Just what I needed. On my way out to lake Travis and I intended to stop here and get an iced tea and pastry. I had seen an Austin Yelpers post a couple of years ago and book marked it. Baguette et Chocolate is a small artisan,take out only bakery. If the French speaking owners don't convince you this place is authentic,the pastries will. I went for the Almond Pain Au Chocolat and was taken to another place by the different folds,textures and flavors. This place is one of a kind so if you're in the area,load up. Great drink menu also. Their ice tea was strong and smooth and it came in handy on the hot summer day. read more

I returned two weeks later and once again ordered a coffee and this time eggs and on the menu said with bread and got it too. I sat down after getting my fresh cup of coffee and soon a 1/2 baguette filled with a huge egg omelet with bacon pieces. It was in a paper bag and huge. It did taste very good and the eggs had a nice flavor. I have fallen in love of this place, but next time will order something a bit smaller. read more

Mmmmm it was all so good! We walked in at 11am on Saturday morning and I am surprised they still had as many items left as they did. All of the breads were sold out, but the pastries below were about 75% full. Within thirty minutes, they were all gone! Plan to come as early as possible if you want a full selection, especially on the weekends. Seating was available both inside and outside, though it is on the smaller side. The kids meal came with half of a sandwich, half of a crepe, and a drink - they loved it. I got the tomato and mozzarella sandwich which I also enjoyed. read more

Stopped by this bakery today for a quick snack and coffee. The place is in a sort of strip mall, but inside it's cute with a few small tables. Would be a decent place to work, and fairly quiet. Service is quick and very friendly. I got a chocolate croissant to go. It was good but a little less crisp than I'd like. I brought it home and heated it a bit with a toaster oven and it was perfect! The latte I got was also pretty good. I'd need to go back to try the food, which looks promising and also not too pricey. Definitely could use more bakery/cafes in the area! This one's pretty good - try it out if you're in Bee Cave! read more

I've never had anything bad from here. It's all good... It's all TOO good. Staff is always super friendly and they are starting to recognize me so I think I need to buy disguises for when I go back twice in the same day.. the Napoleon is .... Insane. Just buy one. If you regret it then idk see a doctor because it's a slice of heaven and you're wrong if you disagree. Pretty small and always people inside, little area outside as well as curbside pickup spots. read more

What an amazing find in a shopping center that you would think is only for offices. This bakery is something that you would find in France. Everything is handmade from their breads to their pastries to their breakfast. If you're in bee Cave, you should hunt this place down and try their menu. They only have a short day and it ends at three so try to get there early. Their croissant sandwiches with bacon, egg, and cheese are divine as are their pastries and their desserts. If you're looking for macaroons, you've come to the right place. We give this bakery five stars. read more

The best baguettes and croissants in Austin. The almond croissant is my guilty pleasure, and well loved by my office mates when I bring a batch to my office. My only complaint is the place can be a little claustrophobic - the chaotic ordering line starts outside the door, and weaves around the very small dining area. I have lived across the street and know they have been there 20+ years and always wondered why they never expanded to a larger location read more

Qui, qui, et qui! Yes! Although a bit of a drive outside of Austin, absolutely worth it. Femme, the owner from France, knows what she's doing. Our intention was to get a simple traditional Parisian baguette sandwich, and we walked out with that in addition to cafe and lattes, as well as baked goodies like peach tart (amazing). It's worth asking the staff about their favorite choices, the one choice we made on our own (pan au chocolate - chocolate croissant) was actually our least favorite because the others were just SO good. read more

Little bit of France in Bee Cave. Great place for a light bite and backed goods. Lovely people and outdoor seating

I stopped by recently, and it's safe to say it's a hidden gem! It was Sunday around 10:30 and there were still plenty of pastries and baked goods in the cases, but around 10:45 a huge group came in. They have plenty of parking and seating outside (although tables and chairs are on the sidewalk, you are close to cars. They serve brunch type items which were delicious. The quiche was perfectly baked, with a buttery, flaky crust and served with a salad. The croissants sandwiches were equally great--light, but filling with cheese and meat. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. If you're looking for a spot with great pastries, a warm vibe, and no parking headaches, this is the place to go! Will definitely be back. read more

I've supported this bakery for many years, but my recent visit was upsetting. I drove quite far and arrived well before closing, yet I was told the pastries still on display couldn't be sold because they were being held for the next day. It didn't feel right to be turned away while the shelves were full, and the situation left me disappointed. read more

