Last year we traveled Europe and stayed for several nights at a chateau in Normandy for three nights. One of our fondest memories there was breakfast and the croissants served. We still talk about how great they were and compare all croissants to the ones we ate there. Every time we compare, though, we always say "not like we had... More

Lone employee was busy gabbing with her friend and ignored us when we came to the counter to order. Never again.

I love this bakery! My favorite things here are the chai latte, the apple tarts, and the spinach, feta & tomato croissant. Also, they make the best tuna sandwiches!

Being from the central time zone, we were up a good 2 hours before our hotel served breakfast so we headed around town searching for coffee. Cambria likes to sleep in! We were happy to see the French Corner Bakery was open as everything else was still closed. The lattes were yummy and we really loved all their baked goods!... More

Just the right amount of both, smooth Choco with a hint of cinnamon and a delish claw, fresh not too sweet and a bit of almond crunch!

Great place to stop by for a little treat. The service was friendly and they lady behind the counter was very attentive. They have a wide variety of baked goods and it's really difficult to choose just one item. I will make it a point to stop by whenever I'm in town. Their lemon tarts and cheesecakes are delicious.

We had breakfast here twice and really enjoyed it. The coffee lattes are good, and the breakfast pastries are delicious. The ham and cheese croissant is excellent. And oh those desserts! You can't go wrong here.

The place to stop after a stroll around town. The pastries were super fresh and flaky!!!! And the girls were very informative about their town.

I'm sorry but the poor reviews I've read from here keep mentioning the coffee and cappuccinos like this is a coffee house or something. Well guess what- it's not. It's a bakery and I'm assuming that's what they're best at: baking. We ordered a large variety of pastries (cakes, scones, eclairs, etc) for my grandmother's birthday and were very pleased... More
