Everything Amazing and Wonderful - Edit
What an amazing french bakery! I loved everything here and wish I lived closer so I could try it all. I came two days in a row and tried so many wonderful items. The egg sandwich was the perfect brunch bite. The pastries were fresh and delightful. The cold brew was heavenly. I haven’t had tiramisu in a long time but their tiramisu was paradise in a cup. It was so good it was hard to believe it was vegan. The decor and seating are cute and the staff warm and friendly. If you’re in the area, this is a must visit!

ID-eclair - Edit
It’s a cute and spacious patisserie, but we were just underwhelmed with the items we got. Everything we ordered seemed dry and on the stale side. It’s rare for me to throw away pastries, as I treat myself to these only while traveling, but we ended up binning everything we got, which was unfortunate. Maybe we went on a day things weren’t as fresh. Or maybe we have different expectations since we live in Europe, where these types of pastries are seemingly perfected. Nevertheless, this place has a lot of potential.

A French Pastry Dream in Pasadena 🥐 - Edit
We tried the croissants, macarons, and one of the éclairs — all absolutely delicious. Also picked up some jam to take home. Great vibe, amazing service. If you're in Pasadena, don't sleep on this place!

OMg! 🤩 - Edit
Delicious! Amazing! I had their daily specials of vegan “salami” sandwich and mushroom soup! I got a ton of their eclair’s, pastries and fresh baked sliced loaf to go and a latte. My new favorite place! Staff said they are also open for dinner until 8pm (Tuesdays til 3pm, closed Monday) too and have live music Saturday nights affiliated with the cave vegan wine bar (they share a space)

Vegan French Pastries 🇫🇷🥐 - Edit
This place is so fun—the staff fully commits to the French theme, which I absolutely loved. From the moment you walk in, the vibe feels very French and charming. They have an impressive variety of pastries, and it was genuinely hard to decide because everything looked amazing.
Read moreWe tried a chai latte and a French hot chocolate, both of which were absolutely delicious and comforting. We also shared a few different pastries, and my favorite by far was the jalapeño cheese croissant—savory, flavorful, and perfectly flaky.
They’re also open very early in the morning, which makes this a great breakfast spot when most other places are still closed. If you’re in the area and love vegan pastries with a classic French twist, I would definitely recommend stopping by.

Beautiful and Delicious Pastries - Edit
ID-Eclair is a plant-based French bakery in Pasadena with insanely good pastries. They also have savory items like quiche. Everything was so beautiful and creative. I hope this place does well because it is so special.

Impressive Variety and Quality! - Edit
The blueberry danish was heavenly and very generous in portion.
Read moreThe croissant, after air frying it, was amazing: flaky fluffy goodness.
The ham and cheese croissant was disappointing; it had a strange pink blob that looked to be a strawberry cream but tasted of ham and the cheese was just a few melted sprinkles of cheese on top. The chocolate croissant could've had more chocolate inside.
The macaroon had the taste and texture of a non-vegan macaroon. The chocolate one was so good.
The Dubai bite was disappointing as well. It didn't taste as good as it looked. I didn't bother finishing it.
I'd return to try the eclair, other sweets, and savory dishes.

didn't like - Edit
I'm a little bit shocked that this place wasn't a better experience for us. They certainly have a large selection of very impressive-looking pastries. Tried an eclair and a couple croissants. The eclair had a cold temperature and I didn't like the flavors much. The croissants were underwhelming. Weird! I'd go back and try other things, but they are a little out of the way for us.

Everything here is scrumptious - Edit
Vegan French-style patisserie with so many delicious choices. My favorite savory items were the mushroom danish and ham and cheese croissant. For a sweet treat, I adore the Paris Brest, Napoleon, and fruit tarts. I hope one day I can try everything.

This place is superb! And I do not hand out high level complements frivolously. Though I’ve only tried the French Breast eclair, the ambiance and service was excellent. Let’s make this place successful for many years to come!
