Beautiful little bakery in this gorgeous quaint town. I was intrigued by the piano music I heard while walking down the street so I popped my head in and was enamored with the entire atmosphere. A live pianist, beautiful and delicious pastries, and excellent customer service. I had already eaten breakfast so I decided to just get a couple of pastries and a few macaroons. All were delicious and at a good price. I will definitely be returning!

Visiting from Houston TX and our waiter Victor was amazing and made the experience enjoyable. All the food is hand made from scratch. We had the pleasure of taking a tour of the bakery (located in another location nearby) and saw how everything was handmade. The food was absolutely delicious and I highly recommend stopping by to enjoy French food, wine and ambience with live piano music playing. We will definitely be back for more.

Very cute place like the atmosphere the coffee is so hot that it's burnt and I asked for sweet cream cheese croissant heated up and it's like it's cold in the center. Maybe this was yesterday pastries since I guess it was frozen before they tried to heat it up. Their menu is pretty poor this could be such a good brunch place but the menu is sub par. I guess they do more bar business at night than food. PS the menu price for French toast $21.00 plus tax and tip not worth it. Nothing worst than the waitress drops the check with the food and does not come back to the table. Tips based on service and is not mandatory!!!!!

Outrageously overpriced. They offer counter service, but no prices listed. $27 for2 croissants and 2 espresso drinks! Staff inattentive to walk in guests. I ordered a doppio on ice. They delivered me an Americano utterly tasteless. Beautiful looking place

This place was nice. So many things to look at front counter was all the pastries. Bought candyce a raspberry tart. Very good. Full breakfast menu to try all things. Sister got the quiche bacon and cheese. I tried it wow. Super good. I did the traditional French breakfast. Eggs a bit underdone but overall not bad. Loves the potatoes. Natural cut French fries. Hey. It is a French restaurant. Candyce got a build your own omelet and this was stuffed. Prices a bit high but the portions are big.

Beautiful interior; old building with lots of character and nice atmosphere. Prices were very expensive, but luckily we got the lunch special ($12.95 I think) which was a croissant sandwich with side salad and a coffee. Coffee was ok. Hubs got the croque monsieur (also lunch special) and enjoyed it. Delicious, flaky croissant. My girl got the ($20+) berry crepes and enjoyed them. Grandpa bought the sourdough and pound cake from the front, but was disappointed. Pound cake was dry. Pastries were yummy! I tried the cheese and the strawberry. Yum!

Really beautiful restaurant interior, friendly servers, we had some great eggs benedict and pastries. Prices are pretty high for breakfast, but I wouldn't mind if it were done well. My bride and I both ordered breakfast plates which were to be served with "home fries" according to the menu, NOPE - french fries were delivered in their place with no notification in advance from our server. French fries are NOT breakfast food outside of Pittsburgh PA so I'm not sure what's going on in Durango. Was not busy when we visited (morning trains were already gone). Sorry for the low rating, but you definitely earned it by substituting french fries on my breakfast plate. We dropped $75.00 (with tip) on 2 breakfast plates with 2 glasses of $9.00 each fresh squeezed orange juice. Not saying you won't like the place, it's good, just sharing our disappointment with the way they handled the potato substitution.

Went in with the hope of getting one of the lunch specials out front but they were only serving breakfast. Our waiter Victor was great and made some good recommendations. Both my wife and I had the breakfast sandwich on a croissant which was quite tasty. Came with fries which were not bad just not what we were expecting. Picked up a chocolate croissant and a jalapeño croissant the next day for a road trip and both were very good. Would recommend.

Stopped in while visiting Durango Colorado. We tired a few different pasties but nothing spectacular. Maybe it was a bad baking week not sure. The macarons were over baked, and the other parties we tried a little on the dry trying to remember the others we got. Service was great though, friendly and quick we got our pasties to go so didn't dine in so can't speak for dine in service. Ambiance was nice and they have a piano you can play. I'd give them another if we go back and see if it's better!

Their coffee was great and the amount of pastries available was insane. I ended up taking two different type of croissants for the road and a coffee. Delicious good portions a bit pricey but what isn't these days.
