Fatted Calf Charcuterie

Living only 5 minutes away from the Fatted Calf in Napa I consider myself pretty lucky so when I was visiting my old pal Marlow Hinkletter and his little stab BeccaLin in the city, and the visit turned into dinner I went straight to the Fatted Calf down on the embarcadero. What a selection of everything I consider wonderful! Tonight's dinner is going to be duck, cooked to the rare side of medium rare. It was spectacular! ☆☆☆☆☆

Had their amazing dark chocolate croissant and their almond croissant 🥐 and we also got their strawberry jam filled pastry with a small macron puff on top (pictured). Talk about delicious! Get there early and find some shade. It's eating outside the marketplace that gives a truly quintessential San Francisco experience.

Absolutely amazing!! We hadn't planned on grabbing anything specifically, just been taking a walk on our way to the ferry, but the smells and beauty of this place drew us in! We ordered a few ounces of each of the pates, the pork being my favorite!!! And grabbed some jerky and sausage as well. What we didn't finish that day, we took to the park and had a picnic with the next day.

I love you, Fatted Calf, but the Ferry Building location is awful: difficult, expensive parking, wading through throngs of tourists, weird counter configuration and just plain inconvenient unless you live nearby. I used to frequent the Hayes St. shop, but have only made it to the new location once. Sigh.

Love the shop! The gentleman at the counter was so friendly and helpful this am. The soup was spicy pork posole, sounded amazing. We were walking so we weren't able to take with us at the moment. After our 8 mile walk around the city, I couldn't get the soup out of my head. We stopped back just prior to going back to our hotel. The soup did not disappoint!! So flavorful! The employees couldn't have been more helpful! The gentleman even remember me from the morning. Wish they shipped to WI. Will return next time I'm in the city. Thanks again!!

Cute store and butcher shop with a wide variety of meats. They offer a selection of specialty food items, cheeses, cured meats, and raw meats. It’s the ideal place to pick up some pate for a party, items for a charcuterie board, or meat for a fancy dinner. Keep in mind the location and clientele. This is an upscale butcher shop. Staff was friendly.
