Common Bond Bistro & Bakery

Wow, this place succeeded my expectations! It’s not too often that you find a regular looking spot that does bakery so well! The two items that we got were amazing. However, I did like the kouign amann that we ordered a little bit more than the berry one due to the amount of filling inside. The textures for both pictures that we got were amazing, I would eat it with no flavor whatsoever whether it’ll be cold or hot. It’s hard to find a place like this. I’m glad that I tried it and I highly recommend it won’t be coming back in the future especially them having 50% off of their selected pastries one hour before closing!

The pastries are amazing. Had a fruit tart and some Macarons to go, definitely some of the best I have ever had. Dine in, I had the breakfast tacos and they were great as well. Really good to have such a fine bakery/bistro option in the area.

I’m leaving this review simply because Natalie is the best Barista hands down. She made me a salted caramel Latte and it’s been THE BEST ONE i’ve tried. I can’t express how much it takes me back to one my father would drink back in Chicago so it definitely holds a special place in my heart. Thank you so much Natalie for my Latte. I love it and officially coming here all the time for it. <3

I came to the Common Bond with my friend, and it was a bonding experience! The vibes are delightful- a little chilly, but that’s nothing a hot drink can’t fix. The coffee was really good; and while I didn’t get any food, they have a variety of delightful looking pastries. The servers are patient, talkative, and hard-working.

This was our first time visiting, and while the experience ended on a high note, it didn’t start that way. We had a few questions about the menu, and unfortunately, our barista’s attitude was surprisingly dismissive. When I asked about the white chocolate mocha, she curtly replied, “This isn’t Starbucks.” The audacity! I politely explained that I was a first-time guest—and also a local food guide—and her demeanor shifted immediately. Thankfully, a more experienced staff member stepped in and took over our order. She was incredibly attentive, making sure our coffee was not only delicious but beautifully presented. She even went the extra mile to ensure our pastry was freshly made and photo-ready. To be completely honest, the coffee and pastry were outstanding—worth every sip and bite. My
