Farine Bakery & Café

Despite being on a busy street, having a coffee and cruffin on the outside patio in the early morning was quite enjoyable. The short line moved very quickly and I was greeted at the counter very pleasantly with a smile and a bit of small talk. There were ample options to choose from like a wide variety of pastries, drinks, teas, full breakfasts, and more. I had an iced caramel latte with soy milk and it was easily the best coffee I’ve ever had, but this was also my first stop on my first trip to Seattle. The option of glass dishes for dining in was certainly a bonus.

Love stopping by here despite how busy it gets. Patio was full since it was such a nice sunny day. Long line inside worth the wait. While we waited we watched the team by the bakery window rolling fresh croissants.There was no room to sit so we had to-go our order. We bought a loaf of baguette for home, two almonds croissants and one chocolate Croissants were freshly baked and every flake was just yummy!!!! We ordered a latte as well which was not the best. Coffee and pastries are pricey compared to other bakeries around. Place gets busy so does get dirty with crumbs on the floor and dirty tables. One would hope customers would clean after themselves, but no. Overall great vibe, cute merchandises for purchase. Will be back for baguettes.

Totally obsessed with Farine Bakery & Café Cutest little French spot with sunshine, good vibes, and amazing brunch! ✨ I had the Truffle Croque Madame and Eggs Benedict Croissant – both were so rich, cheesy, and buttery with perfectly cooked eggs! The fries were golden and crispy, and that dipping sauce? Chef’s kiss! And let’s talk about the Pistachio Paris-Brest… Dreamy choux pastry filled with light pistachio cream, topped with powdered sugar and little roasted nuts. Heaven in a bite! 🥐✨ Plus, their pastry case looks like it came straight out of a Paris bakery – everything is picture-perfect and impossible to choose just one! Definitely coming back for round two 10/10 brunch date spot! ☕️🍴💛

Just amazing! The food and coffee both are great. We go for their orange peel mocha and also had their seasonal afogato. Both the coffees were great. We also tried their egg shakshuka which was very good. Overall the ambience is very nice. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Very good ambience. Absolutely loved it ..

Absolutely delicious! My boyfriend and I shared the pain au chocolat, the mocha croissant, the breakfast sandwich, and the shakshuka! They were all super good especially the mocha croissant, perfect sweetness. We also got a spicy chai and a Belgian mocha with whip! All under $55 which is insane! Great prices! We were shocked by how reasonable everything was! Got our heated pastries in under 2 minutes, our drinks under 3 minutes and our main food around 10 minutes which was amazing! Definitely will be back to this perfect breakfast spot!! Highly recommend!!

I visited Farine Bakery & Cafe in Bellevue and ordered the Belgian Waffle and a small Americano. The Brussels Waffle was absolutely delicious—crisp on the outside, fluffy inside, and so good that I polished it off in no time. The Americano took a little longer to arrive due to the crowd, but don’t let that put you off. The wait just proves how popular their coffee is, and it was worth it—rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to explore more of their menu. Definitely a spot worth checking out!

We recently visited Farine Bakery &Cafe and had a wonderful experience! The food was delicious, with generous portions and fresh ingredients.I particularly enjoyed the Veggie Breakfast Sandwich,which was cooked to perfection. The service was top-notch,with friendly and attentive staff! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting.

Tried the Quinoa Salad and Veggies Basket Croissant — both were fresh and tasty. 🥗 Qenua Salad: Light, clean flavors. Quinoa was well-cooked. It could use a bit more seasoning or texture. 🥐 Veggies Basket Croissant: Flaky, buttery, and filled with delicious roasted veggies. Very satisfying! Cozy spot, friendly staff.

Went with a friend Saturday morning ~9 am. There was a short line and while it was full inside there was still space at the communal table. The food was excellent and the service was great! About 30-40 min in, a line started to form wrapping outside and inside seating was scarce. The food was excellent although my one complaint was there was too much dressing on the salad. The dessert, main dish, fries, and dirty chai was amazing. I will come back again definitely for the food!

This cafe is cute and their food and coffee is really good, not to mention their sweets are delightful! It does get extremely busy, so be ready to possibly having to take your food to go. I've been there a few times and on one occasion I had to take my food to go, and the other occasions I kind of felt in a rush to allow other people to sit. I felt bad... I suppose being busy is definitely not a problem for the business but for clients - just plan on possibly having to wait.

