A local we met on the ferry to Alcatraz told us about Tartine, so after lunch we headed this way…read more It was late afternoon so they were sold out of some things, namely the almond croissant, but we made due. The lemon tart was amazing. If their other pies are half as good as this tart...holy cow. We wished we had come in the morning, but it was still worth the Uber trip to the area to try this place out.

The first time I came here, I didn't love the breakfast sandwich on a potato bun. I came back…read morerecently and ordered a tartine, and it was great! Of course, the toasted bread is delicious. They were generous on the avocado and I liked the seasoned nuts for a little extra texture and salty flavor. I added bacon, which was nice and thick, and a fried egg that was cooked perfectly. Despite coming on a mid-Sunday morning with a line out the door, were seated and had food in front of us probably within 30 minutes. They've definitely got their process down! I wasn't sold the first time, but this last visit changed my mind!

Stopped by this place for a little snack to bring to Alamo Square park.

Overall cute little shop for a fun little sweet treat!

Choux is such a fun French word! It's pronounced "shoe", yet it means cabbage d/t its ruffly edges…read more In reality though, it's neither a cabbage or a shoe, but a French pastry filled w/cream. I've had this microbakery on my list for a while, so when I was walking on Fillmore Street I decided to stop by. Thai Tea Choux (seasonal): $4.25 +Adorable! It was topped w/an edible chocolate disc with a kawaii glass of Thai tea. +Thai tea cream was full of flavor & not too sweet. -Thai tea cream was gritty & not smooth. -Unfortunately, the choux shell was soggy and not crispy. Side notes: 1.) Discounts available for bulk purchases 2.) No seating available. Walk up to the register, order, and take your order to go. 3.) Walking distance from MUNI 22 bus stop Verdict: Cute bites with unique flavors, but I was disappointed w/the choux. If I was in the area, I'd try a canelé since they had some interesting flavors.

A charming dessert shop. The exterior and interior are modern with charming flourishes throughout…read more I found their frozen confections to be mediocre, but their signature creations were great. Service was kind. Don't Stay for Breakfast: Disappointed by this one, was 1-dimensional and no better than any run-of-the-mill ice cream bar. It lacked the maple flavor I was looking for. The only highlight was the crunch from the waffle flakes. Pavlova: A significant step-up from the other dessert. Visually, the pavlova wrapped around the presentation of fruit is quite beautiful. The pavlova was light, airy, and had a nice sweetness. The fruit filling was decadent, and added variety to each bite.

They were incredibly patient, answering all my countless questions with grace and good humor. Seriously, they deserve a medal for dealing with my pre-birthday stress while juggling logistics with the venue. They were even able to accommodate Boba macarons last minute! SERIOUSLY - PERFECTION! You can TELL they put their heart and soul into every single one. Oh, and did I mention they DELIVER WITHIN SF?! Game changer. Collette Bakery is more than just a bakery; it's an experience.

The staff were friendly and definitely help maintain the good vibes of the place. The kouign amann was a delight, I had the seasonal flavor, which I believe to be a strawberry and guava filling. The pastry itself had both the softness and sweet flakiness you'd expect from it. A genuine joy to taste. Although I enjoyed the seasonal filling as well (a great blend of fruity tartness that balanced the sweet pastry), I will order the filling-less flavor because it was too much for me. The agua fresca comes in rotating flavors, I got the guava lemonade and the "lemonade" should be written in bold because of the drink's tart punch. Overall great, visually appealing, and an enjoyable experience.

My order: Rebel Within: $9.50 +Soft cooked egg was perfectly cooked & oozed liquid gold. +Outside was crispy & flaky +Pickled veggies added acidity, crunch, and moisture -Inside was dry -IMO the side of salt wasn't needed since it was salty enough Strawberry Passion Kouign Amann (seasonal): $6.00 +Pastry was crispy and flaky +Not too sweet +The mini macaron on top was adorable & delicious! -Strawberry passion confiture was sour Lime Wire: $6.75 +No upcharge for no ice -Super disappointed considering this used to be one of my favorite coffee drinks. It was bitter & sour, which made it difficult to finish. In addition, it was served in a plastic cup that wasn't filled to the top and missing the dried lime slice. Side notes: 1.) Self-serve napkins and water 2.) Limited street parking 3.) Walking distance from 14/22/49/BART *Verdict: With so many bakeries in the city, I don't think I'd return, especially since everything was mid this time.

It was later of the day cause when I arrived only 2 cupcakes were left, BooHoo. SO I got the remaining chocolate cupcakes with strawberry butter cream. I was w/my daughter and we were getting candy bags as well. Got home tried the cupcakes. It was really good! The chocolate cake is soo moist. I love butter cream frosting but never had strawberry buttercream so I was skeptical! But yes it was really good as well!! The combination of both really satisfied my sweet tooth. I totally recommend and I also would love to visit the other location, ferry building. More cupcakes to feast! (I love the pink bag)

Wow I am impressed with their macaroons and the old fashion cupcake…read more The macaroons are different from others that I tried. They are made with coarsely ground almonds with the skins intact. They do not add any food coloring or processed flavorings, so they are distinctly rustic and natural. It is not sticky, gooey or has too much sugar stuck on them. I like the hazelnut flavor. The cupcakes are decorated nicely. Their Italian Meringue Cupcake is a rich Double-Chocolate cake with a light and fluffy marshmallow-like texture makes me think of a hostess cupcake. I had two yellow cream cheese frosting gingerbread cupcakes, raspberry chocolate and strawberry vanilla cupcake. I am happy with the selection I received which is a great way to try and determine if this bakery knows how to make a good cupcake. I enjoyed their carrot cake cupcake. All cupcakes were nice and moist, the frosting is always the key to a good cupcake. Thank you and I hope to stop by again and try a cake.
