    Almond croissant
    Nicole H.

    GK Pastry was a lovely find! I went early in the morning and they had a variety of croissants to choose from, jar cakes, breads, etc. I grabbed an almond croissant, chocolate croissants, and a pistachio croissant. I didn't catch his name, but the gentleman who helped me today was kind and had great energy for a Monday morning! I didn't notice any seating inside, but that would have been a nice addition. The croissants themselves were really yummy! The almonds were nice and toasty and the croissant was lightly buttery and flaky. My coworkers enjoyed the other croissants and commented how good they were.

    A bit hyped? Maybe. Maybe not... I found GK Pastry to be very good, but a bit on the Pricey side. GK Pastry is definitely a bakery, at first glance I thought it was a cafe, but nope. There is no place inside to sit and enjoy the baked goods, grab your order to go. However, there is plenty of room for one to wait while your order is being prepped. Plenty of parking available in the plaza, so no worries there. #FocacciaEats: ~ Pistachio Dubai Chocolate Focaccia - 4/5 Brilliant interpretation of the trending Viral Dubai Chocolate theme. I haven't seen a Dubai Chocolate Focaccia until I devoured this. Very well done, not too sweet with a balanced amount of Pistachio and Chocolate. ~ Shiitake Mushroom Focaccia - 4/5 Another very good Focaccia. This is basically a slice of a Shiitake Mushroom Focaccia Pizza. Tastes exactly as advertised. I don't mind stopping by again if I'm in the area.

    Tiramisu Jar Cake (8oz)
    Diana D.

    I stopped by here to check out the bakery and grab one of the jar cakes. This is a nice little store. They have a variety of breads, treats, and jar cakes. The person at the counter was very friendly. He offered me tastings of a few different jar cakes and shared details about them. I decided to get the tiramisu jar cake which was really good--rich and flavorful. Although a bit pricy, the portion was huge. It lasted for 3 days, but don't be surprised if you finish it in a single sitting, it is that good.

    Cinnamon Bun
    Jacqueline Z.

    Small bakery with amazing pastries, focaccia, and jar cakes! I first came here and got a slice of the focaccia of the day (which was a tomato and cheese one) and a pistachio croissant. The person working there asked us if we wanted it heated in advance, which was nice since we were about to head to the airport afterwards. The focaccia was delicious and soft. The pistachio croissant was divine. Good amount of crushed pistachios on top and the texture was great. I also picked up a jar cake, which I ate the next morning before leaving for a flight. You can definitely split the 8 oz one in at least 2 servings... eating it all in one serving was a bit too much, since it can be quite heavy. This one is definitely on the sweeter side since it's more of a cake. I came back again close to closing and got a cinnamon bun and pistachio croissant. I did come in with the expectation that they might be a bit stale since I came so late, but they were surprisingly not! The cinnamon bun was delicious and only $3.50. The pistachio croissant tasted as good as the first time. I'll definitely be back again soon - I want to try some of their other pastries and their bread!

    It was a smaller shop with little to no seating, some seating outside. We were greeted nicely and the worker explained the various breads, breads with toppings (think pizza) and some cookies. We ended up getting a sourdough margarita piece, some sourdough bread sticks, and gluten free cookies. The sourdough slice was soft, airy & light. It was a little greasy but not bad. I was not a fan of the cookie. They were fine just not as flavorful as I would have liked. Overall it was a good place to grab something quick and on the go.

    Soft and edible sourdough bread. Every bite we took starting from the samplers in the jars next to back wall and actual loafs we brought home truly enjoyable. A good friend of ours recommended this place and we just had to try it out. The lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful. She also had me try the pistachio cookies just to make sure I had a sample before buying and I enjoyed it as well. In addition to the half loafs of bread (also can be sold as whole), I brought a crab focaccia and apricot-raisin oatmeal cookies, we bought half loaves of tomato, jalapeño and country style bread. The store is modern and menu easy to read. Their displays of bread behind the glass counter is joy for a bread lover like myself- like a kid in a toy store. They also have discounted hours from 6-8pm where the breads go on sale 30% off. Can't wait to get back here again when we need to reload on our bread needs but for now I'm going to take another bite after I type the last word on my review.

    Hazelnut chocolate swirl
    GiGi G.

    Delicious focaccia, pastries, bread, desserts and coffee. No seating in the bakery so pretty much just a togo option, although Cuesta park is nearby for an impromptu picnic. I tried the hazelnut chocolate swirl ($4, one of the least expensive items), chocolate croissant, pistachio pastry and one of the focaccias as well as a drip coffee. Total was almost $40 so it adds up fast!

    Gluten-Free pistachio with heavy whipping cream, eggs, pistachios...
    Jaye J.

    Excellent customer service. Delicious gluten-free pistachio cake in a jar with heavy whipping cream, eggs, pistachios, white Belgian chocolate, almond flour, cane sugar, mascarpone, honey, oatmeal, avocado oil and vanilla beans.

