Fresh Baguette - Pistachio Orange Blossom tart - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

So far I've tried their plain croissant, quiche Lorraine, and latte. I am in love with their quiche, it's consistently flavorful and the crust is flaky as it should be. My only critique is that sometimes when the staff heat it up the top of it actually burns and makes it taste bitter. Usually the ambience is pretty calm, most times I go in there, it isn't packed and I'm able to easily find seating. The staff are always very friendly and welcoming, they exemplify what good customer service looks like. read more

Yumm! First time trying a crogel and it didn't disappoint. It's a croissant & bagel that had a beautiful baby and it's genius. Crispy outside, soft inside. It's pricey (a little over $5 a piece) but worth a try. Service was good. Both workers that were there were nice & helpful. Would definitely recommend this place for someone who's looking for a simple but delicious sandwich. read more

Fresh Baguette - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Monday 2/24/25 This spot has been on my list for a long time, and now I'm finally trying it. The customer service was good: shoutout to Tyrese for making sure everything went smoothly. For my order I got the crogel bacon and caramelized cabbage $12.90, cinnamon roll $4.90, sweet pumpkin bread $4.10, and the Kouign Amann $4.90. - The crogel sandwich is a hybrid between a croissant and a bagel and is something I had never had or thought existed. The sandwich itself was solid, and it would've been even better if there had been more bacon to match the near $13 price tag. - The cinnamon roll is a croissant-style cinnamon roll, and it was pretty good. A personal favorite of mine and something I'd come back for. - The kouign amann is a croissant-style pastry that's not overly sweet, but it's decent and gets the job done. - The sweet pumpkin bread was alright when you factor in the price and the smaller portion you get, but it's not bad. Overall, these are some decent pastries that I'd be open to coming back for and recommend. read more

They truly know how to do breads right. I have never had something I do not loooove from Fresh Baguette, every menu item is fantastic! The Norwegian Crogel is my favorite. A crogel is a croissant bagel, by the way ;) The service is friendly, efficient, and helpful. They also have some cute umbrellas and tables outside front to sit and enjoy. The location is sort of tucked away, not picturesque, but the food makes it all worth nothing less than 5 stars. read more

It was good, a few times I had to wait for my sandwhich to be made upon arrival despite ordering well in advance. (Of those few times) There was one or two times my order went through on my end but not theirs as well. When you have young workers seemingly there by themselves you need to better explain to them how to handle these sort of situations. Lord knows MCPS did not help raise capable workers. read more

Our first visit here was wonderful. The staff was exceptionally warm and welcoming, and everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. I was also pleasantly surprised to find a few excellent gluten-free options. It's definitely worth a stop! read more

Beautiful displays, a couple of vegan options which is nice, the inside is clean and usually busy from what I can tell! Staff were helpful however this place definitely doesn't have the cozy vibe I prefer for a cafe. More like a brunch spot! read more

I randomly saw the shop this morning after stopped in front of a traffic light area. I saw the sign and i was like ohhh.there's a cafe there. So in the afternoon after work i went back and me and my daughter grabbed a few things. It was on the pricey side, but it was very good. My daughter had a chocolate croissant and i had the crogel with smoked salmon and cream cheese. Plus a madeleine. It was all great. My daughter really liked the croissant. It reminded her of Tim Hortons. It was very good and staff greeted us very warmly and patiently waited for us to choose our orders. I like how it has like a french cafe feel to the place too. read more

Who knew a Crogel Sandwich would take me back to a spot I had not been to for some time. Yea, that's right, a Cro'gel and I only recently discovered what that was. A Crogel or Cro'gel (depending on which menu you are looking at) is a cross between a croissant and a bagel. I recently had a meal at Café Sophie in Gaithersburg, MD and ate a Crogel Sandwich and it was so good that I really enjoyed it. One of my friends informed me that the Crogel at Café Sophie was made by Fresh Baguette. So, I decided to go to the place that made it. One weekend morning I decided to visit their Rockville location. I saw there was enough space to park even though I noticed the foot traffic in and out of the business stayed busy. Upon entering the door, I saw bread, pastries, drinks, snacks, croissants, and other items. It took me back to when I first went there. Behind the counter on the wall, I saw where the menu showed five Cro'gel Sandwich choices that included: Sunny Side Up Bacon, Californian, The Pesto, Village and Norwegian. I opted for the Norwegian which is smoked salmon, chive cream cheese, cucumber, and spring mix. I also got an item behind the glass compartment, and it is described as sweet bread made with a mix of pumpkin, bourbon, and cream cheese frosting. Their sign said it was Pumpkin Sweet Bread, but the menu online said Sweet Pumpkin Bread. To me, it's all pastry. I ordered everything to go. Once settled, I noticed the Cro'gel was huge. I had to cut it in quarters to make it more manageable and it was. There was also a little bit more crunch in the breading, but a soft one. The sandwich was quite tasty and fresh (everything was all balanced). I will come back to try another. The pastry was delicious too - I certainly tasted the pumpkin flavor and the frosting was not heavy. The visit was worth it. Visited February 2024. read more

