San Francisco’s sweet destination serving a fresh, seasonal menu of truly unique desserts made with organic dairy and locally-sourced ingredients. Sixth Course is exclusively a dessert shop specializing in small-batch production of handmade bon-bons, French style pastries, and gelato made in-house. The menu is showcased in three stunning cases. You'll find award-winning chocolates, creative petits

gateaux, tarts, fresh panna cotta, and rich pots-de-creme. The frozen case features hand-dipped gelato pops, sorbettos, semifreddos, and our made-to-order gelato paninis. We always make gluten-free and dairy-free options, and only use sustainable and compostable to-go packaging. In October of 2014, Chef-Owner Gianina Serrano opened the doors in San Francisco’s vibrant Mission district. After many years working in the Bay Area's finest kitchens and luxury five-star hotels, she created a space to showcase and share her love for pastry. The name was inspired by an old cookbook. It indicates the sixth course as dessert in a seven course menu, and the company logo of circles represents that place setting. The showroom features truffle-inspired lights, sea glass tile, and elegant cases displaying a trifecta of sweets. The state of the art kitchen includes two tempering machines, a clean room for pasteurizing, and all of the essential accoutrements. Watch how it’s made and wave ‘hello’ through the exhibition window. Check us out on Instagram and on our website!
