Some places are so good that you forget to leave a review and take pictures because you're too busy enjoying the food. That perfectly describes La Fillette. We've dined inside before, but yesterday we stopped in to pick up pastries and were reminded why this is one of our favorite bakeries in Denver. We grabbed an éclair, a blueberry muffin, and two ham and Swiss croissants. Every single thing was outstanding. The croissants are incredibly flaky and buttery with the perfect ratio of ham and Swiss, the blueberry muffin was moist without being overly sweet, and the éclair disappeared embarrassingly fast. We always have every intention of taking pictures... and then we take one bite and completely forget. That's probably the best compliment we can give. We loved sitting inside, which is intimate, cozy but still roomy. We are looking forward to sitting outside in their patio space. Staff are also exceptional! read more

La Fillette Bakery - Cozy inside - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

WHOA! An amazing French bakery in an unassuming strip mall in Denver where everything is absolutely delicious. GREAT BRUNCH SPOT! Somewhat small on the inside with a cute bar, a variety of both high and low top seating, and a bakery case for quick ordering near the entrance. Service was excellent and it was clean and bright inside. The food was out of this world good. First off, I'm a sucker for a London Fog and this was one of the best I've had. Their cocktails all look super good and will be back to try some. Our table ordered a variety of meals and some pastries to-go. We tried the hash, Benny, stuffed French toast, veggie omelet, sourdough baguette, macarons, croissants, and a pop tart. For the meals: - hash (corned beef is perfectly cooked and it's a nice sized portion with a runny poached egg on top and hollandaise over a crispy/well-seasoned Rösti - very good but a little on the heavy side for me) - benny (loved the flavors of this one and that duck confit was so flavorful and tender. Also, loved the bright, refreshing salad it comes with) - veggie omelet (I didn't try this one, but my brother in law said it was a great, traditional omelet - nice and cheesy) - stuffed French toast (WOWWWW - no notes. It was sublime. The passionfruit stuffing was to die for and it comes with a candied honeycomb. Not something I normally order, but we split it for the table and everyone wanted another one it was so good!) The sourdough baguette is perfect and has little flakes of sea salt on the crust. Crunchy on the outside and soft and spongey on the inside. All of the pastries are delicious and I've got my eye on so many more things for the next visit. 10/10 experience. read more

Amazing! The pastries are so delicious, fresh, and high quality. You can see them baking everything when you walk in. I tried the ham and cheese croissant and the green chili savory roll, and both were perfect. Flaky, buttery, and still warm. If you are just ordering pastries, you can pay at the counter which is convenient. They also offer a sit-down brunch option which I will definitely be returning to try. read more

This is such a great brunch spot and since it's a bakery, all the breads are delicious! I really enjoyed the duck confit eggs Benedict which was on croissant toast. The farrow salad had delicious candied almonds and the stuffed French toast was so unique! I loved the passion fruit filling. They also have a build you own breakfast sandwich with a variety of breads, proteins and fillings to choose from which I haven't seen before. My friend and I got there at 10:45 on a Saturday and were seated right away. Service was attentive. The inside is cute and there is also an outdoor patio. Lots of parking in the parking lot as well as street parking. Will be back to try their over the counter pastries! read more

I'm ssooo happy I finally got to try La Fillette! I first saw it on Instagram and immediately put it on my "got to try" list. Parking isn't bad, I suggest going during the week. There is a small patio for seating and there is more seating inside in the dining and bar areas. The staff is super friendly and makes you feel very welcome and excited to be there. It's bright and cheery and I love the color scheme and decor. The seats are comfy and the bar is quaint. I got the latte, the green chili skillet and an almond croissant to go (don't tell but it didn't make it out of the parking lot it was so good!) Everything was so good and we wanted to try it all so of course I'm going back! read more

Cute bakery with lots of pastries and baked goods. Menu had a ton of options that it was hard to select what to choose for brunch! There weren't very many GF options but they do their best to cater to dietary restrictions (I think they offered 3-4 options at least). Service was quick and friendly! Food was also very good, but my croissant sandwich was a bit too oily for my liking. Not sure from what though, if it was from the sautéed spinach or warmed up croissant, but it pooled on my plate which shouldn't be the case with a sandwich. Wish the lattes would have had a cute design too! read more

The food and pastries are amazing! It can get busy but the wait is worth it. The staff is friendly and attentive.

