The 50 best desserts and snacks in Paris

If you’re in Paris, you must try this Legendary and Delicious Chocolate Emporium. There are many choices to choose from. I tried their hot chocolate. It was delicious but was too sweet for me to finish the large mug. The chocolate eclairs and the Mille feuille were crunchy and fresh. But my favorite was the Monte Blanc. See the photo. The Mont-Blanc from Angelina's in Paris is a signature Parisian dessert made of a meringue base, a light whipped cream filling, and topped with a mound of sweetened chestnut purée "vermicelli". Created at the beginning of the 20th century, its name comes from its resemblance to the snow-capped peak of Mont Blanc in the Alps. It was soooo Delicious. I had it every day during my trip. You must Not miss this special place in Paris. Prepare to wait for a table. Most of the times we took our order to go and ate them either in Jardin des Tuileries or in Jardins du Trocadéro over looking at the Eiffel Tower. I can’t wait to return soon.

Beautifully appointed elegant tea room right out of the 1900's. The tables and chairs have been in place since the 1920s, the gilded decor and antique mirrors lendifil of earlier times. The drinking chocolate was amazing! Breakfast was as well. Service was excellent. I would highly recommend!

Simply the best mont blanc in Paris (and probably worldwide). Always fresh and so unique. Exceptional hot chocolate too. Breakfast is good but expensive. Beautiful inside but there is usually a long queue. Either avoid peak hours or take away and enjoy in the Tuileries right across the street. One of the truly "incontournable" places in Paris.

Arrived on a Wednesday at 11am. There was no wait and we got seated right away. We were seated in the overflow room and not the main room. The hot chocolate was dark, silky and creamy. Also ordered a croque Madame that was devine. Bread toasted optimally. I preferred Angelina but the other memvmber though Carvette had the better hot chocolate.

I visited Angelina and honestly found it disappointing. It wasn’t worth the ten-minute wait to be seated, and the interior itself wasn’t particularly attractive once inside. One positive is that the location is excellent — it’s close to busy areas in Paris and very easy to get to. The service was good, which I appreciated. A downside for me was that they didn’t offer any alternative milks — only cow’s milk — which meant I couldn’t try the oat chai latte I’d gone specifically for. I ordered the Tarte Coco Passion, which was just okay, and the Golden Detox drink. The total came to €19.50, which felt steep for what I received. I’ve had far better experiences elsewhere, so I wouldn’t return. To avoid the queue just go in and get a take away cake and a hot chocolate! If you want to try!

This place is overrated. We had to wait in a queue for around 40 min. Then once we were in, the tables were too close to each other and you’re literally sitting with strangers. The brunch menu was standard nothing special. The hot chocolate was very nice and their pastries were too. But food wise, it was just standard.

We visited around 3 p.m. on a Sunday, and there was a bit queue, which we didn’t mind. We came specifically for their signature Mont Blanc. I’ve been enjoying this Mont Blanc for over 10 years whenever I visit Paris, but in my opinion, it used to taste better before. Now it’s served in a paper cup — convenient for takeaway, but it feels a bit cheap when dining in the salon, especially considering the €10.50 price. It’s worth trying at least once if you’ve never had it, but I’m not sure I’d come back for it next time.

Stohrer is absolutely charming! The interior feels authentically Parisian and full of character. Their pâtisseries are incredibly delicious — especially the passion fruit tart and their chocolate is simply mouthwatering. A must-visit for pastry lovers!

so good!!!!! It was our first time in the bakery so we just ordered what we thought might’ve been good. I loved the passionfruit desserts i got, they were my favorite ones. Macaroons were soft and chewy and I loved the flavors! The chocolate cake one was a bit too sweet but still 10/10!! I think the third one we got was a carmel thing which we didn’t like as much, the flavor was a bit too bland except for the crunchy shell of sugar. But again we were just randomly trying things, so overall everything was amazing! Will definitely come back again :) !!!

The chocolate babka was very rich and delicious. The other desert had a good amount of rum in it. No coffee or seating here though so find some other place nearby for it. Overall would recommend!

Exquisite lemon tart with good balance of tartness and sweetness Hazelnut Praline cake was excellent Although Stohrer is famous for their rum baba, it’s too alcoholic to my liking. It was drenched in rum syrup

Stohrer patisserie is the oldest patisserie in Paris, was founded in 1730 by King Louis XV’s pastry chef, Nicolas Stohrer. The store is beautiful, you should take a look if you’re around. Their patisseries look amazing, I tried raisins and nuts covered with chocolate and the chocolate eclair. Both were amazing 🤤 the quality of their ingredients is top classic. I bet all their offerings taste equally good.

The oldest pastry shop in Paris. What they do is classic but excecuted perfectly. You can taste the sugar and butter properly. Love it. A muat visit when in Paris. Would be great to have a place to sit but not a deal breaker.

I expect the palmier can be crispy but in fact it’s been a little bit oily. It’s probably because it’s been stored too long. I don’t like the taste of rum. I can’t believe a baba cost me 6.5 euro.

Single macaron € 2.9 I chose praline pistachio and the lovely staff recommended rose flavor one so I tried those two macarons. I usually don’t like desserts with flower scents but rose flavored macaron was so much better than I expected:) It didn’t smell like artificial things. I could see why she told me this one is their most famous one! And pistachio one was another level. If you like pistachio or other kinds of nuts, must try it! + the staff was extremely kind so even if I couldn’t speak French I’ve never gotten in trouble in making an ordering🥹❤️ Thank you so much!

The macaroons were lovely. I recommend the apricot, which is a seasonal flavor and Jardon which is one of their famous flavors. I would give five stars but they closed earlier than the time listed online which was disappointing

Our group each got one macaron to try first so we could taste the flavours before deciding what to buy. The macarons themselves were delicious, and one asian staff member who helped us was very friendly. However, another worker seemed to laugh at us for only getting one macaron each, making a comment to her coworker, which felt unnecessary and a bit condescending. It made the experience uncomfortable, even though two people in our group (who were served by the friendlier worker) still ended up purchasing boxes. A shame, as the macarons were genuinely great.

Exquisite desserts- the hazelnut mille feuille was outstanding. Macaroons are excellent, we had rose and bergamot and caramel butter. It is a must try if you’re in Paris. Beautifully presented as take aways and gifts.

Finished my dinner and had a desire for macaroon. Although i was pretty fill up with food, the craving for just one macaroon got the better of me. Google and found this place. Bought chololcate and passion fruit as per recommendation ( i think it is called Mogador), and brought it back to the hotel to savour with some wine. It is good. I will buy again, in larger quantity, if timing permits.

Very poor service to foreigners. We first came in and picked out a few macarons and chocolate for takeaway and the cashier lady re-confirmed :”That’s it?!” We were not happy but I have decided to try their pistachio panettone on my way out since we have traveled far to come here. The panettone cost $35 and it was so dense and tasted just like an ordinary orange blossom brioche. Apart from their macarons, I don’t recommend anything else.

Without a doubt, this was one of the most perfect desserts I've ever had. It was perfectly balanced, and the vanilla flavor was outstanding. I could definitely eat another one. And I'd love to try something else, too! They have croissants, macarons, and there were even some jarred fruit spreads. Yum! This place is so divine. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop in!

Hi, Everything here is simply delicious - every baked good made with heart and utmost care. The decor of the bakery is beautiful and unique, full of charm and atmosphere that makes you want to come back. The staff are smug, passionate and welcoming. If you're in the area, it's worth trying everything, as each product is a little culinary masterpiece. Definitely one of the best places I've had the chance to visit!

Du Pain et des Idées is a must-visit bakery located in Paris’s 10th arrondissement, one of the city’s most authentic and surprisingly safe neighborhoods, where you can still find some of the most affordable living compared to central Paris. The bakery itself dates back to 1875, and you can feel its timeless charm the moment you step in. But the real joy comes when you sit outside: right in front, there are wooden tables where you can enjoy their unforgettable croissants and the famous escargot pastry. A little tip – grab a coffee from the lovely café just next door, then settle down at the bakery’s outdoor tables for the perfect Parisian breakfast moment. This combination of history, flavor, and atmosphere makes it not just a bakery stop, but a true Paris experience.

Croissants were very good, coffee was good but probably a bit overpriced. We were lucky that there was a short queue only when we went but the line was long moments later. Seating limited - only some bench tables outside. We had the pain au chocolates and the pistachio escargot - would recommend both.

best pastries I’ve had in Paris! We got pastries from so many places during our stay in Paris, but this was hands down the best one we tried! I got the Pain Suisse and it was still warm and so flaky - butter and chocolate perfection! Going back for more as soon as possible, truly the best pastries in Paris!

Extremely overrated, another overhyped photogenic spot… After hearing all the good things about it on social media, we were so looking forward to trying their pistachio snail but only to be left with disappointment. Completely agree with the other comments that it’s soggy and flavourless. You could barely taste the pistachio. To be honest, you don’t have to make a trip just for a croissant in Pairs. In my experience, with boulangeries around every corner of Paris, just head to the closest one to your location. Those frequented by locals would always do better pastries than the popular touristy places

This pastry shop lives up to the hype. There was a short line around 10 a.m., but it moved quickly. Two communal tables are available outside for seating. Several varieties of pastries lined the counter, with a special shout-out to the pistachio escargot and flan. My friend got the fig pastry and couldn’t stop raving about it the entire trip. If it were closer to our hotel, we would have visited daily.

This is a true bakery. They don’t have dairy they don’t have any kind of meat, just coffee and products of flour. There are also lots of bees inside, which makes me think that this place is extremely clean. The staff was also extremely friendly. I wish them the best.

A Glimmer of Parisian Grandeur on the Champs-Élysées Amidst the bustle of the Champs-Élysées, Ladurée’s flagship salon offers a serene retreat, a pastel jewel box that feels indulgently Parisian. While the avenue brims with global commerce, stepping inside transports you to a world of elegance and charm. The recent renovations have enhanced its timeless appeal, blending Belle Époque sophistication with modern comfort. The ornate interiors now feel warmer and more inviting, perfect for afternoon tea or a leisurely lunch. Of course, the stars are the macarons. Each delicate bite — whether the floral rose or the indulgent salted caramel — balances crispness with tender sweetness, a hallmark of Ladurée’s craft. The pastries are no less impressive, miniature works of art that delight both the eyes and the palate. Though often labeled a tourist pilgrimage, the attentive service and consistently superb quality elevate the experience well beyond cliché. Ladurée remains a place to savor not just French patisserie, but a touch of Parisian perfection, right on the world’s most famous avenue.

