cute little bakery in queen anne, with a lot of fresh pastries, a coffee menu, and even a selection of wines/small treats (chocolate, tinned fish, sauces). looks like there is only an outdoor patio for seating, but it's covered. i got their seasonal croissant, which had a cashew pesto and roasted asparagus on top. the croissant itself was very flaky and buttery, but the star of the show was for sure the cashew pesto. it was so flavorful and had little chunks of nuts which added a nice bite/crunch to it. their other pastries looked so good too, will have to come back to try more. read more

chocolate croissants are to die for here! The layers are so so crisp and yummy, it's the perfect balance of texture and sweetness. It's so good paired with coffee and a view from kerry park Discovered this bakery from my friend who is a regular here! We craved this place multiple times a week while I was visiting. I had pastries from here as my last meal/breakfast before my flight and brought 5 to go Simon is super helpful and friendly whenever we visit and has the best recs! I'll def be visiting next time I visit seattle read more

Had the bear claw and it was perfectly flaky and soft. Even though it's not that cheap, i think it's worth it considering the quality and the size of the pastry read more

Love this bakery! The pastries are freshly made everyday and they smell soooooo gooooood! We had a croissant which was really buttery and the seasonal scone was not dry at all. Staff were super friendly and were patient to explain what's on the menu. The shop itself is also very cute and it has some merch, wine and sauces to shop. read more

My Moonrise Bakery visit made me sad. I went there a little before 3pm on a Friday. Many workers, only one other customer-type-person in the establishment. I walked in, looked at the people, walked around the whole store, looked at menu and shiny things. Maybe I'm used to pre-covid Friendly-times, but today I got no greeting, no acknowledgement by anyone. I went there to load up on some some treats(!) for the afternoon and possibly dessert at home. (We even have an afternoon thing called "Kaffee und Kuchen" in the old country) But see photo for what options were available at this BAKERY with an hour left before closing. One cookie and some croissants. That's all. "Come here early in the morning for best selection." - Um, OK, Moonrise worker person, but to you I say, Good Luck for the next hour when your bakery has no baked goods. And not to pile on or anything, but YES they do have lots of wine. Wine and more wine. Much wine! Call me old-fashioned, or perhaps my days of blowing a day by day-drinking are behind me, but from a marketing perspective it seems very weird to A) Sell tons of wine in a store that closes at 4pm and B) Be a bakery that has scant few baked goods. On the plus side my macchiato was good! Timely, tasty and well-crafted. read more

Quality products and good people = the recipe for a great business! Moonrise is right on the ave., offering pastries, small sandwiches, and craft coffee. I enjoyed an iced mocha (not sweet), a berry kouign Amman, and a lemon olive oil cake (my favorite!) The pastries are shareable and delectable:) read more

Moonrise has incredible French pastries. I've had their Kouign-Amann, their Gruyere Pull-aparts and their twice baked Almond Croissants. All are a class act, made precisely the way they should be. They have a cute little patio area in their front "yard" with most of the seating being covered if some rain should begin to drop. They open at 7am so you can grab fresh pastries and a coffee/latte. They use Olympia coffee beans. I'm glad to have them in the neighborhood, where El Diablo Coffee used to be. read more

I stopped in on Sunday and everything seemed quite promising but when I got home I found my croissant was rancid. I hope they will either start getting fresh butter every day or keeping the butter in the freezer. It's too bad that they have apparently not done so because the other options on Sundays are limited and this could have been a nice neighborhood place for those of us who live on Queen Anne read more

Cute little bakery on Queen Anne ave. The ham and Gruyère croissant was so good! Wish I would've got 2! Had an iced mocha that was good, not overly sweet. Wish it had a bolder espresso flavor though. Person at the front was friendly. Fast service on a Thursday late morning. read more

Like many people coming in to Seattle, with the traffic and the parking being sporadic and claustrophobic, one simply continues driving until they find a spot. Well my family and I ventured all the way to Queen Anne, where we found this French bakery. The aroma of fresh pastries, bread, and other French delicacies (such as their soups and coffee) lures you in. Inside you'll find more of a posh interior, with paintings and chandeliers up above you. Food wise is very good (I had the twice baked almond croissant), though next time I'm up here I would like to try their bacon and cheddar croissant. A great place to unwind, grab a coffee, and feel yourself slowly walk into an environment that reminds you of thof France. Friendly staff and in a quaint little neighborhood in Queen Anne. What more is there left to say then Bon Appetit! read more

