Be warned it gets BUSYYY on the weekends and it’s a cute cozy place so it quickly becomes standing room only with an handful of tables. Thankfully when we got in line it wasn’t too bad, but by the time we left after having coffees , a quiche and pastries it was packed!
But for good reason! The food is absolutely delicious, you can tell there’s some real talent there in the pastries and the coffee was pretty tasty too!

Really lovely staff, great coffee, and one of the best cozy cafes in the Eau Claire area. Oh and the *best* baked goods within a 60 mile radius 😍

WOW. I've been hunting for a great bakery around Eau Claire and was blown away by The Nostalgic Bean today! The cinnamon braid might be one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life: crusty but soft, sweet but not excessive. I doubt I'll ever eat another ham & bechamel croissant without comparing it to this one. Partner said the crust on the black bean, corn and jalapeno quiche was perfect. I thought I was going overboard when I brought home a white chocolate coconut caramel cream tart and a almond fruit tart for dessert tonight, but they were soooo worth it! This place is bringing their A game, I would give them 10/10 stars if I could!