Wow! I had high expectations for the macarons but was stunned by the beauty of the shop. They have curated this location so beautifully; you are in a dream being there! The Macarons were the perfect mix of slight crunch on the outside and soft, yummy inside. None of the flavors tasted artificial, and my favorite was the passionfruit. This is a must stop location in Paris.

Ladurée is a truly enchanting Parisian café. We tried their macarons and coffee here, but the experience goes far beyond that, the atmosphere itself is captivating. The setting is elegant and charming, and the macarons are absolutely delicious. To be honest, I’ve had macarons of similar quality in Türkiye as well, but the ambiance here makes everything feel more special and refined. Places like this are not just about taste- the whole experience comes together as one. It’s definitely a spot that deserves a place on your Paris list.

Very nice place, very cute french vibes. They have a restaurant, we didnt eat there. Its expensive. On the side door you can stand in line for the macrons. They use jam and not frosting, they were the best you will ever try most likely. Worth it to try. They have probably about a dozen or so flavors. You get a nice box with your purchase. They serve hot drinks and other sweets we didnt try them.

I honestly expected this place to be a big tourist trap, but the truth is I really loved it. Yes, we had to wait in line to be seated, but it was absolutely worth it. The food was delicious – we ordered avocado toast, a burrata salad, a cocktail, and hot chocolates. Everything was beautifully prepared, and the hot chocolates were simply incredible! The service was excellent as well – attentive, professional, and very welcoming, which made the experience even better. To top it all off, we picked up some macarons at the end to take home as gifts, and they were delightful. Overall, it turned out to be a wonderful experience, much better than I had anticipated. Definitely a spot worth visiting!

Lauderee Paris is a MUST if you are visiting "The City of Lights" I highly reccomend the tea expérience, and their hot chocolate ! I was stunned at how delicous the Chocolat Chaud was! It was even better than "Angelina's" steaming beverage! Make certain to make réservations first, they do get quite busy. The staff is all very friendly and the atmosphère and ambiance are phénoménal. A small slice of Heaven on Earth!

A Glimmer of Parisian Grandeur on the Champs-Élysées Amidst the bustling grandeur of the Champs-Élysées, Ladurée's flagship salon continues to offer a delightful respite, a vibrant pastel jewel box that transcends mere retail. While the avenue itself can be a whirlwind of global commerce, stepping into Ladurée is to be transported to a softer, more indulgent Paris. The recent renovations have only enhanced its timeless appeal, with the refreshed interiors offering a charming blend of classic elegance and modern comfort. The delicate hues and ornate details still evoke the Belle Époque, yet the flow feels more inviting, more attuned to the leisurely pursuits of an afternoon tea or a relaxed lunch. And then, of course, there are the macarons. These diminutive confections, a hallmark of the house, remain as exquisite as ever. Each bite is a whisper of flavor — from the subtle floral notes of rose to the rich depth of salted caramel – encased in that inimitable crisp shell and yielding, tender interior. Beyond the famed macarons, the pastries are miniature works of art, almost too beautiful to consume, yet utterly irresistible. While some might consider Ladurée a pilgrimage for tourists, its enduring quality and the impeccable, attentive service suggest otherwise. It is a place where one can truly savor the art of French patisserie, a small pocket of perfection that, even on the world's most famous avenue, feels uniquely, wonderfully Parisian.

Yummy ice cream, I would definitely recommend getting their cream based flavours over their sorbets. I've tried their salted caramel and wild strawberry, and I must say the former is really delicious. It's not too sweet and has a very fragrant caramel taste. The strawberry flavour wasn't as impressive, it tasted a bit artificial to me. Queues can get pretty long, so I wouldn't bother to get the ice cream here if that's the case. I do think it's worth a try if there is a short queue though!

I came here with high expectations after reading so many glowing reviews, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to the hype. The place does offer an impressive variety of flavors — probably around 20 — which is great if you like options. However, beyond the wide selection, the ice cream itself was not particularly special. The texture and taste were just okay, nothing that stood out or felt memorable. It’s not a bad spot, but definitely not the must-try experience I was hoping for.

Suggested by a local, I had wanted to visit this place for a long time and now was finally the time! The wild strawberry ice cream is a must-try, but you can only order it during its season. We ordered it with whipped cream that should have been topped with fresh wild strawberries. However, they only serve those on certain days, so we received raspberry on top instead, but it was still good and fresh! If you have time, I recommend dining in, as you won't need to wait in line.

Fantastic ice cream on Isle St Louis. Great selections inside of a beautiful shop. The island is a beautiful place to stroll right near Notre Dame

One of the best iconic ice cream spots around! The flavors are rich and smooth, and the sorbets are incredibly refreshing. The raspberry rose sorbet is absolutely to die for – fragrant, tangy, and perfectly balanced. A must-try if you’re an ice cream lover.

Hate to say it but the hype is real here… I took peach, mandarine and yaourt with yuzu, while my partner took chocolat, vanille and coco. All the flavors were insanely good but particularly the mandarine - I ordered another scoop of this flavor just because it blew me away from the first taste. Perfect service too. They served our ice cream with a little crispy caramel almond wafer that was so delicious and a perfect palate cleanser. Queued for about 20 mins in the middle of a hot summer day to get into the tea room but it was so worth it!! (The queueing area is well shaded so no worries about getting sunburnt too)

My most favorite place for ice cream in Paris, flavors are rich and delicious, just pick the flavors you want, wouldn’t be disappointed. Salted butter caramel, cassis and pistachio are my picks

I have limited experience with crepes, but these buckwheat savory crepes were exceptionally delicious. They were light and the fillings were well-balanced. The menu was extensive, offering a wide variety of choices. I highly recommend the caramelized apple dessert crepe; it alone would be reason enough for a return visit. Our bill for six crepes, two teas, and two macchiatos was approximately 110€.

I took a 40-minute walk to this cafe from my hotel and it was worth it. It is in the Temple District, near the National Archives. Much to see along the way there. The place is rather small and seating cozily close. Service was warm. I had the Complete galette for dinner and it was delicious. It was downed with a Breizh Cola 👍🏻. Although I was close to full, I succumbed to the temptation of a sweet crepe to finish off my meal. I had the thick crepe with honey and vanilla butter. The thick crepe was soft and the vanilla butter tasted great. A meal with the walk effort 😍

Second time to visit because the first time (two years ago) was so exceptional! The best selection of crepes and galettes in Paris! We shared one savory and one sweet selection between the two of us. Service was excellent; location is great!

We had an amazing experience at Breizh Café! We ordered a variety of savory galettes and assorted sweet crêpes. Each one was absolutely delicious, with perfectly crisp textures and fresh, flavorful fillings. We also shared a jar of their apple cider, which paired beautifully with everything on the table. The quality, presentation, and authentic Breton flavors made this one of our most memorable meals in Paris. Portion is very big. The space has a warm, cozy atmosphere with friendly staff and a great vibe. Tip: Be sure to reserve in advance and arrive on time—this place fills up quickly, and it’s easy to see why. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience top-notch crêpes in Paris!

Had what I think is the best meal I had during my stay in Paris here, it was that good. We went there for breakfast and had no reservation, it was no problem. We ordered different galettes and they were all great; although the very best one wasn’t on the permanent menu, but rather in the chalkboard with the ‘galettes du moment’. It was the Dame Tartin, which had caramelized apples, caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream and chantilly cream. It was divine, heavenly, it may actually be the best thing I’ve tasted in my entire life, no exaggeration. It was so good that we ordered it twice despite already being satisfied and could barely more afterwards. It was that good.

The cafe is attached to the restaurant on the corner, but it’s a lot more quiet here, which was nice. The crepe with the caramelized onions was delicious, paired with a glass of the Brut Cider. The service can be a hit or a miss though; the server was standoff-ish and rude at first, and then we witnessed another server escorting out a family of 3 (I think it’s mandatory to each order a crepe and they didn’t want to??)

I love Breih café en général. The salted caramel crepe blew my mind the first time I had it. But this location in the Marais was a total fail. Horrible service, in fact the worst I've had in Paris. The food was so-so (the crepes were soggy) and everything took an interminable amount of time. It was not crowded at all, so it was unclear what the ongoing hold up seemed to be. The head waiter seemed to have an issue with bringing menus to the interior customers as if that was above his pay grade. We waited forever for dessert menus as well. Enfin, he made me get up and walk to his station to pay, whereupon others seemed to get their check brought to their table. To add insult to injury, he then prompted me to tip on the check. That's a first. My tip? Skip this place and try a different location.

I recently enjoyed brunch at Carette at Place du Trocadéro, and it lived up to its reputation. The food was delicious—flaky pastries, fresh croissants, and their famous rich hot chocolate with chantilly cream were spot-on and exactly what I expected from a classic Parisian café. The service was smooth despite the busy vibe, and the location near the Eiffel Tower added to the charm. However, be prepared for a long line, especially during peak times. If you’re short on time, plan accordingly or consider visiting during off-hours. Overall, a solid brunch spot worth visiting if you can handle the wait.

The loveliest experience at Carette all round.. definitely worth the hype if you’re thinking about it! Firstly the food was just incredible including the infamous hot chocolate and cream! The staff were so lovely, particularly Sandra and Chhay! Thank you for making it special for my mother’s birthday and for your kindness! You truly made our trip to Paris special ☺️ and I will definitely be coming back in December!

This place is totally worth the hype. Waited 60 mins to get in and i would do it again thats how much i liked this place. Great selection for breakfast, amazing hot chocolate, the best croissant, and jams that are the best i have tasted. Try the raspberry tart....its simply amazing.

Visited Carette Paris and loved the aesthetic right away. The vibe is elegant but still cozy, making it such a nice first stop in the city. The line was quite long and if you’re dining as two, you’ll need to order individual beverages. They serve generous portions for both food and drinks. The bread was a bit too sweet for me and the tuna sandwich was just okay. I think we could have picked better from the menu. But the hot chocolate was on point, rich and comforting, and honestly worth the wait. 🍫✨

Carette sits in one of the best locations in Paris a picture-perfect spot where people stroll by slowly, and everything feels straight out of a postcard. I went there mainly for the atmosphere and the famous hot chocolate that everyone seems to talk about. To be fair, the hot chocolate is good thick, rich, and comforting, especially on a cold day. It’s one of those things that instantly makes you feel like you’re in Paris. But beyond the view and the drink, I couldn’t help feeling that Carette is a bit overrated. The place carries this reputation of elegance and charm, but when you sit there and actually experience it, the service doesn’t quite live up to the name. The team feels a bit too busy, sometimes even dismissive, and that makes the whole visit feel less warm than it should. It’s not that it’s bad, but there’s this sense that they rely too much on their location and fame instead of focusing on how guests are treated. Maybe that’s part of the Paris café experience a bit of attitude served with your chocolate. I’d still say it’s worth a visit once, especially if you want the Parisian postcard moment, but I wouldn’t rush back. Sometimes beauty alone doesn’t make the best experience.

