Master Critic Review

Gone Bananas Bread Co. (Brentwood) 7.7
Brentwood
A single-product bakery built around sour cream banana bread in rotating flavors — the plain Big Banana and blueberry Bluenana are the reliable picks, while the deep-fried Bananyays offer a fritter-like indulgence. The Brentwood storefront leans into playful, Instagram-ready branding with neon signage and heart-shaped loaves, though loaf prices in the $40-58 range make this more of an occasional treat than a regular stop.
Must-Try Dishes: OG chocolate chip banana bread, Cinnabanana loaf, Banana bread pudding
