Adam RobertsAugust 13, 2014Fantastic place, great staff and service. They've gone beyond a number of times to help me out. I've never had anything here that wasn't delicious. It's a bit pricey, but the food is well worth it.
AFAR MediaAugust 4, 2014Ask for the warm croissants….so worth it. If chocolate is not for you, go for the chausson aux pommes, which are just as scrumptious! Read more
- DoubleDeuceJune 22, 2021Don't skip the giant croissant but it is wise to share it. The coffee and breakfast foods are delicious and the seating is great for sharing DC's best gossip.
WayneMarch 3, 2013Come at the right time and you might be lucky enough to get a fresh baguette that's so hot they put a coffee holder on it so you can carry the baguette
The owners is doing something very right! Grab a baguette or croissant on your way through Columbia Heights. Their macaroons are divine too!
The breakfast sandwiches are fucking delicious. I like the #4 combo, eggs, tomato and cheese on nice bun
SophieFebruary 3, 2013Three words: pain au chocolat. Their chili is good, so try to get a cup when they have it! Comes with a sizeable chunk of delicious baguette.
Kevin ArtsDecember 20, 2015Croissants are buttery, flaky, and delicious. Nice spot to chill out and read a book.
Sam LittleMarch 23, 2019Claims to have the best croissants in dc and that’s just.... not true. Solid deli though. Would recommend.- Jamie GravellJanuary 4, 2012Pan au chocolat is amazing! Brioche is great too. Super polite & helpful owners as well. Great addition!
Grand meres, fresh baguettes and Edith Piaf on the radio. Plus, killer iced coffee ☕️🇫🇷
I am glad they opened next door, but I haven't found anything really 'special' about their goods :(
The plain butter croissants are good. Everything else seems somewhat average.