Interesting experience - stylish, beautiful interior and a cozy place to visit, but way too crowded. Were waiting in queue for over 30 minutes. Food is tasty and looks nice, although not as exceptional as you could imagine when looking at the queue outdoors. Portions could be bigger for the price. The service is average as well - waiters are rushing for a quick turnaround. Overall, seems like a bit overvalued place, would give a chance for other places nearby or on smaller streets.

Carette deserves its reputation. The hot chocolate here is not a drink. It is practically a dessert on its own. Thick enough to coat the spoon, silky, dark, and balanced - not the sugar bombs you get in most cafés. It arrives with a generous bowl of whipped cream, lightly sweetened, and genuinely addictive. We ordered madeleines on the side, still warm, and dipping them into the hot chocolate felt almost ceremonial. The setting adds to the experience: classic Parisian interiors, gold accents, mirrors, whispered conversations, and a slow, elegant rhythm. The service was polite and unhurried, exactly what you want in a place like this. If you’re looking for a quintessentially Parisian café moment, this is the place.

We are absolutely in love with these choux. We used to live in Paris and now live in Thailand — yet these are the pastries we still talk about all the time. This week, during our trip back to France, we made a special stop in Paris just to have them again. Every flavor is delightful and distinct — rich, balanced, and full of character. The perfect harmony of puff, cream, and frosting. It’s hard to put into words how much we adore them. Truly one of the things we miss most about Paris.

While this is a new take on Choux pastries, I couldn't shake the feeling that it was a mix of macaron and Choux that I was indulging in. Perhaps it's due to its petite size, but it's incredibly convenient to eat, especially if you're not looking to indulge too much. I tried the Choux of the day, which had a delightful hint of pineapple and mango. It was tasty, although I found there to be a bit too much cream for my liking. My absolute favorite, however, was the Pomme Tatin. It was beautifully flavored and perfectly balanced. Well done!

The first time I had choux from Popelini was in 2022. They were so good then and still are today in 2025. The cream filling of each of the flavors are well pronounced without being too intense. The texture of the cream is smooth and almost velvety, not so dense that it feels heavy in your mouth. There's a good enough amount of soft crust for you to chew while savouring the cream with each bite.

We chose the passion fruit and cafe latte. The flavor largely comes from the crème in the choux. I would recommend to go with tangy/tart flavors after trying both. A reviewer said they are small. It’s true that I could hold both in 1 hand. I think they are the perfect size for a little sweet treat without feeling guilty. I wished the choux was a little more crisp like Beard Papa cream puffs.

Yes ! Try it !!!!! I Like it ，small and not over sweet and just right. I think I can eat few pcs in one time. Many options so you will find what you like ! Again, try it !! 🩷

Delicious choux filled with various flavours! Personally I preferred the 'caramel beurre salé', coffee and passion fruit! Take away boxes are nice and everything is definitely instagramable, but some might find 2.50€ a piece is rather salty!

Simply lovely and delicious. Really want to go back and try all those flavors. The seller is super nice. Thanks to her, the whole 3 mins in-store experience is truly pleasant. I wish all sellers in Paris were like her!

We bought two croissants for 6€ each, which in my opinion is a really good price as the store is located in the galerie la fayette. The croissants were really delicious but you could taste they were not really fresh, maybe it's because we bought them at 12am. The worker was really welcoming, spoke fluent english and there wasnt even a queue.

Beautiful place inside the galleries lafayatte grocery building (across the road from the main shopping center) . Their éclairs are to die for! Can't go wrong with the salter caramel butter flavor

Coming in to the gourmet section of the galeries lafayette is a treat (pun intended). Loved the flavour of the yuzu meringue éclair and the chocolate and pistachio. They lacked a crispy shell hence the 4 rather than 5 stars.

The most popular and perfect place to enjoy éclairs in Paris! They had an incredible variety of éclairs that looked like true works of art. I chose the caramel one, and both the pastry and the filling were unbelievably delicious. A must-try experience!

Looks good and tastes good but clearly have some hygiene issues. Both my wife and I got food poising after consuming their eclairs. For that price, you’re much better off spending a bit more a getting some exceptionally high quality stuff at Cedric Grolet.

We got 3 eclairs here. Our favorite was the passion fruit, the flavor was so good and punchy. The other 2, tiramisu and raspberry were also very good

Phenomenal eclairs! Super fresh. Amazing ingredients. Nice size. Beautiful shop in the Gallery Lafayette Gourmet on Haussmann. The Greek gentleman that served us, was great. He spoke English perfectly, was friendly and helpful. We’ll be going back to visit him soon!

Chocolates were fine, 9 small pieces for 14euros is obviously expensive but theres some complexity The caramel though, 22euros for this small bag is simply crazy. 135euros per kg The taste is quite unique, although it's really not incredibly good. It's like hard caramel candy mixed with soft chewy candy, it's almost half liquidy in how malleable it is. The taste is interesting too, on top of the usual caramel taste there's another hint, although again it's definitely not good enough to warrant the price. Not sure why it's so popular, if you must come here, maybe try one or two caramels at most, definitely don't get the whole bag. For reference pictured costs me 37euros. Ridiculous

I have no issue with shops closing for summer vacation, but to walk across Paris for 45 minutes in 34c heat as my son wanted to go to this shop after watching YouTube videos to discover its closed is unacceptable and frankly arrogant on the basis you can't be bothered to update Google maps with shop opening times. A simple task to do, and shows courtesy.

Easily the most beautiful heavenly chocolatier. Gorgeous and delicious jellies so fresh and vibrant tasting. And those caramels, buttery and soft, rich and delicious. But wait, the chocolate! Complex fine fresh, deep flavors. The staff could not have been nicer. We made a few small purchases and they were kind patient and so helpful.

We were walking around North Marais and walked into this well known chocolate shop to sample their chocolates and caramels. Needless to say they were just perfect

Love the pate de fruit. Was so sad to learn that the cafe portion of the shop closed years ago. Still worth a stop for the pate fruit and caramels.

This place is RIDICULOUS! I've gone in twice and had to wait forever. The chocolate buying process is so slow and they have two people at most working there. Nothing is worth waiting the times you are required to wait for a product. No issue with salespeople. Issue with how cheaply the very expensive store is run. You can't have a big store with a product that takes a long time to prepare and have only two salespeople. Or you can, but you're going to lose a lot of business. I have no plans to return.

Nicey but pricey! We visited this shop and after much deliberation we bought the fruit jellies and caramels. We selected 1 of each flavour and our bill came to around €24! They were delicious - but I am just not sure that they were worth that much money..........

This bakery was highly recommended so we gave a try and tasted the croissants, the Canele and a couple cakes and everything was delicious. I don’t think is the best croissant I tried in France but you can tell is above average and among the best.

I saw the cafe in a YouTube video and was worth the visit. One of the best croissant and pain au chocolate I have ever had. The size is super big and you can taste the rich butter flavour. Prizes are super cheap. I highly recommend

Visited this local gem tucked on a side street by a park. You can either sit outside the bakery or walk across the park & enjoy your treasures. This bakery was highly recommended by a food critic & locals. The place has quality products from baguettes to their scrumptious pistachio/chocolate pastry(can’t remember the name!). I took a day trip the following day & made sure I had their pastries on board! A definite stop if you visit Paris; you will need the metro to get here though.

Average prices. The staff wasn't very friendly, but they were attentive. We asked for a Croque Monsieur. They brought it burnt, but we had to replace it. The croissant was like a pastry, soft, and not as delicious as I expected. A complete disappointment. The eclairs were good. They gave a customer who came after us a toast wrapped in foil that had fallen on the floor. It was far below my expectations.

They speak English here and were friendly. We got the croissant and pain au chocolat; the croissant wasn’t the best we had, but it was still good. It had layers but it wasn’t crunchy and all that buttery. The pain au chocolate was the better of the two; had a nice crunch to it. I don’t know how much the drinks were individually but I got a latte and an orange juice for about 9 euros. The orange juice was freshly squeezed and delicious - highly recommend you get it.

Ble Sucre is one of the most famous bakeries in Paris. It is a small outlet where you can enjoy delicious French style pastries. I had the chance to try the croissant and the chocolate croissant, which cost around 95 cents. I also tried the pain au chocolat, priced around 2 to 3 euros. Everything tasted wonderful and made for a perfect breakfast. The croissant was light, slightly sweet, and very satisfying. After having it, you will feel energized enough to explore the city for hours.

We were on vacation from the United States & are so happy we made it to Blè Sucre! We loved their handmade chocolate croissant, pastries, cappuccinos, lattes, & thick creamy hot chocolate. They were friendly and helpful. This was a recommendation and it did not disappoint! Great way to start your day! ☕️🥐

I love this bakery with all my heart ❤️ I go there every chance I get. All the small desserts are amazing, from the big cakes I love the white raspberry cake 🎂 I've been getting it for years. Definitely recommend trying some of their sweets!! Just grab one dessert and sit in the nearby cafe with coffee, it's the best! Or park just across the pâtisserie BUT I DON’T recommend ordering additional drawings on the cake 😂🥲 Don't get me wrong - I appreciate the work and effort that might go into this, but I had slightly different expectations. Below I've attached a picture of what I ordered and what I got. Not bad, but yeah, haha. However the cake was delicious!! 🤤

We were strongly recommended this pâtisserie by a local shop owner in the Montmare area. So of course we HAD to try it. The deserts are amazing! They look unreal and taste even better. The strawberry macarons were drool worthy and obviously freshly made there in the shop. Would 100% recommend a visit here if you’re in or close to the neighborhood!!

Absolutely unbelievable mind-boggling life-changing pastry. And he's a good dude too! Very affable and humble yet proud and delighted, as he should be. Un bon mec

Visited 2022. Delicious and worth going for high quality patisserie dessert items. The flavors were very delicate and went well together.

A local favorite recommended by residents. Everything looks beautiful, and I chose the éclair, which was visually stunning — I didn’t even know where to start! The cream was smooth and not too sweet, truly a blissful treat.

The pastries are almost as beautiful as they are delicious. The flavors are balanced and multilayered. It’s like trying to pick your favorite child, try them all and enjoy the exploration and journey.

