While the sandwiches were delightful, the service was not. The woman behind the counter was not feeling it today. She didn't even bother to smile or welcome us when we entered Bree'osh. Thankfully their sandwiches made up for her not-so-pleasant demeanor. I had the ham and cheese baguette. Yum. The bread was fresh and had a nice bite to it. The arugula complemented the ham and cheese perfectly. My other half had the croque monsieur and he said that it was the best one he's had in a long time. The bread was thick and had a decent amount of ham inside. The arugula side salad was a good size too. The inside was typical of a small cafe; it was clean and organized. Too bad they didn't have a lot of pastries anymore when we stopped by. I gave them a 4 coz of the food, 3 for the service, 3.5 for the value for your money so it averaged a 4 more or less. read more

Came here Friday 05/13 Reuben and the cashier was so kind and provided the best customer service! They made my mom and I's day and trip to SB this weekend. Thank you so much read more

I came here four years ago and have never forgotten the amazing breakfast sandwich I ate on that visit. When I found out I was going to be back in the area, this place was top of my list. Bree'osh for breakfast every day! Thanks to my previous visit I knew exactly what to order: a morning bun and the egg sandwich. Sometimes things don't live up to your memories, but that was not the case here: the food was exactly as delicious as I remembered. The morning bun was slightly sweet and flaky. The sandwich has added greens and onions, but they didn't detect from the scrumptious eggs and bread at all. Why then am I docking a star? I just can't get over the price. $12 for a breakfast sandwich doesn't seem too bad, but the portion was so tiny. Supposedly there were two eggs, but it sure didn't look like it. I felt like I'd eaten a snack, not a meal. On my previous visit you got a side salad which made things feel more substantial, but now it's just a bit of veg on the bun. Add in the pastry, taxes, and tip and we're looking at almost $20 for a snack. A very delicious snack! But not a very filling one. I'll still come by again the next time I'm in town. The food really is that good. But I'll go somewhere else when I'm hungry. read more

Went here when visiting Santa Barbara for a day getaway. The ambience of this small downtown of Santa Barbara is very calm and peaceful. Went here right before the rush hour . Glad that we could secure seats before more people coming in. I ordered salmon smoke tarting, some croissants , and take home a box of variety breads! They are so good and freshly bake! Their tartine is to die for. Too bad they ran out avocado toast when I came , so maybe it's a sign to visit again next time ! read more

Well what can I say? My quick jaunt of a trip to Santa Barbara and my cousins friends recommended this sweet cafe. Located in the hustling downtown strip area close to Montecito is this real lovely and quaint cafe. Everyone was elated with their order as I was. I ordered the Artichoke Tomato Sandwich & Salad , It was Artichoke heart, goat cheese, tomatoes, Kalamata olives. Served on a brioche bun. And let me tell you, it was super. Had sort of a Greek twist to it and I really enjoyed it. The service was awesome. I had mentioned to the folks running it that spoke in Spanish that I did not care for the coffee, and they quickly made me another. So I was really appreciated of their kindness and service. Hands down I would revisit this place in a heartbeat! read more

The Croissant breakfast sandwiches are the best! Also enjoyed a refreshing matcha latte to start a road trip down to LA. It's a small location with the majority of seating outdoors but it's a perfect spot for a grab-and-go or for a nice morning outdoor patio style dine in option. Service is friendly as well! read more

not a huge menu but best croissants in town, get there early before they sell out or check out their other spot on the westside

Quite possibly.....no.....better yet. ABSOLUTELY the BEST croissant ive ever had! The croissant alone is a perfect 10 but when you add that toasted almond up top it's like "why yes i would love perfection stacked on top of another perfection" read more

Bree'osh - Montecito - Choco Almond Croissant - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Bree'osh is great. It's great enough where I'll visit everytime I'm in the area. Food quality, service, and location are all great. Most of the food had the same recurring theme of being light and flakey. *They are very popular so there's a chance some items will be sold out if you arrive too late. I visited at 8:30 and some items were already gone. FOOD Mushroom and Cheese Croissant - the croissant alone is so good. The added mushrooms and cheese make it even more amazing. Smoked salmon and avocado sandwich on brioche - the bun looks a lot heavier than it actually is. It's uniquely light and the sandwich is tasty. A light side salad is also included. Omelette with ham, gruyere, mushrooms - the eggs are light and fluffy... uniquely fluffy. The omelette would've been better if the ham were chopped up and if I had chosen a better cheese. I love gruyere, but maybe not in an omelette. FAVORITES Mushroom and cheese croissant Croissant Cinnamon Roll Eggs - I'd probably opt to add eggs to sandwiches vs getting an omelette. SERVICE Great. Friendly, accommodating, and Efficient PARKING This is a nice area. There's plenty of great parking (free). read more

