Food made me remember living in Paris. Cloudy outside and listening to three different languages while dining/relaxing. Also remembering how the service was less than fast in Paris even with only one server. Loved the onion soup! Caesar salad was fresh! Loved the café mocha. read more

The ingredients in everything is so fresh! I love how you can seat yourself and they work fast to serve you quickly, it's also such a nice place to eat at overall, feels like you've been transported to France. read more

la Madeleine - Caprese sandwich , Petite Caesar Salade, Chai latte, refresher - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

A nice little French cafe! You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. We were served relatively quick. We ordered the tomato basil soup, chicken friand, chicken caesar sandwich, and strawberry romanoff. Overall, the food was good, and the atmosphere was quaint! It's a nice spot for a quick lunch. read more

There is always great service here. Many of the employees as well as the Managers have been with the company for many years. The space has a nice patio and great WiFi that is very easy, and not arduous to access every time I come. The Tomato Cream Soup is amazing and the sandwiches on Fresh bread with the field green salad is a winner. I'm here monthly. read more

The service was impeccable. It was a quick transaction until it came to canceling my order -- considering I had been waiting for 40 minutes for a sandwich. I got my cold brew, and my wife got her cucumber drink and salad (they did not give me mine) much, much sooner than we got our meals. She had a half sandwich. By the time she had completely finished her food they finally brought out my Croque Monsieur. I was frustrated due to the amount of kids screaming in the back area, and could barely hear the music. The table was also sticky. I wanted to cancel my order and simply leave. They told me my meal was in the oven and it wasn't until 10 more minutes that they finally gave it to me, in a to-go bag, as consequentially requested. tldr: ONLY come here during the WEEK DAYS. Do NOT come here during the weekend or else you will be wasting a portion of your waking day. read more

good value for price. I tried the Tomato Basil Soup, which was rich and comforting, and the Potato Galette, a crispy, cheesy French-style potato cake that was definitely my favorite. i like the cozy cottage vibe inside too. will comeback and try diff soup read more

I went with my family for the first time today on Mother's Day and we thought it was decent at best. My dad had ordered a croissant sandwich with an order of classic waffle and fruits on the side and the food was cold and he also ordered a tea in which they didn't even use your typical hot water for it. My mom had ordered a classic waffle with a quiche and again the food was cold. I ordered myself a French toast with berries with a side of bacon and a chai latte and here's the catch I've ordered the French country breakfast with a drink and his food was only thing that was warm. The service was ok. Overall, I would come again because the only complaint was for the food to be nice and hot once it's made but the food overall was good not great. read more

Today my friend and I had brunch/lunch here and it was delicious! I usually get the same thing every time I come. I got the Cafe Sampler! The pasta salad is delicious. I also got a Quiche Loraine! The service today was also really great and everyone was very friendly and ready to help! I love coming to La Madeleine for good quality, quick service eats! read more

I woke up early and wanted to run some errands. However, nothing was open except this place. Boy, was I glad I gave it a try. Do you like French everything? This hidden gem is the place for you! When you walk up to the front door, french music starts to play. You walk in, the ambiance, the friendly staff, and the beautiful display of the bakery selection. It's like you're walking into an actual bakery store. I ordered the Florentine Quiche, a cup of cream of mushroom, a chai latte, and yogurt parfait. I will definitely walk out with some bakery later and bring my family here next time. What an awesome restaurant and experience I've had in a while. read more

Wow this place brings back memories. I remember eating here over 10 years ago (maybe not the same location) and I'm so happy to see it's still around. It was extremely busy when I came in on a weekday for lunch. The staff were so nice and friendly! Service was great and it seemed like they really enjoyed working there. I ordered the tomato soup (their signature!) and a half turkey cheese sandwich. It's the perfect combo. The soup is classic and tastes so fresh. The sandwich was piping hot and very filling. I love the decor and layout. There's lots of tables so it's a good place to come study or work while grabbing a taste of France. read more

