Smells amazing in here! Was at work next door and came down for a snack before an event. You can smell the baked goods as soon as you walk outside. The workers were super friendly. Super knowledgeable about the bakery case. And I walked out with the most delicious Caesar chicken tartine that I've ever tasted. Will be coming back for more! read more

I honestly do not understand how this place has such a long line. Everything looks amazing in photos, but the actual experience was a huge letdown. We bought a variety of pastries, and I was really disappointed by almost all of them. Most of the items were surprisingly bland and completely lacking flavor. The biggest disappointment was their salt bread, which was easily one of the worst versions I have ever tried. Instead of having that classic buttery bottom, a nice crisp bite, and the signature hollow pocket in the center, it was soggy, dense, and dry. There was barely any salt on top and zero rich butter flavor. To top it off, the service was frustratingly disorganized. While we were waiting for our drinks, the staff completely forgot about our order. Multiple parties who ordered well after us received their beverages before we realized our ticket had been skipped over entirely. Between the tasteless baked goods and the poor service, this was a super frustrating visit. Definitely would not recommend based on our experience. read more

I finally made a trip here after soft opening and I feel like nothing really changed from when I went during soft opening. There's a long line but it moves fairly quickly. I really don't like that you can't see everything on display before you order...you kind of have to wait if you want to see what's available or try to sneak in to look and then get in line. The other downside is thatbthere was thing's that was still baking so you might not see everything anyway... It's crowded so not for dine in, there are some seatings outside though. Foodwise: croissant -- standard. Salt bread -- like the flavor but texture isn't right Pistachio donut -- dry. Even with the cream Things was pretty pricey here as well... Overall, I don't think I will be back anytime soon. read more

Ordered the basil chicken sandwich and it was a bit of a miss for me. Credit where it's due: there was a genuinely good amount of chicken packed in here, and the bread was soft and fresh. But the flavors didn't come together the way I wanted. The whole thing skewed slightly sweet, which I'm guessing came from the bread, and that threw me off. I was expecting savory, so the sweetness felt out of place. The chicken and the bread were both solid on their own, I just didn't love them as a unit. Good individual parts, disappointing sum. read more

The staff were great with helping answer questions and quickly and politely preparing orders. The line was really long even an hour before closing and they were sold out of many items. The inside has a few seating areas but there's more space outside. I think it was extra busy though due to the art festival outside. The bakery was quite good and I'd love to come back earlier to try more items another time! read more

I came back from Korea and really wanted to find some salt bread, and as it turns out, this relatively new bakery close by had some! I didn't know this was here, but I'm very excited it is, because their breads are delicious! I have tried a number of their breads (they also serve samples), but I think for salt bread texture the garlic butter one is closest to what I was looking for (requires an air fry reheat). The kimchi bacon tartine is also excellent and SO much kimchi. I gotta come back and try their egg tarts too some time! And they're right next to Don't Yell At Me so it's a nice combo. And a very short walk from the Bellevue bus terminal. Everything is great!! read more

Had the egg tart here and it was amazing! It's slightly larger than your standard size, but super creamy and buttery. It had just the right balance of eggy flavor and the crust was very flaky, fresh, and the right balance of butter. Also conveniently close to the movie theater and shopping center. I haven't tried their other desserts yet but will be back! read more

I got the rose honey latte and it was pretty good! Nice flavor and perfectly not-too-sweet. My husband got an iced americano which was decent as well. The only pastry I tried was the canele. It was very tasty, I would definitely recommend! read more

The bakery is 5 star!! So many unique baked goods in addition to your usual stuff like croissants. They have cannels, there is a long line but it moves fast. It's a little on the expensive side we got 2 pastries for $20. It's the perfect place for brunch in the summer as there is plenty of outdoor seating outside the cafe and you can park at Bellevue towers. Definitely coming back again! read more

I loved the purple rice bun, but didn't care for the chicken sausage sando cuz the sausage is dry. Filling for the Chocolate Egg Tart is good, but not mind-blowing. Most items range from $9-11, except for egg tarts that are $6.75 each (3 for $18). The line on a Friday isn't bad, I waited for only a few minutes to be helped. I'll come back to try some items with rose and get the purple rice bun again, if there is no line. read more

