Sweet Lily Bakery provided me with quality service, breakfast, and coffee this morning. The interior of the bakery is clean, and I thoroughly enjoyed the Nutella beignet alongside the veggie omelet with a side salad/potatoes. The vanilla latte was good, too. Thank you SLB team!

Stopped by for a coffee and croissant. I love that the croissant had a light sweetness to it. Reminds me of croissants in Europe. Looking at the what people ordered the salad and sandwiches looked great. Would love to go back for lunch

Such a great little spot! Not only are the pastries incredible, but we also had the English breakfast and it was perfection. We even got a croissant and a baguette to take back home with us. An extra bonus was the sweet little toddler running around and making sure we all enjoyed are food. :) I cannot recommend this plane enough!

The baked goods looked good and the menu offered nice options. So, we ended up ordering 3 different food items and pastries. Their croissants were delicious and the raspberry filled ones have LOTS of jam (be prepared for it to go everywhere). The food was well seasoned. My 10 yo ordered the English breakfast and the beans were some of the tastiest we have ever had. And they adjusted the drink for her by making it an iced hot chocolate. The rest of our food was wonderful also. This place is great.

I went here on a rainy Sunday afternoon with my family. Didn't realize it was closer to closing time but there were still some fresh desserts left. We ordered a chocolate eclair, opera cake, chocolate twist, almond croissant and a vanilla late and double espresso. The service was great too. Everything tasted so good! I was actually pleasantly surprised! I thought the eclair would have custard inside but it had Nutella but of course my son didn't mind. I would say hands down try the almond croissant and a coffee there. Of course next time I'll have to try their breakfast as I didn't know they also offer breakfast too. We ate our desserts faster than I can take pics so I took some pics of the place for now.

I stopped here for breakfast before going to Universal Studios Hollywood as it's located so close. I really enjoyed the food and atmosphere! This is a cute little French cafe. The decor was very thoughtful with French flags and cozy seats. I wish it was night time as it looked like they have lovely fairy lights for the evenings. The person at the register was friendly and our food was fresh made and probably took about 20 minutes to arrive. I ordered the alpine tartine without bacon and it was DIVINE. I really enjoyed it and the mix of Brie, sour cream, egg, potatoes, and bread. I did add some hot sauce and pepper but it was very good. I appreciate the side salad to balance out the heaviness. I did not have space for their pastries but they looked amazing. I will say the one major downside is that they did not have espresso or specialty drinks when I visited which I found disappointing. I got a canned cold coffee which was okay. I would've loved a latte or cappuccino to pair with my breakfast.
