Mentone and Manresa Bread are set to become the first tenants at The Junction, a retail, restaurant, and gathering spot planned for the North 40 housing development in Los Gatos. Groundbreaking for the Mentone restaurant and the Manresa Bread bakery is scheduled for September. Mentone will be the second location after the original in Aptos, known for a casual menu drawing from Italian-French Riviera and coastal California influences. The original opened during the 2020 pandemic with takeout-only service and artisanal pizzas prepared by David Kinch. Manresa Bread began as pop-ups in 2013 with Avery Ruzicka and later expanded to multiple Bay Area locations. The two businesses will occupy 7,170 square feet at The Junction near Los Gatos Boulevard and Walker Street.
"Two of celebrated chef David Kinch's culinary ventures have signed leases to become the first tenants at The Junction, the retail, restaurant and gathering spot planned for the North 40 housing development in Los Gatos."
"Groundbreaking for the Mentone restaurant and Manresa Bread bakery is scheduled for this September, the Harmonie Park Development Co. announced Wednesday."
"That restaurant, with a casual menu that draws influences from the Italian-French Riviera and coastal California, drew headlines when Kinch and team opened it during the 2020 pandemic. They offered takeout meals only at first, with Kinch himself - masked, gloved and safely distanced - making artisanal pizzas."
"At The Junction, fans of Mentone and Manresa Bread can expect to find spaces and experiences tailored to this gathering spot, which sits in the middle of the North 40, near Los Gatos Boulevard and Walker Street. Together, the two businesses will occupy 7,170 square feet."
