    Ricotta & Pistachio cake
    John L.

    Small and simple pastry/coffee shop in the pocket downtown of Ridley Park near Taylor Hospital. I found metered street parking (can pay by app or with a quarter/s each = 20mins). The inside is small, but inviting with some tables for chatting, using a device on their free wifi, sitting up along the window for people watching, etc. The small fireplace along the wall gave a nice visual touch along with the plants. I tried their Americano coffee twice and find that it tastes like regular boring Dunkin coffee. I also had an espresso and a cortado. Both of those espresso based drinks had much better flavor than the Americano and hit the spot. Their desserts/pastries are nicely displayed and there is quite a variety - Danish, cannoli, tarts, at times about a dozen different cakes by the slice, cream puffs, croissants, baklava, eclairs, pavlova, macaroons, cupcakes, muffins, cookies, turnovers, bear claws and scones. (apologies if I missed any) I enjoyed a slice of ricotta/pistachio cake with my cortado and Americano on my first visit. They also offer breakfast sandwiches served on croissant or ciabatta until noon and some sandwiches. The staff was nice, very attentive and fast, but a bit robotic and short. They gave recommendations and eventually cracked a smile. I enjoyed my visits to Ardour and would repeat if in the area. It's a good addition to the area. Thanks guys!

    Iced Chai*

    I ordered an ice chai yesterday and had to go outside to get something. Came back and paid for my coffee only to take 2 sips and 3/4ths of my drink was gone! The drink was entirely of ice! Was so disappointed as I basically paid $5 for 4 sips of drink. I was waited on by two young girls, they seemed to be annoyed that I had to step out for a moment and made my drink while I was gone.

    Fruit and cream pastry & strawberry and cream croissant
    Alessandra C.

    Consistently delicious pastries, food and coffee. MUST TRY the croissant/pastries with fruit cream is absolutely delicious - very light but super flavorful not heavy at all. Ambiance is very modern and clean. Nice spot for taking cute pictures of your coffee or catching up on some work! Tables and barstool seating available overlooking the little town of Ridley Park. Meter parking rightoutside.

    Such a cute & cozy place! Brought the hubby and toddler this morning. Toddler had the apple muffin. Hubby and I split several things in order to sample. Spinach&feta bistro Leek&parm bistro Caprese sammy on croissant Bfast sammy on croissant Americano Rasp white chocolate mocha Everything was delish and loved the seasonal offerings

    Chocolate Mousse--gluten free
    Mariann W.

    Lovely pick me up spot for espresso based coffees and pastries--nice alternative to that larger chain coffee shop. Excellent service and a nice selection of European style pastries--took away a star since the only gluten free option was the chocolate mousse (which was very rich and chocolatey). They also have breakfast sandwiches and tea based drinks as well. I'll be back to try some other offerings. Good to know: They have a few tables for two inside to sit at and an outside table as well.

    almond croissant
    Taylor Y.

    A cute little coffee & pastry shop just around the corner from the hospital. I stopped by before work to grab an almond croissant, which was flakey, not too sweet, and very tasty. While I didn't purchase any drinks this time, they have a solid menu with both your regular coffee drinks and some creative options too. Their selection of pastries is incredible -- I'll have to come back another time to try their tiramisu croissant or their peach turnover. They also have a selection of cakes and fruit tarts for celebrations. There are a few small tables and there was soft jazz playing in the background. There is also wifi available for guests. I highly recommend stopping by for a quick pastry stop, a study session, or for a meet-up with a friend!

    Cannoli with sprinkles, which I thought were chocolate chips. I've ever seen a cannoli with sprinkles.
    Mandy G.

    My sister-in-law has been telling me about this bakery so yesterday I decided to check it out. I was surprised at how tiny it was, it's just not what I think of when I think of a "bakery." Their selection is quite small and I would describe this more as a cafe than a bakery. At any rate, I snagged three things: 1. A chocolate chip cannoli 2. A peanut butter chocolate mousse cup 3. A slice of opera cake When I got home and closely examined the cannoli I was shocked to find CHOCOLATE SPRINKLES on both ends. SPRINKLES??? ON A CANNOLI?? I was instantly infuriated. But then I ate it and realized that there were indeed real chocolate chips on the inside with the mascarpone filling, so I was able to forgive the sprinkle transgression. It tasted fine, but you can tell that they do not fill their cannolis as they are ordered since the shell was a bit soft. You can easily up your cannoli game by filling the shells as customers order them. Onto the opera cake: it was good! I don't have anything other to say than that. It was good. The peanut butter chocolate mousse thing was definitely the best thing I had. It was delicious, top to bottom. I have zero criticisms of it whatsoever and will likely see it in my dreams at night. I was torn between a 3 and 4-star rating for Ardour. I think it's a little misleading to call themselves a bakery when they're sooooo tiny, and their offerings are available at other, bigger bakeries nearby (Cocco's Gelateria, Traub's Bakery, Maria's Prime Time, etc.). If Yelp did half-stars, they'd definitely earn a solid 3.5 from me. I think Ardour is best for those looking for a coffee and a pastry and not for those looking for a bigger selection of baked goods. It's in a cute little part of town and would be nice to grab a treat and take a walk to see what else the shops nearby have to offer.

    The bakery has delicious pastries and is a welcoming place. The coffee drinks are fairly good, but as good as the bakery items.
