This tiny cafe was close to our hotel, had good sandwiches. Space was tight, but you could eat outside which was a little more roomy. It was quite busy, not fancy, but reasonable and good.

Look no further: this is the spot to get a baguette. Get a "monge" for the government regulated price of a euro .20 and enjoy - and the Americans fear socialism - ha!

I don't understand the praises in the comments here. Me and my wife order a few different flavours and breads and the crusts were hard and dry, coffee way to strong, they offered a freshly squezed OJ wich was not as advertised or came on a prepackaged bottle. It might have been a bad day for them, but I wouldn't... More

I made a point to go here because of Tripadvisor and I'm glad I did! They have some of the best cookies I have ever tasted. The ingredients are top quality and you can taste it. We also had a baguette and a feuilletée au citron, all were delicious and so fresh! There are a few branches thoughout the city,... More

When you first enter this small place you don't know what to choose. During our 3 days in Paris we were there three time and took a different pastry each time. On last day morning be bought bread which survived a flight and gave us a bite of Paris in the evening :)

A good breakfast, but far away from a Continental one. The cookie is very, very good! Try the candies.

If you would like exceptional macarons, go to Gerard Mulot. Macarons here were not particularly nice; better than you'd get at home, I suppose, but I don't understand the praises in the comments here. I picked up a few different flavours and the crusts were particularly dry, and not in that nice crisp way. It might just have been a... More

We saw this place while strolling through the streets of Paris. We didn't have a plan to come here, but stopped by because I had heard some awesome things about it. I have two words for you CHOCOLATE TART. Oh my goodness it was soooo good. The flavors were so balanced. The prices were very reasonable in my opinion. We... More

I googled best breakfast and this place popped up. It was definitely the best breads and pastries I've had. It is not a sit down shop, nor do they serve espresso but it is incredible. You must try it.

On my first visit to Paris I saw a queue outside the bakery in the Latin Quarter. I decided to get into it out of curiosity. I discovered the best bread ever. Always visit when in Paris!!
