Le reve is a perfect little, neighborhood go-to for a French style breakfast or brunch. I just tried the breakfast salad which is a perfect healthy option for gluten free folks. The lattes are also pretty good. While I'm not a fan of the croque monsieur sandwich (a little too plain for me), they have a wide enough variety to keep me coming back. read more

This place is dangerous! Staying in the Airbnb on the 2nd floor of the building and I'm coming downstairs every morning for a sweet pastry (pain au chocolat, cinnamon twists, kouign-aman, and their twice baked chocolate croissant with ameretto) and a savory one (pull apart cheese, ham and cheese, bacon and cheese). Excellent stuff all around and heavenly smells once you even get close to the front door. read more

Their Parisienne Pear Danish, their notorious Breton-birthed Kouign Amann. To hear people speak of these delights is similar to overhearing two super models discuss their wild sexual adventures while on vacation in Italy, Rio, France or Greece. Bring a friend, go here, order both and you'll be in the same frame of mind. Trust me. read more

The kids want to go there for the Italian soda. I ordered a few pastries to try out and they are pretty tasty but not too sweet. Tips: get the Twice bake croissant! read more

My review is based off of shear taste and not on the price/decor/ambiance of the store. I'm pretty ignorant as to how much things cost here because a friend recently brought seven delicious pastries over to our house to sample. It was heavenly. Every one of those pastries were super yummy. We had a fun tasting party because we cut each pastry into 1/5th (b/c there were 5 people) and we all got to try a little piece of heaven. My favorite pastry was the strawberry cream (?) I'm not sure about the specific names but it looked like a strawberry dome. It was super yummy. Next favorite was their cheese cake, then creme brûlée, bread pudding, and then chocolate cake. They were all exceptionally good. The ones that I ranked higher probably just suited my pallet more. It was a very decadent and delicious treat. Loved loved loved. read more

Le Rêve is nothing short of spectacular. If it's cold and rainy, nestle up inside with a latte and any one of their delicious pastries. For those beautiful northwest days, Le Rêve has great outdoor patio seating. I dare you to only order one thing. If you have more self control than me (not difficult) and do only order one pastry try the kouign amann! Muffin meets croissant in this unbelievable pastry with a flaky, caramelized exterior and a buttery, doughy interior. Breakfast goes until 11:30 - order the breakfast croissant! For lunch I love the croque madame. They always have a specials board for both food and drinks. read more

Amazing bakery ! I loved all of their pastries and sandwiches. It was smaller space than i expected and we had to wait about 10 to 15minutes to get a sit during busy saturday brunch time. There is no server, and you grab a sit as yoi see one. We ordered capresensandwich, turkey croissant sandwich, and bunch of pastries including cream puff, fruit tart, apple tart, bearclaw, and almond croissant. All of them were amazing. I was surprised i loved their sandwich-specifically their caprese sandwich- more than tha pastries. I love basil and caprese is my favorite kind of sandwich. I had a lot of then in different bakeries, and le reve definitely had one of the best i've ever had. As for the pastries, they are great. Almond croissant was chewy and full of flavors. Its a pleasure to have two of awesome bakeries (le reve and macrina) in the neighborhood. read more

From breakfast to dessert, Le Rêve offers fantastic, flavorful options. Croissants, tarts, cakes, and typical cafe fare. One of the best items at Le Rêve is the kouign amann (or Queen Iman). The flaky, sweet treat topped with a sprinkle of fleur de sel melts in your mouth. I also love their cinnamon twists that pair perfectly with a cup of tea. Arrive early for the best selection! read more