I came for lunch on a weekday at noon. It was busy and I was glad to see there was a large table available for our group of 7 to sit together. Pros: nicely decorated with tall ceilings and lots of natural light. We were served relatively quickly despite the number of customers there at the same time. The food was nicely presented and looked nice on the plate. Service was friendly. Cons: It was LOUD. They desperately need some acoustic panels in the ceiling. All of those voices bouncing off of a cube of hard interior surfaces meant that I struggled to hold a conversation with the person seated to the left of me and directly across the table. Forget a single conversation for our group of 7 - impossible. The food was.... Okay. It looked lovely. My salad was fresh and colorful. It just didn't taste of much beyond lettuce. I got the BLT baguette. Again, it looked nice with fresh ingredients. The baguette was fine, softer than I expected. The tomato had no flavor, though I can't reasonably expect a tomato in Seattle to taste of anything, certainly in the winter. The bacon surprisingly didn't taste of much either. Usually this is the star of the dish that carries the whole sandwich, and it just didn't. I find myself dreaming longingly of the BLTS Specialty's served with the super thinly sliced bacon that was crispy and melt-in-your-mouth, a veritable umami bomb. That was amazing; this was not. As everything these days, it was pricey. On a good day I can squint my eyes and make peace with a $18 sandwich at a fast casual place, but only if I can actually socialize with my dining partners. When I'm leaning into my lip-reading skills and asking people to repeat what they say, the meal loses its luster.

Shakshuka was very good, i would recommend it. Also the everything cruffin was very good as well. Only street parking and it can be quite difficult to find some. It's also a wait in line and then find a table, which can also be difficult when there are a lot of people. Overall a great brunch place.

Farine Bakery is known for its French baked goods. The place is pretty famous and gets filled really soon. So if you're looking for seasonal goodies, then you may want to go early. The place has a cute ambience and runs full over the weekends. I tried the chocolate Eclair and it was delicious. Had to be one of the best eclairs I've ever had! Absolutely delicious!

I've been to Farine Bakery and Cafe twice now, and each time I enjoy something new. My favorite so far is the Smoked Salmon Tartine. The smoked salmon is perfectly seasoned, and the bread is wonderfully crisp, making every bite a treat. The place has a relaxed vibe and friendly service that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy a meal. If you're in Bellevue and looking for a tasty, satisfying meal, give this spot a try.

Farine is sooo cute and aesthetic for brunch. The food itself is also pretty good and given the price point, I would say it's reasonable for the east side. The croissant sandwich was really yummy, but the matcha latte was a bit disappointing as there wasn't much of a matcha flavor. But overall the ambiance + food is pretty good!

Food was super fresh and tasty! It's very crowded in the weekends, so be prepared to wait in line to order and find a spot to sit. They have plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Food was really good! Fresh butter, bread, and pastries. The breakfast was really filling. It's a bit on the bland side, so I added a lot of hot sauce to my food. This location is way better than the Redmond one.

I am not sure what kind of magic they perform here, but they have great food, good coffee and it is all done in a timely manner for a large crowd of people. We were warned about the long lines here and on a Sunday at 10 am there was a line with about 15 people ahead of us. As we were eating our breakfast the line grew to outside the doorway. It's very popular for a reason. Order at the counter and then find a seat. They were pretty quick at cleaning off tables which made this run pretty smoothly. Farine's menu consists of beautiful baked goods, sandwiches, waffles, soups, salads and the perfect baked desserts. I wanted their seasonal butternut squash quiche but they were sold out by 10 am, so I went for my second choice of the veggie breakfast sandwich($12). It was a very good size and I definitely could have shared this. The sandwich consisted of a purr-fect croissant with egg, avocado, and marinated tomatoes on it - they were so tasty I could have eaten a whole dish of them. My latte was served in a lovely big mug and tasted delish. We impulsively tried a crème brûlée cruffin and an almond croissant and both were heavenly and worth every calorie. They are open until 3:00 so this is also a great lunch spot.

