Colville Street Patisserie

Prepare yourself to have to pick your jaw up off the floor… Super friendly staff make you feel welcome and you will have the hardest time choosing what to take with you! The apple danish was fresh and beautifully made with the most crisp flaky pastry. The canale was really fun with the crispy exterior and a soft almost custard like interior. You could literally come back every day and get something different and be wowed each time.

Very cute place with a nice atmosphere. We got four pastries and two drinks. The two drinks were pretty tasty (however, my mother is pretty sure they didn’t add the lavender flavoring she ordered) and my chai was good. Three of the four pastries were delicious. The eclair, goat cheese and herb croissant, and lemon cream danish were very good. The gougère seemed to be a little over cooked and we didn’t taste any cheese within it. The staff were nice, and overall it was a pretty good visit!

On 5/18/23. I visited Colville Street Patisserie in Walla Walla, Washington. My primary reason for traveling to Walla Walla was to try their Canele, a small French pastry flavored with vanilla and rum, with a thick caramelized crust, and a soft custard lcenter. I ordered a Canele and a small Mocha, as well I as a box of pastries to go. Here’s what I thought of each item: Canele ($3) - This was my first time trying this pastry, so I have no basis for comparison, but I have read extensively about it, as well as looked at many photos. The Canele was overcooked. The crunchy exterior was harder than it should have been. The yellow interior was more tender, but not custard like. Even so, the overall experience was a good one. Of the 6 items I purchased, it was by far the best, and the only one I finished eating. Given how impossible it is to find this French pastry anywhere near where I live, it’s probably just a matter of time before I fork out the 200+ dollars to buy my own set of copper Caneles molds and start making them from scratch. Biscuit ($4.50) - I had read a lot about this bakery‘s biscuits. Mine came with raspberry jam. Of the products I tried, this was the second best. It was a nice, flaky biscuit, but it would’ve benefited from being served with butter, as well as more jam. Eclair ($4.50) -  I love a classic French eclair, but this one was disappointing. The puff pastry was either stale or overcooked. The chocolate ganache was disproportionate to the custard filling. Quick Bread ($2.75) - I was surprised to see this listed on the menu as a quick bread, because the shape and size is more reminiscent of a French financier, which is a small tea cake. The combination of orange and almond is one of my favorite flavors but I found this quick bread disappointing. The quick bread was over cooked, resulting in an overly dry interior. Given how unevenly the quick bread shape was, I suspect the batter was over mixed. It looked like there was raw sugar tossed on top before baking, to give it a crunchy exterior. The sugar overwhelmed the more nuanced, orange and almond flavors. The overall experience was of eating an over cooked small cake that tasted overwhelmingly like sugar Palmier ($2.25) - The Palmier was disappointing.  I have bought better Palmiers from Mexican bakeries, where the bakers have no experience with French pastry techniques. It was over cooked, and it wasn’t as layered and crispy as it should’ve been. Kouign Amann ($3.50) - The Kouign Amann was disappointing. You can tell simply by looking at the image that it doesn’t have as many layers as it should.  This pastry was stale. It also wasn’t as layered as it should’ve been and the outer crust should have been more carmelized. Mocha ($4.25) - I enjoyed the Mocha, which is made from CSP’s own chocolate blend that includes Barry chocolate from France. You can see from the beautiful feather design that it was made by an experienced barista. I grew up in countries that were colonized by the French, so I have plenty of experience visiting patisseries. French bakeries are my favorite. I seek them out. Based on the assortment of French pastries that I purchased, Colville Street Patisserie aspires to be a French bakery, but doesn’t quite hit the mark. I’m giving Colville Street Patisserie a solid 3 star rating based on the Canele and Mocha. The service was also very good. And I enjoyed the large sunlit room with multiple seating options. It was a constant stream of people coming in and out, which prohibit me from taking more pictures of the interior. If I was in Walla Walla or nearby, I would revisit Colville Street Patisserie. I would just go with more realistic expectations next time. Recommended!

I was prepared to love this place and it was sorely disappointing. My chocolate croissant was overcooked ( dark dark brown). My husband’s egg and cheese sandwich was mediocre at best. We were done eating and the rest of the party hadn’t even received their cappuccino. Sharp coffee flavor when finally received. We always ask if if we’d order it again and it was resounding no from all parties. The outdoor patio was a perfect place to sit and eat. Looking for a better place tomorrow.

