    Went for the first time and it was a treat for sure. I tried the eclair, chocolate croissant and shared a green salad...everything was delicious.

    This place is so under the radar and it's my favorite lunch spot downtown. Everything tastes so amazing and fresh. Made in house daily. Can never resist the chocolate almond croissant-delicious.

    Try the mini goat cheese éclair: a classic choux pastry shell filled with a divine savory mix of whipped goat cheese, olive oil, thyme and pistachios drizzled with honey. Also available as a sandwich. Read more

    It is comforting to stop in here for a quick cup of coffee and a light lunch, the smell of freshly baked bread reminds me of Europe.

    Croissants come in lots of flavors (e.g. Chocolate cherry, chocolate almond) ... they are better than the waffles

    I am surprised to see people are saying cheap. It is not Wow just OKAY and very OKAY. The almond croissant and chocolate Belgium one is okay. Overall overpriced with some attitude from the owner

    I've never had a pistachio croissant before, and I can't imagine going back to those dark times.

    Chocolate croissants are the specialty here. The bread is fluffy and delicious, Belgian hot chocolate is rich and creamy, and not overly-sweet.

    Eh the macaroons were too heavy (real macaroons are airy and soft) and the croissant was plain and tough. Not my favorite place in Chicago!
