    What a charming bakery/coffee shop in a super cute almost European nook in town. If you're…read morevisiting, I definitely recommend taking a drive to this area. Progressive area - Seems to be... There wasn't line when we got there but the crowd usually follows us for some reason so by the time we left there was standing room only and a line out the door. The bakery items were very fresh and tasty. I loved the Swedish gingerbread cookies - light and crisp. The lemon bar was delicious. They also have sandwiches that liked really good. Coffee - I got a vanilla latte extra sweet (no lavender) and my daughter said it was one of the best. I thought it was pretty good. I would go again when back in Birmingham!

    Any time I head out of town (Huntsville), I try to find a local pastry and/or coffee shop…read more Visiting Birmingham, I had all lot of options; Continental wound up being the call for pastries. Nestled in the Mountain Brook area, it's a little hard to see but is right next to Chez Lulu, which I think is a sister restaurant. Parking is a little tricky but manageable. I got there fairly late so the selection was a bit picked over, but I still got a good array of treats to bring home. Service was a touch slow but friendly. They were fairly busy. There's no room to eat inside or outside that I could discern; it's exclusively a take and go type of place. I got two pecan sandies to share with my parents, who were along for the ride, and then a cardamom bun and a peanut butter cookie for later. Sadly, I don't feel like any of the pastries really wowed. The pecan sandies were a little too dry (even as sandies go) and the pecans didn't taste toasted nor were they especially plentiful. The peanut butter cookie was the best thing, though it too was a little on the dry side - nice PB flavor though. I straight up didn't like the cardamom bun. The cardamom flavor was completely overwhelming, to the point it wasn't sweet at all, and instead tasted almost medicinal. The texture was nice but I couldn't finish it. Perhaps I arrived too late to order their specialties. I know they specialize in European goodies so if I return I'll make sure to try a croissant or something similar.

    The two young girls working at the time of my visit were so helpful and sweet! I came in after my…read moreSaturday morning workout to grab a few sweet treats for a friend's birthday. Unfortunately, they didn't have key lime but red velvet was available. Once I got passed the Starbuck's cult members. The parking over here is super , duper tight and you really just have to fight to find a parking spot. You've been warned. I was able to grab a dozen of baby bites and get checked out quickly. The hardest part was parking but no fault of Pastry Art. It also took me some extra time to decide on what other baby bite flavors to get to complete my order. This was my first time visiting this location. The shop is very clean and the presentation of the desserts were cute. I appreciate the staff for being so patient with me.

    Was given some of their mini cupcakes and after clarifying they were nut free, I ate two.

I ate two because of what I was told but less than an hour later I feel sluggish, nauseous and my stomach is killing me. Because they're closed I can't check the ingredients with the bakery themselves and website gives no answer. I have a very serious peanut and tree nut allergy that present as gastrointestinal problems so this is a little upsetting for me. I understand a business cannot guarantee cross contamination, but they should at least disclose that somewhere on the website..
