Love coming here and grabbing coffee and a pastry. The pastries here are absolutely delicious! Make sure to grab an almond croissant with your coffee. The staff there are always super friendly whenever I place an order. They have plenty of seating if you wanted to enjoy your coffee there or even work from the coffee shop. read more

Ardour Bakery + Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ridley Park, Pennsylvania

Excellent coffee and baked items. Pleasant atmosphere and very nice employees. Would recommend a visit

As stated by a previous reviewer I too am a tad disappointed. The two young ladies working at the front counter, seem to be a little annoyed at a couple of my questions about their items. I felt like they really didn't care about answering my questions. It was pretty close to @ " eye rolling" treatment. I would've purchased far more had I not felt like I was annoying them. Also, what kind of place serves croissants and doesn't provide you with butter? I was dumbfounded by this. I did leave there with a latte which was good and two pastries which were also good so I can't complain about the taste of anything. But for the price, I think I'll go somewhere else where I feel like a valued customer read more

Small and simple pastry/coffee shop in the pocket downtown of Ridley Park near Taylor Hospital. I found metered street parking (can pay by app or with a quarter/s each = 20mins). The inside is small, but inviting with some tables for chatting, using a device on their free wifi, sitting up along the window for people watching, etc. The small fireplace along the wall gave a nice visual touch along with the plants. I tried their Americano coffee twice and find that it tastes like regular boring Dunkin coffee. I also had an espresso and a cortado. Both of those espresso based drinks had much better flavor than the Americano and hit the spot. Their desserts/pastries are nicely displayed and there is quite a variety - Danish, cannoli, tarts, at times about a dozen different cakes by the slice, cream puffs, croissants, baklava, eclairs, pavlova, macaroons, cupcakes, muffins, cookies, turnovers, bear claws and scones. (apologies if I missed any) I enjoyed a slice of ricotta/pistachio cake with my cortado and Americano on my first visit. They also offer breakfast sandwiches served on croissant or ciabatta until noon and some sandwiches. The staff was nice, very attentive and fast, but a bit robotic and short. They gave recommendations and eventually cracked a smile. I enjoyed my visits to Ardour and would repeat if in the area. It's a good addition to the area. Thanks guys! read more

I ordered an ice chai yesterday and had to go outside to get something. Came back and paid for my coffee only to take 2 sips and 3/4ths of my drink was gone! The drink was entirely of ice! Was so disappointed as I basically paid $5 for 4 sips of drink. I was waited on by two young girls, they seemed to be annoyed that I had to step out for a moment and made my drink while I was gone. read more

The bakery has delicious pastries and is a welcoming place. The coffee drinks are fairly good, but as good as the bakery items.

Consistently delicious pastries, food and coffee. MUST TRY the croissant/pastries with fruit cream is absolutely delicious - very light but super flavorful not heavy at all. Ambiance is very modern and clean. Nice spot for taking cute pictures of your coffee or catching up on some work! Tables and barstool seating available overlooking the little town of Ridley Park.

A cute little coffee & pastry shop just around the corner from the hospital. I stopped by before work to grab an almond croissant, which was flakey, not too sweet, and very tasty. While I didn't purchase any drinks this time, they have a solid menu with both your regular coffee drinks and some creative options too. Their selection of pastries is incredible -- I'll have to come back another time to try their tiramisu croissant or their peach turnover. They also have a selection of cakes and fruit tarts for celebrations. There are a few small tables and there was soft jazz playing in the background. There is also wifi available for guests. I highly recommend stopping by for a quick pastry stop, a study session, or for a meet-up with a friend! read more

Lovely pick me up spot for espresso based coffees and pastries--nice alternative to that larger chain coffee shop. Excellent service and a nice selection of European style pastries--took away a star since the only gluten free option was the chocolate mousse (which was very rich and chocolatey). They also have breakfast sandwiches and tea based drinks as well. I'll be back to try some other offerings. Good to know: They have a few tables for two inside to sit at and an outside table as well. read more

