Chefs sandwich of the day, danish, hot chocolate (French style) and a lychee raspberry tart!
Kunaal K.

Honestly the best pastries in town. It doesn't even taste vegan. But being vegetarian for over 26 years, this is the best spot in Pasadena!! Get their sandwiches of the day and you won't be disappointed. The chef is so French and always has his chef hat on. Highly recommend!!!

Mushroom tart
Sharona M.

So happy to have found this amazing vegan bakery! It is truly a wonder when you go in. I found it very try difficult to choose because everything looked so wonderful! The staff was very helpful and we ended up choosing a savory mushroom tart, spinach quiche and a piece of focaccia. The quiche was amazing and made with their in house egg substitute! The mushroom tart was also incredible with perfectly laminated dough and texture! The focaccia was not good. The dough recipe needs to be perfected because it was heavy, dense and under cooked. This is a super easy fix. I hope they will look into that. The inside is super cute and shares a space with a wine bar next door so you can eat inside or outside. The outside area is nice and covered but it's on the street and has VErY uncomfortable chairs. The kind that dig into your legs. They use super cute mismatched plates and tea cups which add to the whimsy. Overall amazing place! Definitely recommend!

Pistachio Eclair
Rachel S.

How lucky am I to live in a timeline with ID-Eclair? I've enjoyed their desserts at vegan street market pop ups and decided that Valentine's Day was the perfect time to stop in their brick and mortar for some treats. It's a sweet set up, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. There's a massive pastry window to entice you as you wait ~ if there's a line, there definitely was for Valentine's Day ~ with grab-and-go gift and drink options on the side (truffles, chocolates, jams, housemade butter). Everything looked so good when we arrived that we decided to get savory food and treats. Grilled Cheese: I can't resist a grilled cheese. Three layers of flavorful vegan/ plant based cheeses gooey between two gorgeous pieces of charcoal loaf bread, and a side of delicious fresh arugula salad. This was exactly what you'd want from a grilled cheese but the most elevated version, at a super fair price. I'll be dreaming about this. I just wish they had a consistent tomato soup on because I can't resist a dip! Egg Sandwich (daily special): crispy bread loaded with housemade tofu (I believe) egg scramble, mixed greens, tomatoes, and delicious sauce. Side salad on the side. Love how many greens and protein is in this. Extremely elevated. Bread is buttery goodness. Pistachio Eclair: yes please. I could drink the filling. All you'd ever want from a pistachio pastry. Almond Croissant: crispy, buttery, nutty goodness. Highly recommend. Chef Special "Love" Eclair: delicious berry goodness. Fresh and sweet and satisfying, sandwiched between an exquisite macaroon Cortadito: like a flat white, DELICIOUS! The coffee is strong and though I drink fast, it seemed to last forever. Creamy, strong coffee punch flavor. The staff works so hard, I'm in awe of the pace they keep up and the quality of ingredients, flavors, and service. There's plenty of seating for a constantly rotating customer base and the street side chairs and tables and open door make it feel like a warm and inviting patisserie. This is great for a pre-order, pickup, delivery, friends-gathering, date, treat run, or simply a coffee pickup in the morning. I love it and can't wait to go back.

Blueberry danish, hot cocoa

ID-eclair is awesome and they're as good as any of the trending bakeries in Pasadena, but without the long lines. They are tucked away on Green Street on the corner of Pasadena Ave. Check them out next time you're in Old Town.

Clever name. Regrettably, I Declare this is not the best eclair I've ever had. Maybe it's because I came near closing (4pm), the pistachio and chocolate eclairs were dry and not fresh at all, so disappointing (also the pistacho tastes more minty than pistchio.) Will probably go back one early morning to try their drinks and other pastries.

4/5: fully vegan bakery? Say less! ID Eclair is simply the vegan bakery all the plant based foodies out in LA have been waiting for. They have a spread of savory items, decadent desserts, soups, sandwiches, teas, and coffees. For our birthdays, my also plant based bestie and I celebrated with a full spread of baked goods. We got their soup, grilled cheese sandwich, teas, and sweets (see pictures below), and all together our total came up to ~$90 post tax and tip for the both of us. Service was rather quick for all that we ordered. My favorite item was probably their tarts, but I definitely would not order the grilled cheese again. This would definitely have been a five star review, but possibly because we had all these in one go, it felt a little too greasy and heavy on the stomach. Still, I'm certain that non plant based eaters would find ID Eclair's food tasty as well, and if they didn't know, I'd suspect that many wouldn't have guessed that everything was vegan. Overall, I'd happily stop by again to pick up some delicious baked goods when I'm feeling a hankering for sweets or savory breads! Everything else: Parking in Old Town Pasadena can be rather difficult so plan accordingly. The store is kept well lit, clean, and decorated with modern aesthetics. It's a nice space but fills up quickly. There's also a bar in the back with additional seating.

Raspberry Croissant
KK H.

My new obsession is the Raspberry Croissant. I'd get new item which is Cream brûlée Cruffin. The service is always great here & fast. Lovely vibe in the store. I go every week now. Can't stop going there even though I practice intermittent fasting so I can't eat it right away most of the time when I visit there.