We were experiencing serendipity to get to this place being pastry lover. We were in the area and attracted to buy pastries from Carl Marletti because of the long queue. My favourite is the Belle-Helene tart. OMG! It might be the best pastry I have tried in my life. Such a complexity of flavours: the chocolate almond cream and poached pear create amazingly tasty contrast in fruity and sweet tastes. We tried the Feather that was also great and the caramel eclair. They didn't had everything because it was December 31st. But it worth going back to Paris to enjoy these amazing original pastries. I will get huge box of pastries next time! If you are visiting Paris definitely worth going here. Thank you for providing such a great pleasure!

A slice of Parisian heaven right in Paris! Patisserie Sadaharu Aoki Paris captivates with its elegant ambience and an array of exquisite pastries. The attention to detail in every pastry is extraordinary. From the delicate flavors to the artistic presentation, each bite feels like a journey to the heart of Parisian patisserie excellence. Whether you're a connoisseur or just looking for a sweet escape, this place is a sensory delight. Unparalleled elegance and flavors that linger on your palate!

We come here every visit for chocolates and desserts. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The desserts are always just amazing. We love everything matcha.

Best Chou à la crème I’ve ever tasted. Not exaggerating at all. We bought macaron and tarte de citron too. It was really really good. Sure the price is higher than others but it’s worth every penny. Staff was friendly too. Store was quite small but they have good selection of some famous kind of French dessert such Paris Brest, éclair, millefeuille etc. Would definitely coming back and try others

An Asian twist to the French dessert. You can find flavors like green tea, black sesame, wasabi, and more.

The sales is wrong. Their Japanese style is as sweet as French cake, if not sweeter. And note that matcha is very bitter. So if it already tastes overwhelmingly sweet, then this cake must contain an enormous amount of sugar.

I tried a red bean matcha, a lemon praline, and a matcha almond croissant. All were super good. Wanna go back and try them all!

Great simplistic designed dessert shop. Very nice range of desserts. Bought the macaron box of 16 for €27.20 which is very well worth it. Plus received a free dark chocolate macaron gift for purchasing. Would go again, merci beaucoup. :)

Came in there and they were very pushing. The staff was unkind, and charged us too much on purpose. The food was decent, not too overprices, not cheap

Here for tgtg, lovely neighborhood shop!

Absolutely horrendous, money-hungry staff that put pressure to order, behind the relaxed environment are insidous staff.

You better come hungry - paris Brest is the home of the paris Brest - you get her a better one (by the book) - and invite someone to share it with you too :) Highly recommended !

The food, atmosphere and service are all top notch. Be prepared to pay 1-2€ more than equivalent bakeries in the area per item but the product is very good!

Pretty bad experience. The blonde girl in the morning is not nice with foreigners. If you are foreigners and do not know how to speak French go to Lidl next to the gas station. It’s cheaper and they will value your money

Very delicious pastries, very good coffee nice place with rainy weather.

Omg! The croissants, pains au chocolat and pains au raisin are heavenly! Also bought the lemon tarts/cake for my boyfriend’s birthday and it was so good!!! Best patisserie in the neighbourhood!

I love the pastries here equinoxe is my favorite. A little pricey but they’re the best pastries I’ve had while in Paris!

My daughter's friend found this place near the hotel Elysees Union where we stayed for our trip in Paris. The pastries here are extremely tasty and the crusts are excellent. We had mostly croissants, chocolate and custard filled pastries. We had them practically every morning. The prices are quite reasonable.

I tried the chausson aux pommes after reading other reviews. The pastry was flaky and appetizing but the filling was puree which I didn’t prefer as I don’t like the texture of apple sauce.

La Pâtisserie Cyril Lignac exceeded all expectations during our visit! 🍰 From the delectable Le Tigre to the flaky croissant, indulgent chocolatine, and irresistible madeleine, every pastry we sampled was simply divine. 😍 It's no wonder this establishment boasts such high ratings – the quality and taste are truly exceptional! 🌟 Whether you're a local or a visitor, a trip to La Pâtisserie Cyril Lignac is an absolute must for anyone with a sweet tooth.

This place has a very very good croissant, one of the best in Paris!!! I visited this place two years after watching a video from Alex The French Guy on YouTube, really good video of Paris’ best croissants! Not only was the croissant but excellent, you must also try “Le Tigre” pastry, it was absolutely delicious!!!!

I had seen many reviews for this Pâtisserie and was a little skeptical thinking if it's just a hype. But definitely not! It maybe a little expensive considered to other places but it is a must try! Staff was also very friendly and explained the flavours of the cakes on display. I bought a cake for 6, which was their signature, must try cake and yes it was delicious! I was too tempted to try out the other mini versions as well and they were all really tasty. Must try in Paris! 👍

This is my second time visiting Odette pastry shop in Paris, and I enjoyed it both times. I like that the pastries are creamy and fresh, the prices are fair, and the location is great. The only thing I didn’t like was the tablet on top of the pastry, which was a bit too sweet for me. Still, it’s definitely worth trying when in Paris, and it’s very close to Notre Dame.

After visiting Notre Dame, you’ve got to treat yourself to these cream puffs. They come in a variety of delicious flavours. The choux pastry is a bit on the hard side, but perhaps that’s the French way. And it still tastes good overall. The service was friendly and welcoming making it a delightful little stop after sightseeing.

We ordered the Raspberry and Passionfruit Choux. The textures were nice, a lightly crisped exterior with soft interior. We preferred the raspberry over the passionfruit but wish the flavours in both were stronger.

Odette truly impressed with the way they crafted their pastry — the texture was spot-on, perfectly balanced between light crispness on the outside and a tender, delicate bite inside. I opted for the chocolate flavor, and it was absolutely divine. The filling was intensely rich, velvety, and generously packed, so every bite delivered pure indulgence without feeling overwhelming. You could really taste the quality of the ingredients and the care put into making it. It’s the kind of treat that lingers in your memory long after the last bite.

Beautiful small cafe with the most delicious cream puffs. 10 flavors to choose from and all are perfection. My favorite was the pistachio and the caramel and praline.

The best choui cookies in the city. We liked all aromas very much. Coffee was also good. The ambiance is very cool. You see the Notre Dame and drink your coffee. Perfect!

Very tasty dessert to go. I recommend this patisserie, you can try a choux on your way to Notre Damme

Cute little glacé store near Le Marais area 4th arrondissement of Paris. The ice cream options is quite varied and you can combine it with ice cream and sorbet as well. Me tried their famous almonds and combine with carrots and ginger sorbet. It tastes great sourly, acid and tangy and spicy a bit, then I can indulge myself with the the sweetness of vanilla and almonds crunchy. The service not really friendly staffs they’re not smiling at all both the server and the cashier ones.

Good ice-cream and ice-cream cake. I only tried classic flavours for ice-cream such as matcha and sesame and I love it! For the cake, I recommend Josephine!

Best ice cream that I had in Paris, the pistachio with orange blossoms was super tasty and fresh, the chocolate was good too. There were different variations to choose from and the desserts looked yummy too.

Best ice cream in the world!!! I have travelled to many countries and I can tell you that this is possibly one of the best ice creams in the world. I’ve never seen ice cream cakes that were made so beautiful and meticulous. The only downside is that they have no seat 🥲 so you have to eat it outside on the side walk which is very French. Other than that it’s worth a trip to get the best ice cream cake ever!

I’d say it’s one of the best ice creams in Paris. The texture is excellent, definitely worth trying the chocolate and vanilla.

The flavors are interesting but that’s about it. It’s not the best ice cream you will ever have. Be careful here how they charge you. Make sure you pay attention to the prices especially if you are paying for several all together. They think if you are in a big group you won’t notice that they overcharge because of the noise and feeling rushed by the long line.

Had to wait for 10-15 min to get the dessert after we asked and they said they don’t have it. We asked for another one and then again the same story. Seems like workers need to know what they have in the store before making people wait

I was gifted a set of dark chocolate macarons from this place. They were all superb, so I had to go find this place when I visited Paris! Honestly, this is a paradise for dark chocolate lovers! I tried their Dark Venezuelan Chocolate “Tonka” Cake and their Dark Cameroon Chocolate “Douala” Cake. Both very delicious but I prefer the latter. The staff were really lovely and helpful. I would go back again for sure!

Famous chocolate shop in Paris. I tried the macaroons and they were fabulous. I regret not getting any chocolate that day, but it gives me a reason to go back someday, which is always a good thing.

I could have bought everything in the shop! Everything is so tempting. Friendly and useful staff will help you make a choice. Worth entering the courtyard to discover some of the best chocolates on offer in Paris.

I decided to come in to get a gift before leaving Paris for my parents. The interior decor of the store is beautiful. The staff were helpful and friendly and helped me pick out something. Definitely recommend if you're looking for quality.

Super good macarons!!

One of my favourite chocolate shop. Very warm, friendly service. best chocolate shop

The chocolate here is always beautiful. It's fun to choose different flavors of chocolate.

One of the best boulangerie I’ve ever been to. As a sesamephile and yuzu lover, this place brought together three loves: pastry, sesame, and citrus. The yuzu sesame flan was sublime. Flan was not too sweet, had good black sesame depth, and yuzu was perfectly present. I had croissant as a litmus test and comp to other bakeries: 10 outta 10. Staff is friendly and let me order in terrible French. Coffee is okay but you’re not here for that.

good but not amazingly good, the apple turnover was too heavy with not much of the fillings, croissant was good, but the outside can be more crispy, and sesame roll is a bit sweet for me, and lack of sesame flavor, the baguette was with a sour flavor. there was a line but moved fast.

I went here because of social media. There was a bit of a line and a wait around 1 pm on a Sunday. I ordered the apricot pastry, which was good. Very flaky. Because of the line, I really didn't have time to browse and make a proper selection. The bakery was rather small and no place to sit, that is saw. There is no outdoor seating. I would return if in the area.

We visited Boulangerie Utopie a few times while in Paris in an attempt to try the black sesame roll. We went at 10:45 AM during our first visit on a Tuesday and they were sold out. We got to try a lot of items due to the multiple visits. We went around 7:30 AM on our other visits and the bakery cases were full and most of the pastries we got were still warm. Note that they don't serve sandwiches in the morning. Apple turnover - really flakey and full of apples. Be prepared for crumbs. Croissant - good all butter croissant Pain Au Chocolat - good pain au chocolat Sesame Roll - great for black sesame lovers Cinnamon Roll - wasn't bad but wouldn't need to get this again Pain Suisse - good Almond Pistachio Croissant - good Fig Tart - really pretty but the fig flavor was mild Pecan Dome - good Mini Black Sesame Madelines - skip, not a super strong black sesame flavor and a bit dry

I was on the hunt for the best croissant in Paris, and not only did I find it, I also found the best baguette. But the word is out — there was a line behind me twelve or thirteen deep. Had adorable Halloween croissants, too.

