An authentic French bakery that was definitely needed in Redlands and IE. Yes there is Two Ladds, which I also frequent, but they lack inventory. Although their pastries are also very good, their cake slices are something left to be desired. If you want the true French experience Maison La Jolie is your place. It is really easy to miss this quaint stall at RPM as they are in the front far left corner ( former donut stall) . Upon entering you will find full cases of French pastries,baguettes,cakes and cheesecakes. My favorites so far are: - mango shortcake - pistachio tiramisu -regular tiramisu - chocolate almond croissant ( although I wish they gave the option to warm it up) - pistachio Ball ( pistachio crème filled , shortbread crust with topped off with a ton of pistachios - tropizenne All their baked goods are fresh and not overly sweet. As others will complain about the pricing, the croissants are priced on par with other bakeries that use quality ingredients such as "French butter". You can definitely taste the quality vs others like Sweet Tooth 909. So if you are in the mood to treat yourself or if you want to reminisce about your last trip to France , I would highly recommend Maison La Jolie. read more

Talk about a hidden secret! Been to the Redlands Market over a dozen times and I had no idea this GEM was hiding on the outer perimeter in a corner. What an exceptional addition to Redlands! I haven't had an authentic baguette with brie and ham in five decades. I'm certain a Parisian would say this wasn't 100% authentic but for America is plenty close enough. It was so big I had half for lunch and half for dinner, no regrets. My partner in crime had a hot three cheese panini sandwich as delicious and did the same lunch and dinner tango. We then split a generous portion of some sort of custard cake that was divine -- and don't be surprised when I tell you we had it for lunch and dinner. Everything was fresh. Not inexpensive but that was because there were no corners cut. We will return and try other offerings but what a GRAND first impression. UPDATE -- We indeed returned a week later. I switched to the prosciutto, brie, and fig jam baguette (nice!) and my partner in crime ordered a chocolate almond croissant. I'm not into that kind of treat but it was rather good. My partner has dreamed of an Urth Cafe gracing Redlands, but I must say MAISON DU JOLIE is like half an Urth arriving. This place deserves a full location on State Street YESTERDAY. read more

So pretty and delicious too. Hazelnut, chocolate, more chocolate and yet more chocolate! Surprisingly not heavy or overly sweet. Portion size was plenty for two adults. Staff was helpful in describing the various options. read more

I was surprised by being gifted pastries from Maison! Wow! What a gift, everything was delicious and probably the closest thing to actually having a croissant from Paris France! The almond croissant was a highlight, I also warmed the regular croissant and had it with some French butter. I was over the moon happy with the flavor, crispiness & the airy buttery texture! I highly recommend the pastries here, you will not be disappointed read more

My brother is a chef-in-training with a focus on baking. When he visits us from Hawaii, he will frequent different patisseries, and was excited to learn of Maison La Jolie, Redlands' newest French bakery. We visited in a Saturday morning after the kid's swimming lesson. Maison La Jolie is a cute, corner bakery in the Redlands Public Market. After entering the glass doors, one is greeted with shelves filled with treats and pastries. My brother wanted to try the quiche, but they were sold out. He went with the almond croissant which is how he judges all French bakeries. The rest of us ordered the croque monsieur (Parisian ham, becamel sauce, melted gruyere swiss cheese on white bread), St. Tropez (prosciutto, brie cheese, mixed greens, onions, fig jam, olive oil, herbs de Provence, La Monaco (prosciutto, Swiss cheese, mixed greens, tomato, onion, herbs de Provence, and olive oil), French onion soup, tiramisu, mango pastry, and pear tart. My brother was greatly impressed with the almond croissant, honing in on the laminated dough and the frangipane--a rich, nutty, and smooth almond cream. This prompted him to talk with the owner and baker, and he shared that in baking, "you have to be a little bit crazy. I use French butter and extra ingredients!" All the pastries were expertly made and were indulgent. Both the hot and cold sandwiches highlighted the meats and cheeses striking a balance with the arugula greens. Even the kids enjoyed the greens. The French onion soup was the best we have ever tasted; a delightful bowl of rich onion beef broth, toasted baguette with melted gruyere cheese. Maison La Jolie is the mastermind of a husband-wife duo. They are a much welcome addition to Redlands. read more

