As you can see there is quite the variety of options to enjoy with friends + family. Plenty of space to sit inside or outside if you wish! Service was easy, quick and informative.

Quick service at the counter! I got a few of the Chocolats and they were amazing! Rich but not heavy. They were just sweet enough without being overwhelming and they could be enjoyed by both milk and dark chocolate lovers. The ham and Gruyère croissant was a savory delight. Please, treat yourself to this establishment.

I had a bit of a sweet tooth and we were in the area so I ran in. I asked the person behind the counter what the best thing for a chocolate lover would be, and he suggested a chocolate cookie. I selected a lemon tart for myself, and two banana caramels (one for each of us). My husband said he thought the cookie was boring and dry. I tried a bite and have to say I agree! The lemon tart was better, and had a great balance between sweet and tart. The lemon cream was perfect, but the crust was really dry and reminded me more of a cracker than a sweet crust. I also think it was a little over priced. The caramels had a great texture and flavor. They were chewy, but not too hard.

A proper bistro for the francophiles of Minneapolis. The smell authentic, the coffee hot, and the flakiness of desserts... chef's kiss The Kouign Aman was a delight. Flaky and sweet, perfect for a Gallic brekkie, but being Americans we had to have more. The summer tartine was fresh and the quiche decadent. The side salad was tossed with a light coating of a vinaigrette, one could appreciate the crunch and flavor of the lettuce. An array of seating arrangements to dine or lounge. Would be a classy morning date spot.

Okay I have absolutely been sleeping on this place! I have lived in the neighborhood for three years and I just started going here this summer. Pastries are literally so good - I mean they partner with coffee shops all over the city so you know they are good but honestly just going in there to look at the pastry case is a treat without tasting anything. My favorite thing aside from the baked goods is their outdoor patio space. It's this breezy corner in a quiet neighborhood in south Minneapolis with big leafy trees proving enough shade for a comfortable hang on a sunny day. One of my new favorite places to work or read outside with a coffee to sip on and pastry to nibble on. Go here.

Very disappointed with the lack of service and lack of management resolution. We went on Saturday. There were tables, but people that don't respect other diners and instead of seating at a table for when there were 2 people that is very disrespectful.Now, the management also does not care.And I don't care if those disrespectful people get upset because they were going to be told that they should not sit on a table for 6 when they were 2 or in a table for 4 when he was only one.The irresponsible management that only thing that did was that we left with a 7 year-old granddaughter.Of course they don't care, because people will pour in like they usually do without seeing or caring about the reality of the indifferent service.Nobody cares lately. If the food is bad or good, if the service is bad or good they go and ingest food, they don't eat, they don't relax or savor the food, enjoying the taste and the good company and the good moment. Only ingesting the food.There will be no other time there.

Must come here for pastries! There is always a good variety of treats - breads, chocolate, and patisserie. There's fruity and decadent. Coffee is also available and not too miss. If you want a little something special for yourself or a loved one, you must come check out their offerings! I always leave satisfied and love what comes in those boxes!

Such a nice variety of pastries. Some sweet, some savory. Such helpful staff, so efficient and kind.Frequently difficult to find a place to sit and eat. People seem to linger long after they've eaten or finished their beverages. It would be kind if they left after finishing or if the staff would help by freeing up tables for those who would like to sit.
