This place cares. Their care spills over into excess—the nice kind. Case in point: their grand Croissant. Five stars for being generous in their thick slices of sandwich meat. One of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Fries were great and flavorful too and you can tell the oil they were cooked in was clean.
Perfect place for coffee break with delicious pastry, for brunch or healthy protein lunch. They have champagne and wine as well. Check Lamont croissants and raisin roll.
Excellent food, pleasant atmosphere. It's a little cramped, but only slightly.
Excellent French bakery on the corner. Perfect for enjoying a meal or coffee outdoors. Everyone is incredibly friendly. The laminated pastries are amazing, and the staff is so kind! The menu is wide with plenty of options—savory, sweet, and salads. I love that they also have healthy choices! We’ll definitely be back.😍❤️
Although imperfect, Le Marais is a solid spot to grab a bite for brunch with some friends. I had mixed feelings about some of the food. The freshly prepared food was quite nice, but the pastries, I’d consider only to be okay. Your mileage may vary on seating, depending on when you show up. For the group I was with, it was quite a challenge to find enough space for our group to sit and eat. That said, when we decided we did want to stay, the staff handled a couple of us switching our orders to dine-in very gracefully. If you’re here when it’s a little less busy, you might not have the same issues. All things considered, it’s definitely a solid spot to check out.