Moonrise hired a new baker within the last several months and they go above and beyond in terms of presentation. It's always so exciting to walk in and see all of the vibrant colors/flavors baked into the croissants. I overheard a woman saying that they are about to swap out a couple of the current pastries for a pumpkin pastry and swap out the savory tomato one for an autumn themed mushroom. The staff are friendly. I love that they serve the food on cute trays and actually serve drinks in reusable mugs if you choose to sit down. They have a nice covered area outside like a green house as a well as some chairs on the porch. There is minimal seating in the cafe but they have a great view of the street. The interior is so cute with the packaged coffee/tea, wine and nonalcoholic drink selection. read more

I have not known a bakery that has changed several times, yet seems to continue to make deliriously delicious pastries, each time. Each one unique! Each one memorable! Each one tasty! Olympia Roasting Company teamed up and started a bakery called Moonrise Bakery, atop Queen Anne Hill, in the Queen Anne neighborhood, Seattle, WA. Their bakers use delicious simple ingredients and make the most magnificent pastries, like Lemon Olive Oil Cake, Twice Baked Chocolate Almond Croissants, Kouign-Amann and more! Pair these goodies with some of their Olympia Coffees / Wine, then you'll be in heaven! It's a great little spot, plenty of outdoor seating a limited indoor, if you're ever in Seattle. read more

A month or two ago I would have given this place 5 stars but every time (4 total) I came in the last month they were out of my favorite croissant before noon. ( I know it's popular so I need to get there earlier). I went in today and to my delight there were some twice baked almond croissants left around noon! I'm not sure if there's a new chef but this is not the same croissant I know and love. I'll try again because maybe they had a bad batch, but I'm very hesitant. Overall, service was good. Most of the guys that work here are super friendly. It's a very cute and cozy place to read a book and a enjoy a pastry. read more

Great little spot! Cute (clean) shop with really nice outdoor seating. Service was friendly and very fast. I got an iced coffee, pesto egg muffin, and cinnamon twist. The coffee was good and I loved the cinnamon twist; the sandwich was just okay. I feel like it needed more pesto. It's popular so items do sell out. I definitely recommend it! read more

YALL I love this place. I am a regular so maybe I'm biased, but the London fog is super good and the everything croissant is my favorite. For the sweet side, honestly the hazelnut croissant or even their crisp cookie. Staff is a vibe, it's giving frfr. One thing I don't like is how bright it is in there, but I'm always like a little hungover walking in so that's just me. Also omg recently tried the hot cocoa, pretty good! read more

Amazing coffee, fun patio and high quality pastries! I've visited many times and the staff is always very friendly, and all of the pastries are incredible and gorgeous! read more

Stumbled across this amazing bakery cafe but Look no further as you'll find yourself in awe with the ambience and clean and simplistic atmosphere in the heart of Queen Anne. The smells of fresh baked goods from croissants to their featured item Kouign Amann can be smelt the moment you step through the door. Ordered my classic latte and paired it with their fruit croissant which exceeded my expectations. The latte wasn't bitter and had a nice consistency. I could taste notes of chocolate and berries which had a dense heavy body. I believe the baristas mentioned they used the big truck organic beans from Olympia. I would highly recommend taking a bag or two home available in 12/1bs. For the pastries they had a pretty solid selection. The fruit croissant was flaky, buttery and absolutely divine! The fruit and pear jam just made it the perfect pastry. Given that they're a bakery you know what to expect beforehand However their pastries tend to sell out between 11-1pm along with their breakfast wraps which was the only downside! read more

We came here for a quick breakfast on a Sunday morning and got a couple breakfast sandwiches plus a chocolate croissant. There was almost no line because the service was pretty quick. This bakery has a nice patio to sit and enjoy the pleasant weather while eating breakfast. The breakfast sandwiches were good but not amazing, and the chocolate croissant was nice and crunchy and flaky, although not the best croissant I've ever had. Overall I was pretty happy with this breakfast stop. read more