A pretty nice bakery located in Bellevue next to a couple of popular spots. They have a good selections of pastries, both sweet and savory. We ordered a good amount to try and were pleased with how they tasted. They also had some unique items that I haven't seen before. I liked that they have samples of some of their items for you to try as well. read more

Fast and friendly service. Tasty and interesting pastry options. Chill, modern vibe. Great place to work if you can snag a table. There isn't a whole lot of seating. Parking difficult. Be prepared to walk or take public transit. read more

Was in downtown Bellevue recently, was taking public transit and cutting across from the transit center headed to the mall. Heard about this place but saw it as we were walking by. So we decided to stop and check it out and get something. Its not a big place, there are a few small tables and a bench to sit at, mainly people go outside and sit in the business courtyard. The selections they offer do look good in the display case. A lot of stuff I never really heard of or seen before. All looked pretty darn good. We decided to share something as we were just stopping by to try something. We got an iced coffee and the pistachio egg tart. Egg tart was good, flaky, not too sweet, pistachio flavor was there and the custard was good too. Prices are on the higher side, quality seemed good & tasty, staff was fine with us. Definitely some items I saw that I would want to try next time. read more

Another social media hyped place that's overpriced... There was a long line when we walked in. Ordered rose bagel (most popular item) and rose maritozzo for almost 20 dollars. I meant it wasn't bad but i don't see the hype. There was nothing special about it. It just looked pretty! Lol. And i guess the bagel was more chewy side. Apparently they do validate parking, i didn't know this before I parked at another building which was no problem. But I am not sure If i would come back for this. read more

The egg tarts and shio pan were highlights. The tarts were the perfect mix of flaky crust and custard filling. The sourdough tart had a slight tangy flavor and the shio pan was so soft on the inside with a buttery crispy exterior. Looking forward to trying the pistachio tart. While the prices were a bit high, I think the quality and taste are worth it. The sourdough bread was a little disappointing. There were some air holes, but not very much sour flavor. The line moved pretty quickly. It was a little hard to see everything and decide on the spot when the server first asked, but after the front moved, the choices were more visible. The samples were a nice touch to try some of their interesting items like the brionut. There is very limited seating inside but right outside is a shared outdoor seating area. Would recommend eating outside when the weather is nice. read more

Be Alive (breads) Food: Excellent pastries and single cakes. Asian level of sweetness. Beautiful presentation. My favorite for moistness, texture and flavor. * purple rice bread. * berry rose bread Eating some of the items are not convenient (sticky exterior, or toppings fall, or inside cream oozes out). Ambiance - lovely. Service- lovely folks, excessive packaging, lines are slow when you have so many customers and packaging takes time. Value- expensive (for quality and location). They do have a reward system that takes the edge off. Parking- garage with validation or street parking. Recommend- worth trying! :) read more

I really liked this place. I went once when they were still very new and they were sold out of everything. I went again today and they were seemingly fully stocked. I really enjoyed the rose bagel and salt bread, got three of the egg tarts but haven't had them yet. The prices are pretty high but it seems good quality. I noticed a lot of bad reviews about filling being less than before so hopefully they don't continue to do so. I really liked the warm vibe and it smelled nice inside. The guy behind the counter that helped me was also very friendly and gave suggestions. Cashier wasn't as friendly and didn't smile but the service of the first guy made up for it. It is a little confusing if you get a lot that you're supposed to take your tray when they're done. Make sure to get your parking validated also. Will be back! read more

Review for the egg tart and cheesecake only. Great presentation! Unfortunately the taste fell short with a high price tag. While one egg tart is $6.75, buying three reduces the total to $18 (or $6 each). There's regular, chocolate, rose, and pistachio options but they do sell out. When we asked, it was about another 20 minute wait for the pistachio. There is a parking garage and they do validate parking. Some indoor seats but a ton of outdoor seating with the large outside space connecting them to Don't Yell At Me. Raspberry Basque Cheesecake - it's a basque so no crust and every bite will be uniformly fluffy. The center wasn't more gooey or squishy. There was a lack of cheesiness even compared to other basque cheesecakes. Honestly, the raspberry topping was the best part here. Not too sweet which was good, but also not super flavorful outside of the raspberry. Egg Tart - sourdough base which was honestly pretty tasty, but I wouldn't say extraordinary. Crispier and crunchier exterior but the inside egg tart filling was pretty standard. It's not a sourdough filling after all. Did a blind taste test with my partner at home and it's very obvious this egg tart tasted better, but I would rather have 3 standard egg tarts over 1 sourdough egg tart for the price. read more

