Every time I go here, it is a great experience. Brunch is always amazing. I love their omelette and fries. Service is fast and the employees are very friendly and accommodating. I've been for dinner twice and it was exceptional both times. The chicken, the beef bourgeon, and all of the sides and appetizers are absolutely memorable. It's easily a favorite in the neighborhood for me read more

I stopped by Le Moulin for lunch and had the most perfect Niçoise salad. All of the ingredients were high quality and the French dressing was on point. The service was quick and we sat in the back room which was spacious and nice. I will definitely come by to try more of the French cuisine here next time I'm on the upper east side. read more

We love Le Moulin and have only had delicious dinners here. We recently came with friends, sat outside snd had a fabulous dinner. Two of our guests had the house special: Trout Amandine, I had the Poilet Roti (which might have been one of the most delicious chickens, I've ever eaten) and another guest had the Vol Au Vent. We shared Creme Brûlée and their Trio Chocolate Dinner which was an absolutely outstanding cake that's hard to describe but definitely worth ordering! One of the unique aspects of the restaurant is that they also sell a great selection of French cookies and other packaged goods in addition to other desserts and chocolates. I read sone of the other reviews and definitely want to return to try their breakfasts and lunches! read more

Ordered food tonight. Woman snarked at me for sitting outside to eat it, it was 830p. Really rude, felt totally unwelcome. Food was ok. Not worth this, though. Truly awful, never returning. read more

Fantastic food and service. The staff goes above and beyond to make it a memorable experience. Wonderful patisserie also. Highly recommend

We love it here for the cozy and european styled back eating area. It is a great place for a light and fast brunch. The staff are attentetive and bring everything quickly! The food may not stand out from numerous other brunch places, but its always solid. read more

Staff prohibited me from opening my laptop. Mind you I was ordering a full meal and a drink. Also their outside was empty at 12:30 midday. Too many options in the area for this type of service. Sorry to see a local place go bad like this. read more

Generally good food, though the dinner menu is quite expensive. Mustard mussels were delicious.

Le Moulin now has dinner!!! What an amazing addition to the UES! We have been to Paris several times and the food here is.....close. We have come to Le Moulin for coffee and lunch on multiple occasions. This was the first time (but not the last time) we had dinner. The food was great. We had: - The Charcuterie Board - meats with cheese, very good - Beef Bourguignon - delicious - Roasted Chicken - terrific - Creme Brûlée- delicious - Kir Royale - great Overall a great meal! read more

Ok food, nothing special. Pathetic not to respect the law and show prices properly, cash vs credit card. Just skip the b.s. and raise everything by $.10 to cover your costs properly. read more

A true neighborhood gem-- I love this place so much! The food is always delicious-- everything on their brunch menu is tasty and plentiful. I love their eggs Benedict and French Toast. The decor is super cute-- the design of the space is beautiful and cheerful and French. Service is always helpful and fast. It's quiet enough to come with family but feels lively and fun at the same time. read more

Le Moulin a Cafe attempted to charge me $22 for the egg and croissant today, Sunday (as it is now only comes with a salad and is marked up for weekend brunch). When I noted I was a regular and as a single wasn't planning to take up a table, just wanted the egg croissant to go, I was refused, with the note that the normal price ends at 9:30 on the weekends. To note it was 9:45 and the place was not yet that busy... So they lost my respect - and money to Julien Boulangerie a few doors down. Lovely guy there sold me an equally delicious (though premade) sandwich for $9. Moulin - please consider permitting a pickup price for weekends. I'd think that'd be a win-win, versus turning down customers, especially ones who have been patronizing your business for literal years. read more

Le Moulin Cafe was an accidental find one morning during my walk. I saw the outside seating and peeking inside I decided it looked like a good place for a light meal. I was definitely correct. I had to control myself at the front counter. There's a lot of pastries in the showcase. This place is not only a cafe but a store plus they will prepare gifts for your special occasions. I saw a customer using his laptop and one lady reading a book. There were two ladies chatting over coffee by the fireplace in the rear. It's a cafe where you can relax. The employee at the front counter was so nice and smiling. I looked over the whole place and took lots of photos of the cute decor. It's spacious and comfortable whether you're alone or with a friend. They open early for breakfast. I took photos of a couple of the menus. It took two visits for me to take in the whole scene. My photos are worth a thousand words. For me it's a nice spot for coffee and croissant. Check it out if you're in the neighborhood. read more

An extremely disappointing services experience. Brought my laptop, asked for permission if it would be ok to use it while I enjoyed a cappuccino and chocolate croissant while sitting in 50 degree and empty outdoor tables at 11am. At 1130, a man came out and didn't even bother asking if I would like anything else and said I would have to leave as laptops not allowed. No acknowledgement or thanks for the business I gave, and no extended offer if I would like to actually spend more (I would have...). There's a lot of good cafe options in the neighborhood. I recommend going somewhere that appreciates the money you choose to spend with them. read more

I visited New York City recently with a friend, and we met up with one of her friends who lives on the Upper East Side for coffee. She suggested we meet at Le Moulin. It is a really cute, little café. They have plenty of seating inside, as well as a few little tables outside. We sat outside and enjoyed our coffee and snack. They have a case full of yummy looking pastries and treats! I tried the Macarons which were delicious. They also have a full breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu. We did not try any of those items, but I wish we could have! They also have a fun selection of French grocery items for purchase. read more

