We recently took a trip down to Dana Point, and I found this gem of a bakery on Yelp. Ambiance: Small, quaint Parisian inspired cafe, French accents throughout, a couple of small tables inside and more outside Service: Service was maybe a little slow due to our 2 quiches that seemed to take a very long time to heat up Food: Pastries are excellent we ordered the Raisin Rolls, Nutella Croissant, Banana-Nutella Croissant, Chocolate Croissant, and the Spinach and Ham and Cheese Quiche. Our 4 adult/teen children loved the pastries, and we thought the only miss was the Spinach Quiche which had way too much spinach for us, to the point that it was bitter, the other quiche was excellent. Drinks: Iced Latte and a Matcha Tea read more

I was visiting from Scottsdale, AZ. I told the young man my daughter lives in Paris, FR, from where I recently returned. She had recommended Le Saint Honore to me as the closest boulangerie to those in Paris. Basil, who was serving me, was quite helpful in recommending various croissants and a Spinach Quiche. It was Fantastic! Formidable! Basil also threw in a baguette at no charge, stating that it was an excellent complement to the quiche. Parfait!!! Excellent service, lovely ambiance, and a sweet touch of Paris in SoCal! I highly recommend Le Saint Honore. I will be back! John read more

A year or so ago, I dropped by this cute little cafe, on he way to pick up a pizza at a nearby pie shop, hoping they had some pastries for my mother. Today, I'm a regular customer (at leas three times a month! The blueberry muffins are Mom's favorite, but she says their authentic eclairs are better than anywhere locally. We've enjoyed their creme brulee; cinnamon rolls, cheese blueberry danish, and more. Can't say enough about their service and attitude. read more

I just came back from France and I've been craving amazing French pastries. This place took me right back)) if you never been to France please visit this place this is your chance to taste France away from France. Best food, warm and welcoming service and gorgeous French music and decor. 100/10! read more

Such a cute French bakery. Great looking pastries and I enjoyed their cafe au lait. Would visit again if I'm in the area.

Decided to stop by after surfing with my sister at Doheny. What a great little find. We came here on a Friday morning around 10:30. Parking is not easy - there is public parking right behind, but the spaces are very small and there is no outlet - one way in and out. So if you can't find a space by the time you get to the end of the parking area, be ready to make a 5+ point turn to get back out... amid all the cars behind you looking for a space as well. We got luck that when I got out of the parking, there happened to be a space on the street right in front of the restaurant. That one downside now covered, the only other issue (which wasn't a problem at all at the time we arrived) is that the space is quite small. There is limited seating inside (which was quite a bit warmer than the temperature outside) and about five or six small tables outside that seem to be designated for this café. So now for the good stuff, we had virtually no wait time, you order inside, and the staff are super friendly. The quiches are huge! I asked what was their most popular and was told the ham and bacon quiche. So that's what I got. I also couldn't resist the pistachio croissant. Recognizing that I've never been here before, the gentleman at the counter gave me some cookies on the house. I topped it off with an almond milk vanilla latte. My sister ordered their French vanilla lemonade, and some pastries to enjoy now and take home as well. The French vanilla lemonade is amazingly delicious, I highly recommend it. My food was wonderful, so much so that I went back in to order some more pastries to bring home to my family. I love that this is a small shop, it looked very clean, and the people are quite friendly. I will definitely be returning. read more

Delicious fresh food and very kind owners. Great for a light lunch, they do take-out as well. read more

Le Saint Honore - Bonjour Croissant - Bakeries Near Me - Dana Point, California

Quaint and cozy. The smells are incredible as you open the door. Smooth iced latte and tasty iced americano needing very little cream. Hubs enjoyed a beautiful looking cinnamon twist - sadly it wasn't gluten-free so I didn't have a bite but the smell was to die for...buttery and cinnamony. Maybe in the future they will offer gluten-free baked goods. read more

Very good pasties and coffee. Stopped by Saturday morning (before it got busy). Really enjoyed my pistachio croissant and double expresso. read more

I really needed a sweet treat and a croissant or two so I decided to stop into this place right off of the PCH. Looked inviting, and while it wasn't packed with customers there were still quite a few at that time of the morning. The service I received was top notch and super friendly and given with a smile. He helped me decide between some items I was eyeing and I bought more than I intended because everything looked so DELICIOUS! Not disappointed. The baguette was tasty as were the croissants. My wife really liked the almond croissant, too. The bateau's are/were really hitting the spot. I suggest that you try these. In fact, try everything. It all looked so good. We did not try the sit down cafe breakfast items so I can't speak to that, but this is a lovely patisserie/boulangerie in Dana Point. read more