Best croissant in Paris IMO. Croissant with the right amount of flakiness, buttery yet not overly so, not doughy yet retaining that right amount of breadiness. Tried a few famous bakeries known for their croissants and Utopie was my favorite hands-down. A croissant only cost about 1.7 euros (or something around that). In comparison, another famous bakery not too far away was charging 3.8 euros per croissant (and that one was tasteless ironically).

One of the best bakeries in Paris! Fresh, high-quality pastries, standard prices, and very little waiting time. Highly recommended for breakfast or a sweet break during the day.

Omg. We ran into this place by pure accident after lunch. We were stuffed from lunch, we even had dessert, but we had a third stomach to wolf down the treats from this place. What a gem with great chocolate chip brioche and meringue fluffy bite sized dessert. We are still dreaming of this and will go back tomorrow for breakfast to eat on the street. I will post more pictures tomorrow. We devoured the food before taking pictures.

Visited this place twice during my stay in Paris. I tried the meringue chocolate and it was the perfect dessert, totally enjoyable. Second time tried the chocolate bread which they call "Cranique" I think or something close and this is a great pastry with moist tasty chocolates. They have also with raisins. It's very big though and can be easily shared between two persons. They have multiple branches across Paris, so check which is within your itinerary and go for it.

A truly great bakery experience! One of the highlights is being able to watch the team prepare the fresh brioches right in front of you — it adds a special touch to the visit. Whatever you do, don’t miss the large sugar brioche while it’s still warm — it’s an absolute WOW. Soft, slightly crisp on the outside, and perfectly sweet. Pure heaven. A must-visit spot for pastry lovers in Paris!

We were walking past and smelled the amazing brioche being baked. We had never tried a merveilleux before so we got their classic chocolate flavor. It was delicious! They are so pretty and taste wonderful. The staff was also nice and helpful to us. Definitely recommend!

Must-have meringue desserts! They are light, airy and flavorful! It was a unique dessert that is perfectly and expertly executed. Beautiful shop with a helpful staff.

During our recent travels in Europe, we passed by countless bakeries—but none had an aroma quite like this one. The irresistible smell just pulled us in. We decided to share a raisin brioche, and after the first bite, there was no turning back! It would have been perfect with a cup of coffee, but I couldn’t wait—I started eating it the moment we stepped outside!

The Raisin and Sucre Cramiques was wonderful. When I ordered it, it was still warm. Nothing beats freshly baked goods.

Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Portion to Price: 4/5 Overall: A very good experience. I'd come back The extended review... Food: Cassoulet - 4/5 - This was phenomenal. Portion size was amazing and I didn't walk out hungry. A very tasty dish and full of protein. Roasted Lamb - 3/5 - Pretty standard fare. Service: 4/5 - Friendly service. Ambiance: 4/5 - It's a bit tight but overall a nice experience. Portion to Price: 4/5 - Decent portion sizes and enough to leave your belly full.

A classic French bistro near the Eiffel Tower that focuses on Southwest French cuisine. We didn’t have a reservation, but the staff kindly found us a table right away. He was very friendly and took the time to explain the entire menu to us in detail. We ordered the duck confit and the duck breast, both were excellent. The duck breast was honestly the best I’ve ever had, perfectly cooked medium rare, juicy and tender with a delicious roasted honey sauce and purée. It was like the wagyu of duck, I devoured the entire plate. The confit was also cooked to perfection. A little on the pricey side, but absolutely worth it. The space is also very charming and nostalgic. I’d come back every time I’m in Paris.

Lucked out without reservations. Anything duck will impress. The duck breast was better than any “steak” I’ve ever had. Jean-Claud was a great dinner guide.

The cutest spot for our first meal in Paris! We went right from the hotel to our reservation and the staff was extremely welcoming. Our waiter offered his suggestions and we were very happy with the final selections! A wonderful experience for anyone who wants a quaint restaurant with delicious bites.

La Fontaine de Mars is everything you hope for in a classic Parisian bistro: warm, welcoming, and absolutely delicious. We came without a reservation and were graciously accommodated, which already set the tone for a convivial evening. The red and white checkered tablecloths and rich dark wood décor create a cozy, timeless ambiance that feels like stepping into a beloved neighborhood institution. Our waiter was exceptional; friendly, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful about everyone's dietary needs. The starters were divine: the Blancs de poireau tièdes & ravigote d'herbes was fresh and flavorful, and the Terrine de canard, foie gras, pistache & chutney was a standout. For mains, the fricassée de poulet à la basquaise was the plat du jour and a hit at the table, while the suprême de poulet aux morilles and Pavé de saumon were beautifully prepared and comforting like a home-cooked meal elevated to perfection. Dessert was the cherry on top: we shared the île flottante, baba au rhum, and a truly unforgettable Mont Blanc fait maison; hands down one of the best I've ever had. This place hits all the right notes. Add La Fontaine de Mars to your Paris dining list…you won’t regret it. We’ll definitely be back!

My husband got the duck canard and I got the chicken with mushrooms and rice. Duck was wonderful! Chicken was good but nothing amazing. We started with the seared fois gras which was rich and decadent. For dessert we enjoyed the floating fountain which was light, sweet and different from what we usually would get. Atmosphere is quintessential Paris! Waiter was friendly and everything was explained well.

Atmosphere and decoration are nice. I don't think the food warrants the high price though. The steak was nice but the chips tasted and looked like 30 minute old McDonald chips, not so nice, duck breast was nice but no veg on the side. Staff and service was friendly. Food came out very quickly.

Too expensive. There are other bakeries with better value and taste compared to this one. I ordered one iced coffee and one dessert, and they charged me almost €18. Some staff can't speak English, which made communication difficult.

Honestly this patisserie has the smallest size of pastries I have seen in Paris. I actually don't mind that, as I believe that sugar should be consumed in moderation, but they are not cheaper because of the smaller size. I think it's about time that bakeries should list the price per kg. It's just insane that a tiny tart that you can finish in 2-3 bites can cost you more than 6 euros.

We happened upon this patisserie and everything about the pastry and the way we were received made it a perfect experience! Even when we wanted to move our table to the sun, the waiter complied with no hesitation. .

Excellent service and friendly staff! Super tasty Rum Baba.

Review rating doesn't reflect the great flavors this place offers. Maybe it is not for tourists who prefer an ice cream from McDonald's. I highly recommend visiting this place. Desserts are amazing. And staff was friendly even if you don't speak French. We ordered St honore, Paris brest, and Palmiers. Coming back next time I am in Paris.

ART, EXCELLENCE, and TASTE fused together! Every visit is a delight.My favourite!

great shopping area has nice Croissant. weekend moring not even buzy. you can eat inside or outside. you can also "to go" for your breakfast. if your hotel near by you should stop before u eat hotel breakfast.

L’Éclair de Génie Café is an absolute gem! From the moment we stepped in, the elegant yet cozy atmosphere made us feel like we’d been whisked away to a Parisian patisserie. The éclairs are as beautiful as they are delicious—each one a masterpiece of flavor and texture. The coffee was rich and perfectly paired with our treats, and the staff was wonderfully attentive, adding to the delightful experience.

Overrated. The eclair are ok but nothing better than an eclair from any bakery in France. Original yes, with lots of different flavours to pick from yes, but we’ve tried the small eclair 4 packs and it was dry with barely any cream inside. Disappointing. Service 0 as well, the lady was kind of rude, no staff was paying attention to us, it wasn’t busy and all of them were discussing until we arrived to order, they all stared at us while one was serving us. Just uncomfortable. I asked a couple of questions which were not answered nicely. Condescending even. I wouldn’t recommend. Just go to any boulangerie in Paris, small, not something you find on social media, and you’d be greatly served at half price the pastry. Prices are waaaay too high.

It’s one of the best croissants I’ve eaten in Paris. I especially recommend the raspberry croissant, there is a delicious filling inside which I loved very much! But also keep in mind that in mornings, there are lots of like so be prepared to take away the baked goods!

This place has an amazing atmosphere with great service. Best latte and Croissant we can have around. If you come please try their Eclair it is literally hands down, well balanced and different options.

It was a fun experience, there wasn't a big variety of eclairs but still we got 4 for 28€ and it was worth it! The waiters were so nice as well :) Merci

I went to try the viral croissant I saw on TikTok — I thought there would be a pistachio-stuffed croissant, but that wasn’t the case. I ended up getting the almond croissant, which was good, and the cappuccino was nice too. My friend tried the vanilla croissant — honestly, it was cold and pretty average. Overall, I think it doesn’t really deserve all the hype. It’s okay, but not as amazing as social media makes it seem.

I tried the éclair at L’Éclair de Génie and it was absolutely amazing — the best I’ve ever had! The croissant was also incredible, everything was just perfect. The coffee was really good too. Highly recommend!

We have just tasted two different types of eclairs which were eclairs with chocolate and eclair with coffee. Both of them were the most qualified eclairs I’ve ever tasted which were mild in taste and definitely you feel like eating more and more. I can honestly say that I fell in love with this taste!

I got a TooGoodToGo from here and the woman serving made me feel very unwelcome. I don’t know what part of me she deemed unacceptable as she was more polite to the person in front of me. But to me she was very rude. In terms of the pastries, I would say they were okay but a bit dry and not worth paying full price for.

Beautiful place, the atmosphere is ravishing and refined. Loved it. The pastries I tried did unfortunately not move me. The opera and the roulé noisettes were good, but somehow too creamy. Taste was masked by the amout of cream.

To be fair, their desserts and hot chocolate are amazing. Unfortunately, the service doesn’t live up to the expectations. The desserts were served on a saucer instead of cake plate.

Beautiful shop, breathtaking presentation of the food, exciting experiments both on the sweet and savoury spectrum. We came here on a Monday morning to enjoy a good quality breakfast. The reason why I am giving only two stars is because everything that happened after we passed our order was a disappointment. We sat down outside, as it was a gorgeous autumn morning. We received our teas in two paper cups destined for espressos and not for teas! Our food arrived in plastic containers and we were given plastic cutlery. What a shock! You think you are in one of Paris' fanciest teahouses, and you are obliged to use disposable materials... We asked for normal cutlery and a proper tea-pot and were refused because we were sitting outside. I wonder if they are afraid that you'll run away with their things or what... It took several attempts on our side to have at least a proper amount of water with the tea. I would have expected a place like this to take more pride in how they serve their teas and their amazing food. Paper espresso mugs that contain just enough water to make the tea leaves wet (because apparently the personnel is not trained on how much tea should go in one of those white bags) is not at all acceptable in my opinion. What a pity, so incoherent with the impression the entire shop conveys... I won't even mention the fact that I wasn't given a small plate/container to put my teabag on, so I had to put it on the table where it was leaking all over the place... Attention to details even outside would be welcome!

