Kimberly P: Cronuts were def worth the wait - so good. Frozen s'mores were really good too.
Nathan S.: My first visit was to pick up a Cronut, but it's since become my go-to quick breakfast spot when I'm in the area. The croissants are flaky and delicious. The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable.
Divya Menon: DKA and freshly baked Madeleines my fav! Cookie shot is really cool and yum too. I am not a Cronut fan sorry!

Joanne Pang: Cute cafe with a more extensive food, drink, and dessert menu. Try a rose, vanilla, or pistachio macaron -- or all three!
Drew Thompson: Orange blossom and raspberry Macarons are amazing!
Jessica: Check out their 2015 Winter desserts and macaron flavours! Lemon & ginger and chocolate banana are my 2 new favourites!
Lily Fu: Brioche is amazing. Sugar is phenomenal but my favorite is the chocolate chip. It's sweet but not too sweet. I come here regularly 😊
Jessica Wickham: My favourite chocolate bread shop! The brioche is incredible, they bake throughout the day, love it when they are still warm from the oven, and the chocolate is all melty hmmm
Ahuva: French pastry galore, the brioche is fantastic and the daily fresh sandwiches (Brie, turkey, Swiss) are delicious and a great bargain at $4.50.
Alex Rainert: Amazing French pastries, breads and baked goods, great atmosphere and solid lunch/brunch options including this brisket burger w/ crispy fries. Prices aren't low but the experience lives up to them.
Angela Hum: The banana coconut chocolate croissant (from the bakery in the front) is my new favorite pastry!! If you're looking for a small treat, it's a must have!
Rebecca Mazza: I love their banana chocolate croissant! All of their other croissants are good too

Samantha Greenberg: Great spot with a wide variety of Japanese pastries. Try the matcha macaron, they're delicious!
