I believe there are two locations, and from what I understand, they don't take reservations, so be prepared to arrive early and wait in line. We arrived around 9:30 AM with a party of five girls and waited about 20 minutes for a table, which honestly wasn't bad at all. The menu is extensive, but they also offer three brunch options that I thought were very reasonably priced. I went with the €45 option, and there was SO much food! Pastries, a breakfast croissant, their famous hot chocolate, and even dessert--it was the perfect amount and such a fun way to try a little bit of everything. Everything was incredibly fresh and delicious. And I absolutely loved the slow, relaxed Parisian pace. Our waitress was so kind and attentive, and we never felt rushed. Instead, we were able to sit back, enjoy our food, and really soak in the experience.

But I personally think they have much more to praise for. This place is full of tourist and there is no specific language that you need to know to order, their staff was nice and helpful for those who did not speak either French or English. Pro-tip: order the hot food while seating and the pastry at the boutique for later (it's cheaper at the boutique compared to on the menu) Their food was great and the setting is great. Could feel busy at all the time but it's worth it and it's not that cramped. Hot chocolate 10/10 really thick and sweet (to me) Egg Benedict 9/10 it's good (could have been better but it's good for the place) French toast 6/10 Meh I mean it's French toast it's not something very extraordinary to expect Scrambled egg 9/10 it was creamy.

I got a few pastries and it was still early enough that they were still warm! The Croissant was probably the best I had on this trip. It helped that the Croissant was fresh and warm, but it was also crispy on the outside and buttery & flaky on the inside. The Pain au Chocolat was also great but it could have used more chocolate for my liking. The Chausson aux Pommes was sweet, slightly acidic from the apples, and definitely heavier of the pastries. I've also never had fresh madeleines before and knew this would be the place to try them. The Madeleine Glacée were buttery and lightly sweet; these actually go so well with a cup of coffee or just a bite if you need a quick snack. All in all, great try!

We had just finished lunch, but since we were already exploring Montmartre, we decided to stop by…read moreCarette because it's one of those places almost everyone recommends, especially for its famous hot chocolate. Since it was a warm summer afternoon, I went for the Chocolat Glacé, their iced chocolate, which was a refreshing choice after walking around the neighborhood. We were too full to try any of the pastries, but the display was beautiful and made it very tempting to come back. In addition to their signature hot chocolate, they also offer a wonderful selection of French pastries, macarons, croissants, crêpes, and other sweet treats. One thing that's helpful to know before visiting is that the Montmartre branch is a takeaway pastry boutique rather than a full-service café or restaurant. Before arriving, I had imagined it would be more of a traditional Parisian tea salon with table service, but this location is designed for grabbing a drink or pastry to enjoy while exploring Place du Tertre. Knowing that beforehand helps set the right expectations. The staff member who assisted us at the counter was friendly and welcoming, making for a pleasant stop. The location itself is part of the experience. Right in the heart of Place du Tertre, surrounded by artists and the charm of Montmartre, it's an easy place to pop into for a sweet break while sightseeing. If you're visiting during the warmer months, I'd definitely recommend the iced chocolate. And if you have a bigger appetite than we did, the pastry selection looked impressive enough to make me want to return just for dessert.

As a true dessert gourmand, I find Berko a nice place for sweets. I have tried the cheesecake and it is really decadent, but I have not tasted all of it, and there are some that fell short and some hit the spot right on. * caramel cheesecake - way too sweet for me, the caramel was overpowering the cream cheese, although probably some prefer it that way, but for me I prefer otherwise. * blueberry meringue - oh so delicious, just the right balance of sweetness and creaminess and the texture of the meringue gives it a different kick... * Pecan - just okay, I have tasted something better... * key lime - i like the balance of flavors in the mouth the kick of the lime balances the taste of the cheese and the creaminess... I also have tasted the cupcakes - and in all fairness they got lots of flavors to choose from, however for me it was kinda expensive for its size (too small for roughly 2.20 euros) - special mention to the cherry mushroom, it looks very cute and delicious too, not too sweet, kinda fruity taste if I may say. They also got reduits, it is like a sponge cake topped with different flavors where you can choose either circular or rectangular shape - banoffee (banana coffee infusion) is quite good, very balance. I haven't tried the others yet, but they surely look inviting Oh and Berko also offers lunch, but haven't tried it yet, but I have seen the salad and it looks yummy. I promise myself on my next visit, I will try dining here. read more

Veritable deception. rien a voir avec le plaisir coupable que vous avez pu decouvrir aux USA. Ne vous fiez pas aux apparences prend tout son sens avec cette patisserie cheesecake et cupcake rue de rambuteau. Le personnel est agressif et incompetent et meme la 'manager' n'accepte aucune responsabilite pour leurs erreurs. Elle est formee pour encaisser, PAS pour verifier les commandes. Les patisseries ne sont pas faites sur place et les patissiers ont bon dos. En bref, si vous cherchez un endroit sympathique et fiable pour vos commandes de gateaux importantes, EVITEZ a tout prix! read more

Affamées et attirées par la vitrine avec des cupcakes de toutes les couleurs, avec une amie nous sommes rentrées dans ce palais des gourmandises! Comme la faim nous tiraillait, entre un gros cupcake chacune et se partager une boîte de 6 petits, nous avons opté pour la seconde option. Et bien que les cupcakes soient délicieux, il ne faut pas trop en abuser sous peine d'avoir un peu mal au coeur! Sur mes 3 choix, j'ai pris framboise, oreo et poire chocolat, au final c'est très bon mais le parfum ne change pas radicalement le goût de base!! read more

Les cupcakes étaient bons mais vite écoeurants. La crème était bourrée de beurre, du coup j'ai compris pourquoi ils étaient aussi petits Les bagels avaient l'airs bons cela dit. Mais ce qui m'a le plus déçue c'était le vendeur Vu que je ne connaissais pas du tout les cupcakes et que j'en achetais plein pour un anniversaire, je lui ai demandé conseil mais à ma grande surprise il m'a dit qu'il ne les avait jamais goûtés. Un peu limite quand même. De manière plus générale c'était pas affreux, mais il y a surement mieux dans Paris. read more
