“ Have always loved this place for a quick stop in between meetings and appointments. Most recently addicted to the almond croissants which are the closest to authentic French croissants - perfectly flakey, slightest crisps on the ends and almond paste that’s not overwhelming. No time for photos. Just believe it and enjoy one for yourself. ”
“ Had an absolutely fantastic breakfast here! The quiche was light and fluffy, with a perfectly buttery crust. It came with a fresh side salad that balanced the richness of the quiche beautifully. The orange juice was fresh-squeezed and full of flavor. To top it off, I indulged in an amarena cherry mousse cake that was delicate and flavorful, paired with a lavender cappuccino. Highly recommend! ”

“ Breakfast was delicious and the service was top-notch. Our server, Ben, was especially attentive and made everything feel luxurious. I had the breakfast flambe and shared nutella and custard croissants with my friends. My only complaint is that the breakfast flambe was a little difficult to eat because the base was a little weak and the egg kept falling off. It was delicious, though. ”
“ The ambiance at Pierrot is a delightful mix of cozy elegance and modern charm.the food is the best especially avocado toast. But it’s the dessert menu that steals the show. The selection of sweets is nothing short of extraordinary. Each dessert is a work of art, meticulously crafted and bursting with flavor. ”
“ Cutest little cafe ever! Located on the corner of the Peninsula Hotel, you’ll find a quaint bakery offering breakfast, lunch, coffee and desserts galore! Everything was delicious and beautiful, I’m not even a coffee drinker and I ordered a lavender cappuccino and a matcha latte. Don’t miss this place! ”
“ Last time we visited at around 1:00, we tried desserts from here and was perfect. This time, we went here around 10:00 and tried the brunch menus and it was fantastic. Even though we waited for about 40-50 minute, it was worth it. Hash is good. All the Breads are good. French Toast bites are good. Quiche was also good. I will definitely visit here again. For sure. ”
