chouquette patisserie & café

really really good coffee and im confident to saychouquettepatisserie officially have the best crossiant in the whole of brisbane. we also ordered the strewberry tart to take away it was really really nice.

been here a couple of times in the past but recently had the pleasure of re-visitingchouquettefor sunday breakfast with friends. queues atchouquettewaxes and wanes over the morning - don't expect a table once you arrive, and get ready to grab a table once someone leaves.
we got a latte, almond croissant, pain au chocolate, wholemeal sourdough and goats cheese tart (not all at once of course, got a goody bag to take home). highly recommend each and every one. the pastries were deliciously flaky with flavourful fillings. the savoury tart was yummy, not too salty at all.
chouquette continues to be one of the frontrunners in brisbane's french bakeries! will definitely be back.

i had the mushroom croissant. light, flaky pastry with a tasty mushroom and bechamel filling. i love the variety of traditional french sweets. the chausson aux pommes (apple turnover) is delicious. but then again everything made with butter tastes better - the main difference is thatchouquetteknows how to use it and not make you feel like you have to waddle out after eating it. i also tried the apricot and nougat eclair. very light and not too sweet. very busy so if you want air-conditioning (inside seating), go early.

went tochouquettetoday and ordered the pistachio cake and the lychee cake to share with friends. the pistachio cake was pretty unique since it is made of horseshoe pastries and it was too heavy for my taste but my friends liked it. i like the lychee cake as it is very light and refreshing, especially after a heavy brunch. will be back to try other cakes and order the lychee cake again :p and the staff were very friendly too

we had high expectations forchouquettepatisserie - the almond croissant met and exceeded those expectations!

the almond croissant was flaky and buttery, the filling was rich and flavourful, but still light - just how le bon choix used to be. the croissant rated a 4.5.

the traditional sourdough baguette was great - 4.

the mini brioche was above average - 3.5.

the iced latte was a little bitter (3) and the palmier heart was quite dry and lacking any sweetness (2.5).

would return for the almond croissant and baguette in a heartbeat!

as i've been exploring new farm lately, and with my love of french pastries, a friend suggested that i ought to givechouquettea try. it was situated on barker street, just off brunswick street. . upon entering, we were greeted by the delicious sight of pastries and buns. w i note that the pastries had a much more basic looking colour compared to the vibrant colours that i am usually used to in le bon choix, which looks far more natural.

love this place. best almond croissants in brisbane!chouquettenever fails me. everything is just delicious. the mushroom croissant is so good, the filling is creamy and rich with mushroom flavour.
ordered the individual cakes before also and they are divine.
coffee service can be slow but coffee is smooth and not bitter.

my husband and i visitedchouquettepatisserie for morning tea and thought it was absolutely delicious!! we had an almond croissant and a chocolate and caramel slice- yum!!! we will be back!

founded and managed by lara sample,chouquetteopened in 2006… i didn’t visit until 2014, what a shame! at least we got a few visits in before moving away.

with the skills of french-born and trained bakers and pastry chefs, alongside australian staff,chouquetteconsistently produces authentic and high quality delights. it’s easy to see why customers return again and again.

in 2013, chouquette’s sister business, crust & co, opened in wilston as a wholesale business that also caters to the public. if you know me, then i’ve definitely told you how much we love crust & co!chouquetteis no different, with the bonus of more options and atmosphere!

the small bakery in new farm opens at 6:30am weds-sunday. get in early for the best selection of goodies, as well as a seat! there are a handle of seats indoors and a few more outside on the sidewalk. definitely not a place to set up shop and study for the day, but a bite to eat and catch up with friends is perfect! you will also notice a consistent stream of customers come in for take away goodies through out the day.

this is one of my favourite café in brisbane. as you can see from the urbanspoon rating… it never disappoints. you are always greeted with a smile and then followed by ‘bonjour’. the café has a relaxing atmosphere and great outdoor seating area. weekends can be a very busy with constant flow of customers but if you wait patiently (15-20minutes) you still manage to find a table. this year we kept our yearly ritual to have breakfast atchouquetteon the last working day of the year. we arrived at 7am and there is already a queue! we ordered two flat white, an almond croissant, pain au chocolat, pains d'amande and a gingerbread christmas tree (for dessert at night). all in all it was approximately a$35. the sweetness of the viennoiseries were perfectly balanced with the flat white. it was a great start to a perfect brissie day. bon appétit!

beautiful french pastries, but room for improvement. we frequently visitchouquetteand are always impressed with the high quality of the lovely food and coffee.

the major downside, however, is that every time we come they have run out of some of the items we were hoping to order. most often this happens with pain au chocolat and almond croissants, but also occurs with the savoury croissants and macarons. we hear other patrons remark on the lack of selection as well.

i would like to suggest thatchouquetteincreases the production number of some of their more popular items. i realise that the numbers are related to potential for wastage, but surely the number of customers asking if there is any more stock out the back should indicate that the numbers may need to be increased.

bonjour brisbane!. yum.
i met a girlfriend for coffee atchouquettethis morning. i must admit that it is a little busy on the weekend but we didn't need to wait more than a few minutes for a seat. the selection of bread, pastries and sweets on offer are incredible. this little cafe gives many of the patisseries i have visited in france a run for their money.

consistency is key. i believe the great thing about this place is that they're consistently good at some things, and consistently not-so-good at others. it's great becausechouquettenever leaves you guessing.

once you know what to buy and what to avoid, much joy can be had here.

few other places in town bring out the authentic tastes and textures of france likechouquettedoes (well maybe montrachet too, but we're talking bakeries for the time being). then again, we would expect nothing less from an establishment whose chefs and bakers have been sourced from france’s institut nationale de boulangerie patisserie. as they would say in french, 'delicieux!'

amazing lemon tart!. i've been to paris and eaten from quaint patisseries and been miserable ever since because i thought i'd never be able to find anything anywhere near as good outside the streets of paris.chouquetteis devine. the shop is straight out of france complete with french staff. the baguettes are tastey and filled with simple but fresh ingredients that allow the bread to be the star. the sweet selection on offer is amazing. i went with girfriends and we sampled the chocolate tart, chocolate croisant and the lemon tart. all were heaven sent and worth every calorie filled bite. the only downfall to choquette is that because of it's popularity it's not a very relaxing place to sit and eat and enjoy a coffee. the line to get in is out the door most of the time and the eat in area is right next to the line to order. we got our goodies take away and wandered down to new farm park to enjoy our treats in the sunshine. i'll definately be back....alot.
