independently operated but share similar products and recipes. In 2011, Arizmendi was voted the best bakery in the east bay by the East Bay Express. The bakery makes pastries, pizza and bread. Arizmendi Bakery were inspired by and supported by the Cheese Board Collective, with the first location, on Lakeshore Avenue in Oakland, opening in 1997. It was named after Basque priest and labor organizer José María Arizmendiarrieta. Food reviewer Tamara Palmer, from SF Weekly, called their Auntie Mabel's Kookie Brittle the best cookie in San Francisco. They also make fruitcake, using local dried fruits from the Rainbow Grocery Cooperative. During December 2011, the San Francisco location sold 400 fruitcakes daily.