I've had their ham and gruyere croissant and gruyere pull apart from Olympia Coffee in West Seattle, and they were so good I wanted to check out the bakery itself. We got a bunch of things to try, and honestly those 2 are still my favorite and will be what I stick to. For list and photos of what we got: - Berry Kouign Amann $4.50 - Cream Cheese Croissant $4.75 - Seasonal Scone $4.25 (I think it was cherry and vanilla) - Ham and Gruyere Croissant $5 - Spinach and Feta Croissant $4.75 - Gruyere Pull Apart $3.25 - Butter Croissant $3 - Twice Baked Almond Croissant $5 - Pain Au Chocolate $4.75 - Chocolate Cream Puff $5 - Sausage Omelette Melt $5.75 - Haupia Latte $5.85. I didn't really taste any haupia. ***** My Star Ratings: 1 Star - Terrible. Just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars - Meh. Unlikely for me to return. 3 Stars - OK. Open to coming back, but wouldn't go out of my way to. 4 Stars - Yummy! Will definitely return if I haven't already. 5 Stars - AMAZING!!! Would plan my day or even a trip around eating here. read more

Long time followers of this program will know that I am a slut for pastries. I come here a lot and I've tried almost everything at this point. The service is nice and the place is cute but the pastries are all good but not great. read more

This is a super cute spot! Lots of yummy pastries stare you in the face as soon as you walk through the doors of this old Victorian house changed into a bakery. I ordered the soup (cream of mushroom) and a half sandwich. The baguette bread was HUGE which made for great dipping bread. The food was great, I'd say 4 or 5 stars. Simple and perfect. The atmosphere was lovely, we sat outside on the porch. 1 star knocked off for lack of staff friendliness and engagement. (When I asked what the soup of the day was, she mutely pointed to a board hung out of clear eye sight when standing at the register... who does that?) For those of you who are as obsessive as me- food safety rating is 'Good' read more

Cold, hard and dense twice baked croissants but Gruyere pull apart was delicious. Needed to warm the pastries and they tried to hassle me about it. Staff doesn't appear interested in serving food that customers enjoy. Fresh flours in Phinney and Macrina on the other end of Queen Anne are vastly better. read more

Lovely neighborhood bakery with a small but solid selection of baked goods. The kouign-amann warmed up was a delight! Also liked their coffee beans, especially the Ethiopia (Banko). read more

This bakery has flaky croissants, nice ambiance and tasty coffee. It's right off of the semi busy Queen Anne ave n and next to a bunch of other cool coffee shops/ cafes and restaurants. Coffee is from Olympia but I believe the pastries are made in house. The mama mozz sandwich was a small little breakfast sandwich with peppers, mozzarella and egg. It had a spicy little kick to it. This little shop supports local and sources it's ingredients locally. It even has its own apparel and sells wine beer and spirits! Only downside is this place closes at 4pm read more

The twice baked almond croissant is a masterpiece. It gets the ultimate compliment: perfectly sweet, meaning it's not too sweet. The key is to get it warmed up so the texture on the outside is toasted and crunchy while the inside is a heavenly soft texture. The coffee was perfect too. read more

Went in and ordered thinking this place is still Le Reve (which was always wonderful) as Google Maps was mistakenly not showing "permanently closed." First time I had stale croissants (they looked OK but taste/texture/temp) in a "bakery." Egg sandwich looked premade and warmed up in microwave... to the point that bread was soft and cheese melted beyond control... Lattes had proper texture but lacked flavor and were way too hot then they should had been. We ordered dine in. They served the "croissants" on a large tray for two of us to share. We asked for cutlery but all they had were forks, no knives... sigh. So many other bakeries in town... Cute place and friendly staff. That's why the two stars. Perhaps this was an off day but consistentcy is important. Hope they will improve. read more

This place is amazing! They always have savory croissants and pastries which is really important to me. I have tried a few different items and loved all of them, plus the staff is very friendly. Not a ton of indoor seating but they do have a large patio and the energy is great. read more

Learn something new every day, right? Today I learned what a kouign amann is, and dang, is it decadent. It was recommended to me by the lady at the register, who told me it's their best-selling pastry. It's dense and buttery and sweet and doesn't take many bites for one to feel their sweet tooth has been satisfied. Everything in their pastry case looked delicious. This and the friendly service give Moonrise 5 stars. read more

Nice outdoor seating area. Coffee was pretty good Olympia Coffee. I had the chocolate croissant and chocolate tart. Both were good. The croissant was flaky and buttery. The chocolate tart was rich and dense. However everything on the menu were a bit pricey. read more

