The French Corner Bakery

Super cute bakery! While there's not a ton of unique options, what they do have is of high quality. We tried the:- Vanilla macaron: Classically crispy on the outside & chewy on the inside- Coffee cake: Little too sweet on its own, but perfect with coffee as expected haha- Tiramisu: The standout for me with strong coffee flavor & not too sweet- Blueberry scone: Different from most other scones I've had bc it's much thinner & crunchier, but still enjoyable- Profiterole: Great little balls of choux pastry filled with cream- Almond croissant: Loved it, but tbh I'm a sucker for frangipaneLoved the eclectic ambiance. Super friendly service. 9/10 would recommend!

Such a HIDDEN GEM! This bakery is located in a very unassuming shopping complex. You would never guess that they make THE BEST TIRAMISU you will ever have. I have tried tiramisu from so many places and it does not compare. It's the perfect combination of sweet and cocoa flavored for me. I've had it multiple times, the flavor is consistent every time is always delicious. I'm also a fan of their blueberry danish but you can't go wrong with any of their baked goods. They also have a coffee menu which I haven't tried yet. Other than the baked goods, the service is top tier. The staff are always kind and friendly. The interior decor is whimsical and inviting.

This little out-of-the-way spot is just a delight. Not only is Benjamin a fantastic Master Baker, but he has a wonderful joie de vrie that makes sitting and having a coffee and pastry a great way to spend some time. Tucked out of the way on the back side of this strip mall, you'd not know it was here, and you'd be missing out on great breads, cakes, cookies, and pastries. I'm not a sweet lover, but it's a great way to score points with anyone you know who is. Stop in for an eclair or some individual cakes, or have them cater your wedding with a beautiful cake. Or, do like me, and sit at the quaint tables and chairs, enjoy the richness of a properly prepared croissant, and pretend you're in Europe.

Love this place. The atmosphere, the decor, the breads and the pastries all just right... We will definitely be recommending and returning regularly.

Every time I visit this small bakery, tucked away in the back corner of a little shopping square, the experience is always phenomenal. Not only are all of their baked goods top tier, the service is some of the best I've experienced in the area. The ambience is clean and cozy with some sewing machines used as tables. I have tried quite a few of their offerings and have particularly enjoyed the croissants and cinnamon rolls. The rolls are big and perfectly sweetened with frosting. Every croissant, both sweet and savory flavors is perfect. I tried the ham and cheese sandwich today and loved the addition of jalapeños! If you happen to get there and they've got fresh out of the oven bread - snag some! I was offered a hot baguette (with butter and jelly) and half of it was gone before I got home. The profiteroles are light and fluffy with a sweet cream center. Perfect one bite noms. The only treat I didn't care for was the mini eclair - which seemed like store bought lady fingers used usually for tiramisu. My understanding is there was a change of ownership somewhat recently. While I didn't have the chance to visit this establishment under original ownership, I only have positive things to say about the people I've met. They are so positive and kind! I had a bit of a wait while my sandwich was made and was given a cup of coffee. On another visit, I was offered a taste of their delicious macarons. I will keep returning for the food and friendly service! My wish is to one day see my favorite treat made with laminated dough on the menu: Kouign-amann

I haven't visited the store yet but plan to. We were gifted a lemon pie from here and we were very disappointed with its consistency and taste. The pastry shell was tough and the lemon curd not lemony enough with a rubbery consistency. We tossed half of the pie. We will give it a second chance and visit in person and try other things.

I loved this place! I just came back from Europe and was craving real macarons. I had them made fresh there and they were to die for good! The owner was behind the counter and such a nice man I probably could have talked to him all day. He has a vast knowledge from all over about baking which was another great thing as well. We talked about Europe and New York and those were probably only a few places he has been. He talked about his love for baking and you could really tell he was passionate about it. He had all kinds of pastries and you could tell he had a local following also. I also overheard that for a special event she had used him for the desserts also which I will definitely be doing in the near future. It was truly hard to decide on what to order here. I decided on the raspberry and lemon macarons and he told me to split each and try together and that was truly delightful! I also got a chocolate and caramel macaron. Great suggestion to mix the raspberry and lemon macarons it was delicious. Also he had this peanut butter chocolate dessert with like a Oreo crust which was truly so rich and amazing I will be getting this again. His lemon bars or tarts were also just perfect! The right amount of sweet vs lemon tartness! His black and white cookie was phenomenal also! I don't think I have had one that was almost like a cake like cookie. I truly think anything you get here you can't go wrong with! I'm definitely coming back check hours because I came on weekend which was 9 am to 2 pm on Saturday which is a good time for me.

I cannot say enough good things about this amazing place. The head baker, Norma Garcia, is extraordinarily talented, having trained in the French tradition of boulangerie and patisserie. She was able to prepare a millefeuille cake for me at the last minute for a memorial service, and the result was incredible. The shop is charming and cozy. Go check it out - you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much, Norma, for saving the day!

I ordered a Napoleon cake for my birthday because of the Yelp review and I was so happy I did. The cake was exactly what I wanted. I'm glad they're not closer to Chapel Hill as I would probably be in there at least once a week. I am planning on being back soon. Great job. Thank you guys.

The owner was delightful. She gave me a quick story of how she came to own the business. I had a strawberry and cream croissant which was delicious.
