Chaupain Bakery is a French bakery. It is owned by a husband and wife team. It is a small chain. This is the only one we have been to and it is amazing. Parking is easy and the prices are fair for what you get. This is not just a bakery, they also serve Breakfast and lunch and what we had was great. We went back once. They have great artisan breads, pastries, and even quiches. It is all fresh and all baked there. We first learned about them at the Farmer's Market in Dana Point. We got some bread and a few almond pistachio croissants. We knew we had to find it while in town. The service was so nice and friendly. The place is super clean and there are tables for eating. It is all just so cute and it smells so good. All of the bread and pastries we had were great. But we really loved their breakfast and lunch. We had a baked baguette with the best butter and homemade preserves. It is called the La Tartine. Their sunrise croissant is great. It has scrambles eggs, the best cheddar cheese and a pesto aioli. You can add avocado or bacon for a just a couple of dollars more. Their Quiche is a must try. It has mushroom bacon leek with ham or bacon or they have a spinach one that also has cheese. For lunch try their Kaskrout Merguez sandwich which has Pan roasted merguez sausage, Tunisian salad of cucumber, tomato, red onion, extra virgin olive oil, and harissa all served on a toasted baguette which is so good. We got an extra to take to our hotel. It was all great, from start to finish. read more

5/21/26 Got pistachio, almond croissants & a mixed berry bateau, service is friendly, this location has a bigger indoor seating & a much bigger outdoor patio-refreshing! It's in a plaza where Pavilions is so parking is free but shared. The pastries are delicious' scrumptious as per usual. I like the ambiance here compared to the one in Laguna Hills (but their staff are super friendly over there) Great experience overall read more

Wow wow wow Chaupain did not disappoint Came here for mother's day for brunch and my mom sure was happy. We were greeted by the nicest girls working at the pastry case and they explained how to order. They had such a wide variety of pastries and breakfast/lunch items. I also love that they were giving out samples of different pastries. Everything looked so good it was so hard to pick! We ended up getting the mother's day special omelette, french dip sandwich, chicken pesto sandwich, and pistachio croissant. Everything was spot on and you can tell everything was made fresh. I will definitely be back to try out more of their menu! read more

It's dangerous to have this bakery near the bank, grocery & hardware stores. I'm tempted way too often! The pastries are laminated perfectly so they are flaky while never dry. The selection of food and drinks is large. It's a great place to meet friends or get food-to-go. The coffee drinks are "okay" and can take some time, so if you get drinks to-go, be prepared to wait a little bit during the crowded times. There's seating outside, as well as inside. read more

This place is fast becoming one of my favorite bakeries. I tried some its pastry items at the Claremont Farmers Market and also tried some of its food at its Laguna Niguel location few weeks ago. This is the closest location to my house, although it's still kind of far. I just need to try its original location in Laguna Hills to complete my journey. This place has some amazing croissants. I am really impressed with its pistachio and almond croissants. They were both super buttery, fresh and packed with goodness. Pistachio croissant seems to be one of the most popular items here. Its Chocolate Elfroy was also excellent. It's a chocolate croissant with vanilla custard and almond. Another item I like is its Cinnamon Cream Cheese Cruffin, which is something I got at every location I visited. I haven't tried any food at this location but was impressed with its shakshouka and eggs benedict at the Laguna Niguel location. This is a smaller location than Laguna Niguel but still had decent amount of outdoor seating. read more

The pain au chocolate is superbly laminated dough. The French baguette had zero flavor and we ended up sharing it with the birds. read more

Came here on a Friday at noon and it was busy! Practically every table was filled with people and there was a line. You order at the back of the line and pay up front. I loved that they had free samples!!! I got to try their apple pie dessert, passionfruit eclair and pistachio croissant. My tummy is rumbling just thinking about it. They were all SOOO GOOD. Not too sweet, not artificial and just delightful. I got the chocolate elfroy and strawberry envelope. These also hit it out of the park. The pastry was flaky and fluffy. The custard was abundant. The strawberries were fresh. Every single bite was swoon worthy and their presentation was superb. They also have savory sandwiches and open-faced sandwiches in their cooler case. I'm quite intrigued to try those as well! This place is such a treat - every single pastry is perfection, you really can't go wrong. I cant wait to share this place with more of my friends and family. read more

