Fantastic crossaints
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

07/07/2007 Posted by franciscomontalvo

The food is fantastic. My personal favorites are almond schneckens, strawberry crossaints and ham/cheese crossaints. Also noteworthy are the checkered shortbread cookies. I also found their coffee beverages to be very good. Their standard coffee is above average and their espresso drinks are fantastic - I recommend the capuccino. Parking can be a challenge at certain times but there is enough residential parking in Ballard that you can get within 200 yards at any time.

Pros: Superb quality pastries for $2-$4 each

Cons: Small indoor seating area

Know Before You Go

Watch the chefs shaping pastry behind the display counter--but you might want to avert your eyes from the stacks of butter that lie beside them.