    Lots of pictures taken. Go ahead and drool. Everything delicious. If I had known they gave out samples of cookies, I would have asked. They had samples of the 5 breads. I tasted the tomato and cheese and was so good that I had to buy. The cream puffs were on sale since they were day old. They were amazing. The cream inside is addicting. The plain hugh croissant was telling me to buy it. Flaky and doughy, and bread inside. That beef samsa (reminds me of Indian samosa but not fried) was so tasty. I was asked if I wanted heated up and I declined. I sat in the car and ate it. It was so crunchy and full of beef filling. Good flavor. I am glad i don't live nearby. I would be broke. Lovely gentleman helping me. I warned him I was not ready. They had salads in the front refrigerator. I'm going to fast from baked goods for a month. I think I can last about a week.

    The focaccia here was so good! I tried their mushroom, which had a good balanced mix of cheese and chopped mushrooms, though offering a side of tomato sauce for dipping would make it even better. The pear and blackberry dessert focaccia was a good combo, though personally I found the Nutella and sweetness a bit generous - but those who enjoy sweeter treats will certainly appreciate it. The bread itself had my ideal focaccia texture since I like high hydration bread - moist with a fluffy interior and crispy exterior. While the prices might seem high at first glance, the portions are very filling and worth the cost. One order of the focaccia was more than enough to fill me up, but I couldn't get a entre focaccia without also getting a dessert one. The service was friendly and attentive. I'm already planning to return!

    Delicious bakery - I believe they also have a stand at a farmers market! I got a Shiitake mushroom & gruyere cheese focaccia which was delicious. The bread was very fluffy and it was filled with shiitake and cheese. Attached to a easy parking lot.

    sourdough multigrain bread

    discovered this bakery while doing my TSA pre-renewal next-door. They're very friendly and a great assortment of items. The butter croissant was huge and only five dollars. It was flaky and crispy so good. I also got two packs of the oatmeal cookies because I like the variety will slice into my sourdough multigrain bread tonight. Highly recommend. items are all baked on site.

    Amazing monkey bread. Pistachio croissant, almond croissant, plain and lots of chocolate croissants
    Lawrence M.

    Amazing new family run, neighborhood bakery! Where to start? Their take on monkey bread--sweet and sticky, nice cinnamon flavor. Surprise surprise, gooey walnuts at the bottom! The focaccia varieties is pretty outrageous too. The Viral Dubai chocolate is a crazy pistachio encrusted dark chocolate drizzled concoction. Ate the whole good sized hunk in one go, it was that viral. The berry focaccia is good as well. Truthfully, its big enough to feed a couple people, if you're into that. The croissants--plain, and chocolate. Nicely done, with nice swirled chocolate on the flakey outside, soft on the inside. They have napoleon cakes too. With and without pistachio. Highly recommend either one. Also these amazing cakes in a jar. Tiramisu to go, just bring a spoon. And the bread! They have jalapeno, sourdough, and our favorite, country. Bring a good sized loaf home today, but it won't last long. Especially if you come mid morning, when the loaves are warm out of the oven.

    In-house made chocolates!

    Super nice family run. Chef in back continuously making magic so things come out fresh all day. Kids (twins?) split their time manning the front and building out new store downtown Los Altos. Can't wait for that!

    I came by the Chinese bakery but they were closed. Maison Alyzee was next door and had no line. It…read morewas the first time I could go in easily and see a full line of desserts they had. I love desserts and the French are number one in that category. I came from Yutori after buying so much that I squeezed in Madison's dessert, Padova Mandarin Yuzu. The clerk said it needs to refrigerate promptly or else eat right away. I had no choice but to stop by the library's park and eat that along with my tuna egg sando from Yutori. The Yuzu dessert was cool and refreshing. It's good to pair with tea. I'll have to come back and try more desserts. They all look so good to try.

Some of them don't even go to any other bakery besides this one and as such, I was excited to try their pastries. I got a combination of both basic items such as their croissant and their more decorative items such as their Paris Brest. The fundamental difference between American pastries and their French counterparts is that the latter are much less heavy and sweet and in that sense, Maison Alyzee does a good job. However, that quality really isn't that important to me unless I'm making baked goods at home or having them at a friend's. When it comes to a bakery, I care more about nuanced flavors, tastes, and textures and in those aspects, this place didn't really blow me away. To put it this way, I would rather travel to Midwife and the Baker and have one of their croissants at a cheaper price even if it may be more of a sugar bomb. I was actually contemplating knocking off another star because of how much the pastries cost an arm and a leg (almost $10+ for some of the individual items). In the end, I decided against it because this bakery is the first I've visited where the pastries both look nice AND taste good (Paris Baguette and Alexander's Patisserie, take note). Overall, this place is good if you are looking for pastries that both look and taste nice. Perhaps my palate is just not sophisticated enough but I just don't get any unique taste that warrants them being the most authentic French patisserie in the area. Personally, I would visit Midwife, Craftsman, and (soon) Arsicault in Palo Alto to get a more "quality' pastry.

I have already been to Covour a handful of times, mostly on weekdays, where I'm usually planted there for a few hours to do some work or study.

The space itself has a good number of tables to work or study from, along with great lighting. I really appreciate the selection of drinks they have, ranging from fun flavored lattes like tiramisu and burnt brown sugar to matchas, hojichas, and classic cafe staples like americanos and flat whites. Everything I've had here has been delicious and always hits the spot. They also have a range of food and toasts you can order. I recently got the ricotta and honey toast, which was delicious and light! Heads up, though, as expected, they do run low on stock later in the day. I came around 2 PM, and there were maybe four baked goods left. Overall, it's a great choice, and if you're in the area, definitely check them out.
