It seems like there is a nearly endless appetite for coffee and pastries on Robson, and Bisou is yet another entry in this competition. If it were the only place around, it would stand out, but there is substantial competition up the street from La Duree, Paul, Le Belisse Cafe (my favorite) and others. I didn't try the sweet croissants, but the plain croissant was perfectly good. The bread, however, was a disappointment. The barista claimed that "all our breads are sourdough." But there's more to sourdough than just the technique. There's also the flavor. And what looked like a wonderful French boule turned out to basically just be a big hunk of white bread. I didn't have their coffee, so it might be great, but with so many choices around, I think I would probably go up the street. read more

Really adored how their croissant was bigger than the ones I usually see at other spots. It was crispy too. Huge pastry and drink selection along with kind staff. There were also different seating options. read more

These stars are mainly for the service, very nice people. The place is nice and clean with good seating. I came mainly for the croissants. It was at the end of the day so I feel like everything was a bit stale, but it wasn't bad. read more

Stopped by and tried a few pastries and coffee after shopping We ordered the white chocolate pistachio croissant and the pear danish. Overall i found that their pastries are decent but overly sweet. The sugar glazed oh the pear danish was quite sweet which overwhelmed the taste of the pear. For the filling of the white chocolate pistachio croissant tasted more like a cream paste than white chocolate but it was quite sweet (or maybe it was a cream paste?). The espresso macchiato was not my preference either because there was a tint of sourness to it Overall their prices a quite high for both pastries and coffee compared to other competitors around westend and coal harbour area too. read more

I wanted to check out the bakehouse after seeing photos of the pastries and the aesthetic. I ordered the white chocolate pistachio croissant and a matcha earl grey latte. This rating is mainly for the pastry, as the staff was very friendly and helpful when I was ordering. The croissant wasn't flaky. It was dense and didn't taste fresh out of the oven. The filling was mostly white chocolate, with only a very light hint of pistachio. Since it's known as a bakehouse, I had higher expectations for the pastries. The drink, however, was good. It wasn't overly sweet and had a nice balance between the earl grey and matcha. read more

Best Canadiano in town! the baked goods are always fresh and staff are always friendly

I am visiting the area from the island and walked past Bisou on an evening walk and suggested to a friend we try it out this morning. First of all it's beautiful inside. I have no idea about the decor but the baking is beautiful. I had a canadiano and my friend had a drip and both were great. I brought a beautiful croissant home for dinner. I generally follow a low carb diet but there was no way I was getting out of there without buying something! Such a lovely addition to the neighbourhood since I lived here. read more

bisou bake house on bidwell and davie is a haven for coffee drinkers, offering premium baked goods in the west end. it's calm and polished, the kind of spot that feels like a little retreat from the bustle outside. the front case is lined with glossy pastries, bisou special mousse, apple cinnamon danishes, and a wide selection of golden croissants. everything is arranged with precision, making it hard not to drool in front of the glass, though i recall from a past visit that the croissants i bought weren't as flaky or buttery as they looked. high ceilings, curved concrete walls, and warm wood accents give the café a modern feel, while touches of greenery, including a tall faux tree and fairy lights tucked in behind the bench seating, soften the edges. seating is a mix of sleek black stools, woven seats, and a large communal table, along with small round tables where people tuck in with laptops or books. natural light streams in through the windows, making it a pleasant spot to settle down and stay awhile. they also have five small tables available for outdoor patio seating out front. this time, i went for the matcha earl grey latte with oat milk. i was told to mix it well, and i'm glad i did, though the flavour leaned quite sweet, it carried the creamy, fragrant blend of matcha and bergamot. after a vigorous stir and letting the ice melt down, the latte tasted better and more balanced. overall, bisou is a solid neighbourhood coffee spot, whether you're working in solitude, or meeting up with a friend. it's beautifully designed, thoughtfully run, and makes even a casual coffee stop feel like a little luxury. read more

Bisou is located very close to English Bay and it a small cafe with really delicious looking pastries! When we entered, we were so confused on what to get because everything looked so good but then we decided to get their spinach and feta; it was really good. We also tried their strawberry matcha which was honestly really nice! Would come back to try their spiral croissant!! read more

We got the croissant and the chocolate cheesecake. Both were pretty bad. The croissant was HUGE BUT there was no butter flavour at all. The outside was not crispy and there layers inside were more like bread than a croissant The chocolate cheesecake had no cheese and no chocolate flavour. Service - it was okay. I liked the location and that they have some seating read more

I was overwhelmed with the options and tried the White Chocolate Coffee Croissant ($7.49) and the Nutella Cruffin ($6.49). Both were enormous! The Nutella Cruffin was covered in coconut on the outside and had nutella and cornflakes on the inside! The croissant was not too sweet from the white chocolate but I didn't really taste much coffee. They also taste much better warmed up! There's not that much indoor seating and they have a few small patio tables outside. They are very close to English Bay so you can always take your pastries to go and eat them there! read more