Swedish Croissant and Romy's Hot Chocolate with Whipped Chocolate
Shian L.

I first tried this place on 2/10 for my birthday and ordered the Tea Time which was wonderful! It was nice to enjoy a high tea that's vegan and the tea selection was nice (I really enjoyed the Holiday Roobios tea). Since then, I've been back every 2-3 days lol, I would've been there this week if they weren't having their week vacay. The staff are friendly, I only wish there was a bit more inside seating but there's always outside available and fresh air is always nice.

Dense macaron.
Christina C.

The customer service is sublime! If you're having a bad day, come here to cheer up. The coffee is great, maybe the best thing on the menu?! The Napoleon was delicious with a flaky crisp pastry. The eclairs are a bit stodgy, in the words of Paul Hollywood. The cream in the pistachio one tasted a bit artificial. The macarons are a bit dense, not airy as you'd expect. Once I get to try the croissant, I think I can decide for sure how I feel about this vegan bakery.

Fruit Tarts (gluten free)
Victoria S.

Yum! Finally found a bakery with delicious gluten free fruit tarts! They're made fresh daily. My husband bought me the strawberry tart & the raspberry tart. I loved both of them, can't wait to try more items on the menu. They can custom make a bigger fruit tart cake if you order ahead. They also had food items & drinks with indoor seating.

Chocolate Croissant and mushroom cheese pastry
Jacqueline T.

ID-Eclair has a great variety of pastry. I volunteered at my daughter's school where ID-Eclair provided pastries for the school's concession sale during a musical show. I tried the chocolate croissants and the mushroom cheese pastry. Both are perfect compliments to a cup of good coffee. I can't wait to try other pastries and their coffee.

What a gem for Pasadena. This is my second time at IDEclair, but first time ordering a tea service. We tried the black tea Montagne Bleu (I believe that's the spelling) and it was yummy with or without milk. The first tier had a spinach soup that was delicious! We also had an egg (vegan) toast and beet toast, both good, would have loved more. The other tiers had a selection of the current sweets, topping with a macarons (tangerine and black tea being my favorite), and we ordered a few additional items (croissant and a peach danish like pastry) as well just because everything looked so good. If I had all the money in the world I would be here often, for now it's only on special occasions. I hope to try the tiramisu soon!

I WFH so I wanted to try this cafe finally. Staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about their pastries. I was given a free cookie sample with my hot chocolate and I had no clue this was a vegan bakery. My table neighbors were sooo happy with their soup too.

Vanilla and strawberry macaroons, pistachio eclair

I love a tasty, decadent treat but these were insanely expensive, borderline exploitative. $3 for a macaron feels like a lot to pay.

Not only is it ranked #1 in LA but it goes above and beyond the call of duty. Look at the photo! You can't even see the roll! The icing game is strong! The dough, fluffy. The culinary specialist, Cañada, must have graduated from MIT because she engineered the perfect formula for it! I don't know what else to compare Sweet Red Peach too because they're in a league of their own! The service is quick, staff friendly, the ambiance quiet and intimate. This the perfect place to blow your new years resolutions!

This review is for the cinnamon roll only - my bf and I are in search of the best cinnamon treats…read morein LA and hearing the hype about this cinnamon roll made it a must-try on our list! First, the good: the cinnamon roll was moist and fluffy all the way through. No dry cinnamon rolls here! The service was also very friendly. The not so good: my first bite, which somehow managed to not have much icing, gave me a clear taste of the dough. It reminded me a lot of canned biscuit dough. I prefer a thicker icing, this one was quite runny and very sweet without any nuance to the flavor. Also, I really wanted to try the peach cobbler cupcakes but they didn't have any cupcakes in stock at all, only a few cake slices. We went around noon, and I hoped they would have plenty of options around that time :/ Unfortunately I've had much better cinnamon rolls elsewhere in LA. It's still tasty because, well, it's a cinnamon roll... but not sure I'll be back unless it's to try the cake or cupcakes.

I absolutely love this place. Their soufflé pancakes are to die for! Such a delicious light sweet…read moretreat! I have been here a few times over the years & I always get an order of soufflé pancakes. I've tried the Oreo , the strawberry shortcake, the berry one, they mango & I think the mango option is my all time favorite (: I had ordered a few drinks from here, the cocomelon is my ultimate favorite light refreshing drink but it's only seasonal! Wish they would keep it on the menu for good! I have also tried the berry cheese smoothie & it was good but not to get over n over again. Last night I tried the milk tea. I wouldn't order it again it wasn't my favorite & I've had better elsewhere! My boyfriend like it though!(: This spot is always busy so good sign! I 1000% recommend the pancakes! Must add to your list! You won't regret it (: You can always see them making the pancakes which is super cute & cool to see! They have 2 tap to order screens so super easy to work with & then they bring the dishes to you. Seating inside & out, working bathroom!

Overall it was a nice refreshing drink. Matcha tea with less sweetness. This is a plus since you can change the sweetness of it. There's plenty of outdoor seating and it's in the shade too. Stopped by here after my visit to Japanese BBQ. Needed caffeine to get me going after a large meal. Recommend checking out this place if you're in Pasadena.
