The lady running the patisserie was very sweet and patient while my friend and I were indecisive about our pastry choices. Honestly though, you can't go wrong here! I personally enjoyed the strawberry champagne, blueberry cheesecake, and raspberry macarons. The ham and cheese croissant could have used more ham and if I could warm it in the microwave, it would have been the cherry on top My friend liked the lavender carrot cake but be sure to remove the lavender piece on top otherwise the flavor will be "intense" is how she described it lol It's a cute and cozy spot. Recommend to visit on a weekday due to the intimate seating. There's a rocky parking lot not too far from the building if there is no street parking available. read more

Rocheli Patisserie - Interior decoration and seating. Ham and cheese croissant, raspberry, strawberry champagne, and blueberry cheesecake macarons. - Bakeries Near Me - Austin, Texas

I tried the pistachio and blueberry Trompe-l'œil fruit desserts. I've had similar desserts in San Antonio, Fort Worth, and Oklahoma City, so I have a good basis for comparison. While both desserts were beautifully presented, I felt they were overpriced for their size. Based on similar desserts I've enjoyed elsewhere, I think a more reasonable price would be around $9.99 for the blueberry and $12.99 for the pistachio. The pistachio dessert had a pleasant crunchy texture, but the pistachio flavor was too subtle and could have been much more pronounced. The blueberry dessert had excellent flavor, but it lacked the crisp outer shell that adds contrast to the texture. It seemed like it may not have been as fresh as it should have been, which could explain the softer exterior. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service. Overall, while the presentation and service were impressive, I expected better value and texture for the price. read more

Rocheli Pastisserie is a cool and very French East Austin bakery. I actually have seen this bakery on social media as its known for its real looking items such as strawberries and lemons. The pastries are artfully designed and finished. However, they are about $15 each, which a bit pricey for one baked good. Thus, I opted for the more reasonably priced ham and cheese croissant instead. Rocheli also sells macaroons, cakes and other baked goods. The croissant was buttery with sesame seeds and sea salt on top...unusual toppings for a croissant. While the croissant had cheese, it was not oily or dripping. My bakery cashier grabbed my croissant and heated for me and was very pleasant. The croissant was enjoyable to eat. While in the shop there were two ladies having pastries, so a very chill vibe. read more

Rocheli Patisserie is a real gem in my neighborhood, and I love that it's just a quick 10-minute walk from my apartment. Whenever I step inside, I'm always so impressed by all of their beautiful and delicious offerings, from the delicate macarons and buttery croissants to their stunning custom cakes. It is exactly the kind of place I go to purchase desserts for special occasions, or simply to treat myself to a latte and a sweet bite on a quiet afternoon. If you are looking for a little slice of Paris here in Austin, do yourself a favor and stop by this charming French bakery. read more

This is the sweetest coffee shop ever, in more ways than one! The decor is so very French, and all the pastries look beautiful and scrumptious! My running group held our monthly Sunday coffee run from there, and it was one of my favorite places. Right after our group walked, the pastry chef/server presented us with a tray of freshly baked complimentary puff pastries. They were delicious...flaky and just sweet enough. Because she was wearing a beret and looked very French, I asked the server if she indeed was of that nationality. She replied no, but said she was trained by a French pasty chef. She learned well! (I don't normally eat sweets, but I couldn't resist having one. It was not too sweet..:just flaky and perfect!) I ordered a standard coffee. Because there were so many of us ordering coffee and specialty drinks, it took a while to get them . But I could forgive the slowness; we were enjoying ourselves during the wait. Wonderful coffee shop that I will go back to! read more

I heard about this place and their gorgeous pastries. It has taken me a while to finally come here. There is a struggle to find parking. It's limited street parking. The pastries are all in glass cases. They're all very beautiful. They are a little pricey, but if they are as good as they look, well worth it. You can truly see that these pastries are hand done and I'm sure it takes a lot of patience for these works of art to be complete. I did purchase the white chocolate raspberry tart. They packed it up nicely in a box and I brought it home. The tart isn't sugary sweet. It's very light and fluffy. The raspberry filling is satisfying. The tart itself is a little hard to cut with a fork, but it was still good. I would come back if I'm in the area again read more