The bread is alive!!! BA Bakehouse is a solid spot for great bread. I've been here multiple times and have tried a number of their products and the quality is consistently good. Their rose maritozzo and rose bagel are popular. Personally, I do not like rose-flavored food so I didn't enjoy them at all. If you like floral favors, give them a try. My favorite here is there garlic herb shio pan. They are usually both crispy and soft. I think the secret lies with the bottom of the bread being baked to a crisp while the the top remains pillowy soft. Yum yum! read more

since it's all monopoly money anyway, I'm just judging the taste and quality and not worrying about the $6-$10 I paid for an egg tart or piece of bread your parents would buy for 50 cents in the 2000s. The pastries aren't over the the top sweet although are certainly on the decadent side. The savory breads, like the kimchi bacon, are definitely a little greasy though so if that's not your vibe, then go elsewhere. But obviously, the goods are fresh and the style is different. Also, if indifferent rich teenagers on summer break serving you aren't your thing, save yourself a trip. Just realizing I'm letting a lot slide and it's probably cuz I'm still coming down from the sugar high... read more

BA Bakehouse is in soft opening with their grand opening targeting April 20, 2026. Staff told me they are currently stocking about 50% of their pastries and drinks which is pretty crazy since there's already a large pastry selection. BA is originally from Yunnan China with locations in Dubai and now this is their 1st US location. Parking in the area is a paid lot or street parking and they're located next to Don't Yell at Me. When walking in, you're greeted by staff who wait to grab the items for you. I got multiple pastries and below are my highlights. Shio pan ($4.50): these salt breads come in garlic herb, salt, and prickly ash (peppery). they're delicious and I highly recommend the garlic herb. Croissant ($5.50): very solid and you can taste the different layers. It's crunchy on the outside and airy on the inside. Definitely better than what's out there. Egg tart: you get a "deal" with 3 egg tarts for $18. all egg tarts were super crispy on the outside and the filling was great. The sourdough egg tart was custardy and less eggy. The pistachio was nice and subtle while the rose had a rose jam on the top. The rose jam tasted a little too much of pickles though. Chicken sausage sando ($9.50): the sausage sits on top of a ground chicken (?) cooked with onions. overall an okay pastry and not too bad. Rose maritozzo ($8.50): the maritozzo is a cream filled pastry and indeed it's super creamy. the filling is very light and airy. the rose flavor was light and also reminiscent of pickles. (mango) Basque cheesecake ($11.00): the cheesecake was not bad and the mangos weren't super sweet. the Basque cheesecake was just okay and I'd skip it in the future. Overall, a nice selection of artisan pastries. I'm not sure why the rose items tasted like pickles but I'd avoid them in the future. It's a little pricey - I got 10 different pastries which ended up being around $80 before tip. I'm curious to see what they're going to have at the full opening but so far it's a nice sweet treat yourself option. read more

EVERYTHING HERE WAS GREAT!! I love it when placed add a great variety of both savory and sweet pastries, we seriously need a nice balance of both.

They also had different flavored Maritozzo 5/5 a pistachio Basque Cheesecake 2/5 didn't like the texture of this one. I cannot wait to come back and try some more things read more

I saw a lot of great reviews about this bakery on TikTok, so I decided to check it out. When we got there, it was hard to find parking, and the store was very small. The pastries were excellent, but the coffee was pretty basic. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for unique pastries that you can't easily find anywhere else. read more

I love the sour dough bread here and we also tried the grape and cheese bagel! yummmm! They also provide 2 hour parking which is amazing! Dogs are allowed! Woohoo!

