Such a perfect place. Everything is top quality. Tonight I saw Meyer Lemon merengues and bottles of chocolate syrup. I'll go back tomorrow to buy them.
The chocolate syrup is delicious. Today they are offering both Vanilla and Rose merengues. And scrumptious sandwiches, as usual.

I came home from a long day at work to an amazing surprise from my friend- 3 pastries from Alexander's!
To say that the one I've eaten so far was sumptuous would be the understatement of the century. Definitely one of the most exquisite pastries I've ever had!

I've been to Alexander's Patisserie several times, and they truly are a good place to visit if you're looking for well-decorated and beautiful desserts. They taste good as well and are primarily mousse based which some people may prefer. The price is a bit steep, but you can see the quality and craftsmanship in their desserts so I don't think it's too expensive for what they sell.
Staff is helpful but has spilled several of our drinks when serving them at the table. The seating area is often full and crowded and can't accommodate large groups, but you could also try to sit outdoors. The indoor dining also is a bit messy as people are constantly coming in and out.
It's a classic spot for a hot drink and a dessert, and I definitely frequent Alexander's when I'm in the area!

Stopped in for a quick coffee and desert while we waited for friends. The food was delicious and the coffee was perfect. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

4.5/5 Well executed, perfectly looking desserts! I wasn't expecting to find a good quality bakery in the Bay Area, but was happy to stumble upon this one.
I try pistachio desserts wherever I go and these ones were solid: not overwhelmingly sweet, the one with the raspberry mousse was so well balanced (in many places raspberry overpowers, but here it was perfectly creamy and subtle), beautifully designed with a stable mousse (which survived a day-long transportation!), crunchy and well-layered croissant.
The only missing bit was pistachio tasting not strong enough. I wish it were so that the desserts could be perfect in every way.
Amazing place , with very friendly staff and exquisite goods. The price matches the quality!

I got one of their popular cakes earl grey on the New Year’s Eve. I have tried this flavor before but this time it tasted nothing like the previous time and was very bitter. My guests didn’t like it either.

The lattes/cappuccinos to-go should also be made with the same effort in pouring ... just dumping it in a cup with no pouring technique changes the texture of the milk and the overall taste. It's odd because when you order to sit down, they make it properly usually, but not to-go.
Beautiful cake. Made my day!
