Rare are the times I leave a review, but this was so great that I had to leave one.A little piece of France in the heart of Santa Monica with super welcoming and available French managers where we chatted for a good time and had good pastries.Very reasonable price, I recommend.

What a nice surprise to find a French bakery in Los Angeles with quality products, thank you for taking us to France for a moment! That was delicious!We tasted the buttered ham, the madeleines, macaroons, pain au chocolat, even the lemonade and mocha were excellent!All this followed by a very warm welcome, you will not be disappointed!

I live in the neighborhood and decided to try a local spot on Main Street today. I believe in supporting local businesses. It was very disappointing. The service was not friendly during ordering and when I received the order to go. I ordered the pancakes with fruit and cream. On the menu was one price and on receipt, another. The 12oz latte was 4.75 and with oat milk, a dollar more. It came with 3 small pancakes which tasted terrible! Some of the blueberries were wilted! I paid $15.50 for them and when I asked why they were more then the menu price listed,man replied Tax! The other thing that I felt was inexcusable was the Costco and First Street brands used out for all to see near expensive coffee machine as well as the cheap syrup given with pancakes. If they are going to overcharge you for breakfast, at least use quality items! My total came to $23.43 for a terrible experience! I would not recommend or return to this place.

It was a very exciting morning until the lady owner started screaming at me. According to previous one-star reviews, this seems to be a common occurrence. She didn't realize my husband was next in line, and we were actually ordering food to be able to sit outside, following her rules. I would have been fine with it if she had said it in a nicer way. We're not in the army to endure that kind of behavior on a beautiful early Saturday morning. Moreover, I've been here twice before. Once, I patiently waited for 25 minutes to get my order while three people dropped out of line. Definitely not a place to be, unfortunately, for a supposedly French-style bakery. Please don't seat anywhere in this place if you don't want to have a drama!Instead of putting sign RESERVE on each table she's making customers feel miserable!

Amazing & delicious French food, snacks, and beverages, plus they have wine you can enjoy with your meal. There's a lovely patio outside with great ambiance and that amazing Santa Monica feel. Plus the owners are so lovely and friendly -- they and their staff go above & beyond in service.
Did a quick stop here just to pick up a sandwich. I asked the owner which one was popular and he said The Parisien. The sandwich came out perfect. Delicious bread with a generous portion of protein for $13. Totally worth it!

Came in for a quick sandwich order. I asked the owner what was popular and he said The Parisien. It came out perfect. The bread held true to French baking and the protein portions were generous. Totally worth $13. I highly recommend this spot for a quick eat.Food: excellentService: friendly and lightning fastAmbiance: cute and cozy French decorParking: street meters

The place is so adorable and the food is so fresh and you can tell was made with quality ingredients. The prices are great and the sizes of the meals are substantial. I will be back so many more times. So glad I stubble upon it on my walk.

I was drinking with my friends until the owner came to us and told us to leave because she said we didn't Pay for a meal and said that this place isn't a picnic table and told us to leave, and we paid for a meal and 5 drinks.

It is certainly bad because they kicked us out and she is acting like a 5 y old and she is over
