The mascarpone cream was good with croissant BUT waaaay overpriced. 10 dollars for pastry size of a regular small lemon. The croissant was decent it’s just a croissant though: The creams are decent much better thank cafe sorento BUT At 10 dollars it’s a complete rip off worth 5 dollars AT most and even 5 would be premium for THAT small of a size. 10 dollars is just complete greed. Melted Chocolate makes one’s 3 times as big for a fraction of price.

Authentic pastries with a flair of flavor from other countries!

Your hours have changed so much that after 20 attempts to visit have resulted in zero positive outcomes. I have decided after today's closed doors, that I will no longer attempt the the drive downtown. Just not worth the effort anymore. Too bad. Was a good thing until you kept changing the hours, stopped making three of my favorites and hiked your prices up.

Quality ingredients with skilled bakers results in exquisite pastries. Nothing is too sweet. The flavors are clean and layered. In the pain suisse, you taste the crisp pastry, then the slightly sweetened vanilla pastry cream and finally the dark chocolate chips. Perfection. Prices reflect the quality.

Expensive but top notch.

I only come to Boise once a year, but this place is really THE best French bakery (or patisserie) I have ever been to- I’ve been in Paris and tried nothing close to this! The pastries are buttery and flaky, and the savory options like the brioche lorraine are just as good. Service is excellent, the staff and the owner were friendly.
Make sure you come early, otherwise you’ll be stuck in a line, or worse, everything will sell out.
Yep, that’s how delicious this place is.

Great pastry 🥐 spot. It’s beautiful and delicious 👍 My sister was in town and I wanted to do something a little different, so we picked this spot -it was the perfect way to start the weekend.
Thought and care in every bite. Definitely a great use of calories and time to stop by.

When we’re in Boise, we always make a stop at Janjou Pâtisserie. The pastry selection is intentionally curated, not overwhelming, just a thoughtful lineup of beautifully crafted options. We make it a point to try something new each time, and every visit delivers. The flavors are layered, balanced, and memorable.
There’s usually a bit of a wait, but it’s by design. They only allow six customers inside at a time to make sure everyone gets the same relaxed, unhurried experience. It doesn’t feel rushed or chaotic, which is rare.
On our last visit, the pastry chef and owner came outside, introduced herself, thanked everyone for waiting, and explained why they keep it to six guests at a time. It felt genuine and intentional. The care they put into both the pastries and the customer experience makes the wait completely worth it.
If you appreciate quality over quantity, this place is a must-stop in Boise.

I drove pretty far to try this and guess what.... Says your open but your not. It would be really nice if you could at least show that your closed when you're closed. It shows your open. Pretty misleading. Thanks for that.

This place is great but the hours are horrid. I've made the hour trip a handful of times only for it to be closed despite saying open on Google.
