New ownership has completely changed this place! This is now a world-class European bakery with croissants, danishes, muffins, sandwiches, and brunches. Just one look at the lamination and you'll know these guys are the real deal!

Staff is super friendly, they have freshly squeezed orange juice and we love getting the rosemary chicken sandwich or carrot cake.

My FAVORITE place to go for breakfast!! The brekafast sandwich on a crossint is my absolute favorite!! Never a time where I will go there without getting one. The house made sauce in it is SO delicious. There are no words. MUST TRY. Everything is delicious, you can't go wrong with anything they have. Love the bakery and love the friendly staff.

The Scones are great and the sandwiches are very tasty with the fresh baked bread. They also serve good quality coffee for an affordable price. The staff is always friendly and make you feel welcome.

I found Belle's as I was searching for some sweet treats for a fair price. When I walked in and started ordering the service was very kind and welcoming. I ordered a hot chocolate, chocolate latte, classic sandwich, an eclair, and a chocolate muffin and I thought it was going to be expensive but the price was very nice. I sat inside and looked at the beautifully decorated establishment as I waited for my food. I was pleasantly surprised when my food was brought to me, not necessary but something very courteous. After reciev the food the portions were very good and the taste of everything was amazing. I would come here again and bring my family and friends along with me!

Incredible family-run cafe with a cozy atmosphere. Dined with friends who enjoyed everything from the French pastry to sandwiches, as well as coffee drinks and juices. The chocolate chip scone was light, fluffy, and baked to perfection. Perfect ratio of chocolate to scone. They also make a fantastic chai latte. Great breakfast and lunch menu. Fantastic service. I highly recommend trying this spot for the wonderful hospitality and local dining experience.

Stopped in for some coffee and food for lunch. We got the breakfast sandwich and turkey club along with iced white mochas. Absolutely tasty and we will be returning for more! The staff were also very very nice!

So many coffee shops and cafes and bakeries on Ventura Blvd. While driving home from a work meeting I spotted this cafe and stopped by to check it out. Great customer service from the moment I walked in. They have sandwiches, salads, Omelets, croissant, pastries, cupcakes, scones and variety of coffee drinks. I got an iced coffee which tastes ok and a scone that was too dry for my taste. The muffins looked good so next time I'll try that if I find myself here again. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Parking in front. Overall a nice place to have breakfast or lunch.

Not exactly a restaurant. More of a store - a bakery. No ambiance. Dark. Drab and very unappealing. Took one look and walked out. The parking is also not good. Idiot get out of the lot especially if someone else pulls in. The entire thing was negative. Noticed a little porch on the side if you want to eat in the parking lot. We made no food purchase so I cannot comment on that.
Belle Bakery Cafe has by far the best sandwiches in L.A. The rosemary chicken sandwich and the turkey club sandwich have amazing layers of flavor from good, quality ingredients. The bread texture is a perfect blend of toasty and chewy exterior and soft, fresh-baked interior. The croissants, biscotti and other baked goods are crave-worthy and satisfying. The baker clearly puts heart and soul into each sweet. The owner cares about food - both taste and presentation. This is a favorite place to eat!

We have a new contender in the Croissant Wars currently raging in the east Valley between Studio City's "Sweet Lily" (solid croissant in a very cute French cafe setting) and Toluca Lake's "Lou, The French on the Block" (tiny closet of a space that always has an epic line, though well-deserved) -- welcome Belle Bakery in Studio City! Located on Ventura between Laurel and Coldwater, this charming little outpost feels like an old-school family-owned bakery/deli. I'm going to focus strictly on the croissant because a) it's the best way to judge a bakery (if you can nail a croissant, the rest is easy) and b) it's all I've eaten there. And what a croissant to focus on! It's so divinely buttery that it's forever altered my perception of this delicate pastry. But let's judge this croissant-book by it's croissant-cover: the crispy exterior is the perfect crunch and flake you expect from the highest quality of croissants. Once you break through the crunchy outer shell, you are rewarded with an intoxicating buttery aroma and incredibly soft, butter-infused interior that's downright buttery. Err, heavenly. (Am I overusing 'butter'? Trick question! There's no such thing as overusing butter! Whether in a croissant, a cookie, or the bedroom...) This croissant is a perfect marriage of butter, warmth, and subtle sweetness... and if you're feeling freaky, get the chocolate croissant to throw some dark chocolate into the buttery boudoir and spice that marriage up with a threesome! I've lost track of this metaphor... where was I? Look, it's damn good, the staff is as warm as the croissants, and they'll butter you up with compliments. It's what they do - they butter! So grab a croissant, a coffee, bring a book, sit out on their adorable deck and enjoy the parade of fancy cars passing by on their way to buy overpriced goods at the Erewhon across the street. Suckers gonna suck, but butter's always gonna butt.

First time visit, I had a capuchino & a sausage croissant which was amazing, great fresh croissant with great bold flavor coffee, super nice coffee spot that I will keep coming back too!

This place is one of the most welcoming bakeries, sandwich , croissants, danishes and dessert places to go in Studio City and the surrounding area. Their baguettes regular and sourdough are phenomenal but be aware they make them only once a day in the morning after the rush and before lunch, They come out of the oven between 11-12 so order in advance or you will not get one. Their rolls are delicious but the baguettes are the best. Of course you can special order the day before if you are a planner and they will be grateful because they will not be disappointing you.

Delicious Vegetable Omelette! Yummy croissant and my husband and son are loving the Cinnamon Twist w/Pecan. Service and Ambiance are nice and very easy to get a good bite to eat.