We absolutely love this place! Gabriel took excellent care of us. Breakfast sandwich was out of this world and the coffee is maybe the best coffee in montecito. Highly recommend! read more

Came here on a Tuesday morning around 09:30. Parking was abundant and there was no line. Patrons were enjoying their breakfast outdoors. We ordered a croissant, an almond croissant, turkey sandwiches, and ham sandwiches (jambon beurre). The croissants are insanely perfect. On the display, they looked so beautiful and unreal, we had to buy one. The height on those bad boys are next level. So light and flaky and so many buttery layers *chef's kiss* The sandwiches are delicious. Just your typical ham and butter on a French baguette. Personally I really like the baguette but for others it might be too crusty. The turkey one was really good too. There were capers, arugula, and mustard. There is a lot of free parking in front and across from the bakery. They have tables outdoors in this cute patio arrangement. A short walk away is Butterfly Beach, the perfect place to enjoy your breakfast if you don't want to stick around the bakery. Next time, I want to try their other pastries (kouign amann or brioche!!), other French offerings (croquettes monsieur or quiche), and buy a couple of their specialty breads. read more

Delicious EVERYTHING! I'm talking coffee, bread, breakfast, cookies and pastries . Wish they were in Ventura!

I read all of the reviews and Bree'osh sounded like a sweet Montecito bakery stop on our first trip to town. It is indeed charming and right on the main street. We lucked out on street parking so it was just a block or so walk. I tried the morning bun - I'm always a sucker for a morning bun - and this one did not disappoint. Great structure outside, rolled in cinnamon and sugar. Soft inside. Great bite and yummy. read more

Came here for breakfast, and the ambiance was relaxing with plenty of outdoor seating. The pastries were so flaky, and it was hard to limit myself to just a few to try. They have more varieties available than what's listed on their menu, based on seasonal ingredients. Today they had a passionfruit brioche and apple turnover that weren't listed on the menu. For their breakfast sandwiches, my partner wanted to try the croissant breakfast sandwich (with a sunny side up egg, swiss cheese and house-made béchamel), with a choice of crimini mushrooms or uncured ham (he opted for both for an additional $2), and I ordered the Breakfast Brioche (Two soft scrambled organic eggs with Emmental cheese, special sauce, caramelized onions & arugula). Everything was delicious, and judging by how many locals are frequenting the bakery, they are not struggling for business. I just felt bad for the employees who have to turn a blind eye to all the people bringing in their dogs to order their food when there are plenty of places to secure your dog right outside. read more

A great little bakery in Montecito with wonderful breads, pastries, croissants and a good selection of toasts to please your fancy. I got the avocado toast with egg sunny-side up. Normally it is served on ciabatta bread. It hasn't arrived from their bakery yet so they subbed sourdough. The avocado was served fork crushed under a bed of watermelon radish topped with a lovely sunny egg ready to run sprinkled with crushed pepper. A perfect way to start my day! We also got the smoked salmon tartine. This toast is also normally served on ciabatta bread but was subbed with sourdough spread with a light cream cheese under the smoked salmon topped with cherry tomatoes and capers. Smoked salmon is always delicious if you're into it. Loved it! The mushroom and cheese croissant looked and smelled delicious. Upon cutting into it, the beautiful waft of mushroom and cheese permeated my nose. Mmmm. I should have stolen a bite. Look at the French toast. Isn't it beautiful! The crust on it is marvelous. I mean literally, I could marvel at its beauty. I love bread! My son wouldn't let me have a bite :/ Basking in the morning sun outside on this sunny chilly morning made for a great start. Thanks Bree'osh! read more

ABSOLUTELY heavenly!!! My friends and I ordered the eggs and bacon brioche and my goodness, I've never tasted eggs so fluffy and out-of-this-world! It is a bit pricey but I thought the meal was well worth it! The croissant was fluffy but nothing different from what I'm used to. Unfortunately, when we came, it was really packed and a lot of the items were sold out by the time we arrived. The line does move at a decent rate and you can pre-order online as well. There are some tables outside to sit and enjoy your food! Parking- Free street parking. Restrooms- None. Nearest one is at the gas station down the street. read more

So glad we made a point to grab breakfast at Bree'osh. I thought it was kinda funny having the name phonetically spelled out like that. Then I met the proprietor and turns out she really was French! Salmon Tartine with Buckwheat Sourdough was very good. I'm not sure if it's because of the bread, the cheese used, the ripe tomatoes... It just all come together beautifully. Croissant was warm and flaky. Latte is strong and fortifying. read more

4.75/5 STARS Around April of 2021 when things were just opening up from COVID, I came upon this place and omg I have been craving this place since then! I am such a sucker for french flaky fatty goodness and this place was no different (: We shared * Brioche breakfast sandwich with bacon - fluffy brioche with egg, cheese, and argula. Probably the best combo if you enjoy meat! * Croissant breakfast croissant with both ham and mushrooms - definitely get both ham and mushroom despite the extra cost. They add to the taste for sure with that extra savoriness * Morning bun - similar to a donut but with cinnamon and way more flakiness. Their most popular item for a reason!!! * Hot Lavender Latte - could not taste the lavender very well so would not recommend Street parking was only available and no public restrooms available. Quick counter service and there was plenty of outdoor seating to observe doggos hehe. If I lived close by, I would be here multiple times a week. read more

We stopped in Montecito today on our way home from Santa Barbara. Service patio. We will definitely stop by again on our next trip up north.

