    Box of desserts & pastries
    Heather B.

    Prinsesstårta!! Okay so I LOVE princess cake but it truly is a long process to make. Many bakeries and patisseries don't have then for whatever reason, but Alpine Pastry & Cakes does! I was overjoyed that they had it in a small format with the dessert log slice format so I don't have to buy a whole cake. It was lovely!! I will be back to have more princess cake. We also tried other things and they were good too. We liked how the chocolate cake seemed like it has a fresh Dutch cocoa taste. Service was good, there is a one-way dedicated parking lot, and the place is pretty busy (I'm guessing because people like it a lot) but the line moves swiftly. Altogether a great find for bakeries and sweets.

    Bomb. Pastries were fresh tasty ill definitely come back for more. I also like that they had gluten intolerant pastries from my wife.

    Yesterday , we picked a cake from their display called St. Honore to bring to a party the next day and selected a slice of almond cake to split with husband. They have a wonderful display of various cakes, cookies, pastries, etc to choose from. The building is welcoming and it gets busy but line moves fast. The workers are so sweet and kind. The place is welcoming too. Hubby loved both items too. We definitely will be coming back to try more of their stuff and will happily bring their products to any events in the future.

    I'd like to consider myself a croissant connoisseur. They are by far one of my favorite pastries and I'm constantly searching for the next best one. To date, I haven't found one that is more buttery and crispy than the ones served at Alpine. The ends have the most perfect crunch, and the center is so layered and fluffy. I am determined to try every pastry they have to offer. I also love their peach cobbler (?) (top left) and the raspberry crumble (?) (pictured next to the peach cobbler). The bottom right are chocolate walnut cookies which are incredible with a cup of black coffee. I also heard they have pretzels on Friday, which excites me so much. I can't wait to try them!

    Late review, but I went here the day before thanksgiving. Luckily it wasn't that busy. I was planning on ordering pumpkin and apple pie. However when I got to the counter, someone ordered the last pumpkin pie so I just settle for apple pie. It's a small bakery and it looks like people usually order and get it to go. The apple pie was delicious! Once I opened the box, the first thing you smell is the cinnamon. The pie itself wasn't overly sweet, which I loved. I also got an eclair and cream of cone, delicious! Again not overly sweet.

    It was so hard not to order all the pastries! Everything looked amazing but somehow we limited ourselves to just 2. I forgot the names but they were both so delicious. As you can tell I couldn't stop ourselves from having a bite before taking a pic. I'm definitely stopping by again to try out more.

    After being a loyal customer of this pastry shop for quite some time, I have to admit that my experience has been hit or miss. Out of all the cakes I've tried, I only genuinely enjoy two -- the Princess Cake and the Coffee Crunch Cake. Unfortunately, the others I've bought and tried, such as the Guava Cake, Velvet Cake, and Viennese Cake, were big disappointments for me. Most recently, I decided to try their Strawberry Delight Cake -- a white chiffon cake with strawberry preserves, strawberry cream, and cake crumbs on the side. I had high hopes for this one since the presentation looked adorable and I love anything strawberry. However, the biggest letdown was the cake itself: the chiffon was bone dry, and the strawberry preserves were overly thick and gelatinous. The crumbs on the side also didn't help -- their texture reminded me of desiccated coconut, which I didn't enjoy. Overall, I was really disappointed with this cake. While I still appreciate a couple of their offerings, like the Princess and Coffee Crunch cakes, most of their other varieties have hugely missed the mark for me. I truly think the Strawberry Delight Cake could have been much better if the cake hadn't been so dry. Because of the inconsistency in the quality of their cakes, I can't give this place more than two stars.

    Pretty but pricey

    It is very nice to have family owned bakeries versus the chain stores. There are many options for cookies, cakes and pastries as well as coffee drinks. Today, I was craving a butter horn similar to the old Neldams in Oakland Ah, it was not to be because it's not an item that they make. Instead, I went with the bear claw and it wasn't bad. Very flakey and almond tasting due in large part to the almond filling which is generous. For me, it was a bit dry even after I zapped it for 10 seconds in the microwave. Today, they had quite a few cakes in the display case. The prices of cakes has just blown me away and it's not just here. Plenty of parking and tables to enjoy your treats. Give them a try!

