Review Ya Bon French Baker - Hastings

Went there for a late afternoon coffee and there wasn’t much left by way of bakery goods. However the one praline cream pastry we had was absolutely delicious. And the coffee was spot on for someone who’s fussy with their coffee. Apparently most freshly baked items are gone by about 11:00 am so next time we’ll do breakfast here. Not much by way of seating but there’s a nice outdoor area as well.

Beautiful pastries and great coffee. Staff pleasant and helpful. Definitely going there again.

Their coffee is one of the best in Hastings. And, their almond croissants are 10/10

I am a fan of almond croissants. If I visit a new bakery, I assess the quality of the pastries by how well they do this staple. Ya Bon passed the test! What a delightful almond croissant. Crispy, flavourful, filling. My mouth pleased. My stomach warm. My heart full. Continue the great work!

Very nice coffee with artisan bakery!

our first experience was superb! had the baguettes; simple no fuss fresh ingredient kind breakie & also ordered a cinnamon roll (?). food was just top notch! this was on our morning before the hike up sunrise hut and the day after we popped by to grab a chia seed sourdough as we couldnt not swing by to have those delicious baked goods. if we are ever in the area, we’ll definitely have a stop over.

Hastings is darn lucky to have an authentic French bakery of this caliber! Best almond croissants south of the equator! Lovely owners and great customer service.

Great spot. Perfect food and baking. Love the ham rolls and brioche.

Coffee weighed to the gram and made to perfection.. thank you!! Pastries were just stunning and were a PERFECT MATCH to the perfect coffee. Lovely setting and funky decor. Well done guys.. You have a perfect recipe!!

Delicious sandwich, cake and almond croissant!

Amazing place ,great food and fantastic teas.

Beautiful food. The French doughnuts filled with custard or berries are just amazing. Great coffee and an amazing bakery you can watch the process of the bread and pastries being made. Highly recommend for a bit of indulgence.

Lovely bakery but be quick in the morning if you want an almond croissant or donut! Ya Bon is paired with a coffee vendor (Cupple) which was a good thought. Quite small seating area.

Wow, this cafe is amazing, awesome set-up where you can view the bakers actually making the scrolls and other food. And ... the food is delicious, so french.! thoroughly recommend although they were a bit short of seating.

Didn't eat here but had great coffee

We had an Almond croissant from this bakery today, wow! Bloody delicious, probably one of the best patisseries I can ever remember having, hopefully be back to try their other menu items soon 👍😁
