Great news for anyone who loves coffee and pastries--Portola Coffee Roasters just partnered with San Francisco-based Mr. Holmes Bakehouse to exclusively carry the acclaimed company’s baked goods in Orange County. Portola Coffee now serves Mr. Holmes at all of its locations, with the exception of its Old Towne Orange location inside of Provisions Market.

"We now offer all of the same pastries that you can get in a Mr. Holmes Bakehouse location in Los Angeles or San Francisco. It’s a partnership that makes sense for our two companies, and it is an honor for Portola Coffee to be the only retail outlet to offer Mr. Holmes in Orange County,” said Christa Duggan of Portola Coffee.
