You can get very good French-style baguette here. They also do good brown and white pitta bread (pane arabo).

Pasticceria Grana

Via Palestro, 7 - Albenga Tel 0182-50875 (in the eastern section of the centro storico, through a large arch from Piazza del Popolo, itself beside the red bridge).
This is generally accepted to be one of the best places in Albenga for cakes and fruit tarts, etc.

Dolce Angolo

There are branches in Albenga (Via Medaglie d'Oro in the centro storico) and in Leca (on the main street, Via al Piemonte Tel 0182 21780). They don't sell bread, but are very good for cakes and pastries. They also do things like Easter eggs and boxes of home made chocolates, which they will wrap so beautifully that you will hardly be able to bring yourself to open them.
