Paris Baguette

I’m officially obsessed with this bakery. Every time I visit Atlanta, it is a MUST to drop by here and when I leave, I make sure I take some goodies back home. I like this bakery over Sweet Hut because when it comes to sweet treats, my taste buds prefer their French styled desserts (though I prefer Sweet Hut for its savory baked goods).
My favorites include the croissant donuts, fruit pastries, blueberry pastries, crème brûlée bombolones, and their cream cheese donuts. They also have these giant shaved ice desserts, which you’re going to need someone to share with. We tried the Earl Grey shaved ice dessert and it was amazing, especially if you’re a tea lover. I enjoy all their specialty coffees and green tea lattes. They also have seasonal drinks like the red bean latte and hot horchata.
The only thing is I wish that they had WiFi because it would be the perfect place to study. Either way, they’re still 5 stars in my book and the staff is always nice and super helpful. Stop by here in the morning when all the goodies come out fresh and there’s a wider selection. Enjoy!

I just want to say that this place is the bomb! I came here for the first time because people be telling me that this place was great. The managers were so respectful and kind and took me through the process and helped me pick the exact things that I wanted. I did take a look around the store and things seemed a bit pricey, however their food was delicious especially the pastries! They categorized the fruit pastries in a small blue box so it doesn’t get messed up.
My overall experience was great at this place and big props to the managers for being so supportive. I definitely recommend this place to others and try out their pastries.

What is wrong with the smoothies!!! I always order the strawberry smoothie, and it was always good. However, this time, the smoothie tastes completely like syrup and super sweet. I’m kind of angry with their new recipe. Please bring back my original strawberry smoothie because this new version is awful!

Grab what you can before its all gone. I came here at late night and most of their pastries were gone. Luckily there were last 4 puddings left. I’ve tasted Paris Baguette in Korea, Singapore and now Georgia. The pudding tastes the same but the breads and cakes slightly different. Not the best but average acceptable. Paris Baguette is a Korean chain bakery, although the pastries look Parisian, the taste of the pastries are very Korean-​like, not too sweet to cater Asians.
I will definitely come back again for more pastries, and of course the pudding. Price wise, it is almost the same in these 3 different countries. Quite expensive but worth it.

So this is sort of funny, at least it is to me.
I had bookmarked this place and wanted to take my little sisters as soon as I got the chance. Well, chance arrived; I had the girls sleep over at my house over the weekend. On Saturday night, I let them see the Unilocal page and they were really excited. They wanted to go right there and then. Unfortunately, living in the boondox, its not as easy as saying «ok» and packing everyone in the car. I have to sit and think about the time it’s going to take me to get there (about 35 min) and then hope they have out fresh pastries and that the place is not packed… So no, we didn’t go right there and then. Instead I let them know that we would go for «Brunch» (we wake up around 11am) and Brunch we did…
We got there around 12:30 on Sunday; the girls were in heaven. Not knowing exactly what to do and overwhelmed with excitement, we walked around and looked at all the goods. «Wow, look at that chocolate crossaint» «Omg look at the famous Cronut, Omg no wait look at this fruit tart» After gazing through the selection, we made our way back to the door and each got a tray. We each got about 3 or 4 pastries and I decided to try this veggie sandwich that was sliced in 4 pieces (one for each of us, SCORE!) The employees I noticed were kinda starring at us… I think in sort of disbelief? When we got to the counter, his mouth sort of dropped while asking if it was all together. LOL. why yes it is… I had read about the almond velvet iced tea and knew that Matt would love it, so I ordered that as well. Oh wait, and as I made my way to the counter the girls barricaded me and made me get a macaroon, because it was salted caramel… I’m obsessed with anything salted caramel so of course I had to get it. Our grand total was about $ 53
We sat in a corner booth and the girls were about to dive in when I was like «omg wait, I have to take pictures!» … :Took pictures: We could now eat. Literally everything I chose, I loved. The cronut was delightful, as I thought it would be. I didn’t notice the lemony zest until Matt pointed it out… Obviously the lemon taste wasn’t overpowering, which is good. The cronut I got had crème and was a bit messy to eat, but so what. We all loved our choices with some exceptions. The salted caramel macaroon just didn’t do it for me, my sisters ended up finishing the little thing. The girls each got a pinkish raspberry ball thing and they took a bite and didn’t finish it. That was a poor choice, I think. Matt got something called the Frank bread or something, it was basically bread baked with a hotdog… he didn’t care for it much; I laughed at him and said that too was sort of a poor choice with so many other things to pick from… He loved the almond velvet tea, by the way.
So when we were done eating, Matt said, «you know, its sad that after spending $ 50 bucks, I’m still hungry» My sisters and I agreed. It then hit me, the employees were probably stunned we got so many things. I’m sure people don’t come here to fill up on pastries as breakfast or lunch… I think this is meant to be a treat, a snack or pick me up… LOL… and wouldn’t you know… as we looked around. that’s exactly what people were doing. Enjoying their coffees and one, max — two goodies. But we were gluttons who over indulged, in sugar and as if that wasn’t bad enough we ended up leaving here and going somewhere else to have lunch!
I loved this place!

