Paris Baguette

They are all around the city and offer very inexpensive baked snacked that are unbelievably good. Many are less than 3.00 and up. Sandwiches and 2ndfloor seating at some locations. Had a raspberry croissant that was off the charts.

Go to PB everytimes I go to korean town. My boyfriend loves their chocolate cakes but i prefer the cheese cakes and berry tartes, so yum. this is good place to take a break but not for chilling. They are always pack.

I can’t help but be drawn to Paris Baguette. They always look so inviting. The cafes are usually clean. The lighting is usually quite bright. The food always looks so cute. Yes, cute. Have you ever seen a cute sandwich? I haven’t had a sandwich from PB, but they look so ridiculously perfectly packaged that I just may try it.
This location seems to have more of a selection than some of the others.
There is only a slight French influence, take the croissants and breads I guess. Most of the pastry and dessert options consist of Asian ingredients, like green tea, fruit-​topped cakes, red bean, etc. That makes sense since the franchise is owned by a S. Korean parent company.
This time, I tried a ‘Cheese Soft Cake’ ($ 2.75). This individually wrapped palm-​sized cake was so moist and delicious.
What to try next?

Came here for my first pit stop of the morning to get something hot to drink. I’ve never heard about Paris and baguette but my girlfriend says there is a store in Singapore so I trusted her taste. We got the Choux tart with allot chocolate and a green tea latte. Overall good service, and a pleasant experience. Not to mention, their bathrooms are rather dark but clean and well kept. I am going with 4 stars because I had a pleasant experience, not a mind-​blowing one.

Got the strawberry baguette and a small chai latte. My total was only $ 7.03 which is AMAZING considering the NYC location and the quality. You could get similar stuff at Starbucks at twice the cost and a fraction of the quality. Food was amazing, latte was the perfect temperature and sweetness. The staff was quick to serve and answer questions. Very happy. Wish we had these in the greater Philadelphia area. Yum!

Their selection is really cute upon walking in. Like an Au Bön Pain x 2.
I was on a mission to get the Cronut — which I’ve heard so much about.
I chose the lemon.
The first bite had a little crunch on the outside but a soft flaky inside making me think that I liked it. However, I kept chewing myself into deeper regret.
I hit the custard filling and it overwhelmed the pastry. By the last bite, I was left with a napkin full of greasey leftover.
While I wouldn’t likely purchase another cronut, I would give PB another try in general.

I’m partial to this brand because it’s what my family eats when we’re back in Seoul. Though it sounds French, this is a Korean home grown brand — that does have amazing baked goods!
I love what the have here — don’t be shy to try some things — most of them are really nice

This is a must stop for me anytime I visit NYC. I love their desserts, pastries, sandwiches, cakes, etc… everything is so good… not too sweet, not too heavy. Just right for me.
This last time we got a chocolate twist pastry, a ham and cheese panini, a fruit tart and a raspberry cake. Enough for two people to share. Everything was well done and fresh.
For those who visit for the first time, you need to grab a tray, line it with a sheet of parchment paper and then pick what you want from the display case, using the tongs provided. If you want a sandwich heated, just tell the cashier when you check out. They are eager to help. Inexpensive and good quality in the City !

The only item worth getting is the «Sweet Potato Soft Cake.» The cake is soft, spongy and not too sweet. It melts in your most and I can easily eat several in a sitting. But the price is a bit steep around $ 2.75 each for a tiny piece of cake. I’m not a huge fan of their pastries because many times they are over baked. The birthday cakes are nice for celebrations, but nothing special. The customer service at this location is also lacking. My friend asked about birthday promotions, and the cashier couldn’t even understand the word birthday. I was surprised and expected at least that much. For more quality pastries and cakes, I would go across the street to Tous Les Jours.

Stopped by just before clossing. The menu has A lot of korean inspired french desserts and some traditional ones. They ran out of most of the stuff but We had the hot apple-​cinnamon cider and the canele’s. My first tike trying canele and it was as described. Would some back to try some other good stuff that I saw!

Paris Baguette is a ‘French’ Korean bakery chain that is founded by Hur Young-​in. Items such as breads, pastries, cakes, desserts, sandwiches, beverages, and even gift items are offered. The hubs and I stopped by this store while roaming around K-​town after having dinner, and purchased a Croissant Donut (which was basically a Cronut filled with vanilla cream, and topped with lemon cream — this was pretty good, but I was a little sad that they only had one left and I’m sure it would have been delicious, fresh in the morning!), and a Mango-​topped pudding (this was in a very cute little milk-​jar that you can keep (as you the cost is included in the total price; the pudding was a bit on the thinner side, but I did appreciate the little mango gel on top). Service was a pretty speedy, but just keep in mind to stay in place in your line — people seem to just budge each other constantly! Also, the aisles are pretty narrow. There are some seatings within, but it’s best if you get the items to go.
+own version of the Cronut — get it fresh in the morning!

More like a 3.5 but this specific location doesn’t appeal to me as much as it’s other locations. Located in Koreatown, it draws in tons of people day and night. The space is small and like a rectangle, which makes it difficult to choose all the buns, breads, and pastries in the case before reaching the cashier as the line waiting to pay is so long it blocks off the cases.
I like the buns and soft breads, fruit tarts, mini cheesecakes, macarons, and caneles. The copycat cronut (croissant donut) is also a popular option if you can get there early enough to grab one before they run out for the day. They also have a bunch of premade sandwich options and coffees/​lattes/​milk teas. A very small area is available to eat inside, consisting of a few metal chairs and tables. For this location, I’d rather just get my goods to go.

