La Baguette Cafe and Espresso Bar

Stopped in for an Americano and an almond croissant to go about 2 o'clock on a Thursday afternoon. Service was strikingly rude from the person behind the counter, the coffee was terrible. I ordered a 12oz Americano and got about 6 oz of liquid in a 16 ounce cup that tasted like it had been made fromdishwater. I've never had such a bad coffee or such an FU attitude from a coffee shop before. I expect a lot better from La Baguette, I gotta say

Disappointed in the bakery items. Both the raisin pastry and croissant tasted old and stale. I only ate a few bites of the raisin. Really disappointed for a French bakery to taste like I bought the pastry at a supermarket. Front staff (one woman) provided excellent customer service for being so busy.

A coffee shop that doesn’t have coffee cause they’re cleaning the machine 45mn before closing. That’s absurd !!!!!! I will never drive there again
Cakes are not good and fresh at all btw

$15 for the worst French dip. Barely any meat and a measly slice of cantaloupe as a side. NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

I wish I had known that Google would ask me for a review. I would have taken a photo. It was too basic for the prices

Have loved this place since first I set foot on its beautiful wood flooring. I've never been disappointed in the 10+ years I've been fortunate to dine here. You just CAN'T go wrong. 😋

Parking: Has outdoor seating so I could sit outside with my puppers 🥰🐕

I've gotten a number of things from here and every time it is all just fabulous!
The bakes goods (lemon tart and apple croissant AMAZING) , the fondue, the sandwiches and even breakfast sandwich is amazing.
Highly recommend for a low key lunch or breakfast place.

The quiche (spinach and mushrooms) was crustless but was really tasty! It came with a large salad (I would have preferred something else at b-fast) & a huge dinner roll (was quite hard). The egg croissant sandwich was excellent and huge.

Clerk was rude. When asked to repeat himself he yelled. Asked for a carry out box he ignored us and went to sweep

How do I love the La Baguette.... Let me count the ways.

I am hopelessly loyal to the chicken salad on croissant and can't help myself when I tag on a cup of French Onion soup. Should I cut the servings in half for a soup and salad combo? Probably ... But do I? No. Instead I opt to stuff my tummy like a Thanksgiving Turkey. Is it worth it? Yes.

First, let me talk to you about the chicken salad. It's classic and wonderfully familiar... The croissant is perfectly fresh and flaky. It's almost like they knew you were coming and about to walk through the door and so they made them both fresh just for you.

And finally let me introduce you to the star of the show... The French Onion Soup. It's rich and savory with an abundance of caramelized onions and topped with chunky French baguette croutons and lots of ooey gooey Swiss cheese. It's truly love at first bite, and I renew that vow of love on each and every visit.

The downtown location is charming and meets the bill when I want to walk off my stuffing.
But my favorite location is on Chestnut Dr. location (off GoG) because it reminds me of a little establishment in Paris... Understated... Charming... Personable... Like it has personal touches of many different generations of family members and customers over the years. I'm so glad they haven't tried to change. Truly the food is the focus. And I thank them for that. Never change.

Regardless of which location I go to there is always a diverse clientele. Lots of gal pal luncheons but last time I went I had a couple construction workers, some military service members and a cowboy. Yep you heard me right, a cowboy. He was there because it had been his wife's favorite brunch place. Yes you heard right... This John Wayne of a man had taken time from workday to mozy into town to honor his wife's memory by having her fav meal at her fav little brunch restaurant. Guess what he was eating? You guessed it... This cowboy was slurping away at French Onion Soup. I admit, it was hard not to cry... He ate something else but I couldn't feel what it was. But then ofcourse I was trying not stare lest I start bawling at such a display of a man still desperately in love with his deceased wife...

So run don't walk... Grab your wife or girlfriend... Grab your pal or heck, go by yourself. But go. Go get your new favorite meal at your new fav casual little restaurant.

Your welcome.
