    Believe the comments about the croissants - had a ham and cheese this morning that rocked my world. So flakey and buttery. Latte was tops - wishing I had gotten 2. Friendly, authentic hipster crowd.

    I believe that chocolate chip cookies should absolutely not contain nuts, and Proof gets that. Warm, soft, salty, and rich in chocolate, theirs is a winner.

    This bakery is easy on the eyes, crisp and modern, and serves up complex tasting drip from local roaster Handsome Coffee alongside an array of baked goods, all made in house. Read more

    All of their croissants are good, and the plain croissants are a can’t miss! Best I’ve had outside of France.

    Nice little shop to grab a great pastry and some decent coffee. Small, so don't plan to hang out, and they close at 4pm so get in in the morning!

    Favorite spot to grab coffee and a snack in Atwater Village. Love the cookies and little baguette sandwiches (usually go the beets, goat cheese and arugula one).

    Be sure to grab a table quick and not hog one to yourself! The seating is limited but the coffee and bakery items are top shelf.

    At noon, they start serving amazing mini baguette sandwiches. They offer vegan/vegetarian options. If you're coming in the morning, they have great croissants and pour-over Handsome coffee.

    There's an off-menu drink called "the Winston." it consists of 4 shots of espresso, whole milk and agave nectar, served over ice. It tastes like a Vietnamese coffee. Which is to say, delicious.

    The lunch menu here is delicious. I'd recommend taking your food to go though. The small dining room gets crowded quickly.

    The croissant is Devine but the savoury Zataar Croissant after is the highlight.

    Ham & Cheese Croissant is great. Get a regular croissant on the side because you'll want more.

    Quiche are so good but they sell out before noon. Not to worry though, they have great sandwiches on crusty french baguettes.

    A chocolate croissant goes perfectly with an @cogcofee Cortado. To really give yourself a treat ask for half & half in your Cortado.
