It was a small shop that had a ton of options for pastries and drinks. They even had a little reserved area. Delicious! read more

If you want to go to a place that gives you bang for your buck, come here! Their pastries are GINORMOUS and DELICIOUS! I had the magnífico (which is a pastry filled with cheese + guava) which I absolutely loved. I also had brioche with blueberries which was perfect. I highly recommend coming here if you are craving a pastry or want to get some for your office, you will not be dissatisfied! The only bummer I had was that I had leftover pastries the next day but they were much better the day of! Can't wait to try more pastries on the menu! read more

I finally got to try European Delights and I was impressed! I came on a weekday with my daughter when they first opened, and we ordered a few pastries. My first impression as we walked into the store was the aroma of freshly baked bread. We wanted to order everything! We ordered 3 patties and this is what I had: -Ham, Bacon, and Cheese Croissant 5/5: This was our favorite! It was warm, fresh, and well-balanced. Every bite was the perfect bite. We came back and ordered a second one. It was that good! -Blueberry Scone 4/5: I loved that the scone was not too sweet. It had a great flavor, I only wish it were warmer. I would order it again though and take it to go to warm up at home. -Mango Muffin GF 3/5: This was our least favorite. It was very dense and a bit flavorless. It looked delicious through the glass but it wasn't what we expected. Overall the pastries here are fresh, flavorful and there are many options. This will be a go-to bakery from now on. I can't wait to stop by again and order more items. read more

I just went in here to get a pastry with my dad for Father's Day, and the service & the food were both disappointing. The woman who took our order had to clarify with us 4-5 times, we were getting 1 croissant and 2 cinnamon twists, they messed this up multiple times doing 2 and 2, then 2 and 1 of the wrong things. (They were more worried about getting cannolis to this other customer, they seemed really overwhelmed by an order of 8 cannolis, but otherwise they didn't seem super busy so not sure what the deal was) They rang us up, total was $16 something, I gave a tip, they rushed us out, we get home, no croissant. So that's $5 wasted & the cinnamon twists were honestly gross -- they were dry and stale, with very little taste. Overall a waste of money and time for what should have been a very simple exchange. read more

I stopped by European Delights and noticed a small sign in the pastry case advertising a 2-for deal. When I asked about it, the employee simply turned the sign over, so I ended up ordering something else instead. The pastries were also a bit expensive for what they were. Overall, the experience wasn't welcoming enough to make me want to return. read more

Usually go for the apple strudel which is incredible. This morning I tried their 'European Delight'. Super choice. Pastry is stuffed with three, creamy, light and semi-sweet cheeses and golden raisin filling. I went with a friend who was a baker and knows baking well. He was impressed by this pastry and a cherry filled one. The owner here is the baker and his pastries are beautiful. Worth going there. read more

I am in big trouble! I found this place next to my gym and bought a croissant after a hard workout and it was the best pistachio croissant that I've had. I am 100% certain that I will be going again, which is not good for my diet read more

Yummy pastries and other delightful delicacies. Nice to have a family owned bakery near by. The almond croissant was unbelievably good! Prices reflect the times, but I. Light of that, worth every penny. Staff are friendly and helpful. The shop was clean and smelled wonderful. read more

European delights? Not sure which European country these delights represent. Could be Albania. Recipes from a grandmother as beloved as mine was, and nearly as bad a cook. This is a bit harsh, the pastries are oversize, okay but not delicious. It's just that I was annoyed to drive far out of the way to a remote shopping center, making a pilgrimage to find a delectable example of what European pastries can be. read more

A highly regarded bakery that offers authentic European flavors, renowned for its artisanal pastries, crusty bread, and a variety of traditional delicacies. The service was friendly highly recommend read more

We have gone here for a couple of years and the pastures are always yummy. Definitely recommend!!

