In short, disorganized, bad parking situation, mediocre service…read more I am not usually one to get so harsh on a place but my experience today at this Paris Baguette has put me off this location long term. I usually go to the Pleasanton spot but happened to be nearby and wanted to get a cake for Mother's day. I understand that because it is a holiday that they were going to be busy, but it was incredibly disorganized inside with people cutting in and out of line at the counter and the staff were too busy to redirect customers or take orders. Incredibly frustrating as there were several instances of people just cutting their way in line and just placing their orders/getting served ahead of everyone else by just walking straight up to the register. When it came to my turn the staff asked for my order then turned around and instead went and took care of someone who had cut in front straight to the register to buy bread when I had already been waiting in line for awhile. They did not even bother asking if they had been waiting there before or had cut the line, the staff just skipped me just because that person had gone straight up to the register. Incredibly frustrating situation and I just did not want to get into it with the line cutter or the staff. Was still able to pick up the cake but I would skip this place since they can't even set up a system for a line/queue. Go to the Pleasanton spot instead and skip this spot.

My sister said she was rude and I knew exactly who it was. Idc about bad service on my dime, but on my family's, that's not okay. Learn to be polite

Just come in and taste the coffee. Coconut Coffee - nice, tasty, blended iced coffee with a nice reach flavorful, sweet taste. Was more of a creamy coconut taste present. Salted Coffee - iced. Hint of a salt. Tasted much similar to simple Vietnamese Coffee if you're seeking something simple, which is my usual. Nutella Banana Coffee- def tasted the banana in this one. Wasn't overpowering. Not a banana coffee person, just wanted to try it. Ordered drinks on their website for pickup.

Asked for no ice and it was excellent - not too cold but just right so flavors come through nicely and doesn't get diluted. Service was also much better and it was nice to see them busy on a weekday. The Dubai chocolate ice cream was also a lot better than the last time. The staff was kind to provide a sample. Would love to see more ice cream flavors in the future like seasonal flavors, rotating. And add some permanent flavors like lavender, black sesame, some savory flavors even.

Melon Mango Ice Cream Cloud: The melon was flavor was very artificial tasting and the mango flavor was very light. It didn't have much flavor at all. The cotton candy was fun though and all the desserts were quite aesthetically pleasing. Although don't be fooled! The cup doesn't go all the way down the paper cone, it just sits on top of it which was kind of unfortunate but funny to discover. Brown Sugar Boba Sundae: I enjoyed my brown sugar boba sundae. It was very sweet but the milk ice cream was quite good. The boba was also pleasantly cooked, not too hard and overcooked but a nice texture. Overall would come again to try their other desserts once in a while.

I dare say it's way better than Starbucks'. I believe they used a special brew those couple of times because it tasted smokey, not watered down or full of sugar. And it's not bitter! I've been thinking about it since then. If I get a chance to visit, I'll definitely order it again!

What a treat to have Suju move in when SB moved out…read more I like this local experience more than previously and their coffee is on par. For serious coffee drinkers, I think this place should please most folks and even the picky ones. Their drinks and food items are reasonably priced and you'll like the airy atmosphere of the cafe to catch up with friends and colleagues onsite. Give them a chance.

So flavorful and perfectly made. Their salsa was also a standout--freshly made, and you can definitely taste the difference. It added the perfect kick to the burrito. We also had the black cold brew and an iced Mexican mocha, and both drinks were just as good. You know it's quality coffee when even the black cold brew has noticeable citrusy notes. Definitely coming back again!

I'm not much of a coffee drinker but my girlfriend got an horchata latte, which I took a few sips from and I thought it tasted more like a mocha and didn't have much horchata flavor but I still enjoyed it. The surprise was easily their empanadas. I'd come back just for these as they are probably some of the best empanadas I've ever had. These things were full of filling (which is rare) and came out hot and fresh. We tried both the spinach and egg & the cheese and potato, I loved em both. The chimichurri it came with was also tasty. Definitely grab a spoon to make sure you can get some on every bite. 10/10 would come back for their empanadas alone. They are $7.50 each, but one kept me full for most of the morning and into the afternoon. All the staff here were super friendly and the space is beautifully decorated. Would definitely be open to trying the rest of their lunch menu next time around.

We didn't even check reviews or photos before going and it was a pleasant surprise. Place was lively with almost all tables full even on an odd weekday. We had honey boba toast and a mocha. Honey toast was good combination of flavors and textures. Mocha too had rich flavor. I don't know if it was because of the closing time but they gave us toast in the to-go box even after not selecting to-go options.

