I am a BLT fiend and this is my 2nd favorite BLT in the city. The California club, ham & cheese (I don't even like ham!), caprese, turkey havarti, and junction croissant are all excellent as well. - the quiche is wonderful. Sometimes quiche Lorraine can taste dull and stodgy. This quiche Lorraine is bright and silky. - the cake: German chocolate cake is perfect. I am excited to try their other cakes. - pastry: delicious croissants of course! The cold brew is also great! And very friendly service always.

This is the only pastry shop and restaurant in Seattle which deserves six stars…read more Food: Exquisite across board. You do not have to worry about what you order, it will be great. We recommend you try something new and prepare to be impressed. Rather extensive menu for such a small place. They do not cut corners on preparation or ingredients. The star for us are the croissants which are actually perfect. Really! Service: Superb in every instance. The staff is there to serve you and they do it with class, good humor and professionalism. They are very knowledgeable about their products and are happy to share that knowledge. They work as a team which means no breakdowns when things get busy. Physical: Does not wow from the outside but is very attractive inside. Well laid out for efficient service. All the details are top notch - displays, cloth napkins with beautiful silverware and china, art, etc. The outside seating in very inviting now that the weather has improved. Atmosphere: You actually do feel like you are in a French café, except with friendly service. Prices: Given all of the above the prices are very, very reasonable. This is one of the few dining experiences where you actually get what you pay for. We always leave happy. I repeat - six stars.

For now, I am giving it a 3 star. I was in between 3 and 4 but when expectations are high, the…read moredisappointment hits harder too. BUT I will revisit to try more of their pastries. I saw this place on a list for top 3 croissants in Seattle. Obviously I had to come through and taste their original plain. And... Idk! It wasn't bad but it wasn't... that great either. I prefer Bakery Nouveau (West Seattle location) and Saboteur way more. The service was good and the ambiance was quite cute. Check out my photos!

It has amazing French and Vietnamese bakery selection from macaroons and croissants to Vietnamese meat pie. I got the last Scottish egg pie and jt was absolutely delicious with the perfect balance of buttery crisp, savory sausage and creamy egg with touch of spice, garlic and herb from the chimichurri. The varieties of sandwiches were served brioche breads or focaccia and my schnitzel was perfectly fried with just the right amount of pickled onions and curry flavor. I didn't have room for the tiramisu (shock!) and no access to refrigeration to keep it cool for the entire ferry ride back, so I'll just have to make sure I come hungry the next time we visit.

A lovely little breakfast (open at 8am), brunch, and lunch spot in downtown Poulsbo. We just…read morediscovered it and will be going back. Very French menu. Everything is house made with care, dedication, and love. Best brunch we have had since we lived in San Francisco where, due to crowds and parking, brunch is a blood sport. Thankfully, no problems like that here. Finding this place made our day.

Why does Mercer Island have an abundance of fantastic bakeries?…read more La Fete is a petite pastry / coffee shop that has amazing pastries. The earlier you come the more likely you will get to eat the delicious pastries, but if you come past 11 AM you likely won't find much. Their croissants are always on the menu, but many of their pastries are seasonally available so you have to come back. I haven't tried their sandwiches yet, but those pastries are amazing. The staff here are so nice too! Super tolerant as my indecision took over my brain seeing so many pastries! I think not having anyone behind me helped with that - a rare slow moment - because once the door opened I waved the white flag, asked them to pick me 3 of their favorites and off I went. The only problem with that is I can't recall the names of what I bought. The croissant, easy. The little puffy pastry with big sugar flakes and apricot that was very light? No clue except it was delicious.

Really enjoyed this little cafe! The pastries are baked in house and are delightful. We had the…read morealmond croissant and the raspberry chocolate croissant and both were excellent though I preferred the almond. Espresso was solid. They also have small baguette sandwiches that I'd like to try next time. There was tons of traffic on a weekday morning. Overall a small space with a few small tables inside and an outdoor patio with more tables which will be lovely as the weather gets warmer, but we were able to grab a table. Great place for catching up with someone.

The Highlights * Croissants: Unbelievably flaky, buttery, and fresh. * Pistachio Apricot Tart: Absolutely amazing--the nutty pistachio paired with bright, sweet apricot was incredible. * Pizza: Don't sleep on the savory stuff. The bakery-style pizza has a great crust, delicious sauce, and generous toppings for a perfect pre-flight lunch. The staff keeps the line moving fast, the vibe is bright and welcoming, and the food never disappoints.

My favorite bakery in the most dangerous location in Burien…read more Not dangerous because of crime. Dangerous because it's directly across the street from my gym. Nothing says "great workout" quite like immediately replacing every calorie you just burned with one of Bakery Nouveau's twice-baked chocolate croissants. I prefer to think of it as strategic carbohydrate replenishment. Everything here is exceptional. The pastries are buttery, flaky, and somehow manage to ruin every grocery store croissant for the rest of your life. The coffee is excellent, the staff is consistently friendly, and it's one of those places where it's impossible to leave with only the one thing you came in for. The neighborhood feels safe, parking is plentiful, and the only real hazard is convincing yourself you deserve "just one more pastry." Five stars. My spin instructor may disagree. Bakery Nouveau is worth every extra minute on the bike.

Also a bonus because the day we came was also the farmers market! Service was welcoming and friendly! They had a few tables with seating inside. We got the raspberry ribbon croissant and egg tart! Wish I had more tummy space to try more items because these pastries were delicious!

It was pretty easy to make a cake order and the writing was free, unlike online where it says $5 for writing. When I got the cake, I was a bit disappointed. The writing had bled onto the cake, there was a crack in the frosting and it appeared that the frosting at the bottom leaned piped to the board instead of the cake. I didn't bother mentioning this at pick up because it didn't seem like the worker was also the cake person. The cake itself was a tad dry but light and airy. For the price I paid, I was disappointed by the outcome. Even if it was due to additional cake orders due to mother's day, I do expect better than this when I buy a cake from a local bakery. Also if you like crispy croissants, I do not recommend the Sichuan pepper cruffin. It was tasty but it didn't have the crisp that you'd expect from a bakery.

We have put in a request few months back for a rotation of the soups but we always end up with Tomato or Chicken Noodle and occasionally Asparagus as the soup choice. While we like Tomato and Asparagus the Chicken Noodle is our least favorite. Our favorites are Leek and French Onion but these never seem to show up on Tuesdays for the last few months always the same.

Line went by quickly - free sparkling water on tap! Love it! If I'm ever in the Seattle area, I will stop by again for some pastries. If you wait too late in the day, the popular items go quickly.
