It smells so wonderful and warm when you enter and it's really a feast for your eyes. Everything looks so delicious and it's hard to choose. The staff was ver patient with me. My "go to" is the most famous twice baked almond croissant. On this visit ordered the "go to" , blueberry ginger scone, ratatouille sandwich, turkey havarti sandwich, banana bread, and some Americanos to go. This is not a sit down cafe so we thoroughly enjoyed them in the parked car. :) Every bite should be savored. Extraordinary!

Bakery Nouveau no longer has anywhere to sit, so it is purely a to-go location. The barista was…read morekind enough to suggest sitting at a bench at Kaiser Permanente, across the street. I am not sure how to rate this bakery. I bought two items. The pear tart was excellent. The crust was rich, dense and sweet, and the frangipane filling was perfect, with slices of pear layered on top. The chocolate croissant, on the other hand, was beautiful but almost flavorless. Averaging on high score and one low brings me to 3 stars.

I used uber to place a pick up order for a London fog & almond croissant. I wasn't aware that there is an unspoken rule, that even though there is an ipad that alerts the staff an order has been placed with a clear expected pick up time, customers need to make staff aware a placed an order for pick up so they can start making it. Don't worry, if you don't know this unspoken rule, a rude staff member will let you know. Should've just ordered Starbucks.

I say modestly it can be shared between 2-4 people. The cake was light, with a smooth consistency. Chocolate is not too rich because I have a sneeze indicator. The higher the percentage in dark chocolate the higher the likelihood I am to sneeze. I was just on the verge and typically happens somewhere between 70% and above. Anyways I recommend coming here and trying their offerings. I was eyeing a pistachio croissant they have so I might be back again to try that. Aside from that, service wise I had no complaints. Parking can get tricky since it's just street parking.

If I asked why, they might say, "Oh, we're very sorry, but we're too busy to answer." As every business seems to do these days. But I'm busy too, and a phone call saves me an unnecessary trip when they are out of what I'm looking for. Oh well, I guess!

Everything was delicious. We had bolognese, halibut, mushroom bruschetta, calamari, french dip, and mushroom risotto. I didn't get a photo of the bruschetta. It. Was. Crazy. Good. The bread was so yummy. My oldest son got the french dip and he was hoping it was on the same type of bread and was a tiny disappointed it wasn't. Mushroom risotto had a lovely variety of mushrooms and was very light for a risotto. My kids had bolognese and loved it. They stated it was very flavorful and loved the wide noodles. My husband had the halbut and the fish was a good portion size with the sides complimented it well. We will definitely be returning.

The gentleman at the front of the house was running everything on his own and did an amazing job managing the steady flow of customers. It was so nice to see regulars coming in--he knew them by name and they clearly knew him, which created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The food was very good! I ordered a soup and a sandwich, which isn't something I usually go for, but I really enjoyed it. I would love to come back and try their dinner menu, especially if it includes more protein options. I would definitely revisit!

Great ambiance and pastries, but the coffee and service are just average…read more I got an americano ($4) and a mocha ($6) -- nothing that stands out, especially given how many excellent coffee spots Seattle has to offer. The food selection is solid: sandwiches, hearty breads, and a variety of desserts. I tried the brioche and the pistachio tart. The brioche was forgettable, but the pistachio tart was genuinely delicious. It's the first thing I'm ordering on my next visit. Seating is more generous than it looks. There's an outdoor patio and a second floor, so you can usually find a spot. Nice weather? Go for the patio. Need to focus? The corner seats upstairs are your best bet.

It was pretty good. This place is beautiful and had a very nice flow. One door exclusive for entrance leads you to all the yummy looking bread and pastries, followed by sandwiches and desserts.

I would like to try the other food offerings next time. You help yourself with water and dishing out your dishes. They have a second floor for more sitting. Will return soon to check them out again.

We ordered everything to go but were able to get a table so I would recommend keeping an eye out for availability because you never know when a table will open up. I ended up getting the za'atar grilled cheese which was so good especially pipping hot. My friend got the halloumi sandwich which was also really tasty and I would say is perfect if you're more hungry. While I don't drink coffee, I did take a sip of the tiramisu coffee and I don't know how they did it, but it really does taste like tiramisu. There was a definite mascarpone flavor that emerged from the foam that was placed on top. This is a great cafe if you're looking for a bit and some coffee or maybe even a pastry. Their pastry case looked so good, I was definitely tempted to pick some items up including their pistachio croissant and cookies.

i'm writing this review about a year after trying mintish for the first time…read more i first discovered it before its opening. a friend sent me a post on their instagram account that was just a 'coming soon' post. from the images, i couldn't determine where it was opening, the only thing i knew is that it would be opening in capitol hill. i was ecstatic to see a palestinian coffee shop not only coming to seattle, but also to the neighbourhood that i was soon moving to. i first tried mintish with a friend. it wasn't long after their opening. the staff were extremely friendly. the inside was bustling, but the inside is decorated so nicely. levantine art on the walls, references to the keys back to palestine, and fairuz playing over the speakers... the joy i felt was unmatched. i probably made a fool of myself telling them how happy and excited i was to see a levantine coffee joint in my neighbourhood! to celebrate the occasion, i got an iced levantine latte with a knafeh cheesecake. it's definitely one of the best lattes i've ever had, period. my friend and i stored the cheesecake for later, but it was still delicious! now, as long as i'm in town, i'm there usually once a week on average. i switch between the levantine and demasc lattes -- they're both too good. everything on this menu is a hit, you truly can't go wrong, including the food. i'll order that labneh avocado toast when i'm wanting a snack, or take a cheesecake to go when my sweet tooth is calling. if you're visiting seattle and capitol hill is on the list, mintish is a must-stop. it is a story of palestinian success and excellence.

It was busy but not crazy packed. They had a lot of options for pastries and drinks. I'd never had a London Fog before so I decided to get that. It was so good! I'm a big earl grey fan, so I figured I'd like it. Very sweet but not too much. The pastries all looked absolutely fabulous. It was hard to choose, but I went with the black sesame macaron.

Scheduled an online order, which…read moreis super easy to do on their website at least 3 days ahead of time and lets you skip the line! Overall, I'd say their pastries were generally good not great and were significantly sogged up by 12:30 PM when I grabbed em. Their patisserie is stronger than the pastries IMO and while I wouldn't wait in a crazy line, it's still lovely neighborhood spot and perhaps the pastries are a better texture earlier in the day. Highlights: - Miso Roasted White Chocolate Cronut: My favorite item in their current rotation. The cronut was a tad soggy, but the buttery texture inside is still satisfying and the miso white chocolate filling is lusciously smooth and perfectly balanced between savory and sweet. - Blackberry Corn Mousse Cake: Blueberry mousse is the perfect fluffy texture and the corn is very subtle. The sponge cake is light and perfectly contrasts against the bottom layer of crunchies to add a bit of variety. - Blueberry Corn Croissant: Pastry also held up quite well on this one with the outside still being quite crisp. The inner cream unlike the mousse cake is very corn forward with a bit of blueberry jam to balance it out. Skip: - Black Forest Cake: Found the cake to be a bit too firm with the cream filling to be a little bland and too firm as well. Just wanted this to be better than it was. Also, it looks totally different from the photo on their website heads up. - Tomato Basil Croissant: Just found this to be off ratio wise. The only tomato is the 3 small quarters of cherry tomato at the top and a light smear of basil cream. I can see this being very good, but current form factor isn't doing it any favors.
