SF Weekly has an amusing article on a real artery-clogger: the Belfast Bap sandwich. This Irish sandwich is “Irish bacon, Irish sausage, scrambled eggs, and cheddar cheese folded into a fluffy roll the size of a boulder”. Uh oh, that sounds pretty tasty.
The sandwich is $6 and you can get it at John Campbell’s Irish Bakery at 5625 Geary at 21st Avenue. The bakery is open Monday through Saturday 7am-10pm, and Sunday from 7am-8pm. And if you’re next door enjoying a game and a pint at the Blarney Stone, you can order one there too.
I’ll have to check out John Campbell’s Bakery. According to the website, “John holds the Order of The Master Baker from Belfast, Belfast City, and holds a Guilds Bakery Certificate making him the repository of many decades of baking tradition in the authentic old style.” The bakery opened in 2007.
The bakery, especially its scones, gets top reviews on Yelp, and they promise authentic Irish baked goods “made in the very same fashion with the very same ingredients that your parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents might have enjoyed.”

Bap rocks! Toss a few scones (my fav is chocolate chip) in the bag for later, might as well do it right! Staff is friendly and glad to see you.
I 2nd the scones comment, deeeeeelicious. Also they make these herb/onion things they call focacias that are awesome, too!
Oh this place is heaven to a carb freak like me. Everything I’ve had has been really fresh, not too sweet, not too refined-tasting, and well worth the rather inexpensive prices. The scones are great, the bread is stuff of my dreams and the cookies are wonderful. Am I missing anything? I’ll have to go for breakfast tomorrow and see! Thanks for reminding me.
