Very good latte and peppermint tea. Cozy decor and lots of space for meeting friends or doing work

Got the prosciutto and manchego sandwich. Gave one slice of prosciutto too much mustard and the bread was super dry. Really disappointing! Also got a lemonade iced tea that tastes like saline water. Hot chocolate was good which is why I’m giving 3 stars instead of 2.

This is a great LPQ. José Carlos, the waiter is one of the best waiters I have ever had anywhere. He's super nice, helpful and resourceful. He suggested I get the hazelnut flute toasted and it was so delicious that way and he makes the best hot mocha drinks.

Food: We ordered scallion and bacon skillet and the eggs were very well done which is not how a skillet typically is (eggs are usually runny). Ordered their breakfast sandwich and the salad on the side was delicious but unfortunately they forgot to add the bacon which we requested which was rather unfortunate.Service: Severely understaffed. Noon on a Sunday and they only had one server for the entire restaurant. Our server was clearly overwhelmed and though very nice and great, it was definitely difficult for her to wait on us properly as she had to wait on every single other table (and the place is not small). We went to another location (on Grand street) earlier and saw they had similar issues (we left because the cashier was extremely rude when we were confused about how to order because they were not taking table orders).I have been coming to different locations for over a year now and it seems like recently they have lost workers and it has caused their quality of service and food to go down significantly. A shame because it was a favorite spot to go for a decently priced meal.

My absolute favorite spot!!!! I go there every single morning for a hot honey lemon ginger drink, sometimes pastry and oatmeal every weekend . The service is exceptional. They are a very warm and friendly group of professionals that enjoy their jobs and treat their customers with kindness. Pierre is usually the representative that takes care of me and always knows what I want without having to say.but they are all great—- including the managers. p.s. their lentil soup is the best in the city!!
Vegetarian options: I am a vegetarian and they have excellent options!!

I stop by every morning for breakfast to go and the energy that the team brings is positive and warm. Pierre, in particular, takes great care in ensuring my coffee is right! Would recommend 10/10!

Inside was very comfortable and not so crowded for a Sunday morning. We, as 5 people, enjoyed the big table. Food was delicious and each ingredient was fresh, especially berries, kale, avocado, etc. Bowls are bigger than my expectations. Coffee was great! Chai tea latte was ok. Gluten-free chocolate chip cookies are amazingly cooked :)

I usually come to this location while I’m around the area either for dine in or to get a quick snack, I would disagree with almost all the negative reviews here, they are always very welcome and managers always very attentive, I don’t think I’ve never seen a manager not present. This is not a 5 starts restaurant since the food is very basic but the employees are always nice and the place is very clean, but I’m quite disappointed that I passed by yesterday and saw that they turned their bakery into a dining room. I’ve been looking forward for the baking classes but it looks like it’s not going to happen.

Great place for a quick brunch, the server JC is amazing. Shout out to the management team as well they are amazing always hustling! I have no complains whatsoever.

No walnuts or honey for the oatmeal. Egg was overcooked on the breakfast bowl. They gave half our order to the next table. Something is not right here. It’s a shame because the one in lower Manhattan was great! I do not recommend this place.
The place is really cool! But the seats are dining only except for the big table. I liked my coffee and pastry.

Le Pain needs to train their servers to not discriminate and treat their customers better. For example, I, a poc, went to order a pastry and a tea from them today. A white server made my tea, didn't tell me it was done, immediately went to serve the white customer behind me. As they were handing off the white customer's tea, I asked them where my drink was. They very quickly rolled their eyes and told me it's done and on the far end of the counter. I am confused as I never saw anyone else asked to pick up their drink from the other end of the counter, and the white customer behind me got their drink handed to them.I have been a regular for over a year. TBH most of their front servers are like this, very resentful to customers, extremely slow, often times don't know what they are doing. Their pastries are mostly good. But I don't like how they treated different customers differently. I would highly recommend avoiding this business, at least this location as much as possible.

Freezing AC. Manager 5 stars. Wait staff clueless. Cappuccino scalding. Frittata not hot nearly warm. They replaced. Found hair in food at end of meal. Not mine. Waitress said Oh really. Train your staff to know their products and focus on customer service. Mist likely will not return. Too cold.

Love this place and come here often, but really, how can you search toast and eggs and say, "we don't have butter"????

The least nice PQ I’ve seen anywhere. Interior is closer to a fast food place than a PQ. We wanted to order one of the bowls and they were missing an ingredient or another from everything. Overall the foods weren’t fresh.
