There is decent metered street parking. As soon as you walk in the front entrance you are shown all the delicious fresh baked pastries and bread that they offer. It's a bit overwhelming since everything looks great. Staff was friendly and patient; two qualities that are much appreciated when it's difficult deciding what to get. I ordered the breakfast burrito (no bacon) and a Swedish Cardamom Bun. The burrito was great; the egg ratio was amazing- (more egg than potato) real potato's were cooked perfectly and house made salsa complimented the burrito very well. Swedish bun: not too sweet, you can taste the dough is fresh baked and the Cardamom flavor was present yet not overpowering. Will have to come back and try more pastries. read more

Came here and had the lemongrass chicken sandwich. The sandwich was good with a nice bread and flavorful chicken. I wouldn't say it was authentic Vietnamese tasting but definitely hit the spot. Kinda surprised at $16 for the sandwich but I guess that's LA baby. There was a cute sitting area in the back, otherwise definitely had to sit outside in the front. read more

My wife and I definitely had a mixed experience here. There was a line going out the door, so I assumed it must be a really good bakery. We ordered the lemongrass chicken sandwich (with cucumber, jalapeno, carrots, cilantro on a baguette) and a Swedish vanilla bun. The chicken sandwich was very ho-hum in taste. The chicken was dry. I could barely taste the lemongrass flavor and the baguette was tough. Not the way a fresh baguette should be. The Swedish vanilla bun was delicious --- soft, fluffy, rich flavor. The service was very mixed. The woman who took our order was friendly and upbeat. We sat in the back and our chicken sandwich was pretty much dropped on our table by the server. He seemed to be doing that with all the tables there. The place had a nice seating area in the back. The front looked nice too, but seemed to have too much sun (for my taste). I might return for a pastry. read more

Clark Street is the trick up my sleeve when I want to impress friends with hosted brunch. The pastries and danishes are incomparable. Don't sleep on the Swedish cardamom or vanilla buns. The peach custard danish is also outstanding. Service is always on point, as the staff are consistently friendly and approachable. This spot is on Larchmont, so grab a seat out front and let the ambiance of the locals and travelers entertain you as they pass on by. read more

Pastries are good. I've had the cardamom bun & the cinnamon bun. All the other pastries look good too but I have yet to try. I also ordered a latte here. It was lacking a strong espresso taste that hits you on your first sip. I would come here for the baked goods but not the coffee. read more

Stopped by because I was attending a pop up and I love to support small businesses! When I entered I was welcome and greeted by staff as well as the fresh smell of baked goods. The front counter was aesthetically pleasing as it had a full counter stacked with beautiful breads, muffins and more! They don't have seating or much space inside so be sure to quickly order and leave to make space for others to order. Cool part is they will come out and announce your name if you're using their seating outside to wait for your order. Parking can be a bit limited depending on the time you show up, but they do have 2 hour metered parking! They're always ticketing so be sure to pay! I ordered the ham and cheese croissant with the hibiscus tea and added orange cardamom syrup. I was saddened when they told me that they don't have a warmer so the ham and cheese couldn't be warmed. So unfortunately I had to eat it cold. I wish they would have informed me before I already paid for it. That would have been great information to have and surprising given we stopped by at 8 and they open at 7:30. (Should have been at least Luke warm by then) The hibiscus tea stole the show as it was delicious and refreshing and it was a great idea to add orange cardamom syrup to give it a little razzle dazzle. It's the prefect drink to elect when you don't want coffee. I'll definitely return and sample other item when I'm in Larchmont again. read more

Great little cafe in the middle of Larchmont. They had a dog friendly outdoor party area which was nice. I ordered a tuna sandwich and it was absolutely delicious. I decided to take a few sweets home and the chocolate croissant was to die for. The service was very friendly and the food came out quickly. My only complaint would be that it was a bit pricey, but I guess this has become the norm. The sandwich didn't come with any sides, a little something would've been nice read more

My first time here and I loooooved it. They got our business because the wait at Max & Helen's was about 3 hours...I suspect that was the case for a lot of people. The latte I got was delicious. We had a matcha chocolate chip pastry which was so good. I got the breakfast sandwich and it was INCREDIBLE. Crisp toasty bread and a homemade sauce I loved. My boyfriend got the avocado toast and it was also delicious. read more

