My favorite sandwich in NY. I'm a Francophile and this is as good as any in France (and I've had many there across several trips). Best baguette I've had in NY. Simple, but perfect.

The best macarons outside of Paris. They had a nice chicken lemon soup, but the last few times I've visited.

Disappointing only because I came here specifically for outside seating but there were bees. Obviously not the business's fault so no stars taken off for that. Ordered a latte with two shots of espresso and chocolate milk, iced. It was ok. Sat inside for a bit and did some work. Not bad

Best almond croissant and french pastries in the area. Coffee is also great! Shady patio to sit outside and enjoy. Can take everything to go as well.

Wow, the best pan aux raisin! Literally, I have tried from 10 other places and it doesn't even come close. The baguettes are great as well. I've tried a few sandwiches and enjoyed them, but the pan aux raisin is definitely the star.

Good but way too expensive.

LOVE their croissants, which are made fresh daily. This is the only place I've found in the city where the croissants actually taste as good as the ones in France. Nowhere else in NY compares!

The owner is charmingly, unapologetically French which gives this little cafe and their homemade pastries even more old world charm

I do like the sandwiches but they seem a bit overpriced. I ordered the salmon which literally only has 3 ingredients, dill being one of them. They were out of dill and didn't think it was important to let me know that. I only realized when I got home, and when I called, they informed me they were out of dill. So my already overpriced 3-ingredient sandwich only had 2 ingredients.

The baguette! Took me back to Europe. Got the Marie Antoinette without cheese. The prosciutto is on the saltier side so not a lot is necessary. The honey and bread goes together extremely well and it is possibly the best baguette I've had in the city.
Cute spot with delicious ice tea selection. The store is cramped but quaint. Its next door to a restaurant. Unfortunately, I could not people watch because the restaurant staff from next door were nose picking on front of the windows. Atmosphere ruined!

I loved paris but didn't get to try great sandwiches that the city is beloved for. At le petit parisien, I could tell that the high quality ingredients were the stars of the show. While I found gainsbourg to be average, I was a huge fan of marie-antoinette. Simplicity always hits home. Can't wait to come back and try every one of their sandwiches (though they are a bit pricey for the size)

This was the perfect spot for breakfast! I felt like I was in Paris. The barista was funny and welcoming.

The Louis XIV is to die for, and it's a beautiful little quaint cafe. Staff very friendly and helpful and they deliver as well!

Cute place in East mid-town. The sandwiches were fresh made. Pretty reasonable price (for NYC) and mom/pop cafe atmosphere. The prosciutto was flavorful as well as the veggie sandwich. So glad this is in a neighborhood I frequent!