I've been to the Redmond location so I know that this place gets busy and chaotic but I didn't realize HOW busy and chaotic the Bellevue location could be. It was like everyone and their mom was there- definitely made me sad for the surround bakeries / cafes ha. Interior is loud and can be hard to hear/find a table. Food makes up for it because of how delicious and fresh it all is. Ordered the veggie croissant sandwich and the croissant itself was light and crispy without being too crispy, the tomato remoulade helped bring a nice zing to the overall dish and I wished there was more it (or at least better distribution), there was supposed to be cheese in my sammie but I think they forgot. The truffle croque madam was super rich, too rich for me but the fries were perfect. The creme brûlée cruffin was incredible, soft and not dense at all, the cream wasn't too sweet. I could have eaten so many.

You know you're in for a treat when you are greeted with such a wonderful aroma before you open the door! I had the Crème brûlée Cruffin, it was crispy and savory. Also tried the french toast, they were huge fluffy pieces of bread and topped with blueberries, strawberries and raspberries. Had coffee the before from coworkers ordering delivery but first time stopping in. "I'll be back" -Arnold Schwarzenegger

This is one of my favorite brunch places. The food is always fresh and delicious. It does get pretty busy though so try to come early in the morning or late in the afternoon. I went there once around 11am on a Saturday and it was busy but we were still able to get a table. I went there another time on around 12/12:30pm on a Saturday and it was packed. You had to fight for a table. Once you sit down, the ambiance is very chill and pleasant though.

We stumbled across this bakery while leaving an appointment nearby, and my goodness - it might be actual heaven on earth! We ordered a sampling of absolutely insanely delightful pastries from their beautiful case, a loaf of mind blowingly good seeded rye bread to take home, 2 delicious breakfast sandwiches (the veggie croissant and the croque madam), and 2 simply perfect lattes. The food and experience were definitely worth the wait! We haven't stopped talking about it for days, and every time we take a bite of this rye bread we talk about how we have to make the drive from Seattle just to get another loaf! Baristas were super nice, and our food came out fast for how busy it was! I would give 10 stars if I could :)

AMAZING!!!! This place is a MUST if you are near Bellevue!!!! Food: Everything looked amazing!!! We opted for mostly pasties, lattes, and mochas, but next time I'm trying something off their food menu. One friend got the Farine Breakfast and confirmed that it was delicious. His favorite part were the tomatoes and he doesn't normally like them. Lattes and mochas...5 stars!!! So good we all got a second cup! Pastries - 5 stars!!! The mocha croissants were to die for! We lucked out and got them fresh out of the oven. Service: Fast and friendly!!! Very attentive staff and management. Ambiance: Cute and consistently busy. Not to worry you'll eventually find a table. Definitely will come back soon!!!

Wow!! Always pass by this cafe but never tried, finally decided to try and I'm glad I did. The pastries all look so good. I got their lavendar london fog & belgian waffles and it was good! It is SO busy inside. Hard to find seating, kind of have to wait around until a seat is available and there were a lot of people waiting. It does move fast tho. You order at the counter, take a number and they will bring the food to you. Will have to go back to try other items on their menu for brunch. I recommend if you're looking to try a new cafe! They have 2 hour free parking at Brio apt, just register your car with the ParkMobile app before you go.

The food here is great and the staff is friendly but they seem to be short staffed as orders sometimes take a while. Parking is terrible unless you are willing to pay for the underground garage or walk several blocks from where you parked. I would return there because the food is worth the trip.

We ventured on over here for a late breakfast on a Monday morning. Getting there at about 10:30 was the right move as the place had an ever present and ever growing line for the next hour and a half! People definitely enjoy this place and we found out why! French in its roots, they're doing things up right here. The pastries were spot on, the desserts delicious and the sandwiches (breakfast and otherwise) were quite good. The service was friendly, but given the number of people, it took a long time to get our food. Worth the wait, and also worth bringing something to keep the kids busy. Good coffee, fruit drinks and a fridge full of all sorts of other good stuff. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating - outside filled up quick, but the patio was massive. It's got a very cool vibe and while it's louder, it's not overly so. We all felt it facilitated conversation! Prices are what you'd expect at a popular spot in Bellevue - $100+ for our five, but again, a solid investment in breakfast! The Benedict croissant and breakfast sandwich were big hits, as was the French toast. Worth your time to come check this place out!