Interesting pastry/​sandwich/​breakfast place in midtown. Walked by it heading to the Compleat Strategist for some Star Wars Nerdery and needed breakfast. You grab what you want from the displays, and head to the front for the staff to toast/​nuke your food. I had a croissant with eggs, ham and cheese, and it was pretty damn good. Wife had a pizza type thing which was good as well. A nice little find.

Similar rating as Tous down the block. More French pastries here such as Canelle and the staff is a lil’ nicer here.
The pastries here are fine overall. Special note to the red bean and sticky rice pastry. In the morning it’s 2.25 which isn’t a bad deal for a morning dish.
mid 3, just low enough to get a 3 instead of a 4 but close.

Think Korean version of the Taiwanese-​based 85C Bakery. Our short visit in NY led me to feel as if Paris Baguette has more of a Euro take in pastries than does our Cali 85C bakery, but that does not make it better or worse :).
My wife and I stopped by here on a Saturday evening; note this location must be one of the hangout spots for NYU students to socialize/​study. Just like other Asian bakeries, you grab a plastic tray upon entry and place whatever goods you fancy (minus the cakes, apparently they grab one in the back when you check out). Wish we came here earlier in the day though because lot of the pastries we wanted to try had already been sold out. We ended up grabbing some softcakes, a mochi roll, tarts, and a blueberry lemon tart. All were pretty good, but the blueberry lemon tart was the best!
Looking forward to trying out the locations in Cerritos and Diamond Bar back home

I really like their sandwiches. Its fresh, crunchy, and buttery croissant with cheese (say bye bye to the generic Kraft), well placed lettuce&tomato, meat or avocado and the right amount of sauce, a perfectly delightful sample meal. I also like their assorted breads, the store does stay true to the name «Paris» and have that delicate French pastry sense to it. Not to compare to the real French bakeries, but probably one of the best Asian bakeries for western style goodies with an Asian touch out there. I’m glad they label the Calories for most of the products, otherwise I’ll totally try everything. They are having a 10% sale for their store anniversary now, and the cold sandwiches are 30% off after 7pm. A great steal for your bucks for some above the standard bakery goods.

This is my least favorite paris baguette location.
The food is still the same and the displayed cakes looks lovely. I however did not appreciate the bad management of lines (so many workers but only one open register)…
And there was absolutely NO sign that we could not take out the individual cake slices ourselves! The other locations never once yelled at customers for this. I dont mind waiting in long lines but when you dont have a sign AND your cake display are on the outside of the register, it because an inconvenience. I would have to stand in line, ask one of the 6 employees behind the counter to come out, he would have to ask the people in line to move so he can get the cake. When in reality, takes me a minute to open display and grab it myself!
The one near Lexington Ave has the cakes displayed inside the register/​employee area and it makes sense that I would ask them to get me a slice of cake! BUT not at this place

Paris Baguette sells pastries, whole cakes and drinks as well as hot food. I come here mainly for their cake because their cakes taste better than Tous Les Jours and the service is better as well.
Ranging from 28 $ and above, their cakes are filled with cream and fresh fruit, though for coffee lovers they have do have cappuccino cakes and mocha flavored cakes as well.
Paris Baguette is my go-​to cake place because the quality of cake really matter to me. Service is another reason why I continuously return — they are not obnoxious and rude like Tous Les Jours. Docked off one star because they are somewhat always short staffed in cashiers and take a while to ring up customers.

This review is for Paris Baguette in the US in general, but I’m putting it here because this is the location I frequent the most. First off, the quality of Paris Baguette’s goods typically exceeds that of its competitor across the street, Tous Les Jours, and it offers a wider variety of specialty French pastries, such as caneles. Second, you cannot compare Paris Baguette to Chinatown bakeries as the former offers fusion European/​Asian goods versus traditional Chinese goods at the latter.
The sweet rice pastry, shortcakes, castellas, green bean pastries, and cream-​filled walnut baguette are my go-​tos here. All of the offerings are pleasing to the eye, though I’ve found that many look better than they taste. Some of those are either deceptively bland (the cream cheese breads and buns) or just not my taste (sweet potato pastry). Their croissants and puff pastry dough don’t hold a candle to those found at French bakeries, though that is to be expected. Paris Baguette certainly isn’t lacking in variety, and it’s a matter of trying out different things to discover what you like.
Their full-​sized cakes are beautiful and make for perfect birthday treats. I’ve been eyeing the blueberry green tea cheesecake and will probably try that soon. Service is also always friendly, which is impressive given the volume of customers they’re constantly handling.

PARIS BAGUETTE!
It’s primarily self-​serve and few tables. When you walk in, you indulge in delicious aromas, surrounded by beautiful pastries and treats. The pastries are delicious and the cakes are amazing. I have the biggest sweet tooth — and this is usually my go-​to bakery in the city.
I love all of their Chiffon Cakes — with flavors including Blueberry, Green Tea, and Mocha — and absolutely love their Green Tea Blueberry Cake. Paris Baguette is a great place to buy birthday cakes ($ 28-​$ 33 for whole cakes) so price is more than reasonable than other places in the city. They also come with candles — so don’t forget to ask for them at the cashier. The candles and the plastic server knife are adorable so definitely don’t miss out!
Everything is beautiful, fresh, and reasonable priced. Great cakes, breads, danishes, croissants, etc. There are so many options to choose from so it is very unlikely to get something that you won’t enjoy.
It’s not a place for diet watchers. beware!
