Y'all know I'm always down for a great local café, and this place absolutely delivers. The space is bright, clean, and open, with an effortlessly elevated feel. There's a beautiful outdoor patio with café tables, fire pits, lounge seating, and plenty of room for groups. Inside, there's a steady buzz of first dates, remote workers, and friends catching up. The pastry case is packed with fresh-baked pastries and breads, and they even serve fresh stone oven baked pizzas. My friend was OBSESSED with their smores cookie. It truly was one of a kind and absolutely amazing! Highly recommend getting. Their menu covers breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with plenty of options for a variety of dietary preferences. The drink menu is straightforward and lets the coffee and tea shine. I ordered the BLT on focaccia with the house salad, and the portion was Texas-sized. I even had leftovers to take home. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. While prices are on the higher end, the quality ingredients, generous portions, welcoming atmosphere, and thoughtful touches make it worth it. Bonus points for the self-serve water station with both still and sparkling water. Easily one of my top three favorite cafés in Los Angeles. read more

Boul'ange - Olive oil cake, s'mores cookie, blueberry pastry, and iced flat white. - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

After several visits to Boul'Ange on Fairfax, I think I've gotten a good sense of what this café does well and where it's falling short. First, the positives. The space is beautiful. It's one of those cafés that works equally well for brunch, meeting friends, or simply stopping in for coffee and pastries. The atmosphere is inviting, the décor is well thought out, and it's a place you genuinely want to spend time in. They also offer something that's surprisingly difficult to find in one place: solid coffee, good food, and quality pastries. Unfortunately, the biggest issue has been consistency in the kitchen. Every visit we've ordered many of the same dishes, yet they've come out noticeably different each time. Sometimes the food is well executed, and other times it's almost unrecognizable compared to a previous visit. Even the chicken has varied from one visit to the next. As a customer, you shouldn't have to wonder whether you'll receive the same dish you enjoyed before or something completely different. Our most recent visit was the most disappointing. My friend ordered a salad with a side of chicken and specifically requested no cheese due to a dairy allergy. The salad still arrived with cheese. Instead of remaking it, it appeared the kitchen simply removed the visible cheese and returned the same salad. It was obvious from how the salad looked after it came back, and while eating it we still found pieces of cheese, confirming it had not been remade. When someone has a food allergy, that's simply not an acceptable way to handle the situation. My fried chicken sandwich was equally disappointing. The piece of chicken was barely half the size of the bun, making the sandwich feel poorly assembled and completely out of proportion. It was disappointing enough that I asked for a refund. On top of that, this wasn't an isolated experience. We've had mistakes with our orders on previous visits, and during multiple visits we also noticed other customers dealing with incorrect orders as well. That points to a broader issue rather than a one-time mistake. I also think the manager on duty during our last visit could have handled the situation better. Strong management is essential in a café with this much potential, especially when mistakes happen. Boul'Ange has all the ingredients to become one of the better cafés in the area. The space is excellent, the coffee is solid, and the pastries are genuinely good. Right now, though, the kitchen lacks consistency, and until those operational issues are addressed, it's difficult to know what kind of experience you'll have from one visit to the next. read more

On the morning of Sunday, August 2, we had a family breakfast at Boul'ange. I think I've been here about five or six times so far. Back in January, I came here for brunch with about 10 members of my group. At that time, they didn't accept reservations, so my friend and I had to arrive very early just to secure a large table for everyone. It was quite a struggle. Afterward, I mentioned in my Yelp review that not accepting reservations was very inconvenient. Whether my review had any influence or not, I noticed on a later visit that they had started displaying a "Reserve for Table" sign. So, a few days ago, I called ahead and made a reservation for six people at 9:30 a.m. I originally wanted to order a pizza, but I was told that pizza is only available after 11:00 a.m., so I couldn't order it. At first, I was thinking about getting the Avocado Toast, but then I found out that the Boul'ange Breakfast comes with a croissant, butter, and jam, so I changed my order. The Boul'ange Breakfast included three slices of bacon, scrambled eggs, cherry tomatoes, and a croissant. As for everyone else's orders, one of my brothers had the Breakfast Sandwich, my other brother ordered the Boul'ange Breakfast, my mom also had the Boul'ange Breakfast, one of my mom's friends who was visiting from Korea ordered the Greek Salad, and another one of her friends had the Salmon Toast. We all drank Americanos, and for dessert, we shared a slice of carrot cake. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor dining area is quite spacious and comfortable, which I really like. However, compared to my visit a few months ago, I noticed that they have added more outdoor tables. Another thing I like about this place is that parking is free, the food is always delicious, and the staff are consistently friendly and welcoming. One thing I noticed this time, which I hadn't seen before, was that they were selling stationery. Another nice feature is that you can help yourself to as much sparkling water as you like. read more