This place was very good! We tried several regular croissants, chocolate croissants, almond, gruyere, green chili and cheddar, and the stick bun. Everything was very good. The center of some of the croissants were on the chewy/doughy side, but they were still the best croissants that I've had in Denver so far. The staff seemed friendly, and they seem to have a very extensive drink and breakfast menu. I plan to try it again, perhaps dine in. read more

Friendly service! We hadn't visited since they moved locations and now have sit down space-- with both indoor and outdoor seating. I like that they have a DIY croissant sandwich, but they were out of duck confit (my personal favorite). Their assortment of fillings is perfect. We liked the bagel pretzel, but had to request it be warmed. The pretzel wasn't even room-temp, but cold, which made it really tough. Once it was heated, it was delicious! read more

We loved the ham and cheese croissant and the colorado hash! The london fog was also a refreshing tea based drink. Everyone was super friendly and attentive and also welcoming. We also liked the green tiles backdrop at the bar area and the colors of the cutlery, bowls ,etc. We will be def be back if we ever go back to Denver for a visit. read more

GO HERE!! Right now!!! Just do it!! Trust me!! Was in town visiting a friend. I was craving a croissant like my life depended on it! We found this bakery and decided to give it a try!! Y'all!! I was transported to heaven!! Their chai latte was delicious!! Very "spicy" as in lots of spices! I got the classic BLT with egg, yes!! Their Rosti is by far the best thing I've had in a while!! 10/10 would recommend!! read more

I have had their baked goods before but wanted to try out their breakfast/brunch items. Everything was delicious. We sat out on the patio with my dog tied to the outside. The patio is not super big but was clean. Service was great and they were hustling on a Sunday ! Definitely got busy since it was Easter. Everything was delicious. The stuffed French toast was a bit too sweet with the lemon curd for me but overall just a wonderful spot to get breakfast! read more

I'm so happy for their bigger location! Their bread and croissants are amazing. Let alone their brunch. The Benny sounds like a lot, but it is a perfect balance with the duck confit and not an overpowering green chili hollandaise and so delicious on the croissant. The avocado toast sounds pricey, but it comes on a rather large piece of sourdough toast. The service was great, and the food came out rather quickly. The place is still not that big, but they do have an open patio during the nice weather. I cant wait to come back and one day get a loaf of their sourdough. read more

Had high hopes, cute place, fun location, (although parking can be tricky especially on weekends). We went mid week, mid morning and the place was not very busy. The service was meh, coffee drinks warm at best and the breakfast presentation was lovely but really lacked flavor. The pretzel and bread I purchased to take home were great, will give them one more try. read more

La Fillette Bakery translates to "Little Girl Bakery" but they only produce BIG GIRL FLAVORS! Be prepared to be extremely WOW'D by the pastries, you'll want to order everything you see. Follow your tastebuds (or eyes), nothing will disappoint! Mine led me to the Morning Bun... the mature version of a cinnamon roll. It exchanged icing for a demerara sugar coating and cinnamon swirls for zesty orange notes. ABSOLUTELY WHIMSICALLY DELICIOUS! It's what I imagine Mary Poppins has for breakfast because it instantly fills you with cheer and the positive pep you need to get your day moving n' grooving! Plus, if you dine in, you'll have lovely service in a delightfully designed cafe. You'll feel cute. You might even use your imagination and pretend you are in Europe. :D Can't wait to go back and try more! read more