Stumbled upon this place because the spot we originally were planning to go to for breakfast was under construction. We even stopped in next door to compare & we were happy with our decision to go to Le Rêve. The metal tables, chairs and umbrellas outside provide a European look. Inside we loved the dark wood floors and tables that gave off a homey vibe. They had a wonderful array of baked goods and menu items - providing options for everyone's diet preferences from gluten free to vegetarian. My mocha was one of the best I've had in a while. The blueberry cheese danish was given positive reviews from the hostess herself and I second it. Lastly the avocado egg toast was superb: perfectly toasted, the right thickness and yet still soft. read more

OK, I know this place doesn't need any help, just looking at their pastries. You will know it's the best place around town! Unbelievable, pastries unbelievable flavors beautifully done not bad prices either very very nice place. Very nice people. I have to keep out of this place! Or I will eat everything in there lol! read more

I have frequented moonrise for a couple years and have always loved the coffee and pastries but unfortunately their new chef has prioritized aesthetics over taste. The pastries are certainly instagram ready, but I don't think I'll be eating them often anymore. Not as buttery and too sweet. The Kougin Aman ( my favorite) is a sad mockery of the previous one, and the ham and cheese croissant is just off. I'm giving 4 stars because I want to support and hope they can improve. read more

Whoaaaa these pastries are next-level. I don't eat pastries often so when I do, I want them to be worth it (the extra calories, the skin breakouts I get when I eat dairy). I get so disappointed when I go for a pastry and it wasn't worth it. These pastries however are 100% that's what I'm talking about. When I want to impress people with some great local pastries they'll remember, this is it. Best I've had in Seattle so far. read more

I have never left a review ..... but the last few months when eating at moonrise something is different . They used to have the best pastries, double baked almond croissants - incredible . Kouign buttery , flaky, sticky wonderful. Now all of a sudden everything is different,just run of the mill . So disappointing... bring back your old pastry chef !!!! read more

I've been to Moonrise Bakery a few times and keep coming back for the delicious pastries, lattes, and adorable outdoor space. I really like their almond croissant and their kouign amann and their seasonal latte called sweater weather. Their prices are a bit high compared to other cafes, but its definitely a nice treat. Their outdoor space is out of the cutest around and I love bringing my pup here to enjoy some breakfast with friends. read more

Great bakery in queen anne on the main drag near the queen anne coffee house. You can smell it from the street. Lots of seating options outside. They serve limited pastries and coffee. We got the coconut macaron (2$) and lemon olive oil cake(6$). Both were perfectly made. Lovely light lemon flavor with excellent delicious crumb on the cake. The macaron was average- as good as something you could make at home though. Bakery smelled great and friendly service. read more

Moonrise is definitely one of the better bakeries in Seattle. Their sweet pastries are quite flaky and have great layers. My favorite pastry item is their kougin amann, and I especially enjoy their Berry kougin amann. I also enjoy their almond croissant quite well. Their savory croissants are delicious and also flaky but are less crispy than I'd like. I believe this could be remedied if you toast it at home, but not all of us have the time for that. For a savory balance to the sweet pastries, I like their quiche. It is a bit dense, but I think that's what I prefer in quiches (although I feel like that might not be "classically correct"). It has great flavor and the crust is so deliciously buttery. As most bakeries, they sell out on pastries quite early, even on the week day, so go before lunchtime if you have your eye on something specific. Also to add while I really like their pastries, I personally only find their coffee to be okay for Seattle standards. For the average non-Seattle-ite though, their coffee is top-tier, as this bakery is owned by Olympia Bakery. I do have to commend them for constantly changing out their specialty drink menu though. They pick a theme and run with it in a very creative way. Those are definitely worth it if one of the drinks interests you. read more

Gruyère pull apart. Buttery, cheesy, flaky heavenly muffin shaped perfection. My guy had these in Olympia coffee roasting on Olympia's west side on a visit and found where to get them in the city. It's a lovely quiet space right on Queen Anne with a covered courtyard and outdoor seating. We were there in the early afternoon and the case was plenty full of choices. The baker was pulling a fresh batch of croissants out of the oven. I am used to have to get anywhere in Seattle at the crack of dawn to get a good selection, so that was nice. They were welcoming. It was relaxing. I'll be back. read more

Wow. I'm sitting on the cozy porch of Moonrise Bakery in utter shock, watching the snow fall. How can pastries taste this good? It almost feels like I am doing something bad - something wrong. The Kouign-Amann and Gruyère Pull-Apart were simply perfection. These guys have a wonderful operation going and I can't remember tasting a better pastry - even in Paris! I would drive a long way for these pastries - believe me, it's worth it! read more
