First off the service was great and friendly, timely and clean. Zero problems with the staff. Location is not bad if you know how to navigate the town well or you can get stuck in some traffic and a lot of extra work to get back to where you are going from. Food tho... yikes The bagels and large and taste like they are made from the dough used to make Safeway white bread. With a lot of blandness. I say this after buying 6 different ones and everyone's input and my own opinion who at on them that morning. I also bought three croissants, one bear claw style with nuts, one that had generic apple pie filling in it and one that seemed to have chopped walnuts and a cinnamon butter inside: one was good but the apple one was not, it would have been better plain. The other two were not bad but they were not very decadent or special considering the cost. Plus they were only ok after we heated them in the microwave in a damp towel then air fryer. I was told they were fresh but they were not it if they were fresh they were extremely dry and stale tasting. I think calling in our order made us prey for them slipping in the old or undesirable ones. It was over $30 which is more than what we usually pay at grateful bagel and the bagels at this place are a crime. We did the drive thru. I hate leaving bad reviews but I don't want to me complicate in these bagels. read more

I came in around 9am on a Monday for some last minute bagels and danish. There was no one else in there but me. I saw the day-old rack and got one bag of bagels (6) and one box of danish (6) each for $4.50. It was an astounding amount of food for $9.00. It all was delicious and perfectly acceptable for day-old. Each package was an assortment of different flavors. read more

We've been loyal customers for a while now, but after repeated issues with incorrect orders and poor service, we're officially done. It's frustrating when simple mistakes happen over and over, but what really pushed us over the edge was the way the wrong order situation was handled this time. Instead of being helpful or understanding, the response we got was dismissive and unprofessional. It felt like we were being blamed for trying to fix their mistake. Consistency, basic accuracy, and decent customer service shouldn't be too much to ask for -- unfortunately, this place keeps missing the mark. read more

WOW...! This place sucks! DIRTY, RUDE, overpriced...We were 1 of 2 customers there, & the lady forgot our order! They were out of everything by 9am & the lady was on her phone, took our cash, and never even washed her hands before making the food. This place is plain & simple dirty & run down inside & out! read more

The name sounds great - I pictured this awesome French bakery producing some high quality hot croissants. Nope. Limited selection of bagels and croissants, but there is rice bowls just incase. This is where I wish someone would go all out and build this awesome French bakery and/or produce some creative dishes - think outside of the box (like Ben & Jerry). The egg sandwich was pretty good - soft and crunchy at the same time. I was disappointed that the only choice of a cheesy bagel was jalapeño - really. It was ok, but again get creative - make like a gouda asiago bagel or something. read more

I've been going to this place for about 5 years now. The main reason was they pan fry egg dishes, it's the only way I'll eat eggs. HOLD THE PHONE!!!! THEY CHANGED THE MENU!!! It's been a few months since I have been there. I dropped in and was intrigued by the new expanded menu! The pork banh mi sandwich is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! My first one was on Wednesday and was blown away how good it was. I was stuck at work yesterday (Friday) and couldn't make it before close, ugh! So it's Saturday now, I was in Rohnert Park and was about to get something to eat. But remembered I had a craving for the pork banh mi sandwich. So I drove to Sebastopol and got one! I was going to drive home but my desire to confirm it's deliciousness took over! So I ate half in the parking lot! Yup, you guessed it! It was EVEN BETTER this time! HA! I'm thinking of getting another before close of day! LOL. Really folks, it's that good! For sure a keeper! PS. The new expanded menu is HUGE. Lot's of new choices. I can't speak for the new editions. But this sandwich is a good sign of the direction they are headed in! read more

I stopped in because this used to be a great place. I didn't have enough to tip so I just paid for my order, the girl who took my order turnaround, said something to the other girl making my order they both turned around and looked at me. And then, as I got to my car, and when I went to eat my sandwich, they had conveniently forgotten the cheese.. Pretty disappointed as I used to really enjoy the one over by the JC. I will not frequent this place again. read more

it isn't actually a cafe de croissants anymore yet still uses the name which is extremely misleading, the new owner served us and didn't put cream cheese on the bagel which i asked for. instead putting swiss cheese in the egg. when asked for cream cheese i was told that "we don't do that anymore"? read more

Bought a latte here. The coffee cup softened and t made a whole mess in my car and clothes. Please change tour coffee cup to a durable one.

