Sweet Wheat in Redondo Beach is a thoughtfully designed bakery that strikes a comfortable balance between cozy and spacious. They had a special Buy 3 Get 1 Free Viennoiserie, which came out to 15.35 after taxes. For pastries, that's a great deal! I ordered the Salted Caramel Apple Cake, Kouign-Amann, Almond Chocolate Croissant, and The Pain aux Raisins. I ordered the pastries online and stopped by to pick them up, finding the space lively with several groups both inside and outside. There’s plenty of seating, making it a solid place to enjoy a pastry while working on a laptop. The atmosphere feels warm and inviting without being cramped, and the holiday music added a seasonal touch. The Salted Caramel Apple Cake stood out with its layered textures: a soft, pumpkin-pie-like center and a chewy apple-forward top. Rich and well-balanced, it earns an 8.5/10. The Pain aux Raisins had good softness and plenty of raisins, though the flavor leaned heavily on them alone. 8/10. The Kouign-Amann delivered good interior crispness, but the caramelized top was overly hard, lowering its appeal—7.75/10. The Almond Chocolate Croissant had a pleasing texture, but the almond and chocolate combination didn’t quite come together, earning a 7.5. Would it comes back? Sure, if I'm in the area and craving pastries. But overall, it fell short of making my rotation of pastry shops / boulangerie. Nevertheless, I had a positive experience here.

This is a nice, charming coffee shop by the ocean with tasty French bites. It’s clean, has friendly service with menu prices a little bit on the high side. Dietary restrictions: The items are clearly labeled with allergen information. It makes it so much easier and safer to choose what to eat without guessing. Parking: There’s a small lot behind the shop and some street parking, though it can be tough to find a spot when it’s busy. Kid‑friendly: They have stylish highchairs (without seat buckles) and not much space inside for kids to move around, but the terrace feels more kid‑friendly. Outdoor seating: The outside area is lovely with a nice ocean breeze, but it can get windy at times or a bit noisy from the nearby road.

Sweet Wheat is more than just a bakery; it's a neighborhood treasure. It's the perfect spot for a morning treat, a weekend indulgence, or to pick up a dessert that will truly impress. Go see for yourself why this place has earned a reputation for having the best pastries and croissants around! Jae M.

Sunday mid-morning was bustling. Food options were amazing and ranged from meals to desserts and morsels. Really well developed menu! The food presentations were impeccable and the layout of the cases made sense. We opted for a ham and cheese croissant (hot) and a salmon/avocado croissant (cold). Neither disappointed! Very authentic and really nailed it! We were really happy with our choices. The croissants were not overly flaky nor over buttery. I can't describe it but they were the perfect medium. Chef's kiss! We also picked up dessert for later. After much debate we opted for a chocolate hazelnut cookie and a pan de chocolate. Definitely chocolate heaven and I was elated that the cookie was SOFT! It didn't taste like it was frozen and really screamed fresh. The pan was soft and fluffy... kudos on the fluffy well-distributed bubbles inside! Would we come back... 30 minute drive... endure the locals... zoom around Sunday drivers... abso-freaking-lutely!!! Can't wait! 🎉

10/10. The food is high quality and actually tastes fresh—you can tell they put real care into the ingredients. Everything from the bowl to the dessert was balanced and perfectly prepared. Big shoutout to Tristan for the service; he’s attentive, friendly, and clearly takes pride in what he does. Highly recommend.

Wanted to try a new bakery. Came here to get some French pastries and yummy savory sandwiches. We got the Lorrain quiche, ham, egg and cheese croissant, a baguette. I forget what the cherry/ raspberry dessert is call but it was super light and yummy. Not overly sweet. The White chocolate pistachio cookie wasn't good which is my drop in stars. It was too crumbly, had no flavor, and super super dry. Texture and taste was like sand. Would not recommend any of the 🍪 ❌. Both savory items were actually delicious and also like that they ask if you want it heated but my only concern is that it's been sitting out too long (so make sure to ask) or see if they can make a fresh one (doubt it but never hurts to ask). Also got fresh orange juice (small bottle) and a lavender honey latte (not enough espresso), both were very mediocre. Everything was overly priced. This location has parking (limited) but there is parking. The person helping us seems lackluster, sweating and didn't feel like he wanted to be there but we got our things pretty quick though. All in all, Great ambiance outside and indoor seating which is nice. Probably won't be back. But for a 1st time - okay 3/5

Sweat Wheat is Redondo is a must try! Their new Quiche Lorraine has a perfectly flaky crust, rich egg filling, and its packed with flavor. Everything thing taste authentic, and as a local I will be coming back. Special thank you to Tristan for being very kind and helpful during my family's visit. Great food and amazing service!