Such a cute mom and pop bakery! It's close to where I work, so I had to try it. Everyone there is very friendly which makes for a homey vibe! The selection of pastries is EXTENSIVE- I had a hard time picking one, but so glad I went with the hazelnut croissant. It was soft and the filling was very flavorful (not too flakey/crispy if that's what you're going for). And my iced latte was a classic, but if you like your coffee on the sweeter side don't forget to add sugar. I'll definitely be back soon and can't wait to try the spinach and feta croissant! read more

I've long wished for a quality bakery a reasonable distance from our neighborhood. With the discovery of European Delights in the Citrus Shopping Center of Walnut Creek my wish has been granted! Owned by a Romanian brother and sister, all their baked goods are made from scratch in the old European manner. The resulting items are like an All-Star team featuring the best from different European countries: croissants from France, strudel from Germany, cannolis from Sicily, etc. We've tried these so far and have never been disappointed: Almond and Guava Croissants, Cinnamon Roll, Apple Strudel. I especially love their butter croissant, so buttery and flaky it almost melts in your mouth. They have a small sitting area perfect for relaxing with fresh baked goodies and their delicious coffee. Delivery is also available via Uber Eats. This place is a hidden gem, I'm so glad we discovered it! read more

European Delights has the best apple strudel I've ever tasted. The apples are sliced paper-thin and layered throughout, creating a wonderful texture in every bite. The dough is exactly what you want from a strudel: flaky on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Ask them to warm it up for you. They have several other apple treats (apple cinnamon rolls, apple brioche) that are similarly fantastic. The pistachio croissant is another standout. It's filled with a delicious pistachio paste studded with whole pistachios for a little crunch, plus a hint of Belgian chocolate. I've never tasted anything quite like it. What really makes this place special is the atmosphere. The owners (a brother and sister duo) take time to chat with regulars, and it gives the bakery a genuine neighborhood feel that's hard to find. There's seating if you want to stay and enjoy your pastry with a coffee. This is the kind of small, family-run spot that deserves to thrive. Do yourself a favor and check them out. read more

It's a relative with decent bakery. Always was on my bucket list to go to. Finally made it and slightly disappointed with the bakery selection and coffee, coffee strength and quality. Very clean and comfortable environment. Everything looked very neat inside. The owner takes pride in his place! Nice wall arts and greenery inside of the shop. Some dishes might be delicious. However, I picked the cinnamon swirl and it turned out to be a little bit sugary. My wife's gone on the other hand was relatively tasty. The coffee was really watery and didn't taste well. Had to go next-door to correct it. Overall is a very nice place with the great, Romanian hospitality. read more

While at Contra Costa Coffee, I noticed some people with these takeout boxes of assorted pastries. I asked one of them where they got them, and they told me European Delights, which was just a few doors down from CoCo Coffee. I went in, looking for something savory, and after they listed off their options, I opted for the ham, cheese, and sundried tomato brioche. The pastry was good, but even after being toasted, the filling was still cold. Inside, they had music playing, but it wasn't loud enough to overwhelm a conversation, like ordering your food, but it's definitely not a place you could buy a couple of pastries and then talk with friends or family. The music was interesting though, and definitely nothing I'd ever heard before, so I used Shazam to see what the songs were. read more

Solid bakery serving european style pastries and coffee. It's small and unassuming, next to Bevmo in the old Raleys Shopping Center. There's a couple of tables inside and a couple outside. So, wasn't much seating on the rainy day that i went. The baked goods ranged from A+ to B+ We split four. The Blueberry cheese danish and the blueberry muffin with favored as they were still warm. Almond croissant was huge and a B Big enough to share. Cinnamon roll was not as fresh and it's not a european thing so the passion not quite there. read more

It was a true delight to find this bakery in Walnut Creek. I love pastries and it is hard to have good ones that are European flavors. Most places here are either French or Asian and it is refreshing to have a different style bakery here that is more Eastern European. I really love the apple strudel and the croissants. They are light, buttery and full of fillings! The bakers are also very friendly and nice. Would definitely come back! read more

