French Pastry Shop

It's charming It's popular Delicious pastriesBut it's busyAlmond croissants are good

There better french places in Santa Fe. My friends and I went in 40 minutes before close and as we walked in, the person at the register said to the people he was serving "I thought i locked the door ughjdhh" and then proceeded to tell us that they were closing because all the staff wanted to leave early to watch the game. Then they said they'll only give us anything from the front display case only. Everything in the display case looked a day or two old. We got a cake with cherries in it and as we thought, the cherries were rotten. Will NOT be going back. Poor baked goods and poor, POOR service. Don't complain that people are literally in the shop to BUY food during the time when google AND the sign outside has open operating hours. Don't be rude to people that come to buy what you advertise.

Firstly, everyone is allowed to disagree with me. My review is based on my experience. The few things I tasted were very good. Not amazing. Not "omfg whenever I'm in Santa Fe I HAVE to go there and have it again." Just good. Service was adequate. Honestly felt kinda slow, but other than someone trying to cram us into a very crowded corner where we'd literally be touching people we didn't know at the next table and bringing two packs of Dijon mustard when we asked for béchamel sauce, it was fine.For me, the things that just rubbed me the wrong way were that it was so bloody hot in there, so crowded, so cramped, so loud, and so absurdly expensive. Nothing I tasted was good enough to warrant what they were charging for it. With so many other places literally within a minute's walk, I don't see myself purposefully choosing to come to this place again of my own volition. Of course, I'm sure there are those who feel this place is the best place on earth and how dare I have an opinion that doesn't mirror their own. If that's you, then by all means, keep going back; I wish you the best. If, however, loud, cramped, hot, and overly expensive places aren't your jam, hopefully this may give you more information to make an informed decision.

Don't come here.$7.30 for a little pastry. Coffee is warm. And the lady who acts like the owner(Spanish speaking) was rude. They brought me the bill at 4:20pm and telling customers take out only when it is only 4pm. And this lady is mopping the floor while we are sitting at the table. The door is closed already. So we ended up paying $35 for two coffees and two desert. I deserve better service.

The French Pastry Shop is a local staple and I've been going there since I was a child. They have the best French onion soup, very cheesy and the broth is on point. All of the pateries are delicious and very fresh, I usually have a hard time deciding which one to order.

This is a cute shop with lots of little tables. The service was fast and pleasant. They offer sweet and savory crepes, as well as hot and cold sandwiches. And of course, they have a great selection of bakery items. This shop is very easy to find as it's within eyesight of the Plaza. A good place for a light bite.

We changed it up a bit this AM and stopped by the French Pastry Shop for morning coffee. What a good choice... it was good! We had our lattes, and biscotti and a piece of the mushroom quiche. The biscotti was not to sweet, perfect for the coffee. We had the quiche warmed, and it was delicious. Everything was good! It's was crowded, and a steady stream of customers coming in from the hotel and off the street the entire time we were there. Obviously popular, and for a reason, it's good! Recommend the French Pastry Shop...

Got a coffee and a pastry!! It's super freezing out and the smell of their coffee brought me in. Very crowd at 3pm so that's a good sign! The only reason it's not 5 Star. The napoleon is dry and the custard part is tiny filings. Would I have loved to have it more "French" style for sure but the service was so French and they give refill on coffees for free. Definitely great service. I should have went with my gut and got the Opera which has amazing reviews.

What a busy place this shop was when we stopped in for a late lunch. We were able to get a table for two without much of a wait. And the service was good. Veggie crepe for me, baguette sandwich for him. Portions were good! We took our strawberry neopolian dessert home. Everything was yummy!

Service was good and tables were turned for short waits on a holiday weekend. The Almond Croissant was disappointing particularly after eating one at Mille. The Opera was also disappointing but the Black Forest cake closed the gap.
