Crema's Take

Bread & Chocolate is a beloved Saint Paul spot that nails the balance between cozy neighborhood café and lively community gathering place, where the real stars are their exceptional pastries—particularly buttery, flaky croissants and cinnamon rolls that keep people coming back. The espresso-forward coffee program pairs beautifully with their full breakfast and lunch menu, making it equally welcoming whether you're settling in for a slow morning with a cappuccino or grabbing a breakfast sandwich between meetings. Fair warning: it gets wonderfully bustling during peak hours, but that energy is part of what makes this place feel so genuinely loved by its regulars and families.

Good Morning! I had the opportunity to experience Bread and Chocolate today with a co worker. This shop is a vibe! It's cozy, yet spacious. Welcoming, and smells great walking in. The staff we met today was just so energetic and accommodating, I mean she treated us like she invited us there. I didn't catch her name, but she looks to be bi-racial with long brown curly hair, glasses with the biggest smile ever, and a septum piercing. I enjoyed her energy as much as the amazing chocolate croissant and over all feel in the place. The price for everything was affordable I think, we got 3 croissants(and they are not small at all), and a large latte for my co worker for 20 bucks(your Starbucks could neva ok). I shall return on a quiet Sunday like today soon! Check them out!

Came for coffee and pastries. Their pastries are always top notch. I'm a huge fan of their cinnamon rolls and their ham and cheese croissants. However, this place is LOUD when it's busy- so loud that it's hard to talk to the people you're with. So consider taking your food to-go if you're hoping to chat.

Very delicious cinnamon pecan roll and chocolate croissant. I really enjoyed their Pumpkin Spice latte too! Worth a try if you’re in the mood for breakfast croissants and coffee. Very polite and informative staff. Wide open space if you want to bring family or friends. We were not a fan of the scones or cream cheese raspberry croissant due to odd textures.

I ordered an apricot croissant, caramel pecan bun, and a cappuccino. My son had a GF scone, which he enjoyed very much. My croissant was outstanding in every way, buttery, flaky perfection.

A cute and busy cafe. The croissants are delicious, if I could recommend all of them, I would. A must try if you go in. They also have sandwiches (both breakfast and lunch) and salads. The coffee is very sweet, maybe ask for less than the normal amount of syrup flavoring.