I recently realized, with shame, that I still haven't written a review for one of my favorite businesses in the area: Baguette et Chocolat. This hidden gem of a bakery is deeply loved by the locals (as evidenced by the constant flow of cars, shelves full of order pick-ups, and often emptied out display cases) & you gotta try them out! If you're not sure what to get, the banh mi SLAPS. My husband and I order it for a quick treat yoself lunch twice a month and I look forward to it every time. The bread is perfectly crusty yet chewy, and packed with fresh ingredients and flavors all tied together with delicious pate. For something sweet, we've never gone wrong with their cakes and pastries. The cinnamon roll is somewhat of a croissant hybrid and the texture is *chef's kiss* It's definitely not the kind of bakery/cafe for remote work, given the small space and limited seating. The website is slightly clunky but def recommend ordering online to save yourself a wait in case the place is packed... and to secure your favorite item before it sells out. Bon appetit! read more

Been here a bunch of times, and the food is excellent. I've tried their quiches, their sandwiches, and many of their desserts, and they've all been exceptional. The service is great and everything is delicious. Seating can get tricky since there's not much seating indoors but they do have some outdoor seating. read more

Butter croissant was so yummy! French onion soup is the best I've had, not too salty with just the right amount of onion, cheese, and crunchy croutons. Latte & coffe are also on point too. read more

September 2024 Love this place. It reminds me of Bread Furst in Washington, DC. Can't wait to go back. Indoor seating is limited and quickly fills up. But there is plentiful outdoor seating. The place was packed by 9am with more folks walking in as I was walking out. Everything is packaged to-go. Staff was friendly and helpful of first-timers. There is one menu close to the counter. But it can be difficult to see given the way the entrance and queue is structured. So I recommend looking at the menu online beforehand to get an idea of what you'll want to order. Chausson au pomme: Light, flaky, and delicate pastry. Well-filled with apple goo. Texture is reminiscent of applesauce. But the flavor is delicate, showcasing natural apple flavor. No cinnamon, so unlike an apple pie/tunover. I could eat a whole tray of these. Definitely recommend. 10/10 Raspberry Tart: Interior custard is a bit grainy but has nice notes of vanilla on the nose. Crust is nice - delicate and crumbly with a hint of sweetness. Raspberries are coated with a mildly sweet syrup. Altogether, the raspberries provide a pop of contrast against a soothing background of vanilla. Reminiscent of raspberry cheesecake. It's good, just not something that I personally would crave or seek out. Worth a try though. 7/10 Peach Tart: Wasn't a very good peach - bland. Custard is grainy and underwhelming. Peach "jelly" had some nice flavor. Puff pastry was flaky and delicate. I'm confused by the coconut - not sure it really adds anything. Overall, this would probably be great if it had "peachier" peaches and better custard. Until then, I'd skip this one. 5/10 Parisien Brie Hot Panino: Awesome panini. It's about a foot long and is packed with Brie. The ham shines through as a savory compliment to the Brie. The tomatoe adds much needed acidity and brightness to balance out the heaviness of the meat and cheese. In fact, I'd probably ask for extra tomatoes for next time. The bread is amazing - a n intoxicatingly crunchy exterior and a chewy inside. Great dish. Definitely recommend. 8/10 read more

This is the most authentic French bakery in the area. Their baguettes are beautiful and delicious. Breakfast there is wonderful. Great omelettes. Everything is delicious. We took our granddaughter who had just spent a gap year in France and she was delighted. Wish they had another place closer to center city. read more

A little shop near the hill country galleria mall area. Came later in the afternoon for coffee and a little snack. Service was great. She was helpful and nice. Got an iced latte which was decent. Go a loaf of bread and 2 mini beignets. The beignets texture was like a donut and nothing like a true beignets The little shop has a few tables and a water station. They stop making cookies food around 2PM I believe so anything after that is their baked good or dessert. read more

Do you ever eat at a place a lot and enjoy it so much that it seems like a sin that you haven't reviewed it yet? For me, that's Baguette et Chocolat. We've had the coffee, the tea, the macarons, the croque madame, the bread, and the paninis. Everything food here is a 5/5 and priced appropriately. The macarons are the best I've ever had anywhere. When we tried them for the first time, we couldn't help but think "oh, this is how they're supposed to taste!"--each one really hits you in the face with its specific flavor and they're a great gift too. But my personal favorite is the Parisian Panini, a pressed baguette with melted brie, ham, and tomato. It's so filling and so simple and delicious. read more