We had the pistachio croissant, the ham and cheese and the turkey and cheese croissant, the cinnamon roll and a flat white with oat milk, EVERYTHING was so good, flaky, buttery, and the layers perfectly crunchy, they use good coffee too, I got a vainilla lemonade for my kid but he didn't like it since it was a little bitter strong flavor so they gave us another pastry instead, the service is excellent, and they have tables in the sitting area with a nice atmosphere! Prices are lower than other places with the same quality! We ate everything so I didn't take a picture, but everything is like the pictures other people posted here! read more

What a cute place! And all the pastries...yummm!!! Definitely, worth a visit or two! :)

Stopped into La Saint Honoré on a whim and wow-- new favorite spot unlocked! The pastries are next‑level flaky and buttery. Huge shout‑out to Genesis behind the counter: friendly, lightning‑fast, great personality, and pulled the smoothest, richest latte I've ever tasted. If you're anywhere near, treat yourself--you'll leave with a happy stomach and a new coffee standard. read more

I discovered this cafe today and it was amazing! I had a hint that the food was great when I saw staff from nearby restaurants order food here. I ordered the mushroom asparagus quiche and a lemon tart. The quiche was the best that I've had in Orange County. Flaky crust, very generous amount of cheese, mushrooms and asparagus. Very rich. The slice is huge! When I ordered the quiche I expected to just get a slice of quiche but it was served with salad and slices of baguette. It was a lot. A really great meal. It was also very reasonably priced at $10. The lemon tart was large and very flavorful --- not too sweet and not too tart. The owner and the staff were incredibly friendly and created a warm and welcoming atmosphere. There's indoor and outdoor seating. As you can see from the photos there's loads of pastries, croissants and baked goods to choose from. I took an almond croissant home and loved it! I'll definitely be back. read more

I have been waiting to try their French Onion soup for a while now. I went down today and it was one of the, if not best I have ever had. I love French Onion soup and have it when ever we go out. Especially when traveling. The previous best I had was in Aruba. This is now the best! read more

Le Saint Honore - Spinach cheese quiche florentine - Bakeries Near Me - Dana Point, California

This is my first time visiting. I arrived early because of Mother's Day, but it looked like lots of guests had pre-ordered so I didn't have to worry if they ran out myitem. It was about 715am and the pastry cases were full. I opted for a pistachio croissant, blueberry cream cheese pastry, and was given an almond croissant all looked amazing and freshly prepared. I actually didn't get to enjoy the pistachio croissant till later that morning, but when I did, it was outstanding. It was a light flaky croissant with plenty of pistachio cream inside. the other two items were also delicious. When I have more time, I will return and have other items as well as a beverage. The location was super clean and there was a little seating area outside that reminded me of a Parisian café. The service was fast, friendly and professional. The male employee was super nice and helpful when I was making my decision. And the female cashier was also very helpful.I wish I also took some additional photos. Next time when I update my review, I will definitely do that. read more

Le Saint Honore - Pistachio croissant - Bakeries Near Me - Dana Point, California

I love French pastries and their pastry display is very enticing. I ordered my favorited pain au chocolate and a latte. The PaC was on the dense hard side when I bit into it. I then asked for it to be warmed to soften it up. All that did was have the first layer flake off. Then I thought it was mid afternoon and if it has been sitting in an unclosed case it might have dried out a bit throughout the day. Later I saw items in the back on bakery trays - maybe they were fresher? The latter was good, not great. "French " comes with an expectation, this did not meet it. I hear there are a few French places in San Clemente that are authentic so I will try those in the future. . **The service was great and friendly. read more

Beautiful and delicious pastries! Such a welcome addition to Dana Point. I ordered a variety of croissants for my office and every flavor was a hit. Service was amazing and it's lovely to see small mom and pop bakeries like this succeeding. Looking forward to going back and enjoying a coffee and croissant on the patio. read more