I heard that this place is delicious. Our plan was going to the other place but we passed this place and decided gave try. But overall disappointed. Maybe we expected so much but honestly I eaten better food anywhere else. The coffee was too strong and tasted burnt. These days my coffee style was change that's why I didn't enjoy iced americano. Bagel was ok Breakfast burritos was ok. I wanted try sandwiches but they recommended me breakfast burritos. I will try sandwiches next time. Service was ok too. Very small inside but the decorated bread looks delicious. read more

A bit overdue and I've finally found a croissant that I liked from here but after seeing the other reviews, I also wanted to share that the service here is not it. Both times my fiancé and I've been here, the service has been stand off'ish. And I'd hate to play the race card but it was blatantly obvious on our most recent visit where this girl treated the patron before us completely differently. With him, she was so bubbly and excited to make recommendations. With us, she was so short and made us feel like we were disturbing her. I noticed the attitude change immediately and had asked my fiancé if he had caught that too and he also felt the same. Hopefully it was just an off day (for both visits) but glad to see I'm not being delulu about the service. read more

My three young kids and I stop by Clark Street once a week before school for pastries and a coffee for me. It's the highlight of their week, and the service is always so patient as each of my kids place their order. The front patio is where many memories have been made! Thank you to all the staff for making this ritual so special each week! read more

Seems like maybe they had the b-team making food today. I ordered the turkey goddaughter, and it was so poorly made. I mean, you can't really mess up a turkey sandwich, but there were essentially no toppings. Pretty disappointing. read more

Clark Street Bakery in Larchmont is always worth the stop. Yes, the line can get long sometimes, but it moves fairly quickly and honestly, it's worth the wait. You truly can't go wrong whether you're in the mood for something sweet or savory. The real standout for me is the croissants. Flaky, buttery, perfectly baked absolutely worth trying (or two). They're the kind of pastry you keep thinking about after you leave. It's one of those places I always look forward to coming back to :,) A neighborhood staple for a reason. read more

Clark Street - Great Iced Latte, Even Better Hospitality Stopped by Clark Street in Larchmont for an iced latte and left even more impressed than expected. The latte was fantastic--smooth, perfectly balanced, and just the right amount of creamy. The whole café has such a warm, inviting feel, and being in the heart of Larchmont makes it an ideal spot to grab a drink before wandering through all the great shops and restaurants nearby. The best part? As they were closing up, they had extra pastries and kindly gave them out for free. And let me tell you--it was amazing. Buttery, perfectly flaky, just the right amount of sweetness, and topped with fresh blackberries that made it even better. Such a thoughtful touch that really shows what kind of place this is. Great drinks, great atmosphere, and genuinely kind people. Highly recommend! read more

Yummy! I popped in before brunch to try several items: a ham and cheese croissant, which was excellent; a soft and chewy peanut butter cookie soft that was not too nutty; their sugar topped vanilla (cardamom?) bun was very sweet and not my favorite. I did love their dark chocolate chip cookie and their savory cheddar chive scone. Those are musts. I would definitely go back to grab a coffee and try something new! read more

I love those menus that are simple and well executed and that's what you get at Clark Street. A great selection of food, not overwhelming, and absolutely delicious. I ordered their breakfast sandwich with egg, bacon, tomato etc. ( i honesly forget because I wae starving) and it was so well done, flavorful with fresh ingredients. No complaints, can't wait to go back and try more items. Good coffee/beverage selection as well. I ordered an oatmilk chai and absolutely destroyed it before I could get a picture. Would've ordered another but the line was too long which should tell you a lot. Seating indoor and outdoor, excellent service from the staff and great vibes all around. Can't wait to go back. read more

I frequent this Clark Street location, and the reason would not surprise you: they make some excellent baked goods. Whether it's their cardamom buns or their seasonal pastries (e.g. hot cross buns during Lent), I can reliably find a great pastry to eat in house or take home for later. I also enjoy their espresso-based drinks; I often get a cortado and find the balance of milk foam to espresso to be top-notch. While I find their back seating area to be dreary, they do offer lots of outdoor seating including long benches and small tables. There can often be a long line during peak hours, but I find that the employees move efficiently to take orders. read more

Beautiful display of pastries in a cute Larchmont location. Expect a wait outside the door, and some popular pastries may sell out in the morning. The cardamom and cinnamon buns are delightful- little doughy for my liking. I couldn't resist the peanut butter cookie which was dense , moist and delicious. read more

Overall we enjoyed our food and want to try some of their pastries the next time we go. read more

