Come here just to get their double cappuccino, which comes in a bowl. Delicious. Actually very nice espresso. Weekend mornings, seating is hard to get and the place can get rather romper room though.
The fondant is the perfect blend of pastry, butter, and chocolate. Pair it with a hot cappuccino and you got yourself a little piece of heaven
J JMarch 26, 2011Ham and cheese croissant is the yummiest on the go breakfast. Everything to die for...authentic French food and feel. This might be my favorite location
BonJanuary 4, 2013Cannele are a must. Check out the jam selection and enjoy complimentary cornichons and olives with lunch.
David RestoSeptember 8, 2010An amazing cafe with such lovely employees. Try... EVERYTHING. It's guaranteed deliciousness. Also, ask the barista to surprise you with a drink... Keep'em on their toes. =)
Try a dirty, spicy chai! The extra caffeine is worth it on an early morning.- order a small cup of coffee (free refills for here) and a tasty pastry to nibble while writing a speech or poignant blog post (offline).
Great location. Wonderful pastry. Staff not so much with the friendliness even though I am here almost everyday.
Get a "Grab and Go" baguette (on the left as you walk in) when you don't want to wait.
I'm going to miss their almond croissants when it closes in September.
Jennifer ParksApril 15, 2013Surprised to hear Starbucks bought them, but still like their organic coffee
Everything's better with butter!
French toast and chocolate hazelnut croissant for the win!
Rachel RebeccaNovember 16, 2016Service here was decently friendly,. The food is in most locations is just OK, nothing to die for.
Buy granola. Bring home. Mix with Greek yogurt. Enjoy!
When you get down on one knee to ask someone to marry you, be mindful of the bathroom door.
French toast. it's more like custard. also buy an entire tart and share with some friends.
Carla BorelliNovember 21, 2009Get the French toast. It's custardy and yummy. Nothing like traditional french toast.
Get the fruit, yogurt, granola + honey. The absolute best yogurt you will ever have.
- Coffee, location, preserves are yumms. Staff not so much.
Love the Organic Oats with a cup of coffee in the morning!
Kevin HoJanuary 13, 2011so authentically French, where the service ignores you and moves at a glacial pace.

"Pro tip for the cost-conscious: split Benedict and French toast between 3 people, portions are big enough if you get the 3-piece options. Add on sides as needed."

"They have everything that I need in here. I love to go through the garage at weekends and find something that I could work with and I often got to stop by here to get the things that I could need."