I love how many new businesses are opening in downtown Bellevue, including this bakery, BA Bakehouse, which is located along the Grand Connection. BA Bakehouse is the newest bakery in town, with a current soft opening. My friend and I visited BA Bakehouse on a Friday morning and the place was pretty busy around 10am. There was a line, which went by quickly, but because they're still in its soft opening phase, they didn't have all its offerings yet. They were still baking a bunch of their pastries when we visited, so not everything was out in the display case. My friend and I split the ganache bagel and egg tart, which were both solid. The ganache bagel was nice, but I would've preferred it if it had been slightly toasted or warmed. The texture of the bagel was too firm, so was a little hard to chew. But the ganache and chocolate cream was yummy! I liked the egg tart more as it had a ton of creamy egg filling and was nicely toasted. I recommend trying if you like egg tarts. In addition to pastries and breads, they have a full coffee bar and I was told by the staff that the chocolate syrup is the same chocolate that's used for the ganache bagels. Noms! Limited seating inside, but tons outside in the central area of the Grand Connection for those sunny days. I'll definitely be back to explore more of their menu. read more

The service was great, but the food looked a bit better than it tasted. The Garlic Herb Shio Pan had great flavor but could have had slightly better texture. The Raspberry Maritozzo was also pretty good and I liked the flavor of the filling, though it does not travel well (not the fault of the bakery at all!). The Pistachio Egg Tart was the most disappointing. The flavor fell flat and the filling looked like it was almost scrambled. I would still like to try other things on the menu! read more

Understand this review, because it is still their Soft opening, the whole process is overwhelming, rushed and unprepared. Heres my thoughts behind this: We got there around 9:30am Parking: free street parking or validated underground garage. Located next to Itadaki jp restaurant and dont yell at me boba. CONS: *So when we got there, there's only 1 person in front us, but we automatically got confused. Do we ordered at the end or at the beginning of the display line. No one greeted or tell us what to do. We ended up grabbed this sweet gal attention after we sort of know what we want in fast mode. *some of them items like the coffee papa roti and purple rice bun just finished baking, so we had to wait 10min to cool down, which is ok. *there's something in jar near the kitchen, dont know what it is..I wish the gal told us, "we have this, this and that, almost ready if you like to get". So ya, no idea what it is. Salted bread - only available on the weekend Croux cream puff- available after 1pm Rose bagels - available after 11:30am Sour dough Portuguese tart - available before 11am. *These whole idea of availability is not a good thing. I don't the reason behind that, maybe they don't have enough kitchen space or not enough bakers *there was a fly inside the display bread case. I had to tell the lady about it. *the prices are a bit in the high side especially for the small Basque cheesecake, sliced cake. $11 each *seating: 3-5 small seating area l and loud. This is more to go type of bakery or cafe. But there's a shared outdoor seating area. PRO: *reward system: enter your phone number. I spent $93 w tax for 10 items included drink, then I was able to use my reward right away 13.40 off for my 3 bread. *samples for you to try their croissant and bread, which i really appreciate. OVERALL: We ordered: Sourdough Portuguese egg tart chocolate $13.50 - the chocolate over powering, doesn't taste like sourdough Honey toast $4.50 - nothing special Sourdough orange nut small loaf $9.50 Basque cheesecake $11 White cake slice $11 16oz matcha latte $6.50 16oz Rose honey latte $6.75 Purple rice bun $8.50 Coffee bun pappa roti $5.50 The bread price is about right. Maybe they should open glass display for customers to grab themselves so the workers can actually help out more in the kitchen. People started to line up to get service because there's only 2 helping customers. And as for availability: Maybe instead of different time or days, how about have them all available everyday and maybe have 1seasonal item change weekly. I truly want to buy more, but now I am confused when would be the best time to try again. read more

First time visit and everything was delicious! We ordered 3 different egg tarts, shiopan(Japanese salt butter roll), and a chocolate croissant -- all were so fresh and tasty. The rose honey latte was also great. One thing to know: they offer 2 hours of free parking validation if you park in the same building garage and bring your receipt. We didn't know and ended up paying $6 for nearby parking. read more

