I found out about this bakery back in 2023 ish. The pastries are good one of the best in the Pasadena area. But the drinks are just not it or aren't trained correctly. One time we ordered an ice coffee and taste delicious, the next time we ordered it tasted like chocolate milk. Overall pretty good service here. And the place is a cute hang out spot for desserts or brunch with friends. read more

I came here early on a Saturday morning. Analisette was the one that took care of me. 10/10 service. They have some ice cream on display, but they're the closest to the window? That can't be wise, especially considering how much heat enters via those windows during the summer. That aside, I was able to try their Nutella Croissant. The croissant was rich and generous without being overwhelming. You could almost say it hits a SWEET balance between rich and modest (pun totally intended). They also have fruit-shaped pastries that are going viral online, but I decided to skip on those for now. Everything looked fresh and the croissant was absolutely fresh, delicious and totally worth the price of admission. read more

We didn't try everything, but we tried a good sampling of everything. The verdict - let's go again! The croissant was buttery and flakey. The cheese roll was a good afternoon snack. Just sweet enough. The mango was delightful. A nice, sweet treat. We ate the mango cake at the bakery and enjoyed a few iced beverages - iced coffee and iced chocolate. The air con, the iced drinks, the mango cake and people watching made for a lovely afternoon. Try it! enjoy! read more

Old Town Pasadena, California. Next to Nana's Green Tea, Delight is A very good French bakery, no breads, but Delight feeds the pastry hunger in me -- all the pastries, cakes and gelati are excellent. There is a smallish macaron counter with popular flavors and can be boxed up to bring home. The house made sandwiches (focaccia), breakfasts and lunch items are very good to excellent also and with great prices. With about 15 tables (a couple of tables for larger groups), there's a steady stream of people here and it would be a matter of time when lines will form out the door. Service is super attentive. The minute you come in the person behind the counter comes to assist. Ohhh almost forgot, savory pastries (caprese and artichoke and cheese) are super well-made and the crusts delightfully light and crispy :-) I keep coming back. End of Yelp. read more

Sooo glad we gave this place another try!!! Fabulous!!! We ordered the pistachio matcha croissant, the cinnamon roll, and the lychee tart. Cinnamon roll wasn't line Cinnabon ok don't expect some big fluffy roll but it was very cinnamony and frosting was great. The croissant was beautiful and flavor was subtle but there. Very flaky and buttery and just delicious!! The tart was my absolute flavor!! Felt super dense at first but when you bite into it, the almond, raspberry, and lychee flavors are all there and so light and beautiful. We wished we ordered more because we just want to try everything!! read more

I found this bakery completely by happenstance when I went to the new 'viral' Nana's Green Tea next door and didn't want to join the long queue...I decided to check out this place instead. The owner should thank Nana's for a lot of 'accidental' new customers. As a mango dessert maven I was delighted to find at least 3 kinds of mango concoctions. I got the "Mango Delight" (1/2 mango and 1/2 white chocolate mousse) it was so yummy and refreshing! I wish they also had mango eclair then I would come here every week! Will try their gelato next time. read more

We were on our way somewhere else when I smelled something buttery in the air. I told my partner, "I have to eat this smell," and we followed our noses to Delight Pastry. The large display of pastries is sure to dazzle, and we spend a good minute looking over the multitude of offerings in the case. Service was fast and efficient, and we sat ourselves. CAPRESE DANISH: 5/5. Perfectly balanced flavors. Tomatoes were fresh and the balsamic was bright. HAM AND CHEESE CROISSANT: 4/5. I know it would have been SO good if it were warmed up and the cheese were a little melty. KOUIGN AMANN: 3/5. My favorite pastry. Perhaps a personal preference, but I wish the sugar were a little more caramelized. It also was not as rich as I am accustomed to this pastry being. read more

At Delight Pastry .... wow. The smoked salmon croissant stopped me in my tracks.. flaky, buttery layers topped with delicate smoked salmon, fresh dill, pickled onion, and a cloud of whipped cream that somehow ties it all together. Savory, bright, and balanced in that effortless way that makes you pause after the first bite. The salad was crisp and refreshing, a perfect counterpoint, and the cold oat-milk latte was smooth and well pulled.. The kind of drink that quietly tells you they care about the details. The place was super clean with a lot of comfortable seating.. A Simple lunch, done exceptionally well. Perhaps perfection. read more