I have lived in Ridley Park for over a year now but never came in since I usually get coffee in Philly when I go to work. It was a day off and I wanted pastries for my boyfriend's birthday. Huge selection, and they are very good. But the young lady at the counter was so rude. Didn't smile and yelled at me that she wasn't understanding me when I said I want six pastries and went to point them out. I paid but didn't tip and sorry but won't go back ever again! No need to be rude to customers. I will spend my money elsewhere. read more

Delicious pastries that are worth their price! Parking is a bit challenging but service is swift. Order at least a day ahead for a whole cake. Coffee is great, too. I had a latte. read more

My sister-in-law has been telling me about this bakery so yesterday I decided to check it out. I was surprised at how tiny it was, it's just not what I think of when I think of a "bakery." Their selection is quite small and I would describe this more as a cafe than a bakery. At any rate, I snagged three things: 1. A chocolate chip cannoli 2. A peanut butter chocolate mousse cup 3. A slice of opera cake When I got home and closely examined the cannoli I was shocked to find CHOCOLATE SPRINKLES on both ends. SPRINKLES??? ON A CANNOLI?? I was instantly infuriated. But then I ate it and realized that there were indeed real chocolate chips on the inside with the mascarpone filling, so I was able to forgive the sprinkle transgression. It tasted fine, but you can tell that they do not fill their cannolis as they are ordered since the shell was a bit soft. You can easily up your cannoli game by filling the shells as customers order them. Onto the opera cake: it was good! I don't have anything other to say than that. It was good. The peanut butter chocolate mousse thing was definitely the best thing I had. It was delicious, top to bottom. I have zero criticisms of it whatsoever and will likely see it in my dreams at night. I was torn between a 3 and 4-star rating for Ardour. I think it's a little misleading to call themselves a bakery when they're sooooo tiny, and their offerings are available at other, bigger bakeries nearby (Cocco's Gelateria, Traub's Bakery, Maria's Prime Time, etc.). If Yelp did half-stars, they'd definitely earn a solid 3.5 from me. I think Ardour is best for those looking for a coffee and a pastry and not for those looking for a bigger selection of baked goods. It's in a cute little part of town and would be nice to grab a treat and take a walk to see what else the shops nearby have to offer. read more

Very cool little place. Jazz playing. Very clean and the service is great. Nice people. The coffee, desert and price was great. Recommend

They have the starbucks rule where you need to buy to sit there...or leave if you don't buy that day

Cute place with nice ambiance but I wasn't impressed. Every other customer coming in got a nice greeting and farewell and I didn't receive either. The girl working the counter just gave the overall appearance of not wanting to be there. The cake slice I had was dry and not much to write home about. Such a bummer since I'm so local and would've liked to make this place a regular stop on my commute.. read more

Desserts always on point. The iced matcha latte was not great. Maybe I'm just used to ones from other places I didn't ask for any sweeteners so it was print fault read more

I found a Ridley Park gem! I can tell there's a strong Parisian influence to their bakery from the menu and decor. I came around 10 AM and there were already people sitting down having their morning coffee and a long line for their baked goods. So many things looked delicious, and I ordered a bunch to go. Here's my ranking of everything I ordered: chocolate croissant, iced almond milk vanilla latte, macarons (crème brûlée, pistachio, coffee), chocolate dipped cannoli, and cream puff. I think this is one of the best chocolate croissant I've ever tasted, and I've tasted a lot! It's so airy, you can see the layers as you take a bite, and there is a right amount of chocolate filling. The macarons were baked perfectly, the cookie was crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside. My dad enjoyed his cannoli and said it reminds him of Termini Bros' cannolis. The cream puff was alright, I wish the puff pastry was a bit more airy but the cream was just the right amount of sweetness and airiness. I highly recommend trying their pastries! Regarding their drinks, they have the basics on their menu: cappuccino, latte, americano, etc. My latte was great, I can taste the strong espresso flavor (which is rare with lattes because it's usually diluted out) and the vanilla wasn't overpowering. Keep in mind that the only milk substitute they have is almond milk. There's a lot of metered street parking (30 mins time limit). If you're in the area, support their small business! read more

Got the mini strawberry shortcake...looked like a heart cute idea for Mother's Day...hence the 2 stars...that's were it ends!

