Mille-Feuille Bakery

Enjoying a croissant at Mille Feuille!
Very affordable– $ 2.95 a croissant compared to Dominique ansel or NoMad. The croissant is very well laminated– flakey with a great honey comb center. Flavor is a bit different from maybe the butter? Or maybe I’ve been used to eating whole wheat croissants… Nonetheless, not disappointed with the croissant!
Ps: the man at the register kindly greeted me up at the register– cute and quaint little place with a counter stop and bar like space as well as three sets of tables for two. Great place to read a book or do work!

Oh my god. I bought the Peach Tarte Fine on the way back from dinner and OH MY GOD. It was filled with perfectly crispy layers in the crust and The peaches glistened and was full of flavor. I spent $ 4.75 on this Tarte but it was one of the best pastries I have ever had. Definitely try their pastries!

i came in today to pick up a dozen of macarons! (i love macarons) and was very impressed with customer service ! thank u :)

Almond croissant didn’t disappint– the filling was sweet without being cloying and the outside was nice and crispy. Regular croissant was quite good as well. The vanilla and green tea macarons are so delicious, especially the vanilla one. A must-​go french bakery.

Mille-​Feuille is one of the Cups app partners, so I decided to stop by to whet my caffeine craving with a large cappuccino and to pick up dessert.
The pastries are all about $ 5, which is pricey, especially considering their size. The tarts are cute, but they are only about the size of a coaster and maybe double the thickness. I ended up getting the Mille Feuille, because heck, the bakery is named after it! I got it to go since it was for a friend, and they put it in a tiny box that was perfectly sized for it! :) Otherwise, the cappuccino was nice and strong! Just what I needed for a long class.
The baristas were super sweet as well. I’d left my credit card on accident (darn those chip readers), and I called the next day to see if I could pick it up. Although I was told that the bakery would be closed that day, they were happy to hold onto it for me to pick up the following day. I’ve since gotten my card back. Woo! :)
Seating is limited, and — since the bar area takes up more than half of the width of the store — also super cramped. Still, plenty of people get their pastries to stay and pop open their laptops, so I’m guessing it’s a desirable study spot.

Used groupon for 1 dozen macaroons when they were extra 25% off from groupon. Was 100% worth it. They include 2 of some of the standard flavors (one of which was matcha – and it was good!) and 1 of some certain seasonal flavors.
The macaroons are high quality and flavor is actually present with most of the macaroons. The most annoying thing with macaroons is when they don’t actually taste like anything other than sugar, which I’m happy to say was usually not the case with these Mille Feuille macaroons.
Someone below mentioned how their macaroons crumbled easily /​fell apart – I kept the box flat as I traveled home walking /​on the subway and they did not crumble easily at all. Prefer these macaroons to the ones at Payard’s. Get the groupon if you’re looking for a deal!

I went twice in this little bakery. I tried french onions soup and quiche lorraine. It’s good but the prices were too expensive for what I eat.
Desserts were yummy. So at the end, it’s a little bit too overvalued.

Oh man, I’ve waited weeks to write this so that I wouldn’t write a totally irrational and unhelpful one star f*** off review.
Long story short: the geniuses here take cake orders in a hot-​mess-​of-​an-​elementary-​school-​esque-​notebook without an organizational system. They lost my birthday cake order and questioned my sanity until I found the page with my order and phone number scribbled down on a totally random page in their book. I am grateful that they rush delivered a cake from their Brooklyn bakery and got it to my dinner party just in time but it wasn’t worth the stress, the attitude I had to deal with, or the price.
I think the UWS location is much better as far as service, ambiance, and even taste goes.

I came here to try the matcha green tea latte that my friend recommended. It’s a little small café with pastries and drinks with limited seating. The service was non existent; I stood there waiting to order as the cashier just stood there playing on the iPad. As for my matcha green tea latte, it was served warm. The taste wasn’t there either.

