Fatine (proprietor) opened this bake shop years ago after finishing her undergrad and masters degree programs, when she realized baking was her passion in life. Her great grandmother Bibi influenced her with delicious treats as a young girl, and eventually with handed down recipes. Fatine humbly informed me "Bibi would be happy to know this bakery has her name". My wife and I stopped here on a weekend and enjoyed a few treats and iced coffees. Fatine told me the coffee is roasted by a close friend of hers, who comes from Florida to roast. She feels that like most everything at Bibi, this Florida connection is serendipitous. She believes that life, like baking itself, tends to just happen the way it's meant to, if you follow your passions. We plan to come back many times, there are so many tasty things we didn't get to try! Thank you Fatine ! read more

Bibi Cafe and Bakery - Iced coffee, raspberry bar, Nutella rugelach, blue dog art in napkin holder - Bakeries Near Me - Westwood, Massachusetts

I spotted this cute little cafe while I was running errands and decided to stop by. Bibi cafe is a tiny little cafe with cute decor, pastries, and coffee. I wish I could give them a better review because the service was good and the cafe itself is adorable, but I was not a fan of the coffee I had. I had a cinnamon latte that was extremely grainy, burnt, and overall just not a great latte. It was around $9 for the latte with tip and seemed far too expensive for the quality that I received. read more

Always friendly and great customer service. Fresh delicious goodies and phenomenal fresh coffee.

The place gas a woman that stomps up and down the stairs every 5-7 minutes. The coffee is made one time in the morning and is lukewarm warm by 11am. The breakfast sandwich had pre par cooked bacon ( 2 half slices) with an egg scrambled with a ton milk amd they forgot the cheese. The scones were not fresh. I had my service dog in there and let them know, then someone comes downstairs and asks me again if he was a service dog and then proceeds to talk about it with another co-worker in front of us. The level of noise from banging upstairs was worse than having construction. I mean LOUD we thought the ceiling was going to cave in. Re- doing hair behind the counter ......constant gossip amoung employees. Just over all not a good experience read more

This place is cute and there is decent indoor and outdoor seating. The bathroom is clean. Those are the pluses. The menu online is not accurate, so keep that in mind. There are items there that they no longer have. My friend and I met there at 12:30 on Sunday and they had no more breakfast items available aside from some pastries. My friend ordered a Tomatina sandwich and I ordered the Bibi salad. I am vegetarian and there are not many options. They have a veggie burger, but when I asked what it's made of, the two people behind the counter did not know. I can't order something that mysterious. The sandwich came out and it was TINY. Like half the size of a sandwich and it was over $13. The salad arrived and it was so blah. A bowl of romaine, tomatoes, cukes, red peppers and carrots with a terrible oily dressing. We were so disappointed. The owner stopped by and asked how things were and we were polite, but honest. She seemed surprised and apologetic, but also didn't take responsibility for anything. Seemed annoyed that the help didn't know the ingredients of the veggie burger, said yes, they need to update the online menu, etc. But will anything change? We left hungry and will not return. read more

First of all I'd like to say they gave me the warmest welcome, when I walked in that made it so much sweeter. I went in for a scone (heard they have the best in town) they had many sweet treats, I got the cranberry soooo good. read more

Amazing new ownership and staff, pastry, sandwiches, soup are just great. Always a great place to stop for a good cup of Joe

This bakery is the definition of well-made baked goods. Whether it's the snickerdoodle or gingerbread cookies or banana bread, everything is very well-prepared and you can tell that the owner puts her all into everything made. The only disappointment is when you've finished your baked goods and you're left wanting for more. Would very much recommend to anyone in the mood for delicious baked snacks. read more

Lunch menu sandwiches "wraps" should be called "snack wraps" - there's nothing in it but a thin cut of chicken, a leaf of lettuce and some carrot shavings. Oh, and I love the intimidation to tip, as the owner turned the iPad screen around I placed my credit card in the slot it didn't process - as the owner started at me and then said you need to pick a tip amount to process payment..... This wasn't my first bad experience here so was giving it a second try.... read more

Such a charming little cafe to order your favorite coffee and pastries, with places to sit inside and read/work. The owner is very friendly and hospitable and makes you feel at home. Highly recommend! read more

Been driving by this place for the last 2 months and decided to stop in this morning. Got a egg and cheese and a cappuccino. Let's first talk about the egg and cheese. First it weighed 45 pounds. Once i opened it, surprise...homemade biscuit....did I mention HOMEMADE? And scrambled eggs. Not crappy frozen and microwave eggs you get at most places. The sandwich was so filling that I couldn't finish it. Did I mention the homemade biscuit? It was amazing. Can't wait for tomorrow. The cappuccino was also delicious. Albeit a smidge too hot but that just means it makes me drink it slower. It was the perfect combo of coffee, milk and foam. With a sprinkle of cinnamon. Now this was the perfect way to start my morning. Especially when lunch time isn't until 230 sometimes. read more

Bibi Cafe and Bakery - Egg and cheese on a homemade biscuit!!!!! - Bakeries Near Me - Westwood, Massachusetts

They are closed but Yelp says they are open. I drove 20 minutes to come here to find out they are closed. You should updated your hours.

