Nestled away like a well-kept secret, Bonjour Pastry is a hidden gem that promises a delightful culinary experience. From the moment you step inside, the aroma of freshly baked pastries fills the air, setting the stage for an unforgettable visit.
The menu boasts an array of tantalizing treats, each crafted with precision and care. The croissants, in particular, are a standout offering. The combination of light, flaky pastry with inventive fillings like pepperocini cream cheese elevates the classic croissant to new heights. The pesto cherry tomato danish is a symphony of flavors, while the almond croissant paired with a rich cappuccino is a match made in heaven.
One of the highlights of my visit was the crossiant sandwich with vanilla cream, a unique creation that left me craving more. Each bite was a revelation, showcasing the skill and creativity of the pastry chefs at Bonjour.
Despite the exquisite quality of the pastries, the prices remain remarkably affordable, averaging around $7-8 per pastry. However, it's worth noting that Bonjour operates on a small batch basis, meaning that popular items can sell out quickly. This only adds to the allure of the place, creating an air of exclusivity that adds to the overall experience.
While I thoroughly enjoyed my visit, there's one regret lingering in my mind: not being able to try the fig and brie danish. It's a testament to the allure of Bonjour that even after indulging in a variety of delectable pastries, there's still a sense of anticipation for...
Read moreUnfortunately we couldn't try anything at this place so I can't review the taste, while the pastries looked meticulous and the place was clean (night crew goes and cleans there). Me and my wife started to order and the guy working there (little chubby, long hair) wasn't having a good day or I don't know what his problem was, but his customer service was very poor. My wife asked him some questions about the bags they sell there which he ignored her, so I started to order coffee and a butter croissant and he asked me if I want it warm so I said yes. Then my wife ordered a coffee too and she was looking at the pastries but we decided to share the croissant. Then he asked again do you want the croissant warm? So I told him it's only the one, then he became more inpatient for some reason smirking and asking, yeah do you want it warm or not so I said warm but he was rolling his eyes and stuff so I decided to tell him to cancel the whole order. No attempt from him to apologize or make it right. Better off going to lofty right by the corner, super friendly and nice...
Read moreLittle neighborhood bakery with a few tables inside and outside, sleek design and crisp atmosphere’s. I was in on Tuesday morning just before 9 o’clock. No line for ordering, but as soon as a customer walked away from the counter, they were replaced immediately by another. The service was quick, friendly and the staff gladly answered my questions about the different pastry options offered. They have all the traditional croissants and breakfast pastries in addition a bouquet of tastefully paired flavors that I haven’t seen anywhere else locally. I ordered a brie and fig jam danish, a jalapeño cream cheese croissant and a hot chai latte. The pastries were super fresh, perfectly crispy and heavenly soft at the same time. I highly recommend this café. The service and the food both were impeccable, the likes of what you would experience in a St Regis or Ritz Carlton somewhere in a trendy European neighborhood, but equally suited for a little Italy. San Diego neighborhood. Will be a...