They have quite a variety of pastries, breads, breakfast items and kefir yogurt. We've really come to enjoy the various flavors of their kefir yogurt - and they apparently have no sugar added? I've tried a few croissants and found them to be hit-or-miss. read more

The feeling of stepping into this tiny was so sweet. The smell of bread alone spoke for itself about how good the pastries were but honestly I was more blown away by how family oriented the service made me feel! When we were on the fence about some pastries, the person we talked to gave us some to try for free - that speaks volumes on the confidence that they have in their product! I'm so sorry I don't remember his name but all of the sales associates on the team are really very sweet. I bought these for my sister's tea party and was in such a rush to show them off, I didn't get a chance to take some pictures for this review! The pastries got so many compliments and were the first things to be wiped clean off the table. It's a shame that I didn't take pictures of the sweets I purchased but I hope that my review entices you enough to go there and see everything for yourself! This place already is slammed with customers but it should read more

Natalie and Taylor are the kindest people I've ran into in OC/Newport. Natalie being very informative with what's offered at Chaupain and then Taylor being super respectful and sweet. They're a great pair to have working for this establishment. I also love how light I feel with the meals I eat here. There's plenty of flavor offered here, the pastries are why you'd expect from a bakery of this tier. I'd give all the hours to those girls asap(if they wanted it) cause they're the main reason I'd keep coming back. Customer service is key to success for restaurants. read more

AMAZING!! Everything I have tried from here is delish. You can't go wrong with any of it!

what a wonderful bakery they use all french flour, and their pastries are perfectly flaky. i ended up getting the jalapeño and cheese pastry, guava cruffin, and salmon cucumber tomato toast. all of them were delicious. my friends loved them too. the displays were beautiful, and i love how this is a great place to just hang around; the atmosphere is intentional. you can also pick up your weekly fresh bread here. tons of selections, from focaccia and sourdough to baguettes. they have seasonal drinks, quiches, desserts, and more! i also want to mention the girl with the cool blonde hair working the a.m. shift. she is seriously so sweet. i took a long time looking at all the selections, and she was patient and welcoming. she even offered customers samples of her favorite pastry. i couldn't sleep the previous night and decided to try this bakery as a pick-me-up. i drove far to get to this area and really appreciated the kindness from her and the rest of the staff. all smiles at 7 a.m. (: it made my day. read more

What a cute place to visit for lunch! I came here with a group of friends and tried the Kaskrout Merguez Sandwich and the Chicken Pesto Sandwich, along with some pastries and other yummy offerings. The kaskrout was my favorite of the two sandwiches - the sausages were so flavorful, and the dipping sauce was sublime. I might have scraped the bowl clean! The salad that came with it was bright and fresh, with just a slight drizzle of dressing - just the way I like it! We came here to celebrate a birthday, and the staff heard us singing and brought out a slice of the German chocolate cake for the birthday boy - how nice! I went back and bought a chocolate chip cookie, a pack of cinnamon cookies, a pistachio croissant, and a blueberry tart. Everything was so delicious. Prices are pretty reasonable as well. There are plenty of places to sit inside and out. OH! They also have a pretty extensive drink menu, as well as some RTE goods as well. And they sell coffee beans! read more

WOW!...a beautiful stop and go bakery. WOW! would also be the word I would use to describe all the food I tried. The sandwiches were amazing - tried the chicken pesto and the kaskrout sandwich. Both were great but I preferred the kaskrout more bc the marinara sauce it came with was so good. Also had way too many pastries in one day. Carb overload but so good. The vanilla cheesecake, tiramisu we're all great. We came here for a birthday and the staff actually gave our friend a piece of cake for his birthday. So nice since it's an order and sit down kind of place. I also tried the chocolate chip scone which was flat but soooo good. There Ferreo rocher cream puff was *chefs kiss*! And the blueberry tart...so flavorful. I couldn't resist. Now excuse me while I go burn off the carbs and calories. I want to come back for more ASAP! read more

