Bien Mérité Cafe, Bakery, and Restaurant

Clean and quiet which made for a nice atmosphere midday on a Friday. I thought the food was okay. I had the turkey Swiss croissant and a chocolate chip cookie. About the only thing I liked was the croissant itself. Maybe all of their French food is better, I'll have to go and try again! All of the food at least looked really delicious.

Update: Bien Mérité (BM) has been consistently delicious food wise and great customer service wise since they opened. I am very grateful with their mask policy.

CC’s newest local gem! Bien Mérité truly makes one feel as if they’re in Europe. The small shop, outdoor seating, coffee, croissants (several other pastries and chocolate) and voilà!
Bien Mérité also carries the most popular products of Matcha Konomi.

Stop by to grab yourself a matcha/coffee, various kinds of chocolates, croissants, kolaches and other pastries.

Additionally, the amazing and friendly customer service makes it a truly “win win” business!

Excellent! Everything from the pastries to the sandwiches is perfectly crafted: great flavor and great presentation! Be ready for long lines!

I want to love this place, but the service needs to be better. The food is amazing! It’s probably my fault for not checking my to go orders before I leave, but they are never correct…I’m always missing items…and the payment process that is set up for automatic tipping is interesting…
I think I’m just going to stop being a customer…

This place was so adorable and the pastries were absolutely Devine I love the whole aesthetic and the fact that it's women owned #womenboss and local, definitely a 10 out of 10 and definitely will make this a new favorite spot.

I have been looking forward to trying this restaurant out, but was unfortunately overall disappointed. There was an odor throughout my stay that I couldn’t quite pinpoint, but not savory. The wait to place our order was a little longer than anticipated with only two people ahead. The caprese avocado toast was delicious, but my London fog latte was watered down. I had also ordered a strawberry cream puff, but the pate a choux was too “eggy” tasting for my liking. As we were leaving the restaurant we were approached by a panhandler for money in the parking lot. I don’t believe I will return.

The staff is so friendly, the environment is a 10/10 and any pastry you get will never disappoint, I can’t believe it took me so long to find this lovely place, if you have never been here you are most definitely missing out

This place is a true hidden gem! The outside is nice, but when you turn into the parking lot to see the start of the cute decor, you still don't realize what a treat you're in for. When you walk in, everything is SO cute! I love all the pink, and the flower wall is such a beautiful touch. The lighting over the counter where you order is chic and classy. The food is fresh and the pastries are delicious! We loved everything we tried: the caprese avocado toast, eggs benedict, chocolate mousse, strawberry beignet, and chocolate croissant, as well as a caramel macchiato and a cookie latte (both iced). You can tell the food is made with love. Glad to have such a great place right here in Corpus!

We dined in one weekend and went through the drive thru another. I will say that the wait time at the drive thru for 2 caprese avocado toast orders and 2 lattes was a little bit long, but we weren't in a rush so we didn't mind. Remember, this food is made fresh so patience is key! :)

Croissant was good. Love it. But I kept noticing a fly when they were placing the bakery in front counter.

Very good bakery were you can find different pastries such as croissant (sweet or savory), cookies, cakes and a lot more. The pastries were good, unfortunately it took too much time to make a cappuccino. Fortunately they are still working on quarantine and you can order food to pickup.
