Long line but at least it’s inside so you don’t need to wait in the cold. Took about 20mins to get to the front so not bad. The cookie shot is made to order so takes a few minutes to prepare. They pour the shot in front of you which is fun. Then you carry it to the back where there’s lots of seating.
The cronut flavor of this month is Peach & Lychee. It’s incredibly sweet so I actually didn’t like it that much, but I think I’d like other less sweet and fruity/jammy flavors, because the flaky pastry itself was great. If was just the jam that was too sweet.
My favorite was the DKA. It was my first time having a kouign-aman and that was incredible. Essentially a caramelized croissant.
The cookie shot was good but not great. The milk was nice with strong vanilla flavor but the cookie itself had a bit of an off flavor than you’d expect for a cookie, perhaps some additional ingredient to help it’s keep it’s form. More a cool concept than the best flavor.
Overall I applaud the bakery for it’s creativity and would try a different flavor of cronut some other time if the line was short, and maybe try their s’mores and macarons next time!

I cannot even begin to express my disappointment… I used to go to the one at Grove in Beverly Hills, so stopping by this one used to be my travel plans for long time ever since the one at grove closed (due to covid). I finally got here, and sigh… i got peach lychee cronut and DKA. Honestly, both were terrible. Maybe my expectation was too high? It just didn’t match up to the pastries I’ve had at Beverly branch. Having only one cronut flavor was sad… and the filling was too sweet. I did not like it. Both cronut and DKA layers tasted dry and almost stale. I almost wanted to believe maybe I got an old one from their storage by mistake… I flew all the way from Cali, and left extremely disappointed. I hope it used to be better.

I tried the January Cronut flavor which was hojicha Okinawa black sugar. It’s supposed to be a croissant–doughnut hybrid, and while the flavor was good, the texture didn’t quite match the expectation. It was actually pretty hard, and didn’t feel like either a croissant or a doughnut in texture. If you told me this was just a random pastry, I’d say it’s a good pastry — but as a “croissant doughnut,” it didn’t really deliver that signature experience.
They usually have long lines, but there are a few seating areas and a cute indoor patio in the back which is nice if you want to sit and enjoy your pastry. I’d come back if I’m in the area, but overall it didn’t feel like anything too crazy or must-have.

This is the ultimate destination for high-end luxury pastries. I never knew pastries could be this good. My favorites are the cronuts and the cookie shots – and the Frozen S’more is one of the greatest things on the planet. The items in the pastry case change on a rotational basis and there’s always new things to try. They know how to keep the menu interesting and creative.
The taste and texture is always amazing – and it’s always fresh. The back seating area has great coffee shop vibes, looking onto more seating outdoors with vines growing up an overhead trellis. Jerry Seinfeld was here to film an episode of “Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee” with Tina Fey.

I love this bakery. I was so sad he closed the Los Angeles location. My favorite is the chocolate coconut croissant however I love the cronuts and trying the different flavors. I have discovered my new favorite cronut….It is the February 2026 flavor White Peach and Lychee!! Best cronut of all!!!

What a wonderful place! It does get a lot of traffic so you way have to wait outside- but in the winter they do offer hand warmers while you are out there! And the sample of their signature pastry the DKA, which is basically a caramelized croissant, was absolutely divine. Their cronut flavor of the month was brownie batter and Colombian coffee – it was delicious and completely worth the wait. We also got their holiday special mini Bûche de Noël in the triple chocolate and sticky toffee pudding flavors to go.

I went here with my husband because I saw the video on this place making cronuts. I loved the flavor of the month for the cronut. My husband got the DKA which he absolutely loved but my daughter ate most of it and my daughter got the cookie shot. she didn’t care for the cookie shot, but I think it’s because she’s used to a certain type of milk. The cookie was good, but if you left the milk in too long, the cookie became very soft. It is a hard cookie so if you’re not into crunchy cookies, I wouldn’t get it.

How do you not like this place!!
Whatever I order, they taste great!
Finally decide to come in early and try out the cronut, the flavor is brownie batter & coffee.
It’s pretty good, but so big! I was so full after finishing it by myself, I wish it could be smaller.
But great vibe, friendly staffs, nice sitting area too.

Visiting was such a joyful experience. I loved the pumpkin cronut and I do not like pumpkin- it’s that good! I also had avo toast which was a work of art and tasted amazing. Eating in flower garden was amazing. But the thing that really stood out was the service. The two men behind the counter were so friendly, patient and helpful- yes in NYC! You could tell they really enjoy what they do. This is a must visit in Soho.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming.
The cake was a bit too sweet for my preference and lacked some depth of flavor. I also didn’t taste much matcha. The macarons were fairly standard