WOW...honestly just WOW. Did I think I'd find the best croissant I've ever had in Denver? ...never but oh boy did I. I've been on the search for a great croissant and this place delivered. It was flaky on the outside and warm and the best kind of doughy and buttery on the inside. For a plain croissant it was so flavorful. This was the perfect flaky buttery little pillow. I will 1000% be back to try brunch. For Derek to say "let's come back here" in regards to eating out... never happens but these croissants were mouth watering Also the girls at the front were incredibly friendly and sweet! read more

What a good find for a nice little brunch date! Good food, good atmosphere, but average coffee. We got a cappuccino and a latte but we found both coffee to be in the average side. My cappuccino had sour notes and did not take good. They get their coffee from Logan house and I probably just don't like their roasts. The potato rosti was good and savory. The fondue was cheesy and I believe the potato was made with lard/fat? It was crispy, flaky and tasty. This gets a solid 5. The duck confit is probably the best Benedict I've had in all of Colorado. They used croissants instead of English muffins, the duck meat was tender, and the Benny sauce was delightful. The side salad was refreshing as well. We thought we would like the French toast more but ended up not finishing it since we became full. I would give it a solid 4. Overall it was a great experience but compared to other French cafes, it's hard to justify the price point of their menu. It's in the higher end and we ended up spending 80 dollars. Though their croissants were good, it's not the best in Denver. read more

Best Quiche in Denver!!! Amazing! A must try. They have moved and I have followed. I've never actually eaten on site however. I consistently order a whole Quiche Loraine and bring to bring home. it is to die for delicious. Light ,fluffy and the crust is out of this world!! The staff has always been helpful and kind. La Fillette is a definite go to of mine. High quality and extreamly tastey food!! read more

Excellent coffee, creative breakfast options, efficient service. What more do you need? The stuffed French toast is a must! Would also recommend the avocado toast (nice riff on what can be pretty meh). Not sure it's always this way, but we only had to wait about 10 minutes for a 4-top on a Saturday around 10:30. Another nice feature: parking, plenty of it. They're in a strip center with a big lot. The only thing we didn't love was the level of of the music. At times it was hard to hear each other, which is kind of the point of dining out with friends in my opinion. read more

Best vanilla lattes I have had in years. We dined in and got another to go when we left. The pastries were fresh, buttery, and flaky. Small area and pretty crowded but the service was quick and friendly. Will be going back again. read more

It is actually insane how good the food is here! Love love love this place! The food is so unique and delicious, and the bakery items are amazing too. We came here for brunch on several different occasions and it exceeded our expectations every time. Service is great, food is incredible, and such a cute spot for brunch! Drinks are amazing, and did i say the food was incredible? We got the French onion French dip, stuffed French toast, Guyere pretzel, macarons, cupcakes, and sourdough! Also ordered a screwdriver and mimosas. The macarons were the only thing that weren't my favorite- I wish there wasn't so much food coloring. Overall, we will definitely be back! This spot has quickly become one of our regulars. read more

On a Sunny Sunday, stopping in for a bite at La Fillette has made our day even brighter more than once. Last weekend was no exception. While it's a cluster by the front door, once seated, you find an airy, bright, and open setting. I like the high back community table against the back wall for people watching and space. The bakery case is loaded with treats savory and sweet--croissants, cookies and more with Italian and French roots. I'm a fan of any pastry with green chile, especially here. The breakfast sandwiches earn their stellar rep, but we were there for lighter fare this time. My nitro cold brew packed the requisite punch, sweetened with cream and sugar. Zoom. Mexican coke for the little guy hit the spot. I noted they serve Cerebral as their house brewer. Quality matters with beer, too. So does local. Thanks. My French onion soup arrived piping hot, topped w a thick layer of Gruyere over a disc of bread immersed in broth. Once it cooled down, I dove in. Bull and Bush has some competition in East Denver now for this. Rosti potatoes were a little greasy, but the accompanying Gruyere makes this delicious. My son's eclair came with a dark chocolate stripe and whipped cream filling. Yum. Overall, I like the food, drinks, and space. Prices? Not so much, but inflation is king everywhere. Four stars. read more