Okay, this place is spacious and so well-decorated. It is perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done alone. Didn't get to try food besides a croissant, which I thought was super buttery. The matcha latte doesn't come sweetened and you can ask for a sweetener. I am definitely going to come back for a brunch or lunch soon. read more

Wow. 5 stars solely based on the ambiance itself. A friend of mine showed me this spot and it was great. Boul'ange is one of the nicest coffee spots I have been to. The ambiance speaks for itself. Pair that with good food and drinks? Match made in heaven. I tried their matcha and chai latte. The matcha latte is more focused on the matcha flavor which I can appreciate. I personally do like it a little sweeter but in a place like Boul'ange , they focus on quality and want the ingredients to stand out. The chai latte was great! Really good flavor and not overpowering. I also got to try their mushroom pizza which tasted so fresh. Simple ingredients made it so well balanced. Service was amazing. Orders were taken fast and drinks/food came out fast as well. Overall , would love to come back and show even more people this spot! read more

where do i even begin with boul'ange? it is a dream come true...the ideal cafe for working or enjoying with good company! AMBIANCE the space is bright, spacious, & beautifully curated. there is a very obvious attention to details here! there is a wide range of seating available indoors and outdoors: chairs for lounging, chairs for working, and chairs for yapping. the interior feels elevated yet welcoming. SERVICE staff are not only bright and personable but also attentive. on my first visit, a staff member was going to each unoccupied table to change the water for the fresh flowers. wifi is provided to customers at the time of purchase but capped at 1 hour per order (not item). PARKING i'm a huge fan of the free, dedicated parking lot provided to customers--something that feels like a rarity in this part of town! FOOD & DRINK brunch menu is available 7am - 3pm, while dinner menu is available 3pm - 9:45pm. pizzas are made to order from 11am onward. if you choose to dine in, your order (even if it's just a croissant) is served on a gorgeous ceramic plate. everything i have sampled from the menu thus far has been good and reasonably priced for the portions! croissants were flaky on the outside, soft and sweet on the inside. 01. latte with house-made sweetener (maple cinnamon) 8.5/10 02. chocolate croissant: 7.8/10 03. almond croissant: 8/10 04. smoked salmon focaccia 7.5/10 excellent amount of lemon zest & capers!! 05. mushroom pizza 7/10 06. short rib poutine 8/10 07. campfire cookie 7.8/10 read more

I love this place. What a pleasant surprise! The place itself is amazing - large open veranda with built in sofa lining almost the entire wall with tables for both groups and couples. Perfect place to relax, hang out and enjoy perfect LA weather. It's also very dog friendly - which a big plus for me. Inside is very tastefully decorated with and an exhibit of ceramic art - and two counters to order from, one side is for coffee and the other is for food. Their food is good, clean and tasty. We ordered the tempura cauliflower, crosscut fries and arugula snow salad. Well priced too. Also everyone who works there seems to like what they're doing. Friendly, warm and very helpful. Only thing is, parking can be difficult. There is a small parking lot, but with the size of this place it's easily full - so good luck with find street parking. And I went during off hours. Hope you do find parking, because it's so worth hanging out here. Loved it. read more

