San Antonio bakery Extra Fine opens Southtown location

Popular Monte Vista bakery Extra Fine has expanded its footprint to Southtown.

Extra Fine’s owners revealed via Instagram that Wednesday would be the new “secret-not-so-secret” location’s first day in business.

Ownership has been teasing a second location since February, though it was originally supposed to open near downtown. When the original plan didn’t pan out, the focus shifted to opening a satellite location in Southtown.

“Head over to 812 S Presa and check it out,” Extra Fine’s Instagram post read. “Open every day for you from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, just like our Monte Vista location. Coffee, pastries, breakfast, and lunch.”

The new bakery took over the 3,720-square-foot space that formerly housed My Juice Life, a health food spot that closed in 2022. Extra Fine’s second location is part of a planned expansion by Empty Stomach, the restaurant group that also owns Barbaro, Hot Joy, Little Death and Vibras.

Empty Stomach last month teased plans for an additional Extra Fine downtown along with an unnamed pizza joint. Details on those new locations, have been sparse, however.

Extra Fine’s Southtown location is open 7 a.m.-6 p.m. daily.
