    I came by shortly after closing. Fortunately the shop owner still took my order. She was very kind. I did expect limited availability. I ordered a Thai tea, hazelnut and raspberry choux and an original canele. I liked the raspberry flavor the best. The choux would have tasted better if it was fresh, this I know. I was just not a fan of the flavoring. The canele however is good and big. Each treat was $4.25 and if you buy a certain amount, there's a discount. I got $1 off for buying 4.

    Ordered catering from this spot for a company event and they were amazing! The owner went above and beyond working with our business to make sure everything with our order went amazing. The dubai chocolate choux and the chouquettes were a huge hit. They had many gluten free and vegan options, and everyone got something they enjoyed. Thank you Chouxsf!

    An actual hidden gem, Choux is a small bakery tucked away in Fillmore. Their main item are the bite-sized cream puffs, which are utterly fantastic. Filled with fresh cream, the puffs are not overly sweet and focus on the flavors themselves, including raspberry, hazelnut, and Thai tea. Absolutely worth a trip out.

    $2.50/piece!

    We were on the best pastry hunt in SF and found this hole in a wall spot @ the nice Fillmore area. We got lucky and found immediate parking so that always helps. We tried a little bit of everything and liked most of it except for the lavender choux as it squirted all over me when I took the first bite and not sure if that was supposed to happen, they didn't warn us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The actual store is super tiny and just order via the window and the pastries were tinier than it looked on the photo we saw, just like the store itself but friendly service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We tried the Choux, Financier and I forgot the other one but all great except for the mess on one of them, not cheap for sure.

    We ordered cream puffs from Choux for Valentine's Day. A box of 12 for friends and a small box of 4 for us. Every single one was incredible. My wife's favorite was the caramel. I'm partial to the hazelnut, which had this deep, almost praline-like flavor. Our friends loved 'em too, and their kids demolished the rest before anyone could grab seconds. My research research tells me Choux female-owned and founded by a pastry chef trained in Paris. And boy, you can definitely tell. The cream puffs are light, the fillings taste fresh (not overly sweet), and the boxes have a nice design without trying too hard. If you're looking for the best cream puffs in San Francisco, a last-minute gift, or just something special for a gathering, this is it. Works for adults and kids equally well. We'll be ordering again.

    Takeout only bakery with a variety of flavors for cannelés, choux and financiers. The packaging is cute and makes for a nice sweet treat gift! The choux are a bit small for the value but delicious! I enjoyed the raspberry and lemon flavors the most

    I called at 445pm, the day before an event where our org needed a dozen pastries customized with our logo. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Looking at Choux's website, everything looked gorgeous and classy. Sophisticated and pretty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I spoke to Kat who recommended the Birthday Box - a lovely little box containing 12 delicacies. I emailed her our logo and she was able to assemble this adorable presentation of her creations with our logo sitting atop of each one. And the best part? They were delicious and our staff appreciated the extra care that went into the preparation. Thank you so much, Choux!

    Went for the first time after a recommendation from a friend! [[HIGHLIGHT]]A very cute and quaint place - fyi it's a small shop with no indoor seating as it's pretty much just an order counter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a variety of flavors and treats you can mix and match. Each pastry is $4 but you do get a small discount the more you buy. (I bought 4 items for $15) Hazelnut choux: 10/10. My personal favorite. Delicate, nutty and decadent. Lemon cannele: 9/10. Delicious and mild. Not too sweet with a nice chew! Yuzu coconut choux: 9/10. Delightfully tart and sweet! Not too coconut-y which I was relieved about Matcha cannele: 6/10. Was okay but a bit underwhelming. While they're a bit pricey for the size, I like the smaller bite-sized pastries as it's the perfect amount to get a sweet fix.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Choux is such a cute little store.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]No seating and you just order in front of the building.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's hard to find good choux in the city. They come in a lot of classic flavors. I would eat them fresh or risk having them turn soggy from the filling. I do wish they came in more unique flavors as there are so few choux places in the city. Also bigger ones because these can easily be finished in two small bites.

    Choux is a great grab-and-go spot when looking to get some pastries. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small shop, so you basically order at the doorway and take everything to go, as there's no seating area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The pastries were around $4 each when I visited, and the nice perk is that they offer you a discount the more you buy. I got four canelés for $15 instead of $16, and it was delicious. The box you get is also very cute. Service was good and very quick. Would recommend!

    Wanted something sweet and found this place on our way to the beach , we got 8 different flavors , it was delicious I love these kind of deserts. Also our service was very good, the lady at the desk were very nice and helped us with our questions. Recommend trying!!

    Box of 3 Cream Puffs and canele

    My friend and I decided to grab a sweet treat and Choux was nearby. We ordered the raspberry, honey lavender, and hazelnut choux and 1 cannele. The raspberry choux was tart and had a nice raspberry flavor. The hazelnut choux was similar to eating a ferrero rocher and wasn't too sweet but still had a nice flavor. The honey lavender had a stronger lavender taste and was floral. I think overall I preferred the raspberry and hazelnut choux than the honey lavender but all were solid options. My favorite was the cannele. It had a strong vanilla flavor and you could see the vanilla bean coating the cannele. It was sweet and the texture was spongey and slightly dense/ (which I didn't mind). The texture was a mix of a custard and a cake. I would definitely love to come back and try their matcha cannele too! The worker there was patient and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location is in a window pickup so no seating at all. However, there are parks nearby to enjoy your desserts at.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Although they don't serve variations of buttercups, A Buttercup is one of the few dessert houses…read moreoffering Taiwanese-style treats like Bingsoo, Milk Bread Toast, and other Asian fusion creations. I'm always hunting for spots like this because I have a weakness for those over-the-top, Instagram-worthy desserts that look like diabetes in a dish. Like most places in this genre, A Buttercup is small, modern, and minimalist with limited seating. If you plan to go, aim for off-hours unless you enjoy waiting in line for sugar. The decor is cute and trendy, perfect for photos if that's part of your dessert ritual. As they say, "you eat with your eyes first," and when it comes to presentation, this place definitely gets an A+. The desserts look stunning and set high expectations. Unfortunately, that's where things started to crumble. It's like going to see your favorite artist live. You've watched the videos, memorized the songs, and paid for the experience. But instead of the electric performance you imagined, you get someone lip-syncing and barely connecting with the crowd. That was this place in dessert form. We ordered the Mango Bingsoo on our first visit, and when it arrived, we were surprised by how small the portion was. The guy next to us even looked over and said, "Whatever that is, I'm getting that next time." He shouldn't have. The Bingsoo looked great but was bland, and the "snow" was more chunky ice than soft shave. The Thai Tea Roti was also not what I expected. It came with Thai tea ice cream and sauce alongside a roti that was fried to a crunch. Interesting idea, just not the best execution. The sauce and ice cream needed a stronger Thai tea flavor to balance the crispy roti, and the flavors never quite came together. Overall, A Buttercup nails the aesthetics but misses the flavor. If you're here for the photos, you'll be happy. If you're here for the taste, you'll leave with a full camera roll and an unsatisfied sweet tooth.

As a young person, I can easily brush off that kind of attitude. But it made me feel sad for my 90-year-old grandfather, who deserves to be treated with warmth and kindness. Customer service isn't just about getting the order right, it's about making people feel welcome, especially elderly customers. The food is consistently great, but I hope the customer service can improve to match the quality of what they serve.