I liked the vibe of this spot. It was packed however. The servers were really nice and everything was pretty quick service wise. Definitely a nice spot to grab a latte and pastry or meet up with a friend. I have not tried the food or dining. My friend got a pain au chocolat and an olive oil cake. We felt the pain au chocolat was just ok (an odd butteriness. Not bad, just odd? I'm also super picky on croissants and pain au chocolat in general though. We didn't like that it wasn't warmed either). The olive oil cake was pretty good. He got an iced latte and said it was fine. I got a matcha latte with oat milk and enjoyed it. Definitely feel like their beverages are great. I got an oatmeal cookie and thought it was on the smaller side and kind of mid flavour profile. Not bad though, perhaps I should have tried something else. I'd definitely come back to try more drinks and maybe bread? It's called boul'ange after all and I didn't try too many of their pastries. Will check out other reviews and see what's worth tasting! All in all a cute spot. read more

I've been to Boul'ange a few times for brunch eats now and I just love it. The staff has always been over~the~top (but in a good way) nice when I've been in. Just so friendly and kind, really willing to help, be patient - like Disney level service in here. It's refreshing to receive such great treatment at a morning spot! I also like that they have a huge indoor space for seating, plus plenty of outdoor seats. I've sat in the patio area both times I've gone and was impressed with servers being able to always find us. They give you a number to take for your order to the table and then they'll bring your eats & drinks out. Now both times I've gone, I've had the Breakfast Sandwich. The chino valley organic pasture raised scrambled eggs are done perfectly with a piquillo emulsion on a brioche bun. I absolutely love having this for breakfast. Their Caesar salad was very fresh with light dill, parmesan reggiano and house-made caesar dressing sprinkled on top. Finally, their pastries are just divine! The matcha cookie is chewy and soft in all the right ways with tasty flavor. The blueberry brioche was covered in berries and tasted fantastic. The conchas are great - loved my matcha one. I haven't tried any of the coffee drinks yet but surely will on a future visit. However the ~ *Butterfly Pea Flower Refresher ($8) *Yuzu Lemonade ($5) *Lavender Lemonade ($5) -are all excellent drinks and so darn pretty. I'm totally obsessed with Boul'ange right now and will absolutely be back to try more on the menu. I haven't even tried the lunch/dinner menu yet properly. I'm a fan and so happy to have them in the 'hood. read more

Food here is excellent so too is the service and the ambiance. Had the mouthgasmic pleasure of ordering their kale salad. It was crispy crunchy and absolutely delicious. It's by far the best salad I've ever had in this county. I added chicken and that too was a solid addition. My co pilot had the Caesar salad which was also tremendous. I washed it all down with their beet juice which was pure liquid bliss. Aside from that, the ambiance is amazing. It's a huge space that you can work in while enjoying this food and the kindness of their service. What a place. Now I know where to schedule meetings and create my next characters. Thanks Boul'ange!!! read more

Extremely beautiful open space with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating that just fans across this huge lot! It's such a California vibe with the beautiful umbrellas and minimalistic, decor, and plants. When you think of California sunshine, this is the spot. Parking in surrounding area on the street is relatively easy to find if you don't mind walking. I may have missed it, but I didn't see the menu at all and so it was quite difficult to decide what I wanted with the menu directly in front of the cashier and the line being so long. I had to just take a chance and pick whatever I saw, which turned out to be a good choice. The breakfast sandwich and platter had really soft eggs that were really tasty on the bun. I wonder why the tomatoes have to be so big! Other that, everything is just perfect. The juice drinks like berry beware are pretty pricey being over $14 a glass! But for the California vibe, I guess that's the price you pay. Overall beautiful spot and we will be back for the other items that definitely serves the eye very well before the palate. read more

Had the croissant and it was great! Lots of layers, crusty in the outside, fluffy on the inside, and quite the size. The workers there are beyond nice, very helpful in reviewing the menu, and pays attention to all the little things. I didn't get any food, but it looked amazing. As you're working, a man's just stretching pizza dough on the side and it smells amazing when they get the pizza oven on. There's plenty of seating inside for you to do some work. You get free WiFi if you ask for the password, but it expires every hour so you have to keep asking. I didn't notice many outlets, so come charged. There's nice outside seating as well if you want some LA sun and breeze. Parkings limited to whatever you can find on the streets. read more