Walk into the cutest little shop that gives off Parisian vibes. We originally came for the viral fruit mousse. Looks like these can only be purchased pre-order guys so order them before you come. They still had other unique pastry options so we had to try. This would be a great place to wear that cute little dress you've always been wondering where to wear. Bring your girls (daughters or besties) and enjoy! read more

Enthusiastic locals practically pushed me through the doors of Rocheli Patisserie, and I'm so glad they did. I came back three times during a short trip because everything about this place pulled me in! Each pastry feels like a work of art. The croissant was flaky layers of buttery perfection, the chocolate éclair rich without being over the top, and the apple tart? Honestly, unforgettable. Everything I sampled on my multiple trips blew me away. The staff were so kind and welcoming every time I walked in, pair that with an ambiance that feels like stepping into a Parisian dream with floral touches, glowing neon signs, and an elegance that makes you feel like you're about to have tea with royalty..and it's pure magic! This patisserie isn't just beautiful it is the kind of place that lingers with you long after you've left. I can't wait to return! read more

This place is MAD cute and very my style with the floral cocktails/airy French theme inside. The server was helpful and sweet, and my rose tea latte which she recommended was perfectly sweet and floral, without being too sweet. The pastries looked amazing too but I didn't get any since I was getting dessert somewhere else after. They have some tables and seats along the wall and just inside; there aren't a lot but when I came on a Thursday in the late afternoon around 4:30-5p only one other table was taken. I was there to study for an hour before dinner and the French music and summery vibe made for a very cozy spot. There was one unisex bathroom, it was quite clean. And you can park directly in front of the place free along the road (parallel parking). Overall will def be back to try other drinks including their Paris fog (lavender latte) and other floral drinks! read more

Cute and pretty space. Disappointed with the pastries. Ordered the strawberries and cream croissant and the Kouigh-amann and both were ice cold and not fresh. I'm surprised the owner serves old pastries. A deal breaker for me is being served ice cold old pastries. The pistachio latte was lukewarm. Also ordered the fruit mousse- chocolate hazelnut crunch and pistachio cherry christmas tree. Both ice cold as well, taste was okay, not great. Not worth the $14.99 each price. I've been to other pastry shops in the area and most serve fresh pastries and I have visited pastry shops in Europe (Paris, Rome, London, Florence, Geneva to name a few) so I can spot fresh and tasty pastries. Not coming back and will not recommend. read more

I stopped in to try the kouign amann. The staff was polite, though not especially warm or welcoming. I wasn't the only one in there which was a little bit of a red flag for me on a sunday morning. I actually bought kouign amanns from three different Austin bakeries that day, and this one was my least favorite by a wide margin. A great kouign amann should have crisp, caramelized, sugary edges with a buttery, flaky interior. Unfortunately, this one had none of that signature crunch. Instead, the outside was oddly soft and almost sticky or damp, rather than crisp and caramelized and almost tasted like it had either been sitting out for a while or stored in the refrigerator, with a flavor that seemed to have absorbed surrounding odors. I'm not sure if it was just an off day, but I took one bite and couldn't finish it. The other two bakeries I visited that day delivered the crisp, buttery texture I was expecting, so this one was a disappointment. read more

I went to check this place out after seeing posts about it online. The Dubai coffee wasn't my favorite as it was too sweet for me and tasted more like a dessert than coffee. The desserts, on the other hand, were great. I had the Flight to Paris and the croissant supreme. I would definitely order both again. The croissant supreme is like a crème brûlée croissant with a custard filling and a crunchy caramelized sugar coating. I'd honestly come back just for that. The shop itself is super cute. I love the pink heart-shaped straws they use. Service was quick and easy. My friend and I noticed they also offer afternoon tea, but you have to make a reservation in advance. It's a great spot to catch up with a friend or get some work done and the location is also close to a lot of nice spots in the area. Street parking can be a little tough to find, but I've never had a problem. read more

