    The best all butter croissant heavenly creation in life
    Bailey B.

    Be so careful at this place I took one bite of the most amazing regular croissant I've ever had (now mind you, I've been to France) and OH MY GOSH. The receptors in my brain started screaming for joy. Then I had the sweet muffin-esque croissant creation and- *review can no longer continue as author has left and gone to heaven. Try this bakery at your own risk, lest ye be transported to heaven as well

    Chocolate chocolate croissant and cardamom bun
    Noah L.

    Really really good breakfast pastries. Not many dessert pastries but I loved the chocolate croissant with chocolate dough. It was a little savory which was wonderful for me. The cardamom bun was really good too. Not much space for seating at all more of a hole in the wall pastry counter. Good service.

    Morning bun

    I used to see this place in Dane county farmers market. So decided to go to their brick and mortar store. The place is small. They also have a cafe next door. Morning glory muffin was my favorite item here. Morning bun was good as always. Almond croissant was the third item. It was good as well.

    Visited Far Breton Bakery for the first time for an early morning snack. I don't normally commute to the east side, but was especially excited to check it out. The bakery is a cute, small, and homey space that's next to a sit in cafe / diner. I got the chocolate pain and a spiced sugar apple pastry. Both tasted good and priced at $5 a piece. The chocolate pain tasted surprisingly savory (due to being a bit salty). The staff were friendly and polite. Overall, would return!

    Saturday morning assortment

    I can't believe Far Breton has been open for a year and I am just discovering it now. I had a pastry from them for the first time last weekend and am now hooked. Hands down - best bakery in Madison.

    Sunday Morning food cart and the owner. Schedule is 8:30 am until she sells out, or 12:30 pm. whichever comes first.

    Far Breton Bakery has the most mouth watering pastries in Madison yet!! We are so lucky to have this talented baker in Madison. Today we purchased all the items pictured. It's so tempting to eat some on the way home, when better though enjoyed with coffee. The morning buns are 4/$10, and hold up very well in the freezer well if you want to treat yourself once a week with one batch. This Sunday morning pick up is one of three ways to get the goodies. Schedule is 8:30 am every Sunday until she sells out or 12:30 pm, whichever comes sooner. Market Pantry also does delivery, on Thursdays. The pastries are baked same day. Her website also has a way to order for pick-up on Fridays. It would be a treat to come here anytime, but it's always extra special to bring visitors in town here. I've brought folks from Chicago sand Berkeley to visit and both agreed these baked goods rival their favorite local pastry havens.

    The hours of operation.

    Small bakery with delicious pastries. Limited hours, but worth the trip. Loved everything we tried and will return often!

    Tried croissants and they were dense, doughy and under cooked. The pain au chocolaté a bit better, but very surprised at the poor quality.

    I visited Batch from out of town recently, and after trying their pastries concurred that I could…read moreabsolutely move to Madison with this kind of bakery around. It's definitely a storefront with no seating, but if you don't mind standing there's an area where you could eat at a counter. I arrived at 9am on a Sunday and by the time I finished ordering, a line had formed out the door. I would definitely recommend getting here early; however, it's also the kind of place where you can't go wrong with anything you order. After a lot of waffling, I ordered the lemon currant scone, peach muffin, and ham and Gruyère bun. The scone was super buttery with a crunchy exterior and soft interior, with the most lovely glaze and lemon zest throughout. It definitely screamed summer. The peach muffin was super light and airy, and not at all too sweet. The crunchy cinnamon topping was absolute perfection and brought the perfect texture contrast. I really enjoyed the bun, which was like a mini sourdough loaf. I do think there could have been a bit more ham, but the caramelized onions throughout made sure that every bite was super flavorful. Next time I'm in town, you better believe Batch will be my first stop!

    I missed so much the trilayer lemon cake from Manna's Cafe that I bought their cookbook. While just…read moreas flavorful as my memory, I'm no baker and the cakes looked like sh*t. Thankfully BATCH BAKEHOUSE makes a lovely one complete with fanciful script. it's now our go-to for birthdays. Every single thing on their menu is yummy-for-your-tummy. Leave the baking to BATCH BAKEHOUSE. Nobody wants to keep their eyes closed when they're eatin.

    Madison sourdough made it to our list of places to visit by virtue of their morning buns, which I…read moreread about during my research for what to eat in the area. We stopped off on a Sunday morning before leaving Madison to head to the Dells. We were able to snag a parking spot on the street pretty much right out front of the place but I did notice that there seem to be a parking lot next-door. we were intimidated by the queue that had formed and was literally no exaggeration, "out the door". I wouldn't say that it moved quickly per se, but quick enough. The time spent on the queue is good for catching up on emails, some self reflection, or perusing the menus that they have stacked on the counter. We finally made it to the register. I ordered a ginger pistachio Matcha (iced of course, in this heat) and GF a banana something latte. The morning bun was fantastic. It almost reminds me of a cruffin. Maybe lighter? It wasn't overwhelming, it was flaky and delicate with a muffin-esque but lighter booty. A delightful breakfast snack. The matcha was out of this world. Such a unique and delicious flavor. It lasted two seconds. GF enjoyed her latte. It wasn't as sweet as I would have liked but for her, someone who doesn't like sweet coffee beverages, it was perfect. I can see why this place is so popular.

    I'm always on the hunt for a good bakery and couldn't pass up the chance to visit Madison…read moreSourdough! From creative baked goods to yummy breakfast plates, this is a great stop if you're craving some comfort food or a sweet treat. The interior was cute with a casual vibe- we saw plenty of guests catching up with friends over brunch and others getting some solo work done over coffee. You order at the front, and although it was very busy, things moved pretty quickly. We tried the biscuit breakfast sandwich and hot coffee. The bacon and eggs on the sandwich were perfectly cooked, and I loved that it came with jam to balance out the savory flavors and rich cheddar. The biscuit itself was tasty but dry- I think a generous pat of butter and a bit more jam would have done the trick. It came with a tangy arugula salad that lightened up the meal nicely. The coffee was on the watery side but had a good flavor. I do wish we'd picked up some pastries or bread for the road, as I tried some of their sourdough on a sandwich at another local restaurant and it was absolutely delicious. Overall, we had a good experience and I would definitely stop by to try more of the menu!