I stopped by Clark Street Bakery and treated myself to a little pastry box--and everything was absolutely delightful! I got two cheddar and chive scones (my favorite--they're always so flavorful and perfectly savory), a matcha chocolate croissant with a lovely balance of earthiness and sweetness, and a surprise pastry picked by the cashier: a blueberry danish. I'd never tried it before, but it was such a great choice--fruity, flaky, and not overly sweet. Thank you for making my day with such great treats and kind service. I'll definitely be back again soon! read more

Clark Street is a cute Scandinavian coffee shop. I stopped by a couple times to try their pastries. It's a little pricey, and some of their pastries were hit or miss. But everything overall was solid. Also the lines can get quite long on the weekends. Apple honey bread: just ok. A little dry. Banana bread: meh. Levain down the street has a much better slice. Cardamom bun: awesome. Soft and fresh. Pumpkin cookie: awesome. Pumpkin spice latte: also awesome. Would come back to try their lunch menu. Street/neighborhood parking is pretty easy in this area too. read more

Went to this location after going to the location near UCLA. Absolutely loved my experience at that location and the food was amazing. Noticed that there was another location in my area so decided to check it out. The cafe is small but cute and although it was close to closing time, they had a few pastries left. Service at this location was trash imo. I felt very unwelcome and although it was about 10 minutes to close, I felt that sometimes those last few interactions of the day can be the ones that leave the greatest impact on customers who may or may not return. I'll stick to my 40 minutes drive to the ucla location before giving this location my business and time. read more

Had an hour to kill this morning and was looking for a dog-friendly place to get a coffee and maybe something to eat. Saw the Clark Street Bakery, and it looked good from the outside so thought "why not?" Purchased a breakfast burrito and a latte. Price was "average". The latte was well-made. The breakfast burrito was filling, but perhaps lacking some other element inside. It definitely needed the hot sauce that accompanied it to jazz it up a bit. It was good, but I might try something else if I return to Clark Street in the future. Also purchased a loaf of sourdough to take home - bread was crisp on the outside and soft inside, and delicious when toasted with butter and jam. Recomended. read more

Hands down the best Swedish vanilla bun I've ever had in my life, maybe it's because it's the only one I've had in my life. I fell in love with it the first time I tried it. It has a hint of cardamom in it, softly baked to perfection with a soft texture. read more

Välkommen till Sverige! Back when I was in college, I studied abroad in Copenhagen for a summer, where I also enjoyed traveling around Scandinavia on the weekends. One of my fondest memories was taking the ferry to Ven where I danced to polka music at the farmer's market and ate the best Swedish pastries by the beach. Clark Street Bakery brought me back to that wonderful summer. Many of the popular bread items are Scandinavian inspired. I highly recommend the Swedish Cardamon Bun and Tebirkes if you want authentic flavors. Their coffee and tea offerings are great, too! My iced matcha latte was superb. (Although $1.25 for non dairy is a bit steep.) The sandwiches are good, but I wish I could sub the sliced bread for rolls or baguettes. I also wish they'd served more Scandinavian-inspired sandwiches like Smoked Salmon. Service is excellent. Staff is always friendly and try to get through the long lines as quickly as possible. Outdoor and indoor seating in available. Metered parking is out front. read more

With 4 locations in LA, I have been to Clark Street many times in different areas, but this my was first time at their Larchmont location. Parking in Larchmont Village can be difficult on the weekends, but there are pay lots available as well. Luckily we found a metered space on the street a few feet from the entrance this time. Clark Street is famous for their bakery options and we grabbed many of them today. My favorite is their croissant, but each time I have tried has been delicious. They also have great tea, coffee, and cold brew options so for those two reasons it's very popular around breakfast time. Today we also ordered the California Club (my favorite sandwich option and truly delicious) and the Breakfast Sandwich, which is probably my second favorite due to the runny egg on top of the toasted bread. The Avocado Toast is worth trying as well and very good. Overall a really casual and consistent bakery, breakfast, and lunch spot. The line goes quickly usually and the only downside is it's on the pricey side, but still I have never had a bad meal at Clark Street. read more

Simple. Flavorful. Fantastic. Not to mention the beautiful barista in the red dress who is ever so warm and helpful. There, I checked all three boxes in one sentence. Realistically, this can be a place you stroll to for a nice early Saturday or Sunday breakfast with Coffee. It can be a place where you sit outside on the sidewalk café, taking in all of the people watching it can be a place you can go to for teatime . All of the baked goods were fluffy, moist, and had a smattering of flavors offered. The coffee/espresso drinks seem top-tier. I wouldn't say they would compete with la mil. but if you're into the baked goods scene, check this place out. read more

