I finally was able to snag their Hotplate Wednesday box, and it made me so happy to try out their…read moregoodies! I have been to Butter & Crumble two times now: once while waiting in line for an hour and a half, and the second time with one of their limited pre-ordered boxes that I got lucky enough to claim. First off, I want to say that I love how Butter & Crumble is not only a woman-owned business, but I also appreciate how you can definitely tell through its whimsical decor in their small storefront. While there is not any seating inside, there is still a lot of personality packed into the space with their pink disco croissant, pretty Instagram-worthy tiles, and the aesthetically pleasing transparent divider between customers and their working team (for patrons to watch the art of making a flaky pastry!). I truly appreciate how their menu changes every month and that all of the bakers who work there are able to showcase a specialty item. I was very bummed that I missed the prime rib and Dungeness crab pastries, so I'm hoping they bring them back again soon! Since I got a pre-order box during my last visit, the pastries were already pre-selected, so I was not able to choose what I wanted. Regardless, I was happy with the selection. I got some of their signature pastries, including: *Morty P Croissant: Salty pistachio pesto with mortadella meat, giving an Italian sandwich type of vibe. *Pistachio Cardamom Croissant: Generously filled with pistachio cream with a slight hint of cardamom. It was sweet and tasted like a cannoli, but with flaky butter pastry. *Mocha Cruffin: An excellent blend of both chocolate and espresso. It was really balanced and worked well with the cruffin shape. Mine leaked out a bit (it was stuffed more on top) and got everywhere, but I enjoyed the flavors. *Herby Olive Twist: Savory and cheesy from the Parmesan, and I enjoyed both the olive and olive oil flavors paired with flaky sea salt. Overall, do I recommend Butter & Crumble? Yes. However, I do want to call out that I wouldn't recommend waiting an hour and a half in line on a regular basis to get it, even though this spot is delicious.

Wait Time: 10min on a weekend afternoon. I got lucky and saw it was open beginning of this year before crowds found out. Their hours are not accurate so just up to chance. Items Order: 9/10 Egg Tart $3.75 - larger than average egg tart. It comes piping hot and fresh. the shell is very buttery but holds well. custard is very hongkong style (eggy/milky vs the custardy Portuguese version). Sweetness level is about 50% so not that sweet. CASH ONLY

You can also order ahead online if you want to minimize wait time. Just make sure to bring cash since they're cash-only. Food: The flaky crust instantly brought back childhood memories. We tried the red bean and black sesame flavors, and both were excellent. The seaweed paired beautifully with the red bean, adding a subtle umami depth that balanced the sweetness perfectly. The black sesame flavor tasted rich, nutty, and authentic; true to its name without tasting overly processed or filled with unnecessary additives.

Tartine pastries are overall very delicious and fresh. I actually love the oat porridge loaf the most, and try to get it every time I'm in the neighborhood.... so moist and chewy yum. On this particular morning, I picked up the fig ricotta pastry, which was very very good. we also got a little gems salad which was pretty flavorful with a lot of crispy crunchies in it. We also really like the Tartine Manufactory that's on the other side of the neighborhood that has more sit down seating.

With a crispy undercarriage and still somehow perfectly chewy melty, it had a great balance . I also got a chocolate chip cookie which was massive for the price, chewy and not too sweet. The service was quick but the out door seating was full today, which reflects the popularity of this quaint and highly popular location. Luckily it's a quick walk to the park and even through the extra distance, the pizza was still crispy and delicious.

I've always wanted to try this place since I see a line every time I walked by. There's a lot of foot and car traffic. It's definitely a busy area so expect to park in one of the nearby residential areas or be extremely and walk/bike/bus here! Upon stepping into the tiny shop, I was enveloped in the sweet smell of chocolate chip cookies. It was tempting to put that in my bag, but I stuck with my game plan. They do self serve for all the baked goods and drinks except the pizza and focaccia. You tell the cashier what you grabbed. There's self serve complimentary water on the side too. Got a pecan swirl, one of each square focaccia flavors, and a half pizza (hot). The pizza flavor of the day was triple mushroom with sesame ginger garlic vinaigrette and mozzarella. It was 10/10 delicious!! Do note that they don't heat up the focaccia. Personally, after tasting everything, I'd say the pizza is more worth it than the focaccia "pizzas". The pecan roll was quite addicting too. You can also skip the line if you want to order online on their website and schedule a pick up time, but my gift card didn't work so I just waited in line.

I've tried a variety of items, including the butter mochi muffin and their flavored twice baked croissants, but my favorites are the banana bostock and the mushroom tart. I also appreciate that they serve drinks from Paper Son. I've been getting the Guava Pillow, which is a tonic espresso topped with guava foam, it's such a great caffeine option if you're not in the mood for something milky. The staff are all very friendly, which makes the experience even better. The location itself is a bit awkward in my opinion, as it's on a busy street, but they do offer a few parking spots right in front as well as some outdoor seating. Overall, I highly recommend this bakery over others in the neighborhood!
