Paul

This is a cute little bakery, but some stuff are really delicious and other things are not that great. First of all their chocolate croissant was delicious. This was so good and had partially melted chocolate chips inside the croissant. The bread was buttery and perfectly flakey.
I also love their ice teas because they are not sweetened and have a really strong tea taste.
I wasn’t a fan of their other desserts that I tried. This place is really cute and a nice place to relax and enjoy some desserts and tea.

I love this little place! I hit it whenever I’m in town for my Francophile fix. The only downside is the mall location, but once inside you can almost forget you’re in Tyson’s. Has the feel of a neighborhood Patisserie you might stroll into on the Marais. Have a little patience with the young staff, they try very hard but tbe system there for ordering and prep is not the most efficient. It’s ok because we’re in Paris! So sit back, relax with a delicious coffee and light as air croissants, the pastry are to die for… leave your diet at the door and indulge in the creamy napolean or fruit tart. I also really like their peasant lunches, baguette sandwiches are all really bursting with flavor, mostly from their delicious cheese and the bread itself is crunchy and light.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot… save room for a macaroon or two… or three… So hard to choose… C’est bon!

Great find. Fresh and tasty… great service. We had pastry for breakfast. The coffee was very good. I would definitely recommend this shop.

At one time I was a regular of Paul overseas, so I was thrilled to find this branch, one of only a few in the US. The quality of the food I had was excellent. I really enjoyed the simple turkey and cheese sandwich I because the baguette was perfect. Our table shared a variety of pastries and all were stellar. I liked the chocolate éclair the best. Paul has a great reputation abroad, and this branch did not disappoint.

Parisian setting café in Gallaria mall Tyson corner missing the strong aroma of Paris, but you would start inviting your first memory of that great city, you head move up to view the original fine paintings also you will talk about the comfy and luxury chairs and sofas, Paul did it well in my book, great desserts and sweets are well presented, staff are informative and friendly, I would have easily giving it a 5 star however our coffee is not what I have expected, served a little weaker for my taste and not the right temperature for me simply old.

If you’ve never waited 45 minutes for a pre made sandwich definitely come by this horrible place.

The first Paul’s I went to was three months ago was in Massachusetts inside a mall. They were busy and the sandwich was so fresh and tasty. As you know, the bread is hard if it’s not very fresh. I have been to this location 3 times, and this is first time I ordered a sandwich where it actually feels fresh. I also noticed they stack their sandwiches; I assume the top is older and they want to sell first. I even saw a burnt apple turnover on display.
As for customer service, I could see how other reviewers pointed out a language barrier. Last visit, the guy could not understand my questions. So I was like, never mind and left with what I ordered.

Quaint little French café found in the ridiculously fancy mall known as Tyson’s Galleria.
Had a Gallete de rois almond which had a proper flaky crust and some good almond flavor. I found it to be quite buttery. While I don’t think it’s the best option in the mall of what I tried, it’s definitely not the worst.
I would downgrade it to a 3 because the price was quite high for it but the mall speaks for itself, in terms of this place.
3.5

I wish I could give them more stars because their pastries and macaroons are incredible… However the customer service was the worst I’ve ever experienced. I had to repeat myself 4 times because there was a huge language barrier. As I’m pointing at the pastry while saying two chocolate croissants and he looks at me confused… same happened with the apple turnovers and raisin pastry.
Now to the register… I get charged $ 19.95 for mini macaroons Christmas. I had asked for the ones labeled mini macaroons $ 17.95… I tell the lady at the register the mix up and she says, no the ones you picked are $ 19.95. I said, well the label says $ 17.95, i want those and she says those are the traditional ones and we’re out.
I was treated so poorly. I’m so disappointed. Won’t go back.

Unforgettable chocolate custard-​filled chocolate éclair. Average sandwiches on freshly baked, crunchy mini baguettes. The downside is that guests linger at the tables for hours, so if you plan to eat here, there’s a good chance you’ll have to settle for a small tabletop alongside the shop – in the mall entryway.