The owner was so kind! Pastries and espresso were great

Amazing selection of deserts and amazingly warm service. Opera to die for. I thought the coffee could be improved slightly.

Delicious lemon meringue pie! I love the adequate sweetness and the pillowy softness from the meringue, lemon custard is sour, I like the sourness, perfect with the meringue. Aubergine and tomato savory tarte is homey, service is great even though my French is still terrible at this moment, the staffs are friendly

We had a nice bottle of wine and delicious quiche here! It was very cozy to sit inside and the server was friendly and helpful. He even gave us a free slice of lemon meringue, which was delicious. Very nice experience!

I’m now made of 80% lemon meringue 🤪 I happily waited 45 mins for the lemon meringue to be ready and it was worth the weight. It not only looked impressive, but tasted incredible. The citron was tart and the meringue super fluffy, sticky and sweet. The staff were really friendly too.

We came for the famus citron tart. We arrived at 1330 and were told that they only served lunch. Cake was not served until 15. We then ate lunch, and got cake after dinner. Food and cake was fine, but its the service was a bit strange. At 14 the French came in and were able to order coffee and cake without having to eat lunch.

Well known for its formidable assortment of cakes and pies, this quirky establishment with an Alice in Wonderland theme also serves excellent omelette. The omelette aux grissolle is packed with mushroom and natural tastes. Love the chocolate and mascarpone pie!

Place is nice and so the cakes, BUT the meringue lemon pie is too heavy and the lemon is too acid! I went there just for this cake and i was absolutely disappointed!

Went with my partner today for lunch and dessert .. Firstly friendly and efficient service in very cozy decor. We ordered quiche that came with a small salad which was excellent . The big shock came with the desserts , overly sweet meringue and very acidic lemon pie. I couldn't finish it and my partner's raspberry apple linzer tart was meh but we also asked for 2 apple turnovers as takeaway . The bill was over the top : 70 euros. We won't be going back ..

Nice shop very clean, great selection but most of them would be gone early in the day. Still you can try any of their eclairs they are all delicious! They are helpful if you have any questions about the sweats and would answer further questions about the shop, their products if the shop isn’t crowded. We had a lovely conversation.

A place with lovely eclairs and chocolates. Each eclair is so beautiful, although the prices are more expensive than other patisseries. The staff are very friendly and helped with ensuring the products I bought suited my allergies. It's a lovely indoor space, but I wish we could have eaten at the shop rather than only have take out options.

Both éclairs were just amazing. Especially the passion fruit éclair was the best dessert I ate in Paris. Macaroons were also very nice. Also, the manager was very kind, welcoming visitors with a nice smile. There's no reason not to visit this place!

Beautiful eclair shop, wide variety of flavours of eclairs. It was a little bit steep per eclair (£5 each) but we’re in Paris. We tried the passionfruit, the yuzu and the dark chocolate, all of which were just divine... I didn’t expect the pastry to be tougher than the fluffy eclairs we’re traditionally used to, but all in all it was delicious. Paired with hot genmaicha to wash it all down, it was the perfect shelter from a rainy afternoon!

Something you try once and taste 2 flavors or more. I had the pineapple with passion fruit which was fruity and fresh . The salted caramel one was good as well more on the sweet note . The filling is quite liquid not very creamy and heavy . Each piece is 6.50 euros otherwise u can have 4 mini pieces for 12 euros or box for 35 euros . Size is not fulfilling. They had limited selection though.

Nice looking shop, great selection of eclairs. They sell chocolates too which make great souvenirs. Bought the tasting set to try the different flavours, good quality. A little on the pricier end. Honestly speaking, not mind blowing. I’ve had better ones in Singapore (oops, sorry Paris)

We saw a reviews about L’Éclair de génie and added it to our plans in Paris. Eclairs are delicious, fresh and juicy. Yes, price is a little bit higher that in other places, but this eclairs are different in taste. If you are visiting Paris, you need to taste eclairs in L’Éclair de génie.

I haven't been to Portugal but the pastel de nata at Comme A Lisbonne are the best I have had in my life. We first had them during our Paris trip in 2018 and had to return again in 2025. They were just as good as before and we enjoyed them topped with cinnamon and a cappuccino. The shopkeeper was a very nice gentleman who spoke English and we enjoy chatting with him about our first visit to the shop. Don't pass by this shop without picking up a pastel de nata.

The owner’s explanation and love of Portugal made this lunch a joy. I followed two well dressed middle aged women into the spot because they seemed to know where they were going for lunch and I had no clue. We were greeted by the owner who explained the soup and sandwich (called toasts) of the day, in English. He told lovely stories of where he lived in Portugal and the types of food eaten in the Azores where he grew up. All in all, a lovely lunch with an awesome experience. Extremely affordable, fresh and healthy, and enjoyable. No one this spot was under 40 today. It was a mix of locals and travelers. I had pea and parsnip soup (delicious) and a ham and cheese toast. The salad included mesclun, cherry tomatoes, and thin strips of beet. Quite good and healthy.

Lovely staff, lovely owner, pastel de nata like you are eating it in Belém 😋 A lovely little Portuguese place in the middle of Paris. They also have other items you normally get when in Portugal, like typical brand of orange juice or a brand of sparkling water.

I had this amazing cocoricó sandwich.amazing, delicious! The attendant Rafael is very nice,place is small and really cozy. Price is okay. Will certainly get back soon.

Yum !! Pasteis de nata just like in Lisboa + the staff their is so nice !! I will definitely go back their for more !

Who doesn’t love Portuguese egg tarts? You cannot go wrong with ordering half a dozen to share (or just to consume it all yourself lol). Crispy flaky edges with custardy centre, it’s exactly what you expect from a fresh egg tart. Do yourself a favour and add a sprinkle of cinnamon to enhance the flavour!

The waitress lady is so nice, very friendly, very smiling. We feel very welcome. The cafe is surprisingly small, but it’s cute. The tarts are good.

The place is mostly famous for its cakes, but I tried their pain au chocolat pastry and it was one of the best I ever had. Generous, flaky, chocolatey, as it should.

The galette des roi really amaze me The puff pastry is delicate like snowflakes but it won’t make a mess. The taste is very light, the puff pastry is a bit To my surprise, all the puff layers are well baked, bc I had so many galette which the inner part are undercooked. Overall, the price is very high(7€ for a slice) for the flavor

I recently had the pleasure of sampling some cakes at Des gâteaux et du pain and I must say, they were some of the best I've ever tasted. The cakes were delicate, yet complex in flavour, and truly memorable. Each bite was a decadent experience that left me wanting more. The textures were perfectly balanced, with the cakes being both soft and moist. The flavours were complex, with each ingredient complementing the other.

One of the Best pain du Chocolate in town! Price is definitely not cheap comparing to the average bakery in town but it worth it (at least the pain du Chocolate) And this is the first thing they sold out everyday - after 10am, it is really based on luck. I got the freshly baked butter croissant couple of times, and it is even better!!! Have to admit I am not a big fan of their cookies - expensive and taste average (€20+ for less than 200g)

Heavenly pastries. Yes it may be expensive but worth every penny for those who appreciate the art and the taste! Many of their pastries are “one of a kind” good. The one topped with mango , the pamplemousse, the Kashmir … been every day of every single visit to Paris and just can’t get enough. Cons: they can be/act a tiny bit snobby, I wish they weren’t of course, and maybe they realize one day that humility makes their art more precious. That said, it’s not as difficult to tolerate a bit of a snob if it’s coming from the best in the art!

First off, why can't you take photos of your store? What an odd start to shopping at your store. Secondly, I found your staff standoffish. Thirdly, the desserts were all so bland. How is that even possible. Very disappointing. I just came from Rennes and had The Best Tarts from Pâtisserie Le Daniel & Maison Bouvier! Actually, I also had a delicious tart from a small place here in Paris called Les Gourmandes à Paris. Do check out these places.

It is a nice big bakery with a lot of choices but limited for those who are searching for halal option as most of their products contain pork products. So the choice was very limited .

I heard a lot about this place of their chocolate mousse on the internet, So I decided to come and try for the first time and it was really delicious and the blond seller who serve me was really patient and she know everything about chocolate even if I am a chef in the industry. I also tried their other offers and a seller with brown hair helped me a lot after because I want to discover more about it and she was really cool and kind. The price is fair for the quality they are offering. And I finished the experience with a nice gentleman at the cashier. A great experience overall from beginning to end.

They have 5 different flavors with different % of cacao and intensities. They let you sample all the mousse. The texture was creamy and the taste was high quality and delicious! It’s 7 euros for a small cone

Had the most palatable chocolate mousse of the few. (It was the one that looked most empty cos it was probably the most popular). Rather good. Despite not really liking chocolate, i found it to be pretty good. Not something i would travel out of my way for again, but pretty alright. Wasnt too heavy or bitter. Decent place.

so blown away by the chocolates here. we had 2 chocolate mousses and we also bought a couple of chocolate bars. don’t think so much - just get it! I regret not buying more. I shared the chocolates with my colleagues and they all said it’s the best chocolate they’ve had (and we eat a lot of good chocolates). the tablette noir nicaragua o’payo tasted amazing (great balance of bitterness with fruity acidity)

CHAPON CHOCOLATE MOUSSE BAR, PARIS 🍫🇫🇷👌🏼 Paris is full of sweet temptations, but few are as iconic as the famous chocolate mousse from Chocolaterie Chapon in St. Germain. Saying it was heavenly is an understatement. The creamy, rich, delicious chocolate mousse is extraordinary! 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼 Known for its velvety texture and rich, intense flavor, it’s the kind of dessert that has earned a cult following among locals and travelers alike. Each spoonful feels like a celebration of French craftsmanship in chocolate, smooth yet powerful, and absolutely indulgent. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Best decision of the day! The mousse was everything I hoped for—light yet decadent, perfectly balanced, and truly unforgettable. Sometimes the best Paris moments come when you least expect them, and this was definitely one of them! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

We really liked the fact that have different intensities of mousse au chocolat! The mousse was delicious (we tried the most intense one with 75% dark chocolate). And the staff was amazing really friendly, explaining all the differences between the options and let us try 2 options to decide which one we liked more! The small portion is 7€.

