Went here to celebrate my birthday with friends and it was a very cozy cafe! Lots of food options and cake options there too. It’s a cute and cozy cafe!

Cold pastries straight out of the fridge, they all taste the same with the fridge taste. Too much cream in cakes, almost bo dough. The stuff is friendly though, but I’m never coming back

I think the place is more for a cute experience, rather than great pastries. Read reviews of how good their croissants were, which was my deciding factor. Plus their treats looked amazing! I ordered the napoleon, a shortbread cookie, a chocolate mousse cake, and a blueberry cheese danish. I also ordered the ham and cheese croissant with a hot tea. They messed up my order so I never got to try the croissants. I ended trying the baguettes sandwich, which was good, but not crazy for hard bread on a sandwich. Also it’s not a hot sandwich. The mustard is what made it. All my desserts were meh. I was super disappointed. The mouse was grainy. The danish was not soft or fluffy, and not enough cheese to bread ratio. I didn’t know a napoleon was a cream brûlée cake. Shortbread cookie had this hard jam in it and the cookie wasn’t worth the price. I spent almost $30 in an uber to get there (I didn’t mind because I was really excited), then spent close to $50 there. I waited all day to try the desserts and almost cried when I realized I spent all my splurge money on something that was mid.. Staff was extremely friendly and kind. The place was clean and had a really cute environment. Everything LOOKED amazing, but taste was lacking

Belle Pastry has the charm of a neighborhood pâtisserie, but the execution leaves much to be desired. On paper, it promises the kind of French café experience that should draw you in with buttery croissants, flaky layers, and warm, comforting aromas. Unfortunately, what actually arrives at the table tells a different story.
The pastries, including croissant sandwiches and quiche, come fridge-cold — a detail that instantly undercuts the very essence of what makes these items special. A croissant, in particular, begs to be enjoyed warm, its exterior crisp and its interior tender. Instead, what you’re handed feels lifeless, as though it has been sitting in storage rather than freshly prepared.
Flavor-wise, there’s little that redeems the presentation. Nothing is offensive, but nothing stands out either; each bite is more perfunctory than pleasurable. In a city where bakeries and cafés compete to elevate classics, Belle Pastry offers little incentive to return.
For those seeking genuine French-style indulgence, this is, unfortunately, a hard pass. Bellevue diners deserve better than pastries that taste more like convenience than craft.

Great collection of pastries. Fantastic place. A little pricey but worth the price. Highly recommended.
Saw a TikTok about Napoleon cake and this Bakery showed up. I ordered the Napoleon and a Latte, 10/10 will be coming back!

Bella Pastry. Service is pretty terrible but it is not all their fault. Their low paid staff is busy pumping out orders so they don’t have time to attend to you or figure out Who is Next and what is the correct order. They really leave it. Up to you. To figure out all this because I almost walked out with a large portion of my order that was missing. Not much of a consolation witnesses. I’ll figure it out. When you’re in such a high cost living area, they’re really focus on profits and that’s how things are. But if that’s what you want so that you can go and try to enjoy and have a slice of luxury then that’s all you get.

Their basic pastries (croissants etc.) and drinks (lattes etc.) are reasonably priced for the area and pretty good, but the fancier desserts are now approaching $10.
However, I've mostly had bad service from here to the point that I've often regretted leaving a tip and actively avoid going here. Long wait times (even when you may be 2nd or 3rd in line to order), staff that makes you feel unwelcome, insanely foamed up latte even though you asked for a no-foam latte, etc. I can count in one hand the number of pleasant interactions I've had with the staff over the past several years I've lived in the area.

Absolutely amazing French pastry shop! Everything I tried was fresh, perfectly made, and full of flavor. The croissants were buttery and flaky, the tarts were delicate, and the staff was super friendly. Feels like a little taste of Paris — I’ll definitely be back!
