I like the variety of both sweet and savory pastries and desserts they offer here. Some items can be a bit too sweet for my taste, but everything I've tried has been fresh. Overall, I do prefer Paris Baguette in terms of quality, but Tous Les Jours still has plenty of good options. One thing that could really be improved is the service. A lot of the staff come across as cold or unfriendly. One time I came in about 15 minutes before closing, and everyone seemed visibly annoyed that I was there, which made me feel unwelcome. read more

Tous Les Jours - Bakeries Near Me - West Des Moines, Iowa

My husband took me here so I could finally try one of my favorite things; a pastry & some coffee! The community deserves this place! It almost transcends me into a bit of a European vibe of like no big American breakfast but rather a delicious pastry whether sweet or savory. The flow is a bit odd as I wasn't sure whether to access the bakery cases from the right or left but we figured it out. It was SOOO busy but honestly service was quick once we picked out everything we wanted! We tried the guava danish, the milk Cronut, the chocolate hazelnut Cronut, fruit tart, chocolate cloud donut, almond cheese croissant, and the tuxedo cake slice! Everything was 10/10, 5 stars, flaky, tasty, & the textures were on point. And to top it all off- they had a tiramisu latté on the menu. I had to have it & it was everything I could have hoped for! As a true Italian and lover of making tiramisu, it was truly authentic tasting! I will be returning and telling everyone I know to check out Tous Le Jours! read more

Want to try decadent pastries then go to Tous Les Jours. A little expensive but the taste, freshness and options are well worth the price. The choice you have to pick your own flavors is endless. The wait is short and the dining area is very comfortable. read more

We took a "one of everything" approach on our first visit here, trying a lot of items. Everything we had was tasty and very reasonably priced. The only reason we don't give it five stars is because the pastries and food at it's competitor, Nadia's French Bakery (on Grand Ave), are so superior (just exquisite and made with painstaking, old-school techniques). Tous Les Jours is the perfectly fine budget version. read more

Just go here. The best place for coffee and decadent pastries. So many choices for coffee and food. The service was excellent. The place was perfect. Great atmosphere. Just give it a try. read more

We're going middle of the road with a 3, in hopes I can up the rating in the future once the cafe is better established. The place is cute with lots of seating options. The ordering area is a bit crowded and the "flow" of guests was a bit confusing. We visited around 1:00 and they were essentially out of everything. The pastry displays were empty and they were out of all the "cloud foam" drinks. We switched gears for orders and ended up having to wait about 15 minutes for our 4 drinks. The drinks we did receive, however, were enjoyable. Strawberry Lemonade was tart in a good way. Vanilla Latte was pretty milky with the vanilla and coffee as background flavors. Honey Lemon Tea was refreshing and had strong herbal flavor. Matcha Lemonade was a good balance of the two flavors, not too matcha forward. Overall, we'd be willing to go back and try again! They've only been open a week so the judgement isn't too harsh! Hoping that they would have better flow and product ordering/baking in the future. read more

Where do I even begin? It just comes down to management but considering they just open it's best to take it with a grain of salt. Food was completely out so sorry my photo is an empty cabinet. The pastries I was able to try were good and ok on others. I've had tous les jours in bigger cities so I already knew what to expect for food and drink. Love the ube latte! Hopefully management can figure out how to make it better 1. Signs for people to check out if they want to skip the macaron and cake, this would cut the line waiting. 2. Signs of description because a lot of Iowans aren't going to know what yuzu and ube is. 3. More management of availability of items read more

This place is very airy and welcoming. We picked this place for a cake for my niece's 21st birthday. We thought it would be out of the world good. We got there around 3pm on Tuesday. There are only a handful of cakes, and they are all chocolate except this pink one that we picked. What a mistake. Other than the cute look, no one likes it! The icing is like eating butter and the filling between the layers is hard, the cake is dry. We all took one bite and were done. Oh, it's tasteless brown cake inside. So disappointing. read more

Tous Le Jours (TLJ) has many fun Asian-styled pastries. The space and lighting of this location is nice and there are always people coming and going. When going to TLJ, it's best to go early in the day since there is more of a selection to choose from, and pastries are more fresh. Otherwise you'll be getting a small options towards 5PM to when they close. Their cakes are so delicious!!! Not too sweet and light and airy. They are perfect for special occasions and my family love getting them. They are worth the price and they usually come with candles. Their drinks are a hit or miss. Most of the time they are good, but there are times for when you order their special drinks, they often are too sweet! Customer service is also alright. In person they are quick with packing your sweets and are able to accommodate to what you need. However, through the phone, the service is not as great. There is also a TLJ app, but for some reason this location is not listed and I am unable to earn points. I hope it gets updated! Overall, TLJ is a nice stop for hanging out or a quick snack before hitting up the other places in WSDM. read more