I pre-ordered a fruit mousse box from Rocheli Patisserie and enjoyed the viral sweet treats at home. At the time of ordering (October 2025), the fruit box contained 4 mousses for about $64. You were only able to pre-order the box, not individual mousses. And the mousses were ONLY available via pre-order. The mousses were tasty but not worth the price, in my opinion. The apple was the best, featuring apple chunks inside the mousse. The pear contained pear chunks too. And while the chocolate exteriors were gorgeous, yummy and so smooth, I just don't think they are worth the price, if you have to order all four. If you have the extra spending money and are going to be in Austin for a few days, make a pre-order and get a box to share with others! But I wouldn't say this is a must try. The mousses must be refrigerated. They are not travel friendly. read more

Super cute French inspired bakery that just opened in East Austin. Parking is difficult on the street but around the corner there is additional free parking. The cafe is small but definitely great for photo ops with friends. The viral mouse fruit desserts are a bit pricey but delicious and with the splurge. The cafe recommends pre ordering certain items since they have been going viral online. They offer a variety of teas, French style pastries and mouse desserts! read more

I drove an hour based on their viral fruit mousse desserts. The website is a broken Square site with no menu, no clear ordering process, and booking links that do not work. When I arrived there were more than a dozen fruit mousse desserts in the case. I wanted 6. When I began to tell her which ones, the attendant stopped me to say I could not purchase any because they are special order items that must be ordered in advance on the website. That's fine of course. The one problem I had is, there is nothing on the website indicating this, and there is no way to order anything there anyway. I double checked when I got back in my car, and then I called the bakery after leaving and the employee on the phone confirmed that there is actually no way to order on the website at all and that orders must be placed by phone or Instagram DM. That directly contradicts what I was told in person not but 5 minutes prior. I left feeling disappointed to say the least. I could clearly see multiple trays of the exact desserts I came for, but was told I was not allowed to buy them. This was one and a half hours before closing, mind you. I had so many questions. Were they expecting a rush and didn't want to sell to me? Were they other customers' special orders and they were waiting for them to come pick them up? Were they just beautiful display desserts only intended to show what they look like? If so, a sign stating so would have brought my review up to 3 stars. The customer experience was robotic, unhelpful, and contradictory. I don't think I'm ever make another trip there. This bakery needs to fix its digital ordering process, fix its training, and stop confusing customers as some of us are travelling to purchase items that are on display but not actually available for sale. I was so excited to visit. But I left not knowing what to think about the place. If I were to be generous I'd sum up my experience as 'confusing'. If I were to give in to my concerns, I'd say I left feeling snubbed. read more

Went here with Jamie A for a pastry catchup chat. We picked this for the Dubai Chocolate Croissant we had seen on Instagram. The spot is cute and they connect well with the French vibe by the staff wearing berets and the "Bonjour" greeting. The case has works of art in it - however, I think some look better than they tasted. What we came for was just OK - the pistachio cream wasn't quite as prominent as we thought it should have been and the chocolate glaze on top was a bit too much. It's an intimate vibe with small cafe tables. There is a gender-neutral bathroom. Parking is neighborhood streets only, but was relatively easy for us both to find. read more

As a returning customer I have been very disappointed in my last few recent visits. Customer service is extremely poor. After this last visit I will not return or recommend new customers word of mouth as I have. The last few visits including today I was not acknowledged or greeted upon entering,even after standing and waiting 5 mins. By the time she was ready to take orders she skipped over me in line asking the couple that just walked in can she help. The customer then let her know I was ahead of him. I came to make a preorder for my company's events and was told they no longer take preorders after I was told over the phone preorders were only to be taken in store. This place has become so unwelcoming I will gladly take my support elsewhere! read more

