Le Clementine Bakeshop in St. Petersburg - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I was so excited to try Cafe Clementine after many have raved about it. I was even more thrilled to surprise my spouse by bringing home one of their special cherry pies they have right now. Unfortunately, we ended up not eating it after only a few bites in because we bit down on not 1, not 2, but 3 cherry pits. Each bite had cherry pits. Am I crazy or is this extremely dangerous?! Not only are cherry pits painful to bite and can break a tooth but they have cyanide in them. I thought it was an unfortunate fluke the first bite to get one and then was shocked that I bit into them in each subsequent bite. I will say that the other pastries we had as well as my matcha tea were delicious, but the entire experience was ruined by the pie and pits. What a bummer, and totally avoidable. Especially for the price. Oof. So bummed and a lawsuit waiting to happen for a chipped tooth.

Cute cafe inside the art museum. The food and desserts were very nice! The cream filled croissant was beautiful and delightful! The sauce on the breakfast sandwich was delicious! The lavender London fog was lovely! My husband enjoyed the avocado toast. It has a nice kick.

I took my dad to Cafe Clementine's on Father's Day for lunch. We ordered the chicken salad sandwich and we both enjoyed it. I'm told that the bread and salad are both made by Vince. He truly but his foot in it! 10/10

The wait was 30 minutes for the food, but it was so so good. Inside the museum, but that contributes further to the atmosphere. The chicken salad sandwich and brioche were amazing.

There’s no way to describe how amazing these bakers are. Imagine the sugar-spun crispy outside of the best donut you’ve ever had being folded multiple times into itself and then stuffed with a creative cream. Come on!

I love this place more than anything! I've tried popular bakeries in New York City and they do not even compare to what Cafe Clemintine has to offer. Their attention to detail is spectacular and everything is so aesthetically pleasing. They also switch up their line up often so there is always something new to try! Some of my favorites are the strawberry milk croissant, double baked rose raspberry rose croissant, the crunchy coffee cream puff. A Gem in the Tampa Bay Area

They made such a beautiful cake for my baby shower!

Absolutely love this place. Please bring back the Turkish Eggs.

Amazing chocolate croissant. But the prices are extremely HIGH. Service was fast & friendly.

I visited Cafe Clementine today in hopes that I would have an incredible experience. Unfortunately, I arrived later than expected due to traffic and I was about 30 minutes from closing time. The line was long but it gave me time to really decide what I wanted. I asked the cashier if there were any espresso latte options but she told me there wasn’t, only cold brew. I decided to give it a shot and ordered their Salted Honey cold foam cold brew. I also ordered the chocolate chip coffee cake and the chocolate hazelnut croissant. Both are DELICIOUS. The only item I did not like at all was the cold brew coffee. It was bitter and much saltier than I expected. I wish I had the time to speak to the cashier about disliking the cold brew but they were closing up and I didn’t want to make a fuss. Maybe next time I will try a matcha or lemonade. I look forward to my next visit.

Lovely little cafe with great pastries and more. Few things bring me more joy than a good almond croissant in the morning and this is definitely a place to find one. You do not have to pay to get access to the cafe. They have a nice quaint atmosphere and will be back to try more!!

This is a little gem of a cafe nestled nicely within the Museum of Fine Arts. You can enter off the front or the back, and there is both indoor and outdoor seating. The bakery is the star of the show for you, with great sandwiches as well. We ordered the egg salad sandwich and the chicken salad sandwich. Both were tasty, and the sourdough bread was baked perfectly. We also ordered some pastries and a lemon meringue tart. These are quite nice as well. The one gripe is that the iced tea is served in an 8 ounce plastic cup with 6 ounces of ice. 2 ounces of iced tea is an absolute miss in every sense of the word as no refills are given. Please fix this by giving larger cups, especially at the high price point. We paid $63 for two sandwiches, 2 drinks and 2 pastries and a cookie, so this is not cheap at all.

This is a true gem! Pastries are out of this world, they were handcrafted and you can tell chef pays close attention to details! Outdoor seating has a spectacular water view, great experience

By the looks of it, we didn’t think much of the cafe when we walked in. We noticed the counter was small but filled with fresh pastries. The line was long and the tables were pretty filled but it was a Saturday morning. We got a few items to share & then after we finished, we walked around the museum. We expected more coffee options but the cold brew was good! The pastries were delicious. The only thing that would’ve made them better is if they were slightly warmed. Overall a great experience.

