    The lady is always very welcoming. The shells for the tartelettes were being assembled in the back when I visited at 9 AM on a weekday. The croissant diplomates looked very tasty. I chose the pistachio and chocolate cream version because of the pretty colors. The croissant isn't very crispy but was thick and tasty with the creams. The chocolate meringue was crispy, light, and fine texture.

    This way, I mean that way!!!

    Someone said it is the little things in life that bring you joy and after my experience at Chefs Providence the saying is reaffirmed. They bring the authentic European feel the minute you step into the boulangerie. The displays of the breads, pâtisserie and viennoiserie, the intimate, tight flow of the inside, the presence of the staff, the lingering whiff as you inhale the aromatic delights brought back moments of past travels with just a few euros in my pocket, backpack and a RATP ticket. If you want AUTHENTIC French, this is the spot!! The chef is classically trained, loves what he does and it is evident in each bite. The visit is not complete without taking home a fresh baguette. Savor the experience by listening for that small crack of the outer layer followed by the steam and softness of the inside and if you want the full experience spread some Le Gall butter, gruyère cheese and a few slices of ham. Oh and when I say the full French experience, I mean the full experience..do not enter and start looking at the menu to order....say the greeting of the day or you might just get side-eyed as some patrons found out.

    Who would've thought there'd be an authentic French bakery in Old Town Spring! The place is super cute inside and out... cozy shop in a village vibes. If you squint, you'll feel like you're in the countryside of France. The lady who was working was very sweet and enthusiastically explained all their different pastries to me. I ended up buying quite a few. They are quite generous with the butter! Every pastry tasted fresh and buttery. My favorite was the chicken mushroom one that I got, but the lemon meringue comes in at a close second. I highly recommend stopping by here if you happen to be in this area of town for some authentic French pastries!

    Wow what an amazing place! All the pastries are made from scratch and not only look incredible but taste equally so. The owners are so nice and friendly! Can't wait to go back and try everything! FYI they have great coffee too

    Chefs kiss - Went to Old Town Spring this morning with my granddaughter and had the most wonderful service!! I bought goodies to take home and we also enjoyed a goodie while we were there.. Everyone please give them a try the deserts brought me back in time from when I lived in Europe and reminded me of how much I miss it..

    Croissants like you've never had them before. The chicken and mushroom pastry was so good too.

    Great place to grab coffee and some pastries and pies. Parking is difficult to find in old town spring.

    This was such a wonderful French bakery tucked away in old town Spring. I found it while checking out the annual Mercer plant sale and so glad I did. It was a Saturday afternoon and OTS was popping, making parking very difficult to find. However, I was not deterred because pastries were on the line. Anyways, after parking and having lunch, we finally made our way to Chefs Providence. Its a small, unassuming shop with some outdoor seating. The owners were very nice, welcomed us, and gave us a quick rundown of some of their pastries and specials. I ended up going for a chocolate almond croissant, a pear almond tart, and a pistachio chocolate verrine. I would have gotten so much more but my wallet and my stomach could not afford anything else. The croissant was buttery with a perfectly bittersweet chocolate. Its become my current favorite croissant in Houston. The desserts were both super well balanced, not overly sweet, and flavors came through. The pistachio mousse was super light and creamy and went really well layered with a rich, dense chocolate cake, along with some whipped cream to lighten the whole dessert. The pear almond tart was very well baked with a subtley sweet almond base and very flavorful pears. I'm definitely impressed such a wonderful French bakery exists out here and sad it's a bit of a drive for me. However, I'dd definitely drive out for a pastry run and its a must stop for anyone in old town spring or wanting delicious pastries/desserts!

    Almond Croissant + Iced Vanilla Coffee

    Absolutely delicious! This is the best place I've had an Almond Croissant. So crispy and flaky! It's smells wonderful as soon as you walk in. I stop by once a week if I can. :)

    Lemon Meringue Tart

    Beautiful delicious pastries from beautiful kind people in a beautiful setting. My 2nd time back and I know I'll be back again!

