Saint Germain French Cafe' And Bakery
675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA
Crema's Take
“Tucked in Buckhead Village, this French cafe strikes that perfect balance between refined pastry shop and relaxed neighborhood hangout, with visually stunning cakes and consistently delicious pastries that folks return for again and again. The outdoor seating and unhurried vibe make it ideal for lingering over a traditional coffee or matcha drink, though the chai could be bolder and you'll want to enjoy those beautiful Black Forest cakes within a day of purchase. Friendly baristas and validated parking sweeten the experience, even if the prices reflect the quality and artistry you're getting.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Parking available.

Matcha drink was nice but the chai could use more flavor. The dark chocolate & pistachio cake was good but the raspberry cake was too sweet. Loved the outdoor seating, and the baristas were very nice and helpful. Definitely coming back for that matcha
The pastries, while I didn't like all of them, were still delicious and at least really cool looking. The workers were also good at helping me decide what macrons to buy. While it is pricey, it's 100% a fun experience, and worth the money. Absolutely loved the strawberry tart…
