We did get some pain au chocolat which were very good, but the croissants were amazing. Out of this world. Almost melt in your mouth. So we run down to lavarenne and make coffee in our rented apartment. Tomorrow we may top it with some local jam we found today. Every morning there is a market right outside of the shop, and it is so quintessential French. It's amazing. Tomorrow we're going for a drive in the country and plan on picking up tons of croissants and a whole baguette, slathering them all in butter (as if they needed any more butter) and maybe jam and/or cheese. Best plan ever. Tldr: Get the croissants here!!

I'm so glad that I found this on Yelp and stopped in here for lunch. The pâtisserie is well…read moredecorated and full of French women (not tourists), either with their kids or with friends, while on their lunch break. Service is quick and very friendly. Food: - Quiche Lorraine: This is why I came here! Came with a side salad; tasted great. - Thé gourmand: They have a really vast selection of tea types. The thé/café gourmand both come with two evening cakes, which you can pick from the front. I had a pistachio macaron with raspberry and a millefeuille, which both had phenomenal texture (crispy on the outside, moist on the inside) and tasted very fresh.

Both dishes were good and very professional service, however, I would have appreciated a bit larger portion for the price (the tajine was a lot of couscous and less vegetable).

They ask you not to work there at certain hours (very fair) but it is set up for you to do so! Staff is all multi lingual in French and English, or at least enough to get by, and they even have an English language menu. Don't worry, the food is high quality French and the coffee is superb. You of course get the typical for France espresso, but you can also get French Press, drip, and other styles of coffee. Overall, just a pleasure to visit and enjoy

I have found the service kind, however, one specific time I was told to sit anywhere when I was there for brunch with a group of three. We sat down and had ordered when someone different came over and told us the table was reserved. We were then moved to a table clearly made for only two people. There was no signage on the table that it was reserved and the server didn't seem particularly happy we hadn't known this. Other than this time, the service has always been kind and I always enjoy the food.

The avocado was superb! That made the sandwich! The cheddar was nice too. I really dig the 'Fat Mike' sandwich. The charcoal bagel bread added to the already plentiful flavors of the 'NY I Love You' sandwich. We would return to try more sandwiches, if we had the time.

Really great little lunch place a bit off the beaten track in Aix-en-Provence. Our sandwiches…read morewere great, and we got out of there for under 12 euros for the two of us (including beverages) No small feat in Aix! It's a small place, so it may be difficult to find a place to sit if the weather is bad, but I'm pretty sure you can also get your food to go. Worth walking a couple extra blocks for the quality of the food and the reasonable prices. (And the employees were very nice as well.) We will be back.

We just had the best meal since coming to France at Le Jardin d'Amalula (The Garden of Amalula)…read more When we asked the owner what Amalula means, she said it is a contraction of the first names of her daughters: Amandine, Lucile, and Laurine. Laurine is the chef. The outside of the restaurant is inconspicuous; in fact, we walked right past it. But you walk down a corridor, through a small courtyard, and then into the small restaurant. But it's the garden out back that is beautiful. That's where we sat. My wife had Le Provençale, a tartine (toast) with bush cheese, red fruits jam, dried figs, dried tomatoes, and parma ham (like prosciutto). Delicious! I chose the plat du jour based on the owner's recommendation. Not sure what it's called but it was a tartine with tuna tartare & passion fruit, chutney with mango, pineapple, & red pepper, slices of avocado, and orange zest with pink berries. I don't know how they do it. Amazing flavor combinations. Glad we found this place with plenty of time to go back another time or two. Highly recommend!