My sister saw this spot on Instagram and so we came here for an afternoon sweet treat. They gave us samples of chocolate while waiting in line and we had the choice or milk or dark chocolate. There were two different mousse options (milk or dark) and there’s a separate line inside or purchasing chocolates vs purchasing just mousse. The line is long but orderly thanks to the employees. Credit cards are accepted. Even though I’m usually a dark chocolate girly, I’d recommend the milk chocolate mousse. I’d also recommend splitting one between two people.

One of my favorite places in Paris for sure!! I’ll gladly come back! This is such a comfort food type of meal! We had the ravioles au dauphiné as an appetizer, we ordered the canard as main course and of course, the chocolate mousse as dessert, and OHHH MYYYY!!! This is chocolate heaven! Not too sweet, the texture is just unbelievable.. just the perfect dessert! And they serve you at your table, she even asked if we wanted more! I wish we could eat more, but we were just so satisfied. Really amazing food!

It is very rare that a restaurant becomes a memory, but Chez Janou did exactly that. This is the kind of bistro that makes you understand why the French guard their food culture so fiercely. I ordered the escargots, the ratatouille, a bottle of wine, and of course the legendary chocolate mousse that everyone talks about. The escargots were exactly how they should be: rich garlic butter, tender snails, nothing rubbery, nothing overdone. The ratatouille tasted like something a French grandmother would make at home, slow-cooked, layered flavour, fresh vegetables that haven’t been cooked to death. But the real star is the chocolate mousse. They do not serve you a “portion”. They bring an entire bowl, the size of a cooking pot, and simply scoop it onto your plate without ceremony. No pretension, no fancy plating, just unapologetically indulgent chocolate. Smooth, deep, not too sweet, and probably the best I have ever had. The bistro is loud, warm, slightly chaotic in the best way, with tables squeezed together and waiters flying around but still managing to joke and smile. It feels like eating inside a postcard of Paris in the 60s. An absolute must.

Despite having a reservation which we booked 3 weeks in advance, we had to wait over 45 minutes to be seated. It is understandable if there is a delay but for there to be such a long delay even with a reservation and no apology nor a complimentary item seems like bad customer service to me. Besides the poor service, the food was actually quite delicious. The duck was a perfect medium rare, not too chewy, but lacked a bit of flavour on its own & the skin was on the edge of being burnt rather than charred. But the red wine jus was heavenly and complimented the duck well. The potatoes were also perfectly cooked and soaked up all the duck juices. The mussel entree was nice and garlicky, simple but good. For dessert, the famous mousse au chocolat was worthy of its’ praise. It was very light but also decadent, definitely should be shared between 2-3 people. The mousse was on the darker chocolate side which I enjoyed but I would argue that it would have been even better with a bit of flaky sea salt to really bring out the sweetness/add a bit of contrast. Also, I found it slightly grainy with either the granulated sugar not fully dissolving or bits of cocoa powder/chocolate not fully mixed in, which disturbed its smooth texture. Not a life changing chocolate mousse but definitely an enjoyable experience. Additionally, the restaurant was well-decorated, a bit small but had a lively atmosphere.

Best steak frites I had on my trip. Crispy flavorful outside, a delicious reduced wine sauce and buttery taters. Best olives on my trip, tasted fresh and not canned. Incredible chocolate mousse, dark chocolate flavor but creamy enough for only milk chocolate lovers, big portion. We sat at the bar because we didnt have a reservation. No wait for that. The fit is tight, alots of people and loud. They have a bathroom. Staff was friendly.

It seems to be more of a tourist spot than a local bistrot, but that doesn’t mean the food is bad. I enjoyed the snails, found the ratatouille to be just okay, and really liked the fish. However, this place is especially known for its mousse au chocolat—and for good reason. It was definitely the star of the meal and makes Chez Janou worth a second visit. The restaurant is quite crowded and noisy, so expect the service to be a bit slow.

Great French dining experience downs quiet street in Paris. We didn’t have reservations and waited an hour, but was well worth it. It truly made me feel like I was eating like a local and was a highlight of the trip to Paris! Friendly wait staff, food was excellent and reasonably priced. Went with my wife and two tween daughters and they loved the experience and food! Would highly recommend!

The food was amazing, I definitely recomend the mussels for starters and the mousse au chocolat worth the hype (is delicious). We also tried the creme brulle, that was also amazing! We didn't find a spot to book online in advance, so we went as walk-in, we waited for a few minutes in the line, but it works for us, because the food were amazing! I would say that you couldn't miss this restaurant while in Paris.

Not worth the hype and the queue. We waited days in mind to try these delicious looking desserts and waited for 40 minutes in actual queue only to be disappointed. It is a piece of art in terms of presentation but tasted really bad. The mango was too sour and no sweet taste to complement it. The pistachio was the worst of all. It was just not sweet at all and tasted super bland and salty. We end up wasting it away. 18 euros for it? More like 2 euros only. The raspberry vanilla dessert ended up being decent and we liked it, though it can be improved further. Overall, chef really needs to take these feedback and make it worth the hype and money. Totally not worth my 98 euros.

I took Fig, Pistacchio and Blueberry. Also before I was in the cafe and took Vanilla. Each 18€ Incredibly tasty and well made. But don’t expect them to be sweet. They are not. The are fresh fruits with very little sugar if it’s even there. It’s really unique not to feel jam but actually like a fresh fruit pure. Very light deserts, pistacchio was the only that was slightly heavy. My favorite was blueberry and vanilla ( that I took from the caffe in the morning

Tried four of the famous trompe-l’œil pastries: Pot de Pop Corn, Mangue, Pomme Verte, and Pot de Chouchou. The Pot de Pop Corn was my clear favorite, its depth of flavor was unmatched, perfectly balanced with a subtle salty sweetness. The Mangue, though beautifully presented and hyped online, wasn’t my top pick but was still very good. The Pomme Verte was excellent, tasting remarkably like a real apple with an impressive texture, and the Pot de Chouchou offered a more straightforward flavor profile but was enjoyable nonetheless. We waited about an hour in line on a Saturday afternoon, but the staff were exceptionally friendly, professional, and organized, making the experience pleasant. At €86 for four pastries, it’s definitely a splurge, but everything was crafted to perfection, and you truly get what you pay for. A must-try for pastry enthusiasts seeking an elevated, one-of-a-kind experience.

I have visited on Wednesday and around 12:05 I have joined the queue. The queue moved relatively quick and within 30 minutes I got in. Mind, this location is open only Wednesday to Sunday and only 12-6 or 7 PM. All items were available and I have purchased 3 creations: pistachio, apple and mango. Do bear in mind that these creations have to be consumed within 1 hour. In summer definitely quicker and you have to carry it carefully as they are fragile. There isn’t any seating area but there is a park nearby. They do offer napkins, spoons for your take away. Is take away only with click and collect available but you must reserve few days ahead. Separate queue for click and collect. The pistachio wasn’t my favourite. The amount of sea salt was overpowering and didn’t let actual pistachio speak for itself. Mango was delicate but absolutely refreshing and worth every penny. The apple has little dill inside but I actually liked it so it gave softness to actual green apple sourness. Don’t expect red apple flavour when is actually Granny Smith type. Each priced at €18. Do mind these aren’t cakes. They do sell cakes like fruits and cost around €35.

I really wanted to try these desserts, as they were so hyped up online. We waited in line about 10 minutes, actually not bad and time went by fast. I appreciate the fact that you’re the only customer in the store, so the line is worth it. The presentation and experience is amazing. We bought the blueberry (18€) pistachio (18€) and popcorn (25€) The pistachio I would say is interesting - NOT SWEET, which I was not expecting. The texture is interesting, a little bir salty, you can really feel the pistachio taste. The blueberry is good, not amazing, not sweet again. You can feel bits of actual blueberry inside. The popcorn was by far the best and most interesting of all. This dessert was sweet, with caramel and actual popcorn inside. We shared 3 desserts to 2 people which was way to much, I would just choose 2, as they were quite big. It’s an interesting experience, over-hyped, good but would not try again.

The pastries are truly exceptional and incredibly delicious. The trompe l’œil, which are desserts designed to resemble fruit, offered a perfect harmony of fruity flavours without being overly sweet. The only downside might be the relatively high price, but it is certainly worth experiencing at least once.

What can I say? Absolutely Perfect! They’re not cheap, of course, but the price is rightful if you consider the technique, the quality of the products and all the amount of care there’s behind every single sweet. I tried a lot of pâtisserie but nothing like Cedric. They’re not too sweet, not to heavy on the stomach, his cakes definitely gives you a great amount of satisfaction! Last but not least, all the staff that works for him are incredibly professional, cordial and gentle. I’ll keep being his client every time I come to Paris!

Awesome location close to the Eiffel Tower, and the staff were great, but otherwise we weren’t impressed. While the side of ratatouille was fantastic, the French onion soup was far from the best we’ve had, and the salmon was OK (the chimichurri sauce helped a ton).

Happy hour is top notch. Highly recommend the duck and house board as starter. Everyone who ordered the beef bourguignon ate the entire plate.

I had an amazing breakfast experience at Le Petit Cler! The food was absolutely delicious — especially the croissants, which were fresh, flaky, and full of flavor. The service was excellent, and we were served by Thas, who was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. His warm attitude made our visit even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back soon! Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

a perfect restaurant for people watching and taking yourself for a solo date — which is exactly what i did. it’s not a large restaurant so the seating area outside felt intimate and cozy. i sat at a corner in the second row and i could easily people watch but not feel so close to the street itself. they have a pretty extensive menu so it can feel a bit overwhelming figuring out what to order but i saw online that their beef bourguignon was popular and heard the waiters saying the same thing so i tried that. there was so much beef. i’m happy to say they don’t skimp on the beef and the flavor was great and it paired well with the pasta.

Meat (beef) had a bad smell, weird texture and didn’t taste good at all. Apparently not fresh. Otherwise, pasta and even crème brûlée dessert were not too bad.

After visiting the Musée de l’Armée with my son, we were absolutely starving, we had skipped breakfast and were hoping to find something nearby. We first tried another café, but they had just stopped serving breakfast (literally two minutes after 11:00) and didn’t seem too eager to help. Then we walked into Le Petit Cler, and the difference was night and day. We were greeted right away by a warm, friendly man who seated us with a smile. The whole vibe was calm, welcoming, and just what we needed. We ordered from their full breakfast menu: my son had scrambled eggs with cheese and ham, fresh juice, and a chocolate croissant. I chose a mushroom omelette with cheese and a latte. The food was tasty, the portions generous, and the experience left us both happy and full. A truly pleasant place where hospitality still means something. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great breakfast in Paris.

