I love Bien Cuit! I used to live in this neighborhood and got treats from here every so often. I ALWAYS got the almond croissant , which I love. I recently stopped by and decided to venture out into some newness and got the pastry in the photo. It was a tasty mix of sour , sweet and salty. Good , but not something I’ll get to be honest. Definitely a must visit overall though!

I love bread and even more amazing bread ! They make this gorgeous, buttery and flakey croissant! If you get there early enough you get one of this delicacies. They also sell high quality products and well everything is delightful!

When I heard about Bien Cuit I said to myself I have to go. It's super cute place with tables that you can sit and enjoy your coffee and croissant. The products are delicious, well backed and crispy! I took a traditional croissant with butter and jam and daniish with asparagus and cheese, delicious!!

Pretty solid french bakery in Cobble Hill. Croissants are a bit more bread'y than flaky/airy but still quite tasty. Staff have always been nice and coffee drinks are good.

Great customer service! No sit down option but almond croissant was amazing. Super crispy on the inside but fluffy on the inside

Paid $9 for a chocolate almond croissant, which was only alright -- I can't justify the price. Definitely on the sweeter end, and I didn't really taste a difference even with their "bien cuit"/well done style of baking. Overall a decent, but not must-try, croissant.

I love their 🥐croissant ( I made a filling sandwich by myself at home.) and their most famous 🥖sour bread Miche is also good. Especially I highly recommend the dessert ✨Gateau Breton. The only item I think they could work harder on it is the 🍒cherry pane dolce. There was only a little cherry filling inside and hardly taste it. So overall I decided to give 4, if considering the services. I was not that familiar with certain names of pastries/ desserts. As a result I asked a person who replied to me “Read the description.” I said I did but those are names that didn’t explain the details. The person then took out a sheet with ingredients and said “read it by yourself.” I mean, we all know pastries are usually made with flour, egg and butter but who knows if you are making a crispy croissant, or soft sweet bread? Eventually another person helped me and explained.

Slightly expensive. Ambience is nice. Smells great inside. Warm on a cold winter day. Not very spacious or perhaps it may have been full of people. Good luck finding parking on a saturday afternoon. Overall it was a nice spot but hard to get to and hardly no seating.

$1.75 for a very soft, delicious chocolate chip cookie. 4 stars because the selection is somewhat limited. Cute spot for a coffee and pastry while studying.

I've never had such a mid $8 pain au chocolat. I'm not sure if the pastry was stale, but the croissant was tough, not flaky. Every blue moon, I try and give this place a chance, but frankly they're egregiously expensive for a mediocre product.

DO NOT BUY THEIR COFFEE. As delicious as the breads and pastries might be, their iced beverages are such a rip off. Ordered a 20 oz cold brew and it was like 16 oz of ice with 4 oz of coffee! Go to blue bottle or absolute instead for your coffee. Pastries and bread are still good, no doubt. Also definitely a takeaway only place.

Finally stopped in because it always smells amazing, the best buttery bread smell, even in the afternoon. I got a croissant and apple gateau breton. The croissant is big but also clearly way overdone and tasted very ‘meh’. The gateau breton was good, I wouldn’t dream about it but I’m not mad at. Upon getting home, I see I’ve been overcharged as well. Disappointing, just go to Mia’s across the street instead. Edit: I’ve been responded to by the business; even if the concept is a “well done” bake (which I did not know), the croissant did not taste good. The flavors were not deep, it just tasted burnt, not even buttery. Still, I thank you for explaining the intention.

Ask when the cakes were baked. They claim everything is baked fresh, yet the sell-by dates vary, which feels misleading. The baked goods themselves are good, but this business practice needs to change.

$8 for an apple pastry that ended up being a bit over baked, dry, with not that much flavor. Probably wouldn’t bother coming back to try more.

This ain’t it. Other neighborhoods get Radio Bakery, smør, la cabra etc. We get bien cuit. A dated, pokey, burnt bread place for boomers who don’t know how good it actually can be. And to top it all off, the staff completely ignore you as you enter and wait to be served. Instead they’ll carry on talking amongst themselves about what music to play. Feels so awkward as a customer, but they couldn’t care less. They’ve given up.
