Honore Patisserie and Espresso
8056 Lake City Way NE, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“Honore Patisserie and Espresso is a French bakery-focused café where Chef Honore's mastery of traditional techniques shines through in their two celebrated specialties: croissants and brioche that justify their limited three-day-a-week schedule. The espresso is solid and approachable, but here the real draw is the pastry case—think ham and gruyere croissants and delicate berry tarts that have locals lining up minutes after opening, paired with genuinely friendly baristas who keep service moving despite the crowds.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu.

I'm generally a bit generous with 5-star reviews, but Bakery Honoré genuinely deserves it. It is a testament to the quality of their pastries that they are only open three days a week, for 7 hours a day. The pastries are immaculate, and the croissants are the best I've found in…
Came here about minutes after opening on a Sunday and was third in line, and soon there was a dedicated line. Very much enjoyed the ham gruyere croissant and the berry tart. The bread pudding was good too, loved that it wasn't too sweet and had a lovely texture but personally…
