  3. George & Aida have visited Leonard’s twice during our 12 Honolulu vacations. Once upon arrival after Costco and before departure to California.
    When will Leonard open a location in Walnut Creek?

  5. Leonard’s bakery…. Such memories for my husband and I…..47 years ago we were married and honeymooned on Oahu…stayed in a tiny rooming house just blocks from a Leonard’s bakery…walked there every morning for coffee and any pastry with coconut or other Hawaiian delights…. Good memories…
