San Jose: West Coast Sourdough coming to Willow Glen

The rapidly expanding West Coast Sourdough chain has opened its first San Jose sandwich shop, and renovation work is under way for a location in the city’s Willow Glen area.

For its first foray into the South Bay, the company selected a site at the San Jose Market Center on Coleman Avenue.

In Willow Glen, the former Old Republic Title Co. space on Meridian Avenue next to Starbucks is being transformed into a sandwich shop. No projected opening date has been announced yet.

West Coast Sourdough specializes in sandwiches made with freshly baked sourdough rolls — their clever slogan is “San Francisco Born and Bread” — in three sizes, 4 inches, 6 inches or 8 inches long. Gluten-free bread is also available. The 20-sandwich menu features a French Dip with au jus; Tuna Salad and Chicken Salad, both made inhouse; Garlic Turkey Pesto; Buffalo Chicken (with jalapeno coleslaw); and seasonal specials.

The warm rolls feature a crispy exterior and soft interior. So far the French Dip and the chicken and turkey pesto creations have been popular at the new Coleman shop.

Supplementing the sandwiches are side dishes customers may order in cup, bowl or bread bowl sizes. Clam Chowder, Tomato Bisque and Mac & Cheese (white cheddar, parmesan) are all offered daily. Soups in rotation include Chicken & Poblano Pepper (Monday and Friday); vegan-friendly Fire-Roasted Vegetable (Tuesday); Chicken Noodle (Wednesday); Cream of Potato with Bacon (Thursday and Sunday); and Cream of Broccoli (Saturday).

The five salad options are Caesar, Cobb, Greek, Italian and Southwest Chicken.

Founded in 2020, West Coast Sourdough already has about 40 Central Valley locations, from Bakersfield north to Chico, along with Bay Area shops in Walnut Creek, Fremont and Rohnert Park. Several more are in the works throughout California.
