Not worth the drive. Was extremely far from me but I had been wanting to come for awhile. I just dont know why you dont make enough pastries. Not saying you have to make a ton but at least add 3 more pastries than usual to the popular ones. I was really looking forward to trying the black sesame but it was sold out. It was very disappointing.

Did anyone say Croissant? Their pastries are yummy, drinks are great, the vibe is chill. Parking can be challenging and the line could get long, but if this place wasn't great, then there wouldn't be any of these lines. Enjoy the waiting game, but if you get lucky, line can go fast and parking can get easy.

About a 3.5. Pastries were not warm. Coffee solid but unremarkable. Still looking for an LA spot that rivals 6100 Bread in Santa Ana.

The pancetta biscuit is the best thing I’ve ever had

Staff looked annoyed and made me feel out of place, food was good.

Very pretty pastry and fun to look at, however, I fear Fondry struggles with consistency and technique, where the standard butter croissant is often underproofed, causing the outer layers to split from the denser, under-risen core.

Came around noon, and everything was sold out. The only thing that was cooling down was the sesame tart, so we got one. Pastries was good. I would definitely go for the pastries. However, their drinks could definitely use some working on. Cortado was too bitter with their espresso/ beans, and match raspberry was watered down. Could tell matcha was not of high quality but the concept is a good idea. If you're coming here, definitely try the pastries... If they're not sold out. 😁

This spot is popular for good reason. The pastries are delicious. The shop is small and only allows 8 people inside to wait at a time, so there is often a line outside. The line moved quickly for us…despite the fact that the staff inside are perfectly willing to answer questions about their products as we decided. We didn’t feel rushed.
They also offer coffee, but it may be more of an afterthought as their outside menu only lists the pastries.
Overall, a gem.

I completely channeled my inner Justine Huang to get a pastry on my run in Highland Park and my friend recommended I try the apple pastry from Fondry! It was not too sweet but I felt there was kind of a dry crunch? Not the driest pastries I’ve ever had, though, and I’d be willing to come back to try more. They were sold out of the kouign amann by noon on a Sunday but the line wasn’t bad.
Ritual humiliation of spending $30 on coffee and croissants for 2 and seeing a tiny mouse directly as you’re about to eat it. The tiny mouse implies the presence of other mice—a family of mice, if you will. Seeking compensation for psychic harm. Images available upon request.

The mushroom croissant was my favourite item from this bakery!

Great taste croissant