The peraline Brenton was devine. If you dont know what to get that one is one of the best pastries there. Such delicate and complex flavor that go so well together. The service is friendly and the space is very inviting.

I asked the lady at the counter what her favorites were and she steered me in the right direction. I would have never tried apricot mouse tart but I got that and the chocolate caramel tarts and it was amazing. The apricot and mascarpone dessert was so light and refreshing and extremely flavorful. The chocolate caramel tarte is heavy and rich, definitely something you share. I’ll be back for years to come. I love this shop.

This is my absolute favorite dessert place in Walla Walla! Everything is good and the Carmel tart is to die for!!! An added bonus: they showcase art (for sale usually) from local artists.

The perfect place to enjoy a Christmas Eve treat! Once again The Patisserie added to the moment with loved ones! P.S. Big thanks to Dave, the owner, for taking our group picture and giving away Christmas macarons!

Beautiful selection of pastries and take-away desserts. Great coffee in a pleasant sunny corner space -- or in shaded outdoor seating. Look for cream puffs and brioche incorporating seasonal fruits and veg. Super way to start the day.

I tried the gelato here - $5.50+tax for 2 scoops is a solid deal, especially when the gelato texture and production here is quite top notch. I chose the chocolate and rhubarb flavors and both of them have real ingredients inside (e.g., rhubarb had rhubarb bits). Bonus points that they use ingredients that are in season (and based off of offerings in farmers markets)!

I had the most amazing Rhubarb Sorbet at Colville Street Patisserie in Walla Walla, Washington, on 5/18/23. In addition to pastries, Colville Street Patisserie makes gelato and sorbets. The day I visited, they had 3 sorbets and 6 gelatos. I really wanted to try the Apricot Kernal gelato too, but I was full. I would give Colville Street Patisserie 5 stars for their sorbets and gelatos. Highly Recommended!!!

Coffee, gelato, and pastries...Ohhh my! Where does the yumminess end....So much goodness under one store front. Love this place for meeting old friends and catching up for hours. Excellent customer service, beautiful presentations of exquisite pastries, and an excellent selection...Not to mention the divine taste! Love this place!

This is a great spot to go for delicious coffee and pastries. The espresso drinks are always well made regardless of who is at the bar. My usual is a Cortado and an eclair. The interior is modern and clean. The staff is always wonderful. My wife loves it. My kids love it. I've also ordered a personalized cake for my daughter's birthday here and it was delicious. My advice to you is go here, and go more often.

Absolutely wonderful pastries. Took us back to our time in France, especially the Canele. However, I have certain pet peeve when it comes to anyone, male or female, with arm pit hair, serving my food while wearing a tank top or spaghetti strap. Maybe it's just me, but I think it's disgusting.

Super cute place with nice ambience. Had the crème brûlée, cranberry tart, lemon Bundt cake, with chai lattes. Highly recommend all of it!!

Wow the pastries here are divine!! I tried the almond croissant, asparagus bechamel pastry, and the kougin-amann (my favorite of all time). The almond croissant didn't have much almond filling/flavor to it, but the lamination was beautiful. The asparagus was so wonderfully savory and a nice change to have a savory pastry. The kougin-amann you must have!! It is so flaky and caramelized but also a little bit salty and super buttery. This is a must stop for me.

Best coffee shop on Main Street! Their gelato and patisseries are the best!! Always friendly and clean.

Wow. Just wow. Best pastries that I've ever had. We got an eclair and an apple danish. Both were amazing and had the most delicious cream! I also got a hot chocolate which was WAY too sweet for me (tastes very rich, you can definitely tell it's actual melted chocolate with milk). We ate them out in the snow, since they still aren't doing dine-in, but it was so worth it.

truly great french pastry and very fine coffee. i think their espresso machine is mounted way too high - the baristas cannot get good leverage on the portafilter. but hey, who am I to argue? worth a trip to walla walla all by itself.