This place was BUSY! But very rightfully so. We got the Farine Basket and the seasonal offering of latkes (with mochas to drink of course, which were delicious). The basket comes with SO much bread, so definitely bring friends or a strong jaw, but it was fresh and fabulous. The latkes were amazing, with such strong onion and garlic flavors. I do wish there were a few more on the plate but who doesn't want more of a good thing? I loved the mocha and the seasonal peppermint mocha, great Belgian chocolate in there. As previously mentioned, it was very busy in there which meant it was very loud, but those two things go hand-in-hand. I can't wait to get back there sometime and try some more pastries!

We've been in here once, it was a very good experience. It was a weekday morning, and it was busier than I expected. There were many families coming in from the close by condos and apartments. Made the experience extra busy. The service at the counter was good, we were taken care of very quickly. It took a moderate amount of time to get our meals. The food was quite good, everything we had was fresh, made to order. A good buzz in the environment, we have lots of people having great conversation conversations.

I'm so happy they opened the Bellevue location! I used to frequent the Redmond one but this is even closer now. I come occasionally for a baguette and try seasonal items but I came for breakfast with a friend recently and it was so yummy. The parking situation is a bit confusing and not the most accessible... ofc the place was packed and line out the door as well but worth the wait. I ordered the breakfast plate and it was good! Only thing is that I was looking forward to the roasted tomatoes and it didn't taste the same as Redmond's (more mushy warm tomato, instead of sweet jammy caramelized). The staff were really nice and patient as well!

The breakfast croissant was a nice light breakfast. Also cannot believe their regular croissants sell for $2.95 each! I also ordered a pumpkin tart to go, it was pretty and a not too sweet dessert. It's an order and find your own table kind of establishment. Can be difficult to find a table during busy hours, but the order line moved pretty fast for me on a weekend late morning. Good for casual dining.

I loved the outside patio atmosphere, so much seating! The service was quick and you order at the counter upon arrival. Lots of yummy food options! We got tomato bisque with grilled cheese! The delicious crisped up cheese on the sandwich was my fav! The Belgian fries were okay, wish it was more crispy on the outside and served warm. The aioli and sauces it came were okay. Chocolate latte was yum! Lastly, their pistachio baked good was delicious! Cons: Parking! I did not see any designated parking and street parking for difficult to find on random Wednesday. Overall, definitely a great spot for catch up/brunch spot in the Bellevue area!

I wanted to venture out to some place new, so my friends and I decided to check out Farine Bakery on the east side. The place is big and there are a lot of seating. It was nice that they had two long rectangular table that seats 8-10 people, which we shared with another group with ease. I had the caramel latte and the creme brûlée cruffin. The custard on the pastry was just perfect. The cruffin was pretty big so I was full after eating one. I also tried my friend's croque monsieur, which was a little salty but tasty. There was also outdoor seating, where the seats by the window were warmed up from the heater above. Staff was friendly and service was nice and quick.

Great spot for a morning bite and/or coffee! Ordered a belgian latte and pain au chocolat for takeout, and the latte was so rich with a creamy, smooth texture. The croissant was amazing as well, with so many fluffy layers and delicious chocolate filling. The place was extremely crowded even on a weekday morning, but service was reasonable despite the bustling scene, and the seating area is very big.

They offer great pastries but their kitchen items we lacking in flavor. Almond croissant was excellent especially when warmed. However I ordered the French Toast which was like a thick slice (2) of pound cake. It has no traditional egg coating. It lacked in the crispy outer crust you find with great French Toast. Instead it crumbled when I cut it like a dry pound cake. Strawberries were thawed frozen ones. The syrup was tasty but couldn't make up for the lack of text and flavor of the French Toast. I also ordered a side of bacon, which was tasty but room temperature. If you go here I do not recommend the French Toast, but the pastries and coffee are excellent!

Super crowded, over priced and much too sugary drink choices. I had a cup of tomato soup which was overly think and flavorless while struggling to squeeze into seating which tends to be a madhouse on weekends. Just not worth it when there's so many other amazing choices in the area.

We were looking for breakfast on a Sunday morning before a road trip, so we had the dogs with us. We were able to find a spot on the patio fairly quickly, but it is a pretty small space. It's a restaurant where you order inside and then they bring the food out to you. I ordered the croissant Benedict and my partner had the French toast. Both were very good, flavorful, and well-portioned! I loved the hollandaise and the buttery croissant!