Love this amazing bakery! Waiting in the hot sun was well worth it due to the delicious payoff of Bree'osh morning bun and cinnamon roll. I haven't had actual bread or sugar in 18+ months. I knew that if I were to have a cheat bread it would have to be special and decadent. The morning bun from Bree'osh is all that and more! It's a good thing that it's nearly 100 miles away because I'd visit weekly! The morning bun is flaky, buttery, sugary (but not too much), and the ideal breakfast pastry. A close runner up is the cinnamon roll because it is also flaky, buttery, and yummy! Due to the pandemic they only allow one customer in at a time. They are very careful and it is greatly appreciated. The sweet lady that helped us was so patient and gave such good explanations of the different pastries. I'll definitely return to Bree'osh! read more

The line was long but the employees worked so efficiently!! Thumbs up to the team! There was a nice set up with tables for those that wanted to enjoy the nice weather eating their delicious pastry or breakfast sandwich with their coffee. My boyfriend and I ordered the bacon and egg sandwich. We were bummed because we didn't realize we had to ask for croissant or the brioche bread, we instead got a slice of bread. The slice of bread was very amazing though! It was very fresh and fluffy. It was maybe some sort of an egg bread. We still really enjoyed it. The scrambled egg was a little runny and the bacon was perfect. No skimping at all! I ordered a box of pastries to bring back home of course!!! I picked out a couple croissants, different cinnamon rolls, chocolate croissants and almond croissants to share with friends and family. Perk- 10% off for first responders!!! Can't wait for the seasonal fruit danishes to be back!! You do have to know what you want in terms of pastries because you can't look at the case, it's a little far. So make sure you look at Yelp pictures to help you out! Have to come back every time I am visiting Santa Barbara. read more

The coffee was good and the scones delicious, but the staff came across like prisoners of war. I tried to engage them in small talk and all I got back was ennui and hipster scowls. Maybe they hate their jobs, but I can think of worse places to work. I'll give it another try next time I visit my mother in law, but based on my visit, I'd probably try another place. read more

The ham and cheese croissants are mushy. Not at all good. Sadly, they used to be good.

Cute Cafe in a friendly part of town. Their breakfast sandwiches and croissants are fresh and delicious. Their avocado tartine / avocado toast wasn't the best I've had... something was missing. But it was still good and filling. Safe bet: go with any of their breakfast sandwiches or croissants. Also their almond croissant was great - not too sweet and heavy but still a great dessert. read more

We tried the Croque Madame and Ham and cheese croissant, and had a mocha with oat milk. We sat outside at one of their socially distanced tables, and the whole atmosphere was very cute and felt safe. The ham and cheese croissant was AMAZING. The pastry was sooo buttery and flaky. The moment you cut into the croissant, you can see the numerous tiny layers coming apart, showing just how light and non-oily this pastry is. The ham and cheese was flavorful but not too salty. The Croque Madame had a perfectly poached runny egg on the top of a thick brioche that had melted grilled cheese on the top. The ham and cheese on the inside was very good as well. Overall, it was just a very delicious brunch and I definitely would come back for different pastries- or maybe the same :P. read more

We spent a couple days in Santa Barbara on vacation and while we were there, this was our breakfast spot. The egg & bacon brioche is pure perfection. I mean it! If you're ever in the area, you have to try it. There's isn't much room inside but there are tables outside. It was never packed while we were there because a lot of people seemed to grab breakfast or pastries to go. I would literally drive down to Santa Barbara again just to have that egg & bacon brioche! I definitely recommend here. read more

A nice local bakery with mostly French viennoiserie items and coffee drinks. Just off the 101 frwy, it's a nice place to stop by and grab a morning bun or almond croissant and a latte. Service is friendly and the locals are too. read more