Been here a few times at this location as it's on my way to work. Every time I get a sandwich here it is super good! This time I got the Californian Crogle, I was informed by owner after my original review! It was really good along with the coffee (I had it with oat milk). Definitely will be coming by again! The food doesn't take too long to make, it's always been quick and the food is great. read more

Amazing! My first order from here and everything was so delicious!! I'm super excited to have found this bakery/cafe as we order delivery often. We have gotten bored with the same couple of restaurants from whom we order - even though the food is good - because many of the other local restaurants are either not very good or have terrible reviews. So glad to now have Fresh Baguette to add to our small list of favorite restaurants! Only problem is, you'll want to try everything! read more

The food is amazing! My favorites are the Nutella croissant and the Caprese Panini (I'm not sure if that's the exact name for it). I've never had anything there that wasn't delicious. This isn't letting me give a star rating but it's five stars from me. read more

I love this little hole in the wall bakery! As a French dual-citizen, this is hands down authentic French cuisine! The staff are so friendly and even brought our food to our table. 10/10 highly recommend!! read more

Fresh Baguette in Rockville never misses. The quiches were rich and flavorful, the cinnamon buns were perfectly soft and sweet, and the croissants were buttery and flaky in the best way. Omer gave amazing service and made the whole experience even better. Definitely one of my favorite bakery spots around here. read more

I love this place. It's pastries and bread. Products are so yummy. I particularly love the crogels. It's great for bread products, but also for a nice breakfast or lunch and it's a really lovely atmosphere and the people who work there are very very nice. read more

Delicious sandwiches and pastries. Everything croissants are my favorite. Always tasty and fresh!

Incredible taste. I had TBLT. So yummy. But the Lemkn Tarte is the best I have had out side of Paris. The BEST. Shuttle lemon So good. read more

We've been coming here for years. One of the few authentic French bakery's in the area. Definitely worth a try if you haven't been. Their pastries are delicious and so are their sandwiches! Staff is always super friendly! read more

This authentic French bakery is both a boulangerie and patisserie, with a myriad of fresh-baked breads, buttery pastries (kouign-amann, croissants, pan au escargot) and cookies (macarons) and cakes. They also have delicious quiches and sandwiches for lunch fare. The store sell imported French products (boxes of crackers, cookies and jars of spreads). I love their various croissants, la madeleines, and canales. The buttery layers of pastry sheets are so delicate and flaky. What also makes them great are the occasional little contests they hold that give people opportunities to win baguettes or croissants. One contest last year involved sending pictures, videos or poems to them about our love for Fresh Baguette. Service is always friendly and professional. Will be back to try more sweets (napoleons, cheesecake, cream puffs). read more

Fresh Baguette - Picture outside cafe with their mini croissant and regular croissant for their contest - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

If you need to order mini sweet treats, this may be your spot. Cute, pretty affordable. I wish I could say I love everything I've gotten here, but that is not the case. I'd stick to the small mini treats . . . read more

Mini Crogel is totally a must. Perfect sized bite, great taste, and good price point. If your real hungy, get the regular sized, but at double the price. Caneles, in my opinion, is a pass. Not that crusty on the outside, overcooked on the inside, and a weird metallic taste. I am not sure how else to describe it, but I would never order Caneles again from this location. read more

Love this bakery! It's a little hidden off of 355, but if you know where to look, you won't miss it's bright pink sign! From 355, it's a little hard to see because it's sort of behind other building from the main road. They have this croissant bagel that is delicious!! I enjoy the chicken one more than the salmon, only because it has like Mayo or some kind of sauce. Also I loooove croissants and bagels! So to combine the two, genius! They have chocolate, plain, and Nutella croissants too! Come early because these sell out! They have a ton other tasty pastries to select from too! There's a nice little seating area that gets some sun. So you could always eat outside here as well. Tons of parking available. It's nice because since it's not quite on 355, it's a quiet outdoor spot. read more

