Common Bond Bistro & Bakery - Medical Center

This is a great bakery.
Their selection of croissants is top notch, and they look and taste amazing.
They’re also massive! We ordered 4 for the two of us to share and really could have just had one each.
No complaints there! Biggest reason I give it a 4 and not a 5 is that the seating is lacking: when we went it wasn’t super busy but yet there was like no seating available.
Maybe they want you to take it and go, but it’s not in the most walkable/accessible area for take out, so just a thought for those interested in dining in.
Overall, good spot!

Great coffee shop with a full breakfast, pastry, and lunch offerings.
We went last week for some late morning coffee and early lunch and were NOT disappointed. Buddies got the turkey sandwhich and the smoked salmon plate which they really enjoyed.
I ordered the salmon power bowl.
It was wonderful and really healthy yet filling.
It was a great start to my day and light enough for these horrific Houston summer days. Coffee was great and the service was awesome.
Excited to go back and try other things! Pastries looked amazing.

I have to brag about an employee that made my day.
I went in to buy my wife a chocolate chip cookie and some other pastries as we do on days we need to go to the hospital.
She has recently been fighting cancer and it’s a great reward for her.
The gentleman behind the desk was very caring and intentionally asked how I was doing.
He found a way to ask a little more than the commonalities we all use at restaurants and understood it was a bit of a harder day.
When he heard my wife had to have a procedure today, he immediately asked “does she like macaroons?” He absolutely made her day with a simple gesture and a couple of extra questions. Thank you so much for making both our days and just relating! I will always give this place my business and promote them.
(Also it’s easy because their pastries speak for themselves.)
