    Charming French cafe and bakery in Clifton. Originally, we planned on getting some pastries. However, when we arrived in the morning they had lunch service before noon so we ordered lunch. The staff and service were really good overall. Cafe has a quaint setting and French decor inside and fresh herbs planted outside with a cute poem. Coffee, croissant and sweet pastry (financier) were really good; the croque madame and omelette uses fresh ingredients with a basic salad. Prices were on the high side however, it's worth a visit if you want a taste of France in Clifton.

    A nice and cozy ambiance, I can only assume this feels like a cafe in France would. I don't know much about french food, but the omelette, croissant, and pastries were of a higher quality than anything short of a michelin star reataurant and tasted simply amazing. The service, however, was not very good. Our waitress rarely returned to the table, only once refilling our small water glasses. They brought us the wrong side, and considering their menu is rather short and our order was quite simple, this didnt make much sense. They dont have much seating available, only about 10 tables total, and when we arrived 3 tables were already seated and dining. While others arrived and were seated after we had placed our order, they still took a long time for our food to be served, and considering they got 2 tjings wrong in our order we had to wait evwn longer for them to correct it. Finally, when leaving, I was completely ignored at the counter while waiting to order a few pastries to go. Being busy is understandable, but at least an aknowledgment would have gone a long way.

    Unfortunately this place was not my favorite. My friends really enjoyed it but personally I don't think I'd come again. My sandwich was good but nothing special. However, their salad was delicious and some of the staff was very nice.

    Fresh ingredients, friendly service and charming ambiance We came Sunday around noon and there were several available tables. It is a tight space so if you have a big party, try to make a reservation. They have several outdoor cafe tables as well. Ratatouille tasted like it was fresh from the vegetable garden. The quiche was rich with a delicate crust. Pastries were delicious! The croissant muffin was my favorite.

    Everything is great! The ambience, the food, the service! Even the chefs would come out to check on you! Everything we ordered is scrumptious. Their wine selection is well picked. All pastries are delectable and yummy! It's a great lunch date area, a cute friend meet-up spot or a quaint coffee break in the Clifton location!

    Highly recommend this simple and quaint cafe for a cozy meal with high quality ingredients and preparation. It's like dining at your fancy aunt's house. We purchased some items out of the pastry case (apple turnover, leek croissant, blueberry cream cheese croissant) and all were perfect in terms of texture and flavor. The entree items were all exceptional; full of flavor and prepared with precision. My only regret was that I came too early and would not be able to enjoy the lunch items such as coq au vin. I shall return :)

    Lovely place! We had an amazing experience with friendly service and delicious meal. We went there on a Saturday morning for a brunch menu and everything was tasty. We also got some pastries and cakes to go and it was one of the best cakes I've ever had! I would love to go back for their dinner menu as well. Reservations are recommended.

    Authentic French cuisine! Service was excellent as well, we did not have reservations, but the friendly staff accommodated us quickly. The ambiance is a cute bistro and I can't wait for warmer weather to sit outside soon. We had theFrench onion soup, which was prepared in a lighter style and more authentic than the dark soups you ate probably use to in the US versions. Highly recommend coming here and grabbing a freshly made pastry. They go quickly!

    Had lunch here on a Saturday -- cozy restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Our server was kind and polite. We also had the opportunity to meet the Chef! Very sweet and you can tell how much joy it brings him to see folks enjoying their meals. My friend and I shared 3 dishes together (captioned in picture). Everything was delicious but my favorite had to be the Croque Monsieur and the salad that came with it. It was so savory! We also had a cup of Cafe creme. Highly recommend and we'll definitely be back!

    First time to Bolivar Bread Bakery and what a treat this spot is. The smell of bread when you walk…read morein is one of the best ways to welcome you. Fresh baked bread is on the rack when you walk in with many choices of breads (so many sourdough offerings ) and other baked goods such as cinnamon rolls, scones, shortbread, coconut macaroons, pepperoni rolls, etc. We arrived around noon on a Saturday and had plenty of choices. I was interested in their basic sourdough - two sizes available. The smaller ones were still too warm to slice, so I opted for the larger loaf. It's deceiving just how large this loaf is when it's on the rack, but sliced and bagged it was almost the length of my arm! And very reasonably prized at $13. They come in a freezer bag too! I also learned pepperoni rolls are one of the WV state food and this establishment won best pepperoni roll 4 times, so we tried those as well. So very good - it was a pretzel roll with prepperoni inside. We were lucky enough to get 2 or their 4 remaining cinnamon rolls. The lady helping us said they are worth every calorie and she was not exaggerating one bit! We took a bite of them in the parking lot before we left and I walked back in for the last two to take home and freeze. (Sorry for those after me!). They also offer local and delicious sounding jams, cheese, cheese, milks, and some little trays of cheese that would be perfect for an impromptu picnic with one of their pull apart baguettes. They also offer beverages in a cooler case. Super friendly team working there with absolutely high quality and delicious items. Definitely check them out if you visit Harper's Ferry or surrounding areas. I'm sure anyone local also knows how special this place is. Next time I'm back in that area, I'll definitely work Bolivar Bread Bakery into my plans! (There is some (limited) street parking out front and a small parking lot in the back of the building.)

    The focaccia bread was fantastic and reasonably priced . Loved the cinnamon raisin sourdough…read morebread! Nice people and great service. Cute shop and a great quick stop for a lunch or treat .