This cute shop is at the corner of Davie & Bidwell. The modern interior is fancy and upscale. The pastries are a bit pricey, around $7 & $8 CAD for specialty premium croissants, such as white chocolate pistachio and chocolate cookie. However, the white chocolate croissant was too sweet for me but probably perfect for others. The iced mocha was good and not too expensive but also not memorable. Staff is friendly and helpful but the restroom needed some looking after. Seating was available with several tables for small groups. read more

Had the pistachio danish and an americano. The danish was really good. The crust was flaky with a bit of honey glaze along the top sides. The filling was creamy and not too sweet. There aren't a lot of seating so it may be best to take out. If you do sit inside, there are 4 small round table with a bench on one side and small stools on the other. It is a bit cramp if all 4 tables are used. There is 3 seats along the window and outside, there are a couple of tables too. read more

I've been going to North Vancouver for years to hang out. However, I had never been to nor heard of Bisou Bakery House until today. While out on a lunch break walking around I came across Bisou's second location on Bidwell St at Davie St. It's a small bakery with limited seating but appears to have many positives going for it. Appearance - check! Decor - check! Vibe - check! Feel - check! Taste - check! Location - check! I was very impressed. I will need to go back & try a few of Bisou's other offerings such as their breads, which look absolutely amazing. Keep in mind that due to limited seating - this will be a 'grab & go' bakery. I was surprised to read that you can find Bisou's baked pastries in major grocery stores. Bisou also started supplying goodies to Fairmont Hotels in Vancouver & has recently partnered with major airlines to supply them with pastries and breads. Pop into Bisou when next you're in the West End. read more

Cute little cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of goodies and drinks to choose from. Picked up a Pistachio Cube and a Chocolate Hazelnut Speciality Mousse. Both are delicious BUT the pistachio cube is my favorite . The crisp outside and soft and chewy layers, fully filled with pistachio and I think vanilla cream. It's so freaking good! I took it back to the hotel but should have stayed and picked up a coffee or tea . read more

I tried the a few things from here. The date square was too sweet and so mushy that I couldn't pick it up. The daily soup was some sort of stew with lots of corn, and it wasn't that good. The loaf was kind of stale and crunchy/dense. Again, not tasty at all. Don't think I'd visit again. read more

We UberEats from here and stopped by on our way home to pick up more to go. These pastries melt in your mouth. So delicious, massive size and variety of flavors to choose from. The cream puff was the best thing I've ever had! The service is quick. Our delivery came fast. Inside, the staff is polite and attentive. The ambiance is what you expect it to be. read more

Found this place on Google maps and came here in the early morning. I absolutely fell in love with Bisou - as soon as you walk in, it feels like a luxurious bake house and it was tempting not to buy all of the bakery! If you're looking for some delicious French bakery, I would definitely recommend coming here. It's not too expensive either and is definitely worth it! Their pastries are so delicious. I personally had the fruit danish and it was perfectly crispy, with the right amount of sweetness too. The fruit on top added a nice touch too! Definitely check this place out if you have the chance. Would highly recommend. read more

Cute and cozy spot. They recently opened their Bidwell store. I've only tried their cheesecake and zatar bread. The cheesecake Was pretty good! The zatar bread was a little bit bland. The service was friendly read more

Unfortunate to have to add such a rating since we actually enjoyed our quick visit to this place. As the other review stated it has great decor and is very clean and looks pretty cool inside. The staff were very enthusiastic and friendly too. We also were offered a sample of their soup which was fantastic. The problem is with the bread loaf that we bought, since it simply wasn't good. There wasn't much on offer even though it was only five in the afternoon. This was supposed to be a sourdough with olives and despite there being a few baked onto the outer crust there was hardly any olives inside. What were there were not of great quality nor very large. I'm not a bakery specialist but I do go to a few considering living in the West End, and perhaps my standards are a bit high. However considering the nine dollar price tag we were really hoping for much better. Maybe others will be able to give better reviews to this rather new place. read more

I was looking forward to try this place but came away bit disappointed. Had an almond croissant to go for $6.49. Quite large but also quite dry and no almond filling at all. Never seen that at this price. Might as well have ordered a plain one as I had to add my own jam at home for some flavour! You guys owe me a refund... read more

I recently had a croissant sample that melted in my mouth. I also bought a baguette and it was lovely. On my next visit I bought a croissant and a baguette. I specifically asked if they were baked today and they said yes The croissant was not as fresh as the sample I had. The baguette was definitely day old. I will return and ask for a croissant and baguette off the baking cooking rack and then update this review. I sincerely hope this bakery is not selling day olds. The coffee is amazing. read more

i was really excited to try out this bakery, as its about a block from my place. I've tried the cream puff and the chocolate croissant. The layers of pastry weren't laminated and it tasted like it had been in the fridge for quite some time. Not going back, heading across the street to JJ for some quality pastries. read more

I've been frequenting this new shop at Bidwell and Davie almost every day since it opened. I love the decor and the quiet ambience. The staff are very friendly. The baked goods are amazing.

Enormous and high quality pastries, thoughtfully composed and culinary interesting. Would eat again!
