Le Fournil de Mouffetard

I am still dreaming about this bakery! We were so lucky to have stayed a few blocks away from this place. We came here almost everyday for breakfast. So fresh and so damn good. Delicious baguettes and fresh croissants of all kinds. The people dont speak much English but are still very friendly to tourists. Inexpensive and very delicious. I especially loved the almond croissant.

There are two boulangerie/​patisseries on this section of Rue Mouffetard. The other one doesn’t have a line, Le Fournil does. Today we had pain au chocolat, croissant buerre, and a baguette, all warm from the oven at a lazy Sunday morning time of 10:15am. The croissants were tender and delicious, the baguette super crisp crust, tender crumb, and delicious.

I wish we had more time in Paris to come to this place again and again. This bakery is in walking distance from a small plaza up the road in the heart of the Latin Quarter. It was also close to our hostel, Happy and something. Early in the morning right when they open, at least during the week, you can expect NO LINES and hot and fresh baked goods. We tried two different bignets, cherry & apricot, and of course a baguette. Again everything was deliciously perfect, flaky and sugary bignets and the bread was soft and crusty as you’d expect. Not much else to say about this place other than there isn’t any seating, its more of a take out/​away joint.

Fantastic food, very delicious indeed. One of the best baguettes in Paris and my personal favourite.
The place is small and on a wonderful Street. They also have very kind staff.

Saw a line out the door and decided to check it out. Love the pain des fruits and fresh pain au chocolat. Baguette was excellent too: crusty with great flavor. Almond croissant was a bit soggy. Well worth the line (which moves very quickly).

I was here again, and it as good as I remembered. One thing I did notice in general: many croissants have been coated with sugar, here and in other places. Only one bakery on a Sunday market at La Bastille did not seem affected by this fad. Still, flaky, buttery, tasty croissant heaven :-)

Best bakery in these parts. Always a line out the door! The toursade aux grain was heavenly. The bignet and pain aux chocolate were well worth the wait. Don’t make the mistake of choosing another bakery with a shorter line.

When I think of how a bakery should be in terms of price and overall quality a tear forms in my eye knowing that I am no longer in Paris and no longer able to go to this place.

Viennoiseries à tomber. Mention spéciale pour le chi chi. Les pains sont également excellent. Baguette chef et tradition parmi les meilleurs de Paris

This was my bakery of choice since my airbnb was just around the corner from this place. There’s a pretty large selection and it’s priced pretty good.
I’d recommend trying at least the chocolate and almond croissant (or any of them to be honest).
Also attempt to speak some French, they appreciate it. It does get crowded during the weekend when all the tourists come to the market, but it’s actually not that busy during the weekdays.

My favorite in Paris for traditional baguettes and multi-​grain baguettes. Wonderful fluffy crumb structure and tasty, and the crust is this beautiful duality of crispy and chewy that I haven’t found anywhere else except maybe Tartine Bakery in San Francisco.
Unlike other bakeries, they seem to have a second batch of fresh-​baked bread coming out in the afternoon. There’s always a line out the door.

Great selection. Very busy. Fast moving. Baguettes and croissants were kind of ordinary. Staff was curt but not rude. Lots of tourists visit this place.

I visited this bakery every morning while I was staying in the Port Royal/​Gobelins area of Paris. Awesome croissants, pastries and bread. You must check out this place!

Great croissant, great pain au Chocolat, fantastic baguette.

Been here two days and had their product four times now. The line down the street on Sundays must really have merit. Everything we’ve had has been most excellent. Carol is doing something quite wonderful inside. And her staff are super helpful to the non-​French speaking set too. Bring on the carb bombs!
I will be back to Paris just for this!

While wandering down Rue Mouffetard, Le Fournil de Mouffetard caught my eye because a ridiculously long line of Parisians streamed from the tiny bakery out into the street — unusual in my opinion since I was no where near any major tourist hotspots. I concluded to myself that the bread must be phenomenal if Parisians are willing to wait in a long queue… so I hopped into the line. Best decision ever.
During the wait, I noticed that all the bread is made in house and the tiny quiches went like crazy. The pizza looked delicious as did all the assortment of desserts, breads, and pastries. When it was finally my turn, I ordered a fresh Pain au Chez for 1.15E and stuck it in my purse. As I left munching on my soft warm baguette, I couldn’t help but feel o’ so Parisian :)
p. s. Rue Mouffetard is my favorite street in Paris. Located in the 5^th arrondissement, it was also one of Julia Child’s favorites — not a surprise given that it’s said to home the best street market in the city. A narrow cobblestone street lined with cafes, restaurants, bars, fromagerie (cheese shops), boulangeries (bakeries), clothing shops, and more, it simply charmed by socks off.

This is one of the bakeries on the famous Rue Moufettard street market. During our visit there last week we stopped here for a baguette and a couple of sandwiches for later and a few pastries. As expected from a shop on Rue Moufettard everything we bought from here was fantastic! The baguette especially. My wife and I were finding ourselves comparing baguettes from every other bakery in Paris we stopped at and none other was equal. Man, I want one now…

En plein coeur du «marché Mouffetard», tout en bas… là où vendeurs de fruits et légumes, touristes et habitués du quartier se pressent.
Refaite à neuve depuis 2 ans, cette boulangerie tape à l’oeil de l’extérieur… elle est propre, dispose d’une mini terrasse déployée, qui permet à la vitrine de s’avancer légèrement sur la rue.
Et la vitrine justement… le pain y est délicieux, les pâtisseries et autre viennoiseries également… les prix peut être un peu + chers que dans une boulangerie «classique», mais l’affluence dont elle est victime est un gage de qualité incontestable.

Un beau Franprix ! Refait à neuf en 2008, assez grand avec beaucoup de produits référencés.
Fermé le lundi mais généralement ouvert jusqu’à 22 h !