I would first like to compliment the ambiance of this place. It is a beautiful little shop in Austin with lovely customer service. The spot is a cute for a girls spot or just for fun. Now let's get down to the bakery offerings and coffee. I think the presentation is adorable, your coffee with a pink heart shaped straw. Absolutely! The coffee itself did not taste like it had much flavoring. There were rose petals present but it tasted no different than an ordinary coffee. Given, there another coffee shop right next door coming for coffee is debatable. Coming for sweet treats, however, especially one where you want to share the presentation is a good idea! The supreme croissant: I really enjoyed this creme filled croissant with a crackle from the outside coating. I would say the pricing was fair given the presentation and how yummy it was. I will definitely have to come back to try their other croissant offerings. Macaroons: Okay, side note, as a baker, I consider myself a macaroon enthusiast! While, I only remembered to take one picture, I order two orders of 6 pieces (12 total) to try every macaroon in their selection. My favorite was the Cherry and the raspberry cheesecake. While the flavors were good, I wish I would have asked how fresh they were. I ordered a lot and was disappointed that some I bit into were stale. I feel like this shop does need to be careful with how long they are keeping them lingering. I felt like each one was inconsistent, but the blueberry lemon ones specifically were all stale and hard to chew. That's why they lost a star. Cheers, give it a try for yourself. It's cute for the vibrant feel. read more

This is the kind of place you go once to see what the fuss is about and then never again. It's beautiful but small inside and when it is empty, it gets kind of awkward. I was the only patron there at the time and the space isn't exactly welcoming. The workers are okay; not the friendliest. Dessert was pretty mid for how expensive it was. I got a lemon curd tart and some type of white chocolate pudding, and the total was just under 20 bucks. read more

I was so excited to find this shop. After watching the Gilded Age on HBO I planned a themed staycation for my 40th birthday. I found their communication to be nice and visited in person before placing my order, but I have to say I was disappointed in the product received. I provided several inspiration pictures of different cakes and asked if they could surprise me with a design but incorporate a light green somewhere as it's my birthstone. I was told they'd make me something unique, but was left feeling like they didn't even try. I even paid extra to add 4 macarons which were never received. When discussing cake flavors it wasn't clear that you cannot select a filling option to the custom cake flavors they offered, so I was under the impression it would have a raspberry filling. Although the shop did offer to allow me to come back for a high tea service I declined because frankly I'm just hurt and embarrassed to have paid $140 for a mini cake that didn't taste great (flavors were dry and the interior icing wasn't very palatable). It also had a plastic straw embedded in the middle no one warned me about. I ended up having at add rose petals to cover the frosting I messed up by trying to insert one candle because I never knew a straw was there until we cut it open. In the shop you can purchase larger 2 tiered cakes that aren't customizable for about $65 which seems like a better option in hindsight. I messaged them same day and hastily agreed to just a refund of the macarons left off the order, but I'm writing this review after I've had time to think and don't feel a $13 refund seems sufficient. Sincerely, a disappointed patron read more

I just gotta be honest, this was probably the most underwhelming bakery I've ever been to. Fruit shaped pastries were not good. Maybe they are supposed to be a lightly flavored mousse inside but these were basically flavorless. Tried a croissant as well. Tasted old, some parts of it were not consistent (some parts over-baked, some raw areas too) and overall it was way too thick and crunchy to be called a croissant. I would not recommend this place. Seems like it's mostly for social media pictures and hype. read more

What a cute pastry and dessert bakery! It was a weekend morning and we were feeling like a treat and saw great reviews for Rocheli Patisserie. The inside was so cute and really allowed us to relax and savor the experience. The staff were so sweet and kind, and the whole shop gave happy/uplifting vibes. My personal favorite may have been the rose flavored eclair. I can't wait to come back - reminded me of the cafes we visited while in Paris. Also, I'd definitely say this spot is worth the slight $$ as you can tell these pastries were made with extra care. Can't wait to come back!!

