Review Summary

Comptoir Krem & Kanel earns wide praise for its brioches, with favorites like pistachio, lotus, classic and speculoos, noted for a perfectly moist, fluffy texture and a balanced sweetness that keeps it from being too sweet. The brioche is described as handmade each morning and decadently addictive, a must try for pastry lovers. The accompanying drinks and desserts receive praise too, including a selection of artisanal slushes such as mango, dragon fruit and matcha, as well as ice cream with mango and passion fruit that tastes incredibly fresh. Service is generally friendly and helpful, though a few reviews mention moments of less attentive staff or a fly near the pastries and occasional stock shortages on busy days. Prices are described as a little steep by some, but the quality and the versatility for dessert, brunch, or a take-home treat are cited as worth it. Overall the spot is seen as a charming, artisanal bakery cafe on the north shore with many planning to return to try more flavors.View restaurant profile
