Although the line can be long, it's worth the wait! I've tried everything from their pastries to sandwiches and it's all out of this world. Top notch coffee too. Hands down, best bakery in Houston!

Local Houston Magazine

We ordered the torta al pastor which was fresh chorizo on a sandwich with guac and salsa roja . Pretty dang good. We also got one of the chocolate croissants which was amazing. Lattes are delicious.

Aptraveler

One of THE best places in town to enjoy genuine French pastries ???? & desserts , some amazing artesian bread & sandwiches or delicious coffee based beverages to silky hot chocolate . Can’t go wrong here!

Damon Sununtnasuk

Amazing food and baked goods - just can't get past the price. $80 for three people and you have to pour your own coffee / water, get your own silverware and napkins, and find your own seat. Extortion.

Daisy Zook

Pastries all looked yummy. I got some almond croissant , hazelnut chocolate chip muffin and a pear scone . Had the honey lavender cheesecake and tea at the cafe . Cheesecake was just heavenly! ????

Sean Stoner

Fantastic pastries as well as breakfast/brunch dishes. Drip coffee and espresso drinks are also excellent. They also sell Stumptown beans (used in their drip coffee ).

Tere Perry

The Black & White Cake is a work of bakery art ! Beautiful and delicious, it'll make a elegant culinary statement on your dessert table. Or go for something fun with the Unicorn Confetti Cake .

Edna Manzanares

Got here too late for a croissant , but had plenty of desserts to pick from! Macarons are perfect..just the right size, and the texture is divine!! Don't brush aside the cookies , though! Delish!

Ashley Mcginness

Coffee is great, pastries are wonderful and not too sugary, atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed, customer service on point!!! All employees very happy and helpful!

From the croissants that make food-lovers swoonto the savory items, it's hard to lampoonchef Shvartzapel's quote now that clearly, hands down,Common Bond is truly the best bakery in town . Read more

Jessica Sellers

Recently, I visited Common Bond Cafe & Bakery to have some delicious desert . And I have French pastries and desserts , which were amazing. I also tried coffee , and it did not disappoint me.

Jeremy Burnes

This is, hands down, the best bakery/coffee shop I have ever been to. They're breakfast sandwiches are the best I have ever had. Try one!

Rachel Goss

This is the original location. They've expanded a lot (soon to be in Hobby Airport ) and the lines are just as long. Be prepared to wait and hunt for parking on the weekends.

Christy Landes

Light and pretty inside. Somewhat prissy service as others have noted but breakfast sandwiches outstanding!!! Fresh squeezed oj . Pastries too big but good! Community tables.

Indre Laba

We had sandwiches , Texas deluxe was extremely good ???? coffees were amazing too!’ didn’t have space for desert , but hopefully next time!

Fernando Covas

Everything is made with top quality ingredients. Hard to find this selection of pastries and breads (and this level of quality!) outside of France.

Tavi Moo

Chocolate tart is so good. Buttery crust with deep rich chocolate fudge and sweet caramel at the bottom for an extra layer of flavor. Pricy but very nice.

Stephanie Auzston

The biscuits and gravy were delicious! Fluffy, homemade biscuits with creamy sausage gravy .

Eric Henao

Oct 2014 - Worth the hype. Line was minimal on a sunday morning before 9:30am. It IS crowded and a bit noisy , but WE had a great time and experience.

Gnat Brain

Everything here is pretty good. Serve third wave coffee (stump town , boomtown, greenway). Sit at the bar to order instead of waiting in line .

Xela Montes

Nice atmosphere skip on lunch choices, especially the boudin sandwich for the week of nov4, unless you like your boudin on the extra grilled extra brown side.

Samah Alsammahi

Amazing bakery ! Coffee is good too. Try the lavender latte if your into trying something different.

Christine Ha

Best croissants . Chocolate chip cookie . Prepare for long queue in morning or depleted supply in afternoon. ???? ☕️

Andrew Sarofim

All the pastries amd dishes are wonderful here. If you don't get here early though some of your favorites may be sold out.

Connie Recchini

The biscuits and gravy is a great choice for brunch . Get an almond croissant to go for later in the day.

Samantha Mae

Really loved the breakfast sandwich and the almond croissant ????????????

Mae Deguzman

First time here. Tried an Almond croissant , chicken torta , and vanilla latte with soy milk ...all were delish!!!

Damien Franco

The grilled cheese ! Wow. Sweet from the caramelized onions with salty cheese and savory bread , yum!

Andrea Brito

Great pasteries nicely served. Definetely a great place to go for a coffee !

Their bread is scrumptious. Several sandwiches are on the spicy side.

Latte and bakery are amazing. Lunch is good but not as fulfilling sit at the bar for a good experience

Awesome pastries and well-made flat whites !

Rebecca S

Their bread board, a selection of fresh bread with butter and jam , is amazing.

mo b

Try the pain perdu , it's like soft french toast infused with cheese . Delicious.

Jonah Eaton

It would a sin to call it a cookie , rather it is a mountain of baked dough and chocolate chips

Alkeisha S

Chocolate croissant and almond croissant is so good!

Shaun

Breakfast Tartin -Duck breast is amazing.

Fodor's Travel