We came on a Thursday morning. The smell of fresh rose bread wafted through the parking garage getting me excited. However, when we got there the case display was meager. I believe because it was a soft opening the display cases were less than 50% full with limited items. The rose bagels came out around 9:30a and we got there at 9a, but they sold out within minutes and we didn't get our hands on some. It seems they periodically put them out every 2-3 hours with timings posted on a sign on top of the display. Instead we ordered a loaf of bread and a cake both which were good, but not something I would necessarily travel for. The coffee was good and relative standard for a coffee shop as well. It took quite some time for it to come out ~20 minutes which is possibly because they are soft opening or perhaps the ingredients were not all prepared? Definitely longer than I would like to wait for coffee. The ambiance is well lit and elegant, but seating is limited with 2 small tables and some benches. Because of this it would probably be hard to do dates unless you are taking out. Pricing was standard for the bellevue area if you get a coffee and bread about 10-15 pp. Parking is easily accessible and validated in the garage below. Perhaps would come back for the rose bagels everyone raves about, but my first visit was unimpressive. read more

This shiny new bakery is in it's soft opening phase and every time I walk by it's pretty busy, so it's been difficult to actually get anything to try. However, this morning, I went in about 11:30 am and they had Korean salt bread, some boules, cakes and a fresh batch of these round purple rice/cream cheese loaves that were right out of the oven! As I'm a salt bread fanatic after having been to the most amazing Jayeondo in Korea, I had to try the salt bread. It was super fluffy with a crisp bottom, but not as buttery tasting as I've had. It didn't approach my Korean favorite from Jayeondo (but then again nothing has -- not even other bakeries in Korea, so that was not meant as a ding!), but it was still quite good and I will buy it again! It was a little on the expensive side at $4.50 each or 3 for $12. At the recommendation of the staff, I also tried this purple rice bread that just came out of the oven, and boy oh boy, THAT was the winner! Super light and fluffy, and it was filled with a layer of fluffy cream cheese as well as my favorite sweetened, chewy purple rice (usually found in some Asian drinks)! This was so unique -- I've not had any bread that incorporated this rice yet and I loved it! The loaf was about the size of a grapefruit, something that two people could share. I hear it sells quickly when they have it, so now I'm gonna keep an eye out for it! About the location, there are a few small tables inside, but it really wasn't constructed to be a sit down restaurant. It is located in a nice open area though with plenty of places to sit outdoors. I can totally see sitting in the sunshine in the open plaza area, enjoying some of their goodies along with a Don't Yell at Me bubble tea that is also right there on a nice spring or summer day! I hope that they will have more goodies as they move past the soft opening stage. I advise going early, especially on weekends, for selection. Overall, I'm very excited about this new bakery! read more

Definitely need to come in early so you could snag the goodies, we came in a little later than expected but they were still some pastries to pick from. We got the cheesecake and that was yummy, we also snag the sourdough egg tart that was ok. There was 7 garlic herb shio pan left and we got 3, they were good but a little pricey not really worth the cost, as far as quality. They offer espresso drinks and whatnot. Sitting inside is not ideal, it's to cramp and limited. There is outside sitting 20ft away from store. Overall ok experience but definitely come early and be prepared to pay $$ read more

So I had to downgrade for at least one reason. I have bought more than a dozen Roseberry sourdoughs so far because it is my kid's staple. The bread had a generous amount of rose petals, cranberries (I think), and figs! But in all four that I bought over the weekend, the figs were completely gone and filled with fewer petals, but the price remained the same. read more

Reminds me of 85 degrees and tous le jours, and was pretty similar. Their prices are typically Seattle prices. I thought it was not bad but I went mid day/afternoon and I can tell it's way better fresh. Service was like normal, I thought it was interesting that in the display you tell them what you want and they make your tray. The packaging of everything is very neat and pretty. There's a good amount of seats inside but not for big groups, it's nice on sunny days to just sit outside there's also tables and seats there. read more

Overall very tasty! The purple rice bread was fun, there was purple rice and cream cheese filling but it was a little lopsided so it took eating a good chunk of the bread before discovering it.

I came here yesterday with a friend after seeing it on social media and wanted to try the pastries I saw in videos. I bought the garlic shiopan, 3 of the tarts, the nama sourdough, and the mango basque cheesecake. The cheesecake was alright, honestly nothing too crazy, and the shiopan had no crunch and was normal bread like. Halfway into eating the shiopan my dad found a long strand of hair baked into it. This didn't just happen in the shiopan but also the chocolate egg tart that I got. I am pretty disappointed after paying a good amount for these pastries and for finding (and chewing on) two strands of hair in two different pastries is appalling to me. I'm not sure how this happened and wanted to have a good experience but I was just really let down. read more