Delight Pastry comes to my rescue! I forgot to get a cake for my birthday and they had same day pick up options of their 3 best selling cakes. I went with Berry Delight which I didn't expect to like as much as I did: my guests loved the frosting (and this is a group that prefers less sweet desserts) and I found the vanilla cake to be perfect. Delight always has a special place in my heart! read more

Absolutely love this place! The transplants took over the neighboring bakeries so I went to Delight. I needed a quick bite so I tried their Jalapeño and cheddar scone. It's been a day and I can't stop thinking about it. I'm going back to get a bunch of them. They had the spiral chocolate croissant on their IG so I decided to try it. It was incredible. Inside it had a light chocolate custard or pudding. Not sure but it was delicious. I'm kind of a fatty so I wish it had Nutella instead. But it might be too rich. Service is always on point. Other times I've been and they are always kind and helpful. Lots of great spots to sit and eat. read more

Cute pastry spot in old town Pasadena. Upbeat music played in the background. Service was great, very friendly staff. I ordered the mango delight; the center of it was filled with chucks of mango, very yummy, a little too sweet for me but still good. The outer layer was crunchy and thin, like mango chocolate. Love the different textures when biting into it. Ordered Napoleon for my mom and the chocolate heaven for my daughter. Lots of options to choose from. Also got their Nutella croissant and ham and cheese croissant for breakfast hehe read more

TLDR: freshly made croissants priced around $6-8. Some hits and misses depending on what you order -- the matcha pistachio croissant is a standout, while the Nutella and tiramisu lean too sweet or pricey, limited street parking We went on a Monday midmorning and happy to find only a short line. Everything is made in-house, and the croissants are large and look beautiful in the display case. Prices are on the higher end for pastries ($6-8), but maybe that's the norm? The Nutella croissant was too sweet for me (3.5/5), though my husband enjoyed it, highly recommend to warm it up so it's crispy and soft. The matcha pistachio croissant, fresh out of the oven, was easily the best one we tried (4/5): buttery, flaky, and not overly sweet. I just wish it had a stronger matcha flavor since it leaned more pistachio-almond than matcha. The tiramisu wasn't worth it, small portion, not the most appealing presentation, and almost $10, which felt steep. The pistachio spiral croissant was tasty but dense and heavy, best shared and reheated for the right texture. Service was quick and friendly, and while parking is limited to street spots or parking structure across the street, it's a decent spot to grab a treat if you're in the area. read more

There loads of structure and street parking to walk here. The inside is clean and low volume. It's a good place to hangout with friends. The staff are nice and friendly. I've tried the pastries here a few times. It has always been good. I do like their flavor options, especially lychee. The lychee raspberry tart was delicious. Not too sweet and you get both soft/creamy texture along with the crunchy crust. I haven't tried the sandwiches yet but I'd like to someday. The prices are a bit high, but it's worth a chance. read more

So yummy!! I came to pick up a cake - which I highly recommend - and grab a bite to eat for lunch. Great food and super delicious. I ordered the Caprese which was served with a small salad. The focaccia bread was crisp and soft. The tomatoes, basil and fresh mozzarella was excellent. The sandwich has a pesto spread that reminded me of a Caprese sandwich I ordered back when Louise's trattoria was still in Old Pasadena. The location is perfect right on the corner and walkable from local offices on the area. They have a very nice and clean café. The staff is sweet too. They are very helpful to offer advice on what you maybe interested in ordering. Seems like they have a following as a few customers came in for a coffee and goodies. read more

Saw this on my Maps and was very intrigued, so I had to stop by! It's a little hidden but the inside is very cute and leaning on a girly aesthetic. There was still quite a bit of pastries even around 1:30pm. I got a regular croissant, matcha pistacho croissant, and raspberry croissant. Total came out to around 15 or so? I asked for the regular croissant to warmed up--took 3 minutes, but it was very good! I felt indifferent about the matcha pistachio croissant. However, my coworkers got some macaroons and enjoyed them! read more

Banger. Banger. Banger. Love this place. Koign-amman was a little more flakey than I've seen elsewhere but really good.

