Unfortunately now that Simone’s is more popular it seems to have issues with consistency. I didn’t want to post this update but after multiple disappointing pastries I need to knock a star.
– Chocolate eclair: almost inedible. It tasted so overbaked; crunchy and not in a good way, almost stale tasting, and there was barely any filling. Actually one of the worst eclairs I’ve had in my life, which at $8 I was kind of angry about, especially since eclairs are one of my favourite pastries ever. 0/10 would not recommend.
– Kouign Amann: still one of my favourite pastries but the difference from one to the next can be stark. See photos – both are plain Kouign Amann, and yet one is significantly smaller and misshapen compared the other, and the larger one is veering on burnt at the edges.
– Miso mushroom danish: I have had some that tasted like raw dough in the middle and made me feel a bit ill after eating. I considered reaching out but I hadn’t had issues with Simone’s pastries at that point and wanted to just support her, so ended up not saying anything. Thankfully recent danishes seem to have been baked well (though I also stopped purchasing them as frequently), but all these issues add up so I can no longer stand behind my previous rave review.
Last month I also found a hair tightly wrapped around my Blueberry Earl grey Kouign Amann. I reached out and Simone was incredibly apologetic and offered to refund the pastry or give me another one for free, and said she’d be tightening measures to ensure it doesn’t happen again. It’s not a bad remedy, but still it was gross to experience.
9 times out of 10 the pastries are great. But for the price you’d really want 10/10 perfection every time. I’m thrilled this place is getting more media attention and increasing in popularity, but I do hope they can improve in terms of consistency.

I just need to put a warning out there for anyone who’s thinking of trying one of Simone’s pastries: beware. You may (will) develop an addiction to her mouthwatering creations that may (will) cause both your wallet and waistline to suffer.
Some of the pastries to be most wary of include but are not limited to:
– Earl Grey blueberry Kouign Amann
– Almond croissant
– Pistachio croissant
– Chocolate orange malasada.
Is it 1000% worth it? Yes. Not to mention the children’s play area is absolutely wonderful and perfect for parents to bring their children. In case you have mentally steeled yourself to venture over despite these warnings, I suppose we’ll see each other soon. Nice to meet you in advance!
* pistachio croissant – good but definitely overpriced at $11
* shishito mango corn danish – good and more reasonably priced at $9
* blueberry earl grey kouign amann – unfortunately forgettable. Maybe try to perfect your basic/plain kouign amann first before being creative with flavors
Overall, good enough to try but not for a repeat visit.
Wonderful atmosphere, even better pastries!
I had the Kuoign Aman, of which I’m a modest connoisseur, and it was beyonderful. Crispy, sugary, and a special bottom that I can only describe as pecan pie without the pecans.
Also had a Danish. Must be the most buttery pastry I’ve ever had.
Happiness.
The service was probably the best thing, but still sub-par. There were only three people in line, but it took forever for them to complete an order.
The atmosphere was dark and dingy. Definitely not warm and welcoming. I didn’t feel like hanging out there.
Lasty the prices are outrageous for the quality of these pastries! I’ve had much better Viennoiseries for a lot less many other places.
If you want a really fabulous croissant that is crispy on the outside, light and flaky on the inside for less, try Maison Benoit in Danville.
I’ve been to Paris and the croissants are just as good, if not better. And we had this ricotta egg chili danish – this was one of the tastiest things I’ve ever eaten anywhere. The textures and balance of flavors! That could win a competition alone. Can’t wait to go back!