I used to go to this place in the morning, about 3 times every week, for coffee and croissants, which cost me usually$ 5. This morning, I went this place and found a board outside their store, saying coffee and croissant together $ 5. I went in and was welcomed and told the coffee and croissant is on DISCOUNT, which is the same price as I used to pay, imagine how shock I was. Who does this place try to FOOL?! And then they refuse to stamp my coffee card because it is on DISCOUNT… clearly they are trying to lie to customers and I am very very disappointed about them. I suggest you avoid them.
Update: later today the owner contact me and saying that previously their coffee and croissant was indeed $ 5 but few weeks ago they raised the price and at the same time, they started a promotion so that’s why I am paying the $ 5 all the time. Now I am asking myself, as a customer who is only looking for a smooth morning routine, how am I supposed to know that nitty-​gritty details and why I am paying the same price everyday.
I give them one star back because the owner is quick to respond.

Their butter croissants are AMAZING and I could probably eat one every day, that’s how good they are. I also tried their onion soup which was really good :) The workers are very nice and friendly.
This is my first Unilocal review. After years of having a Unilocal account I decided to write a review for this place because I couldn’t believe some of the negative reviews I was reading. I live in San Francisco, but I’ve been to Paris before and the croissants at Mille-​Feuille taste just like croissants in Paris did. I wish there was a Mille-​Feuille in San Francisco because I know that it was instantly be successful here.

Really top notch macarons here. They’re very French so take that for what it’s worth. But the cookies are some of the best we’ve had in NYC. We’ve also experienced the macaron baking class here which was also quite fun. Nice find…

This is a mediocre establishment with modest ambitions. I have been there maybe three times altogether, and I don’t think I’ll be coming back after this time, because in all these years, they have not improved one bit. I was there for croissants. Their croissants are lumpy and misshapen, and they fall apart as you eat them – and not in a good way. They also charge more than they should for their baked goods, considering the small size and poor quality. I’ll stick to Balthazar, which you can buy at various coffee shops in that neighborhood if you’re too lazy to hoof it all the way to SoHo.
EDIT: Wow, it’s not often that I get such a lame response from the business proprietor. Welcome to the internet, Olivier! Sometimes, on the internet, people say things about you that you won’t like, and trust me, you’re really better off not responding than responding like this: «Regarding your unsupported comment about the mediocrity of our establishment with modest ambitions, you are insulting a family business hiring more than 25 people working hard every day, and who has built a business from scratch 4 years ago and running it today in 3 locations in NYC.»
What do you want, Olivier, an A for effort?

I’m really surprised at the rave reviews for Mille-​Feuille, because I’ve had their ham and cheese croissant and plain croissant, both of which were very disappointing. The croissants are soggy and need more air between each layer of dough. A good ham and cheese sandwich shouldn’t taste heavy and greasy. This one did. Maison Kayser makes a much better croissant.

Came here for macaroon day 2015 and tried their salted caramel macaroon, it was good! It was chewy in texture and the salted caramel flavor really came through.
Also tried their name sake Milli Feuille, it was good but their croissants were better. We tried the raisin croissant and the raspberry cronut and they were both buttery and flakey.
Owner and workers were really nice plus they have outlets for customers to use all along the bakery.

The macarons my sister picked up with the voucher she purchased were big and fresh. The flavors were good. I love these little cookies as they’re one of my favorite desserts.
I need to go back a pick up a slice of actual mille-​feuille. Definitely.

I still come here for the occasional macaron, but my personal winner of Macaron Day 2012 was Bosie Tea Parlor.
Recently, a friend gave me a fruit tart from here and, I don’t know if it was because it was near the end of the day, but the crust was soggy. Saddness = a fruit tart with a soggy crust. Now, the fruit tart from Ceci-​Cela is a whole different story.
Finally, my boss occasionally tasks me with purchasing a dozen croissants on the fly. Mile-​Feuille failed. They were almost completely out of croissants by eleven in the morning. They told me to place such orders a day in advance. I called Balthazar’s Bakery and they were able to accommodate the same day– within minutes.

