Julian’s Patisserie and Cafe - Bakery and Desserts in Folsom, CA

Been here a few times and the sweet treats are immaculate, as is the breakfast burrito. Haven't had many other items on the menu but that will soon change. The owner I've met a few times and he was always welcoming and kind to us. I'd recommend this place to anyone wanting a pastry or something similar.

So glad I tried their crepes, we got the blueberry lemon one and the house made curd was just perfect. Not too sweet, with the right amount of tartness. Their menu items are diverse and the store is clean and neat. Very friendly staff, and delicious food! I would go back just to try their other menu items.

Do not walk, run to this place! You wanna run also to help out with all the yummy calories you will eat. My first time there today and I got the cinnamon roll. Omg the absolute best I EVER had and I'm 49!. It was a huge buttery crossiant with a thick layer of cream cheese frosting on top and cinnamon sprinkled on top of that. It is huge, enough for 2 people to share. It melts in your mouth and is pure heaven!!! I promise your gonna thank me if you try it!

My first visit at the cafe was in the afternoon and almost all the pastries were sold out. Luckily, they still got some croissants left for me to try. There were plenty of seating inside and few outdoor seatings. Fast forward to few months, I went back here for a breakfast with my friend to try their menu. We ordered at the cashier and was given number for our table. We arrived at 8:30am and got our food promptly. At this morning hour, all the pastries and baked good were well stocked. The cafe got busier as we finished our breakfast. - butter croissant: the size of croissant was huge! The outer layer was crunchy and the inside was flaky and had perfect air pockets! Unfortunately, it lacked the buttery taste. - almond croissant: very crunchy outer layer and flaky inside. The frangipane filling was a bit too sweet for me but has good flavor - chocolate croissant: good flakey & crunchy croissant. There was only a small piece of chocolate inside (which was kinda disproportionate to the size of the croissant itself) - wish it has more chocolate inside. - blueberry lemon crepes: flavor wise it was good but I think they might overcooked the crepes. The crepes were very crispy, more like cracker texture - unlike soft crepes anywhere else. The lemon curd filling was very bright and full of lemon. The blueberry pieces were plump and fresh. - egg Benedict on croissant: my favorite!!! The crispy & flakey croissant was the perfect alternative to english muffin. The eggs were perfectly poached with runny yolk. The hollandaise sauce was good and creamy. The potato pieces were crispy and well seasoned.

Julian’s Patisserie absolutely deserves 5 stars. They handled our wedding cakes and did an amazing job—from the gorgeous floral design (see photo) to the perfectly smooth buttercream. We picked the cakes up ourselves and everything was ready on time, boxed securely, and exactly as we’d ordered. The cakes were moist, flavorful, and beautifully decorated; you could really taste the quality of the ingredients and the care put into every detail. Beyond the wedding, Julian’s is now one of our favorite spots for brunch. Their pastries are flaky and fresh, the coffee is solid, and there are plenty of savory options so everyone in our group finds something they love. Service has always been warm, patient, and helpful, even when the shop is busy. If you’re looking for a local bakery for special-occasion cakes or a relaxing weekend brunch, Julian’s Patisserie is a fantastic choice.

Tried this place today, ordered Vege Omlette, Lemon Blueberry Crepe and another Vege Crepe. The Veg Omlette with mushrooms, mozzarella and tomato and eggs was awesome! lemon crepe, the cream filling was on the tangy side. It was quite full and satisfying.

What a gem! Pastrie option galore! It would be a crime for you to go here and not order the crossaint cinnamon roll. Their berry and angry bird crepes were good and loaded. Vanilla syrup for lattes is made in house, and Staff was very friendly. Got there after 10am on a Friday and it was slow, but by lunch was very busy!

This was my first visit. I stopped in around 930 am on a Friday. There is plenty of parking. They are open from 8am to 4pm Monday thru Saturday and from 9am to 4pm on Sunday. It's a very nice bakery/café with seating inside and outside. When I entered I could smell the aromas of baked goods as well as the delightful smells of breakfast (bacon, eggs, etc.). You see the pastry display as soon as you enter. They all looked delicious! I decided on buying a few of the cookies (triple chocolate with chocolate chips, regular chocolate chip and oatmeal raisin). They are very large cookies. I broke off a small piece of the oatmeal raisin which was crispy around the edges, very chewy, moist and delicious! The other cookies (for my family) appeared to be the same texture and I'm sure just as delicious! The staff were all very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day so I had to ask about it. To my delight breakfast is served anytime during their open hours (8am-4pm). I will definitely be returning sometime soon for breakfast! In addition to the pastries, desserts, and breakfast, they also serve lunch and are known for their pizza, crepes and cakes. You can view the menu on their website. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming. I observed families with kids, people chatting and laughing, as well as people sitting alone. There was a steady steam of people ordering to go, as well as eating inside and outside. This bakery/café is most definitely a place check out.