I consider myself to be a cronut connoisseur, I’ve had my fair share of them and this place by far had the best cronuts I’ve ever had. It was so flaky you could hear the crunch when you picked it up, and the vanilla cream tasted fresh, not like a frosting or overly sweet. Only $ 4 too, pretty amazing deal. If you’re in the Atlanta area or passing through you need to try it!

«Let’s skip out on the wiki facts and focus on the food. I’m trying to find out what to order on the Unilocal app before the server gets back.»
[Time & Date of visit]: Many weekday nights and weekend afternoons
[Party Size]: 2 – 4
[Location/​Ambiance]:
Directions & Parking — Getting into the plaza when heading northbound on Buford Hwy can be a challenge when the road is busy. The shop is located right before the light and at times residents of the nearby apartment, one drive way over can be rushing out while you are in the midst of making a left turn. Play it safe and be patient.
Parking availability varies at different times I feel. Prime time outing hours might leaving you driving around the building a bit. It’s a bit cramped so, if any d-​bag can’t seem to park within the lines, someone might be losing an opportunity at a space. If you’re just grabbing and going, the three spaces in the front are for you.
Inside — Lighting is pretty bright, just due to the way the lighting highlights the baked goods I think. The long running booth is more open, as I feel the four top tables are just way to close to each other and you’ll have to request your neighbor to scoot up if you are leaving /​heading to get your order.
[Service]:
Self serve. Order and pick up at the counter. There’s also a station for more napkins, plastic utensils, coffee stirrers and other various condiments.
The hot drinks are given more time to prepare vs the cold /​iced drinks I’ve noticed at times.
If your baked good is a little cold or you prefer something hot, the cashiers usually can accommodate nuking something in the microwave for you.
[Food Highlights]:
Not a vast selection of sweets such as Sweet Hut. Usually there are some new items if you’re willing to give it a try. Though some items I don’t think I would order again. But I have more of a sweet tooth so tastes can vary.
Things I usually like to order from here that are usually consistent are the cronuts, blueberry chiffon cake /​slice, chai latte, and almond velvet iced tea.
{Summary}:
Though other states have newer food items from their Paris Baguette, which I see postings from Instagram. This location has a slight delay before it becomes available. Overall, if you want something not as crowded by volume of people, and prefer more hot drinks I would recommend PB. 3.5 stars.

The shop is absolutely adorable. I also loved the uniforms the workers were wearing. We had came at nine so not much was left, but we had the vanilla royal pudding, a strawberry/​green tea cake, and some chocolate ganache I believe.
The royal pudding was alright. Very light and smooth, but was almost four dollars for a tiny bit from what I remember.
The green tea cake was pleasant, however, I didn’t taste any green tea at all. The chocolate cake was pleasant as well. Both was around 5 dollars each.
Nothing we had was bad. They were all good, but for the price… I don’t think I’ll be coming here that often. There are so many other dessert shops that have larger portions or cheaper prices. Nothing at Paris had me feeling like I’d crave it in the future. I feel like you are definitely paying for the brand.

Although this place is fancy looking, and is certainly reflected through it’s pricing, I just think it is average. Why? Because of the taste of their breads and cake.
Honestly, their cake decorations are cute, very cute and marketable. However, the taste of other cakes I’ve had, taste better. So, it depends on what you are looking for in a cake. Do you only care that it looks pretty and is cute? Or do you actually care that the cake taste is delicious but may not appear as cute?
I’m going with taste, so, I think taste can be improved. However, I did enjoy their Almond Velvet Tea drink that I had for the first time. It was refreshingly sweet. I warn you on the sweetness because it took me back by surprise when I first tried it. Then, if you give it a little bit of time, it does mellow out a bit? :D If you’re craving for something sweet, and cold, this is the drink for you :)

One day, we got a little tired of Sweet Hut’s pastries, so we decided to try out this fancy Korean bakery. We’ve had:
Croissant Donut (aka Cronut) — greasy, but still tastes very good
Strawberry peanut pastry — very peanutty, great taste
Green tea cake — the green tea flavor was barely there, meh
Orange pistachio pastry — did not like the candy orange on this, meh
The prices for their pastries are definitely on the pricier side for a more upscale presentation. We still prefer going to SweetHut for the better value. Very limited parking too!