    A must visit! The best pastries in Old Town Spring (in I'd say a good 20 mile radius, though Buren Bakery next door is quite good latin bakery). Authentic (and ridiculously delicious) French pastries and gift shop. Attentive and kind service. Quaint and adorable decorations complete with lots of Parisian touches.

I don't come often because parking is always a nightmare, and tonight was no exception. When I showed them the app, the staff seemed confused on how to do a redemption. So they had to call the owner for help. The owner apparently told them not to honor the redemption because they were in the process of switching rewards program platforms, and what used to be a 50‑point reward was going to be a 300‑point reward. The staff said my points would transfer eventually, but I only will have 63 -- not enough under the new system. Hey, I'm no entrepreneur. But I am a customer who eats out all the time. And to me this is a textbook example of an owner who doesn't get customer service. I drove all the way there, dealt with the parking, and came specifically to redeem a reward that still showed as valid in their app. It's not my fault their system hadn't switched over yet. These cakeball and truffle treats are only the size of a donut hole. It's not one of their higher end desserts. The obvious right move would've been to honor the reward and give the customer the treat. But nope. They chose the stingy route instead. And with that one decision, they lost another customer. Congrats and enjoy your cakeballs.

Ordered this Chinese-styled birthday cake over the phone on Wed for pick up on Saturday for a special birthday celebration for my dad.

It had strawberries, grapes, canned peaches and kiwi. It was absolutely delicious and fed 14 adults for $52 and worth it. We would definitely order another from here as we saw so many other delicious cakes in the display when we went to pick up ours.

The worker immediately came to service me and my interest in the display case items after checking out a prior patron. She shared the ingredients of the desserts I was interested to make sure I didn't have any allergies and the flavor profiles would interest me. Each items I selected was carefully boxed and packaged with care. I picked up the blueberry cake, chocolate cake, fruit tart, and vanilla bean bun. One thing I love about Asian pastries is that they're not overly sweet, and Anna's Bakery nails that balance. All the cakes were light and flavorful. One drawback I had was the moisture levels in the actual cake. The chocolate cakes were extra dry and overall all the flavors I selected were drier than what I'm accustomed to. The fruit tart had ripe but firm fruit, a fluffy cream base, and a cookie crust that was tasty without being too rich. The strawberries, dragonfruit, and grapes were all at peak ripeness. Best part? I didn't get the usual post‑dessert heaviness -- everything felt light and satisfying. I'll definitely be back to try the mousse selections and some of their savory bakes. The only reason it doesn't get a 5 star rating is because this particular location has fewer options than other locations I have visited.

Have been craving for fries lately and when I saw Common Bond, was very excited but they didn't carry the thick truffle fries which I was so fond of in the other Common Bond. Still, it was good fries and the staff was very friendly.... many high schoolers doing a summer job so they are super nice. They have a rewards program running - once registered, $spent is $earned in points which can be redeemed later. Staff was friendly and seemed like some of them were high schoolers or sort of, doing summer jobs so they were extra courteous and cautious - it was very much appreciated The fresh pastries were inviting and they had a big menu of other eats too. For me Common Bond and their specialty small dessert cakes went hand in hand. And this bakery did keep up that reputation- they had some sumptuous looking mini cakes. Definitely worth a visit.

I had a couple dollar bills and sped to it before closing, did get cuernitos, cinnamon cookies, and my all time-fave conchas. The conchas were my favorite by far, the cinnamon cookies very powdery, sugary and dusty which is just the way I like it, the cuernitos however I was a little disappointed since they were rally hard even the center with the yellow which is my favorite part. It could be that I did get 2 out of the last 3 they had but I felt they were a little too small and hard for my comfort. The employee was direct and on the mission to check me out which I can understand when there is only 15 minutes until closing time OR perhaps the fact that there was a misfortunate " language barrier" which there wasn't but I like to believe that people miss that I too speak Spanish. The prices were a little higher than I typically pay at a Mexican bakery but I still managed to pay with the cash I had in hand. I will stop by one more time and give them another chance, when you make a late night trip close to closing you get slim pickin's and will come at a more reasonable time.
