    Great bread and pastries. And soup so good. I usually stop in for lunch ( closed tuesdays) for a sandwich and soup. Priced a little higher than area lunch spots, but soooo good. I always tray and fail to resist the lure of pastries in the case. Fast service at counter. Sometimes hard to find a spot to sit. Place is usually filled up with people sitting comfortably and chatting. Cute place; a couple picnic tables out back are usually open.

    Cocotte is an easy five stars for me. The space is charming and inviting and the staff could not be lovelier. The menu has fun coffee options and so many chocolatey pâtisserie choices that make it feel like a little treat every time I visit. Everything tastes thoughtful and the atmosphere makes you want to linger. A genuine neighborhood gem.

    A great experience for a Saturday morning visit. It was very busy and understandably so. The pastries were excellent. The bread is delicious and the breakfast and lunch much options looked amazing. My order was to go and I would have liked to have stayed but I decided it was too busy. If I lived in the area I would be back for the bakery experience but I did not like my French Kiss latte. It tasted like a really sweet watered down coffee. Perhaps their other offerings are better and I'd try them if I go back but that would not be the main reason to go back. French pastries.. yes. Drinks nah. Because there was so many people it was really loud and difficult to hear the servers though they tried and did a good job.

    What a great find! Delicious for breakfast and lunch. They also have the most amazing pastries and desserts. Plenty of inside seating (even a little kid reading/play area) and outdoor seating. I just wish they were open later than 3pm!

    Grilled Cheese Special
    Tiffany K.

    Amazing experience. Today they had tomato basil soup of the day and the special was a grilled cheese. The grilled cheese was on a croissant with caramelized onions and was the best one I've had in my whole life! The soup was delicious as well. I hope they make the grilled cheese and tomato basil soup a permanent menu item. There was nothing special about the ambiance but it was a pleasant space- nothing negative to say. I will definitely go back.

    Hand down, the best patisserie. Service was quick and everything we tried was delish. The only thing I didn't care for was the canelle...texture was denser and mochi-like chewy - which isn't my preference, tho you may enjoy it. Can't wait to go back.

    Such a cute French bakery in Cornelius. I loved the atmosphere and everyone inside was super friendly. I ordered the coffee cube croissant. It was huge! It was filled with a delicious coffee cream. The white chocolate on top was a little too sweet for me. But overall, it was a great pastry!

    Crème Brûlée Brioche, Almond Croissant, Vanilla Eclair, and the last one I don't know the name. But it's amazing!

    Although Cocotte is a bit of a drive for me, it's absolutely worth every mile. The pastries are truly phenomenal--fresh, beautifully made, and full of authentic French flavor. The service is always warm and friendly, which makes each visit even better. If you're looking for a bakery that delivers incredible quality and a welcoming atmosphere, Cocotte is definitely the place. Highly recommend!

    I've been here twice and both times have easily been the best experiences I've had at a cafe in Charlotte/ surrounding region. I came for breakfast on a Saturday, and though it was packed the service was speedy. We got the Breakfast sandwich as well as a few pastries. Although the sandwich stays in a warmer and is premade I promise it is just as good if it were made fresh. The croissant is still soft and flaky, the eggs aren't dried out, and the overall flavor is just so good!! I also have come for lunch and got the Saint Germain sandwich. Wow!! So happy they use fresh turkey and not pre-sliced deli meat. It was incredible. I really love this cafe and will make it a point to stop by anytime I'm in the area.

    Breakfast sandwich, apple tartelette, and fruit (that was my side for the quiche)
    Andi M.