Great customer service. I preferred the cinnamon Bundt cake. I loved the opera cake but the top and bottom part of the cake was good but I did feel like it overpowered the inside of the cake. The Bundt cake was moist and icing was delicious. read more

Tried out Chaupain Bakery today and it was a lovely start to the morning! We tried the ham and Swiss croissants. I asked them to be warmed and they were still pretty cold in the middle. I think they would have been a 10/10 if warmed up more but I'm going to give them a 7/10 since they were cold. Loved the crunch and they fill it with a good amount of ham and cheese! I would try again and ask for it to be double warmed!! The pastry selection looked to die for. I must come back and try more goodies! The desserts all looked incredible, the pistachio croissant is next on my list, and the coffee eclair! I feel like I need to come back and try more to give it another solid review. I also really want to try the lattes! Overall we had a nice morning and a good experience, but I can't say much until I give it another shot!!! read more

Chaupain Bakery - Treat selection in August 2025 - Bakeries Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Ive been wanting to try this bakery for awhile now. Finally got a chance to stop by on a Friday afternoon. They were the too busy that afternoon with a wide range of pastries left to choose from. We chose the jalapeno cheddar croissant, ham & cheese croissant, the coconut mango pastry, and the berry cream pastry. The worker was nice enough to throw in a few more items so I'm not too sure what theyre called but they were good. All the pastries were super flaky and buttery. They were all my favorite just because the outside was super crispy and flaky. I had some leftover the next day and they were still really good! Its comparable to the pastries in Paris. I will definitely be back to try the other items. read more

Yum. Yum. Yum. What a find. The bakery has a huge selection. The service was excellent. We changed our minds a few times because we kept on seeing better and better things to eat and our server was pleasant and patient with us and we had difficulty narrowing down what we wanted. The ambiance was classy, chill, Christmasy. The food was fantastic. They definitely give Portos some stiff competition. I wish I lived closer because I would swing by here more often read more

After lunch at nearby Fashion Island, we stopped by Chaupain to pick up some sweets to take home. There was a short line with a few people ahead of us. We grabbed a monkey bread loaf, banana walnut loaf, ham & cheese croissant, pistachio croissant, almond croissant, and a slice of chocolate cake--everything came out to $55. Our favorites were the monkey bread and the almond croissant (generous with the almond paste). The bakery is located in the Newport Hills Shopping Center, right by Taco Rosa and Pavilions. read more

So many delicious looking French pastries!! My favorite was the Paris Brest, it was a crunchy hazelnutty perfection. Also got the salmon toast which was alright, the bread was a little too tough so I was having a hard time eating it without all the toppings coming off the bread. But would definitely be back to try all their other pastries! read more

Absolutely amazing and quaint place with extremely high quality bread and patisserie. I've been looking at this place for a while and finally made my way over here before work. From the variety of fresh made bread, the exquisite patisserie, quiche, sandwiches, it's just amazing. Started with a few things, but can't wait to be back and try more. I asked my server what she recommended, and she said the cream cheese pastry - didn't disappoint. I also had the pistachio cream pastry. OMG. The layers and flakiness, absolutely amazing. Not overly sweet. Very delicate. My mouth is watering as I think about it. I'm not a huge fan of sweets, but I'm obsessed when it's a bakery making stuff like this fresh and with stunning quality. Can't wait to go back! read more

If you go to Chaupain Bakery Newport Beach: Come hungry and emotionally prepared: The saucisse breakfast skillet? An actual savory dream. I almost proposed to it. Bring a lamb lover: My husband got the Kaskrout merguez sandwich and was fully in love. But real talk, if you're not into lamb, don't come for it. Know what you're ordering, babes. Rejoice in the space: Seating for days, not like Laguna Niguel. No hovering awkwardly with your number in hand. We love that. Bring the toddler: Mine devoured the silver dollar pancakes and... plot twist... ate some berries. She normally treats fruit like an enemy. Do not skip dessert: I tried the white chocolate lemon cake (I think?) and the Paris Brest and I have zeroooo words. So good I ascended. Like, sit-down-and-stare-at-the-wall-after levels of good. Pack pastries for the road: We drive in from SGV and always leave with a beautiful white box with a Chaupain sticker on. Worth every mile. But do the contents make it back to SGV? That is a very good question... Mentally prepare to come back: This is now a twice-a-month situation. Manifesting an SGV location even though I'm kinda joking (but also not). read more

