Wow, this was such an amazing spot. Stopped by for a day in San Francisco before going to Europe…read more Heard all the hype about this spot so I had to drop by. We waited about an hour on a Friday morning. On to the baked goods, it was some of the best bakery goods I've tried ever. Everything was delicious in every way. My favorite had to be the coffee cake, the elote corn, and the Lorraine. Wow, so damn good. I know their menu changes, but it's a must try as their base dough for all their items are PERFECT. Each bite is amazing with such a crunch. Their corn latte was also super delicious.

After hearing all the hype and braving a near 2 HOUR wait in line....sorry, it wasn't quite up to…read morepar for me. There are better bakeries for lower effort. Let's start with the good. The namesake Pistachio Cardamom croissant was excellent for a filled croissant. It had excellent layers and the cream was just enough to add a lusciousness to each bite that wasn't too heavy. The madame lorraine was my other favorite. It was meaty and rich with the soft baked runny yolk and the light touch of rosemary was just enough to accentuate the bite. The not as good...a standard butter croissant. Maybe we got a dud but there was a serious lack of layers in ours and it wasn't as crisp or as buttery as I like. The elote corn croquiche filling was also quite salty which was a shame because the pastry layer was pretty good. I still have two more pastries to try but given the weight and the mixed bag, I definitely expected a lot more from Butter & Crumble. Pro tip: get a butter croissant at Arsicault, walk to B Patisserie and get a kouign amann. You'll have both before the line moves here.

Items Order: 9/10 Egg Tart $3.75 - larger than average egg tart. It comes piping hot and fresh. the shell is very buttery but holds well. custard is very hongkong style (eggy/milky vs the custardy Portuguese version).

Absolutely yes! We…read morehave very high standards when it comes to pineapple buns. We frequent Hong Kong and miss the classic thick butter tucked into a warm flaky pineapple bun. This place does that and takes it up a notch! They have different flavored butter which was very interesting but it absolutely works! We got the sampler and we devoured all four. Also picked up 8 classics and they were all very good. The bun is light and airy but has a good buttered undertone. And about $2 each for the classic pineapple bun (not butter), they are cheaper than most standard bakeries these days. So good, highly recommend!

Tartine absolutely lives up to its reputation. We tried the chocolate chip cookie, turkey sandwich,…read morefruit tart, and corn salad, and everything felt thoughtfully made with high-quality ingredients! The chocolate chip cookie had crisp edges, a soft center, and plenty of rich chocolate without being overly sweet with the salt touch. The turkey sandwich had soft bread, quality turkey, and the chicken skin is unique and provided a balance would love to try a panini next. The fruit tart was beautiful and incredibly fresh, with perfectly ripe fruit and a light, creamy filling that wasn't too sweet. The corn salad was a pleasant surprise too and maybe a favorite with bright herby bites that complemented the richer bakery items. Everything tasted fresh, and you can tell Tartine focuses on quality rather than overcomplicating dishes. Expect a line, especially during peak hours, but it's worth the wait. Whether you're stopping in for pastries or lunch, it's an iconic San Francisco bakery that's easy to recommend.

Otherwise, it's just banana on a pie crust w/ thin chocolate shell, topped by whipped cream.

Not very flakey, but has that sourness. There's a small seating outside. Overall, a great place to get baked goods value.

I've been here a few times and this time I remembered to take photos of the pastries before digging in! We tried the ube twice-baked croissant, ham and cheese croissant, curry potato bourek, and the spicy chicken pepper sausage croissant. Every pastry was perfectly flaky on the outside while staying soft and buttery on the inside. My favorites were the spicy chicken pepper sausage croissant and the ube twice-baked croissant. The savory pastries were packed with flavor, and the ube croissant struck the perfect balance of sweetness without being overpowering. I also love that they offer unique pastries you don't find at most bakeries. The café itself is small and cozy, and the staff were warm and friendly. It's usually packed, but we arrived at the perfect time and were able to grab everything we wanted before they sold out. We'll definitely be back to try more of their delicious pastries!

While it's not my first time here, it's been a long time and we tried something new and unique: CHEWIE COOKIE - $9 each They had 2 flavors and since we couldn't decide on which, we got both! And man I really get the hype of adding Katalfi into the mix. It's like today's rice crisps in a chocolate bar. Only, you add pistachio cream into the mix! These "cookies" are wrapped in a layer of soft chewy mochi, and when you bit into it, there's an amazing sweet crunch from the Katalfi. They advise to wait 15 minutes before eating since it's kept fridge rated. Worth giving a try! MATCHA CHEWIE COOKIE - Matcha Marshmallow with matcha Katalfi filling. DUBAI CHEWIE COOKIE - Cocoa marshmallow with Pistachio, Katalfi, and Milk Chocolate. It seems a lot of items were sold out by the time we got there, but not these "CHEWIE COOKIES!"

Kalbijjim Croissant - A surprisingly delicious combination with savory shredded kalbi that worked much better than expected. 2. Injeolmi (Mochi) Croissant - Wonderfully chewy with a balanced sweetness that lets the injeolmi flavor shine. 3. Hojicha Cream Puff - Rich hojicha flavor, a crisp pastry shell, and a generous amount of creamy filling. 4. Banoffee Croissant - My favorite pastry; rich, indulgent, and reminiscent of crème brûlée with banana, though definitely the sweetest and very filling. 5. Hotteok Pastry - Sweet, nostalgic, and a creative take that captures the flavors of traditional Korean hotteok beautifully. Overall, service was excellent and they're very nice to spend time explaining each pastry. Freshly baked. I love the korean twist and there's no other bakery like this that I've had. Definitely worth a try.