If zero was an option i'd pick it. When i first walked in i was excited and greeted with a lovely interior, but when walking up to order i noticed something odd about the bakery case. IT WAS INFESTED WITH FRUIT FLIES. I was disgusted and so disappointed. I continued to order as i was already in line and hungry. upon ordering we felt very rushed and even allowed another person to go ahead of someone in my party. In my mind i was thinking, maybe this a display and they'll get my items from the back. Nope. It was grabbed right from the case with a dirty glove left on the counter, fruit flies touching every single bakery item in the case. Everything was handed to us cold right out of the case except for a bagel. We chose to sit at a table where we were then surrounded by the same flies with them even landing on our food. It was very obvious there was an issue here and the workers seemed to have no concern for it. Walking out of the establishment felt like a breath of fresh air. read more

Was a great experience, nice place Croissants are delicious . I will go back!!! Service is good too

Poor quality food. Croissants tasted and had texture of bread. Facility appeared dirty

Please update your doordash menu/customization options! I really liked this place for awhile but ordering via doordash has become somewhat inconsistent as most menu items don't list EXACTLY what comes with sandwiches or how they're served. I ordered what I thought was a cold tuna sandwich today and it came grilled with cheese on it (doesn't say it comes with cheese or gives you an option to remove the cheese on the app). Luckily all of the cheese was only on half of the sandwich, I actually thought it was a grilled cheese when I opened it. I'm sensitive to cheese so I can't really eat that side unless I want to suffer later lol. Still disappointing though because it was $12 (I got a yerba mate as well) before taxes + delivery and I recieved a slightly warm soggy sandwich that has waaaay to much cheese on one side. Bummer. I really used to love this place. I'm sure it's different if you go in person but from what I've recieved the last few times via doordash, it just isn't worth it for people who use that app for the convience of it. read more

Food is fabulous. Service is great. Lovely patio to relax on. Couldn't be happier with my experience.

With Starbucks directly across the street, it's easy to choose big corporate because of the convenience and familiarity. And yet there's something to be said about supporting a family business. We ordered a croissant toasted with cream cheese and a good old fashioned cup of organic coffee with sweetened cream. Ninie is very pleasant, and personable. Her smile lights up the room. Michael Jackson fills our ears as they play a local popular music station, and we are enjoying the ambiance. This place is family friendly, and comfortable. You have the option to buy day old pastries, savory and sweet by the bag for a "sweet deal". If you're wanting a chai or caramel latte, you can get those here! So delicious, and you're purchase becomes an investment of livelihood for a neighbor. read more

Most places were busy in town so I thought we'd stop in here since it had changed hands recently. They were out of tomatoes! This is disaster for a sandwich place. My mother's sandwich was cut in half and had a nice set of ingredients sans Tomato. I ordered the turkey cheese pesto with veggies. Since I eat a plant based diet I asked that to leave off the cheese and turkey and up the veggies. I asked after I saw what I was served for $7, for avocado on it. Begrudgingly the 18 year old in the kitchen scooped out what you see on this plate. When I got it back to my table I looked at the plate and it was ringed in grease! I took it back disgusted and asked for my money back. Oh, the sign says sour cream in your burrito is an additional $0.75 !Enter this place with caution. read more

Cafe Des Croissants has many outlets in Santa Rosa, lst i've seen is here. lots like a former burger place with drive thru window. (jack?) menu: salads, hot/cold sammies, coffee, bagel, croissants, egg sammies, all day special menu (breakfast croissant, etc), etc. eats:breakfast special: sausage, egg, and jack cheese croissant w/coffee(5.99) -peerless organic french roast was fab. -croissant was strange, texture doughy. -croissant sammie interesting, filling -good value, single item ordering not a good value. take outs: -honest people here, forget my change, they gave it to me along with the sammie later. (long drive, awake but inattentive). -specials good value but not the greatest taste. fresh though. -lots of seating. -prep time, 10 minutes? -entrance very narrow lane, easy to miss, 2nd lane is exit one. 3.5 stars for the specials. read more

This lady was hustling , answering the phone , cooking food , and she was super nice , such a home feeling ! I'll definitely be back !

We ate breakfast here this morning, and the restaurant was FILTHY. I don't think the floors have been swept in a month, there was food scraps and crumbs on the windowsills, all the tables had crumbs, spills, and grime on them. The bathroom was pretty bad too. 2 teenagers working there were friendly, but were sitting on their phones the whole time... obviously not worried about the cleanliness of the restaurant. They might want to get a manager there before they start losing clients. If the main area (where clients see) looks that bad, it makes you wonder what the kitchen looks like. Very unappetizing. read more

Oh my god this place is so nice , all the food it good , THEY COOK THE EGGS On THE PAN , and the croissant egg sandwich is very good . The mini almond it the best . And bagel very good too. I will be back For sure PS very good price . For me to come more often . Yes ! read more

I went inside to wait for my oil change next door. Please shut down for a week and just clean! Walked back to the tire shop to wait there.

Came here for breakfast, got an egg, cheese and sausage croissant sandwich. The croissant was fine, buttery and flaky but a bit undercooked. Not as bad as Costco or Burger King croissants but they don't transport you to Paris either. Eggs were freshly cooked and they added jalapeño on request. Service was excellent and friendly. Latte was just OK. Bathrooms need some work,& they're pretty beat up in fact the women's restroom was closed. Overall one step up from fast food with many of the same options. Fine for basics and great service but I won't hurry back here for the food. read more

I ordered a lox bagel and I am very disappointed. Not even close enough lox. Half of my bagel has literally three small pieces. How can they charge people for this? read more

It's a really good place but they never, never,never, never, open on time I mean never