    This seems like an abundant bakery with sweets, cakes and cookies beaming all around the shop in coolers. The array of baked goods causes you do double takes or even triple takes of the array of desserts. I'm never sure what to pick. And secretly I'd pick it all if I could. The vibe here is cheerful and bright. The shop is clean and up to date. Alpine has a large space for a bakery and chairs and seats for inside dining. I would have stayed at Alpine today, but took my order to go this afternoon. I must say I was disappointed when I took a bite into my Red Velvet Cupcake. The frosting wasn't tangy, and the cupcake didn't seem very sweet. My daughter cookie on the other hand seemed to taste much better because she finished off in a flash. The service was excellent. I was greeted less than a minute upon arrival. The staff was patient with my daughter when clarifying her order. The price was reasonable. Two large decorated cookies and a cupcake for $16. I've been here before and my dessert experiences here have bee mixed but mostly positive ones.

    I see this bakery whenever I am in Concord, Ca but never stop by. Finally, my husband and I went in and good thing we did! This place has an old fashion feeling like a bakery back in my younger days. It is clean and staff are attentive! They have a big pastries selection! And they all look amazing! They also have cookies, cakes and specialty coffee. We were looking for an anniversary cake and found one of our favorite coffee crunch cake. The cake, surprisingly, is light and not too sweet. We've had them in other bakeries but the coffee crunch on top is too sticky and sticks to our teeth but this one doesn't. We will definitely be back to try their pastries!

    We were in concord and decided to look for a bakery to buy an anniversary cake. We found this place on Yelp and decided to try it. We found this place to be huge. They have a lot of things to offer from cakes. Muffins, cookies, pastries, pies, and donuts. Their selection of cakes is so extensive that it took us a while to pick one. We finally decided to get the coffee crunch cake. It's made of white chiffon cake, filled & iced with Coffee whipped cream, and covered with coffee crunch. This cake is so soft and delicious. Every bite you take will melt in your mouth. The coffee crunch is not hard and it will also melt inside your mouth. This cake is just so awesome and delicious. If this cake is a measure of how good the rest of their product are, then I will make it a point to come here and try their other items.

    We love visiting independent bakeries. They have their own personalities when it comes to the products that they produce to sell. The business is one long collection of counters filled with cakes, cupcakes, individual cakes and pastries, a register and then a hook to the right where there was another display case of cookies, macarons and meringues on display. I'm sure that I forgot some items but that just means that I'll have to return soon. We managed to narrow our choices down to three items. We got: Bavarian Cream Puff Chocolate Taco Apple Strudel with Whipped Cream We ate way too much food throughout the day. We had the Bavarian and Streusel for dessert, and the poor Taco waits for us in the refrigerator. The two that we ate were even more delicious and luscious than we had expected. Service was excellent. The sales floor was clean and well lit. There were some tables on the side. ****Note I took the Chocolate Taco out of the refrigerator and gave it a hour to come closer to room temperature. Cut it in half and shared. OMG! It was so rich and decadent! Even eating just 1/2 of it seemed like an overload of chocolate flavor. Chocolate Cake wrapped around Chocolate Mousse with a dab of Raspberry and then the entire thing folded like a taco and dipped in chocolate with chocolate sprinkles. While the cost isn't inexpensive ($9.50), sharing it cuts the cost in 1/2. Just be sure to have a large glass of ice-cold milk or a cup of hot coffee at hand!

    They are across from park and shop. Small parking lot but accessible to get in and out. I wanted to buy some cupcakes for a family get together and celebrate a few of the dad's birthdays. I bought 18 cupcakes. Carrot cake, red velvet, mocha and vanilla. Carrot cake and mocha were the favorites. I will be back to try some other items.