I actually found this place by accident. I was planning to grab a coffee, but when I walked in I realized a new restaurant had taken over the space. I'm glad it did. The display case was full of fresh pastries and baked goods that looked incredible, but I was in the mood for something more filling, so I ordered the #12 Poulet Pesto. It was absolutely delicious. The bread was toasted perfectly, the chicken was tender, and the pesto and creamy sauce brought everything together. They also served it with a side of what I think was a garlic aioli, and it was so good I ended up dipping every bite into it. The two employees working were genuinely friendly and attentive. I believe one of them may have been the owner, and you could tell they really cared about the customer experience. The menu has a great variety of sandwiches, pastries, and other items, so there's plenty I still want to try. This was an unexpected find, and I'll definitely be coming back. read more

Started off with a normal butter croissant, and i'll say it's really great! Buttery flavor, soft on the inside, and flaky/crispy on the outside. The chocolate croissant was also great, with similar textures. The service was efficient and the prices were reasonable. This bakery is located inside the Redlands Public Market; an indoor food hall but the bakery is located on the outer edge in a quieter area. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Free parking available across the railroad tracks. read more

We couldn't help ourselves, but to continue our food adventure with more desserts at Redlands Public Market (RPM) on Memorial Weekend 2026. Maison La Jolie (MLJ) was our #7 stop succeeding after #1 Shrimp Corner, #2 Yugo Shokunin, #3 Beyond Biryani, #4 Hen & Heifer, #5 Take Ur Seat Lite, and #6 Tsoko Cafe. MLJ was only a couple weeks old at RPM per the nice gentleman (I'm assuming he's the pastry chef) behind the glass of beautifully display of French pastries. They also sell sandwiches and drinks. We took a quick glance at all the pastries before deciding. I saw the Parisian Vanilla Flan for $8 and my youngest daughter saw the Mille Feuille for $9. Yes, prices were on the higher end, but it's a whole lot cheaper than flying to France to buy the French pastries. They came to us in Redlands so why not treat ourselves. Young lady who took our order was pleasant and nice. Vanilla flan was a huge slice. Texture was a bit denser than expected. I didn't find it sweet at all really. What I love most about it was the flaky crust... it was super yummy! Mille Feuille in French means "thousand leaves". It came with layers of crisp golden flaky puff pastry and rich pastry cream in between them. It had the perfect sweetness. An excellent choice! My daughter gave it a thumbs up. She does have an eye for sweets. For the French pastry connoisseur, MLJ is meant for you. Drop on by and support this new biz. We'll stop by again during our next RPM visit. Tips: Free parking garage at 101 W Stuart Ave. Walk to the market within a few minutes. Cross with the train tracks with care. Shared dining setting is available at food hall. read more

Stopped by on a Sunday morning before 9am. I had the opposite experience of other reviewers. My croissant ($5!) was not flaky, buttery, and didn't have any distinguishable layers. It just tasted like BREAD. read more

Came on opening day and I was their first customer! The owners were so nice and you can tell we're very proud of the quality of their pastries. You can tell right away with their croissants that they use real French butter and flour. The texture is buttery and flaky. There pralines are such a treat! It has a great crunchy texture without sticking to your teeth. I can probably polish a bag by myself. I also sampled their French Madelines. The texture and sweetness is just right. Honestly there were so many other items in the case I want to try so I'll be back soon! read more

This establishment is run by two of the nicest people you will ever meet who were more than happy to give us suggestions which were delicious. I managed to snag the last of the croissants, a raspberry chocolate pastry and a pear tart. Do not sleep on the pear tart it is delicious and a great recommendation. This is an adorable café, located on the corner of the public market in Redlands where there are now quite a few wonderful eateries. Closest to Paris this side of California. I also love that this bakery is open after two, which most are not come early for the best selections. read more

This place is very misleading. Pastries were not fresh, one of the ones i got was spoiled. It literally tastes like they bought their pastries at Restaurant Depot and slapped a french sticker on them. Not at all authentic. So disappointing because Redlands needs a good french bakery!! read more

Maison La Jolie - Tastes mass produced, nothing fresh about these pastries... - Bakeries Near Me - Redlands, California

Amazing family owned Boulangerie . We've been visiting since day one, and never been disappointed. La Monaco is my favorite sandwich, but you can't go wrong with the Jambon Beurre or Poulet Pesto either. The Patisserie offerings have continued to grow with time, the latest treat was the Rocher. Perfect. Fresh baguette is available to accompany any dinner plans you may have , but most often we are draw to the pain au chocolat , tarts, tropiziene, and any other sweet treats. Service is fast. the ambiance is lively since it is located at the Redlands Public Market. If you're still reading this, you're late, they often sell out so get up and go now! read more

