ABOUT US KENDALL'S KITCHEN GLOBAL BAKE SHOP & CZECH COFFEE CAFÉ IN PACIFIC BEACH

Discover a World of Flavors at San Diego's Premier International Bake Shop

Welcome to Kendall's Kitchen – where the aromatic traditions of Prague meet the laid-back charm of Pacific Beach. Nestled at 1808 Garnet Avenue, our world bakery and Czech-inspired kafé brings global baking traditions to San Diego's vibrant coastal community.

OUR GLOBAL JOURNEY

Founded by Mara Fortin and her daughters Kendall and Karyn, our bakery was born from a passion for authentic international pastries and the desire to create a gathering place that transcends borders. After successfully running Nothing Bundt Cakes franchises across San Diego, Mara embarked on a more personal culinary adventure – bringing the world's most beloved baked treasures to Pacific Beach.

AUTHENTIC GLOBAL DELICACIES

Step into our cozy kafé and experience a true world tour of pastry perfection:

  • Traditional Czech Kolaches: Sweet and savory filled pastries from Central Europe

  • Artisanal Sausage Rolls: Savory delights inspired by European street food

  • Handcrafted Cookies: Global recipes passed down through generations

  • Locally Produced Bread: Combining international techniques with San Diego ingredients

  • Premium Coffee Selections: Prepared in the unhurried European kafé tradition

A COMMUNITY GATHERING PLACE

More than just a bakery, Kendall's Kitchen honors the legacy of Charlie's Best Bread that served this community for 30 years. We've reimagined this beloved space as a cultural hub where neighbors become friends over steaming cups of coffee and conversations that transport you across continents.

"Our kafé is more than just a place to pick up baked goods — it's a gathering spot where friends and neighbors can come together to learn, grow, and be introduced to the world beyond PB," says Mara Fortin, bringing a taste of European café culture to San Diego's doorstep.
