Cool spot. Super busy, non stop lines too. It was pretty quick to get in and order whatever you want. They do have tables and places to sit but unfortunately it's so busy and people don't really eat and run so it's hard to find a table. You can order for there or to go which is nice. I didn't like my coffee I ordered a banana latte n not very good but my quiche was really good. I did take croissants home and bread back to Fresno and my family loved them.

After coming here two years ago, I decided to give this spot another try and I'm sad I did. Went in on a Tuesday early afternoon and it was packed but no line. We were helped and got some breads. The price has gone up significantly. The ham & cheese croissant was about $8.50 before tax and tip. It was alright. The salt bread was not good at all. I got the garlic one and it wasn't tasty and buttery like typical salt bread. The bottom had some burnt pieces as well. Edible but not the prettiest when I'm paying top dollar. We got the banana cream latte and banana cream matcha and they were both HORRIBLE. The banana cream latte was extremely bitter with no banana taste. I thought they gave me the wrong drink but on my final sip, I finally got a tiny hint of banana. The banana cream matcha was super sweet and sugary with again, no banana taste. You can also tell the matcha isn't even moderate quality. I'd definitely skip on the drinks. Not sure why but I never seem to have a good experience here. The service is just alright and cold. I still think it's annoying we have to go up twice if we ordered bread AND drinks as they come out separately. If you're sitting at a table, you're waiting for your name to be called and it's super loud inside so you're going back and forth to grab your items. I don't think it's the most efficient system. The bread wasn't good either and the drinks were horrendous. Will stay away again for a few years...

Arrived this morning around 11am and line was long out the door. Most of the pastries were out at this time, i would come closer to 12pm for the pastry refresh. They still had the croissant cube i like and tried the matcha croissant to try something new. Also ordered off their hot brunch menu, the smoked salmon avocado toast w side salad and the burrata avocado toast but partner doesnt like cheese so ordered without it, comes with side salad. Also ordered an Americano and a Banana cream latte with almond milk. Thankfully there were plenty of seating as the first half morning rush already left, but by 12pm seating became sparse. The matcha croissant outside is white chocolate with matcha powder i believe, very sweet, not a huge fan of white chocolate. Inside there is chocolate which is nice, it's a nice crossiant tho and the signs say they use french butter and chocolate. The crossiant cube was delicious as always. The coffee was okay,,, the banana cream latte is better after all the cream as mixed into the espresso. I enjoyed my smoked salmon avocado toast, they give u plenty of smoked salmon and salad, the huge tomatoes on the burrato avocado toast is very tasty, they sprinkles olive oil and pepper on top i believe. Overall pretty nice brunch everything was just under $80 which is a bit steep for brunch but this place really has the most variety pastries in one place and tho coffee isn't the best but at least they have the option as well.

If you love croissants or pretty looking desserts, this is a place worth checking out if you're in the Bay Area. I came here on a weekend so parking can be difficult and the line can get long. Luckily, the line moved somewhat quickly with plenty of staff being efficient with taking and preparing orders. There's plenty of savory and sweet pastry options. I tried the almond croissant, pepper sausage danish, mango croissant, and ham & cheese croissant. There's limited seating but you can always do takeout. FYI: No cash accepted

Food: the mango croissant and fig croissant were the best! I also tried the peach Danish, but they didn't include many peaches so it tasted more like the cream and croissant and didn't seem as special. I would like to try their strawberry croissant next time. Prices are a little high/ average for a fancy bakery, but at least everything tastes really good to make it feel worth the cost. There were a few blemishes on the croissant sometimes but it didn't affect how it tastes. The croissant sandwich was decent, but not the star of the show. I bought a matcha croissant as well and I thought it was ok, the matcha taste was pretty strong throughout, I just would like it to be more like a matcha cream filled croissant instead. Pistachio Basque cheesecake that my friend got was also ok. Probably not the best cheesecake I've had, but so so. Ambiance: large open space with tables. My friend and I were trying to get brunch at Giwa, but it was way too crowded on a Sunday afternoon so we came here instead. There was only a short wait and we found a table easily. Service: you stand in line and choose the pastries you want and can order brunch items/ drinks at the counter as well.

Great baked goods, great breakfast offerings, great coffee, very pleasant decor. For a breakfast experience, it is quite up there. We heard of this place for a while and decided to try it out with some visitors. The baked counter has intimidating large selection, our eyes wanted to order everything. We ended up with some french style baked items and a croissant tray. Of course also coffee. Everything was particularly made and delicious. We then went back to buy two big bags more to go home.