Since Farine opened, my family has been coming here and loving the food!! I usually get a berries and cream Belgian waffle when I'm here but today I decided to switch it up and get a bread basket instead. The bread basket was full and came with both strawberry and raspberry (maybe?) jam. Both jams were delicious and paired perfectly with the bread. The presentation was incredible and even though it took a little while to get to me, the guy serving us was patient and friendly. My sister and I both got iced coffees. She said her iced oat milk vanilla latte was good, not watery, but a bit too sweet. She did love the flavour of the coffee and I agree. My iced oat milk Belgian mocha was delicious. The mocha was perfectly incorporated with the drink and balanced the coffee taste perfectly. I love the ambiance of Farine. Usually it's really packed and hard to find a table, but today my sister and I easily found a well-lit spot by the window. We did have to clean off our own table, but that's more because the patrons before us didn't do so. I think during the week when it's emptier, Farine might be perfect for bringing a book or my laptop and getting a lot of productive work done. Can't wait to come back!! And shout out to the awesome guy at the counter with dark curly hair for taking such good care of us during our visit!

We had heard good things about Farine, but we were still really pleased. The food is outstanding. If you do not live in area, parking can be a challenge--we found spot on street, but not easy. I understand there is a parking garage, but we did not see it. Then this seems so popular, you can expect crowds--we were there on a Friday at 10am and there was a long crowd. When you arrive, you will get in line. The process to get your food and drinks are separate. They will bring your food to the table--if there are at least a couple of you, have one try to find table (which can be a challenge to find). Then the other person needs to wait on the drinks. The drinks take a LOT longer than the food. I am not sure what they can do about that, the baristas are just really overwhelmed. For me drink, I had a chai latte. This was excellent, just very flavorful and delicious. The food is the real treat though. I had the breakfast croissant sandwich with bacon, eggs, and cheese. It was phenomenal, just the ideal sandwich. I also had the almond croissant--the almond filling was sublime. Then I had some of the hazelnut tart. This was super rich, but just wonderful. Again be prepared for crowds, but it is worth it. We will be back.

Couple of veggie options . Chocolate croissant, waffles are delicious. 1. Staff is very cooperative. 2. P2 parking is free for 2 hours. 3. Drinks are served at coffee bar and food at the table.

Absolutely LOVE Farine -- just pricey but the vibe, the pastries, the food is all so good. Parking can be a pain since it's an underground parking garage and you DO have to remember to register your plates when you enter Farine. I've had plenty of their breakfast items and they've all been solid. The vibe is clean, modern and bright and perfect for a ladies brunch/coffee!

This place was amazing, service was so fast and friendly. We only waited about 5 mins until we found a table for all of us. This place is great for the families, and a good weekend brunch spot. The food was amazing and we would definitely be back! Btw: prices were also very reasonable.

Farine Bakery was AMAZING. I went early on a Sunday morning and somewhat beat the rush. There was still a line at this point but it was not yet out the door. Farine is set up for you to order at the counter and then find your seat. I ordered an iced vanilla latte, a creme brulee cruffin, & a breakfast sandwich. It was the first time in my life I had ever tried a cruffin and I was not disappointed. It was incredible & is now on my death row meal list. My latte and breakfast sandwich were equally delectable and came out very fast. Had Farine been busier at this point it would have been more difficult to find seating.

Nice cafe to visit in Bellevue and inside is really cute. Parking is pretty easy, there's a garage downstairs and the first 2 hours are free but you need to make sure to sign up on the Park Mobile app for it. It gets busy even at around 8am (on a Saturday) so would just keep that in mind if you're looking to dine-in. For food, the chocolate eclair was delicious as well as the cinnamon bun roll - great place for pastries and sweet desserts!

One of the best brunch spots in Bellevue. The food was so good and had large portions! The staff were all very friendly and the restaurant was just aesthetic af. They had seasonal drinks which were delicious. The ingredients were fresh and the eggs Benedict croissant was the best.

