The owner was divine! Walked me through all the pastry flavors and was working the counter himself which was a treat. Absolutely amazing food 🤩

So glad to have randomly stumbled upon this cozy, cute cafe. They still had plenty of pastries on display when I came in about an hour and a half before closing time. Went with an almond croissant and Chai latte, both were delicious and served by a kind gentleman who I'm assuming is the owner. Great place to lounge and relax!

Lived in sherman oaks for over 30 years. Never tried this cafe. I lost 30 years of best espresso and pastries!!!!! What a lost! I have to compensate myself by going at least 3 times a week. I made a list: brioche, khallah bread, almond crossiant, ...my list is long and I am still young.

This bakery has a really nice selection of fresh breads, pastries, and cakes. Everything I’ve tried has been tasty and feels like it was made with care. The staff are welcoming and the shop always smells amazing when you walk in. Sometimes it gets a little crowded or certain items sell out quickly, which is the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars. Overall though, it’s a great place for fresh baked goods and worth coming back to often.

Food is delicious and homemade. Staff is so friendly, especially Milla :)
Got the cinnamon roll, chai latte, and the Nutella churro. All were 10/10
You know how - when you happen accidentally on a place and - in the moment - you really feel happy you discovered it...?
You REALLY want that feeling to last. And you want that feeling to continue even after you've left it... with the idea that it might moving forward be a 'go to' for ... whatever it is they provide or sell?
Yeah. I do too! And I REALLY wanted to love this place. It has a sweet story behind it: father and son buy a failing, quaint cafe in The Valley, in a popular part of Sherman Oaks, and the son is a baker - so he bakes fresh pastries and breads... and the father more or less runs the business.
I happened upon it as I was leaving my pharmacy (Essentials - terrific Pharmacy!!) and the muffin place next to it was already closed...
I spotted the the aforementioned father - GRIGOR - starting to close up shop, and asked if it was okay if I bought a croissant or something (it was 4 pm and I hadn't yet had a chance to grab lunch). He kindly allowed me in, and I purchased a scone and an iced latte. That came to approximately $14+ - more or less the insane pricing we've all become somewhat accustomed to.
As we were chatting, and he shared his story, I wanted to thank Grigor for sharing his lovely story and for staying open a bit longer - and I spotted a Veggie Sandwich on their menu board which read like a great sandwich. So, I ordered that, too. That came to 16$ as well. So, all in, for essentially a sandwich, a small scone, and a medium latte - I've spent over 30$!
Hmmm. The scone was tasty. The Iced Latte was good - coffee was flavorful - but the drink was gone in approx 8 sips. (LOTS of ice. SMALL medium sized cup).
And the sandwich...sadly very disappointing. Bread was light, but a bit flavorless (I had thought it might have a bit more sourdough or other flavor. It was more or less white bread, but better quality). I've included a photo of half of it - you can see it's SMALL (and my hands are small!) Just basically one slice of swiss cheese, a bit of avocado (it had, maybe, 2-3 small slices!), bit of lettuce, 2 tomato slices, and some olive tapenade.
It was done in about 9 bites. REALLY disappointing. Not filling, not all that flavorful, and over $16.
I totally get it - businesses are all struggling with the tariffs, the economy, and it's becoming impossible to feel like you're getting a good value ANYwhere. But I couldn't help wondering - what if they just knocked 2 $ off so at least it felt like SOMEwhat of a fair deal. It's not gourmet - it's fresh, it's fine, and the place is very sweet and pleasant to walk in to... but at 30$ for not even a real meal... just not worth it.
But I wish this lovely family every good thing, and maybe as they grow and continue to gain experience, some of the pricing will either level out to a fair match to the quantity/quality - or the quality will improve where you feel like the splurge is worth it.
I will note: the muffins had sold out that day - so perhaps that's their real focus. The menu reflects pricey - but maybe those are worth it.
Thank you!

Absolutely blown away by this bakery! They made the most beautiful birthday cake I’ve ever had — and even helped coordinate a surprise delivery to my friend’s place. Not only did it look stunning, but it was hands down the best-tasting cake I’ve ever had. You can tell they put real care into every detail. I’ll definitely be ordering from them again!

Grigor and Belle Bakery are fantastic. I ordered a cake to surprise my daughter for her birthday. Grigor went out of his way to make this long distance transaction go smoothly. The cake was a feast for the eyes and tastebuds!
