Magnol is an incredibly standout French bakery nestled in houston- there aren’t any other shops in this parking lot but it’s usually packed and filled with patrons. The quality of the food is amazing, off the charts delicious, and authentic. Baked to perfection. The bread is superb as well, especially if you’re a carb enthusiast like me. Butters and cream cheese are imported from France, as well as well as confiture and candies on the wall!Some highlights for my family from the case: the baba (w citrus liqueur) and soft whipped cream was delicious and airy, melts in your mouth! The eclairs here are to die for, my favorite is the coffee. London fog (I add espresso to mine) but tea is also from republique de the, a famous French brand as well. Quality and taste are outstanding and worth the drive! Chef Otto and team are gifted and talented, so glad to have found Magnol!Parking: Complete lot available to Magnol on weekends!Kid-friendliness: Family friendly :)

The ambiance is warm and welcoming, a perfect spot for a casual meet-up or some quiet alone time. Their pastries are a real highlight. Whether you're in the mood for a croissant or something more indulgent, you won't be disappointed. The staff is friendly and the coffee, aromatic and rich, complements the bakery items beautifully.

The BEST croissants! Why? They are irresistably flaky on the outside yet moist on the inside. Not dry. The country bread loaf was REAL bread, thick and chewy, with a rim of crisp crust. Served with a generous slab of butter sprinkled with sea salt or topped with strawberry peach jam and accompanied by good coffee....the world feels like a better place! Have put this place on my list of regulars! Will return to try the fancy pastries.
So delicious croissant ? very fresh and it gona melt in your mouth! One star was taken as I went there in the morning and they were already running our almond croissant and coffee !
Excellent breads and baguettes. The best we've had and made with European ingredients instead of Monsanto GMO.

The location itself is good - pleasant, clean, nice staff.however, the pastries did non convince me. The chocolate au pain could be a bit softer and have more filling. The cream filling of the puff was too sweet. The madeleines were too hard and also a bit too sweet.

Love the desserts here and quite surprised with a wonderful French coffee place and patisserie with great atmosphere. A must visit for everything on the menu but is worth it just for the croissants and the baguettes.
Delicious pastries, and good coffee. What else can you ask for, we enjoy everything we had, the eclair and the almond crossaint were my favorites, despite the wait on the line everything was worth the wait, looking forward to comeback again soon.

A magnificent French bakery with beautifully authentic and delicious offerings. We've had a variety of croissants, the mille feuille, opera cake... You'll be delighted by anything at Magnol. It gets busy, but they have an efficient process for moving the line quickly.
