Nice place for a cup of coffee and a treat. Tried the two items with the sausage (hot dogs) in them...a big "no go" for me. Just not my taste. My wife's croissant pastry was delicious, by the way. I think if you stick with the sweet treats you will be okay. Self serve your own food, which works for this place. Cashier at checkout wasn't too friendly but wasn't rude. Bright and welcoming place but not cheap. $62 to feel a bit underwhelmed. read more

Finally, Paris Baguette is open in Charlotte!! Despite its French name, this is a huge chain of Korean bakeries that's been rivaling Tous Les Jours (yet another French-inspired, French named Korean bakery chain)...and been around for YEARS around the world (since 1988!). Can't believe it took this long for these bakeries to make their way to Charlotte. I, for one, have given up waiting...and have been enjoying Tous Les Jours and Paris Baguette (and several other Korean bakeries) in other US cities for many years. Though unknown in these parts, Korean bakeries are huge in Asia, and metro cities around the world. Still, am glad it finally hit the Queen City...better later than never??? Somehow I was expecting a much bigger layout (like the one in Duluth!), but this one will do...as it has plenty of pastry-plus selection. To see their full selection, I suggest getting there earlier in the day...they go fast! Not only does this location carry a good selection puffy pastries, they also have a good deli selection. So I stocked up on a variety of pastries, as well as sandos to bring home. In addition to a few fruity pastries, we tried the Turkey & Avocado Baguette, Egg Salad Sandwich and Tuna Salad Sandwich...and they were all DEE-Lish! Just like all the pastries, all of their deli items are super-fresh...made in-house! I also tried their Iced Matcha Latte...and I found it a tad too sweet. Think I prefer Tous Les Jours' version of that. In any case, I'm an absolute Whore when it comes to puffy pastries, so am so glad we have these bakeries in town...at last! read more

This is a South Korean French inspired franchise. Service: absolutely awful. Slow, inefficient and they seem to be short on employees. There's people working but they are doing everything else but getting customers checked out. Customers come to the cashiers not knowing what to order. Food: mediocre at best. I was expecting fresh pastries and products and instead the pastries tasted like they were a day old. The stations were all empty and it was 2:30pm in the afternoon (prime time). The strawberry cake was good but that was about it. Atmosphere: it is actually nice, location is nice, but it is a confusing method and nobody is there to explain how it works. Will not return and do not recommend driving a long distance to come here. I drove an hour to get here and I was completely disappointed. Go to the Brazilian bakery Brazilian Eats and Treats in Ballantyne for a substantial better experience. read more

I am glad that Charlotte finally has Paris Baguette, i had great experience in their location at New York and Duluth area before. Charlotte has the same excellent service as the other locations. All the pastries tasted great and will back for more. The only thing is flow of the cafe seems off, it is because it is overwhelming with customers, whenever Charlotte got new opening it seems to be way too busy. Another thing is there are not enough staff to clean tables and keep the seating clean. I know that they will fix this problem once the opening period pass. Happy to have them here in Charlotte read more

Well I had high hopes but will continue to drive to SouthPark for my French-Asian bakery experience. The storefront is esthetically pleasing with cozy French bakery vibes. Perfect spot to journal and grab an expresso. There are rows and rows of beautiful treats, both savory and sweet. For me that's where it ends. All baked goods range from approximately $4.75 each and up. The flavors, textures, and flavors just did not wow me. Purchased: $27 total spent for 6 pastries -Croissant doughnut (filled with cream) -Powdered cream filled -Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish -Strawberry lemon filled Croissant -Chocolate Croissant -Sugar Donut (cream filled) Would recommend them adding cream filled on the less obvious pastries, as I am not a big cream filled doughnut fan. The cream has a weird aftertaste and most of my pastries had a gummy undercooked texture. The final lasting impression was the lack of cream filling in an expected cream filled sugar donut. read more

