Lovely atmosphere. Came for tea and cake and it was so nice !!
Nothing French about this place. Nothing was tasty. Wouldn’t go again. The only positive is that it’s located in Whitney. Éclair is of Dunkin’ Donuts quality.

It’s not what I expected. The service is not well trained. Our order was partislly forgetten. The food is at diner’s level. Nothing special. Prices are high for this quality/service.

We booked a table for 2:00. We’re an hour early, which is our mistake. Still, about 12 tables were empty and were not taken while we had a take away drink. So shy couldn’t we be seated? Very disappointed.
I had been standing in line for takeout for quite a while, only to be told by a staff member — right before it was finally my turn — that I was in the “wrong line” and should queue on the opposite side. Several people ahead of me had placed their orders without any problem, so why was it suddenly an issue when it came to me? The woman in front of me was served, but I was completely ignored and denied the chance to order. I refuse to waste my time lining up all over again on the other side, so I left without buying anything. If the line was wrong, they should’ve made that clear from the very beginning. Absolutely unacceptable. I will never set foot in this place again.

I dined for lunch alone a few weeks ago and enjoyed my experience. The server recommended I try the French Hot Chocolate and it was incredible. I also had a onion flatbread that was also very tasty. The service was excellent. Host, server and management were all outstanding and friendly.

Lunch with friends visiting from Munich. Had a reservation, got there 10 minutes early but was seared by myself waiting (no “your party has to be complete to be seated”). Very nice many even for a pescatarian like me. Not exactly a bargain. Lunch is easily $25 or $30 for the main dish. But the food is good and the atmosphere is lovely. I am partial to natural night at lunch and Frenchette Bakery is flooded with natural light. The service was solid from the host to the busboy.

Lovely and cosy atmosphere, delicious and fresh foods, very welcoming staff. I really like the style of the handsome man at the reception. ❤️
How delicious can a scone possibly be? This was, without exaggeration, the best scone I’ve ever had in my life. Thank you.

Really nice place and service is impeccable. The food is good but over priced for bakery style food. Paris will be falling head over feet when I'll say I paid 34$ for a croque madame! (grilled cheese) Should you want French food in a real French experience I'd choose wisely.

I was with a friend, we both just ordered the turkey sandwich. it was ice cold probably indicating pre-made for the take- out counter. whatever that special bread was tasted odd. neither of us finished them. 2 sandwiches and two cups of coffee came to $60.00. what a ripoff!

Nice pastries (although the savoury one could definitely have done with being warmed up.) OK coffee. Irritatingly unfair service in the seating area: we were banished on entry to a side table next to a row of hot ovens while other customers with takeaway coffees and pastries (like ours) trooped in and sat at the more comfortable tables without being challenged. Pricey. Final tiny gripe: automated water tap in restroom v insensitive and stingy.
