Review I was really looking forward to trying Pookies after…read morehearing so many locals rave about it. I've had pastries in Italy, France, and some of the top bakeries across the U.S., so I was genuinely curious to see if Pookies lived up to the hype. I'll give credit where it's due: the location is beautiful, the decor is impressive, and the staff were absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, the food and pricing left me very disappointed. I paid nearly $10 for a "premium" ham and cheese croissant that appeared to have been reheated, and I honestly couldn't tell how fresh it was. Unfortunately, it tasted more like a basic cheese-and-meat hot dog than a premium croissant. At that price, I expected significantly better quality ingredients and execution. For me, $5 would have felt reasonable, and perhaps $6 for supporting a local business. Nearly $10 for what I received was simply not worth it. For comparison, I've had excellent, fresh-baked goods at 365 Bakery in Ingram at much more reasonable prices. I recently paid around $10 for a jalapeño cheese loaf that was large enough to feed six people. I'm glad I finally gave Pookies a try, and I'm especially glad I can say that the staff and atmosphere were excellent. Unfortunately, based on the food quality and pricing, I won't be returning. I also found the owner's response disappointing. Rather than addressing the concerns about value, it came across as dismissive. That response reinforced my feeling that the business is comfortable with its pricing, even when customers feel the quality doesn't justify it. Everyone has different tastes and expectations, but for me, Pookies simply wasn't worth the price.

I ordered a cup of Lavender Gelato and OMG, it was so fresh, smooth, and delicious . The sweetness was so satisfying, not too sweet and it didn't lack sweetness. I ordered a cheesecake pastry to take back to my hotel room for a snack later on. Service: The people of Kerrville and the Kerr County area have been through a lot over the past year. As survivors, they are resilient and believe in being there for one another. I had a list of questions for the young gentleman who took care of me that day. The questions were regarding the products in the shop, his experience as a Kerr County resident, and what he has witnessed in terms of the before and after the floods. He was very kind, patient, empathetic, and professional yet people friendly. He knew the products very well which is not always the case in various establishments. The way he provided top notch customer made me want to return the next day and I did. I will be back the next time I am in town. Atmosphere: The store was clean, beautifully decorated and quite welcoming. If you're ever in the area, please take the time to visit Pookie's Patisserie and try a cup of coffee, pastries, gelato and/or a savory treat. You will not regret it.

It was very prevalent throughout the entire coffee shop & further demonstrated through the personable customer service! The coffee was excellent, we got the vanilla bean breve with their seasonal pumpkin spice cold foam. The pairing was delicious & I loved the notes of pumpkin in my coffee. As well we got an organic brown sugar cinnamon breve latte with a salted maple cold foam, which was also very good!