A quaint French bakery nested in New York’s Greenwich Village that provided my party of two a cool down and dryness from the upcoming rain storm as we neither of us had umbrellas. Very limited and extremely narrow tight seating. Two employees serving customers and hustling non-​stop to operate a bakery.
Jasmine Green Tea by Kusmi $ 2.76
Cappuccino (misspelt on their sales receipt as «Cappucino» $ 3.49
Macaron cookies (one raspberry, one chocolate, one vanilla) at $ 2.50 each
Their business card also serves as a frequent drink card with the tenth drink free. Their business card is a very simple black sketch drawing of a New York City skyline with iconic buildings and landmarks and contains Paris’s iconic Moulin Rouge’s windmill discreetly embedded in the background colored in purple to distinctly stand out. It symbolizes a French bakery in New York City. Very bright and simple atmosphere. There are French baguettes available. No restroom facility on site due to the very limited seating per 1977 law NY any food establishment with 20 or more seats must have toilets. New York University students can attain their food grub between classes or hanging out in Washington Square Park.

One of the best bakeries hands down. However you need to eat your stuff fresh because it won’t taste that great later. The staff is so nice here. One of the guys that works here literally always recognizes my family and I since we stop here a bunch when they are in town.
The croissants are incredibly flaky and delicious. I’m even a fan of their cronuts. While they don’t change up their flavors like Dominique Ansel, they are still so tasty and packed with flavor. The cool thing is this bakery has cooking lessons to learn how to make some of their delicious treats. I will definitely be checking those out sometime soon.

The list of delicious stuffs is quite long:
Brioche Nutella
pain au chocolat with almonds
Ispahan never tasted in France so I was very glad to discover it
Pain aux raisins
Moelleux au chocolat
Chocolate macaron
…
I was about to forget their croissant awesome :)
Their baguettes are delicious also :) perfect for a typical cheese and baguette :)
Clement one of the barista is soooo nice and cute
Love this place

i realized I wrote my review for the wrong location, so here it is:
Perfect for a little afternoon pick me up! The inside is beautiful, I felt like I was in a cozy little shop in France. The interior is bright, well –decorated, and there are beautiful real rose bouquets on the tables. The desserts were well displayed the cashier was very nice.
I consider myself sort of a macaron expert since I make them at home. These macarons here are DIVINE! I ordered 5 macarons. With a light, airy, chewy (even a bit moist) shell and creamy, thick, and intense flavored filling. You must try the Salted Caramel! I tried the Salted Caramel at Laudree and was seriously not impressed. (The one there I tasted more of the butter than the caramel itself.)
I can’t wait to come back to try their macaron making class when I am rich! ($ 135 pp!)

I’ve been meaning to check this place out for years. YEARS. So you can see the level of disappointment when I actually went… and it didn’t live up to the hype.
It’s a tiny café, very little seating. They serve coffee, macarons, pastries.
I had a craving for macarons so I made the trek here in the middle of New York winter. The macarons. They were just… okay. The rose didn’t taste like rose. The salted caramel was tasty but the shell was stale and chewy. Chocolate tasted like chocolate cake — overly indulgent. Maybe it’s just not my type of macarons. My type is light but flavorful, slightly crispy shell, soft inside. This was not it.
Next, the Cronut-​wannabe. Their «French Doughnut», $ 5, and it was pink… but the flavor was also lacking. Didn’t even know which berry it was trying to emulate. It was SO oily and greasy, reminiscent of Paris Baguette fake Cronuts. Please. Stop.
The only good thing was the chocolate éclair.
With all these other macaron and pastry places in the city, I am not coming back here for their éclair alone. My heart is broken.

Delicious coffee and macarons (on par with Bouchon). Brusque owner, though.