The pastries are really good and the concept of the grab and go is really cute, the pricing is a bit steep with pricing between $3.75-$10.50 per pastry, sandwich or cake. The macchiato is ok, I've had better, but it is worth a try, to me it was a bit burned/ smoky tasting. The service is indeed self service with the full staff behind the counter making beverages. The location is a cute corner walk up and in the most pleasant location. Overall, I suggest giving it a try. read more

This South Korean franchise with the French name has been rapidly growing across America and now has a bakery in Charlotte. Sound complicated? Not really. Asian pastries have long been European and American influenced so you'll find a healthy fusion, both sweet and savory, at Paris Baguette. I've now been at several of these across the country. It may be my imagination but the selection now appears to a bit more Americanized than I recall. Perhaps that's to be expected. While I've always loved red bean pastries I found only the filled rice donuts on this visit. There were plenty of other options, though. I especially enjoyed the Biscoff cookie butter donut. People have remarked about the poor service and housekeeping at this location. I found no such issues, even the restroom was pristine. Let's hope these were simply start-up bobbles; service certainly remains an ongoing challenge in today's work environment. I arrived about 10:30 and there was a large selection of pastries and sandwiches with more being made. I'm wondering when the photos showing empty cases were taken? If they were late in the day I'm sorry but that's to be expected in nearly every popular bakery. I enjoyed my lunch at Paris Baguette. Check it out! read more

I have mixed feelings about this location. I love Paris Baguette, they have good coffee and pastries. But the cleanliness of the store is as important as the quality of the food. There were several employees at the store but no one cared about cleaning the place. Tables were dirty, I cleaned my own table. The floor was dirty, the garbage bins were overflowing. I hope management makes improvements and will address this type of issues promptly. No complains about the food or the service, but again, food establishments should be clean. read more

Just delicious flaky sweet pastries every time!! And the variety is very good! I hope that eventually they will open a few more locations in Charlotte (and possibly Indian Trail) because I believe the franchise would do well in other areas as long as they maintain the same quality!! read more

I loved, loved, loved the strawberry-pistachio bombolone! Heavenly! It was light and had about an inch of cream inside that was not too sweet --- it was sooo good! I also had a Dubai chocolate mochi donut - it was good but the bombolone really knocked my socks off. While I didn't get it, they carry Lavazza coffee, which is excellent coffee. Their sandwiches are absolutely huge though I didn't try those either. I ordered a matcha tea that they couldn't provide because they were out of matcha. This place is definitely pricey but Is hugely popular - there were plenty of people going in and out the whole time I was there. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. I'm still thinking about that bombolone and how I could've easily eaten three! haha read more

We were anticipating Paris Baguette opening here in Charlotte! One of favorite bakeries. Make sure you come early because theo stuff goes fast. Man everytime we come here all the bakery items were great. We tried some cookies today also and man were they nice and moist. Some of the best macadamia nut cookies ever. We also tried one of their new item. The Dubai chocolate tart will update one we tried it out. We were sad that they were out of the Dubai Matcha Latte. Come check them out it's a nice spacious space with a bright vibrant scene! read more

So happy this spot has finally opened! A nice open space with some cafe seating outside too. Definitely a great addition to Rea Farms. They have a lovely variety of sweet and savory pastries, some gorgeous cakes, and plenty of beverage options. You select your pastries and put them on tray, and then you take them up to the register to pay. Both pastries we tried were tasty; I wish I'd gotten more! They just opened yesterday and were busy, but very smooth operation. The owner seems really nice as well. read more

This is an extremely difficult review to post considering how long I've been anticipating the opening of this location in Rea farms. I have been here 4x this week alone and I'm simply blown away by the fact that the goods aren't available as late as 845am! It's a bakery, not a just in time desert spot. This is the first bakery I walk into 3 consecutive times before 9am and there simply ain't much to go with. It's extra disappointing because the menu of offerings is vast. If they can't handle 13 items they definitely shouldn't be offering more than 40. Appears they need a ton of help on the production side of the house. On a positive note, the front of the house staff have all been amazing and the atmosphere is clean and welcoming. Everything I have tried so far has been perfectly executed. Here's to hoping they can fix the shortfalls sooner rather than later. read more