We wanted to try Baguette et chocolat, for so long, but it's way way too far from where we live, so hadn't and finally made it. Lady at the counter was welcoming, got a chocolate almond croissant, which was delicious and ordered build your panini, it starts at $6, and I was like, Woww that's less expensive, but from basic cheese, not extra or more cheese, just the regular, they charge you with veggies and even butter, so it'll be easily $12+, so for $6, they just give you panini bread??? I dunno, but it's good, it's nice crispy outside, thin panini, piping hot and of a lunch size. The most disappointing was the coffee, they say they serve lavazza coffee, got the drip and it's morning, so you expect fresh, but it was absolutely disgusting, it was not fresh, it was burnt and weird after taste which you can't get past, so had to stop by at another coffee shop, which personally I hate, you go to a bakery in the morning, you should able to enjoy the food/baked goodies with good cup of coffee, not fancy, just decent. read more

One of the best bakery's I've been to - I discovered this place while in Austin on a work trip. I was desperate for a tasty coffee halfway through and decided to try Baguett et Chocolat. I can't recommend it enough! The coffee is perfectly smooth and the iced oat milk latte was so good I went back 3 mornings in a row. The pastries alone are worth the trip - they are fresh made and taste like you're in France with high ingredient quality. The selection is great and everything I tried was so yummy - highly recommend the Kouign Amann and the Pain au Chocolat. This place is worth a stop (or two or ten)!! read more

Hands down the best bakery in the area perhaps Austin. They make an amazing Kouign Aman, best I've ever had, the sugar is perfectly caramelized and the flavor is to die for. Their almond croissant is also excellent with the almond flavor being spot on and not having that fake after taste so many others have. They breakfast sandwiches - ham and cheese croissant with scrambled egg was also very good. I highly recommend this place! read more

I found this little patisserie while visiting family, and I fell in love and hope to come back! I bought every flavor of macaroons for my family and I was told they were all delicious. I arrived with the goods and as soon as I set them down, they were gone. My family loved them!! And the little ones kept asking for more lol. I'm glad I had bought myself some to enjoy before I delivered the goods to my family. It's very small inside but that didn't take away from the experience. And the employee was very nice! They even had a little water station! Although their kitchen was closed when I was there, so hopefully next time I get to try their food. 10/10 highly recommended! read more

Nasty attitude + beignet was a donut and not a beignet. I did not like my experience here.

Absolutely the best coffee and pastries! Stopped here while visiting family in Austin. Will definitely come back every time we visit

We are hugely lucky to have this slice of Paris in the Austin community. This very nice French couple, formally trained as bakers and pastry chefs in one of the best schools in France, get up very early every morning and produce breads and sweets that are of the same quality and joy as we have had in Paris or Lyon. There is no better, more authentic baguette in Austin than their wonderfully soft but crusty delight. And their pastries ... more fruit than sugar, with plenty of that deep character that needs no extra sweetness to hide behind ... strawberries and peaches and apples singing their own natural praises in delicate pastries - how authentically French! And then there are the simple things. Try the Parisienne sandwich. Simplicity itself: baguette, French butter, just a little French ham, and a thin smear of mustard. Yet it is the best sandwich we have ever had in Austin! We cannot sing Baguette et Chocolat highly enough. All we can do is be grateful that they have chosen to stay true to their French traditions in west Austin! read more

The crepes, homemade baguettes, and pastries are delicious. Friendly staff. Our nephew recommended this place to us while we are in town visiting and we would definitely recommend checking it out. We will be going again while in town. read more

Came for an early lunch/late breakfast on Sunday. This place is POPULAR, so as their signs say - Be Patient and good luck trying to find parking. It wasn't long before I ordered and then waited a few minutes to get my food, but I could tell that if I didn't arrive at such a wonky hour, this place would be crushed. The food was fantastic and the people were great, so I understand the appeal. I had the Parisienne sandwich. It was a great ham & cheese with dijon on a perfect baguette. Crunch, chew, tasty all at the same time. The thing was ginormous! Really enough for two people or two meals. I also got a pear tart because a) didn't know what else to get and b) never had one before. I'm such a rube! Anyway, that thing was insanely good. Perfect pear taste with a brilliant pastry base. I'm coming back! On some miserable weather day between real meal times or whenever else I could predict few people would be around... Pro-Tip: they were doing a lively business for on-line orders. This is the route to go. read more

