Fantastic pastries, little pricey but the quality is good. Not a fan of this place though since they have a sneaky 18% service charge added to all orders that isn't disclosed very clearly and you can't see the screen they ring up to see the charges. Raise your prices if you are not profitable but screw off with a 18% up charge.

Permanently closed - sign says "as of December" but the inside is clearly torn out already for the move to Issaquah (and they were supposed to open at 8 AM, but it is already 10 o'clock in the morning on a weekday). I have been here before, and the pastries are five stars, but I am very disappointed that they did not update their hours here or on Google Maps .

I stopped by here around 10am on Friday and a lot of pastries were already sold out (or they were working on a new batch, not sure). I got 3 pastries for around $18, which was slightly pricey since the pastries were a bit small, but it's still within reason. The cream puff was so good: crispy exterior, creamy interior with milky cream. But my favorite was definitely the passion fruit pound cake with lychee matcha glaze. The pound cake was cakey and paired amazingly with the fruity glaze. I've never had a lychee glaze before so I really liked this cake. I also got the lemon pistachio gateau basque which was flaky, lemony, and had a hint of pistachio, but was a bit flavorless and hard to finish for me. All in all, I like the variety of pastries they had and would definitely come back to try more!

Normally I can handle gruff and brisk. But honestly, as the only customer in the store, why act rude and impatient with my questions and order? Pastries might be good, but regret giving them my money for such a horrible experience.
The quality has really plummeted! It is ridiculous that they do not have boxes when buying bunch of pastries. They often are not open during posted the hours. This is really poor customer service and not professional.I am super disappointed that they selling over cooked croissant. That was their best items in the years past. Sadly, some of the pastries were dry. Severely disappointed. I keep trying to give them another chance to see if things get better, but I think this is the final time I go.

A friend, who lives in the area, recommended this place. I think I expecting it to have a place to sit and enjoy your pastries. But it's mostly a counter for takeout. We ended up going back to the car to enjoy our coffee and pastries. It was early enough that we found street parking just down the street. I got the passion fruit cake. It's like a round pound cake with a lychee matcha glaze. I love all those three flavors, but I would say the matcha was the strongest. I tried having a bite of the cake without any glaze and I didn't really taste any passion fruit at all. It was slightly disappointing. I also wanted to try their kougin aman but they were out. It was only about 10:15 in the morning also. My hubby had a slice of their quiches. It was on a hot plate so it was warm when we got it. I had a bite and it was pretty good. We also got some coffees too. I wanted to really like this place bc French pasties, duh but what we had was just alright. I'll have to reserve final judgement for after I try a few more things. It would've been nice to have some tables, maybe outside to enjoy the goodies too.

Very small hole in the wall cover bakery there selection is small but they put a lot of passion into there products you get high quality over a quantity of items it's a take out only bakery and I went specifically for the conelés which were perfect had a nice burnished caramelized crust that had a nice chew with an amazing fluffy egg sponge center nice light vanilla note very good and they use the copper molds for them so they put a lot of detail and effort to make sure there authentic and perfect

The selection is a bit limited but the baked goods are tasty. Food is worth a 4 star review but giving 2 because of the hidden fees. While I can appreciate that they claim they want to pay a fair and reasonable wage, that should be reflected in menu prices not fees posted on a hidden sign that you don’t see until you pay. Would have been 2 stars but I typically give 18-20% tip so this was probably cheaper than I expected. Still hidden fees are not a business practice I can appreciate.

Truly their pastries are so good, I've been back a few times but the customer service has made me want to cry, so unfriendly. How can a pastry that tastes so good come with such a sour mood? Is it worth feeling terrible to get something so tasty? Up to you, I think today was my last time.Also no prices listed, who knows how much I spent to get treated sub-human for a croissant.
closed.No bakery anymore.