We love everything about this bakery. Bibi is so lovely every time our family goes. The baked good are delicious and the birthday cakes are so good. read more

Raspberry crisp cookie and dinner rolls were excellent! The cashier was pleasant. We'd wanted to buy a loaf of white bread, but it was out of stock. read more

Karen P here guys! I'm getting really just exhausted from these cute little restaurants that LOOK cute but are DECIETFUL! I said that the lady on the counter needs to pick up the pace to some customer beside me because she was being slow and get this: the lady had the audacity to tell me that they've been busy and I need to wait my turn. When I tell y'all I dropped my jaw, I dropped that thang on the floor! I wanted to slap that woman down to Timbuktu! She told me that I need to wait my turn too. So after I ordered my food and they were preparing it, I left. And I did not pay. And I never will BE paying. Dreadful! read more

Great quality and great-tasting food, welcoming staff, caring owner, and fair prices. Fabulous addition to our town.

Great food and the customer service is always great. I recommend getting their buffalo wrap which always hits the spot.

Best fresh scones I've ever tasted! The love, care, and quality ingredients that go into every item made is obvious. The tea cakes, breads, quiche, and croissants are all amazing, and the Nutella rugelah is an absolute must try. Fataneh created heaven in this cafe :-) read more

Loved Bibi Cafe! So cozy and warm on a cold winter's day. Fresh baked pastries and cookies, homemade chicken noodle soup, homemade chicken salad. Everything was delicious. Great atmosphere. I felt like I was sitting in someone's kitchen :) read more

Adorable bakery. Decent parking space outside. Friendly people behind the counter. We ordered the veggie burger and soup of the day (tomato bisque) and ate it outside. The veggie burger was very large, and the soup came with hunks of focaccia and sourdough bread. Everything was utterly delicious. We then ordered a lemon bar, a ginger cookie, a chocolate chip cookie, and banana bread to take home. All the snacks were scrumptious, but the ginger cookie stood out -- it might be the best cookie I've tasted. read more

We stopped into Bibi's after a hike for lunch. The food was fantastic and the baked goods were absolutely INCREDIBLE. While I highly recommend the soups, sandwiches and cakes and cookies, I also need to say how incredibly friendly and warm everyone who worked there was to us! We will be back!! read more

This place is a joy. We moved to Norwood from Boston and passed it by chance. It's so homey on the inside and the breakfast sandwich was amazing. Bread was crumbly like a biscuit on the sandwich and pastries delicious. So glad a place like this exists and happy to support a small business. read more

A MAZE ING food Been 2x. kid friendly (table with paper, crayons etc) Everything is super fresh and tasty I'm a junkie of their scones The coffee was just okay. I'll try once more and update. But oh, the food... read more

Ive had the carrot cake squares here so 4 1/2 stars for that. But the egg breakfast sandwich was not worth $7. Way too much salt added and it was served on 2 squares of those small dinner rolls like u can get at the supermarket. Not terrible but about 2 1/2 stars for that read more

Cute place, great decor, very nice staff. The cupcakes were amazing. Be sure to try their pomegranate lemonade.... That's right .. POMEGRANATE lemonade!!! The scones and breakfast items are must-tries. We drove all the way from Braintree and it was worth every single mile! read more

Great pastries, bread and other delicious items. My usual is cappuccino, egg sandwich and banana bread, but we get just about every birthday cake from Bibi's - all are made to order. Bibi herself is a gem, friendly and helpful! read more

Great food all around from their pastries to the sandwiches and soups. Everything is prepared fresh, organic, made in house, and of high quality. The carrot cake is moist and somewhat dense and combines well with the really smooth cream cheese frosting. The apricot current rugelah is a must try and they have an Chocolate Orange cake that is to die for. I've had the Turkey sandwich on Ciabatta and the chicken salad wrap. I prefer the turkey sandwich. However, the absolute MUST HAVE is their Roasted Red Pepper and Gouda soup... it sells out quick it's soo good! You really can't go wrong with anything here... read more

One of my favorite little places. Amazing pastries, wonderful breakfast sandwiches and good coffee. Also, all the people who work here are super nice- Bravo! read more

After reading the reviews from yelp and Google, I was excited about ordering our baby reveal cake from Bibi's. When myself, my wife and my in-laws all took a bite of the cake, we were very disappointed. It was dry/tasteless and the frosting was not good. I ended up throwing out 3/4 quarters of the cake. Paying what we did for the cake and to be one that tasted like it was sitting around for days, I will not recommend them to any of my friends. read more