Went here on a Sunday around opening hoping not to wait too long. Even though it was raining, the place was still packed and the line overflowed to the outside. Luckily I had my umbrella, we waited in line for maybe 30mins. It was plenty of time to decide what to get. Wanted to mention, the parking was big, but still not too many open spots, didn't take long to find one though, I can imagine it getting worse on busier days. Plenty of sitting inside but with how loud it was, I would rather eat it outside tbh. There was almost too many options that it was so difficult to pick a couple to try. We ended up with pistachio croissant, almond croissant, french toast, mango croissant item, and 2 iced coffees. They heated some of our items and packed them. We waited a little bit more for the coffee but not too bad. I like the open kitchen concept and seeing the ingredients they used made me appreciate this place more. Alot of higher end baking ingredients and their ovens were so pretty. Okay time to try the stuff we got! Our top two was the almond croissant and the pistachio croissant. I was so happy that a placed named croissante had good croissants. lol The pistachio was very generous with the pistachio pastry cream, the almond was also very tasty, love the crunch on the outside. Our coffees were a bit on the sweet side but still tasty. I think I didn't like the mango croissant because it was all cold and the mango was sour, not really in season when we got it maybe that's why. Anyway I do want to try some more items, maybe on a less busy day so I can enjoy eating inside. Oh, items were pricey btw, nice little treat from time to time.

This place can get pretty crowded depending on when you go. I've noticed that if you come earlier in the morning, that's when it's the busiest since everything is fresh out of the oven, and honestly, who doesn't want to start their day with fresh-baked pastries? That said, they're constantly restocking, and the staff has a well-oiled system down. Even when it's busy, things move surprisingly efficiently. PASTRIES/BAKED GOODS: 9/10 I love their pastries and baked goods! I honestly haven't had anything that was a miss for me, whether it's savory or sweet. Everything I've tried has been delicious. FOOD/MEALS: 8/10 As for their meals, I thought they were good, but not quite as memorable as the pastries. I ordered the avocado toast, and while it was hearty and generously loaded, I felt like there was just a little too much going on. Both the salad and the toast were dressed a bit too heavily for my taste. COFFEE: 8/10 I also really enjoy their coffee. My go-to is the Latte Einspänner, and it pairs perfectly with their pastries. You can really taste the quality of the espresso, and I appreciate that it's not overly sweet. SERVICE: 9/10 The staff is quick, efficient, and constantly on the move. As I mentioned, they run like a well-oiled machine, even during the morning rush. AMBIANCE: 8/10 Seats fill up fast! If you're planning to dine in and you spot an open table, have someone in your group grab it while the other orders; tag-team it, lol. I also love the overall aesthetic. The wooden tables, sky blue and yellow color palette, and bright space make it feel warm and inviting. And of course, the giant glass displays packed with beautiful pastries are hard to resist; they're practically part of the décor!

Wish I could give this 4.5 stars! We went down the line and started with the ham and cheese croissant with their homemade sauce. They warm it up, and it was by far my favorite thing I tried- so gooey and delicious. Definitely a must-order! Next was the Kouign Amann, their #3 best seller. It was good, but honestly didn't wow me. We also tried the Everything Salt & Butter Roll, which was tasty, but after that ham and cheese croissant, it was hard to top. We also ordered the egg and bacon croissant from the menu. Made-to-order menu items take a little longer, so be prepared to wait. I don't think I'd order off the menu again as the counter is plenty good on its own. My family tried several of the other goodies and was really happy we made this new stop. All of the drinks we ordered were great, although they did take a little time. We went on a busy Saturday morning, and the line was long with seating pretty packed, but it was great to see the place thriving. We'll definitely be back- probably on a weekday when it's a little less hectic!

Sooo good

My friend and I came here for breakfast. This has been on my friend's list to try and i am so glad we did because it was delicious. You line up, pick your pastries and order your food if you are eating in and then pay at the counter. Then, they will deliver the food to your table. For breakfast I got the Eggwing toast ham which comes with honey butter toast, egg, ham, lettuce and tomato. That was so good!! I devoured it. I also got Latte with beautiful art. Again, I love it! It was a perfect combo. My friend got the chicken and croffle. She loved it. She said the chicken is most and perfectly seasoned. I took home, almond croissant, salt breads (garlic, chocolate and truffles), toast box, and ham & cheese croissant. Everything was delicious! My daughter loves salt bread and our favorite is the chocolate. She is asking for it already. My husband, sliced the toast box and toasted it, added condensed milk (oh lord! That was the bomb). We'll for sure be back when I am in the area.

The new organic carrots with Jambon-Beurre was a very disappointing presentation. There are like 5-6 half cooked humongous family of carrots that looked unwashed you could actually see the muddy filthy roots drizzled with olive oil and pepper and alongside is the Jambon-Beurre and a separate sliced baguette. See picture below . It wasn't worth $20. I was imagining baby organic carrots and was so surprised to see it so big. Croissante , you can do a lot better than this.