It is so easy to pass by this place, but try not to.
They have a good array of sweet bread types and some savory kind. Their cakes are very beautiful, although can get pricey.
I do wish that they would give out samples like Windmill Café does, so that gives new patrons a chance to sample their products, but it’s not really a big deal.
The only thing I have tried so far is their mocha cake. DELISH. Not too sweet, but still sweet enough. The taste of the chocolate and coffee blended well. It was rich, but not overwhelming. Very delicious.
I was enticed by so many other things they have at the store, so I will make a point to come back and try their other stuff.
They do have places to sit inside, but not as big as windmill café. Their parking lot may be able to accommodate 20 – 30 cars total. When I went there on a Friday afternoon, they were not busy at all especially in comparison to Sweet Hut.

I am a big big fan of Paris Baguette. Actually, it ranked No. 1 for pastries in Atlanta. So despite lack of wifi and okay coffee, it’s a five-​star bakery.
Most of the small pastries cost $ 2-​$ 3 dollars. You can even get 3 macaroons in a box under $ 4. Also, they almost have the best presentations for every single pastries (IMHO). Well, Alon’s bakery has the same level too. These two bakeries are of the top tier of bakeries in Atlanta.
I tried their birthday cake last week. The buttercream was soo fluffy and HEAVENLY, directly made me come back the next week. Then I found Baumkuchen, a tree cake with multiple layers. They are selling for $ 12, and it’s probably more than 12 layers! Paris Baguette is the only place selling them in town, because it would take a lot of time to bake those layers.
So far, I haven’t had any pastry of low quality there. All of them are yummy and fresh. Their espresso drinks are mediocre. But since they shine on pastry so much, I’ll give them five stars.

Yo. I only come here for one thing. Cronuts. Very cool place. If you want a place to grab a coffee/​semi sweet and chit chat, this is a good place. Something different than going to Starbucks or Caribou. Probably NOT the ideal place to study for two reasons: 1) It’s a place to chit chat and this place is louder than the Starbucks locations and Caribou locations in Atlanta. 2) Seating is very limited. Not many tables, usually pretty packed, and no bar seating.
This is definitely a pretty pricey bakery. I got two cronuts, some other pastry, taro tea, and a cookie drink and the bill was $ 20+. The cronuts are $ 4/​piece I believe. But if you haven’t tried one, IT’S WORTH IT! Definitely not something you should buy every day unless you are the very person selling these expensive circular disks of fried joy, but you should try it. Treat yo self.
I’ve been to several other Asian influenced bakeries off Buford Hwy and off Pleasant Hill and this is the only place I’ve seen selling cronuts. These gems may be sold else where but I haven’t found them.

Parking lots sucks they don’t have wifi, but the people, atmosphere and baked goods are 5 stars! Closest you will get to Paris in Georgia. The strawberry cream filled croissant is my favorite and the coffee is not bad…

I came here to buy a cake for a friend’s birthday and was pleased to see the variety and availability of the cakes. Their cakes are beautiful and are priced around 30 – 40 dollars. We ended up buying the green tea blueberry cake which was soft, creamy, and delicious. I love these cakes because unlike most American bakeries, they are not covered in overly sweet thick frosting and moist mushy cakes.
I also ended up buying a load a bread and a walnut cream bread which both are delicious. I didn’t know, but they have a card where you can collect stamps for each loaf of bread you buy — that’s cool.
My only complaint about this place is that when I was here, I did catch a little fly in the bread area that made me not want to buy anything that’s sitting out without a wrapper (luckily the loaf of bread and walnut cream bread are both in wrappers already).

I remember when there was one a long time ago in Duluth… And the unfortunately closed. They opened this one… I don’t know why this location. It is out of the way of everything and so far. They do have wifi, but they don’t give it out. i don’t know why. So not good for studying. It’s a cute place– mostly for chit chatting. Not much seating. The drinks are pretty good. My friend and I came here before he left for New York and the lights went out for a good bit. We sat in the dark and just talked. We didn’t know how fast time went by and talked until we literally got kicked out.
I wish this place was closer. The parking space is really small.

