Babette Bakery

This bakery has a beautiful presentation of their pastries, and they're freshly made and delicious. They also have a lunch menu, with pasta, sandwiches, and other eatables. They also make cakes for special occasions. We tried about 6 different sweets, and they were all really good, but their little lemon 🍋 cookies/macaroons are awesome, and OMG their strawberry🍓 and cream croissants are to die for. I'll add some pics next time I update this post. 😋 🎂🍰 🥐🥯🥧🧁🥚🍓🥝🍌☕🥖🌰🥥🫐🍍🍋😍🩷

Stopped in during my morning commute looking for a breakfast pastry and a coffee and settled on the Apple Croissant and the brewed Hazelnut Coffee. Both were fantastic. The Croissant was very flavorful and had just the right amount of apple to give flavor and not take the pastry over. The Hazelnut coffee was perfect for me. Great balance and flavor. Every time I commute through route, I'm swinging in for a coffee and pastry. Staff was fantastic as well. So welcoming!

The Bbq chicken sandwich hit the spot. Theres a few sandwich options you can order from along with soups. This place carries so many pastries. From other reviews and customers I came across, macaroons are their #1 seller. I'll be coming back to try a few pastries.

The service girls were great. They were patient and knowledgeable of everything they had in stock.

Theres a few tables inside the restaurant were you can sit and enjoy your food.

Forgot to mention this is a an empty shopping center. The center looks abandoned. It's right next to smart and final.

I came here a while ago and liked it, but did not go back after. When a guest brought me a delicious Mango Mouse Cake I was wondering why… The base of the Mango Mouse Cake is of juicy, soft sponge cake featuring a crunchy, caramelized surrounding. The mouse is very light and no too sweet, having just the right amount of mango taste. The goodness is topped with a juicy peach and strawberry. So yummy that my new year’s resolution is to come back more often.

I was a first time customer this morning. Excellent covid protocol, nice display cabinets and a good selection of bread and pastries. The staff was kind and welcoming. We just had the sliced sourdough loaf for lunch and it was awesome. The Australians would call this bakery 'good value', which means the quality for the price you pay is soooooo worth while. Now I know why there was a line to enter. My new ''go to" bakery!!!

It was fun riding my bike with baguettes sticking out of my backpack, ...reminiscing about France.

Small place with a decent menu and assortment of pastries. Fairly priced, easy lot parking, and maybe 8 or so tables for 4. Still need to go back to try other things. Order in the middle.

Small fruit tart was good as was the chicken salad. Under $8 total, picked out the raisins from the salad because raisins are just gross. Come give them a visit.

Came here today on a whim to get some treats for my fiancés birthday. I was not disappointed!!! They have such a wide array of items, dishes, and breads. The cakes I got were the bread pudding, tres leches, mango custard (?), and cheesecake. All were excellent!!! And very fair prices, too. All 4 cakes came out to $15.

This is a hidden gem in Long beach. The bread is very fresh and will harden fast, which means it has no additives. The croissant and the pain au chocolat are buttery and flacky and took me back to Paris.
They also serve breakfast items such as quiches and have a nice seating area for about 20-25 person.
Definitely a place to try

Great tuna sandwich and the little Portuguese custard tarts were fantastic!!

If your in long beach and don't know this place you must be new. Great bakery with friendly service and amazing baked goods.

Great place to buy all kind of pastry, cakes and sandwiches. Very tasty and delicious items.

There's usually a little bit of a line there to get service, but it moves fast. Very nice staff and their bakery goods are absolutely top-notch.

Me and my uncle go to this bakery to get some apple turnovers in the morning before going to the swap meet they already know my uncle I have just been in there a couple of times but anyway the experience there always good the weight for getting served is a little long but it's okay no problem with that it's always worth it to get what getting at the bakery. The staff there always welcoming hi good morning they would say.
If you like bread like I do I highly recommend this place. Of course they have other things other than bread. 😎☝ 🥮 🥐🍮☕🍞🥤

The best place on earth to eat bread. I eat french bread for breakfast,lunch, and dinner.

40 cent rolls! Delicious pastries. Yummy sandwiches.

A wonderful place for a bite of breakfast! The pastries are so beautiful and sandwiches so tasty on deliciously fresh-made bread. There's even a lovely selection of quiches I've never before seen. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We're so glad we stumbled on this great place. Be sure to give their omelettes a try--served with the best potatoes, you won't regret it!!

Babettes still makes the best sandwich in town. The fresh baked French bread is so perfectly soft on the inside but crusty enough on the outside to scrape the roof of your mouth. Their desserts are killer, their soups are bomb. They been in the same spot forever, and it’s still amazing. It’s in the hood, but I love that they’re still IN and invested in the neighborhood.

Hands down best fruit tart ever!! Everyone should just come for the fruit tart is nothing else. The crust is buttery and light, fruits are fresh, and the custard in the tart is neither too sweet nor too much.

Friendly staff, delicious bread!

I have loved this place since I was a child in elementary walking by and using my sback money to get a treat on my walk home. The staff have always been amazing. Jay is definitely a stand out person their nowadays and is truly a warm and inviting hostess as she makes you feel at home! People like her really make the treats that much more delightful. Lines are usually out the door, but service is quick and food is worth it!