Hidden gem. The savory Brioche was to die for. Creative and perfectly executed. Many options for lunch/brunch/snack. Atmosphere calming and refreshing. 10/10 would recommend.

Got 2 cinnamon rolls that were out of this world delicious and HUGE! really nice atmosphere in the museum with view of water! Would recommend anyone try out

Can’t say enough about this artisanal bakery! The pastries are so creative and delicious and you can’t beat the atmosphere of the beautiful Museum of Fine Arts. The staff are friendly and always a pleasure to interact with!

Edible Poetic Masterpieces. That's what you can expect at Clementine's, nestled within the Museum of Fine Art. The flavors, the textures, the presentation, every seen-to detail. We frequent, and have never been disappointed. Every pastry is a harmonious composition, paying homage to the season in which its flavors are inspired. The carefully curated lo-fi music brings a dreamy vibe, along with the chatter of patrons in the echoey hall, which seems to shimmer in the morning's natural light, beaming it's way through all of the glass. You'll feel like you're dreaming from the first bite to the last.

Great pastries and great croissant products. Will be back. Recommended. Cons: no espresso drinks. Hope they add this to their repertoire. Would be even better. Will be back for sure!

Some of the best pastries I’ve had anywhere in the world. The best thing you can do for yourself is to visit this cafe in the Museum of Fine Art, order absolutely anything on the menu (special shout out to the pastries) and just sit in the beautiful hall overlooking the water. A must for anyone.

Best baked goods I’ve ever had in my life. The brunch menu is also to die for. Vibes are also immaculate, love the expansive location in the Fine Art museum & the calm music they play. Unmatched quality and creativity.

Blueberry Crumble Chai was spectacular. Perfect amount of blueberry/crumble/chai. Had various other pastries/drinks which were all great.

We ordered a cake for our small wedding celebration and it was perfect! The bakery was so communicative. I mentioned it was our wedding and they decorated it so beautifully!! I couldn’t imagine having such a gorgeous cake for the day. The chocolate flavor was also incredible. It made the day extra special and can’t wait for a reason to order from them again.

Beautiful pastries and delicious food. Their Turkish eggs are so flavorful and creamy. I do wish they had an expresso machine, though. But the drinks they serve are good too.

The Turkish Eggs changed my life. Absolutely phenomenal. I wasn't expecting a transcendental experience. This menu item is a masterpiece too.

Best bakery hands down in all of St. Pete. A genuine hidden gem. I’ve been multiple times and here are a few items I have gotten. Their pastries are exquisite. They mail the basics. There are one or two croissants where there was so much filling and toppings, it buried the delicate butteriness of our beloved pastry. Their breakfast items are lovely and lunch is great too. Drinks aren’t Bad and the decor is posh in a museum. Find them inside Museum of Fine Arts in DT St.Pete. Hours Thursday - Sunday 9 am - 3 pm You won’t be disappointed you stopped here.

Excellent bakery for those in search of unique and exquisite flavors. Set in the foyer of St. Pete's Museum of Fine Arts, it's a true hidden gem for baked goods. You won't have to pay to access the cafe. Service was friendly and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. Well worth a visit.

Absolutely beautiful atmosphere. Really nice vibe and the place is gorgeous. Completely recommend trying their pastries. Im a croissant fan and this was the best I’ve ever tried in tampa so far. Im happy i found this place. The only bad thing is that they don’t serve coffee. But completely worth trying.

The best place for croissants. The salted honey, almond and chocolate are delicious. I can’t wait to try the other pastries they have.

I would give 5 stars but they wouldn’t let me go upstairs to use the bathroom with the baby changing table in it. The bathrooms down stairs did not have changing tables in them, only the bathrooms upstairs. Not sure why they wouldn’t let me go up to change him. The food on the other hand is nothing like anything else st.pete has to offer. I got a cornflake cookie, a passion fruit cheesecake pastry, the cornbread breakfast special of the week, the yogurt with granola and the breakfast sandwich with sausage. All were absolutely out of this world! The cornbread breakfast had such deep rich flavors. The breakfast sandwich had elevated flavors and the pastries were unique. It was very crowded when we went. It was counter service and only 1 person was working the register. She was fast, knowledgeable and kind. I’ll be coming back for sure to try more things.

Incredible pastries of all kinds!