Live local and was up early one morning looking for a spot to grab some good breakfast. Headed to Yelp and started looking through the options. I came across Bibi Cafe and Bakery and was sold on a review about a breakfast sandwich on their homemade biscuits. Everybody love biscuits. Hassle free parking. Friendly and welcoming environment. Though there were no more biscuits when I arrived, BOOOO. I settled for an egg and cheese on focaccia bread and an iced tea. So good!! Food was hot, fresh and flavorful. I will be returning. read more

Bibi is a wonderful addition and a breath of fresh air to that piece of real estate on 109! The proprietor, Fataneh Dowlatshahi, takes pride in offering healthy, wholesale fare with clean ingredients, attractively presented. You'll pay a little more, but for us it's worth it because (a) the food (pastries, sandwiches, salads, soups, and baguettes) and beverages (the Pomegranate lemonade) are so darn good and (b) we get to support a local businessperson who took the risk to start a business in a tough category, busts her butt to make it a good experience for customers, and takes pride in providing a good product. @Grady M. Much has changed since you wrote your review 3 years ago. For example, the proprietor - like many business owners in this low-unemployment economy - has had a tough time finding and retaining dependable, reliable staff. You owe it to yourself to give it another try - you'll be pleasantly surprised! read more

Best coffee in the area. The staff is very nice and my daughter loves the dog artwork inside. Specialty cakes are really good for an occasion. read more

They make excellent baked goods. Everything is so good. Ned to give it a try. Don't love their egg sandwich though. read more

Really disappointed that on a Saturday at 11:00am, they had no muffins or bagels (though they had one scone) and the delicious looking egg and cheese biscuits featured in these pictures, no longer exist. The only bread they had was focaccia. I asked if there were other bread options and the answer was no. I'd give fewer stars due to the total lack of options, but I'm hoping once the world gets back to "normal", they'll have a better selection. read more

What happens when you feel invisible as a customer? What happens when you are waiting your turn politely, excited to try a local Cafe, look around and read the newspaper clippings on the wall, curious and eager to absorb the new space, wondering to yourself if there is a story behind George Rodrigue's Blue Dog paintings (or replicas?)..and the owner is restocking shelves and crosses you but doesn't say hello. What do you think? Maybe she's busy. Then another customer walks in. She gets immediate warmth and engagement. What do you think? Maybe she's a regular. Then you order and wait. And the conversation between owner and customer continues above your head. It's a little awkward. But you focus on your happy baby. Maybe they don't like that you brought a baby? Then you watch the other customer getting served a lemonade. Wait a minute. Is this happening to me? Where is my lemonade? Wasn't I first? So it's time to ask the server. "Oops sorry" she says, without a flinch of concern. I walk out with my husband and baby. And gasp for air. I didn't realize I was holding my breath as if bracing for a punch. What just happened? He looks at me and I don't even have to explain. He felt it too. Is it implicit bias? Is it racism? The other customer was white, we are youngish folks of color. Is it the suburbs? Would the owner and the server even know our experience was heavy and hurt? Unfortunately I don't think so. So I felt compelled to share it. Sorry I didn't tell you in person. I didn't so feel comfortable at the time. With all sincerity we know you didn't mean to look through us, over us and beyond us..I'm sure it was an accident. But I worry that's part of the problem: you may not be aware, we felt invisible and it hurt. We hope you don't mind us sharing our story. We feel it will make BiBi better for you and better for all of us. read more

Bibi Cafe and Bakery is an adorable cottage like cafe with tasty treats and breakfast and lunch options. I did the mix and match combo for $10 with the chicken salad wrap and cream of barley soup, the soup was particularly delicious and highlighted the Persian influence of the good-natured owners. There are about 2-3 tables indoors and ~3 tables outside for seating, but watch out for bees in the beautiful flowers outside. read more

Cute shop, but cupcakes were quite stale :( the frosting was good, but the cake was really dry and firm.

Unexpectedly good. Bibis is in a cute house on the main drag. Mostly sweets with some sandwiches, soups and a kids menu. Everything we had was good! I'm a coffee snob and liked their lattes - strong and full flavor. Great alternative to Starbucks. We ordered a kids grilled cheese, Thai veggie burger, and a GF blondie. Very satisfying. They even sell Greek olive oil in a large vat (self service pour). read more

Nice pastries, very tasty, limited selection...if you are stopping in for a quick bite and a coffee, highly recommend the visit...

This place is great. The servers are very friendly, it's clean and neat inside with some seating outside as well. They have lots of pastries (try the Chocolate Chip Nutella Rugelach and the cookies), sandwiches, smoothies, etc. I got a pomegranate lemonade which was excellent. It's priced fairly and cozy inside. read more