Best pastries and coffee in Pasadena. And I've tried them all at this point. Skip any of the viral places and stick with this classic. The lychee and rose croissant and rose and pistachio danish were excellent. Lattes were hot and comforting. Will be back over and over again! read more

Ordered a smorgasbord of different pastries from here and they were all genuinely so good, the cinnamon roll was probably the best I've ever had and the strawberry cruffin was incredible as well. The only thing I guess I can be a bit critical about was the lack of savory options but other than that, I definitely recommend. read more

This one is a tough one to write. I had such high hopes for this place by scrolling through Yelp and Instagram, and I made sure to make this one of my stops after the 8 hour trip to the greater LA area. So to start off, my family and I got here at 8:30 in the morning, 30 minutes after they open. We were on a tight schedule and just passing through, so the plan was to try some beautiful looking pastries then continue on our journey. When we first walked in what was immediately apparent was that no preparation was done to actually have the store ready for customers, even 30 minutes after opening, it's not like we were knocking on the door at 8am. The selection was quite depressing, the cases were 80% still empty, none of the chocolate dipped options were out, and not a single spiral croissant, which is really why we made the stop. Then on the service, the younger woman working the register was absolutely not friendly, she seemed annoyed with us being there that early as she was still trying to prep the case herself. I get that and we were patient as well and let her finish what she was doing. I asked about if there's any spiral croissants getting put out, she told us those aren't available till 9:30 or 10.... That's just bad business honestly, you should be ready for your customers when you open, I've never worked at any Business in my life to where you get to show up at the exact same time as opening and set the store up with customers already trying to buy your product. But again, I'm a pretty patient person, so I kind of just went "ah bummer, well then let me get some of these and some of these and two lattes." That is where it continues, the lattes themselves just tasted like hot milk, not even a slight taste of the espresso. We actually ended up throwing these away after leaving and stopping at a Starbucks, not even finishing them. Then the pastries, they were just OK, they look beautiful, but they just taste just fine. Same with the cake that we bought, that was about the caliber of a grocery store cake. The one that we did all enjoy was the pistachio, but again it would've been nice to see the chocolate dipped options. The one that really drove this down was the Spanakopitia. I usually like these, and to be extremely harsh, but equally honest it smelled like vomit, I tasted it anyways, and it tasted exactly how it smelled. I don't know what the heck was wrong with this thing, maybe it was from the day before, maybe there was an issue making the filling, but this didn't even stay in my mouth. The amount of good reviews this place has is shocking to me, it leads me to believe that maybe we were just there on a really off day, or maybe there was call ins of the staff, or other issues. But we truly did not have a good experience, if you open at 8, you need to be ready for customers at 8. read more

First time visiting Delight Pastry and we were very impressed! We picked up a box with an assortment of pastries and desserts, and every single item was fantastic. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. There was a great variety, so everyone was able to find something they loved. It was a huge hit with the family, and not a single thing was left over. We'll definitely be coming back to try even more. Highly recommend Delight Pastry if you're looking for delicious treats and quality baked goods! read more

Love coming here for the pastries! My go-to orders are the pain au choclate, plain croissants, hazelnut chocolate filled croissants, anything seasonal they may have, or anything with berries! The croissants are flaky, light and soft on the inside. The ones with berry and chocolate are not overly sweet which is a big plus. This is such a nice quiet, lowkey spot that is great for a catch up session with a friend. A friend of mines told me about this place and it was perfect to grab a bite and coffee. There is a full menu with more items but I have only ordered the croissants. I did see alot of desserts and macaroons that I will have to try next time! Drink wise, they have different coffees and teas. I ordered the chai lattee and added lavendar flavor. It was pretty good! Nice and light and paired well with my croissant! Service is quick and kind. Parking wise, there is street parking but since this is located in Old Town, parking garages can be found in the surrounding area. This is close to Colorado so it's a nice area to walk around and stop by. They do not validate parking. I believe I spent a flat $5 fee for parking at a garage about a block away. May be a little pricey (I spent $28.75 for 2 plain croissants, 1 pain au choclat, 1 berry croissant, 1 lemon meringue croissant) but it's pretty great quality. read more