Ahhh, so there is another place to score mind-numbingly good twice baked almond croissants besides West Seattle's fantastic Bakery Nouveau. I'm sure I could figure it out with Google, but there must be a connection between the two bakeries as the croissants are identical - maybe there is some intellectual property leakage from one to the other. Le Reve is a little too delicate & quaint for this fan of Celtic Frost and Motocross. If I could smell any Tabac or had the sight of a Beret at Le Reve, I would've of bolted instead of waiting for my guest. But everything I saw, smelled and ate was excellent, thus making the bakery bistro suitable regardless if there was any aroma of flowery aftershave. The house coffee was burnt (lost a star for that). Had the tuna sandwich made of a croissant and brie - it was very good at a fair price as well. They have a nicely compacted wine selection (it's all French). Nice touch was the Bordeaux Rose'. I think they should offer an Alsace Riesling however (would of paired very well with the "Le Mer" [thats the Tuna Sandwich for us less sophisticated folks {its also Nordstrom's Makeup & Skincare store for those seeking Tabac since I forementioned it}]). read more

I looooove love love this place! Mostly their kouign amann ($5) and raspberry crowns ($4). It's a little pricey but it's my favorite thing ever. Kouign Amann - if you haven't had it, you must try it. It's basically a caramelized croissant. Some other bakeries also carry kouign amanns but the ones at La Reve are my favorite. The top part is flaky and crisp while the bottom is dense and custardy - it's almost like two pastries! It's also very filling if you eat the whole thing by yourself. Best if shared. Raspberry Crown - it seems like the kouign amann but with fresh raspberries and raspberry preserve in the center. It's more of the light and flaky business and less of the rich, heavy bottom. The raspberries are a perfectly bright foil to the richness of the pastry. Also can't go wrong with their other items. But I tend to come here solely for kouign amann since it can be a trek to get out to Queen Anne! read more

Came in here for a surprise birthday brunch after returning from Europe. Oh my the baked goodies! How to choose! The veggie quiche and turkey crepe were good. The overall atmosphere is homey. Can't wait for the summer to enjoy some comfy outdoor seating to take in the Queen Ann scene while enjoying some Parisian influenced goodies. I've always walked by this place and finally gave it a try and was not disappointed. Definitely coming back! read more

Such is cute little bakery with beautiful patio seating! Walked in and was overwhelmed with all the delicious looking goodies. I got the kouign amann (best I've ever had), a cinnamon twist which I think they called it (a fun sweet treat, flaky, not too flaky), and the gruyere pull apart (hard to decide which savory to pick from, they all looked so delicious). Everything was amazing and they have a bunch of retail coffee and other goodies. My parents milk latte was great, I love Olympia coffee! Def check this place out! read more

Cute French bakery and cafe, though the pastries are what seem to shine! Great ambiance and decor for enjoying a coffee or small bit, with gilt frames hanging from the wall and a table made from an old door. Plenty of seating later afternoon on the weekend. I resisted the pastries and got the breakfast salad -- a little smaller than I expected for the price on a 9" plate but the mustard dressing was delicious. I'd love to come back when I've earned an indulgence. read more

Our family doesn't agree on everything but today once we took a bite of our daughters sandwich we all agreed to get another the same one. It's the croissant breakfast sandwich with ham which I never eat minus the cheese. All four of us loved it. Our kids are 9 and 7 and the 7 year old is the picky one! We used Dijon mustard too just a bit and it was fabulous. Friendly staff and tasty treats too! The ice teas are very refreshing. We left happy and full. read more

Why go to a teahouse, when you can go to Le Reve, instead? Le Reve in the top of Queen Anne Hill has the ambiance of a tea house, in a more casual setting. La Reve is an old red house on Queen Anne Ave., with a front outdoor cobblestone patio you might find in Paris. Their case full of lovely treats, lots of Parisian memorabilia, warm european colored walls, and well, "its fancy" to quote my seven year old guest. The baked goods are tasty, from the mini lemon meringue tartlet, to the pain au chocolate they offered to heat up for us (very nice touch!) This is a perfect afternoon stop, for the afternoon tea set, and those who aspire to it, but don't want to pay tea room prices. You will, however, feel like Queen for a day (or afternoon) here at Le Reve, no doubt about it. read more

This place is good for breakfast/brunch. I found it a little bit pricey, but overall experience was positive - good (not the best) coffee, nice omelette, tasty pastries. I had an omelette and 8 oz coffee, my husband had a breakfast salad and a coffee... overall bill was over $30...The portion size was satisfying, but not really filling...We still had a room for the desert! I think there are a lot of similar places where you can get more for this price! But, it's your choice anyways! read more

