Wow. I was not expecting to enjoy my meal here so much but the reviews definitely do this place justice. Not only are they extremely friendly and helpful, the quality here is top notch. I had the beef stew which came with a beautifully made French baguette. The beef stew was incredible. It had a unique flair that I wasn't expecting, but was delicious. The meat was tender and flavorful. I also had their waffle creation with cream on top that was very good. The restaurant itself is small with a seating area in the back that is always packed because of how popular it is. Definitely worth trying!

I come here often with my partner. We love it. The staff is always friendly. We like to share a Croissant/Waffle. The energy in the environment is very nice and welcoming.

Known for their croissants, this place has a charming vibe with tables inside and a couple outside. I highly recommend trying the banh mi sandwiches as well as the baguettes to go. I recently used on of their baguettes with bruschetta and it was perfectly crisp on the outside and pillowy on the inside.

This place was just croffle. I mean, croffle-amazing. Uh, I've got croffle on the brain. A croissant mashed into a waffle iron, and optionally topped with fruit and cream: that's a croffle. It was great but honestly I feel like the cinnamon sugar or plain ones would work better than the fruit--they're a little heavy but still delicious. My son had a plain croissant and said it was flaky and crisp, the best he'd ever had. (His other basis is Costco croissants, and this was definitely better!) Service was fast and friendly, seating was limited (we took our stuff to go) but the cafe area was cute. We'll definitely return for iced coffee!

We became weekly regulars on our very first visit! Amazing variety of plain and filled croissants, egg/cheese croissants with or without bacon, delicious bahn mi sandwiches, and wonderful coffees including Vietnamese, my favorite. The owners are great. We buy enough to last all weekend. We gave neighbors and friends Artisan Boulanger Patissier gift cards and they were as impressed as we are. A hearty four thumbs up from us.

This is the best croissant I have ever had in my life. I got the blueberry croissant cruffin and I had to go back to get the strawberry one because it was so good. Chicken bahn mi sandwich was also amazing. Would highly recommend.

Finally got to try this place. It is lovely. It is definitely not the original Boulanger, but this one has their own variety and great for the Media area. More variety, delicious, clearly posted wifi. Lemon chicken nicely packed so that it doesn't spill and quick service. Flavorful sandwich and coffee is on-point. Pastries are flavorful as well. With limited days, I wish they were open more in the evening as well- especially Sat evening. Maybe a crowd from the Media theater where they hold plays catered to older crowds might come out. People are friendly. They should consider TooGoodToGo for their leftover pastries and such.

I didn't have the pleasure of visiting the location myself, but hubby brought home a bunch of pastries for mothers day weekend. Mmm, this is by far my favorite bakery. So glad there is now one closer to me. Sweet sticks - omg, my favorite!! It's like an almond croissant but in stick form, but so much better. Strawberries n creme croissant - cream is light and goes perfectly paired with their delicious croissant Chocolate croissant- again, not too sweet. The croissant has this nice crisp on the outside but soft and buttery inside. Ice vietnamese coffee - it's like Crack. The slight sweetness and bitterness of this amazing coffee is just amazing. For those who never had it, be careful bc the caffeine kick is crazy Pork banh mi- meat is so flavorful. My daughter killed it. And it's on their freshly baked baguette. You can definitely taste the freshness. Mmmm, be right back as I'm going to finish my leftovers.

Oh, this is dangerous now. This place is closer to me than the Philly location and they take credit. 15lbs, here I come. Haha, but in all seriousness, they have the best croissants. The outside is crispy yet fluffy on the inside. I came here for my wife since she was craving their sweet sticks. Oh, you never heard of it?! Just try it!! You won't be disappointed. As for the viet coffee and banh mi.. get those too. The iced viet coffee is so addictive. You would never view coffee the same again.