I came in looking for a cake for a celebration of life. Automatically the eyes go to the familiar cakes. This beauty pulled me. I had to try. Did not disappoint. The vanilla pastry cream, airy orange cake, & crunch at the bottom. Yum! I picked up a few other baking accessories. The chef there is very nice. The pan holders I got make you feel like cooking with wine. Everything is very well pulled together to show a fun, light, coffee. read more

First time here. Picked up the last two fruit tarts. Good fruits, not overly sweet. Wish the crust was crispy but it could be because I didn't get to eat it till the following day. I'm excited to try more items. read more

I love this bakery! The jambon au beurre immediately takes me back to Paris. The baguettes are fresh and have just the right amount of chew. The croissants and pain au chocolat are buttery and flakey. And every pastry I've tried is insanely delicious (special shout out to the beignets). Every time I come in, I want to try something new. Plus the service is kind and friendly. read more

Really impressed with the food and service here. We came in when they first opened and they had some challenges with their POS system, but that's to be expected with anything new. They've got it all dialed in and the food is fantastic. I'm looking forward to returning, trying more on the menu and sitting on the patio outside. Great addition to Redlands! read more

This bakery is amazingly good. The day before Mother's Day we went down for lunch at the Market Place & decided to see if this bakery was open yet! It was! The lady and gentleman running it were so nice and friendly. We decided to order a large box full of the individual desserts, like eclairs, Paris Brest, fruit tart, lemon meringue tart, a cute chocolate treat, Mille-feuille, & almond croissants. We shared them with our daughter in law, son and grandsons on Mother's day & everyone had RAVE reviews! Yes, a bit pricey but I'm a mom and Grandma and I deserved something special! They also added some mini macarons to our beautiful box of goodies! I will definitely be back to try a sandwich, quiche & more yummy pastries!! read more

Fabulously French...and in Redlands! Tucked away in the peaceful northwest corner of RPM, this is a gem you don't want to miss! Owner Oliver and his daughter were very friendly and nice. We enjoyed the savory food and the delightful sweets. The croque monsieur made my mouth happy, and MDH declared the poulet pesto "delicious!" The Paris brest transported us back to Biarritz. Also took a slice of Parisian flan and Baba au Rhum to go. Will definitely be back! read more

We came here for breakfast and had the Brie Sandwich, Croque Mosnsieur (massive and shareable) and the Hazelnut Supreme cake. All I can say is WOW!! I've been to Europe and several places in France and this took me back! It's actually better than half the places we ate at in country. If you like French flavor and pastries, come here! The service is also top notch, the owner is the sweetest man and loves serving his customers! read more

If I could give this bakery 10 stars, I would. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted with the warm aroma of fresh butter, flaky pastries, and freshly baked bread. The ambiance is charming, cozy, and effortlessly French pâtisserie. The service was exceptional. Everyone is genuinely welcoming and happy to make recommendations. But nothing beats the food... absolutely incredible! Every pastry we tried was perfect! As someone who's actually been to France, I never thought I'd say this, but these baked goods are even better than many of the bakeries I visited in Paris. That's a bold statement, but this place truly earns it! read more

I'm so torn. The croissants are delicious. And we tried a few different pasties. All good. However, the food was seriously lacking. We got the ham and butter baguette and fries. The ham was flavorless and the baguette had almost no butter on it, we even opened it up to check if it was even on there because we couldn't taste it at all. There was a very small smear of butter. Now I'm not sure if this is a mistake or this is how they make this, but for 20 dollars it was honestly a terrible sandwich. The oddest part was the burnt French fries that came with it. These were clearly not fried, but either toasted in an oven or an air fryer. They were burnt, hard as can be and super dry with zero salt. Again, this is our first time here, so whether there were issues in the kitchen or this is the standard for the food I just don't know. But I do know based on looks alone whoever packaged this definitely should have known better than to give a customer fries like this. I will say that the garlic aioli they sent with the fries was insanely good and since the fries were inedible we put it on the sandwich and it actually helped make the sandwich edible. 5 stars for the pastry, but honestly 1 star for the food. Met in the middle and gave it an overall 3. We'll try one more time and if this was a one off I'll update my review. read more

It has been a few months since this wonderful delicious place opened. I've tried many of their pastries and they are out of this world. Best quiche I've had in my life. I have to limit myself to once a week because I have no self-control when I go there I just buy everything. The owners are delightful and amazing chefs the people who take your order and wait on you are kind and wonderful and helpful. I hear people come by all the time speaking French with the owners and staff, so excited they're here. This is a wonderful addition to Redlands and I highly recommend you go as soon as possible and then return many many times thereafter. read more

