    I love all the desserts here.... the pastry and coffee as well.... service is always on point to. The ambiance is chill and the only bad vibe would be some of the stuck up customers that I have witnessed in this bakery. I love their cakes as well I ordered one for a coworker who was promoted and they loved it.

    Hard to believe that I hadn't visited this place until now. It seems like there is so much hype about it I had to give it a try, even though I'm not a big bakery kind of guy. It was pretty much what I expected it to be. We both had croissants - mine was cheese and my wife's was peach. They were fine, but nothing spectacular.

    You walk in and there's so many bakery items that look super good. We really enjoyed the chocolate knot and fresh raspberry one!

    Second visit to the Birmingham location to introduce my sisters to this wonderful gem. Purchased my favs, almond croissant, chocolate croissant, and the beautiful chocolate raspberry pastry (mini cake)for my sister's birthday. The young woman assisting me was nice and very helpful. She even dressed the chocolate raspberry cake with a Happy Birthday.

    Met a friend for brunch and it was comfortable, bright and easy parking. Had the breakfast sandwich with kielbasa and it was good. Jasmine tea to drink. The price was reasonable. The box of 6 pastries I took home were $45 and change. All were fresh. The eclair was so so. The rest were good. My favorite was the chocolate almond croissant.

    Came to order pastries for a meeting that was coming up later in the day. Friday 6:30am and there were plenty of people sitting down having coffee with pastries already. But it was quiet and did not have to wait at all to get the pastries that I wanted for work. Regardless, pastries here do come with price tags. Got dozen pastries and paid almost $90. They do charge credit card transaction fee. However, pastries are really yummy and also heavy. Very much recommended for the events where you need to impress people. Also recommended for self treat occasionally, not often.

    MUST TRY ‼ This place is magical to say the least. They create the absolute best pastries, breads, and desserts I have ever had. This place easily rivals any bakery you've ever tried. My must try's are any of the savory croissants and the chocolate crouquant! The crouquant may not be the most beautiful thing in the case but it's absolutely amazing and was recommended to me by multiple employees. Additionally this place during the holidays looks straight out of a cute hallmark movie. It is cozy and the staff goes above and beyond. Seriously try it.

    Pastry Case

    I've gotten croissants from Cannelle three or four times at various farmer's markets and coffee shops around the area and have never been very impressed. The pastries here look absolutely scrumptious but the construction and techniques used leave a lot to be desired. I figured that I should probably try the original location to get the freshest and best croissants before I give my final judgement. It turned out pretty similar to what I have had previously. Almond Croissant ($5.50) - This is a twice baked almond croissant and I'm not sure why they don't specify it on the tag. It's dusted with powdered sugar and almond slices, with some frangipane baked hard on top. The lamination here is very poor, resulting in thick layers that stick together. This makes a croissant that is very dense and bready rather than light, fluffy and buttery. The interior does have a layer of almond paste that kind of melds into the croissant and is a bit hard to detect. The paste is on the gummy side. The croissant overall is very sweet and that's pretty much the defining taste. Galette Des Rois Slice ($6.00) - I didn't know what this was and had to ask (I've only seen New Orleans-style King Cakes before). It was explained to me as croissant dough sandwiching an almond paste. This pastry is very heavily almond flavored, which matches the promise. Once again, the croissant layers are quite doughy and tough. The almond paste is about half inch thick and is a bit gummy. Tastes good though, very sweet and almond-forward! My previous purchases involved the normal baked croissants, and I've always found that Cannelle overbakes them, resulting in a croissant that 's more crunchy than fluffy. I've also gotten a baguette from them once that I found to be extremely over salted - in fact it's the only baguette in recent memory that I couldn't finish because it was so difficult to eat. To be clear, the croissants at Cannelle aren't bad, they just don't seem to be as technique driven as bakeries with more traditional croissants. Considering that their logo includes the instagram symbol, it seems like they target that crowd with pastries that look really nice, but aren't necessarily the highest quality. Then again there are not a lot of bakeries in Metro Detroit that serve specialty croissants, so Cannelle is still an okay place to visit if you have that croissant craving.

