Cafe Parisien

This cafe has basically become my second home/office. 😂🥰 I’m here almost every day for my large latte and the best croissants in town. 🥐☕️The chocolate croissant is my forever favorite, but the almond croissant has also been addictive lately. Their cakes, cookies, sandwiches, and spinach quiche are all consistently yummy 🤗😋 I ordered a coffee Génoise cake for my birthday party, and it was honestly the best cake I’ve ever had~~🥳🎂Everything is homemade, thoughtfully balanced, and never overly sweet, which I love!!!❤️❤️ Hocin and Ahce, the twin brothers who run the place, are funny, warm, humble, and hardworking. They’re always improving something, always welcoming, and they treat every customer with genuine kindness. This is the kind of cafe that makes a neighborhood feel like home, and I’m grateful to have it just around the corner. 💕☺️🍀

We tried a basic caramel iced coffee and it was good. Staff was friendly and fast. Pastries looked yummy but we didn’t try anything since we had another place in mind. Will definitely go back to try some sweets. Street parking is hard to find in general in Berkeley. We went during the week and it wasn’t busy at all and found parking in a nearby lot across the street.

love this place! great pastries great variety all handmade fresh, and it’s a family business the staff are really friendly and devoted ! cozy atmosphere and the facilities are all good. Recommend a lot to go

The twins, Usen(I apologize for spelling your name incorrectly) and Ace were a delight! Oakland has many treasures but Café Parisien was the highlight of my food experience. There were many options, all made beautifully and with love. We had the hazelnut croissant, croque monsieur, brownie, orange bread, raspberry danish, café noisette, and a London fog. I have never been so satisfied by pastries and a delicious baked sandwich before! I highly recommend this café to locals and tourists. Thank you! I hope to see you soon. Love from AZ 🤗🥳

A true French treasure in the heart of Berkeley. The pastries are exceptional—light, buttery, and perfectly crafted, rivaling those found in Paris. The café’s warm atmosphere and attentive staff make each visit a delightful experience. Whether for a morning croissant and coffee or an afternoon treat, this shop consistently delivers excellence. An absolute must-try for pastry lovers. Which I would like to call it “little PARIS 🇫🇷 in Berkeley”
