We’re coming up on yet another pandemic Easter - but this year, restaurants are open for takeout, and indoor and outdoor dining. So if you’re looking for ways to celebrate besides eating a basket full of polarizing candy, you’re in the right place. There are tons of SF restaurants and bakeries offering specials for the holiday, with everything from lamb and hard-boiled eggs to carrot cake donuts. Here are 15 to check out.
The Spots
For Easter, Lord Stanley has a $325 lamb roast meal kit for four. It comes with roasted potatoes, a rack of lamb and a grilled lamb shoulder, plus a rhubarb and custard tart. If you’re feeling particularly over-the-top, for $400, you can add on “The Ginormous Egg” - a hand-painted, two-foot-tall egg made with 13.5 pounds of chocolate. If you’d rather not spend the equivalent of a car payment on a giant egg, they also have $40 Easter baskets that come with marshmallows, normal-sized chocolate eggs, and macarons. Place your order here for pick up on April 2nd or 3rd.
Noe Valley Bakery always has great holiday-themed desserts, and Easter is no exception. You can get in the holiday spirit by ordering their carrot-shaped sugar cookies, some hot cross buns, mini cupcakes, or a very cute egg-shaped chocolate cake. Walk up, or order ahead online for carryout at either the Noe Valley or West Portal location from now until April 4th.
Che Fico has a few Easter dinner options ranging from $175-$200. Each serves four and you can get either braised lamb shoulder, farro risotto, or stuffed branzino. Whichever you choose, it’ll also come with things like stuffed artichokes and Italian wedding soup. Order here for pick up on April 4th.
Pre-orders for pick up any time during the month of April are now open on Jane The Bakery’s Tock. The special menu has everything from coconut cake decorated with Easter sprinkles to colomba di Pasqua, an Italian Easter bread made with candied fruit and nuts.
The Castro chocolate shop has a special Easter truffle box for the holiday. It comes with 16 truffles in flavors like kalamansi, peanut marshmallow, and sea salt caramel, and it’s available for, pick up, local delivery, or shipping nationwide. Order here.
Daily Driver is one of our favorite spots for wood-fired bagels - and for Easter, they’re offering a festive basket that comes with six mini bagels, Easter cookies, cream cheese with edible flowers, and a dozen hard-boiled eggs for you to decorate at home. It’s $35 and you can order it here for pick up on April 3rd at their Dogpatch location.
If you want to have Easter brunch outside, The Vault Garden will be offering a three-course prix-fixe menu on April 4th from 11am-2pm.
