We stopped here on a whim and were pleasantly surprised. There are a lot of flavors from which to choose, both macarons and chocolates. They have a nice pairing set up, a flavored macaron paired with the same flavored chocolate.We only tried the macarons, four different kinds, and they were delicious.The place is clean, but small, so don't plan on staying there for long.The staff is really friendly and helpful with the products and how to pair them (if you want).It's a great spot to grab a sweet or two and carry on about your day.

Absolutely fantastic. Gorgeous and delicious macarons and gourmet chocolates that you can mix and match six for $15. The packaging it comes in is lovely and the decor is everything one could want!

Absolutely wonderful business! Went on a cold February day for some hot chocolate (best hot chocolate I've ever had, creamy and smooth). Very kind and welcoming atmosphere with some cozy seating. Mom came with me and had a chai latte, very reasonably priced. On our way to Le Macaron a kind gentleman asked if we had money to spare for a cup of coffee. We weren't able to help and continued on our way, however didn't stop thinking about the situation. We ended up deciding to see if we could get him a coffee and the owner gave us a cup for him on the house. She said she always trys to give a helping hand whenever possible. We tracked down the gentleman and were able to give him his coffee. Thank you so much for helping us give! This business is a great representation of what's right in the world and is run by a very kind owner. 10+ stars.

Food was excellent. Ordered through DoorDash as a gift. Part of the order was missing. Called the store and they made it right. We really appreciate the customer service and will definitely be visiting them again.

We stopped in on a whim to warm up while walking around the town last week. The employee did a wonderful job explaining all the different types of chocolates and recommended delicious choices to have. I still can't believe how beautiful the candy looked! But better yet, the taste matched the pretty designs. Looking forward to coming again next year!

Super cute interior, the macarons here are fantastic but that's not all they have! Their chocolate truffles are to die for and I had a pink eclair and rose French soda for my pink date ???

I know macarons well and this is mediocre at best. They let their shells sit too long in the resting stage creating an over-oily texture. Broken shells happen, but I've never seen a business use so many.The biggest knock is the most important, flavor. Chocolate Banana taste as artificial & inaccurate as banana Laffy Taffy. Strangely their best flavor was Basil (though not my preference).Cute decorations & merch (though appreciated) don't make up for falling short with the foundation of your business.Hot chocolate taste like water. A small should not be the price it is.Parking: Finding a spot is next to impossible. Walk, bike, or bus.

I’m sad to say that the treats we got were terrible! The 3 different macarons were flavorless and the texture was far off. The Napoleon was stale and had no flavor. The staff was friendly but had NO IDEA what they were doing. One older lady kept calling them macaroons…Overall it was a very disappointing experience.

A fun Parisian inspired shoppe with gelato, homemade cookies and candies. They have delicious espresso to cut the sweets. Love the decor inside. Many fun spots for selfies. We had the gelato flight which was a fun way to sample 4 different types of gelato for just $9. Great location in the heart of the action on Monroe Center right across from Rosa Parks Circle. Definitely recommend y'all check it out. Cheers!

Beautiful shop and very sweet owner. She's so welcoming and helpful. There is a wait time but 100%worth it! I will be visiting every time I'm in the area.

Le Macaron just catered my wedding desert and they were absolutely amazing! We received so many compliments on how fresh, soft and great tasting they were. They were easy to communicate with throughout the process and even made an uncommon requested flavor for our small cut cake. They came and set up with multiple stand options to choose from. I will definitely be going back for macaron's and would recommend them for any event for catering.

Got a box of macarons from their booth at the Christkindle market and they are absolutely the worst macarons I have ever tasted. They seemed as if they had been frozen. The outside crumbled as soon as I tried to take one out of the box, the insides were “gummy”. The flavors were odd, almost freezer burnt tasting. Biggest waste of $15!