The fruit pastries are overpriced at $15 plus tax & tip for each. Mango filling tasted like a fruit cup with basic sponge cake & passion fruit was the better of the two but I wouldn't buy either again. For the price I would've expected something of higher standard. read more

September 2024 Wildly unimpressive. Outrageously overpriced. Like putting lipstick on a pig, Rocheli is clearly more concerned with presentation than developing flavors. Everything I tried was mostly bland and lacked cohesion. Will not return. *staff was friendly Apple Tart Boring and bland. The char on the decorative apple topping provides unwelcome bitterness that detracts from the other flavors. And that's a big deal, given that there are hardly any other flavors present. The coagulated custard center is bland and uninviting. The crust is nice but is a wasted vessel. The "suidgey" texture of the apple topping combine with the gloppy texture of the filling is deeply unpleasant and is unaided by the crust. Do not recommend. 1/10 Pistachio Rose: Boring and bland. The pastry has a "squidgey" texture that's unappealing. The pastry cream has no flavor. The center "donut" is filled with a rose-flavored jelly that's nice and delicate. The green topping has no flavor. Couldn't detect any pistachio flavor anywhere in the pastry. Do not recommend. 1/10 Pistachio Meyer Lemon: A dolled-up lemon square. No pistachio flavor found. Hints of unpleasant bitterness found throughout. Nothing special and underwhelming. Certainly not worth the cost. Do not recommend. 3/10 read more

3.5/5 Rocheli is very aesthetically appealing and has been on my list of places to try for a while. However, the day we visited there was no option but to take the food & drinks to go. The seating inside is scarce, limited to only a couple of tables. That Saturday there was a baby shower reservation taking up most of the seats. The only other table was not part of the party but it was reserved as well. Definitely will have to book a table or tea party in advance. The pastry case is quite stunning and the drink menu was impressive as well. I went with a staff suggestion which was the almond croissant. The pastry filling was quite flavorful and the croissant itself very well crafted. I ordered a Marie Antoinette latte which sounded right up my alley. The drink itself was pink and glittery served with a heart straw so aesthetically the latte lived up to the namesake. Unfortunately, the coffee was burnt so I couldn't taste anything else. Next time I would order tea over coffee. Overall I would try this cafe again with a reservation for a tea party. It would be perfect for a special occasion. Let them eat cake! read more

Probabaly the cutest bakery/patisserie I have come across on my Austin adventures so far! Rocheli brings the best of France to the best state in the US, LOL! The vibe is all there, thanks to the super cute "Bonjour Austin" neon light sign at the front. I ended up visiting during "Barbie weekend" (not planned at all) so they had some extremely pink/Barbie-themed desserts, but I ended up sharing a lavender lemon custard tart and a pistachio eclair with my company. They also have an wide assortment of iced teas and latted, and I helped myself to a rose-flavored one of course!

Boy, do I recommend this place, my compliments to the young lovely baker who makes everything in the display cases. read more

Everything looks so beautiful in the case. I really wanted to like it, I only tried one treat - the chocolate eclair and it was not for me at all. If you had someone close their eyes before they took a bite I truly don't think they would even be able to tell it was a chocolate dessert. It tasted like straight powdered sugar, and maybe like it was stale. You know when your mom used to make something with butter that had been in the fridge too long and it develops that weird "fridge taste". Like that. Maybe they need to clean their display case or maybe it was old. I don't know... would not recommend. read more

I'm a sucker for a French bakery but Rocheli serves more then just the typical croissant & coffee. Came here last weekend to pick up a birthday cake I ordered and so glad I did. There were about a dozen different options to choose from but I ended up with the lavender & lemon cake. The flavors were so light and airy I could have easily eaten the whole cake with my partner in one sitting! Now back to the cafe while I was there I got the Marie Antoinette latte which had hints of rose and raspberry flavors it was so delicious I probably drank most of it before I got home. The overall patisserie isn't very big so if your coming to dine in on the weekend I'd make a reservation for high tea as it was pretty busy when I was there. The girls who work there are all dressed in cute French attire so helps with the overall theme and of course there's tons of different pastries options to choose from tarts to macarons to eclairs! I'll definitely be coming back here to try some of these yummy treats but can't thank Rocheli enough for making my partners birthday that much sweeter! read more

When you need a special little treat, keep Rocheli Patisserie in mind! I met some girlfriends here for tea and pastries a few weekends ago on a Sunday afternoon. Their baked goods are as delicious as they are gorgeous! The space was a little small, but we managed to snag a table. Their main demographic seems to be ladies who want a cute experience, but we saw people picking up a small wedding cake, couples, families, and even a single guy treating himself to several pastries.