I came here because I had heard a lot about this spot from social media. Unfortunately it didn't live up to the hype for me. I would say the baked goods looked better than they tasted. It wasn't that they were bad but they just weren't great. I wouldn't drive all the way there just to have it. There's plenty of parking and there was always a line for the entire time that I dined there. The line moves fast though. I had the mango croissant, strawberry croissant, pan au chocolat and the mushroom pesto focaccia. I liked that the cream in the mango and strawberry croissant was not too sweet. The fruits weren't sweet though so it didn't feel premium enough for the price. The mushroom pesto focaccia didn't have enough flavor from the pesto. It was my least favorite item of the lot. They so have restrooms but I wish they were maintained better and cleaner.

I was craving croissants and my husband offered to purchase them at any bakery of my choice. Since I hadn't tried this place yet, I decided to send him here. I reviewed the Yelp pics and wrote him a list of pastries I wanted to try (croissants, kouign amann and salt & butter rolls). Unfortunately, when he arrived, only croissants were available. I thought the croissants were just okay. The exterior wasn't as crispy as I preferred and the inside wasn't as buttery as I had hoped. However, I did enjoy the ham & cheese croissant. I love saucy food and there was a layer of mayonnaise in the pastry.

Ask the Community - Croissante

Do you make gluten-free croissants or do you make croissants with the French flour?

We don’t offer gluten-free croissants, but all of our croissants are made with 100% label rouge (premium) French flour.

Do they use French flour for all their pastries?

Is there a gluten free selection?

No BUT French flour is very different than American and if you are gluten sensitive with American products it doesn't mean that you will necessarily feel the same. I have multiple employees that eat gluten free and they ate croissante pastries… 

Do they offer strawberry iced lattes?

Nope! That sounds yummy though!

Do you have free wifi?

Yes, you need the password.

Hello - will your location be open on July 4th Thursday? :)

From my research of their website, they should be open. They even appear to be taking orders online! I hope that helps!

Are any of the breads vegan (no egg, milk, or butter)? I am wondering particularly about the baguette, french country bread, and walnut cranberry country bread

As far as I know, most of their lean breads (like the ones you were questioning) do not contain dairy. I know there are lean breads with a dairy filling or inclusion.

Is there any croissant without eggs?

Unfortunately, all croissants have eggs in them .

Are there still lines first thing in the morning?

Yes I went there even at 930am and there was still a line. I went another day around 2pm and no line outside but still wait inside.

Don’t See Your Question? Ask Away!

Loved it! Got a matcha donut thing which was in a sleeve... it had so much filling... it was way too much for me. I think the last thing I got was some garlic cheese croissant. That was delicious. Too heavy for me. They had sample cake slices at the counter! I tried the cake and it was also delicious. One con: the service... the guy that took my order seemed so harsh....

I had such a fun time exploring their bakery and café offerings. It's the kind of place where everything looks too good to pass up. I started with a Cappuccino 16oz (creamy, rich, and the perfect morning pick-me-up) and a Caramel Macchiato 16oz with oat milk for a smooth, slightly sweet twist. The pastries were next-level: the Mango Cream Donut was light, fluffy, and bursting with fruity goodness, and the Guava Danish was perfectly flaky and sweet with just the right hint of tropical flavor. *Tina's Tips: - Grab a tray, tongs, and parchment paper to make picking your pastries fun and easy. - Add all the pastries you want and checkout at the counter. - If you buy a cake, ask them to hold it while you enjoy your coffee and treats in the café. It's a nice little bonus! Just come here with your friends or yourself! Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee with people, indulging in pastries with company, or even just treating yourself, Tous Les Jours makes every visit feel like a little celebration.

Crepe cake cafe with well made desserts…read more Situated right next to a huge parking lot, I came here with a friend for some cake and to pass the time before a dinner reservation. Interior is very neutral/beige with the pops of color coming from some plants scattered inside the space. There's WiFi available and for 6pm on a Saturday, it was empty. We ordered two cakes: pandan raspberry and a tiramisu. Both were really well layered but it tasted like the tiramisu had far more cake layers than the pandan raspberry. The pandan raspberry was more raspberry with minimal pandan flavor. The tiramisu tasted just like its name and was great! Both were very lightly sweet cakes, and it was surprisingly easy for my friend and I to devour two slices and still feel ready for dinner later. I wouldn't get the pandan raspberry again, but would be willing to try other slices with how the tiramisu was. The downside is the cakes are pricey. And it feels the interior can't decide if it's trying to be minimal on purpose, or the furnishings were meant for a smaller space/grab-and-go only spot originally but then they moved to a larger location with seating. Good cakes, I would consider swinging by here to pick up a slice for a special occasion.

