    Establishment appears to be new, with limited seating; however extremely clean. Freshly made pastries and coffee.; the baklava and cannolis were very flavorful and fresh. The staff extremely friendly and courteous.

    Heard about this place on social media. Somehow the bakers are associated with the now closed yiayias bakery which I miss! So had to try it. The bread is just as delicious as Yiayias bakery, service very friendly and the kourambiedes were some of the best I've had lately. Delicious! Need to return to try more things

    I was one of those people that was saddened by the closing of Yaya's Bakery in Astoria a few months ago. So when I heard that that the same owner/baker has opened a new bakery, I made sure to go and support them on their first day of business. This new spot is much cozier and brighter. And the pastries all looked amazing. I ended up getting a half pount of Amygdalota ($12.50) and a slice of Nutella Baklava ($4.75) The owner was so incredibly kind and welcoming. She threw in a few pastries in my bag for free! She said that they were nearing closing time so she wanted to give some on the house for me to try. How kind is that?! When I got home I saw she gave me two muffins (chocolate and berry), a sesame bread and chocolate croissant. I can't wait to eat these! The Amygdalota (Greek sytle almond cookies) were delicious. They were so light, soft and chewy but with a crunchy exterior. The Baklava was rich and sweet. I don't usually lean toward overly sweet pastries but I liked this one. The flaky phyllo doug and chopped nuts went well with the sweet filling. Malu is a welcome addition to this neighborhood. I hope more people support them.

    Great new bakery find. The chocolate croissants are great. The owner I think is the same from Yaya bakery I haven't been there but sounds like a popular one. Tons of baked goods, it's a Greek bakery Café. Nice place to stop location near Steinway subway. Prices are reasonable I haven't tried too many of their pastry, but the ekmek was good. I have to go back and try some of the other things. I had an eclair once, that was good too. Mostly stopped in for breakfast muffins or croissants in the morning, and these are good. Would definitely go back next time I'm walking in the area.

    Latte and Galaktoboureko - absolutely delish!

    The service was vey nice. The spinach square slice was fresh. I finally found a place I can come too. The taste from Ya Ya Bakery from Astoria is here.

We never applied any refund in any food store. We never appied refund in this fucking terrible store! I ask you show the evidence of the "applied refund" here. And we still have gift card bought here, now they do not allowed us to buy here. I ask you investigate this and apologies. This is disgusting! Edited: Contacted the customer service team, after about 10 days still not receive any response, this is "IMPRESSIVE"! I also find that I can not find my review on Google map, so I rewrite this here again.

    stopped into Paris Baguette the other day and it's exactly what you want from a chain like this…read more Not pretending to be artisanal, but still hitting a solid level of quality. I grabbed a ham and cheese croissant and a strawberry soft cream cake. The croissant was actually flaky with a decent butter flavor, not dry or bready like a lot of chain spots. The ham wasn't cheap-tasting either, which I half expected. The strawberry cake was light and not overly sweet, more whipped cream than sugar bomb, which made it easy to finish without feeling gross. Also tried their iced latte. Nothing fancy, but it wasn't burnt or watery, which honestly already puts it above a lot of similar chains. What stands out is consistency. You can walk into almost any location and know exactly what you're getting. Display is always stocked, everything looks clean, and the ordering process is quick even when it's busy. It's not a destination bakery, but that's not the point. It's a reliable, better-than-average stop when you want something quick that still feels a little elevated.

    Even though I like supporting, small, independent businesses, this franchise location is very…read moreconvenient and always stocked with fresh pastries foods, & cakes. The staff is really nice and easy-going. Also, the young (I think) 2nd Gen owner (very cool seeing the culture carried on) is there a lot. Everything is freshly baked and a good portion. Even the sandwiches and salads in the packaged food case look really good. I've had the custard cream bun, hotdog garlic roll, & a egg, ham & hash brown roll (wasn't a huge fan, the hash brown doesn't stay crispy). I've tried the Portuguese egg tart (Pastel de Nata) & that wasn't so great - reminded me of the egg tarts from Aldi, sweet bland filler custard. The staff can heat the pastries up for you, but it might take at least two rounds for larger items. Highly recommend the round fried rice flour/mochi doughnut, soboro bao (the peanut butter crust-topped bun) & if they have, a coffee/mocha shell-topped bao. You can't go wrong with a Korean chiffon cake slice - not too sweet, and light as air buttercream. Not sure if the strawberry cake is based off of Japanese strawberry (birthday) cake. I've never had their drinks, so don't have a review about them. I don't get the impression that the drinks are the strength of the café. Paris Baguette is a chain from Korea. I think their cafés in Korea are a lot bigger and very nice/comfortable, the US version is a more minimal and quick service kind of set up. For $4 -15 you can get a decent pastry, sandwich, or salad which is a great option for the area, LaGuardia Community College students & hotel guests nearby.

    Its hard to find a solid bakery nowadays in NYC. A lot of the really good ones have closed down,…read moreand it makes it really difficult to find a quality bakery without all the fluff. The 7 layer cake is a beautiful work of art and the taste marches. Its a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting topped with strawberry and chocolate mouse. Note to the wise, don't make the same mistake I did. Always look at your cake once it is placed in the box. The display cake looked good, then I did not get to inspect the cake before it was placed in the box. Once I arrived home, I saw that the top part of the cake had a dent in the mouse and strawberry covering which made it look messy. It was an embarrassment to present it as such so I improvised by using the mother's day signage to cover up the blip. When I called to speak with the location about it they dealt with it very professionally and were apologetic about the situation and offered a comp. It was such a relief to have customer service go right after experiencing that.

    TLDR: Surprisingly good vanilla lobster tail…read more Schmoop and I came here to check out the lobster tails, which is an Italian pastry we both love. We had low expectations, realizing it was in the middle of Times Square, assuming it would be a tourist trap like most places in Times Square. We were pleasantly surprised! It had really good crispness and delicious filling, which was vanilla forward (used to normal custard). Didn't try anything else except the lobster tail. They have other flavors as well -- we will try the Nutella flavored lobster tail next! AMBIANCE: Super small place (expected) so it's take away only. Would come back if I'm in the area again, although I tend to avoid due to crowds.
