Service is top notch here. I’m not a French pastry expert, but everything we tried during our stay at Hotel Bellclaire was excellent and very fresh. Nicely done espresso drinks made with care by a guy who knows his stuff — he looks like an octopus the way he multi-tasks around that machine. Very cheerful staff and smiling faces all around, mark of well run shop.

Update... reduced the stars by one... The quality of the foundational ones like baguette and butter croissant are still there... But some fancier versions are not at par... also be careful when you go... it gets very crowded in the morning, due to hotel guests having breakfast from this place. Very long lines...Original: Great little neighborhood patisserie with all the yummy essentials... croissants, quiche, sandwiches, macarons, and bread... There is a few tables, so you may need to take it to go.Vegetarian options: Several pastry optionsDietary restrictions: Gluten based products that are premade... So may not be possible for modicationParking: Paid street parking if you can find itKid-friendliness: Small placeWheelchair accessibility: You may want to sit outside

One of my favorite cafes around in the neighborhood. Their croissants are so flakey and delicious loveee them! All the women who work there are so kind too. The place is so cute you really feel like you're in Europe when you visit here. Definitely go and get a croissant (honestly their plain one is my favorite it's so simple) and get a macaroon as well!

I did not like it :( Got a croissant sandwich and one of their pastries. The pastry was much more sweet that I thought and not soft at all (you could not cut with a fork), the sandwich was greasy and average overall. Having said that I am a picky person when it comes to bakeries and tried some of the best ones, so this might be okay still to get a treat or a quick lunch; but certainly not a 5 star!Serve was fast and staff were friendly. Place is clean.
