La Fournette Reviews
I'm so happy to have found a proper French bakery in Chicago finally! Staff is super friendly, and everyone is greeted with "bonjour" walking in the door. Ils parlent Français! Classic pastry items are all very delicious, croissant, pain du chocolat, almond croissant...etc. They have a good selection of delicious breads, too. During mardi gras season, they have galette des rois!!! You can pick up items to go or eat in. There are several small tables to enjoy your food and drinks...read full review
We got the chocolate pound cake and a pain de chocolat, and 3 types of macarons (mango passion fruit, red velvet, and pistachio). The pound cake was absolutely delicious -- if you're a chocolate person, definitely try it. It's like a cakey brownie that's rich and moist. Out of the macrons, the pistachio was easily the best but they were all delicious. The pain de chocolat was huge and disappointing with the amount of filling. Otherwise, the pastry was crisp and buttery!

Every time I come here I get the best almond croissant I've had since I was in France, and the service is always excellent with very nice happy people. Et, Je peux goûter le beurre de culture !