Yelp...I'm hella disappointed. The website says a side salad comes with the breakfast sandwich but the cashier just told me NO...so I had to beg and pay for a side salad in front of everyone and I feel embarrassed. Update your website. This is pathetic. False advertising is foul...you know this. Other than that, the eggs are VERY soft and creamy, and the brioche bun is all shiny and super buttery. It could have been one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had thus far in life (Egg Tuck in LA is very close), but the embarrassment of it all... Not sure if I'll be back. To the owner: it doesn't matter even if you must raise your prices...cause for many of us, money is no option when it comes to a good dining experience. But don't nickel and dime people. Don't sell a good dining experience short. People make time out of their day to support your business, so make sure it's the best possible experience. We could have gone anywhere else, but we supported you. If the website says items come with a certain meal, it should be honored. As a matter of fact, raise the prices if you have to and include a side salad with everything. Elevate the experience. Do whatever by any means necessary to make the customer not regret his or her choice. read more

Perfection!! My boyfriend and I came to Bree'osh for a day trip to Santa Barbara from LA and this was our first stop. It was everything we wanted and more! We got a croissant, the Bree'Osh Breakfast Sandwich, and a Three Egg Omelette with mushrooms, gruyere, and spinach. The croissant was delicate, crispy on the outside, and airy on the inside with just enough softness and chew - simple done right! The omelette was also done very well; they were extremely generous with the mushrooms and it was well flavored. The egg was soft and buttery. The bree'osh breakfast sandwich was my favorite!! As someone who loves burgers, this was exactly what I wanted for brunch. It was so tasty and very filling, and the brioche bread was amazing! I wish the egg was a little bit saltier, but it was not hard to add salt myself. Overall, 5 stars for sure! We can't wait to come back! read more

Wonderful and freshly baked bread truly makes their dishes incredible. I loved that the breakfast sandwich came with eggs done Gordon Ramsey style, very fluffy and moist. My friend got the madame and it looked amazing. Next time looking forward to pastries! read more

I was looking for a pastry place for breakfast and when I read about this place, I knew I had to come here when we were in town. I love french pastries and am very particular about them. On the first day, we went to the one in Montecito and the second day we went to the one near downtown Santa Barbara. In two visits We had: -brioche breakfast sandwich with smoked salmon added -Croque madam -almond croissant - brioche with almond -cheddar scone - mushroom and cheese croissant -ham and cheese croissant Needless to this was a lot of pastries in two days but no regrets, they were all delicious. Their croissants tasted like the ones in Japan or in France. The eggs were scrambled perfectly in my brioche breakfast sandwich. I will definitely come back whenever I am in town again. read more

Ever since Emily in Paris, I've been craving French pastries. I had high hopes before visiting Bree'osh because of the high ratings on Yelp. We had the breakfast sandwich, the Morning Bun and lavender latte. I thought the breakfast sandwich was good, the brioche was very soft and fragrant, but not $15 good. The morning bun was beautiful and flaky, but it's a bit too dry for me. The lavender latte was ok. The coffee was pretty weak and too light for my taste. read more

We came here and got breakfast to go because the weather just was not conducive to sitting outside. We got two breakfast sandwiches and shared them. The breakfast sandwich on the brioche was a three to me, and I think it's really a matter of taste. The brioche was very good, the eggs were very good, the arugula was a little too spicy and other than that, just wasn't really flavorful. But the other breakfast we got was the breakfast croissant and we only got ham because I'm not a fan of mushrooms. It was unbelievably delicious. And I would have given four and a half rather than a four if I could because that was so good. The service was excellent it would have been really nice to sit outside and people watch as we ate but again the weather sucked which certainly wasn't their fault. The next time we would just get two croissant breakfasts (which again was delicious and flaky and light and everything on them was perfect.) read more

Where do I begin. The food was mediocre at best -- the avocado toast was so tough it couldn't be cut, even with a knife. The pastry was dry and flavorless and the coffee was watery. Probably the worst breakfast place we have ever eaten. read more

My husband and I have a long list of places that we love to visit whenever we're in Santa Barbara (these days, to visit my brother). Deviating from the list can be a bit trial-and-error because if we don't love a place, we feel like we missed an opportunity to eat at one of our favorites. Fear not, though, as Bree'osh exceeded everyone's expectations! It's in a nice spot in Montecito with some outdoor seating and a little parklet area. They were very organized with spaced markers on the ground for distancing. Inside there's just enough room for one party to order at a time. They have a screen up and the payment dongle is on the customer side so it was an easy transaction. I got a green tea - I could tell from the boxes that it would be high quality and it was. A nice pyramid teabag with just the right amount of leaves and space for them to expand. It sounded like the coffee was pretty good too. My brother and I both ordered the Croque Madame - which was a good size with a nice side salad. It was delicious - just the right amounts of flaky brioche, creamy bechamel and the egg on top was nice and jammy. My brother felt like they could have used a slightly saltier cheese, which is a fair note. My husband got a bacon and egg brioche roll and said it was like a love letter to the egg. He said the scrambled egg a great custardy texture. Really delicious food. We'll definitely be back and I think I'll try a tartine next time. read more