The turkey croissant sandwich had no flavor. The croissant was super oily and overly flaky, and the turkey itself was dry. So it was disappointing to spend $12 on it. The opera cake was also nothing special. I tried a couple of other items, and honestly, nothing really stood out. The woman helping me was very kind, which I appreciated. I might come back, but I think I'd need to figure out what the "right" thing to order is. read more

I personally prefer the Laguna hills location over this one. The service was "meh" as i waited quite a 30 minutes for a croissant, quiche, and pastries. Maybe they were understaffed. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and try again. That said, Everything is good here, but the customer service. I highly recommend the quiche and croissants. All excellent... everything else is okay. read more

Chaupain has become one of my favorite bakeries for croissants. This location recently opened up in Newport Beach! Thank goodness! The location in Laguna Hills is small. Parking is plentiful here, since it's shared with Pavilions. When you step foot inside the bakery, you're greeted with a whole array of pasteries. Everything looks tempting, but don't go overboard! The croissants are amazing here! One bite, and it melts in your mouth! The croissants are super flakey and filled inside to the brim. My favorite is the pistachio croissant. There's not a lot of seating inside the store, but don't worry! There are plenty of tables outside to enjoy your pasteries. I also ordered their sunrise croissant for brunch. Every bite was delicious, and had so much flavor. Service was nice, and they did their best to move the line along. I can't recommend this bakery enough! read more

Fantastic French restaurant and bakery in Newport Beach! You'll first see all the delectable pastries and freshly baked breads, and they all look so good! I had to try the chocolate almond custard croissant, and the pistachio croissant first. Both with a filling and amazing! And for lunch I ordered the California Club Sandwich with pistachio pesto aioli, which comes with a side salad. I have to say that this is the best pesto spread version I've ever tasted! For me pesto has too much of an overpowering flavor, but this one paired with pistachio is perfection! I'm gonna have to try everything else now! Can't wait! read more

Omelette 9.52/10- this French style omelette was so good! They made it with gruyere cheese, lamb sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers and spinach - all the ingredients complemented each other so well. The cheese was perfectly melty and mixed with the lamb sausage, it added such unique flavor. The breakfast potatoes on the side were seasoned well and perfectly crisp on the outside, but soft on the inside. Quiche 9.47/10- I'm actually not a fan of quiches but this one was incredible! The combination of mushroom, bacon, and leek worked so well together, and I loved how the inside was super fluffy while the exterior had this perfect crisp that gave it such a nice texture. It came with a side salad that was delicious and I loved the lemon dressing they put on it. Pistachio Croissant 9.54/10- this was honestly amazing! I heard this bakery is incredibly popular for their croissants, specifically their pistachio one, and I understand the hype. The croissant was huge and so perfectly flaky. The pistachio paste inside was super fresh and had so much flavor. I loved how they topped it with crushed pistachios which added such a nice crunch! Opera Cake 8.43/10- this classic French layered cake was really good. The chocolate ganache on top was super rich and I loved how you could see all the different layers. You could really taste the coffee flavor in it which I enjoyed. Fruit Tart 4.32/10- this was pretty disappointing. The custard in the middle was good but they put way too much whipped cream on top which just overwhelmed everything. The raspberries weren't fresh at all and the tart shell wasn't very flavorful either.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ I was recommended to go to Chaupain Bakery and I'm so glad that I got around to trying it as it was pretty good. They have a huge array of pastries to choose from. The service was great as well. Expect a long line- but it definitely moves fast! They forgot about our quiche for a while but it wasn't too bad as when we inquired about it, they brought it out quite quickly. Instagram: @hungrytamale read more