Absolutely delicious!!! Niela was so sweet, friendly, professional and knowledgeable about everything on the menu. The spinach quiche is the BEST I've ever had (and yes, I've been to Paris). My family and I loved the croissants, tarts and you MUST try the amazing French toast!! The side fruit and salad was spectacular and so fresh, which is had to find anywhere these days. The freshly baked bread and prepared parfaits are beyond impressive! Highly recommend if you want a delicious, perfectly-priced and charming breakfast or lunch! read more

Super cute fresh french bakery!, can't wait to come back and try everything make sure to ask for Basil , he's super Knowledgeable and the sweetest human read more

Let me start of by saying that there Customer Service is amazing. The guy that helped me was so sweet he acknowledged me right away & noticed I was having trouble reading there menu sign and gave me a hand menu instead. (I do wear glasses but forgot them in the car). The ambiance is great to catch up with friends. I would keep the circle small like 2-4 people. There tables are not that big for big groups. It's very clean inside & out. Even there restroom is nice ! Super clean & stocked. Now, onto the food portion. There croissants are so buttery, soft on the inside and crunchy & flakey on the outside. The Banana & Nutella Croissant was very delicious. A little overpowering on the sweetness scale but still very enjoyable. There Ham & Cheese Croissant was super delicious the only thing that I would change would be that it had more ham & cheese inside. As you can see from the picture it's just a small piece of ham inside. The matcha latte unfortunately was a miss for me tasted too much like Oat milk and you can tell by the picture. There French onion soup was exquisite. I love that they even provided a side bread with cheese on top in addition to the two that are already inside the soup. The bread is very soft on the inside as well and crunchy on the outside with a nice garlic cheesy taste. read more

Stopped in last weekend for a pastry, and had the best berry croissant I have EVER HAD. It's so hard to find them and this one knocked it pit of the part! I also tried another pastry and a mini creme brûlée that was also delicious! I was in a rush and heading to LAX to catch a flight so I couldn't get more, but I plan to go back this weekend and try their coffee and breakfast!! They also have many different breads for purchase! Also the service was amazing and they were very helpful when explaining what each item was! read more

Saw this new place near Vibe on PCH and am so glad my friend and I stopped in! She had the asparagus quiche which was a large piece and so fluffy and delicious. It came with a green salad and some French bread slices! It was a steal at just $10.00! I had a croissant sandwich with eggs, cheddar cheese and avocado and tomato and I ordered with a side of fruit (assorted fresh berries). I could not stop eating it! The order taker was helpful and the chef came out to see how we were enjoying our lunch! They also have some amazing looking baked goods (baked on site)! I will definitely be back! read more

Delicious breakfast pastries and Toast with Lox. Very good service and nice people. That and eating outside in the sun was perfect.

Amazing pastries! Authentic French bakery with a wide variety of treats. ! Gotta try breakfast next!

I have gone to this place at local farmers markets, so I was excited to go to their storefront. When I say this is the best quiche I've had, I'm not lying! It was so moist and delicious. Their french vanilla latte is also very good. They have a great menu, with lots to choose from. I dined in and got the quiche with a side salad and slices of baguette. Definitely recommend! read more

Perfect brunch I was there few days ago.. The brie truffle fig toast is to die for 10/10 Their croque monsieurs and madames are soooo delicious. Their pasteries especially the strawberry tart and the pistachio croissant are out of this world. The atmosphere was cozy inside and outside. The owners and staff were so friendly.. If you haven't visited yet, you should do it asap. My new favorite place read more

Dear Yelp Community, Found this (new) venue recently...amazing! The mushroom and asparagus quiche was truly unique (large and creamy). The cinnamon twist, originally to-go, was too good to wait for, and I ate the whole thing there. The staff was friendly and welcoming, too. The ambiance is pleasant, with tables outside that remind me of a French bistro. Enjoy! Sincerely, Anna read more

What a great new place. We got a croquet monsieur and a spinach quiche. Both were excellent. The croquet was on fresh bread and the cheese was delicious. The quiche was also delicious and was very generous in size. Definitely coming back for another lunch. Going to get something sweet next time. The tarts look fantastic. read more

Met Lillian today at Le Saint Honore- well..... Not only did she recommend the best pastries for me, but she also made the place buzz with business! Every interaction was top rate! I learned that she is an aspiring chef, so please management at St Honoré- give her the opportunity to work her special kind of magic in the kitchen;) Bring in the potato leek soup!! read more
