Deluxe Croissandwich - Ham, Cheddar cheese, fried egg, sauté mushrooms and fresh spinach $8.79 w Medium Cappucino $4.65
Kelly C.

Overall 3.75 stars: A small cafe situated in downtown Burlingame. A 10 minute walk to most hotels located on Broadway. Limited pastries but have a decent selection of breakfast sandwich and coffee options. Limited seating inside and outside , about 4 tables per location. It is more a pick up and go cafe. However I sat down to have my breakfast on an early Sunday morning. 3.5 Service - staff were friendly. Might be family own and operated. Because each item is made fresh, took about 12 minutes for my sandwhich and coffee. 3.75 Stars - I ordered a Deluxe Hot croissant sandwich. It had a fried egg, cheddar cheese, spinach, mushrooms and ham. The sandwich was good and hot. Evened though the croissant was flatten to encased the ingredients, it was a perfect way to hold the sandwich. I added hot sauce to enhance the flavor. The sautéed mushrooms and fresh spinach gave the other items a more balanced flavor. You know "fried egg meets fresh spinach" means healthy w a side of naughtiness. 3.5 Stars - Coffee - a medium Cappuccino. Coffee was good but I prefer my coffee stronger flavor. I forgot to order a shot of Espresso. I recommend this cafe for a light breakfast meal.

Florentine croissandwich.  I am not sure the black stuff on the egg. Since the egg was cooked in a flat griddle like a flat iron.

My first time here . I ordered to go regular croissant, almond croissants. The price is fair but it is not what I expected. Croissants here are delivered daily according to the owner from a different bakery. There is one female prepping the order and the owner. So only two employees in a small space. Their regular croissants were not shiny, not crispy and not flaky but soft. I would pay more for the quality and for real Croissants. I am still trying to assess the black stuff on my egg that I did not eat and removed from the Croissanwich. I was not a happy camper eating their Croissant. I will not go back.

Street parking. Good to go on Sunday so as not to worry about meter. Le special breakfast with egg mushroom, spinach, cheese, tomato was excellent. Side toast with whipped butter & jam also added along with house coffee or orange juice. Other breakfast items ordered by our group looked good but I did not taste them. Order your food, pay, and server brings to your table. Small cafe so not much ambiance. Small eatery and fairly fast service. 4 of 5 stars.

Avocado turkey pesto with pepper jack cheese in a croissant
Izzy T.

Absolutely delicious little turkey pesto sandwich in a croissant! They gave lots of avocado (super fresh) and melted some ooey gooey pepper jack cheese in it with a few slices of tomato! There isn't much searing inside (4-5 tables) but there also a few outside the restaurant! Cute little breakfast spot in downtown Burlingame so there's plenty to walk around and see after! Would definitely come again to try their other sandwiches!

Turkey avocado melted (#12)
Raquel D.

Very cozy mom & pop breakfast & sandwich place! I ordered their turkey avocado melted sandwich and it was delicious! I rarely get sandwiches because I don't typically like them, but this was soo good. Everything was well portioned and prepared. The garlic pesto is such a nice touch! Service was quick, I think I got everything within 5 minutes. They're also laptop friendly on the weekends which is nice. I was originally going to eat/station at pluckys down the street but saw how they don't allow laptops on weekends. So glad it turned out this way! Also the large latte is the size of a bowl! Super happy!

Ground up nuts in cream cheese
Michael S.

Warning: They add nuts to basic items without telling you! I had been ordering here for a while with good results - the food quality was good on most items. This time they put some kind of ground up nuts in a few plain bagels with cream cheese. Opening the bagels it is clearly easy to see. It caused a severe allergic reaction. When I called them they denied it, denied even the possibility that anything with nuts could have gotten in there, while it was sitting there right in front of me.

Nice little mom and pop bakery. The owner is nice, and friendly. Cozy shop inside. Seems like fresh baked good each day. I got an almond filled croissant to heat up. They put it in a panini press to heat up. I unfortunately, it didn't heat up the croissant but instead it pressed it down. Losing that fluffy crispy-ness of a croissant. The taste though is pretty good. Not too sweet. House coffee is not bad either. Wish the would get a toaster to warm up the baked goods, instead of smooshing it in a panini press. There are tables to sit outside which is nice.

Sausage egg and cheese croissant

Have been coming to this place a 2 or 3 times a month for 3 years now, really awesome affordable mom and pop spot. The sausage egg and cheese croissant is my favorite. Steve the owner is always super friendly, and thice outside seating on broadway.

Lox Sandwich

We've been coming to Le Croissant Cafe for over a decade! It's a perfect spot to enjoy a small yummy meal and enjoy Burlingame. The BEST BLT in the Bay, hands down. PRO TIP: Add an egg. The egg salad is HEAVENLY. OJ is perfection. Their chicken soup is hearty and has warmed a many cold afternoons. The owners are a lovely family whom we love supporting. Definitely our go-to spot in Burlingame!

Almond croissant
Dharma M.