Their desserts were lacking. We ordered the Crème Brûlée Toast and the Banana Crepe with Nutella…read moreand we added chocolate ice cream. The toast was dry. Usually when I have "honey toast" the bread is still bouncy in the middle. The crème brûlée was lacking in flavor. The crepe it self tasted good. It was too thick and hard to cut through (especially since they didn't have plastic knives. There really is no point in serving it as a cone, you might as well serve it flat folded into a triangle. The Nutella was scarce, the chocolate ice cream tasted like it had been in the freezer with the top open. The price is quite steep for the desserts (and the level of disappointment). We didn't try any of the drinks. So if you are there for that, you may have a better experience.

They offer a unique fusion of Asian flavors with classic French pastries. ---- Pistachio Kataifi Croissant $9.50 - croissant is filled with kataifi and topped with pistachio cream and crushed pistachios - the croissant itself was a little too salty for me and I think it needs the sweetness of the pistachio cream on top - the croissant was still crispy at room temperature, but tasted better heated up - I would recommend air frying it or rebaking it instead of microwaving it bc the kataifi gets soggy ---- Notes: - parking lot is small - service was really quick and friendly - a nice display case with a wide variety of items and with their prices listed!! ---- Overall: unique flavors, picture perfect pastries, I can't wait for the Alameda location to open up so I can try more of their items and their drinks!

I wish I wrote down what I ordered but luckily, I did take a picture. I ordered: Ham and Cheese, Almond, French Custard, Black Sesame, Passion Fruit Ganache, Cheese and Mushroom, Shrimp, and lastly, a kouign-amann. They also had a pastrami one that I wanted to try but they were sold out. Everything was delicious and buttery, as a croissant should be. Nothing was too sweet nor too salty however, I would recommend pairing it with either a nice cup of coffee or tea. My favorite so far was the cheese and mushroom and the kuign-amann but honestly, you cant go wrong with anything. Price wise, they started around $6 each which, for the quality you are getting, I believe is fairly priced. The staff were all very lively and super friendly. Also, the smell of freshly made croissants is absolutely intoxicating. I will definitely return to try the other items as well as their coffee.

The parking lot is small and hard to get into but there is street parking. Review is for their breakfast, I love how they are open at 7am, it's perfect for early risers like our family. The remodeled bank is really nice and there are fun areas on both stories to explore. The windows and old bank architecture are particularly nice and you get really nice lighting throughout the day. Will be back to try their pizza based on how good the breakfast was. Breakfast Burrito: Probably the best we've had in our area. This is our taste but we don't like them too big. Avocado, eggs, sausage, and potato wrapped in a thin tortilla. The salsa this came with was excellent. My wife and I actually split this and it was perfect portions for us. Coffee: Cappuccino and Halo Beriti Pour over. You can see their timers and equipment so you know you are in for a nice cup of coffee. The only ding here is I actually asked for a flat white and the person working that day said it was the same thing as a cappucino. The cappucino was so good I was fine but I do like more coffee taste than milk which is why I asked for a flat white. Pancakes: Very well made with apple and whip cream topping, the kids ate way more of this than we thought they would. Yogurt: With granola, blood oranges, and pomegranate. We finished the whole thing, it was a very interesting blend of toppings that paired well with the drizzled yogurt.

I had been to the church before, but I didn't remember the massive coffee hangout there! It's so spacious and offers plenty of seating. How long has this place been here? I wish it were closer to where I live in San Jose! I could easily imagine sitting in one of the comfortable nooks, studying or grading papers. It's also a fantastic spot to meet up or chat with a group of friends. It was definitely a nice place for a date! When we walked in, there were hardly any available seats, but the line at the counter wasn't long. We found a quiet corner to sit and enjoyed our breakfast. I ordered a hot latte with maple syrup in the name, though I can't recall the exact name. It paired nicely with my pastry. The almond croissant I ordered was delectable, with just the right amount of sweetness and flakiness. My partner enjoyed his cappuccino and savory bacon croissant. We walked up two steps to the restroom and were surprised to find more seats and tables. I wish I had noticed that area when I was looking for a place to sit. Oh well, it was comfortable where we were. The girls should have more playdates with their cousins so we can come here more often. Is it really called a "playdate" when the kids are 12 and 15, and their cousins are between 21 and 30?

The salted maple latte was just ok... sadly it looked better than it tasted. I wasn't a huge fan of their espresso as it left a very sour after taste, even with the sweet maple syrup it wasn't very pleasant. Good espresso should be balanced and coffee forward, and I didn't get that. Almond croissant was great, but I was a bit disappointed in their coffee. Ambience is great for studying or getting some work done.
