O'Brien's Boulangerie

Stopped by for brunch with a friend. The menu is just big enough to not be overwhelmed while also offering a great variety of sweet and savory items. We got a pistachio croissant, mango cheese danish, almond croissant, and jalapeño turkey croissants. No complaints regarding the pastries as they were flakey, fresh, and not too sweet! We also got the breakfast croissant which was perfect to share. The sandwich itself was yummy though a tad heavy from the garlic aioli (I would get it on the side next time). We also got a hot chai latte and a hot rose chai latte since we heard the chai was made in-house. I would not recommend either of these drinks as they mostly just tasted like milk. Service is notable and wonderful. Seating area upstairs has a nice and welcoming atmosphere.

Not sure why ratings are high, i give this spot 1.5 stars. Presentation is good as proof by the pics, but food is just OK. Its way too expensive for just OK. Some of the food items were very good like the corned beef hash & eggs and the avocado trio. My biggest complaint is that this is a bakery and their baked goods were horrible. The pecan sticky bun was so dry, kind of hard, & even after warming it, none of us cared for it. French toast might as well been from ihop. The matcha cake was was super dry and didn't taste like matcha, simply green cake. All of the food items were very bland except for the corned beef hash. Everyone had to salt their food or/and add hot sauce to give it flavor. My kid said the matcha latte tasted like milk with sugar, no matcha taste at all. Wife liked the Hon

@obriensbakerysd has such a cozy vibe that perfectly matches the holiday season. The food was delicious—I loved my avocado toast, and the idea of offering three different kinds of toast is such a fun touch. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the Poway area!

Come here often with my daughter for lunch and dessert. I recommend the Ceasars salad, the BLT and all the dessert. The bread are really if you want a specific bread it suggest calling ahead to make sure its there or order the day before. I sometimes get their challah bread which isn't one of the loaf they have every day so I call ahead so they can have it made for me when I pick. This time we got the caramel cheese cake and chocolate brownie.

Perfect spot for breakfast or brunch, whether you’re coming alone or with friends. The menu offers plenty of creative dishes that will keep you delighted, all enjoyed in a spacious and beautifully decorated setting. The selection of baked goods and desserts is endless—tempting treats that are almost impossible to name. Morning cocktails, tasting flights, specialty coffee, and a full range of beverages make the experience even more complete. On the second floor, where the main dining area is located, you can watch the team bake their signature breads. There’s ample parking, and the outdoor dining area with tents creates a relaxing atmosphere for sunny days. It’s also a great place for remote workers or digital nomads: plenty of comfortable tables by the windows, perfect for working withou
