Last week i went to his and his wife's bakery. didnt expect to see him but after ordering our cupcakes, lo and behold, he walked in and went straight to the back (office probably) wearing a baseball cap and holding a bag from bed, bath and beyond. about a minute later, he came out and went to the bathroom to clean it. this time he was without a hat, and his hair on top was sorta long and he looked really hot! i must say in person he is much thinner than i thought he would be (and tall which i already could tell from movies). he was very tan and his eyes looked so blue! he is definitely much more gorgeous in person.

Yes, they were in the San Antonio Current newspaper and real good
publicity was given to the place. The article said "it had a taste of
Hollywood". A very eye catching article indeed.
The bakery is called "Bird Bakery" and it is located in 5912 Broadway
Street,zipcode is 78209. It is in the northeast side of the city.
Though Bird Bakery is owned by Armie Hammer and his wife,they invested
a lot of money on it and are facing some competition. Starbucks is a
few miles from them and other bakeries in the area are pretty good too.
I had no idea why I ran into him twice in 1-2 months but now I think
it is definitely because he has a business. I don't know if he will be
there if you go-maybe,if you see him act normal. If you buy food and
become a good customer he will like that more than been photographed.
Remember,the bakery is in San Antonio,Texas. They open at 7 a.m. Mondays
-Saturdays.
I do recommend you not to mention at all his movies nor ask for an
autograph,nor ask for some pictures. Don't make yourself look like
a fan at all. A lot of movie stars don't want to be recognized. Also,
try if you can to buy some food over there but if you go everyday..
it might not be a good idea they could think one is obsessed since he
is famous. Going once in a while for you to eat pasteries would be OK.
Hopefully it becomes a success, and it never closes down.
Their business phone number is: 804-2473 (area code 210),in case you
have some questions for them or want to order something. -

She can ask for an autograph if she wants,she has a right to ask,free country. And he is free to decline. If she really wants to ask,then she can,whether she buys some pastery first or not,lol. The guy is a nice champ,he wont be angry,even if he declines due to his duties at the place.

That's funny. What are you, his mother? -

yea i havent been since and that was back in May so i am not stalking. i didnt take any pix or even give him a 2nd glance (well, i did but when he wasnt looking) cos he really looked like he didnt want to be spoken to. he just seemed like a regular guy and if it wasnt for seeing them talk about it on E News and interview his wife, i would never have known it was him honestly. we had cupcakes and a cookie and it was decent. nothing i would go out of my way to go to again but it was ok. i dont live in the area so i probably won't go again anytime soon.

I believe you are not stalking,these people think the worst of the
public when they see them more than one time. I would like to eat
the fresh cocunut cupcake and the pumpkin pie his wife makes in the store,
she does all the cooking (poor thing and I heard in San Antonio that
she wakes up sometimes at 4 am and works to death in that place like
the day she opened up her business and she always opens at 7am sharp cus-
tomers or no customers except for Sundays).
He only does the tasting and she does all the hard work. The media speaks
very well of her and how hard working she is.
I do think I will go one time but after that I don't think so because
the bakery is too far away from me and I wouldn't want that Armie guy
to think that people in San Antonio want to follow him. I always thought
he wanted people to talk to him,now I know he doesn't. Thanks for the
details. -

Go as many times as you want once a year or more
you are a good client by eating in there already.
Hopefully he will appreciate you more. You are not
stalking,he should understand that.
If you now don't like the guy then maybe it is not
a good idea to see so many Hollywood movies where
actors don't treat the public well and try to see
different types of films. -

I dont think you were stalking nor think that you bothered him,dont worry about that. My dad and my mom used to tell me never to talk nor stare at famous actors and they never had any problems with them,it is wise to listen to parents. If you dont talk to him nor stare at him you will be OK. HEB has great cakes,so does Luby's and Panera Bread,they are very affordable and taste really good. The bakeries in Alamo Heights are expensive and some are not doing very well.

His wife won't mind. She puts ads in craiglist all the time that
she is hiring bakers and staff and she likes to have customers.
He is not a nice guy at all so even if you bring a friend over
there he will not be nice to you guys especially if you go many
times. He really does not like people.
If you do get to go with your friend don't stare nor talk to him at all
that is a suggestion.
He is not people friendly-that attitude can be very bad for business. -

That area has many bakeries that are very good,I don't know if
they will outdo the competition anyway. You really don't even
have to go to a bakery to get cupcakes,you can go to any super
market and buy frozen cupcakes,if you put them in the oven they
will be done in minutes and you save gasoline or you can learn to
bake them. I don't know how to bake cupcakes,I buy frozen ones and
I save money of going to any bakery. If you still want to buy cupcakes
you can go to cafes and buy them already made and fresh. I am thinking
their prices are lower than the ones of bakeries. -

I think it is best not to go to his bakery at all anymore.
I did say before that it is Ok to go,but if you are having
so many problems about seeing this guy in that place then
buying the food in there is not worth it. I also think it
is best if you don't see his movies anymore. He unfortunately
does not appreciate his viewers.
His bakery is in Alamo Heights and there are close to 10 bakeries
over there,many I have heard are better than that one. Shopping in
that area is not a good idea if you don't want to run into him.
Thanks for informing us about the bad experience you had with
this man. I definitely will not go to that bakery and I heard
the food is very expensive too. If you have more problems with
with that actor you can address your concerns to his manager as well.
Best of Luck.