First time visiting this cafe from California and what a great way to start off our visit in Walla Walla. Great customer service, the team was patient and incredibly kind. We ordered two croissants and the cinnamon quick bread which was super delicious and moist. I also ordered a soy mocha that was great, not too sweet and not at all bitter. The cafe is spacious as well so great for families or to study. They know their pastries and coffee! I hope to visit again sometime.

The pastries are so beautiful AND taste amazing. The coffee is so delicious, highly recommend. The service is always soo nice and helpful! The feeling of the patio is sooo awesome in the summer, lots to see!

This place is foodie happiness. My 1st time walking in, I was greeted by the nicest guy. He was so helpful, & so happy to describe the delicacies. The pastries were divine (asparagus with bechamel)..from sweet to savory. They have it all. I sampled the in-house ice cream (those flavors)! 1st time I got coconut, this time I got the blueberry ginger..chock full of blueberries with that perfect bite of spice. BTW, the macarons are incredible..big, soft, chew, with beautiful flavors. I had an earl grey previously, and the chocolate was spot on. This time I had peanut butter. I wanna try everything. Just go to this place..trust me, thank me later..

Driving through the area, we found this place and bought a sampling of cookies, cakes and other goods to-go. When we got back to the car and tried the cookies, my wife asked me to go back in and get more stuff. Good quality, good coffee too.

Gougere-geous! A sparking jewelry case of sweet delights on Colville, complete with gelato assortment to complement or anchor every meal. Yes, I am talking to you, breakfast. Coffee choices that are fresh, flavorful, and perfect starters/sustainers for Mon- or any day. Staff could not be more lovely. 5 stars.

First, the greeting when you walk in was great! Everyone was smiling and extremely friendly. I went for a pastry, a beautiful custard crepe with berries on top, and I had to try the ice cream they make in house. WOW! This was the best sorbet and ice cream I ever had hands down. I wanted all the flavors, I'll be back all the time..what a great place to go!

As the lady who recommended it said, the gibassier is amazing and you must do it! Sugary, fluffy and flavorful delight! The orange peel was delicately added for a citrus pop! The only problem I had was licking the sugar from my lips (which I'd gladly do again my next time through Walla Walla).

Colville street patisserie has one of the best selections of fresh and innovative pasties around. We went with the classic goat cheese and herb crassest, local cherry tart, and and handful of other great options as well as some great iced coffees. Each of the pastries was flaky, and had a sweet creaminess that worked well. It is a popular place so it will probably have a line most of the time. The other small inconvenience is the pen they use for the iced coffees. The pen marks they use come straight off the plastic cups and onto your hands where it becomes hard to remove. I would highly recommend grabbing a pastry and drink and then walk the cute surrounding town.

We visited Colville Street Patisserie for some coffee and dessert, which is the place for it in Walla Walla. Located in downtown Walla Walla, it's a nice spot for hanging out and trying some of the housemade pastries and desserts that are offered at this corner space. Everything looked really appetizing, with a range of goods from small pastries, like croissants and cookies, to tarts, cakes and gelato. My boyfriend and I ended up sharing a Cortado and a Pear Almond Chocolate Tart, which were both yummy. The Cortado was a good pick-me-up with the espresso shot and steamed milk, which went well with our dessert. The Pear Almond Chocolate Tart, a combination that you don't often see together, actually tasted very good. The dark chocolate was under the glazed pear slices and toasted almonds, making for a tasty dessert. I would definitely recommend checking out Colville Street Patisserie while in the area. It'll be hard to pick just one dessert!

This is the best bakery I've been to in a while! First of all, it smells amazing outside. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We didn't get any drinks so im only commenting on the desserts and the gelato. First of all, they have gorgeous pastry and unique flavors. I bought a chocolate Bundt cake with Baileys cream-a bit dry but flavor was good. Chamomile tea blueberry pastry - this was a hit in my house, so unique! Best for last-the lemon tart!!!! Omg it was mouthwatering. Perfect balance between sweetness and tartness. The crust was PERFECTION! I bought the desserts and asked them to keep the box in the fridge. So when I came to pick it up, I noticed the gelato and absolutely had to try some. Initially, the nectarine gelato was calling my name but it was a bit too sweet and "jammy" for me. Tasted like ice cream with nectarine jam, nothing special. But the CARDAMOM gelato . Can't find the words for it. Just go get some. Jasmine gelato was nice, it is apparently the best seller. It has a mild matcha taste, very well balanced but im not a big matcha fan. If you're in Walla Walla, this bakery has to be on your list to try!

