What the heck happened. One of my favorite bakeries has gone average.
I just left Buchhon bakery We ordered the macaroons and various other pastries. The chocolate, it does not taste like real chocolate anymore. The macaroons and pastries were heavy and lacked flavor. Sorry, quail and the condor in Healdsburg is now my number #1. Iam very 😞

The pastries are incredible. Can’t find anything matching this quality in Northern California. But what strikes me perhaps even more is that the service is so friendly despite all their foot traffic. There is always a line and these folks are always pleasant and a smiles.
Couldn’t be better. A well-earned 5 stars.

There was a bit of a line to get into the bakery, but it was definitely worth the wait. They have all kinds of pastries to choose from, plus coffee. Everything we tried was super yummy! 😋

Had a pistachio macaron that was stale. The lady justified that it's meant to like a biscuit. Regardless she gave a me a new one which was much better with a chewy texture. So a little bit unprofessional from their end as staff aren't sure what a macaron texture should be like.

Loved every bite—the almond croissant was perfectly flaky, the bouchon deeply chocolaty, and the chocolate cherry scones wonderfully gooey - worth queuing!

Bouchon Bakery serves the best croissants I’ve ever had in my life. This place alone is worth a trip to Napa Valley. The almond croissant and pain au chocolat were both incredibly crisp, deeply buttery, and absolutely unforgettable. We also tried the ham and cheese baguette sandwich—nutty, crunchy, and so delicious that I didn’t want each bite to end.
The coffee was fragrant and smooth, perfect for a morning start.
It’s clearly a famous spot and usually has a long line, but we got lucky and arrived around 9 AM on a Saturday with no wait. The shop is quite small with no indoor seating, but there are a few heated outdoor tables available.

Pain au Chocolate is nah. The baguette is realllly good, worth the line
Food seemed good looking but tasted mediocre compared to the price. Hot chocolate was watered down syrup. Celebrating meritocracy and saying it’s fancy.

Bakery is located right off the main road and next to the Bistro. The building itself is very small and can be very claustrophobic during busy hours. The staff were very nice and helpful. The selection of baked goods were decent. They also serve hot/cold drinks. Their espresso and lattes are my favorite. A great place to get fresh baked sweets and bread.

This was honestly very disappointing :(
The pastries were genuinely meh. I spent a lot for what was pretty mediocre. The salted caramel coffee wasn’t good imo.
The restaurant, Bouchon Bistro, on the other hand, was very good.

It was beautiful and the French music and the smell of fresh dough was in the air as I walked in an ordered a few minutes after they opened. Everything was so good! I drove by a few hours later and the line was around the building. A must do while in the area!