Like most of our neighbors on Second Avenue, we have, for the past decade, gone up Second, or Third or Lex, when looking for a nice restaurant for dinner. Honestly, never thought about going up First, let alone, York Can't explain what was different tonight, but we headed over to York. Thankfully. Found Le Moulin, and can't fully express how thankful we are. This place is A-1 all the way. My wife had the special grouper, and I had the duck breast. Both fabulous. Truly, beyond fabulous. We'll be back, and wholeheartedly recommend Le Moulin for anyone looking for a great dinner at a really reasonable price. read more

Food was superb. Staff attentive and price point fine. Lots of choices. I definitely will return when I'm in the neighborhood

I would call the food well executed and decent tasting but not exceptional. They do have a good selection of desserts on the cafe side. I used to come here at least once a week but have moved out of the neighborhood. Service was pretty good. read more

Always Wonderful! Love the food - regardless if you are picking up a quick coffee and croissant or staying for amazing eggs Benedict or short braised ribs - you will not be disappointed- all are wonderful! And the service is great- especially Amy! Don't miss going here! read more

I have been living in the neighborhood for years and never tried this place before today. It was a gem of a find. The pastries were great, the coffees, the hospitality, the atmosphere, the music, everything was just perfect. This is a wonderful place to meet a friend, go on a date, spend some alone time, or a family dinner. I definitely want to go back for Dinner. I was intrigued by the fun European Grocery Items, and warm and friendly customer service. read more

The apple turnover I received was literally applesauce with puff pastry... really? Yuck. Waste of $5

I will never ever go back to Le Moulin cafe on the upper east side. Neither will 30 of my friends who rely on my opinions. The person at the cashier who maybe a manager was rude and should learn customer service particularly tone. It started with a very simple request and a horrible experience after. I've been to Le Moulin many many times and it was terrific. Maybe new management -- it was the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. It's hard to believe this experience happened at a restaurant I had enjoyed. I haven't been there for the last year ... What a devastating change in attitude. Maybe they want to convey a "rude" French restaurant. In that respect --They've got it!! read more

My friend recommended this place for their pastries and it didn't disappoint! We got croissants, opera cake, and the coffee eclair. Both pastries were great, I preferred the eclair, and the croissant was starting to soften, but I guess that's my fault for coming here mid-afternoon when they've been sitting out. read more

Aside from the few french groceries and croissants there's nothing french about this place anymore. All the staff speaks spanish, they won't seat you unless your whole party is here (even if you have a leg brace they make you stand and wait while others get to sit at tables without asking) Even the hollandaise sauce isn't hollandaise. It's warmed up chipotle mayo!! Gross read more

The breakfast menu is somewhat limited, but if you are familiar with French breakfasts, you will be very satisfied. I've had lunch here, but this was my first breakfast. The Parisian Breakfast for Two was $25. Bread, chocolate, jam, butter, plus coffee. What else does one need in the morning? Always a lively mix of customers. Everyone speaks softly, though, and it's more tranquil than some coffee shops. One day I'll finally make it there for dinner. read more

vibrant brunch spot came here with some peeps for brunch. came here sat morning without a res, seated right away. tables are small but had a very vibrant cozy vide. they have a decent number of offerings. I went for the 3 topping omelet w ham spinach and mushrooms. it was cooked well and served with salad and fries. it was a generous portion. they did seem eager to rush us out which is my main critique. the prices are little higher as with most things in the UES but nothing too crazy read more

Went on a Saturday morning for coffees and pastries. Service was quick and ambiance was cute. I thought the ratio of espresso to milk was off and the croissant was underwhelming. It was oily and flat for my taste. Overall a cute spot but others in the area I would choose to return to over this place. read more

Moulin is a wonderful neighborhood gem. The dining room is pleasant, but when it is warm out, they have outdoor seating. Food is outstanding and is a great value for the money. For morning breakfast, they offer excellent croissants and other pastries with a full array of coffee and espresso. The lunch and dinner menus are diverse, but with lots of French classics - onion soup, crepes, salad niçoise. Their fries are among the best in the city; ditto their hamburger. Dinner is delicious, and there is a good, but limited wine list. My wife thinks their salmon is about as good as it gets. I like their steak. Service is always friendly and helpful. One negative is that they don 't take reservations, even for large groups. read more

This place is basically like a French embassy on the Upper East Side. Food - French. People - French. Language - French. Currency accepted - Euros. Of course they also speak English and take US dollars, but basically you may as well be in Paris or maybe Nice... In the summer the tables outside are covered in coffees and pastries. In the winter they have a fire place going in the back of the restaurant section. So if you're craving a little taste of that old Republique but don't want an 8 hour flight, just come here. read more

My favorite place to come to in the morning and get a hot latte and a freshly baked croissant. Although the breakfast is amazing, all of their food is homemade and delicious! read more

June 6 update: I've been out of town for a few weeks and missing this place. Have it another shot today. My usual breakfast order (croissant du moulin) and a special treat (chocolate croissant) for later. The croissant du moulin had plastic in it. Thankfully it was in my last bite. The chocolate croissant had a 3" string in it. Also, conveniently, in my last bite. But still pretty disappointing. read more
