Open right at seven on weekdays , they make excellent breakfast, that's the main sell for me . The lunch is ok, you can see their weekly menu on their website. The soups are made there and tend to be good. At least it's not out of a bag like at Panera. It's ice to have in the building when to busy , lazy , or cold outside to leave. And it's super fast. The cater around the building, excellent muffins.

It was perfect for our 15 mo. There was plenty of seating and tables for parents, plus a designated area for parties, which is a nice touch. They also have a solid menu with coffee, smoothies, sandwiches, and options for kids. I only tried the coffee which was good, and the food looked great from what I saw. They do require kids to wear grippy socks. We didn't come prepared, but they had them available for just $1.99. I did notice a few kids without them, so it doesn't seem heavily enforced. Also, parents will need to remove their shoes. One of the best parts was that there's no time limit on play, and they allow in-and-out access, which makes it really easy if you're juggling errands or a toddler's schedule. Overall, such a great find and definitely a spot we'll be coming back to.

Once getting inside, we put our belongings in a few cubbies (Chicago winter bulk), and checked in. I signed a waiver for my daughter on an iPad that I returned to the cafe counter -- no separate registration area. You can pretty much see the entire space when you walk in. There are three themed play scenes (firehouse with brick-looking blocks inside, a medical area, and a farmers market corner. Additionally, there are two indoor climbing gyms, a ball pit connected to a large play vehicle via slide, and a more protected area for kids under 36 months that was more cushioned. A party room to the left when you enter. Our kiddos loved the many play vehicles that were scattered throughout the space. There's also a large inflated inner tube with handrails for kids to safely jump. We also had a lot of fun with the red vehicles that can set up at the top of two gentle ramps. My toddler requested to go down the ramp several times; "more more!". This play space was definitely had more cafe seating than I expected, with 4 couches in a row even facing the play area with coffee tables out in front. The avocado sandwich my sister and I split was delicious. Nicely toasted, packed with fresh ingredients and a tasty alioli with a hint of spice. It tasted like it was made from scratch and with love. One of the better sandwiches I've ever had at a cafe! Staff were friendly and attentive too. All in all, the set up is great for parents and toddlers. I wish there was a station for dirty toys that have been chewed on/put in ones mouth but I can see that the primary age group for this playcafe is 3+. We had a great time and I would consider coming back again, especially as our little ones can play more and more independently.

For our familiy: Sandwich Magically Ate (eaten)! Rare! Tremendous! (OK, that was really bad but the food here is really good!). They have a Pick 3 Children's Meal option for $5, including drink. My little guy had a whole grilled cheese and finished it. Like finished a w-h-o-l-e honest-to-goodness sandwich in one setting on a lunch break in a fun, stimulating children's museum. As a parent of a 2 year old, this is miraculous. If you are a parent of a toddler, it's like hearing trumpets and hallelulahs. It's like finding out that you are in the audience of Oprah's Favorite Things when you are in the daily routine of getting stuck in the Oprah audience with the sad music playing for a downer episode on euthanasia or a special remote-guest-from-prison kind of crap. Are you with me? This was beyond a hit and completely unexpected! If he could talk, I believe he would say that it was his favorite lunch ever. Since he doesn't talk, we will let his actions of finishing a whole grilled cheese, a pouch of organic fruit snacks (50 cent upcharge), and an organic juice pouch speak for him. The museum did a great job with the menu for kids and adults, even solid veggie options. The adult sandwiches were tasty too and we finished them (no surprise there). Boar's Head turkey and cheese with Terra chips for 6.50. Yummy peach iced tea.

Naperville location…read more Bottom Line: The food hall version of this concept is not the same experience as the stand alone location, though the food quality is consistent. I sought out this location since I definitely liked the Glenn Ellyn, stand alone location (See my review for that location). I did not realize it until I got there but this location is located in a food hall, a part of the H-Mart Asian grocery chain's delivery concept. The scaled down, food hall version, in line with, and surrounded by the sights, sounds, and aromas of a great but distracting variety of Asian food offerings, distracts and dilutes the impact of the distinctly different "Paris Baguette" concept (One of these things is not like the others). I will say that the food was good and I would say consistent with the stand-alone location; however, the highly eclectic mix of eateries, in an open food hall, obliterates the more authentic visual and environmental feel of a modern Parisian pâtisserie experience that is delivered by the stand alone store. In recently reviewing Paris Baguette's direct competitor and similar concept, basically across the street from this location, I opined that I would choose Paris Baguette if pressed to make a choice between the two; however, not In this particular instance/location. I get wanting to proliferate the name and concept in the market but, in my opinion, the food-hall version dilutes and detracts from the nice experience of the stand-alone store. If a stand-alone opens here or near, I would come back.

It was midday and I was feeling a little hungry too so I was glad to see that the pastry cases weren't completely wiped out and a couple of ham and cheese croissants looking just too good to pass up. Staff were all really nice and on top of everything. This is more of a grab and go location but you can definitely sit down and enjoy your drink or a meal at the shared food court seating if it's not too busy. The latte was a little too on the sweet side for me but the flavor was good. I would say the croissant was the highlight of this visit though. Perfectly crispy and flaky with a good amount of filling too.

I am guessing they do this to batch prep the bubbles, and any leftover are stored in the fridge. The tea is definitely not worth trying. The bakery looks nice, but I haven't got a chance to try.