In 2018-2019, I found lots of bakeries in London that were focusing on Swedish style pastries -- knotted dough concoctions with various flavoring alternatives. A few years later the trend crossed the pond, then the Mississippi, then the Rockies, and now we have Clark Street. Clark Street makes decent bread; the baguettes and focaccia are fine. But their pastries are consistently mediocre. The kouign-amann is the worst I've ever had (for a stellar exemplar, try Michelina in Farmer's Market at 3rd and Fairfax). The sandwiches are mostly fair. The best of the 6 or 7 I've tried is the lemongrass chicken sandwich, which is sort of like their version of a Vietnamese banh mi sandwich. The major problem with Clark Street Larchmont is the dismal, resentful, incompetent service. If I order sandwiches online and I am instructed to pick up by, say, 1:30, invariably the sandwiches are not ready until around 1:45 - 1:55. Worse still, they usually finish part of the order 15 - 20 minutes before the other part of the order, which means that the first part is no longer fresh -- and if it's a toasted or grilled bread sandwich, that means the texture has deteriorated. There is simply no indication that this place cares about their quality. Needless to say, Larchmont is a good location for any business. They could serve toenail clippings on stale tortillas and people would line up for it. I imagine as long as the store keeps making a profit, the owners of Clark Street will have no interest in improving this dismal place. read more

My family went to go grab us some bread, two burritos, and a sandwich. I was eating my burrito when I suddenly felt something hard and sharp. I found a piece of PLASTIC in my food. I thankfully spit it out to see what it was and to my horror it was a significant piece of plastic. I post this review for others to be careful and maybe be mindful of the food they order from this place. UPDATE: called to let them know and ask them to be careful for others food. They were kind and apologetic and offered a refund. It for sure doesn't make it okay but I appreciate that they were able to respond kindly. read more

We live near Larchmont and Clark Street has been an excellent addition to the neighborhood. We've been walking over with the kids for brunch most weekends, the baby in his stroller, the three-year-old on his balance bike. It's a lovely, easy routine (though my feelings would be different if driving and parking were part of the equation--if you're not familiar with Larchmont parking, be prepared before you show up looking to grab a quick pastry). Clark Street is popular, but it's less slammed than when it first opened, and the line to order moves relatively fast. The front of the bakery is inviting but small, with just enough room for the line to move through along the pastry display. Service is friendly and efficient, and if you're just buying pastries, you can be out the door in a few minutes. There's also a robust cafe menu with sandwiches and salads and several all-day breakfast items, which take longer to prepare. We like to order at the register and take our number to the surprisingly calm back patio. It's a plain but pleasant space, where we've never had to wait for a table or worry that our kids are bothering the other customers, who usually have their own kids. My husband and older boy always get pastries, and they love the croissants (our son actually calls Clark Street "the croissant restaurant"). They get the plain and chocolate croissants, though when those sell out, as they sometimes do, they've also gotten almond and once, the Swedish cardamom bun, which the three-year-old found quite fascinating. Dad gets coffee to go with his breakfast, while son gets some kind of fancy canned apple juice. The baby and I like some meat with our meals and have sampled a chunk of the breakfast and lunch menu. On the breakfast side, the classic lox bagel is fantastic, with smoked salmon, tomato, red onion, capers, dill, and cream cheese. I don't know where Clark Street gets their bagels, but they're good, pillowy fresh with a nice chew. I like the everything bagel, which goes well with the lovely lox. For lunch, I've enjoyed the sandwiches, especially the turkey pesto, which comes with roasted turkey, aged provolone, arugula, giardiniera, housemade pesto, olive oil, and vinegar on crusty ciabatta. The chicken salad sandwich is classic and tasty, with lettuce, tomato, and mayo on sourdough. The tuna salad sandwich is also solid, with line-caught albacore, iceberg, pickles, jalapeños, and mustard on toasted challah, though I wouldn't mind more jalapeño. I'm very fond of Clark Street and am happy to have it in our weekend rotation. It's a relaxing spot with great food and a kid-friendly set-up, a prime default destination for low-effort family outings. read more

No one quite does buns like Clark Street does. I primarily go here for their pastries and breakfast sandwich. The lunch options are pretty mid in my opinion. I've had the burger, the chinese chicken salad and the jambon beurre and none of them have really done it for me. The coffee is ok, nothing super special. Out of all the places to get pastries at on the block, this one is definitely my favorite though! read more