The Boul'ange is a great place for community. The inside of the cafe is perfectly made up of plenty of seating and gorgeous interior design all around. I enjoyed my time here reading a book and analyzing the architecture of the cafe. The workers were all through the cafe, providing excellent and friendly service to all visitors. The only downside was the latte I ordered. It was a regular latte with oat milk but wasn't the best. It tasted a bit bitter/pungent which I wasn't a fan of. Maybe next time I'll try a different drink or a perhaps a pastry. As of now I will leave this review saying I think the Boul'ange is more so a perfect spot to gather with friends, get some work done or just relax in a nice environment. read more

Great pleasant surprise. The ambiance had charm, fresh flowers, pottery and books. Those are all things I'm drawn to. The service was very attentive. I was surprised that 2 different managerial people came over to ask about our experience and the food. It is unusual for management anywhere to be so attentive. I loved the mushroom pizza, Cesar's salad and the "to die for cookies" I think they were called back yard cookies. Those are addictive! My left over pizza tasted just as delicious the next day. The dough is unusually delicious. I will definitely go back. read more

YUZU LEMONADE 10/10: This lemonade is amazing!! In comparison to regular lemonades, the yuzu lemonade has a particular taste that is citrusy and bold. This lemonade is quite sweet so for those who love sweet lemonade, this is for you! If you don't like too sweet of drinks, I totally suggest diluting it with sparkling water or still!! (You can get both at the water station). SMORES COOKIE 9/10: I think this is a really great and unique cookie. The cookie itself has a nice bite and it has marshmallow on top with a graham cracker crumb. Perfect for chocolate and sweet lovers! CHOCOLATE CROISSANT 11/10: Come here for their chocolate croissants! This is my go to place, perfect every time. AMBIANCE 10/10: Since I last did a review, they have added a lot more tables and umbrellas which offer such great outside seating options to enjoy the summer days!! NOTES-- - Shoutout to Manny and the manager Marie! They are so accommodating and made our experience memorable! read more

As other reviewer has stated, this is a beautiful cafe with both indoor and outdoor space, which gets pretty busy on the weekends. The service was fine, as you enter the cafe, you approach the cashier to order your drinks and any food items you might need. Pastries will be handed to you along with a table number for any drinks or food items that has been ordered. I've only really tried their pastries and I have to say they were decent but not amazing? It took two visits for me to finally get to try their croissant, while it was tasty and flaky, I didn't think it was amazing and I definitely have had better in LA. I've also tried their cappuccino and latte, both were just ok. So I think if I'm looking for amazing coffee and pastry this wouldn't be the spot, but if I want a pretty cafe to hangout/meet up with friends and I happen to be in the area, then I definitely will stop by. read more

Aesthetic Japanese-French bakery on Melrose! This bakery was huge with lots of seating and tables and options for breakfast/brunch. For baked goods, my friend and I split a croissant, campfire cookie, and blueberry brioche. I liked the croissant the most out of all of them. It was flaky and buttery, but I've had better elsewhere. The blueberry brioche was good and I like how it wasn't too sugary. The campfire cookie is interesting with crunchy and marshmallow-like texture, but wasn't exactly my cup of tea. All of these were good, but not mind-blowing. I also got the matcha latte and that was a mistake. It was more like a matcha milk with subtle matcha flavor. It also came unsweetened. Didn't enjoy that one, so would not recommend. There's a parking lot and the bathrooms are clean and nice. There's also wifi, so this a good spot to get some work or studying done at. Overall, a decent experience here and I would come back to try their other bakery items as well as their breakfast/brunch menu. read more

