This must be what Beard Papa is trying to do with their cream puffs. If you think a great cream puff should be large, spongy, and generous on the custard, come here. Skip the chocolate muffins which are dry, dry, tasteless, and dry. read more

everything feels so freshly baked and the environment is great. Not the best barkery I have ever been to, but it's high up on the list. Will definitely come back if I come to this neighboor again. read more

3.3/5 i love asian bakeries it's not necessarily a stand-apart from other asian bakeries, but i love them so. after a nice sushi dinner, it's nice to pick up a pastry on your way out of the mall, or stash a few for later when you get the munchies! read more

Cakes are light, creamy, and delicious. Coffee is just as good.

I loved this place. The ladies in the store were so nice and informative. They have a eclectic collection of pastries. I opted for an almond croissant and it was amazing accompanied with a smooth soy latte. The place is rather large so there was plenty of seating. I would definitely go back. read more

Stopped here recently and had the best almond croissant ever! This little spot was open before a lot of the other shops in the mall, so we grabbed a table and had a snack. A very pleasant place with friendly staff and a beautiful selection of baked goods. read more

Ever since this bakery opened up in Jtown, I've been in love. Their pastries are addicting, especially their cream puffs and chocolate eclairs! Carb heaven!!!!!! read more

mmm carbs... i love carbs and bakeries... this andersen bakery has some good pastries and breads and desserts read more

They have different items than ACME or other breadshops. Andersen does loafs, Japanese style breads, and delicious pastries. Their large cheese pastry is humongous and really cheese-y. read more

Quality and selection of baked goods was great here my only gripe is that they're not open early enough for an early riser like me. Super friendly service as well. read more

The pastries are decent and decently priced. Not the best I've ever had, but the chocolate croissant was still pretty darn good.

oishii!!! the bread is fresh and damn soft. i believe this place is way better then sogo and sheng kee. we bought a fresh loaf of bread. they put the whole thin in a machine to cut their perfectly aligned thick slices. the coffee also smelled really good... i haven't tried anything else here. i also did not know that this was an european bakery. i thought this thing was owned by japanese, but then again the name doesn't make sense. be sure to give this place a try if your in japan town. read more

Unless I missed a secret menu that is not on display or on paper at the register, this location doesn't have nearly as extensive a menu as the one on their website. For lunch there are only a handful of sandwiches. I ordered a turkey and avocado. It was fine, but unspectacular. Since there are lots of other lunch options nearby, I probably won't be back. read more

I reserve all my stars for the walnut cream cheese bread. It makes the world go round. Especially when paired with a double iced espresso from Cafe Hana around the corner. Mmmmmmmmmm read more

I went here by myself during a stroll through Japantown and I decided to give it a shot. I had a strawberry croissant which is basically a croissant with a few strawberries nestled in the middle of it, it rocked my socks. This place is fine to go by yourself or with one other person, but don't go with a group since the tables only have two chairs a piece. It isn't expensive at all, so give it a shot. I payed $3 for my strawberry croissant and a carton of milk. Definitely well worth it. read more

Last Sunday was the first time I've been to this bakery. Its too bad we do not have this in San Diego. My girlfriend suggested this place and raved about how I have to try the Jalapeno Cheese Bread. She was totally right! That is the best Jalapeno bread I've ever tasted. We also tried the Cream Cheese Schnitten (austrian sweet bread with creamcheese filling) that was amazing. Before my trip back to San Diego, I made the mistake of only purchasing 2 jalapeno breads and one of every flavor of cheese bread. The pesto ranks 2nd and the international cheese 3rd. The next time I'm up there, I'll make it a point to stock up on the Jalapeno Bread. This place is a must see! read more

I have never set foot in this place but my boyfriend always brings me sandwiches from here and they are sooooo good! the bread is soft and the meat is freash carved. The turkey avocado on sourdough with mayo cant be beat. I think Im drooling on the keyboard as we speak. I wish they would open one near my work! read more

Their pastries are pretty good, but seems a bit too thin! Not that pricey, and feels good to treat myself here when I'm in Japantown.

