Alomd croissant was i believe the best, size is on the smaller side. What i Enjoyed was that it had perfect amount of almond paste inside as well as it had the right crisp when you bite into it. What i though could have been better, is that i felt too many almonds and prominent butter flavor. My daughter didn't like the pumpkin scone as she said it was too buttery and not enough pumpkin flavor. Pumpkin tart she also said the crust was a bit stale, but the pumpkin filling inside was delicious. I would like to go back and try their kouign Aman and coffee when I am in San mateo area. I would recommend this location for fresh, homemade pastries if you are in the area as parking can be a bit hard to find.

I don’t review anything, but I love coffee and I like looking for new places. Bonjour Bakehouse is off the charts incredible! The latte is so smooth, and their specialty is scones, and I don’t think I’ve ever had a better scone anywhere! I highly recommend this place.
One of the best bakery/cafes in the Peninsula! I never knew about French style scones until I tried one at Bonjour Bakehouse and now I am hooked! They are buttery, fluffy, and full of flavor whether it's a sweet or savory variation. Their plain scones are a good introduction but I have also enjoyed their salmon, French pimento pepper, and apple varieties. One of the owners was the chef behind the Doughbies startup so definitely try one of their cookies too!
Their coffee is solid as well with lattes being on the milky side but I appreciate having decaf available. Parking can be tough but now they expanded their indoor seating area so it's worth a longer visit. Also, they are on Too Good to Go occasionally and it's such a good deal for $6 to try some of their treats! Merci, Bonjour Bakehouse!

This is amazing. Ordered pastries and coffee for a meeting of 18 people and I don’t think anyone will remember what I said in the meeting but they’ll remember how good the pastries and croissants were! Staff was super helpful and made everything so easy. 10/10 would recommend.

I grew up in the Bay Area and moved to Colorado a little over a year ago. Every time I come back to visit family or for work, one of my top priorities is revisiting my favorite food spots and discovering new gems. Bonjour Bakehouse is officially on the must-return list.
I ordered two croissants, one sweet and one savory, because I simply couldn’t choose. Both were buttery perfection with the kind of layers you only get from bakers who truly care. The service was warm and above-and-beyond, and the ambiance made it the perfect place to slow down and savor every bite.
Already counting down to my next visit

Wow!!!!! What a pleasant experience. My husband and I wanted to find some croissants close by, and a we remember a friend recommending Bonjour Bakehouse. I walked in not feeling my best , and as soon as we stepped in the owner François greeted us with a smile and a Bonjour. He is so kind!! And had such a great energy to him. The woman as well! He recommended the scones and we were blown away!!!! Soft, buttery, tasty, oh my goodness. A delicious matcha latte, all packed in compostable packaging. (Eco friendly in the Bay Area?!) I really forgot where I was for a second! The genuine kindness, the QUALITY baked goods, the chance to converse in French! Thank you so much for making our day, we will be back. ❤️