I've been so excited about a real French bakery in town. So happy that it landed in the Redlands Public Market. The owner was so friendly and knowledgeable about his craft. They weren't pushy to sell anything and gave me time to devour all their goodies with my eyes. Please purchase your baked goodies from this bakery instead of another place inside the market that tries to sell what other vendors are selling to compete. read more

" Mon cœur joyeux se livre ! " Seriously, this place makes me want to sing a love song !! The owner, and chief pâtissier, introduced himself while we were deciding and assured us that he imported all his baking ingredients - flour, butter, milk, butter he didn't have to tell me. The croissants au beurre were already gone by the time we ordered, so I settled for a chocolatine. M. Le Pâtissier noted that, while most pâtissiers only put one bar of chocolate in their pain au chocolat, he makes his with 3. Now, I always judge a patisserie/boulangerie by its viennoiseries : épreuve réussie! Full marks! This chocolatine was better than most I ever had in France - or anywhere ! Immaculate, uncountable layers of laminated pastry, still delicious even in the afternoon. I wanted to cry. But it didn't eclipse the sandwiches on perfectly baked baguettes. I had The Raclette with delicious ham and cheese. My spouse ordered a full baguette (we traded halves) with prosciutto, Brie, lightly dressed greens, and fig jam. It's been ages since I was so thrilled with a sandwich lunch, even the fries were fresh cut and cooked. Served with a savory aioli! So, the pastries: we had to take a walk, get coffee before we could cram more sugar. I was on pins and needles the whole time. Oh and these were worth the wait!!! I don't like cake - because it's rarely like THIS. The sponge of this tarte tropézienne might as well have been a cloud on my tongue ! The custard had the lightest taste of orange flour syrup. So creamy. The crust was just dark enough. The whole combo of cream, sponge and crust... Exquis ! Oh but the mille feuilles, might as well rename his " mille délices " ! Flaky pastry crust, rich crème pâtissière, immaculate chocolate pattern on top. Such a generous piece too - enough for two. The place is even decorated like the classic streetside café. Probably the nicest place to sit at Redlands Public Market. " Si tu n'étais pas là Comment pourrais-je vivre? Je ne connaîtrais pas - Ce bonheur qui m'enivre! " read more

Found this petite gem in the Redlands Public Market. French bread and pastries were legit! They bake their own bread and dessert using premium ingredients from France. The flavor and crust on their paninis are amazing and the garlic aioli is a garlic lover's dream. The raspberry macaron is a must try! The service was great! Will definitely be back. Très bon! read more

After being disappointed with dinner at the public market, we stumbled into Maison la Jolie. I have spent a lot of time in France and Switzerland and I have to say this place is great. The owner Olivier anti his staff really knows how to treat his customers. Everything looks so incredible and the prices seemed very reasonable. We bought about six different things last night and on our way up the mountain to big Bear we munch on an eclair, some kind of brioche cake, which is amazing, and some French baguette. This morning we just had a pan chocolat add it too is amazing. We did get some bacon quiche, which we cannot wait to try tonight for dinner. We have a real estate office in Big Bair so it is a bit of a drive, but can't wait to go back and try their French onion soup and everything else on their menu read more

Butter croissant: dry, not flaky, nice butter flavor though. lemon gateau: barely a lemon taste, cake was flavorless but moist, which would work if the lemon flavor was there -- nevertheless, disappointing. Pistachio cream doughnut was awful; dough was borderline raw and dense and the cream flavorless. Purchased other pastries but couldn't remember their names nor were they memorable. I find that the ideas are there but poorly executed (great customer service, though), and given the low culinary standards of the inland empire they will do fine, but I won't be back. :/ read more

Run, don't walk, to this amazing legitimate French Bakery. Everything looks beautiful in the case and tastes even better than it looks. Saw a social media post about this place so went for lunch. Lunch was generous in portions and thoroughly delicious, so much so that we purchased some pastries to take home to try. These, too, were outstanding. Service was extra friendly and informative. Inland Empire was in dire need of exactly what Maison La Jolie is artfully and tastefully creating for us. It is clear that quality of their offerings is important to them, and the absolute best ingredients are being utilized. Tastebuds don't lie when it comes to real butter, superior olive oils, etc. I will note that parking is not the most convenient for Redlands Public Market, where Maison La Jolie is housed with other eateries, and worry that this will negatively affect their bottom line. VERY glad I took extra effort to get there, but concerned others won't. Parking aside, DO seek them out, you will enjoy every scrumptious bite! read more