NOT DRY AT ALL so far. Nice little setup with European theme but familiar Asian style cakes and mochi donuts so hmm. I like the woven black and white chairs. The baked goods were off to the side for self service in which you grab a tray, parchment sheets, and a tong. The cakes are up front for an associate to help. Baked goods range $2.99 to about $6. Cakes slices $7-$9 and large cakes about $45-$50 (about 6 servings). I grab the creme filled donuts ball/hole $2.99 and the lemon croissant donut filled with cream cheese. I caved and ate the donut hole that night. It was chewy and just a bit of cream inside. I would have expected a bit more cream but that's okay. Next day, about afternoon I dug into the lemon cream cheese croissant. I couldn't resist eating the entire thing. It was still soft and chewy. I like the cinnamon sugar. For the value and taste, I am very pleased with my purchase. That braided cinnamon sugar donut looked so good yesterday. If they have pecan encrusted breads, they'll win over my mom. I plan to revisit and sign up for rewards! They have locations in Raleigh area and other states. Service was friendly at checkout. Restroom clean and tidy. read more

Was so looking forward to trying this new spot ~ I even scoped out the menu ahead of time to pick which sandwich I'd order. Except there is no ordering. All the sandwiches are premade and stored in a refrigerated case. They were out of my top choice so I picked an egg and cheese sandwich, which needed to be heated. Well, now I know. A reheated egg and cheese sandwich is not good. I will say the pastries were abundant and excellent. So five stars for the sweet items and three for the savory. read more

So many delicious pastries to choose from all freshly made. Coffee is also really good. Hard to find both around here at the same place. Indoor and outdoor seating read more

Great pastries when they have them in stock. Go early if you want to have a better selection otherwise you'll miss on a lot of their best items. read more

I had the biscoff donut and it was soooo heavenly. The only thing that I didn't like was how cold they kept the inside. Luckily, it was a sunny day so I sat outside which made me feel like I was in Paris. read more

It smelled good in there. That's about it. I went there twice, first time no croissants were available. Second time...... The flattest chocolate and strawberry croissant. Nothing like what I've seen them advertise. I wanted to try it, so I bought it but it was dry, barely had filling and was so small. For $5.99 per croissant, this place needs to do better. Not to mention, you go in and serve yourself .... The audacity to have a tip screen is insane. read more

The pastries were wonderful! Loved the black and white tile ambiance! We first walked around the display cases to see what they had. We then grabbed a tray, pastry paper and a utensil to pick up the pastries and set them on our tray. There was a line to pay but it went smoothly. Ordered a coffee which was delicious. The staff very friendly. Busy place with lots of conversations amongst guests, with seating mostly full inside and out, as to be expected since recently opened. Will be back! read more

This place is very cute! I love the atmosphere and the seating outside where you can enjoy the outdoors. Pastries are fresh and good when there is enough displayed! Again it's a bakery and it opens till 9 pm but when we walk in at 6 pm there's barely any pastries left! My biggest issue/ concern are the flies jnside the food cases! It should have an air curtain/wall so nothing goes in the store. read more

Great iced latte - good coffee used for sure. The original cronut was nice but I would love to see more orange zest in the filling. It was a little bland. The cheese tart was a nice subtle bite. Husband said the coffee cronut was the best donut that he's ever had. Location is cute and has great ambience. read more

Tried to use my coupon but the cashier redeemed my points and didn't want to or know how to reverse the transaction and re-process.

I bought a chocolate cake for my daughter-in-law's birthday. It was delicious! An 11-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy said it tasted like heaven. Mia, the woman who owns this shop, is a culinary genius. read more

Been waiting for this location to open and I'm so glad it finally did! Love their almond croissants, king donuts and fruit pastries. Their sliced milk bread is a must for morning toasts too.