Had to finally commit, since there isn't one close to where I live. All the locations are in the East Bay. Thankfully, I made it. I chose two selections. The banana pudding and the chocolate raspberry. I was surprised of the price points. Pretty affordable, more than other bakeries I can think of. The cookies are not little. They smelled wonderful. They taste even better. The customer service was terrific. Friendly and efficient staff members. I enjoyed both flavors and appreciated the high-quality ingredient list is clearly used in the production. I noticed that the cookies are not as sweet as they appear to be. I detected more salt, than sugar in the finish/aftertaste. I look forward to coming back again to sample more flavors. There was a flyer on the front door promoting the upcoming grand opening of the latest new location, in Hayward.

I came earlier today and bought 3 cookies: Classic brown butter pecan, banana pudding, and cookies and cream. All three were amazing! They each had a crunch, crispy outer layer with a moist inside. They're buttery and have this pan crust taste to them which stick out from the rest. There were so many other flavors I wanted to try but I didn't want to go overboard lol. Cookies were going for about $3.50-$3.75 each which is regular for a boutique cookie. My ultimate favorites so far is the brown butter pecan and banana pudding. These stick out from every cookie I've had over the years. They're so delicious and tasty that I want a whole box. I really wish they had a Butter Pecan cookie shop where I'm from in the South Bay. The East Bay is lucky to have these cookies! To the owners or whoever is going to franchise this place, please open up in Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, Cupertino, or Mountain View! Trust me, people will go crazy for these. I'm definitely coming back!

    I'm so happy to see an Asian bakery in downtown Pleasant Hill, especially a Korean bakery. And…read moreyesss, we got Paris Baguette! First off, don't let the name fool you because despite its name it's actually a Korean bakery, not a French bakery. They do have a lot of French inspired pastries though, like croissants. I keep seeing people on TikTok eating those cylinder shaped Croissants filled with creamy custard or chocolate cream, so naturally I had to try one when I saw them at the store. I also knew I had to try the Salted Bread since Japanese style salted bread has been super viral all over Asia lately. We ended up getting both, and honestly they were pretty good. Let me start with the Salted Bread, the inside had that signature hollow interior with a slightly crusty exterior, so it felt pretty legit. The salty crust paired really nicely with the buttery flavor of the bread. It was good, but I don't get the hype around it. I know some people are completely obsessed with salted bread, but to me it's basically just really good bread tasting like salted butter. I like it, but it's just not enough to make me obsessed with it. Then we tried the cylinder shaped croissant that was half dipped in chocolate, and that was pretty good too. Obviously room temperature croissants just don't hit the same as warm freshly baked ones, but for room temperature ones, these were pretty solid. I also really liked the interior of the shop. Everything looked super clean, modern, and chic. All the baked goods were displayed really beautifully too. I'd definitely come back again the next time I'm in the vicinity, and next time I'll try some of their other stuff too.

If you know, you know. The pastries here are absolutely worth the detour--and honestly, wherever I see a Paris Baguette, I do pull over. That includes locations I've visited in Northern California, North Brunswick, New Jersey, Atlanta, Georgia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and even the one here in Charlotte down in Pineville. It's a bit of a drive for me, but when I'm in that area, I always make a point to stop in and pick up a couple of their delicious croissant-donut pastries and marzipan or almond croissants. That's the beauty of this bakery--it's a chain, yes, but the consistency is what keeps me coming back. I have yet to be disappointed. Of course, I had to stop at this Hilton Head location--and I didn't come empty-handed. Food connects people, and bringing pastries to your host is always a winning move. I picked up three different varieties of their famous croissant-donut style pastries (similar to the well-known cronut): * Chocolate * Tiramisu * Mango And I added two large almond croissants that were beautifully filled, flaky, and indulgent. Everything looked fresh, full, and irresistible. The setup inside is easy and efficient. It's self-serve: you grab a tray, line it with parchment, use the tongs, and select whatever catches your eye--from baguettes to cakes to coffee drinks. Checkout was quick, Apple Pay was accepted, and the whole experience felt smooth and well organized. The space was clean, friendly, and inviting, with plenty of outdoor seating. Bottom line: Whenever you see a Paris Baguette on your radar, pull over. It's dependable, delicious, and perfect for picking up pastries to share--or to treat yourself. For me, it's one of those rare places that delivers the same quality every single time, no matter the city--and that kind of consistency is something I truly appreciate as a traveler and lifelong foodie.
