CroBean Cafe & Bakery

This is the kind of bakery you step foot into and you just know everything is going to be delicious. That being said I’ve ordered several things off their menu and I was right; every crumb was eaten. They have a variety of freshly made croissants, tarts, bagels that are bigger than my hand! Amongst my favorites are the triple layered chocolate mousse cup and the lavender macaroons, the taste is not too light nor over powering. This place is a hidden gem and the customer service was absolutely fantastic it felt like stepping into an old friend’s kitchen.

We took a drive to Alpine, CA and found this place. I had an iced tea and an apple turnover. The pastry was flakey and the apple were amazing. Probably the best apple turnover I've ever had.

The service is horrible here, I took my family here at 12:20pm on a Friday, NOBODY was at the front counter, there was a line 6 people deep, I yelled "hello?" for some service and was completely ignored. Waited 10m with nobody coming to front and just left. To top this off this was the 3RD time Ive visited this place, the first two times they were closed for vacation. Two vacations in a 3 week period and every time the store gets closed. Hire some help to staff your store please cause your 1 man operation does not work.

I stopped in today and ordered a few pastries. Wonderful unique selection of pastries. I had a tomato mozzarella croissant, a s’mores croissant, and a raspberry oat bar. The tomato mozzarella pastry seemed raw, it tasted and had the texture of underbaked dough. On a positive note, the tomatoes were very fresh. The s’mores croissant was a little better - it was fully baked, but still had a strange doughy flavor. It did not have any butteriness. The raspberry oat bar similarly did not have a buttery flavor. It was not bad, but it was bland and dry. The pastries were around 7$ each so they were a bit expensive. The service was fast and friendly, and the ambiance was very nice inside. I would like to try this out again, I think I may have came by at the wrong time of day, since it was late mo

They need a Air fryer 😔. Quiche->Not pleased about being heated in The microwave. It was good just would have done it justice being warmed up in a different way. Had mushy crust & soggy couldn't tell if it was all cheese or had crust at all. Can't justify the cost either 😕 Don't care to return sadly to admit
