Stopped in to get anything any fresh bread or a pastry, as I walked in door first thing I noticed was no smell of a yummy bakery mind you this was at 8:09am I asked the owner/counter personal Why I cannot smell any good fresh bakery smells after a long discussion he finally said nothing is baked here no ovens just items from other vendors . Nothing Freshly Baked use your sniffer nose as you walk in BINGO you were warned

I’m kind of ashamed to ever say I used to love this place. I used to drive out of my way to go to this place.
The owners arrogance is next level. Buying Costco blueberry muffins and selling them for absorbent prices.
Knefe prices are as if he flew to Lebanon to buy the cheese and came back to sell it for a small fortune. Might I add it’s not as good as he used to make it a few years ago.
I understand inflation has hit everything but I spent too much money on an eclair that was clearly days old and a pistachio cake that was rock hard. And I am not even going to try the raspberry and apricot cookies.
I’d pay the prices if the food was good but it’s old and stale and this is just a sad way for someone to end their small business that used to have the reputation as the best.
Don’t let the looks of this pistachio cake fool you.
I hope to one day hear they got better but I’m not holding my breath.
They have good stuff. It’s too bad. They don’t answer the phone or stay open till when they say they’re gonna be open till that would just be the icing on the cake.

I enjoyed a delicious salad and sweets for lunch.I brought fresh challah home and my friend said, "the sweet, melting bread with bits of raisin and sesame seeds were bursting with flavor on my taste buds."Highly recommend!

When I was in my croissant phase, I searched high and low, and I think La Galette has the best croissants in the valley :) This is a wonderful family business and everything is freshly made with some items having a Middle Eastern flair.The father of the father/son duo can sometimes be a little cantankerous… he incredulously asked me if I even knew what za’atar is?? when I tried to order their za’atar croissant - which by the way, is delicious!I love supporting a small and local business and you should too, and try them out :) On the weekends they make knafe which is really delicious!

The service was amazing and the pastries were delicious, light, flakey and buttery, perfect texture and consistency and the coffee wasn’t quite like we’re used to in Miami, but they tried to twist it for us and it was fresh and delicious.

Sandwiches are legit! Baguettes are crispy and fluffy on the inside!
Their croissants are soooooooooooooooooooooooo goooood!!!

Absolutely amazing food and absolutely amazing customer service couldn't be kinder people or have a cleaner or nicer looking place. They make everything and everything is absolutely delicious. Will absolutely be recommending to all my friends and family and I bought stuff to share with friends and family just to show them how good it is!

La Galette Bakery on Ventura in Sherman Oaks is a hidden gem that promises a delightful journey through the realm of artisanal pastries, sandwiches, and exceptional coffee. During my recent visit, I was captivated by the sheer quality and variety of their offerings, as well as the heartfelt hospitality extended by the owner and his son.The moment we stepped inside, the aroma of freshly baked pastries enveloped the air, setting the stage for a delectable experience. La Galette Bakery takes pride in their meticulous craftsmanship, evident in every flaky croissant, buttery pain au chocolat, and delicate eclair. The pastries are a harmonious blend of texture and flavor, transporting you to a world of pure indulgence with every bite.Accompanying the pastries is a selection of aromatic coffees that showcase the artistry of the barista. The smoothness and richness of the coffee perfectly complement the sweetness of the pastries, creating a symphony of flavors that lingers on the palate.Although I didn't have the opportunity to sample their sandwiches during my visit, their creations left me eager to return. From stacked fresh ingredients to carefully crafted fillings, the sandwiches at La Galette Bakery are a feast for the eyes and surely a delight for the taste buds. They are a compelling reason to plan a return visit in the near future.The warmth and genuine care exhibited by the owner and his son truly set La Galette Bakery apart. Their dedication to customer satisfaction was evident as they eagerly assisted us, ensuring that our experience was memorable and satisfying. Their passion for their craft shines through in every detail, fostering a welcoming and friendly atmosphere that invites patrons to linger and savor the moment.With an exquisite array of fresh pastries, delightful coffee, and tantalizing sandwiches waiting to be explored, this charming bakery exceeds expectations on every front. Coupled with the heartfelt hospitality of the owner and his son, a visit to La Galette Bakery is a truly uplifting experience that promises to leave a lasting impression.

Best knaffe around they take their time to make it unique and one of a kind the reason they make it on the weekend is because they put alot of care into the products they bake here. Been coming for a while now because they make everything from scratch, make sure the freshness of their products; from the amazing croissants unlike the other bakeries who use pre-made frozen croissants, and the handmade baguettes or cookies you can tell the difference here. If you have a question stop on by staff is very friendly and can help explain the wide variety of cake and cookies that they make here. Not to mention their middle Eastern sweets they are to die for ask about those too, some are only made by order while other things like baklava or namoura are available typically. I love the graduation cake they made for my son too was sweet, great chocolate flavor, and the delicious whipped cream they make. Give this place a heads up if you have an upcoming event or birthday and they can really make just about anything given the right amount of time.
