Cookie Butter Matcha Latte is soooooo delicious
Monica B.

I tried Paul & Jack Bakery for the first time two weeks ago and I've already been four time! Everything is sooooo good! So far my family has tried their Cookie Butter Matcha, Strawberry Matcha, Appple Danish, Strawberry Vanilla Crossaint, Cherry Pie, Carrot cake, Caramel Pecan Cinnamon Roll, and Plain Cinnamon Roll. Everyone had great things to say about their selection! I also love the atmosphere! They have plenty seating and are kid friendly with a toy section. The staff members are very kind. I look forward to trying more of their items in the future.

My husband and daughter have seen this on IG so we had to check it out. Everything looked so delicious that it was hard to decide what we wanted. We picked a couple of pastries to take home and then decided to share a Napoleon while we were there. The Napoleon was so light and flaky, we loved it! When we got back to her house, we tried a bite of the crème brûlée which had a nice caramelized sugar crunch topping. The cheesecake was airy and just melted in our mouths. We are definitely making this a place to go whenever we visit our daughter!

Amazing every time! Seriously, death row meal, I definitely want the strawberry and cream croissant their croissants are to die for!! You can't go wrong with any flavor! Their coffee is delicious. I also appreciate that they have some toys for young kids to play. My kids usually end up on the floor in the corner playing with the trucks. Ira a really small place, and at times, you might not find a seat but well worth it!

This is such a gem in Wake Forest! Everything here looks beautiful and tastes even better. We tried a mix of goodies--the cinnamon roll was perfectly soft and gooey with just the right amount of glaze, the baklava was flaky and full of flavor, the cookie was rich with chocolate and hazelnut, and the blueberry pie was absolutely amazing with a buttery crust and a generous fruit filling. The quality is top-notch, and you can really tell everything is baked with care. It's the kind of place where you want to order one of everything because each treat is so tempting.

Wonderful selection of pastries and sweets that you typically find in European shops or in NYC bakeries. Had a napoleon which was flavorful and filling. Cost was $10. Most items ranged $6.95 +. They brought a tray of egg custard out as I was leaving. Reminded me off a recent trip to Portugal where this is that national breakfast treat.

Lots of desserts!

Just wanted to take a peek! Ended up getting a cannoli. ‍The lady behind the multiple dessert options said she can cut the pistachios off one end and replace with chocolate chips like the other end. Perfect!! It's a very cute & quaint bakery. Next time, when in the area, we will both get something & probably coffee too! Deliciously light flavored cannoli! Yum!

Here I am the place looks fantastically Festive and calm the only downside is the recycled straws I don't like paper straws falling apart on me while I drink . The staff was friendly and helpful. I got a green tea latte and the staff informed me they are not sweetened which is great because I was able to have her add strawberry syrup . I also got a pistachio croissant amazing!

Desserts at our party that we got!

Hands down one of my favorite spots in wake forest. The pastries are always top notch! We go there once a week or so to get the goodies!

we've been wanting to go here for a while and finally made the trip to them. overall, we had a great experience here. they have so many delicious looking pastries. we got the raspberry pistachio bomboloni, crème brûlée basque cheesecake, cannoli, crème brûlée bombolini, and the mango mousse. every item was delicious and my favorite was the raspberry pistachio bomboloni. we also ordered the black sesame latte which was okay. wanted to try something different but wasn't my favorite. the staff were super friendly and professional. the cafe is pretty small so they only have a handful of tables available for dine in. i would totally come back again to try other items on their menu!

Brookies And croissants and baklava
Dan O.

Best bakery in area, Probably top in class For the triangle. They have Portuguese egg tarts (natas) and tons of cheese cake options. Loads of sweets and a really large assortment of "Brookies"

Sonam S.

The pastries are always so fresh and lots of seating. Its gives a cozy vibe, deff get the bombolini

Bombolonis
Michelle S.

I had been told that I definitely needed to check this place out! The pastries were amazing! I got their bombolonis, which were these donut-like pastries filled with custard and jam! I ordered the mango/vanilla, blueberry/lemon, raspberry/pistachio, and creme brunette ones. They were so good and everyone else that tried them agreed! They also have coffee which pairs great with pastries! It was a little busy on Saturday morning, which is expected! The service was great, ambiance was cozy, and parking was ample!

Brown Butter Cookie Matcha Latte
Mel H.

I finally had a chance to try the Brown Butter Cookie Matcha latte hot. It was sinfully good very rich and creamy. Sweet but not too sweet. It was so good I almost caused an accident trying to back out and savor the moment. I also had a buttery croissant. The service was great and fast. The ambience is cute, clean and small but perfect for that area. I will definitely be going back. The only problem I have with this place is it's only five minutes away, now I want a matcha latte everyday and there's a large variety of fresh delicious looking desserts that I will be trying every chance I get

Came here with my daughter on a Saturday morning. We got there around 9ish and it was packed. There…read morewere barely any seats inside, and because it was a chilly morning and the patio was still a little wet, not many people were sitting outside. On a nicer day you can sit outside if you prefer. My daughter ordered the waffle with Nutella, and since she wanted syrup, we added the cinnamon glaze. She really enjoyed it. I do wish they had whipped cream as an option because I feel like waffles and whipped cream just go together, but that's honestly a small thing. I ordered the avocado toast with the fried egg on top and also the house-made granola. I did not realize the granola serving was going to be so big, so I definitely over-ordered, but no regrets because everything was so good. The avocado toast was delicious. The bread was soft, fresh, and filling, and the whole thing was just really satisfying. I ended up taking the granola to go, and later that day when I ate it, I was like wow... it was still amazing. Honestly one of the best granola and yogurt bowls I've had. So good. I also got an almond latte. Nothing overly fancy, just a solid latte done well. Staff were friendly and patient, especially with my daughter wanting to order. That always means a lot. Another plus: plenty of parking, and they have two single-stall bathrooms, which is helpful. I also really like the Lafayette Village area in general. After you eat, you can walk around, hang out, and enjoy the area a bit. So it can be a quick coffee stop, or you can make a little outing out of it. Definitely worth checking out.

Came here on a Saturday around 1 pm. Wanted breakfast food later in the day than most places offer…read more They were highly rated online so I decided to give me a shot. They are located in a VERY BUSY shopping center. Lots of folks sticking around to hang outdoors in the area. Thankfully I found parking in the lot downstairs in a parking garage with a short walk over. The line was long but moved fast. It was cold and sorta dark inside and crowded compared to it being nice outside, so I chose to sit outside. The courtyard side was packed, so I sat on the parking lot side. Not the best view, but got the job done. They were still serving biscuits, but were no longer serving the oatmeal which was a disappointment. I got the yogurt instead and didn't care for the toppings. My coffee and food came out fast and the biscuit tasted amazing. The biscuit was large, the egg and bacon were perfectly cooked and the iced coffee was delicious. The food is the shining star here. I just wish the ambiance was better. I will be back on a weekday when it's less people to contend with.
