Joanna FlammNovember 30, 2015Lovely legit French bakery. Grab a chocolate croissant and a slice of Quiche Lorraine for a sweet/savory balanced breakfast.
Meghan PreussOctober 1, 2018Love La Fournette! Wide variety of fresh pastries and breakfast options. They have a few outdoor tables in the front as well- Jeff HAugust 8, 2014The crépes are AMAZING! My favorite is the Meat Crépe, it has the right amount of bacon and ham. Another plus is they serve Intelligentsia coffee

- OliviaMarch 30, 2019Best authentic French baguettes!! If you miss a taste of Parisian ones, you can find them here!
The dry salami sandwich is awesome. The pickled vegetables add a nice crunch.
Catherine PunktFebruary 24, 2015Good croissants and authentic food like Crêpe Suzette and French Onion Soup.
Matt HecklerDecember 9, 2015One of the best sandwiches I've ever had. I can't wait to get back here.
Abby MeixnerDecember 23, 2012Three words: raspberry chocolate macaroons. This place would be even better if they had almond milk lattes.
Allie HowardAugust 6, 2012Great pastries. Take a couple of croissants home and heat them in the oven in the am.
Andy CrosbyDecember 1, 2012Great food, but good luck getting a seat! Hardly any space in the dining area.
ivy t.December 23, 2012Its just "aight". Raspberry beignet was good, the filling especially. Almond croissant is good. Macarons are dull, ive had better.