Bonjour à tous ! First of all let me say that from the exterior of the building awaits something inside that is not expected. As you enter the cafe you are quickly surrounded by warm and cozy ambiance that just feels like you have stepped into a French cafe with a homemade feel. If you are looking to spend time with family or friends this should be on your radar. I reserved a private room which I have to say was an easy process. I reserve the space for 15 people and upon arrival I was greeted by the supervisor named Shallet who escorted me to the reserve space. The room design mimics something you would see from ancient times which was fitting for a small party or group to enjoy. It was quaint and quiet and allowed for privacy. The staff assisted my party with the most pleasant attitude and continued to check on us throughout our entire time there. Warm pastries were served along with hot French coffee and an assortment of teas. I would highly recommend this place for small gatherings or even a family brunch outing. Everything was freshly prepared and the staff was warm and friendly. read more

I know I lived in Atlanta for 10 years. And I never visited this franchise restaurant. I always try to eat at small independent French bakeries! But driving around endlessly looking for a French only Bakery Google Map ended me here. And in my 10 years of living in Atlanta I never visited Duluth or John's Creek area. Hence this was the fourth French restaurant I stopped at to make sure that this wasn't a bubble tea spot. But a croissant and quiche spot! So just FYI be careful of that if you're in that Duluth and John's Creek area. They may sound French and then there is one called Paris baguette! They're bubble tea and sweet bun spots. Not the colonizer French bakery spots! So yes my desperation to have authentic French pastries and breakfast first thing in the morning brought me to this franchise place I would have never frequented. However it was actually nice. It would have gotten five stars but it did what so many restaurants are doing right now. Not turning on heat! The people who sit on the outskirts were in their coats and hats while eating. Otherwise people clamor towards the middle of the restaurant near the fire pit. And while waiting on all my pastries to be bagged I stood over there by the fire pit as well. Y'all have got to stop being cheap with the heat! So this franchised food... surprise surprise surprise! That coconut cake made me think of being in the Deep South on Sundays after somebody's Big Mama's funeral. Oh yes that cake was rich and delicious! Had more of a cream or maybe even custard type versus coconut milk or cream of coconut milk. Either way it was worth waiting for them to cut me a slice! And the pastries were delicious. They didn't taste as manufactured as I expected them to. Now what really surprised me with this restaurant, was that everybody who worked there spoke french! And it appeared as though it was all of the ethnic groups that France had colonized! But they were all speaking their french! Even helped two Muslim Vietnamese ladies with the door. I was so tickled listening to them speak French to a staff member there! I was like okay I get it I get it I get it! This is where all of the ethnic groups that have been colonized by the French come and gather! That was the cutest thing I saw at this restaurant. So many of the people who ate there and all of the people who work there spoke french! read more

la Madeleine - Half of a ham and swiss quiche. That crust was so flaky and buttery! Delicious! - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

The food was great, especially the French toast and the bacon. The service was poor. We waited 20 minutes to get self serve coffee since it was out. They leave dirty tables for too long and no place to sit. read more

It has been a long time since I ate here. From the outside it looked quiet and I wasn't sure how they faired with Covid. But I opened the door and the place was busy with customers. They are still short staffed but I enjoyed my food. Just a hint, order the cafe sampler which is half quiche, small salads, cup of soup. You'll get your food on the spot because the cashier is the one who pulls this plate together. I had the cream of mushroom soup, Caesar salad, flirting quiche. They now pour the dressing on top instead of tossing together, and the free jam is in a dispenser not in little containers any more. These are just a few short cuts they've created to try and keep up with demand. The staff is working so hard with their resources and I just hope they can make it through this pandemic. read more

la Madeleine - Cafe Sampler - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Always a pleasure eating here! I frequent the Perimeter location more due to work but this location is closer to home. I ordered the usual Chicken Cesar salad w/tomatoe basil soup. Made to order! It was not as busy possibly due to Covid but there were a steady flow of customers. I opted to dine in . Found a quiet cozy spot near the patio exit. During the Fall/Winter months the fire place is lit. Enjoyed the food and ambiance. Friendly staff as well. The only thing that I was disappointed in is they were out of the sliced bread to go along with the delicious berry spread. There was 1 slice not enough for a baby to eat . The mgr said they were all out at the time but more was in the oven. I couldn't wait another hour so maybe next time. read more

My first time here did not disappoint! Upon walking in, you'll get in line and see all the items of food before ordering at the register. You will see an active fireplace in the middle of their restaurant with plenty of seating throughout, and alongside the windows. The tables, decor and smell of coffee is authentic to their story/history. It felt like I was in a French cottage house somewhere in the countryside of France somewhere ordering food I loved it. I ordered a country French breakfast with a cappuccino to accompany it. Served hot, and really tasty. The potato cake was surprisingly one of my favorite items. The texture was ideal: crispy but not crunchy and flavorful!!! I will definitely be back with my laptop one day bc of the ambiance and coffee it's the perfect combo. read more