I've been to Delight Pastry many times in the past year. Time to leave them a great review that they deserve. Though nothing is vegan (as far as know), their pastries are amazing: Wide selection, unique, distinct flavor profiles, and very yummy. They often have new creations. They also offer savory breakfast items, though I don't have as much experience with those items. Their coffee is excellent and strong. I also love the pot of tea option when I want something lighter. Staff are always friendly and attentive. The dining area is clean, bright, and spacious. The furniture is comfortable, and they do have some plugs if you need them. I know some local coffee shops carry their pastries, which should give you a hint as to their quality. I hope they continue to do well so I can keep enjoying their ambiance and pastries! read more

I stopped by Delight Pastry to try their famous spiral croissant and was disappointed at first when I saw the placard in the display case with no pastries in front of it. Assuming they were sold out for the day, I scanned the display case to see what else would be a good alternative. Fortunately, my wife asked the person behind the counter about the spiral croissants, and we discovered they actually had them in the back! We ended up getting the pistachio cream-stuffed spiral croissant, and since I was in the mood for something savory, we also picked up a spanakopita pastry. The pastries here live up to the hype. This was my first time trying a spiral croissant, and it was incredible -- deliciously crunchy with just the right amount of filling so it doesn't spill out with every bite. The pistachio flavor was a little subtle, but still enjoyable. The savory spanakopita was beautifully made, with perfectly flaky pastry and spinach strands on the outside. The only thing that would've made this pastry better if is I was able to get it toasted up. I was pleasantly surprised that there were no lines and plenty of seating inside. It's definitely a great spot to hang-out or get some work done while enjoying their coffee and pastries. read more

I wanted to order a graduation cake for my son. We have ordered a couple of Birthday Cakes for him in the past from here because he loves their cake. I went in to order but was told I had to an online inquiry. This must be the new way to ghost clients. Anyway, I asked the employee if they could do Nutella before I left and she said yes, but go through the portal. I did and they got back to me and asked what I want. I told them I was less concerned about the decorations than I was on the flavors. And then nothing, no price, no communication, no nothing. It takes a few minutes to say we can't accommodate you, but how about this? I would have preferred this conversation in person and would have put the deposit/paid for the entire cake when I had gone in, but it was not possible. Too bad, I will order a cake from somewhere else as my son graduates a week from today and there are other things I need to take care of. But big bummer!!! read more

Delight Pastry is known for the European- style pastries and cakes. It is a family owned business. The place is very delightful, well lit, and nicely decorated. I had dinner in a nearby restaurant. I walked around after I left the restaurant and I saw Delight Pastry. It looks very pleasant from outside,I didn't hesitate for a second to go in and try their baked goods. I really loved the vibe of the place. There were many indoor seating.The place was very clean. The menu included;a wide variety of croissants, pastries, croffles, slices cakes and cakes. I ordered some croissants and sliced cakes to go. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. I got the following; -Rose Lychee Croissant - Ube croissant - Pistachio Croissant - Opera cake - Napolean - Chocolate Mousse Their croissants were very flaky , buttery and layered. It had perfect flavor for Ube, pistachio, and Rose Lychee. The opera cake was layered perfectly. It had the equal proportion of sponge cake, ganache, the right kick of coffee , butter cream and finally topped with the delicious chocolate glaze. Absolutely delicious. Napolean was flaky filled with light vanilla cream. It was perfect Chocolate Mousse, had layers of chocolate cake, chocolate Mousse, and a crunchy chocolate layer at the bottom. Definitely a great choice for chocolate lover. The service was outstanding! I love their Fuchsia box, it looks vibrant. It is such a great bakery place in Pasadena. I will come back soon to try more of their pastries and sliced cakes. read more