My 5 star experience at Colville Street Patisserie began as I walked through the front door and was kindly greeted by a handsome man in a cowboy hat who was cleaning the display windows. Those display windows were SPOTLESS! The staff was so helpful in telling me about which pastries were the most popular, and what the ingredients were. I bought a a pastry that is pronounced like Queen something but I forget what it's called! I also bought a mini pie.... YUM YUM Last but certainly not least, their water was the best on earth!!!! It was cold and free.99. My friends and I greatly appreciate the friendly faces and positive attitudes. 5 stars to everyone! Thank you!

Excellent service. Amazing food. Everything is made fresh every morning. The barista with the ponytail was my favorite.

Walked in the rain to have coffee and treats at this place because of the great online reviews but wow, I was sorely disappointed! Don't believe the hype. Maybe this patisserie owes its lauded popularity to the fact that it's nearly the only game in town! The small space has a few crowded tables and self serve water in cute mason jars for glasses. The walls have some (horrible) local artwork for sale. The ordering system is basic: just walk up to the counter, pick out what you want, and place your order. The location of the register is awkward because on busy days, the line spills out the door and into the street. Hubby and I ordered cookies, an eclair, and two cappuccinos. We hated the coffees, thought the cookies were mediocre, and liked the eclair just a little bit. None of the pastries were worth the calories or the outrageous prices (nearly $4 FOR A COOKIE)! The gingerbread cookie had a great consistency, slightly crunchy on the outside and delightfully chewy inside. The flavor was spot on with a spicy ginger kick. The chocolate chip cookie was totally unsuccessful. The cookie was more chocolate bar than dough. I would've like far less chocolate chips and more actual cookie. Pass. The eclair was standard issue, nothing memorable but good enough. The coffees were a disaster. I don't think the barista here even knows what a cappuccino is because what we got was an extra long pull of espresso topped with super thick, over-whipped cream. There was no milk at all in the base espresso. It was more of a double traditional macchiato. I'm okay with that, but not when I order an overpriced cappuccino. The coffees were HIDEOUSLY ugly too. Look at my photos, have you ever seen such an ugly $4 cappuccino? I also have concerns about the sanitation at this establishment. Part of the baked goods case is open, so I watched as a couple of flies happily hopped from pastry to pastry. It was nasty.

Croissants at any kind ROCKS! Wait for photos tomorrow! Their hot Chinese tea is perfect for this weather.

The most stunningly beautiful pastries I have ever seen! Add a lavender latte and you're set I haven't tried the gelato but it looks amazing

Probably rates a 5 but I have a problem with places that could do, even limited seating, but don't. Had a decaf mocha and a pear danish, wife had a chocolate and cream cheese brownie. She raved the brownie and the hot chocolate was easily the best we've ever tasted. My Mocha was good, not great. Danish was flaky but could have used more fruit. I tasted their chocolate chipotle gelato, started off softly but had a spicy finish. Chocolate was really good too. I'll be going back for some of that. They make their own and you can tell they know their stuff. Only complaint, again, had to go eat it in the car.

It's all about the butter! The Amman and croissant were perfectly baked with just the right crisp/chew on the surface followed by soft and buttery! Coffee Latte w almond milk to top it off. Hard to beat a world class bakery in such a great downtown vibe. I love Walla Wall and all the delicious food... I don't even drink wine, but due to the hospitality, lovely setting and superb goodies I will be back to this place time & time again.

This place, ya'll! On our way out of Walla Walla we decided to stop and grab a pastry before our brunch stop which was a couple hours down the road toward Boise. I'm so so so glad we did! The moment we walked in we knew we'd made the right choice. Beautiful pastries galore all lined up in the case. I had pre-decided I was getting a chocolate croissant (we'd just been watching It's Complicated so there was no choice but to go with that option!), but could have easily been swayed to try other things had I taken much time to consider. Glad I did not as it was soft, flaky, and full of chocolate. OMG seriously it was SO.GOOD. Possibly the best one I've ever had! I also ordered a latte which was beautifully latte-arted up and was made from smooth tasting strong espresso. Service was great and I loved all the windows on this corner shop! We easily found seating at the counter that faced the street. It was the perfect place to people watch. We spotted the gorgeous flower shop across the street and saw a great Big Lebowski sweater being worn by a passerby. Pull up a seat, grab a croissant, and enjoy :).