    I stopped during the week for a coffee and cinnamon roll. The coffee is good. The cinnamon roll is excellent. The cinnamon roll is made with the buttery, croissant dough (yum). Plenty of cinnamon. Crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Yummm. Cannelle has my favorite croissant . The pastry display is always amazing. This location is so charming. It is my favorite Cannelle location. They have expanded it over the years, but it is small for the amount of business. It also tends to get loud. The service is excellent. They are friendly and accommodating. In the winter there are not enough inside tables. It can hit or miss if there is a table available. For that reason, I don't think it is great for work.

    Pistachio chocolate croissant ($7) and almond croissant $5.50) not flaky, but still delicious.

    I came early on a weekday because I heard great things about this bakery. I'm staying .5 miles away so, let's go! It was hard to decide. Everything looks delicious. The pastry chef/owner is award winning so I had to try at least two. There were several people dining in (Hello Canada wildfires!) and soft French music was playing. I ordered pistachio chocolate and almond croissants. Both delicious, but like Aaron B. wrote they were smashed down and soft. Not crisp and flaky like the croissants I am used to ordering from my local bakeries. At $7 and $5.50 each I probably won't order these again, but I will be back to try something else. Maybe dine in for breakfast next time.

    This is for the location at the Royal Oak Farmers Markets. Please let me know if I should move this but currently I don't see a listing for that one Had 3 different pastries, all were average to below average. They looked beautiful enough, instagram worthy, but as soon as I touched and bit into them, I could tell they were not made that day. Time had eroded the flakes of the black and blueberry into a soggy cold lump. The cinnamon roll was dry. Shame because I wanted to like them and I wanted my mouth and stomach to appreciate what my eyes did. I could see the potential. Sad I wasted that much money (~$7 each!) only to leave me wanting for a better pastry. The ham and cheese was the only acceptable one of the bunch. Maybe they were meant to be brought home to be reheated? If that's the case I should have been forewarned

    Any gluten free options?

    Hello Alaina - Thank you for your inquiry. We do produce several recipes that do not contain gluten, however cross-contamination is possible during production. I apologize for any inconvenience.

    Is it dog friendly?

    The inside is not, however, during warmer weather they will have a few tables outside. Depending on your pets disposition, the outdoor tables would probably be fine, pet would just have to wait outside.

    Do they offer gluten free options?

    Sadly no. Chef holds true to his French teachings, but did you know Macarons are Gluten free? They are! ....and Cannelle's are one of the best!

    Do they have non-dairy milk options?

    Sadly this establishment stays true to it's French roots and does not offer non dairy milk products. But they have plenty of tea options or you can bring your own product. The Authentic French pastries are worth it!

Will was phenomenal and truly made the experience. He was incredibly helpful while assisting with our order and his energy elevated the whole visit. He also shared that everything is made in house, which made the experience feel even more special. We ordered the Chicken Masala Sandwich, an Affogato, and a chocolate chip cookie. The Chicken Masala sandwich was absolutely delicious. The flavor profile tasted clean, fresh, and thoughtfully crafted. For the Affogato, we sampled several ice cream flavors before landing on vanilla, cookie butter, and dark chocolate. The cookie butter was the standout and absolutely phenomenal, but honestly any of the options would have been a great choice. The chocolate chip cookie was also incredible. I warmed it up in the oven after getting home and it completely took it to another level. If I had one recommendation, it would be offering warmed cookies in house because that made it next level. Overall, a great experience with standout food and exceptional service. Will alone made us want to come back.

The green tea is super hot, really needs two sleeves. Took the top off to cool down the scalding water some. My husband said his oat milk latte isn't so good, he said he's good if we never come back at all. He was confused how a simple drink could come out so badly. My green tea tastes like Lipton, no hint of green tea flavoring to me.

Was there in early June and the coffee and service were both good, as was the savory pastry I got. The main issue with this place is the noise... not for the usual reason in coffeeshops where they play music too loud, but it's a raucous and busy place, which speaks well of the business. But far worse than noisy conversation there's this bell on both the front and back entrances that plays a little five note electric tune every time someone comes in or leaves... Why is it there? Why is it needed? The fact that only a few people have noted it here perhaps speaks more of our noise-polluted lives than anything else, but it's maddening as this thing goes off literally every minute or more, constant, tintinnabulations of the bell, bell, bell, bell, bell... There was an employee taking a break on his phone listening to YouTube videos out loud, too... I guess we're all just so used to this now. So if you want a quiet cafe to get work done, this ain't it. Maybe it's more of a Central Perk scene, with people meeting socially, all who liked the place before it became cool.