Coffee, pastries, matcha in a cute little modern café in Downtown St Pete

Pretty good croissant. Really great spot so chill and relaxing😌 It's little expensive but it's worth it.

Every time I visit, I want to buy one of everything! I've never had anything that didn't wow me here. I love that St. Pete has a pastry café of this caliber, even in our little medium sized city. Also, you can't beat the view! And their soups are always delicious!

What a lovely little bakery! Not only was the atmosphere very welcoming and inviting, but the service is amazing! People like Jamie will make you feel as if you’ve come to their home, excited for you to try all the amazing treats that they personally baked ( : which were extra yummy!!! We can’t wait to go back!

Amazing place! And the food and bakery are amazing! This is the real deal! We will be back!

Absolutely incredible every time. Food is perfect, staff are the most friendly! Every dollar spent here goes to great people. Love Love Love!!!

Still feels like a hidden gem for a super tasty lunch

What a treat to have such incredible food near home! The pastries are out of this world good as are the main dishes. The menu is thoughtful and creative, with a perfect balance of ingredients. Everyone on staff were lovely and the location inside the Fine Arts museum is the cherry on top. We’ll be back, often!

The FOOD! OMG. The setting: a vaulted warm inviting lobby area of the Florida fine arts musuem, the food and pastries assortment make it difficult to choose just one, light funky soulful music add to the ambiance, the staff completes the experience and makes it all the better. Jamie and Zeric are warm, inviting & engaging, The food and pastries are TRULY OUTSTANDING, varied, different, and excellent with creative flair and combinations you would not expect. I can't recommend this hidden gem enough based on our first ten experiences lol. Keep up the excellent work guys!!

WOW!! Did I mention wow?!?! We came in late morning on a Sunday. We had initially stopped at another local spot that was well reviewed. We left underwhelmed and wanting something else. Found this hidden gem on Google Maps. Upon approaching the cafe counter, my husband and I were delighted by the array of sweet and savory items in the display case. They have additional items on their menu. Zeric (sorry if misspelled) gave us a few recommendations. My hubby picked the carrot cake croissant and I picked the BLT with avocado, house aioli on housemade focaccia. Both were ON POINT!!! Both were so full of flavor - even the tomatoes on the sammie (a tough feat in FL!). Jamie (the manager) came out from the kitchen and had asked us how things were and we told her our honest opinion. We will be adding this spot to our foodie list that share with our clients, friends & family. Support local small businesses!! Cannot wait to come back!!

This charming cafe inside the Museum of Fine Arts is a gem. Amazing French pastries and desserts with delicious breakfast/ lunch options. The quiche had the best crust which is the downside of most quiche. The zucchini scone was just perfect. Get here early if you want a croissant. Everything looks amazing. It was hard to choose.

The pastry is exquisite, the details of the desserts are beautiful and it has flavored waters for customers

The chunk cookie is excellent, and the pistachio croissant is great.

Everything here is always so good, you can't go wrong.

The best bakery in the tampa bay/st pete area. Everything I've eaten here has been phenomenal from the savory pastries to the chocolate chip cookies. This place rivals some of the best french patisseries I've tried in NYC. Any time you want a croissant or a baked good, go here - you wont be disappointed.

The food, esthetic, staff, and location are simply outstanding. Paulina and team have created some of the most beautiful and delicious creations I’ve ever tasted. I’ve visited almost every weekend (sometimes more than once) since arriving in December. My waistline and budget don’t appreciate it, but my tastebuds and soul are in heaven. Run, don’t walk to Cafe Clementine.

Amazing selection of food and pastries. It's my favorite place to spend a nice weekend morning.

Awesome cakes, so delicious and fresh! We had a Persian love cake, raspberry croissant and cinnamon roll. Very nice ambiance. Yes, it is pricey, but is worth every cent. Will be back.

A charming bakery with delicious gourmet food.

Delicious pastries and coffee! Loved this cafe inside the Museum of Fine Arts. Our favorites were the morning bun and croissants, but everything we tried was amazing. We also enjoyed the turkish eggs dish and avocado toast.

Pastries are delicious, but 20+ minutes in line for a pastry and coffee because only 1 person is working the counter on a Sunday morning is ridiculous.

Best pastries in all of St. Pete! Great overall experience and friendly staff. Highly recommend!

INCREDIBLE pastries! I’m 60, have tasted and travelled far and wide and these pastries are excellent!