First time I've been to Seattle and my sister-in-law invited us for breakfast at Farine. We arrived after 9 am and the place was almost full. Once you come inside, you'll be greeted with rows of pastries and sandwiches. They offer a variety of breakfast dishes and also hot beverages. Their coffee cups come in ceramic cups. Their drip coffee is good and not bitter. Their ham and cheese croissant was delicious. They got these crunchy flakes outside and ham and cheese melted inside. The French onion soup is so creamy and delicious. The breakfast plate has bacon, scrambled eggs, potatoes, and a slice of bagel. We enjoyed our breakfast and had a great time out this morning.

Very poorly made coffee, we tried to exchange the drink for another drink and the restaurant manager pushed back claiming they can't exchange drinks based on personal preference. I ordered an iced matcha latte and received a hot 8oz, and got scolded by the barista that an iced latte comes in 12oz. I explained I wasn't the person who entered it at the cashier I requested an iced matcha latte. Very bad service for a restaurant. The sandwich breads was over cooked and hard like leather. I would not recommend Farine Bakery to anyone based on the service alone. Very bad service on so many levels.

Really great coffee and pastry. The place was packed and seating was tough. The sandwiches looked and smelled great.

Got here around 9:30 am and the line was wrapped around the place. The line moved through smoothly and the food came out very quickly. Their employees are very efficient and have a great system going managing the line and making sure everyone is well taken care of. Tried the eggs Benedict croissant and it was delish! The meal came with an option of breakfast potatoes or a salad or you could do half and half. What a nice option! Ordered a pistachio strawberry Paris to-go and it was soooo good! Have tried an assortment of their pastries and all have been delicious. If you haven't been you need to check it out. I will definitely be back again!

I was in town for work and wanted to get breakfast at a local spot. Farine Bakery & Cafe was a Google rec, and it was fairly close to my hotel. A-MA-ZING! So happy I found this place. I was highly content with everything I ate at the cafe. I strolled into Farine Bakery around 10:15am on a Tuesday. The restaurant felt welcoming and homey, and their beautiful dessert case was naturally inviting. The place was quite busy, and it looked like most tables were occupied. I decided to take a seat outside, albeit a chilly morning. What's nice was there were heat lamps overhead, which made me comfortable. I ordered the Seafood Tartine and Hazelnut Milk Chocolate Tart, and they were absolutely fantastic. Not going to lie, the Tartine was considerably expensive since it had lobster and shrimp but I felt the value was well worth it. The brioche bread used for the toast was thick and pillowy, which made as a great foundation for sopping up the sauce. The shaved fennel and sliced scallions added a nice freshness to the toast. The tart was to die for. I think at one point I closed my eyes while eating the tart to just savor every type of flavor. It didn't feel too rich because of the light hazelnut cream and milk chocolate custard center. I think there was also some type of sponge cake in the center of it, which attributed to a different texture that I liked. I look forward to coming back again. Can't wait to try the other desserts.

Looking for a brunch spot that hits all the right notes? Run, don't walk to Farine Bakery & Cafe in Bellevue! This gem serves up a brunch experience that's sure to be a delight. Their breakfast sandwich is a must try. I asked the staff what the most popular sandwich is and they did not disappoint when they said the breakfast sandwich. I ended up going with ham instead of bacon, but I'm certain the bacon would have been just as amazing. This sandwich was packed with savory goodness with a perfectly buttered-flakey croissant. It's a satisfying start to any day. Pair it with a mimosa for the ultimate brunch indulgence - refreshing, bubbly, and so so delicious! I came here on my lunch break after work so the setting was a bit busy. Not a problem for me though. The service is top-notch, and the food is simply scrumptious. Whether you're craving something sweet or savory, Farine Bakery & Cafe has something for everyone. If you're in Bellevue and in need of a brunch fix, don't hesitate to swing by this lovely place. You won't be disappointed!

Good quality food in a great location. Farine is a spacious breakfast/brunch bakery with baked pastries as well as an extensive sit down menu. it's a good place to stop by if you want a quick bite or a coffee chat with a friend. they have extensive seating, indoor and outdoor. outdoor seating includes heaters for cold days as well. service is quick, you order when you walk into the cafe and servers bring out your food to you. we ordered the breakfast sandwich and the french toast. no complaints about either item, both were delicious and fairly priced. the drinks here are good as well, great coffee/matcha. will definitely be coming back soon!