We had a lovely meal at Le Petit Cler! The beef bourguignon was rich, tender, and full of flavour, and the French onion soup was absolutely perfect – warm, comforting, and very tasty. We also tried the sirloin beef (ordered medium), but unfortunately it was a bit tough to chew. Still, the flavours were good, and the service was friendly and efficient. Overall, a charming Parisian spot with great atmosphere and delicious classic dishes – would definitely come back for the bourguignon and onion soup!

A beautiful store with the beautiful patisseries that you feel like buying them all, the choices were hard to make but the ones that we got had this soft and smooth taste that would just melt in your mouth. The delicacy of these patisserie were just perfect. We also bought their unique focaccia which was another hit. Will be going back here again. ❤️

came here desperately hunting for a croissant, but i was too late. all the viennoiserie was already gone for the day. a shame, yes, but also a promising sign that it must be really good. definitely planning to come back next time i’m in paris, but earlier. i did get to try a couple of bites of other items and everything was pretty tasty. so expectations are officially high for round two.

They have one of the best croissants in Paris! The croissant is crunchy yet very buttery. I didn’t have a chance to try the famous Chausson aux Pomme, but their Chausson aux Citron is amazing.

It is because of shops such as this that I cannot wait to return to Paris. In fact, Des Gateaux et du Pain is at the very top of my list of favorites. The quiche (which they will warm for you) is pure, buttery bliss. The chausson rhubarb, the pain au chocolate, the citron tart, the flan—all perfection. If only I could’ve tried more of their beautiful, rustic pain and jewel-like patisserie. Next time. Definitely next time.

Best to go when there are few customers in the shop as it's worth it to calmly look at the marvelous selection. We've visited many bakeries this trip but Des Gateaux et du Pain stands out as especially superb. The angel food cake, for example, is a real treat. The flan is very special. On a Sunday morning, it's a mob scene. Best to drop in when you're not rushed and the whole town isn't there.

Great customer experience. Yummy desserts. Everything taste good and beautifully made. I loved visiting this place. I highly recommend this sweet spot 😍😋🤤

This place was awesome . The pasteries are true art. sophie gave great customer service and helped us pick out the best pastries based on our tastes.

Great variety of macron and a selection of chocolates to choose from , great service to foreigners, welcoming and friendly but most important of all . The ice cream was soooooo amazing While many people come here for the chocolates and macarons, I truly think their ice cream deserves much more attention and recognition you will know why it costs €8 for a small cup after the first bite , intensely flavorful, rich, and unforgettable.

I recently visited Pierre Hermé Paris and was truly impressed. The boutique itself is elegant, and the display of macarons is almost too beautiful to eat. The experience was made even better by the wonderful service. A staff member named Vladimir assisted me, and he was fantastic — welcoming, patient, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the different flavours, helped me put together a varied selection. Yes, the macarons are on the pricier side, but the quality, presentation, and service make it worth it. If you’re looking for a luxurious treat or a memorable gift, I highly recommend Pierre Hermé Paris — and if you’re lucky, you’ll be helped by Vladimir!

Great macaroon. Unlike another brand which is more traditional, this has thicker cream and more unique play in colouring and flavour.

Both macarons and ice cream were delicious. Full of flavors but not overly sweet. Must try!

The gentleman who helped me was kind and helpful. I got the box of 8 for €26 and the packaging was sturdy - the box had a slot for each macaron to sit in without getting crushed. The macarons had a nice crisp shell and chewy center with generous fillings. There were so many exciting flavours to choose from and the only disappointment was that I didn’t grab more than 8! The Ispahan definitely lived up to the hype and a few stand out flavours I absolutely loved were the Aurora (rose & bergamot), olive oil & fig, and the cinnamon. Will most definitely be making another stop when I visit again in the future!

Very good macaroons, though they are a tad expensive. The workers were very nice and helpful.

Very beautiful pastry shop with a wide selection of macaroons and chocolates. You get to select which design you want for your takeaway macaroon box.

⚠️ Be cautious if you’re a tourist. This restaurant knowingly took advantage of us as foreigners and overcharged our meal. We ordered a light brunch with an oyster and a small lunch plate, but the server changed our order without consent and increased the price. When it was time to pay, the server avoided us and sent a coworker—who had not served us—to bring the check instead. To make matters worse, the food was mediocre and definitely not worth the inflated cost.

Dinner at Le Grand Café Fauchon was a highlight of Paris. We started with the Foie gras de canard du Sud-Ouest « maison », served with toasted brioche and figs — smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. The main was the Filet de Bœuf de race normande, tender and juicy, paired with morel cream, spelt, and a pepper sauce that added real depth. For dessert, the iconic Bisou Bisou stole the show — a glossy red lips creation with red fruits, almond crunch, and vanilla cream. Playful, elegant, and unforgettable. Great wine pairings, attentive service, and a stylish atmosphere made the whole experience memorable.

First time with my son and my friend, a light snack after visiting the musee orangerie. Fauchon was so cool, loved to have the Clueless movie reference in real life. Brought home some limited edition macarons too, the barbe a papa. We called for a table ahead of time so the cafe knew we had a toddler. The server was great he gave my son a fauchon coloring book that was super cute, my son kept coloring it weeks after he got it. Merci beaucoup 🩵

Best value high end tea at 7 euro in Paris. Real leaf tea (for my Darjeeling) and a macron with exquisite desserts. Service is absolutely top notch for this 5 star hotel cafe.

Amazing restaurant in the city center of Paris facing the Madeleine Church. The service, friendly staff, delicious dishes. Just perfect!

Bonsoir Paris 🇫🇷 My sunset hour at Le Grand Café Fauchon was a perfect moment of Parisian epicurean pleasure. Nestled within the luxurious FAUCHON L’Hôtel Paris, I discovered a dining experience crafted by Maison Fauchon, a name synonymous with world-famous taste since 1886. As the sun began to set, casting a beautiful glow, I savoured the exquisite dishes, a testament to Maison Fauchon’s commitment to using the finest produce.

A Must-Have Experience in Paris It’s definitely worth the experience. Fauchon is a place that delivers on elegance and flavor, it’s the kind of place you should try at least once while in Paris. The location is perfect, right in front of La Madeleine. We went for a aperitif tasting , starting with a glass of excellent champagne, foie gras, some specialties, and freshly made macarons. Everything was top quality. The service was also wonderful. The view was beautiful, and something rare in Paris: there’s a parking spot right in front, very convenient. Elegant, delicious, and memorable. Would go back for a special treat.

We had great time at Le Servan. Both food and service were really good. Would especially highlight their celery tart (we didn’t expect much but it was wow, one of the best dishes we ordered) and also the tuna. Hot chocolate tart with flaky salt and ice cream was a treat, such a mix of textures! Would definitely come again

The food was tasty – but not everything. I was expecting something better. The vegetarian options were fine but nothing special. I think the prices are fair since the ingredients are high quality. The service and wines were excellent, but the food wasn’t as outstanding as I expected.

Still excellent, turned up at 12 noon without a reservation and was offered either the bar or a table outside. Quick lunch so snack and two starters: Classics - wonton, calves brain, and then dumplings.

The appetizer was excellent. The photo shows a cow's brain, which looks a bit scary, but it was a special experience. As for the service, they could be friendlier.

A delightful balance of precision and surprise in the flavors; superb service and a remarkable wine list.

Absolutely didn’t disappoint — inventive, low key, welcoming staff, well balanced wine list with sick by-the-glass pours.

Really enjoyed everything we ordered especially the fried black pudding wonton. The ginger and pear sorbet was refreshing. Service was great and workers are friendly. Dishes are small so it was perfect for lunch.

Michalak offers delicious pastries, especially their chocolate croissant, which was very tasty. However, their cakes didn’t quite impress me.

Deserts were interesting and tasty just as I wanted to open a bakery and do myself. Congrats to the interesting design and original choice

Amazing pastries! I tried the Mille-feuille and it was one of the best I ever had! The quality and the combination of the products is truly good!😊

No need to over-intellectualise. This is simply amazing. I bought Crossany Brezel which was savoury and tasted as a bretzel housed in the shell of a croissant. Cookie Dulcey Pecan was amazing, and Madeleine exceptionally good:

Got the “frokie” the perfect mix of brownie cookie cake gooey goodness

Amazing pastry creations, visually perfect and incredibly light, low in sugar and delicious. The mango was my favorite, such a cloudy texture and ultra fresh! The prices are above average but it’s to be expected as it’s by a renowned chef (Michalak) and also worth it with the very delicate and meticulous work they put in these beauties.

Beautifully crafted pastries. Inventive and creative, I enjoyed the yuzu dessert in the jar. I'm so glad to have visited and there are so many special treats there. Not the usual expected desserts, but all look mouthwatering good!

Through a charming courtyard that’s is straight out of sleeping beauty (according to my 4 year old) you find this tea room which is totally charming. The surprise plate was so yummy and the teas (mine was 8€) are really lovely. The service is lovely and with a smile and they even gave us paper and markers when we asked for my daughter. So nice! Such a nice experience. Thank you!

Unfortunately, I think it was the manager, she was very rude and cold. Not very welcome to tourists. Everyone was served table water except us. After we asked twice, it arrived just before we left. My family could not order before I came out of the bathroom. All other tables had their babies pram next to the table except ours needed to be taken away. So sad as it’s a beautiful place and was really looking forward to the visit after a long day. €36 for two orange juices, a tea and apple pastry. Would not recommend

Very cute place, the staff is very nice and seating area cute with their porcelain collections too! Teas and desserts excellent. Above average prices for the desserts.

I loved the cream and strawberry tarte and the staff is really kind!

Beautiful salon de thé with lovely setting and friendly staff. Had the Paris le splendour which taste amazing with pistachio plus strawberry with a crunchy base. The cold tea is also nice. There is a lovely garden outside. Great place to spend an afternoon.

Came here for post lunch dessert; an essential part of any meal. Lovely staff and beautiful, delicious desserts. Really appreciate the seasonal ingredients used in this “Rosa”. Ordered it based on staff recommendations and have no regrets. Also had a rich and flawless chocolat chaud. You have a choice of sitting outside on a breezy terrace or inside where the decor is lovely. Would recommend stopping here if you’re in the area!

Great service, efficient communication, friendly staff and magical space. We were provided excellent customer service. All responses were prompt and professional. The food was very good and tasty. Coffee was normal. The prices are expensive. 12€ for a lemon cake while you can take it as take away for 4€… find this a bit absurde. But the atmosphere is incredible and the staff very lovely.