Do not be fooled like we were. This is NOT a French bakery! It is a standard Buford hwy type place with boring coffee. I also was disappointed that they only have paper to go coffee cups. Don’t want to sound snobby but I ordered a macchiato and it can in a dixie cup with paper handles.
If you want a quiet, café type atmosphere then this is not the place for you.
We will not be coming back here.

Paris Baguette is one of the newer Korean bakeries in the community. Though there was another Paris Baguette in Duluth, it closed down way back in the days.
It has a modernized décor with blue, white and metal theme collaborating inside.
I dropped by yesterday to buy some toast and decided to get some bingsoo as well.
Their butter infused easy toast bread is one of the best I’ve tried. It is crunchy on the outside and very soft on the inside even after being toasted. The buttery scent also adds a nice touch.
I tried Paris Baguette’s bingsoo for the first time yesterday and it definitely surpassed my expectations. PB’s bingsoo was one of the better ones compared to the ones I’ve had at other Korean cafes.
Portion size was huge with huge chunks of multiple fruits including a big scoop of ice cream on top drizzled with strawberry sauce.
Definitely worth a try for anyone that’s looking for a cold refreshment.

So, if I understand you correctly there’s a Parisian-themed…South Korean… bakery in Doraville, GA? Say what now?!
This place came up when I searched for «desserts» on Unilocal one night. After reding all the great reviews, I just knew I had to check PB out! Plus I heard they had cronuts, the sinfully delicious croissant/​doughnut mash-​up that had me at «hello» ! So, although this was a bit of a trek for us just for dessert, I had a feeling it would be well worth the trip and I was not wrong!
Just pulling up in front of the bakery, especially at night, you get the feeling that you’re in for a unique experience. The glass front of the building and the bright, blue illuminated logo featuring the eiffel tower add to the feeling that you’re stepping into a cute, little shoppe in the heart of Paris.
Upon entering, you’re greeted by the yummy SMELLS typical of any bakery but the SIGHTS are something a little more special. The desserts in Paris Baguette are so pretty you almost don’t want to eat them. I said, ALMOST! My eyes darted from case to case finding it almost impossible to choose what I wanted. I said, ALMOST!
I ended up choosing two small, round doughnuts each with a different filling inside, a sweet-​potato churro-​looking pastry, a cheese danish with almonds, something called «royal pudding» in a cute, little jar, a slice of chocolate cake that I don’t remember the exact name of and a latte to wash it all down. I did see the Cronuts but they didn’t look too appealing to my disappointment. There were only three left in the case and they looked like they’d been picked over and roughed up to me. I decided to hold off on getting one, maybe next time.
We could’ve taken our desserts to go but I wanted to sit and enjoy the experience. It was such a treat to try each dessert, they were all unique so it felt much more exciting than visiting a typical bakery. We enjoyed all our desserts and also lusted after every other dessert that passed by our table. We decided that next time we MUST try the shaved ice bowls, they’re only available during the summer and they looked fantastic!!!
I’ll review everything individually but please note that I don’t remember the specific names of most of the desserts I ordered so I’ll describe them as best I can.
Round doughnuts – Sugary, cinnamon-​y sweet, one had a sticky, chewy center reminiscent of Mochi and the other had a cream cheese center, they were both delicious.
Chocolate cake– Very light, not dense and rich like most chocolate cakes and it was layered with chocolate mousse. What I liked most about it was that there was a surprise inside… crispy, little wafer balls, that gave it an unexpected crunch. Very good!
Cheese Danish – Probably my favorite dessert of the night. It was chewy with a superbly creamy center and the almonds gave it a great crunch.
Royal Pudding (this name I remember) — A very light pudding reminiscent of crème brûlée with a layer of (something similar to) caramel on bottom. Yum!
Sweet potato churro– It looked and tasted like a churro, just not as good…
Latte– delicious!
I very much enjoyed this spot and I’m looking forward to my next visit to Paris Baguette!

I stopped here with a few girlfriends over the weekend and I think the quality and variety of their treats have improved and I can seriously dig it now!
I’ve really come to love their signature velvet iced tea drinks – I favor the orange over the almond. I also love all their new pastries, especially the ones filled with fruit or their special cream. They’ve definitely developed a fan base. As we sat and indulged in our snacks and teas, swarms of patrons came in and out of the café, and we even had trouble finding parking on our way in. I admire them for constantly switching up and improving the menu with pastries and drinks and enticing its patrons to come back for more!

Paris Baguette is my favorite bakery. I am French the first time, I went at Paris Baguette, I thought I was in France the taste is the same. The pastry is very very very good. Also is not expensive.