I've been here a few times. The food is good, and the space is great. Street parking on Fairfax is fairly easy. The seats aren't too close together, and I really love the layout of this place. It's rare to find a space this airy. If you're debating whether you should go here or not, just go. It's very nice. As much as I like this place, I'm leaving only 4 stars because there are better pastries out there. But I still recommend this place to people. I also posted a few photos, so take a look. I just want to talk about someone's long feedback for the owner. She says, "...as a business owner myself, I always like to support businesses and offer constructive feedback when I see potential... Today, especially in Los Angeles, many people are becoming increasingly conscious about their health, ingredients, and dietary preferences. Offering gluten-free options and a few more nourishing breakfast choices could make a huge difference in bringing customers back regularly." Lady, it's your choice to eat the food you eat. Do you share the same business vision when you visit bakeries in France? How about République? Their food is much heavier than this place's. If you want them to carry gluten-free items, just say, "I love your bakery. I hope you carry gluten-free items one day," or go somewhere you enjoy more. She also says, "...there were no gluten-free bread options, no omelets or protein-focused breakfast items, and overall very few healthy breakfast choices besides pastries or salad." Don't make it sound like their food is unhealthy. It's misleading. People become unhealthy because of the portions they eat. Non-Americans are often healthier even though they eat real food, butter, and bread. Anyway, this is the first time I've gotten annoyed reading someone's Yelp review. Sorry about the rant. I couldn't help it. read more

Great food, relaxing seating and friendly service that make for a great dining experience that even has free parking! Ordered the steak frites, margherita pizza and kale salad for dinner. Steak frites was cooked nicely, good sear & sauce (peppercorn sauce) and highly recommend having it with the waffle fries. The kale salad was huge, good enough to be shareable and works nicely with the margherita pizza we also ordered. Pizza had a nice crust, good leopard spotting and very fresh tasting. Def will try the other flavors on repeat visits . Ovens are clean and there's a window to see your pizza made on the spot. Overall service was very hospitable, checked on every now and then to see how things are going, always felt welcomed. The atmosphere is very nice and spacious, great for treating your friends or family out to. Overall great quality in both service and food with an upscale dining atmosphere that is a pretty affordable experience. Definitely worth giving it a try for breakfast, lunch or dinner!!! read more

If they are busy the service might be bad. The guy working there handed me my pastry on a PLATE and then tells me to wait over there to get my drink. I was confused why he didn't give me a number like everyone else. So I waited for my hot tea and I was disappointed they put it in a plastic cup. The lady working there made it right by making the hot tea again and bringing it to me. Thank you! The cashier was very haphazard and should have treated me like everyone else who was handed a number for dining in. He knew I was dining in because he handed me a plate. He can't make that silly mistake again or this restaurant will lose customers. Croissants sell out early and there might not be any left in afternoon. They were also out of chai in the afternoon. It can get busy, and a little loud, by noon and in afternoons. If you want more peace or space for yourself, go early. read more

Was really excited to check out this new cafe on Fairfax! I came with a group of friends on a weekday evening for a book club discussion and we loved the vibe and warm and modern ambiance. The interior is beautifully designed and spacious, and they have a nice outdoor patio with heaters. There's also a separate but connected section with a coffee bar. They're open until 10pm which is a big plus for friend gatherings or getting some work done later into the evening. There was a good mix of people getting some work done on laptops (they have free wifi) and some chatting over food and drinks. The space is large and has a variety of seating options. Love that there is a parking lot as well. Service was friendly and helpful as we took our time in deciding what to get! What we ended up trying: - Matcha cookie - rich and soft with white chocolate and macadamia nuts. Pretty good though the matcha flavor could have been stronger - Campfire cookie - loved this one! It is a rich chewy chocolate cookie with a marshmallow/graham cracker coating - Hazelnut biscotti - sweetness was well balanced and it had the perfect texture and was not too hard to bite into Shareables: all the dishes came very nicely presented! - Calamari frites - these were quite good! The batter was light and airy and didn't feel overly heavy. I like how they had fried and battered thin lemon slices and jalapeños in this dish as well for the extra flavor and kick - Fries - the fries were solid and we really enjoyed the garlic aioli it came with - Labneh with honey and flatbread - Wow! This was so delicious - one plate had the labneh (strained yogurt) with honey, and the other plate had a fresh and well seasoned flatbread. The yogurt was slightly tangy and paired well with the honey and warm, fresh flatbread - made for a super tasty combination! Definitely coming back during the day to get some work done and to try some of their drinks and other food items! read more

