Full French bakery that was so delicious. We tried so many different items and each was better than the last. We made our sandwiches on the fresh baguettes and loved loved loved them. Don't get the granola.... Doesn't do the rest of the food justice. read more

Enjoyed all the items. Chocolate Croissant, Frosted Cinnamon Rolls, Blueberry Muffins and especially the Almond Croissant!

Saturday morning visit around 7 AM. Cute and cozy farmhouse chic space, with ordering out of a display case and eating outside on tables. Friendly staff. Many options. The croissants all looked good in the case, but didn't come close to wowing as much as all the five star reviews would suggest. Only one out of the three was warm, and none of the three had that must-have croissant crackle that leaves crumbs all over your shirt. More of a dish rag feel here. On the plus side, the everything croissant had really good flavor and the chocolate croissant was buttery. Unfortunately, same texture as what you get at Starbucks. Maybe it was an off day? Not bad, but if you've had the croissants at Belleville in Portland or a handful of shops in Boston, this doesn't compare. read more

So good I practically moved to Kennebunk. Best of the best as far as French in America bakeries go. Croissants, bread, quiche. Everything I've had has been phenomenal. The line is ALWAYS out the door because it's just that good. read more

Before we left New York for our trip to Maine, we put a list together of all the bakeries that we wanted to visit. We stopped in on a Saturday after visiting a local farmers market. First let me just say WOW. Everything looked and smelled amazing. All of the fresh breads that we purchased were delicious. The coffee cake was easily the best I have ever had. We wanted to stop in on Sunday for more, but they were still on their off season schedule when we were there in early June. read more

We had the opportunity to revisit Boulangerie again! It remains AMAZING. The quiche, blueberry hand pies, the beautiful setting and amazing service remains perfect 2 years after our first visit. We actually went two of our 3 days in Kennebunk/Kennebunkport. You have to visit and enjoy this amazing place. read more

Oh my God !!! The bakery opens at 7:00 AM. I arrived at 7:05 & the line was out the door. It took 40 minutes for me to be waited on as I stood out in the cold. Such nice people in line. 3 woman's saw me with my cane & offered for me to sit in my car & they would place my order for me, How sweet is that. I chose to keep standing but my knee tells me I should have taken them up on their offer. I was told the Chocolate peppermint cookies are a must buy so yes I picked up a package while waiting in line. My time finally has come I wanted an everything croissant & a seeded rye bread but both items were already sold out. I did buy an almond croissant, a cinnamon roll, & a lemon something muffin. All in all $41.00 later I was on my way back to our condo basically just across the street. read more

It is so quaint here, and there is always a line for a reason. The sourdough is insanely good, the pastries are always yummy, and the deli chicken salads and sammie's are also great. They sell a small selection of wine bottles, as well as a full coffee menu. In the warmer months the patio is the perfect spot to sit for a gilmore girls vibe while you have a coffee! read more

Downtown Kennebunk is so lucky to have this amazing bakery. The baked goods are of the highest quality, the staff is great and the atmosphere of outdoor seating is warm and welcoming. read more

I met a former colleague at Boulangerie this morning and am so glad this is the spot she chose. In my excitement to catch up, I failed to get pictures of the darling bakery, their tasty offerings, its neat and tidy interior, and its outdoor seating, bounded by beautiful flowers! We were recently in France and walking in took me right back to Paris! They have a fantastic selection of freshly baked breads and treats, including everything you'd expect from a "Proper French Bakery". The staff is super busy, but were kind and cheerful. This place is an absolute gem in Kennebunk! read more

Great quiches and fresh breads, cookies and croissants. Coffee is ok but can be better. Except long lines every day. There are a few tables outside. read more

Another vacation in Maine, another breakfast at Boulangerie. We arrived shortly after 9AM on a Saturday morning and joined the line to order inside. Two different quiches were being offered that day and my wife and I chose the one featuring broccoli, scallion and cheddar. These were taken to one of the outside tables where we enjoyed them immensely. read more

After trying another "French" bakery in town and being disappointed, we visited Boulangerie, and thank god we did! THIS is an authentic bakery! The chocolate croissant was out of this world, and for a chocoholic like me, their brownie called to me right away. We would've taken the whole store home with us if we could've. The staff couldn't have been nicer, and we enjoyed sitting outside. I'll be sure to stop here any time I'm in Kennebunk! read more

I have been going to Boulangeries for quite sometime now. They have a wide variety of bake goods that don't disappoint. The service was quick and attentive. I usually order a quiche, baguette, and scones to take home! Only downside is I wish they are able to warm up the sandwiches or quiches to enjoy. I will be returning. read more

Boulangerie- A Proper Bakery - quiche - Bakeries Near Me - Kennebunk, Maine

Freshly baked goods in a beautiful, small bake shop/barn tucked behind downtown Kennebunk. The croissants are amazing and worth waiting in line for. Great lattes as well! Loaves of bread and daily quiches also looked incredible but we didn't try. Everything is a little expensive but high-quality. They offer a few limited "gluten-free" options but the staff flagged there is high risk of cross-contamination. Not surprising at a small bakery. Limited space leads to longer lines but they move quickly! read more