Great coffee, healthy smoothies and delightful baked goods. Enjoy the local ambiance and seasonal goodness!

Such delicious desserts! I stopped in just a few minutes before closing to grab a dessert. The selection was not huge (as I'd expect at the end of the day) but there were still a number if great options. I chose a lemon tart and a chocolate caramel tart. Both turned out to be extremely tasty. The lemon curd was more sweet than tart but still had a string lemon flavor. The tart crust tasted like shortbread and was perfectly cooked. A candied lemon slice and whipped cream in top really brought it all together. The chocolate caramel tart had dark chocolate which I prefer and the caramel was really nice and creamy. I prefer a non chocolate tart shell but this chocolate one was good. I imagine everything here is great- give them a try!

The best coffee place in town. I absolutely love their quick bread and Im afraid I won't get it anywhere else. Their goat cheese and herb croissant was out of this world just like their quickbread. We also got vanilla latte which was yummy! Love this cute cafe!

Very popular place on a Saturday morning for breakfast (pastries and coffee) in Walla Walla.

Sadly, We discovered this place the day before we left Walla Walla. On our first trip in, the tall slim attractive woman behind the counter was short and rude, and only interested in taking our order in the order in which she wanted to receive it. My husband attempted to order the desired pastries first, and she kept interrupting him asking if we were ordering any drinks with a very grumpy face. So we ordered the coffee, and THEN the pastries. Who knew?! ;) The pastries were delicious and some of them were still warm! I had a cherry danish that reminded me of some of the best pastries I've ever had, and they were in France. My husband ordered some kind of light puffy rhubarb thing that was still warm, it was really good. We also split a small savory pastry just so we could say we had a healthy breakfast, I think it would have been better warmed. The coffee was excellent (americano). On the second day, a different woman behind the counter was friendly and welcoming, and we both had a cherry danish which was not as good as the day before, but still really good. We split a Palmier as well, and my husband enjoyed dipping his half in the delicious coffee. Note to management/owner: I know everyone has bad days, and holiday weekends can be challenging, but when you're in a customer service focused industry, take a deep breathe, and get over your bad mood until you're done for the day, and then go on a run or something, or maybe consider making your delicious pastries and delivering them to someplace that can sell them with a smile and a little appreciation for support of your business, just a thought.

I ordered a cake from Colville Street Patisserie for a friend's birthday and requested something that wasn't too sweet. I couldn't have been happier with the cake. The frosting was just sweet enough and the apricot filling complimented it beautifully. Needless to say, there wasn't any cake left at the end of the celebration!

Delicious. Delicious. Delicious. This is a little gem in a cool town. Really good baked goods. Friendly service. Pleasant space to sit and enjoy the ambience.

I really like the small, mom & pop cafe feel this place offers. Just being in the cafe made me want to eat something. There's a variety of pastries and Ice creams to choose from. I opted for an ice cream because i felt the pastries were a little pricey. I went with a vanilla & berry mix. The packaging was cute and it had great flavor. I would like to go back, but I'm a little picky on flavors and nothing really screamed at me. If you like lavender/vanilla ice and other similar flavors you'd like this place.

Wow, we've gone here twice in two days--it's that good! The first day, I was pretty full, so I went simple and got the chocolate chip cookie. My goodness--it was best-in-class. Full, crispy, chocolatey. Yum! The second day, I had more space but still not enough for all the things I wanted to try. I just got one eclair. Nicely done pastry, just the right level of chocolate on top, and cream to dream about it inside. I could keep coming here for weeks--tarts, gelato that looks delicious, new pastries every day. What a resource to have in Walla Walla!