Lovely coffee pastry place! Friendly service and great music! Italy's favorite coffee - Lavazza! I had the pistachio pastry(not too sweet for my taste, just right) and cappuccino(smooth and pleasant). Nice little place to have a bite, coffee and read a book. Could have stayed for the whole day just listening to the music(Andrea Bocelli) too! :-) If music be the food of love, play on! - Shakespeare read more

I read about this bakery in various FB pages and in the newspaper, and decided to check it out. I stopped by on the way home from the local farmers market. There were a lot of choices in the display and on the racks behind the counter. I brought home the Nutella pastry and my husbands favorite, an almond croissant. Both were delicious. My husband said his was smaller than he usually gets from another place, but the flavor was even better. We will be back to try more of the goodies. I'm glad to have read about this place, as the shopping center is not a busy one, with lots of vacancies. I hope that changes soon. read more

Spectacular pastries and treats! I have been coming here for about three years and have tried just about everything they make. I don't throw out "this is the best I have ever had" line too often, but this place is a hole in the wall spot that makes some of the best baked goods I have ever had. I had a lemon tart square today that left me without words. I'll just say it's as good as it gets. read more

I decided to drop by European Specialty Bakery after a long walk on the Heather Farms trail. I decided to get a variety of pastries to try. I chose a berry and cheese pastry, carrot cupcake, blueberry cupcake, a mango and pistachio pastry and an apple strudel. The mixed Berry and cheese filling was very good and the pastry was good, carrot cupcake was soft with good flavor and I tasted either oil or butter, the blueberry cupcake had lots of berries and the cake was good, my wife thought the mango and pistachio was good but not as good as the mixed Berry and cheese pastry and lastly, the apple in the strudel had a nice little crunch, nuts and good flavor. I will stop by again and try some of the other pastries. They have a wide assortment to choose from. Staff is nice and the Owner/Pastry Chef was willing to answer questions. read more

https://youtu.be/z72JvosoUao I have been wanting to try the European delights Bakery for a while. I had heard good things about it. I was super stocked when I walked in and was greeted with a happy "Welcome"! They have an extensive range of baked items. I was really impressed. All the pastries were so pretty! The issue was that the coffee was so weak and plain awful! It should have been great as it is Lavazza but no it was terrible. The pastries were ok. We got the vanilla custard croissant. The custard was really yummy but the pastry was very heavy. We got the chocolate cheesecake muffin. It was good. We got the cheese roll and it was awful. There was like a lump of cheese in it that wasn't good. My dog liked it but we did not. Overall I would give it a C grade. Check out my YouTube video about the experience. I like to support local owned businesses so please give it a try. The staff was very sweet and kind. Maybe the pastries were having a bad day and for sure the coffee maker must have been on the fritz. I asked the two people if they had ever had complaints about the coffee and both said, "I don't drink coffee". Well, whether or not you drink it has nothing to do with whether people have complained about the coffee! Oh well. Let me know your experience and watch my YouTube video! read more

Amazing amazing amazing!!! Not sure why it took me forever to try this place. Their pastries are all delicious looking and I love that they have both savory and sweet items. On the savory side we tried the spinach and feta and the ham and sun dried tomatoes and both were amazing! Make sure to get it warmed up. On the sweet side we got the magnifico which is guava and cream cheese. As a Porto's lover, I will say their danish rivals Porto's. It's as good if not better. Can't wait to come back and try more! Friendly service, kind older European grandmas - you know it's made with love and old school recipes! read more

Pastries and cakes and coffee, oh my!!!! Walnut Creek's best kept secret! I love a good cheesecake, and they just blew my mind and tastebuds with this delicious slice of heaven. It has that slightly sweet tangy icing that takes it over the edge. The lovely young ladies at the counter were courteous and full of smiles. I asked for a pastry recommendation for my hubby since it was his birthday, and they suggested the tiramus. They were right on with that one! The store is clean and inviting. They have some unique pairings that are available sometimes, such as Mango Nutella. It's definitely the place to stop in for a snack, morning pastries, or special occasion. They have a variety of coffee drinks as well! Can't wait to try more goodies! read more