Took a rather large group of my family here to brunch before a family wedding and it blew my socks off. It was busy, but well staffed and we were still able to find seating for all of us despite it being 10:30 on a Saturday. They had heat lamps to combat the colder, windy weather and plenty of accessible seating indoors and outdoors. Despite the busy-ness, the staff were helpful and personable, including the owner who was walking around and even stopped to chat with my dad for a bit. And this is all separate from the food and drinks! We ordered assorted coffee and pastries, and every single one was a win. I personally had a cardamom orange latte (which the Barista helped me curate specially from their menu), and it was some of the best coffee I've ever had. Not too sweet, but an amazing roast and notes of orange and cardamom coming through perfectly. The croissant had the best lamination I have ever seen, definitely rivaling croissants I've had in France. Everyone was incredibly pleased with the food and drink they ordered. All in all, if you're looking for brunch in Bellevue, you can't do better than Farine.

I loved that there was enough room to make my way through with a stroller. If you're lucky (like we were), you can find a spot in one of the corners and have your stroller parked without it bothering anyone :) This was my first time at Farine's with a few girl friends. It surely won't be my last. I loved the ambience. You get up to 2 hours of free parking in the same building - just make sure to register your vehicle (QR code available). Great place to catch up with friends and grab a delicious breakfast/brunch. I loved that there was drinking water and cups conveniently placed on 2 counters. I didn't use the bathroom so can't speak to the cleanliness there! Okay let's talk food! I had such a hard time picking out what I wanted to try because everything literally looked so good. The menu has photos too (aaah everything looked great!). I opted for the eggs Benedict croissant! It was amazing.

I had the Farine Breakfast and it was the perfect start to the day. Ordered my eggs scrambled, had the sausage which was not the greasy kind, but tasted homemade with peppers inside for a nice spicy kick. The potatoes had a nice crispy brown to them, not burnt. The bread was also great and had a hint of sourdough with a nice crust. And of course I had to have a chocolate croissant which was flaky and buttery. Got here around 9am on Saturday and the place was busy but still plenty of seating options for two. Availability comes and goes and the place started filling up when we were finishing breakfast. The underground garage offers free retail parking for up to two hours. That's a nice add, as parking can be rough in the downtown area.

I work close by and just discovered Farine and it has been absolutely dangerous for my wallet. Oh my goodness, their caramel latte is slapping. I just randomly order something off their specialty menu and their caramel latte is slapping, I honestly haven't try any new drink since it's so good. Not sure if it's the beans they use or caramel, or both, but definitely it's real caramel and not the syrup ones. I guess this is their 2nd location, they have one in Redmond but I hear this one is a lot more spacious. It gets busy, I see the line out the door but since it's so spacious, there has never been a problem getting a seat. It's comfy to work out of or meet up with friends. They also have an actual food menu on top of pastries. Sadly it's one of those places that open really early and closes early also, so if you miss the 3pm window, you're out of luck missing out of delicious-ness. This is located in the Brio building, there's street parking or complimentary 2 hour parking in the garage but you have to register it through the insufferable Park Mobile app. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:)

Very lovely menu with seasonal items. Their desserts are amazing. The croissants perfect. Their bread is delicious.

One of my favorite bakeries in Bellevue. They get really busy in the mornings and definitely sell out on a lot of pastries by noon. The tarts have a really crisp crust and there's a good selection of croissant based pastries. They have seating for brunch and other menu items and you are expected to bus yourself. The interior is nice and clean, but sometimes dirty if the previous person didn't clean up well.

We came here for breakfast today after finding this place on Yelp. We got there around 9 and the place was fairly busy but there was no line. Food came out very fast and service was great. We ordered a ton, including some stuff to go so we could enjoy it later. We got the mocha croissant, seasonal waffle, crème brûlée cruffin, and a caramel latte for there. We also got the Farine basket and an almond croissant to go. The seasonal waffle was caramel apple and it was yummy with tons of whipped cream and tart apples on it. I wish the waffles had been made fresh so they were warm but at least they were still crispy on the outside. The mocha croissant was tasty although I couldn't detect any mocha in it. It tasted like a chocolate croissant with a chocolate crumble on top. It was really good and I enjoyed the contrast between the fluffy croissant and the crunchy crumble/streusel topping. My husband loved his crème brûlée cruffin and devoured it quickly. The caramel latte was delicious and strong. I definitely recommend this place if you're in the area and want breakfast or some pastries.
