Fun fact: Alyzée" is the name of the owner's daughter. It boasts marble counters, bistro-style tables, and outdoor seating on Castro Street to mimic the South of France. The owner recruited pastry chefs who relocated from France specifically for this endeavor. They also have monthly flavor, for example for May 2026: "Strawberry Bliss" cake. I totally recommend: mixed berry tart, coffee eclairs. The cakes and pastries are on the higher end price, perfect to surprise someone's birthday or special occasion or even to brighten your day with high quality artisan bakeries goods.

Really lovely French style patisserie with a variety of flavors and textures of pastries and cakes!…read more One of my go to's for higher end cakes during special occasions :D Owners and chefs and staff are all very sweet and accommodating and you can tell they genuinely love their craft and sharing it with the community! They have rotating seasonal items and also accept ordering larger cakes through online orders or by calling in! Their 100% pistachio cake is amazing - not too sweet and the pistachio flavor really comes through but doesn't overpower. Very creamy texture that isn't too heavy and has a fun, crunchy outer shell. The matcha raspberry is also nice and balanced - matcha flavor complements well with the raspberry gel / jam inside and is mellowed out by the cream. Inside is very chic and great place to chat and catch up over a cup of coffee and even get some work done - water station and wifi is inside.

I've worked my way through both the permanent and seasonal menus, and I genuinely can't think of a bad drink I've had. The Einspänner on any drink is unmatched, but honestly, every drink has been so good that picking a favorite feels impossible. The pastries are just as impressive! Always fresh, scrumptious, and worth every calorie. I remember when you could walk right in without much of a wait, but influencers have definitely done their job putting special places like this on the map. My only real complaints? The weekend lines and the fact that a coffee shop opens at 8 a.m. Let me get my caffeine fix earlier! Still, this is an easy 5/5. The drinks and pastries are on another level, and the hype is completely deserved.

I had always wanted to try Alexander's Patisserie but every time I've walked in, I never saw…read moreanything that I wanted to lock in on. This changed when I found out that they started serving salt bread. I went in with high expectations, especially with the branding of this bakery. To order, you need to go on their website to designate a time for pick-up. The part that was not seamless was with the actual pick-up; they have a sign right when you walk in for pick-ups but none of the workers were paying attention to that area. After 5 minutes of waiting with zero eye contact or help from any of the workers, I went over to the cash register area and asked one of the workers who didn't seem to be occupied with anything. When I grabbed the bag from her, I immediately noticed that it wasn't warm or hot to the touch, which was a bit concerning. I got 2 of their garlic herb salt bread and was expecting them to be made-to-order, or at least warmed up, hence why there is a designated pick-up and mandatory mobile order process? I'm not sure if maybe they are supposed to be eaten cold, or if they required a heat-up, however there were no explicit instructions to do so if they should have been. In terms of the taste, it was fine, but just tasted like a cold buttery garlic bread. Nothing spectacular per se. I also ordered the white peach juice and although it was grabbed from the fridge, it leaned more on being lukewarm. It definitely tasted like it was made with real ingredients but I expected more of the white peach nectarine to peak through. Not worth it for the price imo ($6.50). Overall, the experience and service themselves would make me hesitant to come back.

Very good!…read more Service, display, taste. The price is a little high, but I'll be back!

They had a display of baked items at the window and a Chalkboard sign. I saw a ham and cheese croissant and was immediately sold. The young man worked at the window was polite and welcoming. I had time to kill but wasn't too hungry so naturally I ate something ‍ BEST HAM AND CHEESE CROISSANT I HAVE HAD IN SOMETIME! No, really. It's simple but easily messed up by most places that have them. Flaky, ham was thin and broke apart easily, the cheese and inner soft portion mixed together was superb. I sat quietly and munched! I overheard regulars saying it was unusually quiet and not the norm? Regardless it was peaceful! Shades triangles above the picnic table, the side under the tree was occupied but I was happy where I was. I'm going to have to return with my wife at some point and even when I'm in the area I'll make it a point to stop over.

The location was the farmer's market in palo alto. Everything, and i mean everything was old. We trust them so we only found out in the car the bread was at least a day old, the pastries were old. We went at 9am, there is simply no excuse. We had to do a detour through Manresa to save our brunch and had to buy everything again.

The staff were friendly, and the store is pristine and cozy. There is street parking in front and ample parking lots in short walking distance of State St. I'm more of a savory person so I thoroughly enjoyed the giant slice of Potato Leek & Truffle Gouda Quiche and coffee to go. There are a lot of sweet options too and I love the variety and ingredients they use in them. Just keep in mind that they don't warm up the food items here (and I recommend eating the quiche warm)! This is a perfect spot to grab a quick drink and bite to enjoy outside or at your next destination. I love that everything is fresh and when they run out, they run out!

Our favorite pastries are their croissants, monkey bread, and Kouign Amann. I always order a croissants and a hot latte first to enjoy them at the shop and then I will order a few more pastries to bring home. The Los Altos location doesn't have indoor seating so we would sit right outside and enjoy the hot coffee on a cold day, it's a very relax and enjoyable experience in downtown Los Altos, I highly recommend it!
