Santa Monica, Calif. – A new culinary hotspot, Bread Head, has recently opened its doors in Santa Monica, marking a fresh addition to the local dining scene. This innovative sandwich shop, founded by accomplished chefs and longtime friends Alex Williams and Jordan Snyder, specializes in custom focaccia sandwiches crafted with locally sourced ingredients.
Starting as a series of popular pop-ups, the pair’s sandwich creations quickly gained a following, encouraging their transition to a permanent location. Bread Head, which debuted in June, has already set its sights on expansion, with plans for a second location in the works.
The founders of Bread Head joined a local radio program to discuss their journey from pop-up events to permanent storefront, the restaurant’s unique approach to crafting sandwiches, and their vision for the future of the brand. According to Williams and Snyder, the key to their success has been a steadfast commitment to quality and community engagement.
