Far Breton Bakery

I used to see this place in Dane county farmers market. So decided to go to their brick and mortar store. The place is small. They also have a cafe next door. Morning glory muffin was my favorite item here. Morning bun was good as always. Almond croissant was the third item. It was good as well.

Visited Far Breton Bakery for the first time for an early morning snack. I don't normally commute to the east side, but was especially excited to check it out. The bakery is a cute, small, and homey space that's next to a sit in cafe / diner. I got the chocolate pain and a spiced sugar apple pastry. Both tasted good and priced at $5 a piece. The chocolate pain tasted surprisingly savory (due to being a bit salty). The staff were friendly and polite. Overall, would return!

Really really good breakfast pastries. Not many dessert pastries but I loved the chocolate croissant with chocolate dough. It was a little savory which was wonderful for me. The cardamom bun was really good too.Not much space for seating at all more of a hole in the wall pastry counter. Good service.

Be so careful at this place I took one bite of the most amazing regular croissant I've ever had (now mind you, I've been to France) and OH MY GOSH. The receptors in my brain started screaming for joy. Then I had the sweet muffin-esque croissant creation and- *review can no longer continue as author has left and gone to heaven. Try this bakery at your own risk, lest ye be transported to heaven as well

Unassuming on the outside but with some delicious pastries inside! The pastries here are definitely on the denser side but delicious nonetheless - we tried both savory and sweet. Their three cheese quiche was particularly incredible. The noir croissant - chocolate pastry dough and filling - was delicious but a bit more dense than I prefer. Their savory and sweet danishes - pesto cream cheese and apple crumble were both fantastic. The kouign amann was amazing - super buttery and perfectly caramelized. The woman working behind the counter was also very welcoming and patient! Hoping that next time they'll have savory crepes and we'll be able to hang out in their cute cafe space.

I can't believe Far Breton has been open for a year and I am just discovering it now. I had a pastry from them for the first time last weekend and am now hooked. Hands down - best bakery in Madison.

Hands down the best bakery in Madison. From sweet to savory, there is no better. Open limited hours and strong demand, expect some items to be sold out later in the day. As I mentioned, everything is amazing but must tries are the Kouign Amman and their morning buns. Buttery, rich, decadent. The closest to an European Bakery without hopping over an ocean! A must must try.

If you haven't had a chance to check this place out yet, what are you waiting for!? They have the most amazing selection of bakery you'll find in this neighborhood, and they serve it up with a smile! They're talk you through each interesting item and the plethora of flavors available, and sometimes they'll even let you have a taste if you're on the fence! When I pulled up one of the employees came out and held the door for the woman leaving. So sweet (no pun intended)!Not only did I get delicious baked goods, but I also received a ton of compliments from the staff, and they really made me feel at home in the 5 short minutes I spent there. In short, GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR BUSINESS!!! I even heard they are expanding, and will have coffee soon!

We were looking for this place because living in Eau Claire we do not have access to Far Breton on a regular basis. We know they make good quality baked items. Happen to be in town so could not pass up the opportunity.

Interesting pastries, some times a little off the mark, sometimes excellent. The owner now has a seating area and some cafe food items. I'm hoping that this will help build this business that she bootstrapped to this point. It's worthy of support, and my hope is that it will continue to develop.
