Review Summary

Reviews describe Alice & Theo as a destination for standout cream puffs and inventive flavours, with passion fruit, chocolate, pistachio, saffron, and matcha fillings regularly praised, and the ice cream often noted as fresh and well balanced; the choux pastry and puff pastry are frequently described as delicious and generously sized, though a few notes mention the pastry could be crisper or not too sweet and the cone tasting a bit stale. The service is consistently warm and friendly, with staff offering tastings and clear guidance. Ambience and décor receive mixed comments, with some calling it simple or quirky and others saying it feels like a work in progress, and hours can be unpredictable. Prices are sometimes described as a bit high for the portions, but the overall quality and originality of flavours are seen as worth it. Taken together, Alice & Theo is regarded as a top dessert spot in the neighborhood, known for life changing cream puffs and a memorable, if sometimes idiosyncratic, experience.

Alice & Theo makes, without a doubt, the best cream puffs in the world. If I were on my deathbed & could only have one last bite of food, I'd probably choose one of their pastries-assuming, of course, they'd actually be open. Which brings me to my main issue: this place operates on a schedule that seems to have been determined by throwing darts at a calendar while blindfolded. One day they close at 6 PM, the next at 9 PM. It's like playing a high-stakes game of'Will They Be Open?' every time you crave something sweet.

The interior is also… a choice. I can only assume they ran out of budget after perfecting their recipes because the decor has the charm of a forgotten waiting room at the dentist. It's giving'we just moved in' energy, except they've been open for a while. But hey, who needs ambiance when the food is this good?

& then there's their Instagram. If you've ever wondered what bad marketing looks like, look no further. Their posts have the chaotic energy of millennials on crack, mixed with a deep misunderstanding of what actually makes people want to buy pastries. It's not quirky-it's borderline anti-advertising. The cream puffs sell themselves, but this social media strategy is actively working against them.

So yes, their cream puffs are life-changing, & I will continue to put myself through the emotional rollercoaster of their random hours just to get one. But Alice & Theo, I beg you-hire an interior designer, commit to some normal hours, & for the love of all things holy, get a marketing team. You deserve to thrive, & so do your confused but devoted customers. ❤?

I recently visited this charming cafe, & I must say, their chouquettes are nothing short of mind-blowing. The perfect balance of crispiness & sweetness in each bite left me utterly delighted. A must-visit for any chouquette enthusiast!

My absolute favourite place to come for sweets. The cream puffs are so good! On top of their usual menu, they're always experimenting with new flavours, & they're all a delight every time! Their rose sorbet is one of my favourite summer snacks as well. Everything I try here is delicious & not super sweet. I have a very low tolerance for sweetness, but most of their flavours are so nicely balanced that it works perfectly for me. Lastly, their staff is super friendly & kind. I'm always excited to go back!

A lovely pastry with a crisp exterior & moist center filled with varying flavour of excellent, luscious cream that is just the right amount of sweet : not too much, but still satisfying. A perfect cream to pastry ratio.
Very nice friendly, helpful & patient service (we had them cut every puff in half 😅)

We will have to return to try their ice cream & the matcha cream puff we missed out on!
