A story of continuity

More than one storefront. More than one generation.

From its longtime home at 24th and Alabama to its return at 24th and Capp, La Victoria has lived through changes in family, building, and neighborhood without leaving behind the craft that sustains it. Its kitchen also made room for other bread projects, including Sour Flour beginning in 2010.