Fresh Baguette - Salmon Cro'Gel Sandwich Norwegian - Bakeries Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I was craving a sandwich and found this place on a quick yelp search and their crog'el (croissant bagels) immediately grabbed my attention. I ordered the crog'el Californian which included roasted turkey, avocado, and oregano aioli mayo. I was expecting a buttery taste from the crog'el but instead it was hard and dry. It was flaky but it was missing the croissant element. The turkey was also pretty dry and the mayo did not help that. Ultimately, I would give this place another chance and try something else on the menu. read more

I love getting the too good to go bags from fresh baguettes, because their pastries always looks fresh, even at the end of the day. It shows alot about their commitment to the quality and taste of their product, and I have nothing but good things to say about every pastry I have tried from here. My favourite though, is the canele, as I feel like there isn't many places selling them. Service is great everytime I go. the bakery has outdoor seating and ample parking, tucked behind some shops. read more

I have been going here a for a while and have many favorites. I love the village sandwich, the pumpkin loaf, the raspberry tart and the almond croissants. The staff are always friendly and helpful with recommendations. I am so sad to hear that the sweet breads are going away soon so I bought a few of the mini pumpkin loaves at my last visit. Please consider keeping them!! Overall, a really great place to eat a meal and dessert. read more

I ordered a mango nectar drink, the ham croque monsieur, napoleon pastry, and an almond croissant. Food: -Croque Monsieur - It was my first time having one. It tasted like a regular ham and cheese sandwich to me. It didn't really stand out to me. Maybe I should have added a little salt and pepper to give it extra flavor. The sandwich was hearty and the slices were larger than average. -Custard Napoleon- A bit on the sweeter side. Some may find it too sweet, but I have a sweet tooth so I didn't mind it at all. It was my favorite item of everything I ordered. The puff pastry was flaky as it should be. I would rank it among one of the best I have ever had. -Almond croissant - I toasted this for breakfast the next morning. It was substantial in size, but I generally like more almond cream in my almond croissants. There wasn't enough butter or cream so it was slightly dry. -They sell pre-packaged pastries and freshly baked loaves of bread. Service - The staff who took my order was friendly. She asked if I wanted my Croque Monsieur warmed up and if I wanted a carryout bag. Pricing - $26 for my order. On the pricier end for a bakery IMO. It was definitely a splurge for me. It will definitely prepare me for Paris if I ever go. I hear it's expensive there. Seating - There are four 2 seat tables inside and outdoor patio seating. My chair had crumbs on it and I had to wipe it down. Location/Parking- If you see Tapei Cafe which has a red awning, the bakery is tucked behind it. There is ample parking in front of the bakery and to the side. I found a dead mouse in one of the parking spaces. Cringe, I'm surprised I didn't lose my appetite. Final Thoughts - I will definitely come back to try other items when I'm nearby. My friend recommended the tiramisu, which she says is her favorite. read more

So happy I found this hidden place. It doesn't look like it has parking but there's plenty hidden on the side. I got a sandwich for lunch and it was much bigger than I expected which is great. The pictures made it sort of look breakfast sized but it was a nice portion for lunch. The ice coffee was really good. Some places the coffee tastes bitter but whatever they use here tasted nice and smooth. The desserts look so amazing! I need to workout more so I can indulge myself read more

Delicious breads and pastries. My eyes were much larger than my stomach on this stop. The breads are so good! I would have liked to try more but what I had was fantastic. The breakfast sandwich was really good. The flaky bagel type bread was unique and new to me. I enjoyed it. There was a perfect mixture of toppings. I liked how the greens and the cheese paired. The baguette was the right mix of chewy and crust. It had a hint of salt that would be perfect to dip into olive oil. If you are into French styled pastries or bread then this should be on your list to go to. Highly recommended read more

What a hidden gem! Was pleasantly surprised to find this place. I ordered a mille feuille or "Napoleon" pastry. I've been searching for one ever since my favorite place stopped selling it. The cream was a little too sweet for my liking but I can see myself getting it again. Another thing I loved about this place was that you could buy some French snacks (which I went all out on). It's a little pricey for the pastries but they also come in a pretty hefty serving size. Try to go earlier in the day if you can, by the time I went it was close to closing and there weren't as many pastries left. read more