This place is so cute. You walk in and get a platter to grab the things you want from the glass displays. There's also a cold bar with other items and drinks. Coffee was good and the staff is always super nice. It's always clean too. read more

4.1 Amazing pastry quality considering it is imported from Korea. Damn good coffee too. Very impressive! read more

Really high quality desserts and pastries. BUT, the place is filthy. Floors look like they haven't been mopped in a week, trash and crumbs the floor everywhere and where you go and get your napkins was dirty too. read more

Sweet and savory options- all delicious! I ordered ahead online which was great. It took about 20 minutes which was perfect for the drive over. I received a text when my order was complete. The service was great! Full of smiles and kindness. One item was out of stock by 9am so they chose the closest to that option for me as a replacement. They also let me know what happened and I appreciate the thoroughness . Go early! As with all fresh bakeries, once an item is out, it is out for the day. It is worth it to have fresh pastries. They had options I've never had anywhere else and I love the creativity of the bake. All in all, 10/10 yums. read more

Delicious! I will say I took advice of others and went EARLY!!!! Go when they open for best selections. :) read more

I will be repeating what the other reviewers stated so i wont. They need to label their bakery goods on both sides of the self serve display as the lines tend to go on both sides when entering from outside. As the indoor 2lines merge into 1 to pay, it becomes aggravating as to whom is allowed to cut in, similar to driving. Very noisy environment for those are bothered by this at peak opening hours. All this newness will die down as time moves forward. read more

We came in on a Saturday during lunch and it was very busy. This is an adorable place, and they had a wide variety of items. People were coming in and out from the kitchen, constantly refreshing the items that were nearly out. We got a number of items, a coffee, and it was only about $27, which we felt was very reasonably priced. When we got home and tried everything we realized we probably should've gotten more. Everything was excellent. We will definitely be back. read more

The food and coffee are amazing! Fresh baked and perfectly baked pastries and breads!

every time I come here even if it's 2 hours before close they literally have nothing good. yet all the workers be so damn ready to close and make you feel like you need to leave when there is still hours before they close. someone please change this because why are they going to be open till 7 if they clearly don't want you there and there is nothing good to purchase! read more

Got a whole cake there but it turn out to be part frozen. I really thought it was freshly baked so I wasn't too please with it. So pretty much wasted my money on a cake no one liked. read more

Lots of options. Quick service. Constantly someone bringing out new pastries. Delicious!!

It is a whole world of pastries and treats in here. Service is top tier, friendly, and is great at keeping shelves stocked. I did not find anything lacking or picked over the several times going here so if on the lookout for something specific, they've got it all from sweet/savory whatever the current mood suggests. The ambiance is clean and sophisticated, yet still warm and inviting so they got you if meeting friends, or maybe a date or colleague. The drinks are my personal top fave - hello Pecan Cloud Latte! read more

I was excited to try but probably won't be back. I got there when they first opened and the pastry cases had barely anything in them. I got the cloud blueberry donut. Mine was good but the person I went with had almost no filling inside it and it was crazy greasy. Not sure how a brand new establishment has already old tasting grease. The drink was okay at best, but I had to wait a long time for it. Like 15 minutes long. But the worker behind the counter was asking their coworkers what they wanted to drink and was making them drinks. The management I would say isn't great. Quality of the product is low and it's pricy! Disappointing read more

The Mont Blanc giant croissants, the lemon macaroons and the twist donuts are all great!

My adult daughter & I stopped in around 10 am on a Tuesday. There was a very large selection of pastries available & it was busy the whole time we were there It's not difficult to figure out the flow of grabbing a tray & tongs, reading the pastry labels, cashier etc We thought the pastry quality was excellent & both would go back again It's a cafe like atmosphere so little noise is to be expected Excellent! read more

PLEASE GET NEW BOXES. The boxes cave in so it doesn't really cover and it doesn't keep the treats fresh.

Wow! I'm so glad we now have a bakery like this! The moment you walk in , you're welcomed with a bright beautiful space. The pastries are presented beautifully. Love that you can serve yourself. The variety and flavors were pure heaven! read more

Such a fun experience! Get there early for the best selection. Take your time, enjoy the experience. Everything was absolutely amazing but if you haven't been just know it's busy. read more

I've visited Tous les Jours a few times now and it never disappoints. They have a huge selection of pastries, cakes, and coffee and somehow they're always surprising me with something new each visit. Their newest strawberry pastry was delightful (light, fresh, not too sweet), and I love that they now offer customized cakes, I even ordered one for next week for my birthday. And this bakery looks clean too. Service is quick, the staff are polite, and someone was constantly bringing out fresh trays so everything tasted just-made. Delicious all around. I'll definitely be back. read more
