    Quaint little bakery off of Alex Bell road, sort of hidden on the eastward facing side of the front row of shops. Good assortment of items, all made in-house. In addition to the pastries, they have true breakfast entrees like egg sandwich and french toast. I was also pleasantly surprised to see they have sandwiches and paninis for the lunch crowd. We tried a mix of things including an egg, cheese and bacon breakfast sandwich on a croissant, a ham and cheese croissant, half cherry half cream cheese danish, and a morning roll which is similar to a cinnamon roll. They don't have iced coffee or specialty coffee drinks, but do have drip coffee. Otherwise, all bottled beverages including water. We ate inside, and there are plenty of tables. We noticed a lot of people getting things to-go. The pastries were pretty good, but based on the reviews I was hoping it would be some of the best I've ever had, and that just wasn't the case. I would like to come back for lunch and try one of the paninis. Overall, very good assortment so there is surely something for every palate.

    I have heard great things about Boosalis Cafe for a long time and finally went there for coffee and pastries. There was quite a selection of delicious looking pastries to choose from so it was hard to narrow it down to two items! We ended up splitting a piece of coffee cake and a cherry & cheese danish which were both quite good. However, I was disappointed with the atmosphere of the bakery. For a high end bakery that calls itself "a sanctuary for those who appreciate the finest artisanal pastries and gourmet treats" I would expect more than plastic tablecloths and paper plates. The baked goods were very good so I probably will return, but only for carry out.

    The pastries were so flaky and delicious. My husband and I shared the Kougin Amann and it was incredible. It was so tender and sweet. We also split the chocolate croissant and it was very good but I wish it had more of the tasty chocolate inside. We split a cranberry walnut bread turkey sandwich and it was also very good. We also took home 4 different cookies and so far so good! Order at the counter and they will bring your sandwich to you. The bakery was very clean and not loud at all. Perfect pastries for our afternoon lunch. I will definitely come back!

    I don't recall how I originally learned about Boosalis; I think it was on some award list of best bakeries perhaps? Whatever the reason, I had it on my list of places to try when I was in Dayton early last year, but I wasn't able to make it there that visit. This time around, I couldn't miss out and went in on a weekday morning. Inside, I was greeted by a number of customers sitting around, eating pastries, and sipping on coffee. The pastry case in front was fully stocked with some very delicious looking croissants and other delights. We had a tough time deciding what to get - we wanted to try everything, but we didn't have the stomach space! After pondering for a while, we made our decision. Chocolate Croissant ($3.65) - Two small chocolate batons are baked into this pastry at the bottom, as is tradition. They are not too sweet and add a very nice cocoa richness that works well with the croissant. The rest of the croissant is buttery with well laminated layers that meld together but are also fluffy. The top few layers are crispy and well browned. They flake off easily in buttery flecks. I found this croissant to be pretty cheap for a chocolate croissant from an artisan bakery and overall found this to be a solid chocolate croissant in general. (4/5) Kouign Amann ($2.85) - This kouign amann is pretty small - around 2 inches across. There's melted caramelized sugar surrounding the edges and in a layer on the bottom. Additional sweetness from pearl sugar is added right in the center of the pastry. The pastry is very well laminated, with distinct layers that peel off easily. The dough seems to be salted a bit and has a somewhat bitter flavor to it. It doesn't seem like the dough itself is sweetened at all, so the middle portion is buttery, but not sweet. it's not nearly as buttery as the chocolate croissant though and there's larger air pockets compared to the croissant. There's a good crunch on the outside from both the browned dough and the sugar on the outside. (4/5) I can see why Boosalis Baking and Cafe is popular. Both pastries we tried were solid and I can easily recommend the place if you're looking for something nice for breakfast or just a treat for yourself.

    Kouign Amann

    Wow! We've driven by this pastry shop so many times but yesterday we stopped in. We told the server it was our first time in and she walked us through all their delicious options. She started with Kouign Amann - their specialty. And yes! Especially delicious!! We bought several pastries and a savory croissant (egg, ham and cheese). They have about 10 tables inside and some cute setups outside as well. We'll be back!

    Ham and cheese croissant. Crispy crunchy flaky buttery croissant, Swiss cheese crisp on the sheetpan and beautiful combination of ham and Swiss. It was gone before I remembered to take a picture. Scone pictured was absolutely the best scone. Not dry but moist and flavorful with love and the best ingredients.

    The best croissant ever!

    I had an order from Dayton Street Eats delivered recently and the experience was really good…read more I ordered The American Cheeseburger and the Street Fries. Order was delivered really fast and items were packaged carefully in a brown paper bag. Some white paper napkins came with the order, a pickle wedge wrapped in a plastic bag, and a small container of what looked like thousand island dressing sauce (presumably for the cheeseburger). The American Cheeseburger is two all beef patties, with American cheese, lettuce, ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, and some sliced pickles. Presentation was really good. The burgers were fried well done! The American Cheeseburger tasted very good! It was a little crispy along the edges. The pickles tasted a bit spicy. It's a really good burger and the price was reasonable. The Street Fries came in a paper cup and were well seasoned and fried perfectly. I used the container of thousand island sauce for the Street Fries since American cheeseburger already had enough condiments on it. The thousand island sauce is a little spicy but not too bad. I give Dayton Street Eats five stars. Delivery was prompt, food was fresh and really good, and the price seems fair considering similar fare at more mainstream establishments would probably be more expensive but with no greater quality. Highly recommended and I would patronize again!

    Amazing food. I've had the burger, Ruben and the salad and have never been disappointed. You'll be…read morehooked.