Between the cold unfriendly service and now a pretty subpar product...I'm done! read more

Patronized based off word of mouth & I'm highly disappointed. Everything tasted like refrigerator. It's like they prepared it's days in advance. The cakes were stale even after we allowed it to sit out and get room temperature. We ordered the following: carrot cake (dry, lacking BUTTER) red velvet (Dense, Dry & refrigerated taste) heart cheesecake & sugar cookie (my daughters seemed to enjoy it (they're younger; hence the two stars) & lobster tail (filling enjoyable; shell stale) I gave two stars due to the ambience and service. Would I go back? Maybe for coffee since I didn't try but not for pastries. A lot of bakery's will open but they slight the ingredients. In return it doesn't give FULL experience. I get butter is high & cream maybe too, but you must add these ingredients to get an amazing product! read more

Ardour Bakery + Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ridley Park, Pennsylvania

Heavenly. I don't know how else to describe the food we got here other than this word! We've visited Ardour twice now, and been blown away each time. On our first visit, we arrived around 5pm on a Saturday, so there weren't as many offerings available as there would be closer to opening time. We each got a macaron (pistachio and raspberry) and a slice of a chocolate cake that I believe they called Temptation. The macarons were some of the best I have ever had--soft/somewhat chewy texture that a proper macaron should have, and a perfect ratio of filling to cookie; the flavorings were also to die for. The cake slices were also amazing! It was chocolate with a light hazelnut layer that had a bit of crispiness to it. Despite being decadent and flavorful, the cake was still light and airy enough that you did not feel ill after eating it like you sometimes will with a cake slice. The mist recent time we visited (the day the pictures are from) was a Friday around 10 AM. We each got lattes--one iced, one hot--and the espresso was strong and flavorful; sometimes when you get an iced latte it is overly diluted but that definitely didn't happen here! We also got a ham, egg, and cheese croissant, a spinach feta bistro, and a blueberry turnover. My partner got the croissant sandwich and said it was one of the best he had ever had. The croissant was the perfect size, flakiness, and buttery flavor. I felt the same way about the spinach feta bistro, and once again the amount of filling was perfection--enough to be filling, but not enough to make the pastry soggy whatsoever. We split the blueberry turnover and...I cannot wait to have another one. I wish I had taken a photo to show the pastry layers, it truly put every turnover I have ever had to shame. We will be back many, MANY times! We are especially looking forward to trying some of the more traditional eastern European desserts--the Napoleon cake looks unbelievable! read more

Very cute little bakery with good pastries, service was nice too, will come back once i travel in the area!

A cute coffee shop in the center of Ridley Park. They have everything you're looking for in a coffee shop, but the customer service was somewhat lacking: the girls were not very pleasant and seemed a bit rude. I did enjoy their latte and a tiramisu. The shop is very cute and the view looking into the center of town was quite pleasant. read more

Overall a great addition to Ridley - adding a cafe with seating for about 8-10 that was extremely clean and all products show cased well. We savored the limoncello, tiramisu, blue berry muffin and apple turnover - all excellent. On the morning I stopped by they did not have any brewed/pour over coffee but the cappuccino was perfect. Dropping stars only because the service could be better. read more

I've had products from Adour Bakery twice so far, and they are one of the best bakeries I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. The baked goods are fresh and beautiful. As wonderful to look at as they are to eat! I could literally go there every day (but I can't!). My family and I have bought the eclairs, cake slices, and the cream puff with the fruit on top, and everything is fabulous. Also, the bakery is spotlessly clean and the staff is professional and very pleasant. The prices are also very reasonable. It's nice to have a fancy bakery in the area. I hope they have a lot of success, because they are clearly hardworking and dedicated. read more

The espresso is actually very good, so for lattes and other drinks I'm a massive fan. The pastries and cakes are extremely good. I see some other reviews stating that things weren't "fresh", I have never experienced that, I go there at least once a week and all of the food items taste great. Not to mention the pricing is sooooo good. You'd think you'd be paying an arm and a leg for what you're getting. I can feed the whole office (6-10 people) breakfast for about $30-$40. Reason one million to support small businesses. read more