They do not have a restroom available to customers. This is against Health Department policy. They provide seating for customers and therefore are required to provide a restroom. I visited and had coffee, sat for about an hour reading. Went in to use the restroom and was told there was not a bathroom available. I have no idea how they get way with this. Very disappointed. read more

This is a great little neighborhood spot with outdoor seating. I love the atmosphere and they have great coffee and excellent avocado toast. Minus one star because I do feel like the prices are steep for the amount of food you get... $16 dollars for avocado toast and a small coffee. Overall great hangout for friends and family and a fun atmosphere. read more

This is a cute, cozy bakery in Queen Anne to hang out with friends with very good customer service. On top of coffee and sandwiches, they have many different, yunmy looking pastries for you to choose. I read somewhere that they are actually more known for their double-baked croissants, so that's probably what I would try the next time I'm there. The place is a bit small and has limited seating, so if you plan to come in during weekend for brunch, it can be crowded to the point that you might have to grab your food to go. There's also free street parking in front of the cafe and parking space isn't too limited. read more

I guess if I lived on QA and was totally craving baked goods this would suffice (though I'd take Macrina first). I came on a Sunday. They were bustling. The selection was varied enough and I got a few items for the family. I was not impressed with anything. I won't be back. But again, if I could walk from my home for a quick morning latte and a croissant, I might from time to time. The drive from Magnolia for a so-so piece of flour+butter+air is not going to happen though. read more

A real classic French bakery?! Oh yes!! Can't go wrong here. The pastries are so bomb! Yes I used the word bomb. My personal favorite is the almond croissant... Perfect pairing with a latte or Americano. Breakfast sandwiches, also delicious if you're looking for something savory.... All made with baked bread so you know it'll be fresh and good. The spot is inside a cute home on Queen Anne Ave. Gives off a friendly, welcoming vibe. Outside seating is also an option in the summer on their nice big patio. Just order, pay and take a seat! Warning: space is small and supply can be limited. This place is popular on the weekends so if you get there later in the day your options might be scarce. You'll also have to fight for a seat if it's crowded.... But the fight is worth it! read more

Came here on a rainy Saturday afternon around 2pm to study. They were out of kouign amanns, but I got a twice baked almond croissant ($4.50), which was quite good. Not as good as Bakery Nouveau's, but still quite delicious. The almond flavor was strong, and the pastry was sugary and crispy on the outside and soft and flaky on the inside. I also tried a pumpkin spice chai latte, which was good, but I didn't really notice much of a pumpkin spice flavor. I don't think it was worth the price ($3.95). I also got a baguette ($4.95) which was ok. The bread is pretty dense, and it's not really a plain baguette, it has an almost sourdough flavor to it. So overall, I think this place is overpriced for the quality of the baked goods, but it is a good study spot, as there are lots of tables and many other people there were studying as well. Parking was a bonus, there's lots of street parking and I actually got a spot right in front of the store. No time limit from what I could see. A couple not so great things: it was pretty cold inside. I had to keep my jacket on and still felt the draft on my legs. Also, the girl at the counter didn't seem interested in taking my order, and wasn't friendly or helpful, so I was a bit put off by that. Probably won't come back, since there are better bakeries closer to me. read more

To begin, staff are permitted to eat in the kitchen (yuck! Health code violation). Also, they render themselves a fatal-allergen pit and risk when they allow PEANUT BUTTER in their kitchen. When a customer asks if you have PEANUTS or PEANUT BUTTER in you kitchen, you must divulge facts and not your perception of risk due to your feelings. The answer is "yes we have peanuts and peanut butter" or you'll be dealing with the death of a customer due to your lack of regard and negligence. read more

The best croissant of my life. So flaky & buttery. I literally considered moving here to have access to these croissants.