We were in town for a couple of days and the place we were staying did not have breakfast. We noticed a guy had returned with good looking pastries and he told us about this place. We drove out to the store and were not disappointed. They had a good selection and it smelled heavenly. Got a cinnamon roll, chocolate croissant, they were really good. This place is well organized and has a great vibe. Outdoor seating was great and shady in the morning. We will keep this place in mind as we travel across Maine and are going through Kennebunk. read more

I visited Boulangerie during my stay in Kennebunk ME. It was cold out and around 8:30am but regardless, there was a line out the door and diners were eating their pastries on the outdoor patio. It's obviously a very popular place. I waited in line and it was soon my turn to go inside. The aromas were heavenly of all the fresh baked breads and pastries. I chose the croissant and it was jumbo sized and absolutely delicious! It was $4 for the croissant and well worth it. read more

Lovely bakery tucked behind the art market off the main road. They have a marvelous pastry selection. The everything croissant (with chive cream cheese) was extra special. I also enjoyed the blueberry scones. I was surprised at how big the pastries were. Would love to go back and try more! read more

Fresh pastries and breads daily. Quiche is luscious. Coffee however was a disappointment. I was expecting a bold French roast, it was not.. Definitely worth a look. read more

We were staying close to the bakery. Try the assortment of quiche,danish, the size of a small plate. You can sit outside with your dog, because they are welcome.They even have dog biscuits for your pet. I hope you will enjoy ! read more

This is probably the best and cutest bakery outside of Portland and Portsmouth meaning for French croissants, baguettes and other breads. Again we arrived late but not late enough to get a gluten free brownie and a biscuit. Seriously everything was close to sold out. Food is good and the customers keep coming despite the disappointment of not getting what they came for. I don't know if I can make it out at 7 am for pastry though. I gave a 4 I/o 5 because there were so many sad customers not getting croissants. read more

I don't even have the words to state how wonderful my breakfast was here. We tried the everything croissant with cream cheese, which was absolutely divine. We also went with a scone and it was perfect. Typically, I find scones way too sweet and this was delicious. The service was fast and efficient. There were also plenty of choices for sweet and savory options. They also had outdoor seating, which was great to come with our dog. Definitely will return on my next visit to KPT! read more

Great bakery in the heart of Kennebunk. Delicious food, fast service, and friendly vibe.

Definitely worth it even if there is a bit of a line because it goes quickly. We sampled four different sweets and two savory items and all were amazing. read more

Amazing bakery and coffee shop that I only was able to enjoy once! FYI they are closed Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Glad I could hit them up Wednesday morning before I headed out of town. I arrived just before 9 am and stood in line outside, which moved fast as there was a 3 person limit inside (face masks required). My cheese danish and mocha were delicious, which I thoroughly enjoyed eating/drinking outside on the patio with all the fall decor! read more

Fantastic people. Fantastic scratch made bakery product. So very difficult to find these days. Croissants that aren't frozen, thawed and then baked?? Not in the US. this place is very different. Everyone with big smiles. So happy I went in on day 1 of our time in town and continued for every day we were in town. Although a 5 star rating might increase the people in front of me in line there is no other rating possible. Kudos! read more

We stopped in while vacationing. Each person in our party picked something different and all were very pleased. From the first moment of walking in I knew it would be a winner! The aroma and ambience reminded me of being in France. The staff was so welcoming. This is a must stop of ever in the area! read more

This place has been amazing from the day I fist set my foot here. Even during Covid times , they've managed to maintain the same level of service and quality. You can go to the bakery and pick up stuff and sit outside and eat or just take it to go. I would highly recommend thier coffee cake and biscuits. The breads are freshly baked daily and their service is unparalleled. There's usually a big line during summer but they're also allowing only a few customers inside due to Covid. We live a few blocks from there and when we aren't trying out new places (to be fair) , we stop by here to grab a weekend breakfast bake. Oh and their quiches are worth it, not greasy but perfectly made. read more

Oh the aroma in this place! This was my first time visiting this bakery and cafe, and I honestly could have stayed for hours. The coffee list is simple, but there are SO many options for baked goods (sweets, bread, gluten-free options, etc.). My chocolate themed brunch was perfect! There is plenty of free parking, but on-site outdoor seating is limited (looks like they would have more seating indoors but-for the current pandemic). If you have a little patience, or just get lucky with timing, they have a great setting outside to sit back, enjoy your drink and food, and maybe read a chapter or two while taking in the classic New England scenery. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

Yas. A bakery that is closer to me that makes great bread and pastries. Potato chive croissant. Hello, my love. Never had a savory croissant I adored so much. So flaky, so flavorful. Almond croissant was good, but not the best I've had. But still tasty. Blackberry yogurt muffin, while tasty was small for the high price tag of $3+ would not buy again. Okay, lets be real here. The fougasse. It was the perfect texture, albeit a bit over salted. Not the best I've had in the state, but holds its own. Their brownie is glorious. It melts in your mouth like molten cake, but crispy like a brownie. read more

Highly recommend. Great coffee and snacks. Get there early in the morning! You will not be disappointed.