    My husband and I were very excited to finally have a French bakery in the area, and we waited until after their soft opening before giving them a try for breakfast. It's a little confusing for first-time orders. There's a staff member who takes your order, but she doesn't input orders into a register, so you need to repeat your order to pay with another person. We ordered the Quiche Lorraine, breakfast sandwich (with scrambled eggs, bacon, and cheese), apple tartelette, and two small lattes (each with an extra shot of espresso). The quiche and sandwiches are premade and kept in a case behind the register, so your food is ready very fast. My only issue with this method is that both our quiche and the breakfast sandwich were only slightly warm. They could have benefitted from a warm-up in the microwave before delivering them to us. That said, everything was delicious. The quiche slice was generous, and it had plenty of onions and cheese. It came with a side of choice, and I had the fruit. I would have preferred that the onions be more cooked in the quiche, as they were still crunchy. The breakfast sandwich was both of our favorites. The croissant was fluffy, yet still very crispy. It was also generously filled. The apple tartelette had a thick crust and not a lot of filling, but the crust was still very good. Our lattes were also very good, and a very reasonable price ($5.50 each). All told, we enjoyed our meal, and will return.

    Looked for a bakery on yelp and we were pleasantly surprised with this quintessential Parisian bakery. Everything was amazing to look at look at and even better to eat!

    A French bakery that actually has real French tasting goodies. It's been so hard to find in NC on my travels . Finally lucked out here! Stopped by on a Sunday in my way to charlotte. Wish they had an actual sign on their building but they don't just so you know. The place was packed for breakfast/brunch. They have a nice menu for sit down or take out. Sandwiches and pastries and charcuterie. Breads to go , delicious desserts . Ample room in store for seating but it was packed even then. They have a nice French vibe. Lots of merchandise on sale too as well as the food. I got some things to go . The eclairs were amazing and l had the chocolate and the almond. The passion fruit cube croissant I bought for a friend and she loved the shape and the taste. Nice and buttery and flaky. I took home the almond croissant and the pain au chocolat. These were north amazing. So buttery and each layer stayed crisp til the next day. We air fried it a few mins and it was perfect. The pain au chocolat was my absolute fave. Airy and flaky with really good quality chocolate. You have to try this if you go. I am definitely going back to eat in store. I wish their hours were longer but I guess 3pm it is. I will make it work somehow! It's not cheap but the quality speaks for itself. Worth the $$$. Excited for an actual authentic French bakery !

    See all

The decline in food quality and inattentive service have removed this restaurant from our rotation.

The workers are very friendly and very attentive to what we needed. If I needed something, I did not have to wait for a long period of time for them to bring it to the table which I greatly appreciated. I ordered two fish tacos, which came with a side of black beans as well as the crab hush puppies. All of the food was very good and fresh! The fish tacos were very, very big and I liked the coleslaw and sauce that was on the top. It added a nice texture to the tacos. The fish was very crispy and it was well balanced throughout the taco. I only finished one of the tacos while I was there because they were that big! The black beans tasted like they had some type of neckbones or something smoky in it, but there was no meat in them at all. Delicioso!! My only gripe is that the side of black beans was very small. Nonetheless, it is something that I would go back for. The crab hush puppies were very good. The hush puppies were not dry, but they were moist and the crab melted in very nicely with the hush puppy mixture. I ordered eight and I promise you that I could eat a whole 12 or 16 of them by myself lol My guest ordered a patio margarita which was about seven dollars and said it was good and boozy. The drinks are standard pricing ranging from about $6-18. Overall, I'm very pleased that I finally tried this place.

This is a nice restaurant situated in a little old single-story house that faces onto an inner courtyard in the old part of Huntersville. Breakfast, lunch, and a full bar pretty much can take care of whatever you're looking for. The main dining room is furnished with an eclectic assortment of mismatched chairs and tables, but it all seems to work. There is also a short bar for those eating alone. Kids are welcome, and they even have a box of toys for kids to amuse themselves with while others dine. Everyone in our group had some kind of breakfast offering ... and they offered some really creative choices. Service was on point, and everything came out together and hot. The only misstep was the lack of onion on one order. Coffee was hearty. They have a lot of outdoor seating in back facing the courtyard, and even some in the front yard: these outdoor arears effectively double the seating capacity of the restaurant, and both are totally dependent on the weather.
