AFAR MediaAugust 12, 2014Don't let the long line out the door discourage you—these delicious pastries are well worth the wait and the outdoor café tables make for a lovely spot to dig in once you're handed your treats. Read more
World class chef Thomas Keller + his former executive pastry chef/coauthor Sebastien Rouxel of the Bouchon Bakery cookbook are a fantastic team putting out macarons, muffins, and flakey croissants
Andreas EhnMarch 9, 2015If you want to escape the crowd, bring your sandwiches and pastries and walk five minutes to the French Laundry garden, where you can have a picnic.

Melissa DagdaganApril 20, 2016Try all of the pastries and baked goodies! Make sure to bring treats back for friends and family. Yes, be THAT loving, sweet person. :)
Lien ChuApril 28, 2017The coffee cake was to die for - by far the best I've ever had. Perfect to enjoy with black coffee while basking in the warm sun in their outdoor seating area. Arrive early to avoid long queues.
Dave HoffmanOctober 2, 2021This is a world-class Bakery part of Thomas Keller’s esteemed class of restaurants. Best almond croissant ever! And the rest of the selection is stellar! This should be on any foodies bucket list!
Wilson Favre-DelerueAugust 14, 2016If spending 1h+ queueing for croissants or baguette, however good they might be, is your thing, go right ahead and line up!
Ashley RoseNovember 6, 2017Pastry game is ON POINT. can’t leave without a classic croissant, apple pastry of some sort and a coffee.
- Jess TaiNovember 7, 2017I always stop in and decide what to buy after 😅. TKO is my favorite treat because it's not too sweet, and the chocolate bouchon is like the best brownie you've ever had!
TalyaSeptember 25, 2019Worth the hype. Of course there’s a line, but it moves quickly. Don’t miss out on the savory options! Loved the Brie LT.
Andrew LamDecember 4, 2013Come for the indulgent pastries, delicate Viennoiserie, and perfect macarons in seasonal flavors (my faves are PB&J, espresso, and lemon), but expect a line out the door at all hours of the day.
katie cJanuary 26, 2017pain au chocolate and to-go macarons for good measure. the patio has plenty of seating and heaters to fight the early morning chill.
Megan OutlyMarch 8, 2013The brioche can be a little stale at the end of the day, but that's my only complaint! Be sure to try the "oh no you didn't" chocolate covered macarons and the "oh-ohs" which is their take on a ho-ho.- Pam McCoyApril 7, 2015Yes, it is worth the wait! It is about the experience of waiting in line as much as it is about the pastries.
Andrew LambNovember 19, 2013Seriously had the best donut in my life here... soft and moist, filled with a maple walnut custard. It just melts in your mouth... I'm drooling just thinking about it.
JoshJanuary 21, 2017Everything tasted amazing! Had the cream cheese danish, eclair, and lemon tart, all were incredible. Worth the wait in line and the price.
PinaLNovember 17, 2018Delicious pasteries, cookies, bread, coffee. If you are visiting Bottega then you may want to stop by Bouchon. The weekend queue is crazy!
The first bite of any of the pastries will make the line worth the wait. My favorite: dulce de leche macaron
Christopher BowmanMay 14, 2016The prices are spending, but the baked goods are out of this world! We always load up on an assortment of whatever they have out
minnie mDecember 30, 2014Don't get the macarons, they're way too big and sweet. Instead get their cookies, doughnuts, and savory food like their sandwiches. Love their ham and cheese baguette.
June ParkAugust 19, 2017Choose from pastries. Do not try baguette or meal-type bread. Almond croissant is a must try
Sam SpadeMay 12, 2013Close your eyes and start pointing. Pay for whatever you pointed at. Then enjoy your brilliant choices on the patio
John AmschlerMay 14, 2015If you have any affinity toward Salted Caramel, get the large Salted Caramel Macaron... Everything else was phe-nom-in-al too!
Alex GonzalezAugust 7, 2014The chocolate chip cookies are famous around the world. The best surprise were the "Ohnoyoudidnt" cookies: Chocolate-covered macarons
BommyAugust 8, 2018Best pistachio macaron and pretty big in size. Eat it slightly chilled so the filling doesn't melt.
Highly recommend the almond croissant and cherry chocolate chip scone (and macarons if you're into them)
Vi TranFebruary 19, 2016The wait is incredibly long, but the macarons were not that badly priced - consistent in price with other bakeries. Amazing baguette too!
Brian ButlerAugust 14, 2013The chocolate almond croissant is life changing! The macarons are amazing as well and are gluten free for the gf people!
Chloe CondonFebruary 19, 2016The line moves fast- promise! Salted caramel coffee drinks are so delicious here.
jiresellOctober 4, 2016Prepare for a bit of a line, but well worth it. Croissants and seasonal donuts are great!
Jon B.December 27, 2023Obviously their croissants and baguettes were fire, but my favorite was their cheese roll. So good!
Chantelle BallesterosFebruary 24, 2013Oh my God!!! You have to try the Oh Oh's!!! Chocolate Heaven!!!
J A KasilagJuly 5, 2012Love the macaroons and the baguettes... Friendly staff as well. Well worth the hour drive.
Tara TrilopsMay 17, 2012Stop in for a Pistachio macaron. But don't miss the selection of sandwiches, great for your picnic lunch at one of the wineries.
The PBC's are a solid staple and the chocolate almond croissant is a heavenly breakfast
Sabina B.April 14, 2014Everything here is to die for. Literally. But if you leave here without monkey bread or a pistachio macaroon, you should be arrested.
Cynthia DrescherNovember 18, 2012PUMPKIN MACARON, dudes. Also, came at 6pm on a Saturday and there was only a 2-minute wait & they still had great stuff.
Donna NoviMay 21, 2012Great pastries for the morning after, excellent coffee. Fun to take home a little piece of Bouchon or a foie gras biscuit for Fido.
Come here and try the quiche! It has a creamy, velvety texture, like a custard!Upvoted Mar 19
7x7 MagazineOctober 24, 2012Start your morning with some fresh baked bread and coffee from Thomas Keller’s Bouchon Bakery or order champagne and oysters from the bar at Bouchon Restaurant. Read more
Visit Napa ValleyOctober 21, 2011If there is one thing that you "should not miss" it's a trip to Bouchon Bakery! Prepare to be delighted by an amazing selection of pastries and breads.
Jordan SimAugust 22, 2015The almond croissant is incredibly layered, buttery and has some weight behind it!
Pete TittlMay 5, 2013The cream cheese Danish is amazing! Had a blueberry filling. The nutter butter cookie is memorable, too.
Rohit JDecember 10, 2011Thomas Keller's exquisite bakery selection. Don't let the long lines scare you. The almond croissants and muffins are worth the wait!
I love the almond croissant, but if you are searching for dessert pastries try the macaroons. Delightful!
Karen T.March 24, 2014Beware of the birds if you plan on taking advantage of their outdoor seating. There are a lot of them and they are not afraid of humans.
