San Francisco firefighters have contained a fire that broke out at Liguria Bakery in the city's North Beach neighborhood late Friday morning.

The San Francisco Fire Department Twitter account posted about the fire at around 11 a.m. Friday, saying it broke out at 1700 Stockton Street. A single alarm has been called.

The fire is located at the well-known Liguria Bakery. There were concerns the fire could spread to the residential units above the business. 

The owner said the fire started near the original oven that was installed in the bakery that dates back to early last century.

The fire was quickly knocked down. Some fire units remained at the scene for clean up.  

"The 112-year-old focaccia bakery Liguria Bakery uses an oven that reaches temperatures of 1000 degrees to make their famed products," San Francisco Fire later said in a tweet.

There were no injuries in the incident.