When I spotted this cute little patisserie, @PAUL_USA, in Tyson Galleria, I took an instant liking. The patisserie is small and quaint and they have various French sweet offerings. The one item that caught my eye right away was their macarons. They have mini macarons and large macarons of various flavors. From pistachio to vanilla, they all looked yummy but I ended up getting a large raspberry macaron from here. Aside from the macarons I also got to try their chocolate croissants.
The chocolate croissant had a flaky exterior and soft interior with chocolate. It was a nice little breakfast treat. It would be perfect with coffee but alas I didn’t have a chance to try their coffee here.
The raspberry macaron was one that I saved for an afternoon delight and delightful indeed it was. I loved the overall crisp and freshness of the macaron. The sweet raspberry filling had just the hint of tartness. At $ 5 for a large macaron, it can seem pricey but definitely a treat worth trying once.
I have heard Paul is all over Paris and though I have yet to visit Paris, I am glad to at least see them right in Virginia at the Tyson Galleria. This nice little café offering specialities from Paris fits right in at the luxurious and classy Tyson Galleria. Their offerings are classically French and simply delicious.

I prefer this location over the one in Georgetown. The staff here is much more friendly and attentive. Paul has the most delicious French pastries imaginable. The croissants are so buttery and flaky. The macarons are also a favorite of mine, especially the coconut and coffee flavors (I wish they sold these flavors in the larger size). My only complaint is the price… definitely takes a toll on my wallet when I’m shelling out nearly $ 6 for one macaron. Overall, Paul wins my heart and stomach every time I stop by.

Have been here at this location a few times. Its location is convenient, but the place feels cramped at times. The tables take a while to be cleaned and the seats are very close to each other. I definitely prefer their other locations more.
The baked goods, sandwiches, omelettes, and coffee were decent. The staff were efficient and some were extremely helpful while others were mediocre.
I only come back for the convenient location and ability to shop in the mall after a quick bite.

The Crouque Monsieur was excellent! Came with a side salad…
We have been to the one in Paris and were amazed to find this one downstairs in Tyson’s II
Would love to taste the pastries… next time !

Coffee: so-​so
Ambiance: cute but loud and crowded, feels cramped
Staff: very bad. First the gentleman skipped over me to the next customer and then when ordered a coffee, the gentleman didn’t even as me if it was for here or to go.
Overall not a great experience.

Paul is beautifully decorated with classic European style design that fits perfectly into the luxury ambiance at Tysons Galleria.
Paul offers a variety of pastries and desserts. Although I am not a big fan of sweets, it is simply a pleasure to see them displayed on the counter.
I had a cup of coffee, Americano, very smooth and tasted good in black.
Paul also offers outdoor seating, view is not that great (facing the garage) but it is a good option during warm weather when you are tired of the old Starbucks and need a break shopping at galleria.

I have been to Paul’s in Paris and while it’s true this place doesn’t compare I think it still is a neighborhood gem and worth visiting. My friends and I try to gather once a week. You could sit there all day and not realize the time flew by. The atmosphere is comfortable. Though the food is ok, it is a bit pricey. For 3 eggs and cup of coffee your looking at something around $ 10. I noticed some of the other reviews mentioned bad service which is something I have never encountered. They don’t go out of their way to smile and be super friendly but they do their job well usually. The macaroons are delicious and worth the $ 15 – 20 you’ll spend on a box.

I love Paul’s ambience — it reminds me of a charming French bakery. The atmosphere is conductive to work meetings.
I had a large pistachio macaroon — perfect texture, flavor and chewiness. We also ordered the beignets, which were misnamed because they were simply donuts. Beignets should always be served fresh and hot.

I’ve had their macarons before, but first time actually going to one of their stores.
I love their large selection of pastries and everything looks so yummy! I wanted to try them all (and I will!). I ended up just buying a box of their mini macarons and one (large) pistachio macaron. My friend got their tart, though he didn’t say how it was.
The macarons were good, even after I placed them in the fridge to save for later. Will have to come back and try their whole menu

What can I say about Paul? Great place to get quick dessert and sweets. I stopped by after work and just pick up a big macaroon and coconut flan. They have different flavors everyday (according to the lady that worked there), but I don’t care much since I love all their flavors. I like their macaroons a lot since its chewey and it has the right flavor (not too thick or so). I just love their macaroon, but the big one is around 5.95 for one, which is $ 6 for one, kind of pricey but you pay for the quality. The coconut flan is just right, not too sweet, which I like, the price is around $ 4.95 per slice, which is not bad, their slice is pretty huge.
I will definitely come back to try more of their sweets.