I come here for the strawberry shortcake and morning pastries when I miss being in Japan. The cakes here aren't too sweet, maybe not sweet enough by American standards but freshly baked and delicious :) read more

I love getting the cheesy bread from here. Jalapeño is a hit and pesto is a hit. All the cakes are delicious so you can't really go wrong with anything. read more

I love this place..my favorite is the fruit flan..but all the pasteries are delicious!!!! It's worth the calorie and carb intake.

just got back from japan town and ordered 3 loafs of the creamy french bread and i am loving it. This is my favorite from there. yummmmmm. Oh yeah and it's only $2.00 per loaf. read more

The Cream french bread is fantastic. I will expect a little bit less red bean in those red bean bread, but it is still great, and every Japanese bakery tasting. read more

They get 5 stars for creamy French.. Hands down and nothing else to be said

Every time I'm in J-Town, I stop by this place for my cream cheese walnut bread. My absolute favorite here. It's hard to resist everything else because they all look so good, but I always end up getting that. read more

Good bread! i usually get the ham and cheese croissant, anpan and the iced tea. bf and i like it here a lot.

Turkey pepper jack sandwich: good. Interesting: halves were wrapped individually.

Below average bakery. I don't understand all the high reviews, have people never been to a good bakery? We tried the almond croissant, an pan red bean bun, pesto bread. The pesto bread was very good, nice chewy crust and soft scrumptious middle with pesto. The almond croissant texture was not the flaky buttery goodness you'd expect, it was like dry stale bread with almond filling. The red bean bun was so sad, an embarrassment for an Asian bakery. Dry with barely had any red bean. Skip this place and go to any of bakeries in Chinatown (Eastern) or on Clement (Red Blossom) for far superior buns. read more

Haven't even try the bread. I have been in line for 15 minutes just waiting. It is 10 am on a Friday morning. They only have 2 people working. read more

Bad day at the office? Have a cream puff! Not an overpowering sweetness but enough to mend any aches your daily stress may cause. Points for accepting credit cards and for the fact that the women on staff are always [sincerely] smiling. read more

The staff here went above and beyond. They were not open yet but noticed we were waiting outside and let us in early since we were only looking to buy pastries. To top it off the raspberry cream cheese pastry was awesome! I will make it a point to go here again when I visit San Francisco.Also the pesto bread we bough to take home was also delicious. read more

Yummy pastries. Value premade sandwiches (4$). I love the white bread. It's so much better buying fresh than from Safeway. Get the thin sliced bread for thick sliced bread is toooooo thick for anything but french toast or fatty croutons. read more

First time tried this bakery store. I had sunrise bun (similar to chinese pineapple bun), But sunrise bun its really good. Next time, I'll try some pastries. BTW taste better than their next door cupcake, its OVERRATED and pricey. read more

Awesome quiet little bakery that also made a bomb chai latte. Perfect for waking up in Morro Bay

Creamy French, Salt Stick and soup - yum! Chicken salad on raisin was amazingly yummy, their bread is so soft, sweet service.

Andersen's farmers chicken salad sandwich on PDC bread is really yummy. Love their creamy frebch too.

Stopped by for a ham and cheese croissant. Looked delicious. The trainee puts it on a plate that has a good size piece of wilted lettuce stick to it. Obviously it's a dirty plate. When I pointed it out to him, he pulled it off with the same tongs he's using to grab the pastries. And then puts my croissant back on the plate!!!! I have to tell him it's unsanitary and to change out the plate, which he does. The tongs get reused. Good food. Questionable sanitary techniques at the front counter. read more

A pretty standard bakery. Came here while waiting to do "escape the room"across the street. The apple muffin was the right level of sweet, I think muffins are too often way too sweet. The apple chunks were tasty, and for two bucks I can't complain. The creme brulee was also good, a bit more expensive (3 bucks). The top layer of melted sugar was incredibly sweet, a little too much, but the custard underneath is on point. It balances the sweetness of the top layer, so as you take a bite the flavors change as you chew them. On the whole, both things were good but were nothing spectacular. read more

Croissants weren't buttery enough. Eclair tasted bland. French cream bread was tasty and service was good.

Food is good, though not spectacular. People are usually pretty friendly. Service is exceptionally fast, and not just by Bay Area standards. I was told this was a Japanese chain - in which case I'd be inclined to chalk up the fast service to that. They don't charge sales tax on to-go orders, as well they shouldn't. Not everyone seems to know to-go food in California isn't taxed, because most restaurants charge it anyway. I often wonder what these restaurants do with the tax they shouldn't be collecting in the first place... The cynic in me says they just pocket it themselves as extra profit margin, but I guess that's harder to do on card transactions. I digress. I wish they had wifi. read more