Driving through town, I saw a "Patisserie" on a building. Wow! I had to check it out. I went into the Bakery in the afternoon. I saw a glass case with a few offerings. I assumed there were so few pastries due to the excellent quality of the baked goods and the many people wanting to have them. I chose creme brulee, peanut butter macarons, and baked goods. WOW!! there is no other way to express the flavor and the quality. I could taste the butter in the croissant and it was flaky GOOD! It has to be the best in Washington State. The macarons were AMAZING!!... beautiful delicate and had great peanut butter/brownie flavor. The Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee made my eyes roll! I LOVE this bakery and I am so glad I stopped in to check it out. It definitely is my go-to place when I visit Walla Walla in the future. Yumalicious!

Pre-Covid my roommate and I would always go study here because we loved getting the yummy pastries from their display. I've had more pastries here than I can count and I have yet to try one that was disappointing. They have fewer seats inside now but it is still a good area to study. And on the warm days they have a cute porch which over looks part of the downtown area.

We ducked into this little place while looking for a sweet treat while strolling around downtown Walla Walla. The experience was great! I had a vanilla latte which I order a lot of and was very impressed with it. Steve was also with me and we split a lovely cherry almond pastry which we found to be very rewarding. We were on such a roll with the sweets we got some ice cream too in and we enjoyed that very much as well! Great to hang out for a snack!

Stumbled on this place 20 minutes before closing. There were only select few pastries left and we thought we have missed all the "good" ones. WRONG. Though we did not get to see everything, Colville Street tops my list in French Bakeries I have been to, including any famous ones out in Seattle, LA and San Francisco. Their unique ingredients that typically would not be mixed, like ginger, lavender are surprisingly so balanced in palate. Even their "quick bread" doesn't taste so quick! The only thing I may point out is the display is not as "eye candy" as other French bakeries, but who cares when it is the taste that matters at the end. I still compare Colville from any other new French Bakeries I visit.. and it hasn't changed my mind how good this place was. Staffs are also very welcoming!

You must stop by this place for the best lemon tart ever! It was made with perfection with just the right amount of lemon juice and tartness! The crust was heavenly! We also got the almond croissant and it too was amazingly delish.

Sweet to savory, lite to filling, and flaky to creamy - they've got it all and do it very well. My ham and cheese croissant was flaky and tender, and still warm when I got it shortly after they opened. It was actually quite filling, and for the price of a specialty fast-food breakfast sandwich, I'd gladly take this anytime. Plus they were pretty quick too. So if you're looking for a quick casual breakfast or maybe midday treat, look no further.

Pretty decent little bakery. Got the basil lemon Italian soda and 2 macaroons. The macaroons are a little bigger and more filled that what I'm used to, but I'm not complaining because they were delicious! Wish this place was a little bigger and it would be a great study spot!

Must Try!! The baked goods are amazing. The croissants (almond and chocolate) were on point. So good I had to come back the next morning and purchased a bag for the trip home. If I had to pick just one, I would go w the chocolate. I paired the croissant w a latte which was creamy and made with pride (see pictures). For dessert - the green tea, blackberry and almond cake is recommended. We took a slice and refrigerated it in our hotel for after dinner and it did not disappoint. Will definitely revisit the next time in Walla Walla

The true taste test of espresso: an Americano. No disguising the taste with milk, syrup or other added ingredients, well, except for water. I'm trying to branch out and try a few other places in town when it comes to my daily (sometimes twice daily) caffeine fix, but I have learned that my taste buds don't jump for joy for the beans from Walla Walla Roastery, which is what the espresso is here. Bummer. This is a cute little store on the corner with a display case filled with some yummy looking pastries, and I've had a dessert a year or so ago, which was really good. If I come here again to taste the pastries/desserts, then it will have to be the chai tea, not the espresso! Free wi-fi, though.

We stayed in WW for 4 days, and visited this patisserie every day! The gelato is wonderful - we tried the lavender chip and the apricot chamomile sorbet - with outstanding flavors! For patisserie, we had the peach caramel brioche, orange chocolate tart, palmier, kouign-amann, and maybe a few others. It's so great to have actual patisserie instead of the common American offering of just cookie and brownies! If we go back for another vacation, this will be a stop every day again!

Still dreaming of the ham and cheese croissant I shared with my husband! We split 3 pastries and each had a coffee. A wonderful treat!