Food is always amazing. Pastry are also very delicious. Restaurant its self is very clean. Love the vibe

I love this place. The food is always fresh and tasty. You can't never go wrong with the croissants, and pastries; they're DELICIOUS! They came up with a new salad; Quinoa Tuna Niçoise. If you read the description sounds delicious, but when you taste it, it blows your mind. If you like salads, you definitely need to give it a try. The coffee is very good too, and my favorite dessert hands down is the Sacher Torte! read more

Decided to meet up with a friend for a quick brunch and came across La Madeleine. Usually I would pass by the restaurant all the time because it's off in the cut, but after a quick Google search, I realized where it was and decided to get it a try. First off, once you walk in, the restaurant is super spacious, with plenty of room to social distance if you like. They provide outdoor/indoor seating, and even have a small room in the back for private events (on the day I went, someone was having a small birthday brunch). The set up is kind of cafeteria style, so you have to look over the menu and decide what you want before you get in line to order. They will bring the food to your table, but as you go down the line, they have fresh items that aren't on the menu, all of which looked delicious! So you'll have plenty of items to choose from. I decided to play it safe and go with a breakfast croissant sandwich and my friend got Country French Breakfast. The food was amazing! Super fresh, hot, and delicious! My croissant was so buttery and flaky that it paired perfectly with my eggs and sausage. The portion size seemed a bit small at first glance, but after I finished i was perfectly full. It was just enough so that I wasn't hungry anymore but also not too much that I was blotted. Overall the food and the atmosphere was pretty good and chill. Would definitely come back another time! Oh and P.S. you can alway learn French from some of the art and music that's playing in the bathroom. If you're into that kinda thing lol read more

Boy oh boy, where are the good ole days of consistency. First time eating here in this state and wow I'm shocked at the service and organization here. Zero greeting at the door, no one present or sign to guide the flow. Then someone finally shows up and zero hello or welcome.... Ordered coffee and a quiche. The only sugar available was the carcinogenic one and was placed inside a disposable paper cup..... It felt like 0 degrees in there so you'll need to inhale your food within 30 seconds before it also freezes. The employees were extremely unorganized and un professional. Very disappointing. read more

So, not too crap on my previous review, but nothing beat officially paying La Madeleine a visit. I must say that not only is the food obviously warmer versus take-out, but do you see how much brighter and vibrant the order on my plate is? Morning rain oddly soothing the cold front of the day, and sitting adjacent to the ambiant fireplace bundled up hoping to compliment the picturesque scene. And how sweet to be serviced before and after my meal-I had to gift a hefty tip. read more

Lovely little french bakery and brunch place. The food is delicious my favorite being the croque madame and service is fast. Look at the menu and order at the end of the line by the cashier. They'll give you a number for your table and bring your food there. The bakery is separate and before the main line. Everything there is delicious! read more

I think 12:00 is a rather busy hour for them, I did not like the crowd nor appreciate the slow service; missing utensils and in supervised social distancing! The food was a five star though! My son enjoyed the Turkeys bistro and I, the Croque monsieur. My cafe latte was down right cold. So I did not finish it. My son's Raspberry lemonade was a winner. read more

It's our first time to eat at this restaurant and we're so pleased with the food, the ambiance and the customer service of the friendly staff. I want to commend Forda, one of the staffs there, who treated us with excellent service. She gave us a free baguette since it's our first time and assisted us with all our needs. I left my pouch and she kept it, gave it to us with all smiles when we went back to the resto. Overall, we had a great time and I will definitely recommend the place! :) read more

This is a great spot located conveniently in Pleasant Hill. You can easily grab and go or dine in around a quaint fireplace with cozy cottage vibes. The service was quick and friendly. I was pleased with everything we ordered - from the freshly made Quiche Florentine to the creamy tomato basil soup to the Grilled cheese that was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. My latte was very satisfying as well - not too sweet but not too bitter. I would definitely come back here! read more