Very pretty place and, great service from beginning to end. The servers were attentive. Food was good but pricey for what it is. Went on a rainy Sunday and it was pretty full. One critique is having customers stand pretty awkwardly as they wait for someone to get up from their table. Saw some young ladies standing with their plate on one hand and coffee on the other just waiting til a spot opened. One of the bussers was on top of it though, asking other customers with empty seats at their table if they minded the extra company. If that's not already company policy and the busser did that on his own, it NEEDS to become standard! The place is way too pretty (and expensive) to have people waiting on the sides. Another observation I made was of a few customers no longer consuming and just sat while working. I get it if it's not busy, but pretty inconsiderate when there's a full house. Not a good place to work (on weekends at least). Would I dine in again? Probably not. Would I go to their espresso bar and order a coffee and pastry to go? I might! read more

Visit a couple of months ago. I was so impressed with the kale salad. It was dressed so nice with dressing and seasoning. Also tasted so good with pickle golden raisins, dice avocado and candied pecans. Comeback this time I was so super DISAPPOINTED, the Kale salad was so dry, under dressed and seasoning, pickle golden raisins tasted too salty, candied pecan was missing, and avocado fan on top which is I'm not a fan cause I have to break it down while eating salad. The green goddess dressing tasted weird, lack of herby flavor. Try Khubz and Labneh - HUGE DISAPPOINTED on this. It stated as smoked honey but actually just regular cheap honey, no smoking, poor quality and tiny amount of herb. Steak Frites - Poor quality of steak, overcooked. Specially the peppercorn sauce, so watery, not peppery. Tasted so gross. Soggy fried with pale in color, super dehydrated cut of chives, weird looking garlic aioli compare to my last visit. Pastry is so simple, can't call themselves as a bakery with a hand full of pastry item that they have. Need something more complicated and elevated. Matcha Latte was so flat and water down. Same as cold brew, tasted weird and flat. Not worth for $7 drink. Prefer the Rok at K-Town for better quality of matcha drink. Service is whatever, I don't know why the vibe went so off compare to 3 or 4 months ago. No attention on detail. Maybe they need to re-train both FOH and BOH. Seem like this place is going down the hill, by using cheap ingredients, no attention to detail, and careless about what they are serving from the kitchen. read more

I am blown away at everything this restaurant/cafe offers. Mid-city desperately needed a full-service cafe that is both upscale and cozy. The space is expansive, and has so much seating for people to come work, meet, etc. They have a designated coffee bar, as well. The place is really well designed, and has a great menu. Customer service was 10/10. The gentleman behind the counter assisting us was so helpful. He gave us his personal recommendations, warmed up some of the items we selected, and really showed his enthusiasm for us being there. Food, another 10/10. Every single pastry/bakery item was delicious. The caesar salad was so crisp and fresh. The matcha was authentic, and done right (although, you can ask for some vanilla syrup, in case you like it sweet like me). Overall, incredible establishment and I hope to see them flourish! read more

Said to be popular bakery in Shinjuku, it really tickled my curiosity to pay a visit ASAP. Especially just returned from Tokyo and didn't get a chance to visit Shinjuku. The venue got my jaw dropped given its size in this location, which was like the city's kinda center of crowd gravity. So huge, and not only the indoor space but also the outdoor patio. It really felt like I was teleported somewhere out of the city. It seemed to be popular for its baguette, but unfortunately tons of items on the pastry case was already sold out Saturday noon. The waitress did mention they got super busy from really early in the morning. I ended up with her reco of their top items from what's left on the showcase, getting their Matcha Cookie. Thanks to her, I enjoyed it being not so thick yet lusciously chewy with kickin' matcha flavor. Going all matcha, I tried their matcha latte, which TBH was bit the opposite to the cookie. While the cookie's matcha flavor was strong, the matcha latte tasted kinda watered down for my liking. Will I come back? Probably for their other pastries and just enjoying the cozy space! read more