Great brunch at a great bakery. The very definition of comfort food. The Rosti is very crispy and came out fresh and hot. The Gruyère béchamel was fantastic. Brunch burger had an almost perfect smash patty on a croissant bun. With an egg on top and green chili hollandaise tying a bow on the decadence. Worth a try if you're looking for a fun brunch. They get very busy in waves and it's a small place so be prepared to wait and subtle pressure to clear out after you're done eating. read more

A great French bakery, for me the best one in Denver. They have plenty of parking and lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and their transition is complete from their former location. It's comfy, still family friendly, and good sizing. Emily was our server today, and we loved her, never would have known that it was her first day! Grateful for her patience and demeanor. I loved my BLT with added guacamole. Great sandwich, held together, and perfectly prepared. Ordered a baguette just because and was glad that I did. read more

The little girl bakery moved to a sit down location near Colfax mayflower plaza. 6217 E 14th Ave, Denver, CO 80220 The new location have tables inside and out and I love the BYO sandwich options.

It's so good it should be illegal. I entered with the notion of buying a couple of pastries and be out. That's not what happened. I was infused into the atmosphere as soon as I walked in and was greeted. I chose to sit at the counter-height bar where Peter was stationed. I went with a build your own sandwich- cibatta, over med eggs, bacon jam, and spinach. It was bomb. I enjoyed an espresso that had blueberry notes and looked at their happy hour menu. Everyone was friendly. The place was sparkling clean, and the layout really worked. As you walk in, there is an open area on your left where the magic aka baking happens. The kitchen is towards the back. There's a pastry case dividing the area, which displays some of the fresh options for you to enjoy. The floor opens to the right with seating. There's plenty of room inside and outdoor seating as well. I brought home an almond croissant. It was amazing. I didn't grab a photo, but it was really good size and had plentiful almond cream inside. I can't wait to take myself to breakfast again. read more

Came for breakfast and was delighted. We had Cash as our waiter and he was super friendly and on top of it. We started with mocha and cappuccino and both were amazing. Next I got the Veggie omelette which I really loved. The only downside my guest got the quiche Lorraine and I don't know if she got an odd cut but was missing the Lorraine it was just egg. Left with a box of pastries to eat later. Will definitely be back read more

Been in several times and everything has been amazing! But the cuban needs to be highlighted. Best one I have ever had!! The focaccia!!! Perfect. Due note that this is a massive sammie.

Next time I will preorder. Keep up the good work La Fillette read more

This was our second visit, and I can officially say this is the best brunch in Denver. It is a hidden gem in the Mayfair area of Colfax, in a strip mall. Do not be deceived by this. Inside its super city and cozy, all of the staff are incredibly kind and helpful. But the food. O.M.G. We've had the breakfast sandwich that is out of this world, some pastries (they make home made pop tarts, muffins and muffin croissants) among many other things. Brunch today was literally perfect. The BLAT was buttery, soft and I don't know what they do to that bacon but with the garlic aioli, I didn't want it to end. The rosti was crispy and creamy cheese perfection . Husband loved The Benny, looked amazing, served on a croissant. This place is a real treat and welcome to the neighborhood! read more

The food was excellent. The service was less than enjoyable. Service makes a big difference in a good to not so great experience. We sat at the bar and both bartenders were cold and just blah. Very transactional and blah. Both seemed annoyed to be there. Anything we said was met with a stone face. If we ever come back would be for take out. read more

This place used to be my go-to for pastries when located on 8th Street however I have to say, I am not a fan of the new location. We love a weekend morning pastry take-out that we bring home and savor over coffee and the newspaper. The new location is designed to maximize seating, with little attention paid to take-out. To order take-out now you must go to the bar and order and they bring out you order. The downsides are when the bar is busy, squeezing in between other patrons to get the attention of the bartender is reminiscent of a bad club. Also, there is no place to wait while the order is being prepared. An alternative is to just order in advance online and do a pick-up but I love to look at the selection and make my choice of the day. Great products but the ambiance makes for an uncomfortable experience. read more
