Hark, all ye soft pretzel fans rejoice — you have a new church.

Actor Adam Shapiro got bored during quarantine and started baking, which is something that most likely resonates with all of us.

However, his pandemic hobby turned into something unexpected — the ultimate place to get a Philly-style soft pretzel right here in Los Angeles.

Located inside of Gourmet Caffe 47 in Studio City, The Shappy Pretzel Co. is now accepting online orders for pick up.

The pretzels are as authentic as they come — they contain milk (sorry, vegans) and they are not gluten-free.

An order is $10 and gets you three large "S" shaped soft pretzels.

The pretzels are a favorite amongst celebs -- Ryan Seacrest loves them and so does Philidelphia native Bradley Cooper.

Pickups are in Studio City on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
