    Pecan Praline Caramel Tart
    Genevieve M.

    3.5/5 Not an extensive selection but a good combined offering of savory and sweet pastries. Prices can be a little steep but given that this is freshly made and a local business.... I keep that in mind. I enjoyed the mocha cream puff... the cream was so good and the puff light and airy. The pecan praline tart was a bit hard to eat.. the crust was quite hard to bite into or even cut. The filling was good but it was messy just trying to get a bite without fighting with the pastry. This is one of two locations (the smaller one) and can also be found at the farmers market. This location has a few outdoor seating chairs with sunbrellas. . The outdoor seating is adjacent to a busy road and so do expect traffic sounds. There is some parking in front but quite hard to score a spot... and most of the spots are 10 min parking. There is however ample free parking in the back. I will try them again because I am going to assume the tart was a one off given the cream puff was delicious.

    I'm so glad that one of my favorite bakeries in town opened a central location! I definitely had to check it out for a sweet Saturday treat and was not disappointed! There was a queue out the door the whole time I was there. Plenty of shade to stand in and parking upfront and behind the store. Inside is super cute, pink and bright! Same amazing pastries from their east side location just a little closer to home. Drinks also available and some patio seating out front. Their menu does change weekly so follow them on Facebook or instagram to see the beautiful pics and list of goodies for the week. Love the husband and wife team who run this place, always polite , friendly and you can really feel the passion they put in to the business. Definitely check them out!

    How very lucky to have cafe Francais open its second store near me. I was a regular at the original shore. Although I often would get croissants and Love, the selection that they offered. The new store doesn't seem to have the same selection. Nonetheless, I found myself trying their savory options. My last visit I had their ham and cheese croissant sandwich with Béchamel sauce and mustard, and it was excellent. Today I picked up their green chili ham quiche pastry, and was blown away. They often offer bread, macaroons, drinks, in addition to scones, monkey bread, and croissants. Today there seemed to be newer items like a pizza danish, and apple fritters. The inside is compact with a restroom, and seating is outside only. Parking is in the back. There is some parking on Broadway but extremely limited and hard to exit out of from Broadway. Every visit has been crowded but I get friendly. Non- rushed service every time. My only issue is it's pricey. A father and son came in after me getting essentially donuts, and paid $50. Most everything will be delicious but also with high quality ingredients you pay more than other spots. It hasn't stopped me from coming but it's $9.50 for a pizza danish when you can get a whole pizza at close to the same price. Today I wanted to get one more thing but just didn't want to pay spend $30 for three pastries. The menu is posted on Instagram but often things sell out quickly. It can be disappointing if you come for a Dubai chocolate tart and hear they sold out.

    Super excited about this new location! Croissants and Kouigns are so amazing and super delicious this place will not disappoint.

    Fruit tart! Delicious! A little sweet and not very tart which I like!

    The fruit tart was amazing! Their pastries are large so you're definitely getting your monies worth. They change their pastries often allowing for a plethora of flavors that make many taste buds happy.

    Their food is great and they are very pleasant. I've enjoyed everything that I've bought from them. Both locations have adequate parking.

    First visit today after seeing the video of banana cinnamon roll about a week ago. Arrived about 20…read moreminutes before opening and were about 4th in line. Lots of other nice people hanging out. The space has a really nice feel to it and very much appreciate the awesome misters and fans. Doors opened promptly at 10am with Peachy coming out to say hi. Had a bit of a visit to Wonka factory feel to me. Made it into the ordering area quickly and the inside is beautifully decorated. Floral accents everywhere in pink and even icing piping on the display case. Very cool vibe. Nobody was rushed and service was efficient and friendly. We got the banana and a carrot cake for my wife and I. Friends got another banana, a classic, and a biscoff. We shared them all. My favorite were the classic and the banana. All of them have the base cinnamon roll which is fantastic. Light, fluffy, soft, amazingness. All the flavors are so well done. I tend to not love things overly sweet and these were excellent. Don't sweat which one you choose, you can't go wrong. For what it is worth there was a line for about an hour but it moves. Got pretty small again by around 11am. Peachy, I love what you are doing and look forward to coming back. One request..... can you sell some bottles of milk? Your stuff just cries for a moo juice pairing. If not, no big deal. I know to bring my own now.

    I took my son here since he loves cinnamon rolls and was tagging along with me to work. He ordered…read morethe red velvet cinnamon roll, which was incredibly moist, not overly sweet, and the frosting was absolutely to die for. I went with a box of kawaii cookies. They were a little on the pricey side ($15 for four), but they were so buttery and delicious that it felt worth it. I also ordered the matcha cloud, which was refreshing and tasty. I loved that you can customize the sweetness of your drink. The service was prompt and friendly. I definitely recommend this place, especially for little girls, it's very pink, cute, and fun

    Solid pies! Stopped…read morehere while in Tucson to get some pies. I went with a Chocolate Pecan, a German Chocolate, and an Apple Crumb. All pies are $7.99 each. Can't beat that price! All 3 pies were pretty tasty. I would rank the Chocolate Pecan #1, Apple Crumb #2 and German Chocolate #3. I will definitely stop by again the next time I am in Tucson and try out 3 more flavors. Staff was incredibly friendly, the size of the pies for the price is great, and the variety of pies is extensive. Cool little spot!

You order your pies and take them to go. There is no seating. The girl working the counter was fantastic. She was friendly and helped answer my questions. They have a selection of pies, from fruit and cream to pot pies. They are all decently sized "mini" pies for $7.99. Plus if you return 10 pie tins you get a free pie. I ordered the Kahlua cream cheese and a strawberry margarita. In true fashion of wanting to try both I took a quarter of each. This was a lot of pie! I should have only tried one per night. The flavors are good and blend together beautifully that it isn't too terribly rich or tart. These are a fun treat to have as I don't have pie often. There are other flavors I will definitely be trying in the future.