Came as a recommendation of my cousin and because Paseo was closed. There were so many pastries to choose from but thanks to Yelp reviews I immediately knew what I was going to get. Kourign Amann - one of my favorite pastries that I discovered at Satura Cakes in Los Altos, CA (http://www.yelp.com/biz/satura-cakes-los-altos#hrid:3piT-D3mx4KsGdcEU0H7Sg) - looked different than the one in Satura Cakes - shaped like an oversized muffin topped with powdered sugar - flaky top and soft buttery pastry in the inside - definitely would recommend Twice-baked Almond Croissant - Very crunchy and crispy outside - top was somewhat sweet and topped with good amount of sliced almonds - inside was very soft as other croissants - mainly different from other croissants for the top part being crunchy - great choice Cappuccino: - usual heart latte art - favorable temperature - distinct coffee taste but very smooth - a nice touch to my 2 wonderful tasting pastries. Environment/Service: Pastries are the first thing you see when you walk in or the 2nd thing you see if you count the stairs on the right. Typical cafe but with limited seating inside. There is also outside seating but that's not really an option in the winter. Very toasty inside. Not a place to "loiter" other than to eat and chat. They even have signs to discourage laptops. Staff is really friendly and always had a smile. Self-serve water and bus your own table. Overall, great pastry shop. I somewhat wish I lived in Seattle so that I can frequent this place. There aren't too many authentic French bakeries around that the food symbolizes how much attention is placed on the pastries. The prices are a bit steep at $3ish/pastry. However, for the quality, I wouldn't mind paying that much. Great first impression of the coffee capital of Seattle. I would definitely come back again if I had the chance to. read more

Oh kouign amann you have my heart. This place has exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcellent kouign amanns. Oh-my-word, how did I not know this delectable pastry existed? Layers of buttery pastry with a caramel flavor and a crusty exterior, topped so delightfully with powdered sugar. Oh yum. I'm now on a mission to find all the city's kouign amanns and determine whose is the best. Besides these amazing pastries, Le Reve has many other delicious pastries and desserts to offer. Additionally they have what looks like a tasty brunch menu and lots of sandwiches to choose from. So much to offer, so little time. AND their espressos creations are creamy with the right amount of foam. I kind of love that they don't have WIFI, it makes you stop and pause your day. Just enjoy your cappuccino and pastry, or the company of your companions. This is my favorite go-to cafe. read more

I don't know what happened to this bakery, but a few years ago, their pastries were fresh, tasty, presentable. Now they are tasteless and stale. Not sure if they have a new baker or owner? We ordered the pistachio mousse, and its crust was hard and the mousse was tasteless. Very disappointed!! Also, their sugar cookies were stale. They need to cover all their food because their open door invited flies to come and hover over the macaroons that sit on an uncovered tray and our table. Yuk!! The employees did not seem to speak good English and were more interested in speaking to each other versus waiting attentively on customers. read more

Moonrise Bakery - All I can say is .... Yummy goodness!!!! - Bakeries Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Atmosphere: A mix between "cute but they aren't really trying so does that count" and "quaint lil old house made whole again by the power of small business". Food/Drink: Drip coffee was drinkable, despite hitting the last of the half & half. Btw, I always worry about half & half on a self-serve coffee bar; "How long has this potential liquid poison been sitting out here?" and "What if someone double-poured and touched their once lip-pressed cup edge, thereby contaminating this creamery-vessel with a lip-based plague?" Wow, mega squirrel moment there...sorry! Anyway, breakfast sandwiches were tasty. We were drawn in by a fellow Yelper who posted a photo of a napoleon with royal icing (a rare find), but alas just two days before Christmas we had to settle for an iced sugar cookie. Which, btw was quite tasty. I would've liked it more had the cookie or icing had a bit more vanilla or some sort of flavor. Does it make the grade? My husband administers a simple test when dining out, "Would you order it again?" Heretofore, I am borrowing that and using it in my reviews. So... Would we order it again?: *wait* *for* *it* Yes. If you haven't been, I recommend that you stop by and give it a try! And to the owner: I'm the guy, clearly a transplant from a warmer climate, bundled up like it was Alaska who badgered you about making us a special order of napoleons. One of us is a Euro and together we've been to Paris enough that we feel like pastry connoisseurs. read more
