A hot chocolate with a blossoming marshmallow flower, frozen s’mores and milk in a chocolate chip cookie cup are among the innovative treats at this famed French bakery. Also find perfectly executed classics like Kouign-Amann and nutella croissants, plus spectacular seasonal desserts like What-a-Melon Soft Serve in the summer.
Like its famous cronut, the much-loved croissant-doughnut hybrid pastry with flavors that change monthly, these concotions taste as good as they look. Healthy options like salads and avocado toast also available.
Limited indoor seating plus tables in in a lovely outdoor courtyard. The wait can be long on weekends and the waiting area is cramped; best to come with an extra adult to hang out with squirmy kids in the courtyard.