Love this coffee shop. It is family owned. Seems many are regular. The owner is nice. It is a small shop which serves coffee, pastries and regular american breakfast like egg and sandwich. It has indoor and outdoor seating. We ordered almond croissants and ice and hot latte. Price is reasonable and it is cheaper than other coffee shops. The croissant is yummy and fluffy. The latte is good and light. Will visit again and try the sandwiches. It is a good place for breakfast and brunch.

This was a fresh breakfast. It had eggs with mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach and cheese with wheat toast. It all was very fresh but there seemed something missing. It was just very plain in flavor. I wish it had more seasoning or something to make it more unique. I added salt and pepper and that helped it somewhat. I still enjoyed it. Staff were nice and it's a nice chill café. I don't know if I'd go back but I might try their sandwiches.

Ceré Tea - Black Sesame Matcha Einspanner (oatmilk, 50% sweetness)

I ordered the Osmanthus Matcha Latte (cold) with no modifications. However modifications included dairy or non dairy options, toppings, ice level, extra matcha and sweetness level with 50% as the minimum. The matcha was lightly sweeten and smooth. The osmanthus bits in the bottom was delightful. The osmanthus was lightly sweetened, slightly citrusy and floral. The drink was well balanced between the two flavors. Definitely would recommend a visit.

TL;DR: expensive drink but worth every penny…read more I popped by on a random weekday afternoon after a client meeting and was looking for a sweet treat. There was no line at all, so my drink came out really quickly. Service was efficient, and basically non existent since you order on your phone, and pick it up from the counter. They have some seats indoors and a few benches outside, it's pretty spare and basic inside which is all you really need in a cafe. I saw a lot of people getting takeout, and some small groups around tables chatting. I was debating between the matcha and houjicha, then got intrigued by the black sesame, and finally after much internal debate, decided that black sesame + houjicha would work best together and wanted the einspanner. They honestly have so many intriguing options like Earl grey matcha einspanner??? Banana pudding?? I have to come back. My only complaint is the price but I guess everything is expensive these days. $8/9 for one of these drinks hurt my heart though. On the flavors: while I wish there was more black sesame (I always do), this was one of the most satisfyingly black sesame items I've had from a cafe. It went really well with the toasty roasty notes from the houjicha and I think they added enough of both amidst the milk to make it a very satisfying drink. This can be rare because a lot of places drown out all the flavors with too much milk. The best part though, was the einspanner - the sweetened whipped cream on top really brought the whole drink together and was so delicious. It made it just that little bit more decadent. I got it at minimal sweetness and at first though it wasn't enough, but I was glad I did as I worked my way through the cup, it was perfect.

First time at Maison Alyzée was on the evening of Thursday, October 26, 2023. Ray, Pete and I…read morewalked in shortly before 9 PM for some caffeine after our dinner event at Rise Pizzeria, just down the street. Maison Alyzée is a French fine pastry bakery café located on downtown Burlingame's main strip. Dedicated to providing customers with a Parisian escape through handcrafted elegant pastries and artisanal breads, the bake shoppe doubles as pâtisserie and boulangerie, priding itself on meticulous attention to detail. Upon entry, we were welcomed by a brightly lit and very clean venue. Ray and I were immediately drawn to the beautiful marble-topped white counter that encased a gorgeous variety of exquisite treats. The commitment to the elegance of French culture and modern creativity were evident in every luxurious pastry and cake on display. Maison Alyzée is an order-at-the-counter establishment, so we made our purchase with a friendly staff member at the register. Unfortunately, we were told that espresso drinks were no longer available that night since the staff had already begun cleaning the machines. Ok....I never understand businesses that start shutting down things before closing time. This just shows customers that team convenience of closing shop quickly takes precedence over customer experience, essentially omitting availability of items from the menu while they are still open. For this reason, I am docking a star. Luckily, they still had some cold brew available, so I ordered a Lavender Cold Brew with oat milk. Heads-up: Plant-based milks like almond and oat milk incur a $0.75 surcharge. I wish that the lavender was more like a simple syrup, so that the flavour was sweeter and less sharp. Maison Alyzée also offers a selection of breakfast, lunch, and brunch options. I definitely need to return to try one or two or a few of their ostentatious delights.

My friend and I stopped by to catch up and chose this place because it stays open late and has a…read morerelaxed atmosphere. I ordered a tea, and my friend chose something from the fridge. Thankfully, we didn't order any food or desserts, or coffee. While we were there, I witnessed something that was extremely concerning. A staff member came out of the kitchen wearing disposable black black gloves and walked into the restroom. Several minutes later, he came out still wearing the same gloves and immediately went to the dessert display case. He then rearranged individual desserts inside the display touching everything with the same gloves, then he grabbed a green towel from the espresso station to wipe down the glass, and even used that same towel to wipe the floor and wall around the case. Afterward, he folded the towel and placed it back on the espresso machine's frother area. Throughout all of this, he never changed his gloves after leaving the restroom. Basic food safety and hygiene practices are important for a reason, and it was unsettling to see such a lack of care. My friend and I were very relieved that we hadn't ordered any desserts or coffee. Overall, this was disappointing and left us with serious concerns about the establishment's hygiene standards.