This little French bakery is tucked in the back of a shopping center and you'd easily miss it from the Main Street. We decided to chance it due to an intense craving for kouign aman. There are a handful of bistro tables inside and out, so be prepared for a takeaway experience. They have a fun bistro menu you can order from, but the pastry display is what wows when you walk in. It is so tempting to want one of everything. This visit we opted for the previously craved kouign aman. They were perfectly flaky and delicious, although a few had burnt tops due to the caramelized sugar. My breakfast mates felt it was a little sweeter than our favorites, but they hit the intensive craving for sure. We also ordered an apple tart which was more sour than I anticipated. I wish there was a little more of the creaminess I lend to expect underneath the fruit slices. And my daughter wanted some chocolate macarons, which came in a super cute box. She ate them all before we made it home. The service at the counter is efficient and friendly. Their takeout shelves were filling up for breakfast already, so I am sure they're busy on weekends! Bottom line? Amazing local French bakery that we will definitely be back to. Just don't come when you're actively jonesing for a pastry... you might walk away with more than you anticipated! read more

This restaurant used to be wonderful. Even though the service was never great, the food was superb. Until they sold it, and I believe it was after Covid, and it is an absolute disaster. The food is bad, and some say it is not done in house. (it would not surprise me!) The selection is not was it used to be, neither is the quality by far!. I am so sorry to see this little piece of French Bistro be no more, since we do not have any other place to go near us with original french quick lunch type food. read more

Kept it simple and ordered a butter croissant and almond chocolate croissant. Sat outside since the inside was converted to a counter service set up and no longer a dine-in style cafe. I liked the rich butteriness of the plain croissant and it had distinct layers. However the texture of the dough was closer to thinly rolled bread instead of the expected crisp light layers of pastry. This also unfortunately applied to the almond chocolate croissant as well. The pastry was very dense and compacted like a bad scone. Eating more than a few bites leaves you feeling heavy. While everything looked attractive in the case, my experience left me wanting better. read more

If you read the other reviews you already know about the long lines and how quickly they sell out This was the first time that my wife and I ate here so we don't have a baseline to compare this meal ti the past but all I can say is that the food is mediocre and not worth the long wait. If you're really missing French breads and deserts then you should go but you should manage your expectations. read more

The Bee Cave residents are so very lucky to have this little gem in the hood. The most amazing French food served by the owner. The food is fantastic. Everything is fresh. We had the Croque de Monsieur, which basically is a glorious French version of a grilled cheese but no comparison really as this is just so scrumptious. We also ordered The Parisienne Salad. The coffee is amazing. If you love French pastries then you're going to flip out! read more

Exceptional French pastries, macaroons, desserts and baguette! I'm 45 minutes away but will gladly make the drive! Even the French Croutons are delectable and my son munches on them as a snack. They rarely make it home. I visited today about an hour before they close and bought a loaf of brioche, French baguette, Olive Ciabatta loaf, almond croissants (heavenly!), two vanilla custard desserts, three layers chocolate mouse bar, two dark chocolate mousse, and an Austin Eclair (filled with praline). The owner was so kind she even gave me an extra baguette which we ate a good chunk of in the car. Authentic quality. Don't miss out on this little gem behind the Trek store. read more

We love Baguette et Chocolat. First of all, the owners are so friendly. Come in and you'll be greeted by Fem the owner, with the biggest smile. To me, it's very important. I'm French and I can say that everything is authentic. Everything is fresh, made 100% by hand, not frozen like you can find in a lot of bakeries in France. I never had something I didn't like. My favorite is the chausson aux pommes. I love that there is no cinnamon and they say it on the tag. Their croissants are so flaky, just like they're supposed to be. Their bread, any type of bread is delicious: the perfect crunchy crust. I've had sandwiches and salads from there: so delicious. Please stop by and have some pastries or breakfast or lunch: you won't be disappointed. If you're in a hurry, just order ahead bc everything is made fresh so it takes a little longer than ordering a sandwich from fast food place. Bon appétit read more

This place was good like five years ago lol, complete POS now. Closed Monday, closed Tuesday, kitchen closes BEFORE 2:00 every day and if you walk in past 9:30a the whole place is picked clean and there's literally nothing to eat. Apparently they don't even make anything in their kitchen anymore so why tf does anyone still come here? Typical French business being closed all the time and now the food sucks and they can't be bothered to even make their own shit. @Baguette et Chocolate, just close down already and give someone else a shot at being an actual business. read more

Mediocre coffee. Disappointing food. Unpleasant atmosphere. Tables not cleaned between customers

Delicious French pastries to crave! So delicious and fresh, nothing bad to say! Can't wait for my next visit.

For my first visit we tried the baguette which was OK, but not outstanding. The Kouign Amann was fantastic. The Pan with chocolate and almond was very tasty; not a croissant which was what I wanted. I will definitely go back to sample other delicious looking items. read more