I've been coming to La Patisserie in Cupertino for years, usually when I'm already in the area…read moreshopping. There are a lot more fancy dessert shops around the Bay Area these days, but somehow I still come back for their Guava Cake. It's actually a strange craving. I don't think about this cake every week. Sometimes I completely forget about it for months, then one day something goes wrong in my brain and suddenly I NEED a guava cake. I've had this cake many times over the years and that's probably what impresses me most - it really hasn't changed much. Same fluffy cake, same very fragrant guava flavor, same bright old-school appearance. Maybe the angle of the whipped cream piping has changed a few degrees over the years, but I'll allow that process deviation. The guava flavor is the main reason I keep buying it. To me, it tastes surprisingly natural and close to real fruit. I've had plenty of guava desserts where you immediately get that artificial syrup/flavoring impression. I don't get that here. The guava is strong and fragrant, the cake itself is very light and fluffy, and the mousse and glossy guava topping give you that fruit flavor in almost every bite. This is definitely an old-school cake. It's not trying to be Lady M or some modern Instagram dessert. And that's fine. A good traditional cake is still a good cake. Usually I'm buying the whole cake to bring to someone's house, so I've watched a lot of first-timers try it over the years. Guava is guava - some people think it's on the sweet side, others love how fragrant it is. But somehow this is the one guava cake I've brought around that pretty much everybody ends up liking. And one comment I hear a lot is how natural the guava flavor tastes. It's around $70 for a whole cake now, which definitely isn't cheap. But if I'm paying that much for cake, at least give me something I can actually remember the next day. This one I can. If I'm planning to pick one up around 4 or 5 PM, I normally order earlier in the day. I've learned not to conduct unnecessary cake-inventory experiments. After all these years, La Patisserie's Guava Cake is still basically the same cake I remember. Dr. C long-term stability study: PASSED. Whipped cream piping angle may have experienced minor process drift. No CAPA required.

Wisely, I checked Yelp reviews first because some deals can be too good to be true. It's hidden gem off El Camino and near Lawrence Expressway where those that know good Korean baking have this spot on their short list of preferred places. I arrived a few minutes before my scheduled pick up time and Korean grandma behind the counter was super pro, teaching me how to confirm check in and gave me a mixed bag of baked goods with/without fillings. If you like surprises, are omnivore & no special diets or food allergies, Too Good To Go is the way to explore. The items were in generic packaging without labels, so take a pic of the items you like so can order when visit next time. While my family enjoyed all the items, I really enjoyed the black sesame studded puffy rolls that I think were made with rice flour. There was a large group of older Asian ladies, including one who brought their lap dog, enjoying good conversations in their native language with their baked goods and tea or coffee. Another gentleman was taking a video call to help decide the best cake to buy. Will add this bake shop for a place to have a coffee meeting and to favorite in Too Good To Go.

It was near 5pm. I walked in and the place was empty. The gentleman behind the counter greeted me. I asked for a strawberry smoothie, then walked around to survey all the baked goods. It's a small bakery with lots of trays of individually packaged cakes and pastries. The smell was very pleasant and comforting. Using a flat basket (or tray) I grabbed a few selections. I picked 2 "Heart Pies" that resembled my favorite French Butterfly Cookies. Also 2 pound cakes. The total rang up to just over $21. There's some small tables for enjoying your purchases there, but I took my items to go. The icy cold fruit smoothie was very good and very cold! Not too sweet, it had a natural strawberry taste.

I love egg tarts so I had to come and try this bakery. As you can see in the photo it's flaky and…read morewell filled! It's partially 5 stars because the lady who helped me was so welcoming and sweet. She offered me a bread sample and a free coffee! The Pasteis de Nata are $3.50 a piece but that seems to be the going rate for tiny homemade pies (and similar baked goods). If you're used to the Asian version of this snack, it's a little heavier/thicker and this particular one might have had some cinnamon flavor in it? I'd give it a light toast for the best experience, but eating it straight from the box was delightful with the coffee as well. Support this local business! Final tip, park on the street right outside the shop and before you pass the shop. I ended up making a loop to get back because there wasn't a good spot to park on the next block.

A Portuguese gem. My father in-law turned 80 this year 2026, and he grew up in Bakersfield, a huge…read morePortuguese populated town. To celebrate his life and culture, I wanted to surprise him with some childhood sweets. I called in my order of traditional malassadas, rice pudding, Queijadas Portuguese Egg Tart, and assorted Portuguese Biscoitos Cookies. Funny story I was telling my former co-worker I went here, and he said that he went to high school with the owner. What a small world. This is a super small shop. You walk in and that's it. You have the walls filled with biscoitos and a dessert case to your right. It's worth trying and make sure to put in your order if you want a malassado. They only make them on the weekends.