Excellent service such lovely people working at La Madeleine together. I took great pictures and I don't know what happened to them. Regardless the food was outstanding. My sister and I got Quiche Loraine's and they were so delicious. We topped them off with Strawberrys Romanoff. It was to die for. The strawberries were so sweet by themselves. But put on the sauce and it was exquisite. I have tried many different items here so please come in , you won't be disappointed. My awesome husband ordered the French dip, and a petite Caesar salad. He really enjoyed it. All three of us were really happy with everything that we ordered. The staff was just amazing too. read more

For what it is, the prices are a tad much imo. I've been here loads of time, but I guess it's mostly visiting their bakery. And this 1st time experience with their restaurant food in awhile wasn't what I imagined. For instance, yesterday's BOGO (2/13/19) reward was just terrible for the staff and customers: the app malfunctioned, the phone lines had a wait time of over 5 minutes, and the wait time in the store was ridiculous. I estimate my time from stepping into the store to getting my food to be about 45 minutes to an hour. The gal before me said it was well over one hour for her. A lady who dined in didn't even get her food when the rest of her group had already finished eating, and she just wanted a refund. One word: disaster. The food wasn't even superb, average at most. The chicken crepe riviera was pretty decent. At the full price of $12.29, I'd think again about ordering it. Though it was good with minimal flavors, the slivers of chicken and broccoli pieces seemed like it was gone in minutes with the crepe being so thin. If you want something light (and somewhat less filling), this is the way to go. The seasonal beef and parmesan potatoes were a super disappointment bc they were the reason I wanted to visit. At their full price of $12.99, the portion size was okay, but the dish I received didn't look like what was advertised. It looked like a bunch of beef was thrown atop boring mashed potatoes. The only other thing it had going for it was the semi tenderness of the beef. read more

This location has gone downhill. The staff are slow. I waited an hour OVER my estimated "ready time" to get my food. I also had to point out what I'm missing when I got my food after the long wait. They also run out of items and they don't even notify you. 3 out of the 4 items I ordered were out. It's a reoccurring theme every time I visit so it's not a one time thing. I used to go often, but I stopped and really only go if I have a craving. read more

The restaurant seemed well enough from the outside, but the inside was just so chaotic and cold (temp) that it was hard to enjoy my food. Additionally, the food was in such small proportions and average tasting that normally it wouldn't be bad, but given the price point it was very overpriced in my opinion. Overall, I'd describe the place is a worse Panera with similar pricing. So not a bad restaurant, just not worth it. read more

Let me tell you something about this establishment. They have the most incredible customer service ever! My sweetheart and I patronized them today. We love la Madeleine. Their baked goods are so delicious. But I'd never stopped at this particular location. Everything in the display looked amazing and they were baking as we were ordering so the products are fresh. After debating what to get, I settled for a pumpkin streusel muffin, 3 lemon madeleines, an oatmeal raisin pecan cookie, and a creme brûlée- not planning to eat it all in one day, don't judge. My sweetheart got 2 apple tarts, all to go. We could tell they were busy, probably short staffed, but we didn't mind waiting for our goodies. The order was handed to us in a paper bag, and we headed home. I arrived and put everything away in the refrigerator, and it took me a second to realize that the crème brûlée was missing. How disappointed I was! How upset! I live about 30 minutes from the store so I was not about to drive back. I called them, hoping to get a gift certificate for next time, or something like that. This wonderful manager offered to DELIVER it to my home. 1 hour later, I get a delivery of my delicious crème brûlée, and some gift certificates. They made my day! They went above and beyond, and I am impressed. This level of customer service is solely missed in the modern society, period. I don't know what to say except thank you for going above and beyond. You have two very satisfied, faithful customers for life. Oh, I enjoyed one of the delicious, buttery lemon madeleines and my creamy, sweet, delightful crème brûlée- just as I remember it. Incredible. read more

I can't believe I spent 50 bucks to eat here. I haven't been here in around 10 years and unfortunately it is not what it used to be. It used to be well kept but now it's just run down and not maintained. Everything just feels sticky. When we got here someone greeted us and then disappeared into the back. Two more parties walked in the door and no one came out. Finally an employee who was actually on break came to help us. I felt so bad that she had to do that and made sure she knew that she was appreciated. But the issues kept rolling... My son got the salmon with broccoli and beans. Everything was cold! I got the baked potato soup. This was like warm but the bacon was ice cold! My other son got the chicken and his was luke warm at best. In closing...if not for the one employee who helped us, this would have been a 1 star rating. read more