This is their small iced coffee and it's over $4. The lid also didn't fit and it dripped all over my car. Did this place change hands? I really liked the old staff. Don't get me wrong, the new staff is very nice and sweet, but ever since there's been new staff I noticed the quality has been declining. They never have the cream cheese I want in stock. The lids obviously don't match the cup size. It's little things like that that have started making it inconvenient to come here. read more

Did this place change hands? It's not at all like how it's portrayed on their website. I went to the Rohnert Park restaurant for a mid-morning breakfast and was underwhelmed at the food after looking at the menu online ahead of time and getting excited about the prospect of a good croissant breakfast sandwich. This restaurant has an enormous menu with fairly complicated breakfast offerings, but they aren't hitting the basics, like good coffee and quality ingredients. I ordered a classic breakfast burro which was huge (bigger than what was pictured) but it was mostly filled with what seemed to be pre-packaged potatoes which had been frozen and thawed. Likewise, the coffee was unremarkable and served with plain milk, not half and half or cream. Have definitely had better. Disappointing. read more

I love this place. I get breakfast here nearly every day with my girlfriend specifically because of how nice the staff is and how great the atmosphere and food is. I dont think they serve a single bad tasting thing on their menu. The only drawbacks are the location and parking, the location is a bit obscured from the road so it's a bit difficult to get into parking. But it definitely gives it that underground feel like you've found a gem that noone else knows about. read more

Croissants were more Cakey than flakey. Lots of flavors in both large and small sizes.

I had high hopes for the once pasta restaurant turned croissant breakfast restaurant but alas, I was a bit disappointed. To be fair I did not try any of the croissants. I did, however, order the spicy breakfast burrito and my boyfriend ordered the garden salad with a coffee. The breakfast burrito was pretty decent and I enjoyed it but the garden salad was pretty pathetic and sad looking. The energy of the restaurant was that of stressed employees/owners which seemed to have led to un-bussed tables, running outside to ask questions about people's orders, and serving a man at a table next to us the wrong sandwich even though there were only a couple people in the restaurant. They were also out of a lot of things that the woman in front of me was asking for. This place could really be something with the right management. I won't totally dismiss it but it won't be my favorite go-to breakfast place. read more

This is my new favorite restaurant in Sebastopol. What a find! Huge portions, tiny prices, and incredibly delicious. Their croissants are unique -- much better than any Panera pastry, and ten times better than Starbucks' overpriced LaBoulange. Our very picky fresh-obsessed salad connoisseur was well-pleased. The egg-bacon-cheese croissant makes me regret every egg mcmuffin I've ever had. The staff were super-friendly. The new wood interior is gorgeous. Just one complaint: the water-glasses are way too small. UPDATE: They fixed the water glasses! read more

This is my first time ever at a Cafe de Croissant...I just read a few reviews and it sounds like it's it's a chain...bummer. I hope it's a local chain! That would be awesome! I ordered their healthy choice egg sandwich on a croissant. It normally comes on wheat bread and has egg, tomato, spinach, avocado and cheese...yummmmm! I was quite surprised at how inexpensive it was also. Less than $6! What?! I should give an extra star for deliciousness level exceeding my expectations, the service was friendly, welcoming, informative and all around fabulous! I guess the only thing that doesn't make this a 5 star establishment is the decor...but it's not bad either. The food came fast, hot and FRESH! Yes please and Thank YOU! I really appreciate establishments that meet all my expectations and that is hard to do! ;) Croissants, bagels, sandwiches, pastries, swift and friendly service, plus good coffee, ok... I really could go on and on...I am really glad I checked this new lil spot out! Bravo cafe de Croissant! read more

Great little place. Huge delicious croissants. Great choices and hot and cold sandwiches. My wife got the turkey bacon pesto croissant Panini. A very nice blend of flavors. I got the meat lovers breakfast sandwich with sausage ham bacon egg and cheese on a huge croissant. Staff was slammed but remained extremely friendly and accommodating. Great value for five dollar sandwiches. read more

This place is exactly what you'd assume when looking at these photos and driving up to the establishment. Mediocre customer service, standard "donut shop" sandwiches at a decent price. I went in assuming this and got exactly that. I'd for sure go back again, this croissant sandwich was a solid choice. read more

Food was alright, good variety on the menu. Coffee was good with cheap refills available. However, the cleanliness of the restaurant was disgusting. Stuff all over the floor, looked like it hadn't been swept in days. Tables have not been bussed. This restaurant has potential, but I will not be back again. read more

Just ok croissants. The almond had meager filling. My husband had the sweet cheese that had ample filling. We ordered to go. I was annoyed that I felt pressure to tip for the counter help to put 2 pastries in a bag. There's a sign on the tip jar that says; "Tipping isn't just for cows!" We paid by credit card and they had a spot above where one would sign the name that says TIP $1, $2, or $3? What? read more

Been to this place a number of times...some times it's better then others. The last few visits it has been painfully slow...like 30 minutes for a sandwich slow, after a 10 minute wait to order. The food is decent, the coffee weak. The selection of pastrys is large and pretty tasty. Sometimes they have music being played inside, and the outside seating is a good touch. read more
